Speaks at Redpath
ChautauQua Thursday

Ruth Bryan Owen. wife of Major
Reginald Owen, NJ. c.. British
Royal Engineers) and daughter of
the American Commoner, William j.
Bryan, was the speaker at the eve
ming session of the Rcdpath Chau-
tauqua yesterday. The subject of
her lecture was Modern Arabian
knights" and under this alluring
caption. Mrs. Owen told a graphic
story of one of the most dramatic
episodes of the World War. the cap
ture OF Palestine. She used this in
teresting story as n background for
an earnest discussion of the World
problems.
Few women have had such an in
teresting and brilliant career
three years in Egypt and extended
travels in India and the Far East:
three years in the West Indies and
three years in London. Her busy
life has touched intimately the peo-
pie of many countries. During the
war she was nurse in Egypt and
the Far East Jerusalem fell and
the British forces marched through
the holy city. Mrs. Owen was there.
Mrs. Owen. although the daughter
OF william Jennings Bryan. has
proved her right to speak without
any assistance of relationships She
has her fathers poise and winning
personality and very much the same
kind of voice. and simple sincere
utterance.

the past few days and that they will
appear at this term of the court.
This information would apparently
be borne out by the large number of
indictments by the grand jury, which
returned 81 on Wednesday, AZ of
which were secret.
1t is known that Jasper Bumford
is now awaiting trial at the kenne-
bee County Jail because Of inability
to procure bail and the charge in
this case is thought to, be single
sale. Although he could mot give the
names of the men, Clerk Of Courts
Charles Jones said last evening that
several men were brought before
him on Thursday to arrange for bail.
These men were presumably arrested
upon these secret indictments.
Several others have already had
preliminary hearings upon various Ii
Quor charges and have been bound
over to the Superior court for hear
ing at the criminal term. Federal
men have been working in this VI
entity for some time in conjunction
with the county and city officials and
they have raided various places in
and about the city. They have also
procured evidence of single sale in
many more cases according to the
information which w&s received by
the Kennebec Journal last night. and
this information resulted in indict-
TnentS by the grand jury.

Queen Mary Makes Gift
To Fisk Jubilee Singers

Nashville. Tenn, Sept. 3 GA. P)-
a protrait of the late Queen Victoria
presented by the present Queen Of
England to Fisk University, and a
lair of silk stockings worn by Queen
Victoria and in need of darning, are
among the gifts which the Fisk Uni
Nersity Jubilee Singers have brought
lack to their alma mater from a con-
cert tour of England this summer.
The appropriateness of these Vic
toriana as gifts to the Oldest Negro
college in America is due to the fact
that the original group of Fisk Uni
versity Jubilee Singers sang for
Queen Victoria in the early seventies
and again in 1884, thus establishing
an international reputation for this
colored institution and for the reli-
gious spirituals and plantation songs
of the American Negro. The concert
tour just ended is the f1rst trip over
seas by the Jubilee Singers in 40
Years. 1t was made possible through
the generosity and cooperation CT
Joseph Ritter. Of Palm Beach and
London.
