Delphians En
joy an Evening
of Browning
Lewis and Clark Chapter Have Very
Fine Treat Afforded in Talk
by Rev. H. E. Sortor
From Tuesday's Tallv
Last evening Lewis and Clark Del
phian chapter met at the home of
Mr0-. C. C. Wesu-ott and enjoyed a
most pleasant meeting and one that
was filled with mary interesting
facts rs to the life and writings of
Robert Browning .one of the great
English writers of the Victoiian era
of England.
The meeting was under the lead
ership of Mrs. E. H. Wescott and
under the study topic of the meet
ing, "Browning." Rev. H. E. Sortor
was heard in a very fine discussion
of the poet and his works, the selec
tion, "Pippa Passes," being used is
the choice of the works of this great
great writer.
In Pippa, Browning gives U3 one
of the most delightful of his char
acters. Pippa, the optimistic, care
free, imaginative child is the very
epitome of the influence of good. Be
cause of her the difference between
right and wrong is strongly marked,
because of her faith she unknowingly
saves herself as well as others.
This faith of Pippa's is one of the
strongest, most evident attributes cf
her characters. She says:
All service ranks the same with
God:
If now, as formerly he trod
Paradise, his presence fills
Our earth, each only as God
wills
Can work God's puppets, best
and worst
Are we; there is no last or first
So the singing Pippa makes the
most of her one short holiday, and
touches all with whom she comes in
contact by the purity of her girl
hood, the joyouness of her freedom,
the gentleness of her spirit, and the
lack of jealousy for those more for
tunate in life. When she 6tarts out
she says: . .
I will pass each, and see their
happiness.
And envy none being just as
great, no doubt,
Useful to men, and dear to God
as they.
The Year at the spring
And the day's at the morn;
Morning's at seven;
The hillside's dew pearled;
The lark's on the wing;
The snail's on the thorn
God's in His heaven
All's right with the world.
Emerson says: I am a part of all
that I have met. and no other char
acter in literature snows more plain
ly the effect on one personality upon
others than does Pippa. Everyone
whom she passes during the day.
while she sings her songs, is affected
by her lovely personality, and be
come better because of her passing.
Pippa's love and faith are the
means by which she saves herself
the Monsignor is so overcome with
her song that he is appalled by the
fact that he had almost consented to
her ruin and ultimate death suggest
ed by the crafty Bluphocks. The lit
tle singing mill-worker who spent
her days winding silk, in the one
dav cf freedom accorded her, made
so deep an impression upon the lives
of those who heard her song that
their whole lives were changed.
Surelv there is no more evidence
than this needed of the sweetness and
power of the personality of Pippa,
who believed so firmly that "God's in
his heaven, all's right with the
world."
It is hard to find any character so
appealing as the little millgirl whose
imagination and joy of living found
expression in songs so poignant as
to change the lives of those who
heard them. Her very presence was
noticed by those who passed, so dif
ferent was she from the ordinary
mill-workers.
Her cheerfulness, her insouciant.
joyous youth, her tenderness and
faith, all these were a part of Pippa,
and her life was destined to be one
of meaning but its beginning to its
end. Her one short day of freedom
gave her more honest joy than weeks
would mean to others considered
more fortunate in the eyes of the
world. But Pippa has something that
others do not an abounding trust
in the essential goodness of life.

REPEATS OFFENSE
On Monday night Officers Liber
shal and Pickrel discovered a man
reposing in the doorway of the form
er Johnson meat market on east
Main street and the stranger was
apparently in a stupor, produced,
judging by the odor, from an over
dose of the distilled extract of corn.
The police found it necessary to bear
the intoxicated Rip Van Winkle to
the city bastile to repose peacefully
and without harm to himself or
anyone else. Judge Graves heard the
case Tuesday afternoon, the prisoner
having slept off the effects of the
hootch and as the tale of the man,
who gave the name of Anderson,
was unfolded, the heart of the Judge
was touched and he gave him a fine
of $10 and costs and the voice of the
court was filled with emotion as he
bade the man go hence and sin no
more.
Last night as the officers were
patroling the main section of the city
they espied someone lying on the
bench that adorns the east side of
the building of "Peerless Ed." and
lo and behold it was Anderson. This
time the victim of the hootch was not
so far gone and was able with a few
aids by the police to reach the city
jail where he threw himself on one
of the downy pallets that the city
provides for the unfortunate and the
wicked alike.
What will happen to Anderson this
time at the hands of an outraged and
infuriated justice we tremble to
think, but it will be plenty.
