Mr. Fsirchild waa appointed grand messenger for the Grand Lodge. A feature of Lymaa H. Howe's saov ing pictures, which will be shown in North opera house, on October 80, is that every picture k vivid with life, and authentic. Each picture, too, k accom panied by admirable aad ingenious sounds in unison with every action of tbe scene. The spectator sees actual life itself life of world-wide travel and world-wide interest in all its lights and shades. The program k a atudions blending of tbe humorous with the pa thetic, the educational with the amas ing; and all with a rapidity and precis ion that creates its own' demand for reg ular return visits. If you have never seen moving pictures that thoroughly pleased you, go and see Mr. Howe's masterful production. If you have seen what you considered pleasing, go anyway and see those that are infinitely better perfect aed steady, regardless of where or when you saw others. The committee appointed by President Phillips of the Commercial club, eonakt ing of Dr. C. D. Evans. L. G. Zinnecker. Sam Gsss, jr J. C. Echols and W. F.

Zinnecker were appointed a sub eommitteee to look over the by-laws from the various tows and select the best fea tures and incorporate them in the by laws of the old organization. As soon aa this committee is ready to report, a meeting of tbe club will be called and their report presented.

NIEWOHNER CTlPJn Oar Dan the Winner. In the shooting tournament held at Central Oitv last week. Dan Bray carri ed off the high honors. The Central City Nonperil gives the following ac count of the shoot: "One of the finest shoots ever held in this section of the country came off Monday in the presence of an interest ing crowd of spectators. The high wind that was blowing was anything but fa vorable for the markesmen. yet enough blue rocks was smashed to make a foun dation for a goodly stretch of cement walk. Twenty-seven sportsmen, mostly men of reputations ss good shots, par ticipated. There were a number of crack shotaJTrem,- abroad, whose work was at times spectacular, and they car ried off the highest honors, although this does not mean that tbe local boys did not set a good pace. Dan Bray, the state champion, was present with his trusty weapon and Captain Hardy was there also, so that even if tbe other participants had been eliminated the contest between these two would have been worth going a long way to see. The Captain Hardy was outclassed by a single point, however, although as an all-round shot he is hard to beat. The respective scores were: Out of 186 chances Bray got 158, Hardy 157. At the last regular meeting of Hose Company No. 1, W. E. Held was chosen for secretary of the company to till the vacancy caused by the resignation of F. L.Plath. George H.

'Honey's Boys" at the White House December 26 is a lyceum event to be re membered. It was the largest children's gathering in the home of the Presidents during tbe past sixty years.

SHAKESPEARE'S NAME. t The Grent Poet Illmself SpeUal It In Different Warn. i Our great poet Shakespeare spelled his surname in two ways viz, "gjhak spere" and "Shakspeare" In -writing the three signatures to his will, nojv at Somerset House. Besides these three there are two other authentic signa tures, of which the first, in the j con veyance of his Blackfriars property, is written 'Shakspere," and the second, in the mortgage deed relating to' the same property, has been interpreted both as "Shakspere" and "Shaksieare." "Shakspere" is the spelling of the al leged autograph In the British mu seum copy of Florio's Montaigne," but the authenticity of the signature is considered doubtful. The name or the poet's father occurs sixty-six times in the council books of Stratford; and is spelled in sixteen ways, the com monest form being "Shaxpere." Al most all references to the poet In the seventeenth century give the form "Shakespeare," which is used also on" tbe grant of arms In 150G, in the li cense to the players of 1C03 and In the text of all the legal documents relat ing to the poet's property. That the poet sanctioned this spelling is clear from its adoption in the "Venus and Adonis" of 1593 and the "Lucrece" of 1591, which were produced under his supervision. London Standard. THE SPANISH WOMAN. She Ih Benatlfal, Proad, Simple ana lladiantly Feminine. What women are more adorable, so proud, so simple, so radiantly feminine? As a type, the Spanish woman of the south is unique. She Is small and slen der, exquisitely proportioned, with tiny but beautifully shaped hands and feet. Her head, poised proudly on a torso of classical symmetry, Is small, and her hair is black and crisp, of the bluish lint peculiar to the raven. Her face is oval, such as Ituskin admired, finely chiseled, frank and childish; her. lips full, red and pouting; her nose slightly aquiline with nervous, quivering nos trils. Her eyes, almond shaped, dark, lustrous, pensive and passionate,? now flash open like globes of fire, now dreamily close as if in sadness. In her white lace shawl and the flowers of Spain in her hair she Is quitelirro sistible, yet no prouder creature ex ists, nor less coquettish a nature. J Her love' consumes her, and she would no more smoke a cigarette than she would play hockey or golf. She is simple as a bird, wayward and captious as a child; sincere, for she does not know what it is to be Insincere. When she loves she will die for you, but when she hates she will slay you with a glance as keen as any dagger. New York Mail. DIsconrteiqr. t If we inquire closely Into the com plaints of modern deterioration of plan ners in the lower classes we should find that the real sting does not lie in actual rudeness, but in the shock of receiving courtesy when respect was demanded.
