BELA8CO SHOCKED CHICAGO ^ BY 8UINQ FAIRBANKS By Private Leased Wife. Chicago, July 16.—Mrs. Carter’s mar- rlngo has revived tho story of her first "angel** and the sad fate which he af terward encountered. It was In the midst of her succefa In the "Heart of Maryland" that David Delasco shocked Chicago by suing N. K. Fairbanks, millionaire manufacturer and Board of Trade operator, for $60,000 for dra matic lessons and stage culture given to Mrs. Carter. It then developed that aoon after her divorce she had gone to Mr. Fairbanks and requested that he assist her In her ambition to become an actress. He consented and made a contract with Delasco for stage tuition. He paid largo sums of money, and then he and tho fair pupil had a misunderstanding. The suit was not filed until several years later.

The market for "sitters" was glutted that afternoon, however, and there waa “e place for Jurgls. In all he had to •pend six nickels In keeping a shelter aver him that frightful day, and then It was just dark, and the station house would not be open until midnight! At the last place, however, there was a bartender who knew him and liked him, and let him doze at one of the tables until the boss came back; and also, as he was going out, the man gave him a tip—on the next block •here was a religious revival of some •ort, with preaching and singing, and hundreds of hoboes would go there tor the shelter and warmth. Jurgls went straightway and saw a %n hung out, saying that the door would open at 7:80; than he walked, j>r half ran, a block, and hid a while in a doorway, and then ran again, fhd ao on until the hour. At the end he was all but frozen, and fought his way In with the rest of the throng (at ‘he risk of having his arm broken egeln), and got close to the big etove. By x o'clock the place was so crowd' ft that the speakers ought to have heen nattered; the alslss were filled half-way up, and at the door men were parked tight enough to walk upon. There were three elderly gentlemen In black upon the platform, and a young lady who played the piano In front. First they sang a hymn, and then one of the three, a tall, smoo.th- •haven man, very thin and wearing black spectacles, began an address. Jurgia heard smatterings of It, for the reaaon that terror kept him awake— he knew that he snored abominably, »nd to have been put out Just then would have been like a sentence of death to him. The evangelist was preaching “sin and redemption," the Infinite grace of God and His pardon for human frailty. He was very much In earnest, and he meant well, but Jurgls, as he listened, found his soul filled with hatred. What did he know about sin and suffering— with his smooth, black coat and his neatly starched collar, his body warm and his belly filled, and money In his pocket—and lecturing mtn who were struggling for thslr Hues, men at th* death-grapple with (he demon powers of hunger and coldl This, of course, waa unfair; but Jurgls felt that these men were out of touch with the life they dlscusaed; that they were unfitted to solve Its problems; nay, they them selves were part of the problem—they were part of the order established that was crushing men down and beating them! They were of the triumphant and Insolent possessors; they had a Elegant Silver The excellence and popu larity of Maier & Berkele silver is due largely to the tasteful designs and artistic patterns we' carry in stock.

They were trying to save their souls—and who but a fool could fall to sss that all that was the matter with their souls was that they had not been able to get a decent existence for their bodies? At 11 the meeting closed, and the desolate audience filed out Into the snow, muttering curses upon the few traitors who had got repentance and gone upon the platform. It was yet an hour before the station house would open, and Jurgls had no overcoat and was weak from a long lllnee*. During that hour he nearly perished. He was obliged to run hard to keep hie blood moving at all, and then he came back to the station house end found a crowd blocking the street before the door! This was In the month of January. 1904, when the country was on the verge of "hard times," and the news papers were reporting the shutting down of factories svsry day. It was estimated that a million and a half of men were thrown out of work before the spring. So ell the hiding places of the city were crowded, end before the station bouse door men fought and tore each other Ilk# savage beasts. When at last the place waa Jammed and they shut the doors half the crowd was still outslds; and Jurgls, with his helpless arm, was among them. There wee no choice then but to go to a lodg- Ing house end spend another dime. It really broke his heart to do this, at half-past It o'clock, after he had wast ed the night at the meeting end on the street. He would be turned out of the lodging house promptly et 7— thev had the shelves which served as bunks so contrived that they could be dropped, end any man who was slow about obeying orders could be tumbled l °Thl* mu one day, end the cold spell lasted for fourteen of them. At the end of six deys every cent of Jurgls’ money was gons; and then he went out SYNOPSIS OF PREVIOUS CHAPTERS The story of “The Jungle,” Upton Sinclair's novel, which caused the goverhmont Investigation Into th* method* employed by the Beef Trust, has Its origin In an actual Paeklngtown romance. A simple-minded coterie of Lithuanians arrive In Chicago, seeking employment, and are conducted to Paeklngtown by a friend. Jurgls, a giant In strength. Is betrothed to On*. and ths first chapter tells of the wedding In all Its grotesqueness. After much tribulation the entire family obtains work In ths stockyards— alt but ona, who, Jurgls said, should never work. \ Tho terrible tale of tho slaughter houses Is told with almost revolting detail—the filth, the overworking of hands, the etrugglo to keep up with the pacemakers, Is all vividly depicted. The little family buya a house on the Instalment plan, only to find they have been swindled, ami Ona la forced to seek work to meet the actual living expenses nnd the Interest on the purchase contract, of which they lenrn too late. Just as Ona and Jurgls pay Marlja what thty owe her, Jurgls turns hla ankle nnd Is laid up for months. e. He becomes cross and savage with pain. Starvation ataros th* fanVty In th* tfic*.

He would sally forth from a saloon, and, after making sura there was no policeman In sight, would approach every like ly-looking person who passed him, telling his woeful story and pleading for a nickel or a dims. Then, when he got one, hs would dart round tbe corner and return to hla base to get warm; and his victim, seeing him do this, would go away, vowing that he would never give a cent to a beggar again. The victim never paused to ask where else Jurgls could have gone under the clecumstances—where he, the victim, would have gone. At the saloon Jurgls could not only get more food and bet ter food than ha could buy In any res taurant for th* same money, but a drink In the bargain to warm him up. Also he cbould find a comfortable seat by a fire, and pould chat with a com panion until he was as warm aa toast. At th* saloon, too, hs fslt at horns. Part of ths saloon keeper's business was to-offsr a home and refreshments to beggars In exchange for the proceed* of their foragings; and waa there any one else tn the whole city who would do this—would the victim have done It himself? Poor Jurgls might have been expect ed to make a successful beggar. He was just out of the hospital, and des- jerately slck-looklng, and with a help- ess arm; also he had no overcoat, and shivered pitifully. But, alas. It was again the rase of the honest merchant, who finds that the genuine and un adulterated article Is driven to the wall by the artistic counterfeit. Jurgls, as a beggar, was simply a blundering amateur tn competition with organised and scientific professionalism. lie waa Just out of the hospital—but ths story was worn threadbare, and how could he prove It? He had his arm In a sling—and It waa a device a regular beggar's little boy would have scorned. up with cosmetics, end had studied the art of chattering their teeth. As to his being without an overcoat, among them you would meet Vnen you could swear had on nothing but a trousers—so cleverly had they con ceated the several suits of all-wool un derwear beneath. Many of these pro fessional mendicants had comfortable homes, and families,' and thousands of dollars In the bank; some of them had retired upon their earnings, and gone Into the business of fitting out and doctoring other*, or working children at the trade. There were some who had both their arms bound tightly to thslr sides, and padded stumps In thslr sleeves, and a sick child hired to carry a cup for them. There ware some who had no legs, and pushed themselves upon a wheeled platform- some who had been favored with blind, ness, and were led by pretty little dog*. CHAPTER XXIV, In the face of -all his handicaps, Jurgls was obliged to make the price of e lodging and of a drink every hour death. Dey about In the arctic cold, his soul filled full of bitterness and despair, lie jaw the world of civilisation then more plainly than ever he had seen It be fore; a world In which nothing count ed but brutal might, an order devised by those who possessed It for the subjugation of those who did not. He waa one of the latter; and all out doors, all life, was to him one colossal prison, which hs paced like a pent-up V and tiger, trying one bar after another, finding them all beyond his power. Hs had lost In th* fierce battle of greed, end eo was doomed to be extermi nated; end ell society wss busied to see he did not steep* the sentence. Everywhere that ha. turned were pris on bars, and hostile eyes following him; th* w*ll-/ed, sleek policemen, from whose glances he shrank, and who seemed to grip their cluba more lightly when they saw him; ths saloon keepers, who never ceased to watch him while he was In their places, who were Jealous of every moment he lin gered after he hod-paid his money; the hurrying throngs upon Ih* street, who were deaf to hla entreaties, obliv ious of his very existence—and sav age and contemptuous when he forced himself upon them. They had their own affairs, and there was no piece for him among them. There we* no piece for him anywhere —every direction he turned his gese, this fact was forced upon him. Every thing was built to express It to him; th* residences, with their heavy walls and bolted doors, and basement win dows barred with Iron; the great ware- .. produ,,,, 0 f ((„ houses, filled with the \ whole world, end guarded by Iron shut ters end heavy gate*; th* banks with their unthinkable billions of wealth, all burled In safes and vaulta of steel. And then one day there befell Jur gia the one adventure of hie life. It waa late at night, and he had failed to get the price of a lodging. Know was falling, and he had been out so long that he was covered with It, and was chilled to ths bone. He was working among the Ihsatsr crowds, fit ting here and there, taking large chances .with th* police, In Tils des peration half hoping to be arrested. When he saw a blus coat start toward Him, however, hie heart failed him. null, nunfTW, IIIIS unri msiivu nun, and he dashed down a eld* street end fled a couple of block*. When he stopped again he saw a man coming toward him, and placed himself In his path. "Please, sir," h* began. In th* usual formula, “will you plsas* give me th*. prlr* of lodging? l‘ve had an arm broken and 1 can’t work, and I've not a cent In my pocket. I'm nn honest workingman, sir, and I never begged before. It’n not my fault, sir”— Jurgls usually went on until ha was Interrupted, but this man did not In terrupt, end eo nt last he cam* to e breethlea* atop. The other had halted, and Jurgls suddenly notlcsd that he stood a little unsteady. "Whussat you eay7*' he queried suddenly, In a thick vole*. Jurgls began again, speaking more slowly and distinctly; before he was upon hi* shoulder, "Poor old chappie!" he said. "Been up—hlc— up—against It, hey?" Then he lurched toward Jurgls end the hand upon his shoulder became an arm about hla neck. "Up against It myself, ole sport," he said. "She's a hard ole world.” They were close to a lamp post, and Jurgta got a glimpse of th* other. He wee e young fellow—not much over eighteen, with a handsome boyish fee*. He wore a silk hat and a rich soft over coat with a fur collar, and he smiled at Jurgls with benignant sympathy. “I'm hard up, too, my goo* fren‘," h* said.
