Admission Trt\- Southern College of Pharmacy Performance Given in Grove of Pines at Foot of Hill Near Meriden. MERIDEN, N. H., Sept. 15 -Seated in a charming grove of pines. Presi dent Wilson was a deeply interested spectator at the pastoral masque "Santuary," in which his youngest daughter. Eleanor, played the leading part. The playette, by Percy Mac- kaye. the poet, was a protest against the slaughter of birds for millinery purposes. The President was a guest of Miss Eleanor and her sister Margaret. A lyrical prelude to the masque was sung by Miss Margaret. But upon the younger sister devolved dramatic necessities which indicated ehe is possessed of rare stage talent. With soft, appealing tones Miss Wilson, as Ornis. the bird spirit, pleaded with the hunter to forsake his rifle. The sharp crack of a gun, followed by a midden fall of Ornis. marked the climax of the piece. Wounded and robbing. Ornis is con soled by the fauns, poet, dryad and naturalist, who In the end convert the hunter to a birdlover. The President's daughter spoke her | lilies with careful expression, and was | enthusiastically applauded. Are You Sick, Diseased, Nervous, Run Down?

Declaring that he saw but little which was worth replying to in the attack upon him by the Rev. Lincoln McConnell at the Baptist Tabernacle Sunday night. Mayor Woodward de clined to discuss the charges Mon day morning He will write McCon nell a personal letter, however, and his words contained the intimation that this letter probably will be cool but very c lear. ‘‘T will write Mr. McConnell a per sonal tetter, then possibly he will know* more of what he is talking about," said the Mayor. "I may also make a statement for the papers later in the day. but right now I set but little worth replying to. 'The only criticism i had to make of the police methods in connection with the spooning cases was in the instance where a couple had been kept at the police station all night and then the case against them dismissed by Recorder Broyles. Tf Broyles turned them loose, then cer tainly they must have been as in nocent as babes, for he is not in the habit of releasing people who are guilty of even the slightest wrong- doing. " T also remarked in regard to the case of w’here a young man claimed that he had been unjustly fined in a spooning case, that I thought money derived from this case by the city was dirty money and should be re turned to the young man. I made this i-mark to Mr Colcord. "I do not think Mr. McConnell's at tack can be highly regarded In view of the public knowledge of the way the police have acted in these spoon ing cases.” McConnell expressed the opinion that the Mayor must be a fool to make the remarks accredited to him by the newspapers on the spooning arrests by the police department. ”1 was utterly astounded when I read of the Mayor criticising the po lice department for the spooning ar rests, said McConnell. "Either he is very foolish or incompetent and too ignorant to properly take care of the office held by him. "I want to put myself on record as favoring the vigorous prosecution of all such offenders us the c ouple which caused all the furore. Take it home to yourselves and *we if you would like for your daughter to be caught in a compromising position with a man in a public place. "The winds of dissension and crimo in Atlanta are being rapidly sown. Unless an Immediate stop is put to the vilifying of the police this city will most surely reap one great whirl wind of vice and crime." Women Pick Hobson For Heflin Debate WASHINGTON.
