Special to The Georgian. Asheville, N. C., June 18.—The field day exercises of the Y. W. C. A. con ference. which were held on the lawn In front of the Kenilworth Inn Thurs. day, were attended by several hundred spectators. The delegates from |he different colleges, dressed In costumes representing flowers, w*re formed In a long line with their respective col. lege and city delegations. From the standpoint of costumes and beautiful women the display surpassed any ex hibition of the kind ever held at a Y. W. C. A. conference. Miss Mabel Cratty led the line of march. Miss Emily Stafford, of Atlanta, headed the gulf states delegations, and Miss Harvey, of Atlanta, acted as mas ter of ceremonies. AH the young ladles wore overskirts, cut so as to resemble the petals of a rose or other flowers, and had flowers In their hair. Each carried wreaths. The Savanrihh city delegation, com posed of a dozen pretty girls dressed in blue sailor suits, were among the most admired of the delegates. They carried oars and wore peanuts as ear rings. The Atlanta city-delegation was also very attractive. The young ladles were dressed In crimson and white, repre senting their association, and wore necklaces of firecrackers. Agnes Scott was represented by small delegation. There were three young ladles who carried a large S. I.” banner, and eang "Marching Thro' Georgia." The Lucy Cobb delegation of Oeor- gla carried several large college ban ners, and wore morning glories In their heir. They sang "Dear Old Lucy Cobb" and several other catchy songs. The delegation from the North Car olina State Normal School of Greens boro was the largest In the procession. There were about 40 young women In this body, dressed to represent clover. A banner of clover blossoms was a fea ture of this delegation. The delegation from Convene Col lege, South Carolina, though small, waa composed of a very artistically formed group of pretty girls, who sang with much lustiness their college yells. A delegation which created much favorable comment waa the body of young ladles representing the Mary Baldwin Seminary and the Randolph- Macon Women's College, of Virginia. The Tennesseeans, composed of Bsl- iftont Seminary, Nashville, the Univer sity of Tennessee, and the Knoxville, Nashville and Chattanooga City Asso ciations. were encircled by large wreaths of yellow Jaslmlne blossoms. Among the other delegations were: University of Alabama. Wlnthrope Col lege, Savannah, Ga., City Association, By Private Leased Wire. Chicago, June II.—Because his fear of water was -Tester than hi* fear of death, Max Mosxosynskl. 18 years old, lay down before an oncoming train yesterday, and the wheels crushed out his life. The lad was caught on th* Calumet river bridge at One hundred and for ty-fifth street by a swiftly moving freight train. A leap Of a few feet Into the river would have saved him. Ills father and a companion commanded the boy to Jump into the river, and thetn.-elves s.-t the e\imiplo. The boy crouched on the trestle, shivering pitifully, hesitated, and then deliberately lay down on the track be tween the rails. When the father and his companion climbed the bank of the river In safety, they turned and saw the trainmen striving to remove the ■mall crushed form from beneath the wheels. JOHND. FEARS ANARCHISTS; HAS A GUARD AT CHATEAU WHERE HE IS STOPPING By WILLIAM HOSTER. Siteclal Cable—Copyright. Complegne, France, June 18.—A guard stationed at tty> chateau every night since his arrival, reveal* th* fear of John D. Rockefeller that he may be attacked by anarchists or other evil disposed persona He also made a careful inquiry of Mayor Baltovese about a watch being kept on ex-crlmt- nals who might be dangerous. Mr. Rockefeller was greatly pleased by learning that Under the law Com- plegne being a palace town and a royal chateau being situated there, ex-con- victa are not permitted there under pain of Immediate arrest. This Is an ancient provision for the safety of roy alty. Through Dr. Blggar, the mayor has been Informed that his request for a donation for the poor will receive fa vorable consideration before Mr. Rockefeller leaves the town. The may or's attention to Mr. Rockefeller has brought on his head n bitter attack “The fatal course of the millions Is felt In this far-away French provincial town,’’ say* The Gasette. Then It ridicules the mayor for donning evening dress to call on Rockefeller at noon, and accuses him of misrepre senting Complegne by servility to the American billionaire. The people of Complegne, a cold blooded race," say* The Gasette, “pos sess In thslr walls the richest Inhabi tant of the world. A week ago John Rockefeller came, but there was no change In our normal life. We are not getting excited, though he seems of great Importance In free America, since Ita great newspapers send a Journalist who walks, rides and talks with him dally and sends the details by cable at great expense." Continuing, the paper tells of Rocke feller's horror of those who come ask ing money, and discusses with mock seriousness his stomach, with a side remark about the stomachs of the peo ple of Complegne affected by the mayor's conduct. The length of Mr. Rockefeller's stay Is still uncertain. He has told a friend that maybe he will stay a week, maybe three weeks. It all depends on his daughter's health.

Before the firm put the book on the market It assigned unbiased In vestigator* to verify the accusations made by Mr. Sinclair. These probe yp made a report which corroborated in every detail the expose of the author. They found that meat unlit for human consumption was being packed In cans and sold throughout the country. They found that so-called food, al most rank In-Its condition,'was being palmed oft on the public aa a nec- Mtary of life,'when In reality It was practically a poison. Reader* of this serial—launched as a novel, but now ranking a* a document Inseparable from the light for better conditions In the country- will have an opportunity to get Into Intimate acquaintance with the meth od* employed by the greateit packing houses In the world, and will be en-, staled to realize how monopoly can, under existing conditions, mulct the public and make profit out of commodities which ar* not only uzoltsz az a diet, but are positively Injurious. The story Is dedicated to the workingmen of America. THE JUNGLE UPTON By SINCLAIR. CHAPTER I. (Copyright, 1448, by Doubleday, Pag# * Co. All right* reserved.) It was 4 o'clock when the ceremony was over and the carriages began to arrive. There had been a crowd following all the way, owing to the exu berance of Marija Bercsynskaa. The occasion rested heavily upon MarIJa'a broad shoulders—It was her task to see that all things went In due form, sad after the best home traditions; snd, flying wildly hither and thither, bowling every one out of the way, and scolding and exhorting all day with her tremendous voice, MarIJs was too eager to see that others conformed to the proprieties to consider them herself. She had left the church last 01 all, and, desiring to arriv* first at the hall, had Isaued orders to the coachman to drive faster. When that personage had developed a will of hi* own In the matter, Marija had flung up the window of the carriage, and, caning out, proceeded to tell him her opinion of him, first In Lithuanian, Which h* did not understand, and then In Polish, which he did. Having tha advantage of her In altitude, the driver had stood his ground snd even ven tured to attempt to speak; and the result had been a furious altercation, which, continuing all the way down Ashland avenue, had added a new swarm of urchins to the cortege at each side street for half a mile. This waa unfortunate, for already there waa a throng before the door. The music had started up, and half a block away you could hear the dull ■broom, broom” of a .’cello, with the squeaking of two fiddles which vied With each other In intricate and altltudlnous gymnastics.. Seeing the throng, Marija abandoned precipitately the debate concerning the ancestors of her coachman, and, springing from the moving carriage, plunged In and proceeded to clear a way to the hall. Once within, ah* turned and began to push the other way, roaring, meantime, "Elk! Elk! Usdaryk-durla!" In tones which made the orchestral uproar sound like fairy music. ’ Z. Gralczunas. Paslllnksmlnlnnams darza*. Vynaz. Bznapsax. Wlnez and Liquors. Union Headquarter*”—that was the way the signs ran. The reader, who perhaps has never held much converse In the language of far-ofr Lithuania, will be glad of the explanation that the place was the rear-rooq! of a saloon In that part of Chicago known aa “back of the yards.” This Information Is definite and suited to the matter of fact; but how piti fully Inadequate It would have aeemed to one who understood that It was -JL ' — also the supreme hour of eratacy In the life of one of God’a gentlest crea- tures, the scene of the wedding-feast and the Joy-transflguratlon of little Ona Lukoasalte! She stood In th* doorway, shtpherded by Cousin Marija, brsathlssa from- pushing through the crowd, and in her happiness painful to look upon. There was a light of wonder In her eyes and her fids trembled, and her otherwise wan little face was fiushsd. She wore a muslin dress, conspicu ously white, and a stiff llttl* veil coming to her shoulders. There were llv* pink paper roses twisted In the veil, and eleven bright green rose leave*. There were new white cotton gloves upon her hands, and as she stood staring about her she twisted them together feverishly. It was .almost too much for her—you could see the pain of too great emotion In her face, and all the tremor of htr form. She waa so young—not quits sixteen— ‘and small for her age, a mere child; and she had just been married—and married to Jurgls*, of all men, to Jurats Ruifkus, he with th# white (lower In the buttonhole of his new black suit, he wltb the mighty shoulders and th* giant hands. •Pronounced Yoorghl*. Ona was blue-eysd and fair, whlls Jurats had gnat black eyss with beet ling brows, and thick black hair that curled In waves about hi* ears—In short, they were one of thoae Incon gruous and Impossible married couples with which Mother Nature so often wills to confound all prophet*, before and after. Jurats could take up a two- hundred-and-flfty-pound quarter of beef and carry It Into a car without a stagger, or even a thought: and now he stood In a far corner, frightened as a hunted animal, and obltgad to moisten his lips with hla tongue, each time be fore he could answer ths congratula tions of his friends. Gradually there was effected a sep aration between the spectators and th* guests—a separation at least sufficient ly complete for working puspoaea. There was no time during the festivi ties which ensued when there were not groups of onlookers In the doorways and the corners; and If any one of these'onlookers came aufllclently dose, looked sufficiently hungry, a chair i offered him, and h* waa Invited was i Combs of Exquisite Beauty Some in the plain sheen of the tortoise-shell, others ^Wlfnlly adorned with delicate tracery of gold, nnd ritlll others showing pearls or jewelled settings. We have the freshest fashion-fancies in these and all the other little belqngings that women want. Maier & Berkele. the feast. It was on* of the laws of the veeellja that no one goes hungry; and. while a rule mad* In th* foraats of Lithuania la hard to apply In tb* stock-yards district of Chicago, with Ita quarter of a million Inhabitants, still they did their best, and th* children who ran In from the street, and even the dogs, went out again happier. A charming Inforthallty was one of th* characteristics of this celebration. Th* men wore their hats, or. If they wished, they took them off, snd their coats with them: they at# when and where they pleased, and moved a* often as they pleated. There ware to be spsechea and singing, but no on* had to llaten who did not car* to; If he wished, meantime, to speak or sing himself, he waa perfectly free. The resulting med ley of sound distracted no one, save ered against one aide of hla forehead. In the oppaslle corner are two. tables, fill- Ing a third of th* room and laden with dishes and cold viands, which a taw of the hungrier guests ar* already munching. At th* bend, where sits ths brids, U> a snow-white cake, with an Eiffel tower of constructed decoration, with sugar roses snd two angel* upon It, and a generous sprinkling of pink and green and yellow esndlea. Beyond opens a door Into the kitchen, whera there Is s glimpse to be hsd of a range with much steam ascending from It, and many women, old and young, rush ing hither snd thither. In the romer to th* left sre the three musicians, upon a little platform, tolling heroically to make some Impression upon the hub bub; also the babies, similarly occu pied, and an open window whence the populace Imbibe* the sight* snd sounds and odors. Suddenly some of th* steam begins to advance, end, peering through It, you discern Aunt Elisabeth, Ona'* stepmother—Teta Elzblets, aa they call her—bearing aloft a great platter of stewed duck. Behind her la Kotrina, making her way cautloualy, staggering beneath a similar burden; ar * ’ .. and half a minute later there appear* old Grand mother Majauetklen*. with a big yel- low bowl of smoking potato**; nearly ** big as herself. Ho, bit by bit, th* feast take* form—t hert Is a bam and a dish of .sauerkraut, boiled rice, maca roni, bologna sausages, great idles of possibly slone ths babies, of which there w« were present a number equal to the total possessed by all th* guests Invited. There waa no other place for the babies to bar and so part of th* preparations for th* evening consisted of a collection of cribs end carriage* In one corner. In thee* th* babies slept, three or four together, or wak ened together, as the case might be. Those who were still older, and could reach the tables, marchsd about munching contentedly at meat bones and bologna sausage*. The room le about thirty feet square, with whitewashed walls, bare save for a calendar, a picture of a race hone, and a family tree In a glided frame. To th* right there la a door from th* saloon, with a few loafers In the door way, and In the corner beyond It a bar. with a presiding genius clod In ■oiled white, with waxed black mus taches and a carefully died curl plast- ng pitchers of beer. There I* also, not six feet from your back, tb* bar, where you may order all you please and do not have to pay for It. "Elkaz! Oralrzlan!” screams Marija Bercsyn- ■kaa, and fall* to Work hsraslf—for there I* more upon the stove Inside that will be spoiled If It be not oaten. So, with laughter and shouts and endless badinage and merriment, the guests take thslr place*. The young men, who for th* most part have been huddled near the door, summon their resolution snd advance; and th* shrinking Jurgfa Is poked and scolded to describe them? All this time they have been there, playing In a mad frensy—all of this scene muet be read, or said, or sung to music. It I* the music which makes It what It Is; It Is ths music which changes the place from th* rear room of a saloon In back of th* yard* to a fairy palace, a wonderland, a little corner of the high mansions of the sky. The little person who lead* this trio I* an Inspired man. Ills fiddle Is out of tune, and there 1* no rosin on hi* bow, but still he Is an Inspired man— the hands of the muses have been laid upon him. He plays like one pos sessed by a demon, by a whole horde of demons. Tou can feel them In, the air around about him, capering frenet ically; with their Invisible feet they set the pace, and the hair of the lead er of the orchestra rises on end, and hla eyeballs start from their sockets, as he tolls to keep up with them. Tamoszlus Kusxlslka Is his name, and he haa taught himself to play the violin by practicing all night, after working all day on th* “killing beds." He Is In his shirt sleeves, with a vest figured with faded gold horseshoe* and a pink-striped shirt suggestive of peppermint candy. A pair of mili tary trousers, light blue with a yellow ■tripe, serve to give that suggestion of authority proper to the leader of s bend. He I* only about 5 feet high, but, even so, these trousers are about 8 Inches short of th* ground. You wonder where he can have gotten them-»or rather you would wonder, If the excitement of being In hlz pres ence left you time to think of such things. For he Is an Inspired man. Every Inch of him Is Inspired—you might nl moat say Inspired separately. Hi etsmpe with hi* feet, hex tosses his head, he sways and awlngs to and fro; he has a wlsened-up little fare, Irre sistibly comical; and, when he exe cutes a turn nr a flourish, hla brows knit and his lip* work snd hlz eyelids wink—the very ends of his necktie bristle out. And every now and then he turns upon his companions, nod ding, signaling, beckoning frantically —with every Inch of him appealing. In behalf of the muses and there Tamoszlus mounts upsn a stool Now he Is In his glory, dominating the scene. Some of the people ere curing, some sre laughing and talk ing, but you will make a great mistake If you think there Is on* of them who dose not hear him. Ills note* are never true snd his fiddle busses on the low ones and squeaks and scratches on th* high; but those things they heed no more than they heed the dirt and note* and squalor about them—It Is out of thla material that they have to build thslr lives, with It that they have to utter their souls. And this Is their ut ternnee; merry snd boisterous, o mournful and walling, or pasalonat* Imploring, their ball. For they are hardly worthy of Tamoszlus, the other two members of the orchestra. The second violin Is a Slavok, a tall, gaunt man with black- rimmsd spectacles and the mute and K tlent look of an overdriven mule; responds to the whip but feebly, and then always falls back Into his old rut. The third man la very fat, with a round, rad, sentimental nose, and he plays with his eyss turned up to the sky end a look of Infinite yearn ing. He le playing a bass part upon Ms 'cello, and so the excitement Is nothing to him; no matter what hap pens In th* treble. It Is his task to saw out one long-drawn and lugubrious note after another, from 4 o'clock In the afternoon until nearly th* same and rebellious, this music ' Is their music, music of horn*. It stretch** out Its nrms to them, they have only to give themselves up. Chicago and It* saloon* and It* slums fsd* away—there are green meadows and sunlit rivers, mutiny forests and snowclad hills. They behold horns landscape* snd childhood scenes returning; old loves and friendships begin to awaken, old Joys snd grief* to laugh and wasp. Some fall back and close their eyes, some best upon the tsbl*. Now and then one leaps up with ■ cry and calla for thla song or that; and than tha fire leaps brighter In Tsmosslus's eyes, and he (lings up his flddl* and shouts to hi* companions; and sway they go In msd career. The company takes up th* choruses, and men and woman cry nut like all possessed; sum* leap to their fret end stamp upon the floor, lifting their glasses and pledging each other. Before long It occur* to eotps one to demand an old wedding song, which celebrate* the beauty of th* bride nnd th* joy* of lov*. In the ex rltement of this masterpiece Tamoszlus Kusslslka begin* to edg* In between broad Slavic face, with prominent red cheeks. When she open* her mnniii It Is tragical, but you cannot help thinking of a hone. She wean a blue flannel shirtwaist, which le now rolled up at the elsavet, disclosing her brawny arms; she bas a carving fork In her hand, with which she pounds on ihe table to mark ths tlm*. As she roars her song, In a vplce of which It Is enough to say that It leaves no portion of th* room vacant, the three musli inns follow her laboriously and let- pv note, but averaging one note behind; thus they toll through stanza after stansa of a love-sick swaln’a lamenta tion; Hudler’ kvletkell, tu brnnglnosls; Budlev’ Ir lalme, man blednatn, Matau—paskyre tslp Aukazczlauels Jog vargt ant evteto relk vlenam! head, where slta th* brids. There Is not a foot of spaca between the chairs of th* guests, and Tamoszlus Is so short that he pokes them with his bow whenever he reaches over for tha low notes; hut still he presses In, snd In sists relentlessly that his companion* must follow. During their progress, nedless to say, th* sound* of the 'cello are pretty well extinguished; but at last th* three are et th* head, snd Tamoszlus takas hi* station at th* right hand of th* bride and begin* to poqr out hit soul In melting strains. Little Ona Is too excited to eat. One* In ■ whlls she lasts* a little something, when Cousin Marija pinches hsr elbow and reminds her; but, for th* most part she sit* gazing with tha zame fearful eyes of wonder. Tata Elsbleta Is all In a flutter. Ilk* a humming bird; her sisters, too, -k**p running up behind her, whispering, breathlea*.
