PRETTY ATLANTA GIRLS WON ADMIRA TION OF SPECTA TORS Hundreds Witnessed Parade and Applaud' ed Young Women. Special to ThekQeorgtan. Asheville, N. C, June 1*.—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 the different colleges, dressed In costumes representing flowers, were 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. Mias Mabel Cratty led the line of march, Mlsa Emily Stafford, of Atlanta, headed the gulf states delegations, and Mlsa Harvey, of Atlanta, acted as mas ter of ceremonies. All the young ladles wore overskirts, cut so as to resemble the petals of a rose or other flowers, and had flowers ln their hair. Each carried wreaths. The Savannah city delegation, com posed of a doxen pretty girls dressed n blue sailor suits, were among the most admired of the delegates. They carried oars and wore peanuts as ear rings. The Atlanta city delegation waa also very attractive. The young ladles were dressed In crimson and white, repre senting their aasoclatton, 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 sang “Marching Thro’ Georgia" The Lucy Cobb delegation of Geor gia 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 ln this body, dressed to represent clover. A banner of clover blossoms was a fea ture of this delegation. The delegation from Converts 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 Bel mont 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. Wlnthropo Col lege, Savannah, Ga., City Association, BOY’S FEAR OF WATER GREATER THAN HIS DREAD OF DEATH By Private Leased Wire. Chicago, June It.—Because hie fear of water was treater than his fear of death. Max Mosxosynskl, IS years old, lay down before an oncoming train yesterday, and the wheels crushed out his life. The lad .was caught on the 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. His father and a companion commanded the boy to Jump Into the river, and themselves set the example. The boy crouched on the trestle, shivering pitifully, hesitated, and then deliberately lay down on the track be tween the ralle. When the father and his companion climbed the bank of the river In safety, they turned and us the trainmen striving to remove the small crushed form from beneath tha wheels. JOHND. FEARS ANAR CHJSTS; NASA GUARD AT CHATEAU WHERE HE IS STOPPING ATLANTANS TO GO TO LABORCONCLAVE A BIG DELEGATION WILL LEAVE FOR AUGUSTA TUES DAY NIGHT. By WILLIAM HOSTER. Special Cable—Copyright. Complegne, France, June 11—A guard stationed at the chateau every night alnce hts arrival, reveals the 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 Saltovexe about a watch being kept on ex-crlml- nals who might bo dangerous. Mr. Rockefeller waa greatly pleased by learning that under the law Com plegne being a palace town and a royal chateau being situated there, ex-con- vlcts are not permitted there under pain of Immediate'arrest. This la an ancient provision for the safety of roy alty. Through Dr. Blggar, the mayor has been Informed that hla request for a donation for the poor will receive fa vorable aonalderatlon before Mr. Rockefeller leaves the town. The may or's attention to Mr. Rockefeller haa brought on hla head n bitter attack from The Gazette, the local paper. "The fatal course of the Rockefeller millions Is felt In this far-away French provincial town,” eaya The Gaselte. Then It ridicules tho 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," says The Gaiette, "poi- sesa In the|r walls the richest Inhabi tant of the world. A week ago John Rockefeller came, but there waa no change In our normal life. We are not getting excited, though he seems of great Importance In free America, since Its great newspapers send a Journalist who walks, rides and talks with him Mississippi State Association, Charles ton, S. C., City Association, Lynwood College, Lewlsburg College, and Colum bia, S. C., College. dally and sends tha details by cable at great expense." Continuing, tho paper tells of Rocke feller’s horror of those who come ask ing money, nnd discusses with mock seriousness his stomsch. 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 la still uncertain. He has told a friend that maybe he will stay a week, maybo three weeks. It all depends on his daughter’s health. THE BALTIMORE HERALD SUSPENDS PUBLICATION. By Private Leased lVIre. Baltimore, Md..

Before the firm put the book on the market It assigned unbiased In- ▼estimators to verify the accusations made by Mr, Sinclair. These probers made a report which corroborated In every detail tho expose of the author. They found that meat unfit for human consumption was being packed ln cons and sold throughout the country. They found that so-called food, al most rank ln Its condition, was being palmed off on the public as a nec essary of life, when In reality It was practically a poison. Readers of this serial—launched as a novel, but now ranking as a document inseparable from the fight for better conditions In the country- will have an opportunity to get Into Intimate acquaintance with the meth ods employed by tho greatest packing houses ln the world, and will be en abled to realize how monopoly can, under existing conditions, mulct the public and make profit out of commodities which are not only useless as a diet, but are positively Injurious. The story Is dedicated to the workingmen of America. THEJUNGLB UPTON By SINCLAIR. CHAPTER I. (Copyright, 1906, by Doubleday, Pago & Co. All right* reserved.) It was 4 o’clock when tho ceremony waa over and the carriages began to arrive. There had been a crowd following all the way, owing to the exu berance of MarIJn Bercxynskaa. The occasion rested heavily upon Marlja'd * broad shoulders—It waa her task to aeo that all things went In due form, and after the beat homo traditional and, flying wildly hither and thither, bowling every one out of tho way, and scolding and exhorting all day with her tremendous voice, Marija waa too eager to see that others conformed to the proprieties to consider them herself. She had left the church last Of all, and, dealring to arrive first at the hall, had Issued order* to the coachman to drive faster. When that personage had developed a will of hla own in the matter, Marija had flung up the window of the carriage, and, leaning out, proceeded to tell him her opinion of him, first in Lithuanian, Which he did not understand, and then In Pollah. which he did. Having the advantage of her In altitude, the driver had atood hla ground and 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 tho cortege at each side street for half a mile. Thla 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 altltudlnoua 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, she turned and began to puih the other way, roaring, meantime, "Elk! Elk! Uidaryk-duris!" In tones which made the orchestral uproar eound like fairy music. "2. Gralcaunas, Pastllnksmlnlnnams (Ursa*. Vyna*. Bsnapsas. }Vlne* and Liquors. Union Headquarters"—that was the way the elgns ran. The reader, who perhaps has never held much converse in the language of far-off Lithuania, will be gUd of tbe explanation that the place was the rear-room of a saloon In that part of Chicago known as "back of the yard*." This information U definite and suited to the matter of fact; but how piti fully Inadequate It would have seemed to one who understood that It waa also the supreme hour of ecstacy In the life-of one of Hod's gentlest crea tures, the sepne of tht wedding-feast and the Joy-transfiguration of little Ono Lukosxalte! 8h* stood In the doorway, shepherded by Cousin Marija, breathless from pushing through the crowd, and In her happiness painful to look upon. There was a light of wonder In her eyes and her lids trembled, and her otherwlee wan little face waa 'flushed. She wmre a muslin dreaa, conspicu ously white, and a stiff little veil coming to her shoulders. There were five pink paper roses twisted In the veil, and eleven bright green rose leaves. There were new white cotton gloves upon her hands, and aa ah* stood staring about her she twisted them together feverishly. It waa almost too much for her—you could see the pain of too great emotion In her face, and all the tremor of her form. She waa so young—not quite sixteen— and small for her age, a mere child; and she had juat been married—and married to Jurgls*, of all men, to Jurgls Ru4kus, he with the whit* floWer In the buttonhole of his new black sulL he with the mighty shoulders and tha giant hands. Combs of Exquisite Beauty x Some in the plain sheen of the tortoise-shell, others skilfully adorned with delicate tracery of gold, and still others showing pearls or jewelled settings. Wo have the freshest fashion-fancies in these and all the other little belongings that women want, Maier & Berkele. 'Pronounced Yoorghls. Ona waa blue-eyed and fair, while Jurgla had great black eyes with beet ling brows, and thick black hair that curled In waves about bis ears—In abort, they warp one of those Incon- lUS and Impossible married couples which Mother Nature ao often will* to confound all prophets, before and after. Jurgts could take up a two- hundred-and-flfty-pound quarter of beef and carry It Into a car without a ■tagger, or even a thought; and now he V°od In a far corner, frightened ae a hunted animal, and obliged to moisten hi* tips with hla tongue, each time be fore he could answer the congratul*' tlona of hla friends. Gradually there waa effected a asp. aratlon between the spectator, and the guests—a separation at least sutllclent- ly complete for working purposes. There was no time during the festivi ties which ensued when there were not groups of onlooker. In the doorway, and the corners; and If any ona of these onlookers came sufficiently close, or looked sufficiently hungry, a chair was offered him, and he waa Invited to the feast. It was one of the law* of the-veaellja that no on* goes hungry; and, while a rule made In the forests of Lithuania I* hard to apply In the ■tock-yarda district of Chicago, with Its quarter of a million Inhabitants, still they did their best, und the children who ran In from the street, and even the doge, went out again happier. A charming Informality wai one of tha characteristics of thla celebration. The men wore their hats, or, If they wished, they took them off, and their coat* with them; they ate when and where they pleased, and moved as often as they pleased. There were to be speeches and singing, but no on* had to listen who did not car* to; If he wlehed, meantime, to apeak or sing himself, he was perfectly free. The resulting med ley of sound distracted no 'one, save possibly alone the babies, of which there were present a number equal to the total possessed by all the guests Invited. There waa no other place for the babies to be, and ao part of tha preparations for the evening consisted of a collection of crib# and carriages In one corner. In these the 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, marched about munching contentedly at meat bone* and bologna sausages. The room is about thirty feet square, with whitewashed walla bare save for a calendar, a picture of a race hone, end a. family tree In a gilded frame. To the right there le a door from the saloon, with a few loafers In ths door way, and In the corner beyond It a bar, with a presiding, genius clad In soiled white, with waxed Mack mus taches and a carefully died curl plast ered against one side of hi* forehead. In the opposite corner are two tables, fill ing a third of the room and laden with dishes and cold viands, which a few of the hungrier guests are already munching. At tb* head, where sits ths bride, 19 a snow-white cske, with an Eiffel tower of constructed decoration, with sugar roses end two angsls upon It, and a generous sprinkling of pink and green end yallow candles. Beyond opens a door Into the kitchen, .where there la a glimpse to be had of a range with much steam ascending from It, and many women, old and young, rush ing hither and thither. In the corner to the left are 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 Imbibes the sights and sounds and odors. Suddenly eome of the steam begins to advance, and, peering through It, you discern Aunt Elisabeth, One's stepmother—Teta Elsbteta, as they call her—bearing aloft a great platter of stewed duck. Behind her Is Kotrina, making her way cautiously, staggering beneath a similar burden; and half a minute later there appear* old Grand mother Majausxklene, with a big yel low bowl of smoking potatoes nearly as big aa herself. 80, bit by ML the feast takes form—there Is a bam and a dish of sauerkraut, boiled rice, maca roni, bologna sausages, great plies of ly buns, bowls of milk and foam- pitchers of beer. There Is also, not six feet from your back, the bar. where you may order all you please and do not have to pay for It. "Elkax r Gralcxlan!" screams Marija Bercajm* ska*, and falls to work herself—for there Is more upon the stove Inside that will be spoiled if It be not eaten. So, with laughter and shouts and endless badinage and merriment, the guests take their place*. The young men, who for the most part have been huddled near the door, summon their resolution and advance; and the shrinking Jurgls I* poked and scolded by the aid folks until h* consents to seat himself at the right hand of the bride. The bridesmaids, whose In signia of office are paper wreaths, com* next, and after them the rest of the guests, old and young, boys and girls. The spirit of the occasion takes hold of the stately bartender, who condescends to a plat* of stewed duck; even tbe fat policeman—whose duty It will be, later In the evening, to break up the fights—draws up a chair to the foot of the taMe. And the children shout and the baMes yelL and every one laughs and sings end chat ters—wblle above all the deafening clamor Cousin Marija shouts order, to the musicians: Tbe musician#—bow shall on* begin to describe them? All this lime they have been there, playing In a mad frenxy—ell of thla scene must be rend, or aald, or sung to muafe. It la tha music which mokes It what It la; It la the music which changes ths place from the rear room of a saloon In bock of the yards to a fairy palace, a wonderland, a little corner of the high mansions of the sky. The little person who leads this trio Is an Inspired man. His fiddle Is out of tune, end there Is no rosin on hls how, but still h* Is an Inspired man— the hands of the muses have been laid upon him. II* plays Ilka one pos sessed by a demon, by a whole hordt of demons. You can feel them In tne air around about him, rapartng frenet ically; with their Invisible feet they set the pace, end the heir of the lead er of the orchestra rises on end, and hls eyeballs start from their sockets, as he tolls to keep up with them. Tamoeslus Kusslelka I* hls name, and he has taught himself to play the violin by practicing all night, after working all day on the "killing beds." He Is In hls shirt sleeves, with a vest figured with faded gold hors**hoes and a pink-striped shirt suggestive of peppermint candy, A pair of mili tary trousers, light Mu* with a yellow stripe, serv* to glvs that suggestion of authority proper to th* leader of a band. He Is only about 6 feet high, but, even so, these trousers are about ( Inches short of th* ground. You wonder where he can have gotten them—or rather you would wonder. If the excitement of being In hls pres ence left you time to think of such things. For he Is an Inspired man. Every Inch of him le Inspired —you might al most say Inspired separately. He stamp* with hls feet, he toes*, hls head, he sways and swing* to and fro; h* has a‘wlxened-up little face. Irre sistibly comical; and, when he exe cutes a turn or a flourish, hls brows knit and hi* lips work and hls eyelids wink—the very ends of hla necktie bristle out. And every now end then he turns upon hls companions, nod ding. signaling, beckoning frantically —with every Inch of him apprising, Imploring, In behalf of the muse* and their call For they are hardly worthy of Tamoeslus, ths other two member* of the orchestra. The second violin le a Hlavok, a tall, gatmt man with black- rimmed spectacles and th* mute and R atlent look of an overdriven mule; e responds to the whip but feebly, and then always fells back Into hls old rut. Ths third msn Is very rat, with a round, red, sentimental nose, and he plays with hls syta turned up to th* sky and a look of Infinite yearn ing. He le playing A base port upon hls ’cello, end so ths excitement I* nothing to him; no matter what hap pens In th* treble, It Is hls task to saw out one long-drawn and lugubrious note after another, from 4 o'clock In th* afternoon until nearly the earn* hour next morning, for hie third of th* total Income of 81 per hour. Before the feast has been 5 min ute* under way Tamoeslus Kusxlstka has risen In hls excitement; a minute or two more and you as* Mat he Is be ginning to edge over toard the table*. Hls nostrils are dilated and hla breath come* fast—hla demons are driving him. He nods and shake* Ms head at there Tumosclua mounts upan a stool. Now he Is in hls glory, dominating th* scent.
