Harris, tha composer of 'After tha Ball and SO other popular ballads and Mr. RudolDh Aronson, composer of the 'Sweet Sixteen' waits and many othet instrumental successes, were present at the President's and Mra. Roosevelt's re ception at tha White House last even ing." This notice, sent to tha newspaper cf flces recently, tells the truth. But not the whole truth, according to wide re port When Mr. Harris, one ahead of Mr. Aronson in tha line of guests at the reception, made his best bow, Mr. For ester, acting secretary to the president. whlsnered to Mr. Roosevelt "man wno wrote -After tha Ball.'" . mm "Mr. Harris," saia me preainem warmly, "I am da I am charmed to aee you.

"And many of tha bravest men in my regiment were often after the ball. Reciprocally," added Mr. Roosevelt, smiling his own Illuminated smile, "the Spaniards constantly sent balls after my' men who never dodged them." "And I.

The form of rheumatism known ai inflammatory means that the rheumatic poison in the blood has affected the joints. It is charac terized by excruciating pain and fever and the hands and wrists are often distorted and crippled. Mr. John Blake, a veteran of tha Civil War, now a ptpsperoua- largier. whose address is R. F. D. No. s, Verona, N. Y., says: "1 was sa afflicted with rheumatism that life was a misery. The pain was mostly In my limbs while my hands were so crippled that I could not close them. I suffered like this for years and thera seemed to ha no chance to get well. One day I read of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I gave them a thorough trial and was completely cured."

A Thought That Saves Dollars You may be called upon to spend Hun dreds of dollars to eradicate disease in someone dear to you; spend a thought in keeping disease away.

"Columbia" Brand HamBacon and lard The Pioneer Packers of the Pacific The city council killed tha ordinance providing for elfht additional detec tives to be assigned to the work or dinarily performed by Serjeants of po lice yesterday, on tha ground that tha measure withdrew $5,200 out of tha general fund' and not out of the money apportioned to the police department for tha year'a expenses. From expres sions made yesterday by several coun cllmen , a new ordinance appropriating the money out of the police department fund will be Introduced at the next meeting. Councilman Beldlng thus expressed himself after the council meeting, say ing he was heartily in favor of appoint ing the new men providing for the ad ditional force, but that he would not vote at this time to further reduce tha general fund. There la only 65,060 left In this fund for tha remainder of the year and Beldlng and several others say they do not want to reduce tha amount at this time. Inasmuch as thera Is likelihood the police department will not spend all of the appropriation aiiowea it ty tne council this year, members say the money for the eight new detectives should come out of this surplus and not out of the general fund. Although the fact was not mentioned in the council meeting yesterday it is well known that the members of the majority party in the council look with unfriendly eyes upon any measure in troduced by the. ways and means com mittee. Councilman Rushlight is chair man of the committee and is recognized as tha leader of tha minority in tha legislative body. It was his measure yesterday that went down to defeat, and It is probable the next ordinance pro- ; vldlng for detectives will come from some member of tha majority. wwvm PfflCES ; ' a n M 1400 Pairs Very Finest Women's $3.50 and $4 Sample Shoes and Oxfords 1.79 All samples and in a variety of styles so great that simply ererrthinff that's fashion able in the footwear line is included.

Mrs. Katherina Tlnjley, who came Into public notice as the head of a new Institution at Point Lorn a. Is about to establish a school on tha Island of Vislnrso adjoining- tha royal forest In Sweden, according to dispatches which have been sent from that country. Mrs. Ting-ley will conduct tha school for tha purpose of training; the young in the ways of morality as taught by tha cult of theosophy. She contends that It is Imperative in order to qecure the best. growth of humanity to instill Into the young the high Ideas of the moral code as held to in the teachings of the osophy. During the time Mrs. Tlngley was working for the establishment of the school she delivered several addresses, one in Malmo when she spoke on the message of theosophy. In this she de clared that man, In essence, was divine and possessed the power of conquering his lower nature and weaknesses once he wss awakened to his power. She said that theosophy had a high moral coda and argued that any system not possessing such a coda left open tha gates to vice and crime. Mrs. Tlngley touched upon tha saored ness of marriage, tha responsibility of narenta and the need of a broader con ception of man's relation to other men and to bis native country and the world. The present condition of humanity called for a higher Interpretation of tha divine laws of nature and that before happlress could be attained by men individually or a people collectively . a nobler conception of Justice must In spire the law makers and all classes of - After Joavlng. Sweden Mra Tlngley went to Paris and than to Geneva, where aha has been directing; bjr work throughout Europa. - ... K .. ..
