MM'UIOIACK, TRI E IRISH R.VRI>
Famous Tenor Will Appear Before
Large Audience Here To-night
Those who hoar .lohn McCormack
sing in Chestnut street hall to-night,
and there are indications that the audi
ence will Lie of record-breaking pro
portions, will hear not only a great
singer but ;;n artist who possesses all
of the qualities that made the obi Irish
bar,Us and minstrels. For many years
the poets have been telling us that Car
olan was the last of the great Celtic
boards, but tlrev were wrong, for there
is one great Irish bard yet alive, and
his name is John McCormcck. He is a
bard in a true sense, for through the
medium of music he delivers a message
that reaches the innermost depths of
the human heart.
McCormack has been richly endowed,
1 ke the bards of old, with the power
of pulling the heart strings—-of reach
ing those who love music for its own
sake an I who delight to hear in spoken
tones the longings, the desires and the
melodies that must forever remain
silent within them, i'niike many of the
concert singers heard to-dav he indulges
in no theatricals. " Play "acting" has
110 part in his concert and there is no
apparent eftort to impress his person
ality upon his hearers, lie takes them
seriously and tries to play no tricks
on them outside the realm of true artis
trv.
The announcement of the manage
ment that it has arranged for 200 ad
ditional seats at SI each and 200 more
at $ 1 ..">0 each, stimulated sales greatly
during the day and there are indications
that the big hall will be filled to over
flowing. The concert opens at 8.15. Mr.
McOormack will be assisted by Donald

M)X(i TIME RKTWEEX DRINKS
South Carolina Soions Consider Definite
Interval on the Libation Period
Spa-rtairburg, S. ('.. Feb. 3.—On that
remote occasion when tile Governor of
Aorrn i arolina. meeting the Cioveruor
01 >outh (arolina, uttered his memor
able observation concerning the chron
ological interval berween 1 nations, lit
tle d'd he wot what he was starting.
It is in.leed going to be a long time
between drinks in South Carolina, if,
as seem? likely, the Legislature passes
and the present Governor signs a bill
now pending.
The bill ennits eacn South Caro
linian to receive just one (1) shipment
of "corn Inker" per month, such ship
ment not to ex red one (1) gallon.
Thus, by legislative interpretation, the
exact length ot time 'bfctween drinks
iias finally been settled. It is one
month, thirty days at the least, and to
make matters worse for the brethren,
1916 is leap year!
In tiie hiKoric words of a hardy
scion of Carolina, ''T> j you all expect
ary gallon o' corn licke'r to last for
ever, with six hea<l o' children, when
the cow's gone dry!" None the less,
the fatal measure has already |>assed
the House and hns been favorably re
ported to the State Senate.
CAPITAL "JIM CROW" CAES
Bill Providing for Them Reported to
the House
Washington, Feb. 3.—"Jim Crow"
cars for the capital are provided in a
bill, the report on which was formally
presented to the House yesterday from
the Cowiuiiitee on the District of Co
lumbia.
The measure requires transporta
tion companies in the District, of Colum
bia to provide sepia rate compartments
tor white and colored passengers. The
report recommends an amendment to
the bill making passengers liable to
punishment if they refuse to occupy
the htrct car compartments set apart
for the races. Conductors and motor
men are given police power to enforce
the law.
"If this bill is enacted into law,"
says the re; ort, "its enforcement will
result in the betterment of conditions
between the white people and negroes
in the District of Columbia, and will
reduce to a minimum the friction
which present conditions sometimes
renders seriexus."

PITTSBURGH FLOOD RECEDES
The Crest Beached at Midnight When a
Stage of 25.5 Feet Was
Registered
By Associated Press.
Pittsburgh, Pa., Fob. 3. —The flooi
which inundated the low-lying sections
along the Allegheny and Ohio rivers,
began receding slowly early to-day and
Forecaster Henry W. Pennywitt de
clared all danger had passed. The crest
was reached at midnight when a stage
of 28.5 feet was registered.
(Some suffering was reported from
the flootdbd districts but policemen in
boats took food and fuel to families
who had boon imprisoned in the upper
stories of their homes during the night.
There was little actual damage along
the rivers, however, warning having
been given iji ample time for precau
tionary measures.
Thousands of men wore throwL out
of work when mills along the Alle
gheny river were flooded but it was l>o
lieved they would be aible to return to
work within a few days.
According to the police no lives have
been lost in the flood although there
have been many narrow escapes. A re
port to the police last night said that,
t.wo women frantically calling for help
were seen on a house boat which was
being swept .lown the Allegheny river.
The boat was not located and the rumor
was generally doubted.

Advice on the Care of Trees
Editor. The Star-Independent:
Dear Sir—Please assist me to tell
the householders of our city how to add
to its beauty. We do not all see alike.
1 see with sorrow every ill-shaped tree.
I also see lioiv easily it could be reme
died. I discovered a tree* blighted by
insects pest. I call it a "sucker." Why!
Because it sucks the life of the tree.
The veterinary doctor says the cause
of the non growth and delicacy of your
■calf is because it is eaten i»y lice. 1
say the same thing is the matter with
your tree, plant, shrub or vine. Is it
•bark louse or scource scale? Take yon
knife blade and rub vigorously the af
flicted spot and discover blood. The
living suckers, summer and winter de
face and dwarf your tree.
■ Some balmy day rub vigorously with
some blunt tool. Do not cut, but crush
the life of the millions of insects. Then I
scrub vigorously with strong soap suds, I
remove the insects and the tree will I
thrive. Any boy or girl can do this to
your small trees or shrubs. In the shrub
bery most like'v three-fourths of the j
stalks are dead and should be cut out I
and burned. If the tree is large do
your best on trunk and convenient j
lini'bs. Then if it is the oyster shell '
bark louse the greatest pest of our [
day, keep a close tap on it in the last j
days of .May or early June when they i
commence to move and spray the tree. I
Better consult Professor Surface on the j
subject.
Now the moth is in sight on many
trees also under doors and windows, in
every erevis of your fence. You can
destroy her brood. They are to be had
by millions. Have your boys collect
them and burn them.
It is not now the Fourth of July, but
the cracking of these eggs in a hot fire
is equal fun with no danger of injurv
to the boys.
One active boy can in our city gath
er in one day so many millions that he
could amuse a camp' of kids a whole
e\ ening. They cost hiin no money.
Please ask Professor Surface or any
forester whether trees in vour yard,
that may yield bushels of fruit and
give you beautiful blooms it) spring,
may not be made of advantage to you
■by purifying your soil. Do not the
leaves take up the dampness and im
purities in the soil and cast them to :
the wind!

MANY USES Of
RHEUMATISM NOW
Says We Must Keep Feet Dry,
Avoid Exposure and
Eat Less Meat
Stay off the damn ground, avoid ex
posure, keep feet dry, eat less meat,
drink lots of water, and above all take
a spoonful of salts occasionally to keep
down uric acid.
Rheumatism is caused by poisonous
toxin, called uric acid, which is gene- !
rated in the bowels and absorbed into
the blood. It is the function of the
kidneys to filter this acid from the
blood and cast it out in the urine. The
pores of the skin are also a means of
freeing the blood of this impurity. In
damp and chilly, cold weather the skin
pores are closed, thus forcing the kid
neys to do double work, thej' become
weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate
this uric acid which keeps accumulating
and circulating through the system,
eventually settling in the joint's and
muscles causing stiffness, soreness and
pain called rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about four s
ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoonful
in a glass of water and drink before
breakfast each morning for a week.
This is said to eliminate uric acid by
stimulating the kidneys to normal .ac
tion, thus ridding the blood of these
imparities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with litliia
and is used with excellent results by
thousands of folks who are subject to
rheumatism. Here you have a pleasant;
effervescent lithia-water drink which
overcomes uric acid and is beneficiaJ
to your kidneys as well.—Adv.
