w r w: JTHE MORNING HERALD, MAY 13, 1914. PAGE ITVIJ CHAU TAUQUA LEAVES CITY Has Been Week of Fine Entertainment PIS BACK III 1315 feu la ta i Durham Has Pledged 1,006 Season Tickets PROGRAM OF THE LAST Mr. Flowers Delivered Interesting Lecture on Japs in the U. S. Concert of Haynes-Kel-logg Party. Last night the remainder of thousand tickets were ipledged the for the the chautauo.ua next year and jeek of attraction are again assur red thing for Durham. In fact, there were six more than a thousand pled tickets at the price of two ges for dollars. The first two requests for signa tures to the pledge cards resulted in getting 756 season tickets pledged for the coming year, and the number was raised to the required amount last night when the pledge cards were taken up. The secretary of the Y. M. C. A. stood at the entrance last night and gave the cards out asking that they be signed to be collected during an intermission in the final concert of the week. Those who have signed these pled jfW will get their tickets at two dol lars a piece. The season tickets that are sold before the Chautauqua opens next year will cost fifty cents more than this, and the tickets sold for the entire week's entertainments after the first day of the Chautauqua will sell for three dollars. This year the Commercial club and the Merchants' association who guar anteed the sale of $1,500 worth of season tickets came out about $500 in the hole. They have paid up their guarantee to the Red path people, and are trusting to a better business next year to repay this money lost on their venture in bringing the attractions to Durham. They believe the money as 'ell invested as any that has ever (;en spent for the city of Durham," and 1 j ui e . : ui up this loss next year, tor tne cnau tauqua has proved immensely popular here. No. such list of high class attrac tions have ever been brought to the city In one week's time, and no such high class attractions have ever been given in Durham at the price charged for the chautauqua shows. The last day of the chautauqua was well up to the standard that has been maintained during the week, and in fact, the entertainment given by the Haines-Kellogg company was probab ly one of the most popular that has been given. Their program in the af ternoon was a short one, but the en . tire evening was turned over to them for the night performance. Follow ing their concert in the afternoon Mr. tefltaville Flowers spoke on the Ja panese question. Mr. Flowers discussed this question from the standpoint of the Californ ian, who has been in touch with the Japanese question since it became a vital one in the affairs of that state arid nation. He told of conditions in the state of California, and said that he Japanese today were striving to-. ards the ultimate aim of citizenship ind social equality. The people of California objected to 'this because it meant the extermina- J on of American ideals and American stoms. The Japanese people do not ssimilate American customs. Other ieople coming to this country are llad to throw off their home ties, their ustoms and their ideas, and take up I'iR standards of living and the ideals f the American people. They are willing to learn , from the people of this virile young republic of the east Mr. Flowers said that while this question in the past had been one that should have been dealt with by the state of California it was the be ginning of another race problem, more imnnrtant in the seriousness of its aspect that any that had ever con fronted the American people. The Japanese not only demand the right to hold real property in this coun try. which was taken away from them by the California legislature a rew years ago, but they demand that they j made the social and political equal every American citizen. The Vpeaker said that the history of the world showed it impossible for any two nations to live together in the same land, unless one was willing to be subserviant to the other race po litically and socially. This was im possible if it was the desire of the white people to maintain their racial integrity. The wishes of the Japanese people Ln this country to obtain all the rights bt citizenship is backed by the Japa- ese nation, who claims that they ;hould have the right to acquire American citizenship as all otner ilised nations have. Mr. Flowers objected to the word others" in the demands of the Japa nese nation. He claims that tney are Just awakening from ten . thousand years of semi-barbarism, and are not as civilized as other nations of the earth. -, The suicide of the famous Ja panese general, because of his belief that the spirit of the chief adviser must go with the Mikado to the other land, was cited as an evidence of the fact that the Japanese people are not on a par with the other civilized na tions of the world. Last night the (Haines-Kellogg sing ing cbmpany gave a number of selec tions of modern and old time songs for the first part of their, program. The pianist is unusually good, and his "story telling" on the piano was one of the most amusing things of the week. The tenor has a fine voice and so has the bass. The two female voices measure up particularly well The contralto has a voice of particu lar sweetness. In addition to a fine voice the young lady has one of the most winsome stage presences to be found. She will be remembered here as one of the favorites ' of chautau qua week. The latter part of the program was a light opera, "The Gay Galatea" and it combined a good deal of singing with much comedy. QUARTER CENTURY GRESS. OF PRO- When the North Carolina college of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts opened its doors in October, 1889, it had one building and sixty-two acres. In 1914 it has twenty-one buildings, be sides barns and farm buildings, and the acreage has grown to four hun 3red and eighty-six. In the same period the enrollment has grown almost tenfold, from sev enty-two in 1889 to six hundred and eighty-two in 1914, and the faculty roll has increased from eight to fifty-five. The physical valuation of the col lege has grown at a rate which is no less astonishing. In 1889 the college had one building worth $35,000 and sixty-two acres of ground worth ap proximately $2,500. The present val ue of apparatus, furniture ana ma chinery alone (about $226,000) out values about six times the whole ini tial equipment of the college. With the present value of grounds and buildings added, it will be seen that the state has considered the college a highly desirable investment. The figures, in round numbers, are as toU lows: Present value of grounds, $899,000. buildings, $587,000; apparatus, furni ture, and machinery, $226,000. Total, $902,000. From $37,500 to $902,000 in twenty-five years, even allowing for the natural increment of land value, represents a marvelous story of pro gress. The state has emphatically and practically indicated that the in dustrial training of her sons is worth its cost. When the college was started, heads of industrial establishments and farm managers were shy about employing technical jgraduates. Now .these same classes of business men visit or write f.o "the college seeking its students, and the success of the graduates am ply justifies the change of attitude. Turn where you will in North Caro lina today, and you will find A. & M. men materially contributing to its in dustrial leadership. The same is true in other states. The A: & M. man more than holds his own wherever he goes. Some good day we hope to get them all back into the Old North state. Wi FAWPOCTOR HONEST ANDMLIABLE THE WONDERFUL CURATIVE POW ERS OF BLACK-DRAUGHT, SAYS F. R. HUFFMAN, HAVE MADE ME NAME IT MY FAMILY DOCTOR Waynes ville, N. C Mr. F. R. Huff man, district deputy, W. O. W., of this town, makes the following state ment: "Permit me to describe my experi ence of the wonderful curative powers of Thedford's Black-Draught. It has not only relieved me of indi gestion and heart trouble, "but I also believe it has affected a permanent cure in Fistula, with which I suffered terribly at the same time that I had indigestion and heart trouble. As I have not suffered from fistula for the past two years, and as I had no operation, nor used any other medi cine, Thedford's Black-Draught must have effected a cure by purifying the blood and relieving the cause indi gestion and torpid liver. For the past five, years, Thedfor'l's Black-Draught has .been my family doctor, and I haye found him to be honest and reliable." Do not allow indigestion to make a martyr of you. Your stomach is one of the most important, organs of your body. When it is. Working properly, you will feel fresh, bright, happy pnd healthy. When' it is clogged up with undigested food, you feel sluggish, worn-out, weak and miserable. For over seventy years, Thedt'ord'3 Black-Draught has been regulating ir regularities of the liver, stomach and bowels. Don't you feel the need of it? Try it. Costs only one cent a dose.
