PRIZE ESSAY CONTEST
AND JIM KEY
JIM KEY BANDS OF MERCY
The wonderful horse. Jim Key, Is
the central figure In the humanlta
rlan work which his owner. A. R.
Rogers, hopes to accomplish. But
the horse's benefit exhibitions, which
are now over, are only a email part of
trie work.
Jim Key Bands of Mercy a novt
forming In the public schools. Any
child In the city may Join and the or
ganization will number thousands.
To maintain the enthusiasm and
give It direction, The Journal,
In co-operation with Mr. Rogers, has
I arranged a prize essay contest for pu
pils in the fourth to eighth grades, I
Inclusive. They are asked to write
brief essays, based on their own ob
servations, showing how animals re
spond to kindness and patience.
Papers should be plainly written on
one side of the paper only, and should
not exceed 300 words.
Each paper should bear the name,
address, school and grade of the
writer, and, of course, all must be
original and neat. Spelling will also
be a factor In the consideration.
If you have done or seen any act
of kindness to any animal, Just write
the story simply and send It to "Uncle
Bert," care of The Minneapolis Jour
nal. This Is the name by which Mr.
Rogers Is known to some 700,000 Band
of Mercy members In the United
States, and he keeps closely In touch
with the writers.
Prizes are awarded each week for
the papers from each grade, each
class receiving three prizes, $1, 75
cents and 50 cents, respectively. From
now on, for a month, the best of these
papers will be published every day,
by which time the Bands of Mercy
will be In running order and the Jim
Key Band of Mercy column will be a
regular feature of JOUPIII.
SEND IN YOUR ESSAYS AT ONCE.
The lesson in kindness and patience
that Jim Key has taught the children
of Minneapolis last week is already
bearing fruit. The children are eager
to ioin the Bands of Mercy to be organ
ized next week in all the public schools,
and they are further showing their in
terest by sending, in their essays and
little stories to win a share of the $5U
in prizes TheJournalhas offered.
The children are urged to send in
their essays or stories at once, feurely
nearly every child can tell of some in
cident where animals have responded
in an unusual way to love and kind
ness. The Band of Mercy column wishes
to hear from every child in the city,
and from time to time these stories will
be published that the other children
may receive both benefit and pleasure
from them. wnd,0.i
The prize stories will be published
every week, with the name of the
^he'"early bird" in the prize con
test will stand' the best show of win
ning a prize, as next week, when the
Bands of Mercy are fully organized,
"Uncle Bert" expects to receive sev
eral hundred letters a week. Bead care
fully the rules at the head of the col
umn and send in your stones at once.
Jim Key is having an informal re
ception at Dr. Cotton's veterinary
barns, where he is a guest until Wed
nesday, when-he goes to St. Paul to de
light "several thousand more children.
Jim is kind and gracious to all His
callers, and accepts the apples and
sugar the children bring him. He nods
his replies to all his callers, and does
not appear in the least bored at all
the attention showered upon him.
Jim loses interest in others, however,
"when Dr. Key, his^ldr master and
trainer, comes near.
He will rub his head against his
Bhoulder, and in every way he can he
demonstrates Ms great love for the man
from whom he has received nothing but
kindness.
One Band of Mercy.
It is impossible to estimate the good
work accomplished by the 70,000 Bands
of Mercy in the United States: lne
following from the San Francisco Call
is only an illustration of what one oi
these bands has done not only for the
dumb animal, but for the children them
selves: i
"People in the Jefferson school dis
trict which has its center nea* First
and Tehama streets, are frequently
heard to remark the change that has
come over the spirit of the locality.- A
few years ago a Chinaman was unsafe
thereabout. If he wasn't forced into
unequal hand-to-hand battle he was
elted with stones and made to think
that existence in this country had more
penalties than the annual rolltax Woe
to the stray dog or cat which ran into
the territory of the young barbarians
south of Market street. The cur was
terrorized with, an appendant of old
oyster cans, and his noisy flight fur
nished amusement for many a block,
while the feline became a target for
slungshot and brickbat till she either
succumbed to the assault or escaped un
der some friendly house.. When pugil
ism was popular in the west, the urchins
of Jefferson school had daily aet-tos in
back lots, and skinned faces, black eyes
and broken noses, as well as bruised
hands and lame legs, were not rare
things.
Most Orderly in City.
"Today the Jefferson school is one
of the most orderly in all the city. The
children don't fight as they used to
they don't stone cats, or tie tin cans to
the tails of dogs, or molest the sons of
the flowery kingdom. And why? Be
way, as soon as he is old enough to
cause every school child down that

write his name, is made a member of an
army for the prevention of all the old
evils, and no blue-frocked, brass-but
toned guardian of the peace could ever
have done a tithe of the good that those
children have accomplished. For the
last four vears the principal of the1Jef
ferson scnoolt Miss M. M. Mur~ has
been organizing the pupils of' all the
various classes into Bands of Mercy,
and altho at .first the idea was combated
in the district, it has gradually in
creased in popularity until now every
child soems proud of his enrollment.
There are about 350 members in the or
ganization today, and each of them
takes the Band of Mercy pledge.
Every Friday afternoon, before Jef
ferson school is dismissed for the week,
the different classes gather in the as
sembly room, each class being distin
guished by a badge of a particular color
red, pink, white, purple, gold or blue.
In chorus they repeat that pledge and
then recite in unison this stanza from
Coleridge:
He prayeAh best who loveth best
All things, both great and small,
For the dear God, who loveth us,
He made and loveth all.
Saved from Cruelty.
"Miss Murphy -said the children
brought into her office kittens or dogs
which had been saved from cruel treat
ment.
"The Jefferson School Band of Mercy
register is a wonderful collection of
curious hieroglyphics, for 6-year-old
children have affixed their autographs
here and there, and some interesting
studies in the chirography of the young
is the result, altho some of them sign
their names about as plainly as Shaks
or Horace Greeley used to do.
here is plenty of evidence to the fact
that these children are doing good.
Strong men will barken to the voices
of tender little girls when they would
not heed the words of elder people,
and there is an example where a man
who was beating his horse was called
to by a child, 'Please don't whip him,
sir.'
'What is it to you?' laughed the
rough fellow.
"'I belong to the Band of Mercy,
was the response. 'Please don't
whip the horse any more.
'Well, child/ said the man, lower
ing his whip, since you ask me to stop,
I'll be gol-darned if I don't stop. For
your sake, child, I'll not beat him
any more.'
ADOPTS AUTHOR'S IDEA
FOR 'TAMING O SHREW
E. H. Sothern says, referring to^the
broadly farcical treatment which Miss
Marlowe and himself are giving to
The Taming of the Shrew:'
"Yes, we are presenting the play
the purely farcical spirit in which it
was done in Shakspere's time, and, un
doubtedly, with the author's sanction.
The innovation has, naturally, aroused
some discussion but it has made -a tre
mendous hi with the public. To do
old things in a new way, and especiaUy
when you have been taught by tradi
tions" of some years' standings that the
familiar way was the right one, is
bound to cause argument. I is a
commonplace that humanity is fond of
a 'groovey* existence as being the line
of least mental resistance. William
James, however, commends a very ex
cellent habit-always to keep a window
open some corner of the mind for
the acceptance of new facts. For for
ty years, you know/the English stage
knew no other Shylock than the red
wigged buffoon, the comic figure, drawn
by Doggett. in the Lansdowne version,
until Macklin and more particularly,
Kean, lifted its conception from the
depths of low comedy to the lofty plane
of tragic intensity it has since held in
the public mind. Yet not until this
characterization turned the Drury Lane
theater from a failure into a success
and filled its pit with audiences that lit-
way of presenting 'The Taming of the
Shrew,' and there is no doubt whatever
about our audiences liking it."
