Although a native of St. Louis, where he was bora In 1&70, Bain- bridge Colby is descended from old New York State families. His father lived in Nuftda, Livingston County, and his grandfather, Rev. Samuel Baixtbridge, of Elmira, was the pastor of the Baptist church in Elmira dur- ! ing the war times. Dr. Balnbridge I was a well-known figure in the ante i beUum agitation against slavery, and ' when tH© time to fight came, left his I pulpit and went to the front as chap- ! lain of a New York regiment. | Colby's father was an officer ia the Fifty-ninth New York Regiment of Volunteers, and at the close of the war located in St. Louis, where he was a well-known lawyer. Graduating from Williams College. Mass., 18&0, he came to New York, and after a course in law at the Columbia College Law School, was admitted to the Bar in the City of New York. One of his earliest clients was Mark Twain. It was Colby who straightened out the tangled affairs of Mark Twain's publishing house, and made a settlement with the creditors which lifted the heavy bur- den of debt which Mark Twain had incurred through his ill-starred pub- lishing venture. Colby's success in his profession was prompt, and he has steadily fig- ured in important legal matters. In conjunction with Governor Hughes, the late William B. Hornblower and other prominent attorneys, he was re- : tained by the interests which under j took to bring about reforms in the j Equitable L-ife Assurance Company, j and later was employed by the Mutual Life Insurance Company, together with Judge D<!ady Herrick and the Sate Judge J. B. Dill, as counsel for [ Uie committee of trustees of the ., A \ Mutual Company, of which Stuyvesant »d Leveling, Mape undl pis h wag ch ^ irman > ap&omte d for the j pescriptsous | p UrpO g e o f examining into the meth- j Wm&a P. 0. ] >ds and management of the company, j He was one of numerous counsel en- j sraged in the Northern Securities liti- j gation. Although frequently engaged j professionally in the service of im- j portant interests, he has never rep- j resented any of the industrial com- j oinations whose organization or prac- j jices have been the subject of chal- | fenge from the Government. j Colby 'has, notwithstanding the i demands of an active professional life, found time to devote to public ques- tions. Never an office seeker and having held 'but one office, he has been In constant demand on the stump, where he is a forceful and effective speaker. In the movement which carried Seth Low into the Mayoralty of New York City, be ad- dressed a fusion political meeting at Carnegie Hall in New York which marked the culmination of that great popular rising, and in the same year be was elected to the New York As- sembly, where he represented the Twenty-ninth New York District. He i received the largest majority ever given a candidate for the Legislature ia that district. Although offered a unanimous nomination at the conclu- I si on of his term, owing to the de- | mauds of his practice he was obliged j to decline it. j During his period of service in the I Legislature he was not bound up with I tie Republican organization, but was j known as an independent. He was 1 one of the men in the Legislature ! upon whom tie Low administration relied to advance and care for the reform measures which Mayor Low caused to be introduced for the cor- Ieffort rection of conditions in New York City, and he won statewide acknowl- edgment of the value of his- services in opposing Odell's effort to bring the administration of the State's charit- able institutions under political con- I trol. i Colby was one of the first of promi- | nent New Yorkers to announce his j belief in the principles of the Pro- j greSoive cause, and one of the first I to espouse the candidacy of Theodore ! Roosevelt. In an address made in the last Presidential campaign, he spoke of Theodore Roosevelt as follows: \I believe, and I assert, that it Is the growing belief of his countrymen, that Roosevelt more nearly speaks the mind and vital thought of the nation today than any other man, and that he has outlined in his re- cent utterances the course of political evolution and progress of our people for the next generation.\ Elected a delegate to the Progres- sive national convention from New York, he took an active part in its deliberations and made an effective speech before the convention, second- ing the nomination of Hiram W. John- son, Governor of California, for the Vice-Presidency, on behalf of the State of New York. At the New York State convention the man with the j of the Progressive Party, held in j Syracuse in 1912, Colby was strongly • urged for the nomination as Governor, but withdrew Ms name in the interest of .unanimity. In tlie Presidential campaign of 1912 Mr. Colby toured the country speaking in tlw> principal cities witk actable effectiveness. He has fceea an activ^ advocate of the direct primary, and in the cam- paign made in behalf of direct pri- mary legisiation under tne leadership of Governor William Sulzer, he ad- dressed meetings in many cities throughout the State and presided at the final meeting of the campaign, which was held at Cooper Union in New York City. He was active also in the last mu- nicipal election in New York City, ! speaking in behalf of the Fusion j ticket heated by John Purroy Mitchel, the present Mayor of New York. Mr. Colby's review of the history of Tam- many Hall, delivered in the form of a speeeh at Cooper Union, was a scathing arraignment of Tammany's evil record. This speech was widely circulated andv.proved a very effec- tive campaignraocumeiit.

BAINBRIDGE COLBY. called to protest against the oppres- sion suffered by the Roumanian Jews, and presided at a recent mass meet- ing of the citizens of New York at Cooper Union, which was held in or- der to call public attention to the violation of treaty stipulations and national guaranties by the Houmania with reference to the civil rights of its Jewish subjects. This meeting ad- dressed by United States Senators Miles Pcrudextc-r i-nd Moses E. Clapp. In ariiouucini: h's candidacy in the September primaries, In which lie was the unanimous choice of the Progres- sr e party for the office of United Ftales Senator. Mr. €olby took his stand upon the Progressive platform, sayiiig that \it alone offers a pro- gram by winch tbe diverse interests of our citizens can be reconciled and the nef-ds of f.iic great common inter- est fully met.\ Referring io :'\p Progressive Party, he declared h:s L?':-f that it is des- tined t;> tiMlure. \!'. stands,\ said he, \Tor the ruU- of tne people, aiming to make tliit. country, economically as well as politically, a genuine demo- cracy. It speaks for the cause of en- lightened liberalism, which seeks new- truths and would have done with old errors, testing the work of all men and all measures according as they contribute to the welfare of the men, women and children of whom the nation is composed.\ In opening his campaign for the Senate. Mr. Colby at a meeting in New York reminded Ms hearers that this was the first popular election of a Senator, Said he: \I represent no 'interest' but the common interest, the interest of all good citizens, that truth shall reign in our government and justice prevail. I propose that things whfch all agree it would be well to do, shall be done. I am neither an admirer nor a practitioner of the art of 'how not to do it.' \I stand for at least the effort to inject a new temper and a new spirit into our politics. That is my con- ception of what the Progressive Par- ty means. You may or may not agree with some of our specific proposals. You cannot but sympathize with our to inject sincerity and the ideals of service and responsibility into pub- lic life. Too long have we suffered from the Sterile buncombe of party utterance, only put forward as a blind to the real motive of party struggle, which is patronage and office. \We cannot face the future in Am- erica, we cannot bear up under tin growing pressure for solution of neglected problems unless democracy in America can make better answers to the demands of the times than the election to tlie Senate of a Penrose in (Pennsylvania or a corporate political agent like Roger Sullivan in Illinois, nor, I may add, unless in a State like New York a wider choice for Senator is offered thai; the alternative on th< one hand of a Barnes mannikin, and on the other, of a gentleman who for twenty-five years has lent his spectaWe name, as a cover and decoy to Tammany Hall, through aJl th< changing hues of disrepute which this evil organization has worn *througa that long period.\ In the Spring of this year the hon- orary degree of Doctor of Laws was conferred upon Mr. Cclby by Ohio Northern University of Ohio, and by Moores Hill College, of Indiana. Mr. Colby is a member of numerous civic, professional and social organiza- tions, including the Bar Association. of the City of New York, the American Bar Association. the Civil Service Reform Association, Phi Beta, Kappa Alumni 1 , the Univer- sity Club, Manhattan Club. Metropol- itan Club, S<juadran A Veterans, Rock- away Hunting and other clubs of New York City. He is President of the Missouri Society of New York, Episcopal Church News At a meeting of the ladies of the parish heW in the Parish House last. Wednesday ai'teinoon, a new society was organized to be known as St. Martha's Guild, The ladies were en- thusiastic in their desire to get to work at once, and commttees were ap- pointed for a church supper to be giv- en in the Parish House Hallowe'en. October 31st. The name adopted, St. Martha, who, it was written, \made Jesus a supper and served,\ should ex- press the Guild's desire to imitate in the life of our parish, her ideal of activity and service. There are no dues, and women 18 years or over, whether baptised or unbaptised, con- firmed or unconfirmed, jis eligible to membership: There are many women in this parish who have not engaged in aay of the activities of the parish. To these the rector sends a cordial invitation to be present at the next meeting of the guild to be held in the Parish House on Thursday afternoon next at 3:00 o'clock. We believe that St. Martha's Guild will soon be a vital force in our parochial life. CASCADE Please remember that next Sunday- is Rally Day in the Church School. A very interesting program consisting of vocal and instrumental music and a short address by the rector, will take the place of the usual instruction. Let every pupil be present and on time— 10:00 A. M. Frank Thew is spending a few days here. Dr. Proctor and T, A. Leahy were in Cascade Wednesday examining the school. | Mr. and Mrs. D, W.

Twenty years ago Monday, Mrs. Charles Golf of our home town, walk- ed her last step. Rheumatism set in and since that time she has not been able to even stand on her feet. Would that we*were all as patient as she! Let every loyal member of St. Eus- tace and St. Hubert's parish mark on the calendar the date Oct. 31, and re- serve it as sacred, for that is the date of the Old Fashioned Hallowe'en Sup- per, which the indefatigable workers of St. Martha's Guild are preparing for our enjoyment. Suppei* will be served in the Parish House from 5:30 to 8:00, and a program of music and hour of social converse will give you a most pleasant evening. At the low price charged for the supper—25 cents—it is impossible to make much more than expenses, but if the affair shall have helped to promote the so- cial life of the parish, we feel amply repaid for all the work involved. Let us show our appreciation of the ef- forts of St. Martha's Guild by coming- out xn full force. What is the Girls' Friendly Society? Where The Society was found- Organized ed at Lambeth Palace in 1875, when the Archbish- op of Canterbury met five ladies to discuss with them the formation of iome organization for work among girls; at this meeting the name was chosen and the rules formulated, un- der \which the G. F. S. has spread throughout Great Britain, Ireland, Eu- rope, Asia, Africa, Austi*alia and Am- erica, until it now numbers well over four hundred thousand people; the largest organization of women and girls in the world. Extent The Girls' Friendly Society in America extends from Maine to Florida, from Massachu- setts to the Philippine Islands, and has a membership of about forty-four thousand persons. In 1912 there weri '09 branches, 31 diocesan organiza- tions and work being carried on in 63 dioceses and missionary jurisdictions. Organization The organization very simple. A branch which is the unit for work, can be formed with the written consent of the rector of the parish, and no branch can exist without this consent and ap- proval. The individuals who make up the Society are: Candidates, little girls too young to be admitted members, but who are being trained in the prin- ciples of purity, duty, and faithful- ness at the age when they are most susceptible to influence: probationers, who are older, but who are not quite prepared for reception into the soci- ety (a term of probation of not less than three months being expected); and members, who enjoy full privil- eges. All these must be .unmarried girls. Associates are Working and Honorary and are responsible for the conduct of the branch under the direc- tion and control of the parish clergy; there is a further small group of mem- bers, who, wishing to continue their connection with the 0. F. S. after their marriage, come back as Married Branch Helpers. Episcopal Church Services St. Eustace and St. Hubert's Parish The Rev.
