March 21.—Tlie tariff re- vision agreed upon in the house com- mittee on ways and means lias been carefully analyzed hy a corps of statis- tical and customs experts temporarily quartered In the committee's offices. Representative Hull of Tennessee, who will frame the income tax feature hill, and Representative Peters of Massa- chusetts have been conferring over the administrative features for report to the full committee.

St. Patrick's Day Entertain­ment in St. Rose’s Hall

REV. STEPHEN M . LYONS LECTURERSThe great, national holiday of the Celtic

race, St. Patrick’s Day, was fittingly observed in Belmar. A t St. Rose’s Hall an entertainment, rich in song and story, was enjoyed by a large .and appreciative audience.

Preceding a lecture by the Rev. Stephen M. Lyons of Spring Lake, who spoke on " The Trials and Triumphs of Ireland ” , there was a program of vocal and instru­mental music. For an overture a choice selection of Irish airs was well' rendered by the Boys’ Band of St. Rose’s parish. Miss Eienora McMahon of Newark, N. J . , in a rich soprano voice sang beautifully those famous songs of the past and present, "Kathleen Mavourneen,” "The Wearing of the Green,” and "Where The River Shannon Flows,” while Mr. Otto Staub- wasser of New York brought the audience to its feet by his wonderful violin playing.

In his lecture Father Lyons traced the growth of the Irish race from its humblest beginings to its days of greatest triumph. Fie showed what wonders had been accom . plished by the Irish people, what an impetus they had given to the cause of education by the monasteries and schools erected by them throughout Europe— all of which had been accomplished not by bloodshed but by the refining influence of Christianity.

Theevening’s entertainmentwasbrought to a close with additional selections from Miss McMahon, Mr. Staubwasser and the Boys’ Band.

GEORGE I.MURDERED KING OF GREECE.

He came here with all possible speed.The assassin of the King is an evil-

looking fellow about forty years old. On being arrested he refused to ex­plain his motive for the crime. He said his name was Aleko Schinas, and in reply to an officer vvho asked him whether he had.no pity for his country announced he was against govern­ments.

Schinas maintained a perfectly im­passable demeanor, which was sug­gestive of his being irresponsible for his actions.

Notwithstanding the rapidity with which the King received attention, he was found to be dead on arrival at the hospital.

Perfect Order Maintained.Precautions were at once taken

throughout the city and perfect order is being maintained.

The King was shot while returning from a walk to the White Tower. He was in a happy and contented mood and as he strolled alor.g talked of the war, of the success of the Greek arms, of the capture of Janina and Saloniki and of this fitting climax to his fifty years’ reign.

"To-morrow,” said the King, “I will pay my formal visit to the dread­nought Goeben (the German battleship which was sent to honor the Greek King in Saloniki), and it fills me with happiness and contentment.”

These proved to be the monarch's last words, for at that moment a shot rang out from behind his aid. The King’s aid sprang round and seized the hand of the assas'sin, which was already raised for a second shot. Cov­ering his royal master with his body, he seized the assassin by the throat and held him fast until passing sol­diers ran to his assistance.

First Shot Was Enough.But the first shot had found its

lodgment. King George had already sunk to the earth. He was lifted into a carriage and, with his head resting on his arm, continued to breathe for a short time. But before the hospital was reached life was extinct.

The bullet, which was'fired at a dis­tance of two paces, entered the back below the shoulder blade. Its point of exit was below the stomach. There was a severe hemorrhage.

NEW KING IS POPULAR.

In War of 1897 He Was Accused of !Cowardice by Greeks.

Athens.— The new King of the Hel- j lenes, Constantine, was born August 2, 1868. He is of medium height, and as ; a young man was of a retiring and studious disposition and in great con­trast to his brothers, George and Nich­olas, who were often seen in public and endeared themselves to the Greek j people in a thousand little ways.

He is the least soldierlike of the sons j of King George, and it was the evident j

lack of martial qualities that caused him to b£ unpopular and almost hated after and during the Turkish war in 1897. Many stories reflecting on his personal bravery were told and some of them believed. As Crown Prince and the Duke of Sparta he was at the front with the army and present at the defeat, including the final rout, at La rissa.

During the present war he has alsc been with the victorious Greek army having been present at the fall of Sa loniki and of Janian. He has increased much in popularity.

President Wilson is expected to visit the Panama Canal in June, and this photograph shows one of the interesting points he will see. The system at Miraflores consists of two twin locks in flight, having a total lift of about fifty-five feet. The concrete work on the locks is now about ninety-eight per cent, completed.

Washington.-—With forty-nine seats to their credit, giving them a present working majority of five, the Demo­crats of the Senate took control over that body and elected Democratic ex­ecutive officers.

For the first time in eighteen years the Senate has a Secretary, Chaplain, Sergeant at Arms, and Assistant Door­keeper who are Democratic followers. The officers chosen were James M. Baker, of South Carolina, Secretary, in place of Charles G. Bennett, of New York; Charles B. Higgins, of : Missouri, Sergeant at Arms, in place j

of E. Livingstone Cornelius, of the j District of Columbia; the Rev. Forest J. Prettyman, of Maryland, Chaplain, : in place of the Rev. Ulysses G. B. !

Columbia. Senator James P. Clarke, \ of Arkansas, was elected President ! pro tempore.

By the change the Republicans re- | ceive only one Senatorial office, that of Acting Assistant Doorkeeper. Karl A. Loeffler was elected to this place, but not until the session had been prolonged for two house through ob­jections raised by Senator Gore, of Oklahoma, who told the Senate he had reason to believe that Mr. Loeff­ler "is and was responsible for the disappearance” of an important paper that figured in the Lorimer case. It was a certificate of deposit for $2,500 of former State Senator Holstlaw, of Illinois, issued by the State Bank of Chicago.

HOLLIS ELECTED TO SENATE.

Republicans and One Progressive Help Democrat in New Hampshire.Concord, N. H.— After ten weeks of

balloting Henry F. Hollis, of this sity, Democrat, on the forty-third ballot was elected to the United States Sen­ate. The total number of votes cast was 371; necessary for a choice 186, and Mr. Hollis received 189, three more than were necessary to elect.

Henry French Hollis was born in this city on August 30, 1869. He was a civil engineer in the West for the Chi­cago Burlington and Quincy Railroad in 1886-87. He was admitted to the New Hampshire bar in 1900 and has f-or a decade been one of the most suc­cessful attorneys in the State, win­ning many large verdicts against cor­porations in accident cases.

The salaries which he will relin­quish to accept the post in the Treas­ury Department aggregate $25,000 a year. The salary of his new post will be only $5,000 a year.

BOB VEAL SHIPPER A SUICIDE.

New Indictment Unbalances Mind of Slate Hill Man.

Middletown, N. Y.— Joseph Schultz, a rattle dealer of Slate Hill, three miles from here, committed suicide by cutting his throat with a razor when he was in the Sanitarium.

Schultz was about forty years old and several times had been in trouble with the federal authorities in New York on charges of shipping bob veal. About two weeks ago he heard that he had again been indicted.

St. Louis.— A storm which spread over the entire Middle West, the Rocky Mountain region, the South and the Southwest (jused loss of life and great property damage.

Late reports indicate that nearly a hundred persons were killed, scores seriously injured, and millions of dol­lars’ worth of property destroyed, in the terrific electrical tornado which swept Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas.

Ninety deaths have been reported, and the total loss of life probably will be increased when communication is restored in„ remote sections devas­tated by the cyclone. The damage to property cannot be estimated, but will have to be computed in millions.

Twenty-nine persons are reported to have perished in Georgia and the prop­erty loss in that State is roughly es­timated at $1,000,000. Calhoun, Gordon county, Ga., and its vicinity bore the brunt of the storm in that State, and eleven persons are reported to have been killed there. The other fatalities in Georgia were nine at Tucker, four at Eaglesville, three at Clarkson, and two at Columbus.

Every message from the towns and cities of the storm-ridden zone brought its quota of disaster. Men, women and children were overwhelmed in their homes, in the streets or in the fields where they had taken shelter. Cloud­bursts drove plunging torrents through the hurricane belt. A wind of terrific velocity uprooted trees, blew down telegraph and telephone poles, tum­bled big and little buildings, and even blew railroad cars from the tracks.

The latest reports from Tennessee have increased the death toll in that State to twenty-six persons. Six per­ished in Middleton, four at South Ber­lin,- three at Huron, two each at Cul- leoka and Lexington, and one each at Leesburg, Rally Hill and Bryant Sta­tion. The loss of life in Alabama is estimated at thirteen. Five negroes were killed near New Decatur, three persons perished at Calera, and two each at Hoyles Bluff, Gayesville and Duke.

A conservative estimate places the number of dead in the lower Middle West, Southwest and South at 50, with not fewer than 200 injured and a prop­erty loss of $3,000,000 or more.

Four persons were killed and 12 In­jured as the result of a blizzard in Nebraska, which caused two wrecks.

A St. Paul engineer saved a train­load of passengers in Minnesota. He feared a washout, and ran slowly as he approached a bridge. His engine plunged through the bridge. His fire­man was killed and he was fatally hurt.

NO SCHEDULE REVISION

The Occasion for the Special Session Is Not Set Forth, But It Is to Be

Held Primarily to P.cvise the Tauyff.

Washington.— Following a proclama­tion by President Wilson, calling upon the Sixty-third Congress to meet in extraordinary session April 7, it was learned that, instead of a revision of the tariff schedule by schedule as had been generally expected, only one bill composed of 16 sections and 4900 items will be presented at the first Demo­cratic caucus to be held early in April.

The occasion for the special session is not set forth by the President, but it is known, of course, that it is to be held primarily for the purpose of re­vising the tariff. Other subjects may be considered, dependent on the state of public business and the disposition of the administration and the party leaders in Congress. The President's proclamation follows:

“Whereas, Public interest requires that the Congress of the United States shall be convened in extra session at 12 o’clock noon, on the 7t.h day of April, to receive such communications as shall be made by the Executive.

“Now, therefore, I, Woodrow’ Wilson, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim and de­clare that an extraordinary occasion requires the Congress of the United States to convene In extra session at the Capitol in the City of Washington, on the -7th day of April, 1913, at 12 o’clock, noon, of which all persons who shall at that time be entitled to act as members thereof are hereby re­quired to take notice. Given under my hand and the seal of the United States of America, the 17th day of March, in the year of our Lord, 1913, and of the Independence of the United States the one hundred and thirty-seventh.

“WOODROW WILSON. “WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN,

“Secretary of State.”At the beginning of the new Con­

gress only tariff revision will be con­sidered. There is, however, a strong demand for action at this time on a hanking and currency hill, and it is possible the leaders may yield to the wishes of these who are insisting cn action along this line.EXTRA SENATE SESSION CLOSES

Washington.— The extra session of the Senate, which convened March 4, under the call of President Taft to confirm the nominations of his suc­cessor, adjourned, having just been in­formed by President Wilson that he had no further communication to make. Activity on capital hill is therefore suspended until April 7, when the extra session will meet.

The party conference of Democratic Senators adopted the report of the Patronage Committee of which Sen­ator Overman, of North Carolina, is chairman. It recommended that nearly sixty employes on the Senate payroll he dropped and their offices abolished, thus saving $42,000 annually.

Washington.— An opinion by Justice Holmes in the Supreme Court con­curred in by his associates upheld de­cision of the United States Circuit Court for the district of Kansas hold­ing tiie Kansas bank deposit guaranty law to be a valid enactment. After the United States Supreme Court held the Oklahoma and Kansas bank guar­anty laws to be valid exercise of the police power of the State, the banks of Kansas joined in attacking the Kansas law from another angle. Banks to the number of 142 in the State of Kansas joined in bringing a test suit to restrain the State bank­ing commissioner from enforcing the law on the ground that it was dis­criminatory.

ADRIANOPLE SEEKS TERMS.

Garrison Asks for Honors of War, Which Bulgars Refuse.

Sofia.— Shukri Pasha, the heroic commander of the long beleagured Turkish garrison at Adrianople, has given up the fight. He-offered to sur­render on the condition that his troops should be awarded the houors of war and be permitted to reta n their arms. The Bulgarians refused to accept the surrender on these terms, holding out for an uncondi- Lion surrender..

New York.— A large brick and steel vault in Martin Simons & Sons’ pawn­shop at the southeast corner of Hester and Eldridge streets, a place of safe­keeping that was guarded with bur­glar alarm wires and was believed to be impregnable except against the as­saults of some high explosive, was broken into during the night and robbed of between $250,000 and $300,- 0 0 0 . worth of unset diamonds, gold watches, $3,600 in cash and $2,400 in checks.

It was one of the most daring and successful robberies committed in this city in many years. That the entire vault was not cleaned of its con te^ri. is due to the fact, it is believed, that the burglars were so astounded at the value of the gems that were theirs simply for the reaching out of their hands, that they lost their nerve and took only what they could carry away in their pockets.

Martin Simons, head of the firm, is the pioneer 1 per cent, pawnbroker, and has been in business at the same corner for twenty-one years. The vault was built many years ago. It is 9 feet high, 12 feet wide and the same depth. The walls are of brick 2 feet thick. The roof is reinforced, under the layer of brick, by steel rails. This is the only part of the construction in which metal enters.

The vault is Duilt against the Eld­ridge street wall in the rear, and is hidden from the main part cf the shop by a wooden partition usual in such stores. The doors of the vault are protected by electric wires connecting with the burglar alarm. A gas jet burns at all hours in front of this big vault. From the shop a stairway lea 1= to the cellar covered by a trap door. '

The thieves tunnelled under the cel­lar wall, popped up through the floor and got into the vault by making a hole through 2 feet of brick. In doing this they evaded a network of burg’ar alarm wires and made no sound that was heard outside. They came and went through a hole in the ground, so small that a child would have to squirm to pass it.

The contents of the vault were worth aout $800,000. Negotiable bonds worth $130,000 they cast aside, and $100,000 in negotiable notes they scat­tered on the floor of the vault or jam­med in pigeon holes. Neither did they take many thousands of dollars of watches. Diamonds were their game. The police think two men did the job.

The bundle of loot they carried away must have staggered them. No­body saw them go. Because of recent east side robberies there is a special detective squad scattered through that territory. The store is protected also by the Holmes system. Yet the perpe­trators worked their will and went away and there isn’t a clue except tools and gloves that they left in the store.MANY GEORGIA TOWNS FLOODED

Heavy Rains Cause the Savannah and Other Rivers to Overflow.

Atlanta, Ga.— Macon, Augusta, Co­lumbus, Albany and other Georgia cities are being partly flooded as a result of the heavy rains which have caused the Savannah, Ocmuigee, Chat­tahoochee and Flint rivers to leave their banks. Macon and Augusta so far are the principal sufferers. At Ma­con a levee broke and a portion of the city on the Ocmuigee was flooded.

William Wilson, an employe of the Interstate Chemical Co., was drowned as he was telephoning his sister, that the flood was threatening the plant. Many families have been driven from their homes and the property loss is heavy.

Installment 3An English lieutenant at Oswego

had described the multitudious fleet of canoes upon Ontario carrying this levy to its place of landing in the lake beyond, and a vagrant French­man bad told him plainly what it was. It was an army of six hundred men, he boasted, going to the Ohio, "to cause all the English to quit those parts.” It was plain to every Eng­lish governor in the colonies who had his eyes open that the French would not stop with planting a fort upon an obscure branch of the Alleghany, but lhat they would indeed press forward t. take possession of the Ohio, drive every English trader forth, draw all the native tribes to their interest by force or favor, and close alike the western lands and the western trade in very earnest against all the king's subjects.

Governors See the Danger.Governor Djnwiddle was among the

first to see the danger and the need for action, as, in truth, was very nat­ural. In office and out, his study had been the colonial trade, and he had been merchant and official now a long time. He was one of the twenty stockholders of the Ohio company, and had come to his governorship in Virginia with his eye upon the west­ern country. He had but to look about, him to perceive that Virginia would very likely be obliged to meet the crisis unaided, if, indeed, he could Induce even her to meet It.

Governor Hamilton, of Pennsylva­nia, also saw how critically affairs stood, it is true, and v*hat ought to be done. Hi:, agents had met and acted v ith (he agents of the Ohio company already in seeking Indian alliances and fixing upon posits of vantage be­yond the Alleghanies. But the Penn­sylvania assembly could by no argu­ment or device be induced to vote money or measures in the business. The placid Quaker traders were as stubborn as the stolid German farm­ers. They opposed it because they could not for the life of them see the necessity of parting with their money to send troops upon so remote an errand

Dinwiddie Does Not Hesitate.Dinwiddle did not wait or parley.

He acted first and consulted his legis­lature afterwards. It was in his Scots blood to take the business very strenuously, and in his trader's blood to take it very anxiously. He had kept himself advised from the first of the movements of the French.

^ Their vanguard had scarcely reached Presque Isle ere he dispatched let­ters to England apprising the govern­ment of the danger. Answer had come very promptly, too, authorizing him to build forts upon the Ohio, if he could get the money from the Bur­gesses; and meantime, should the French trespass further, "to require of them peaceably to depart” "If they would not desist for a warning,"

Becomes a Messenger.

said his majesty, “we do hereby strict­ly charge and command you to drive them off by force of arms.”

Even to send a warning to the French was n<̂ easy matter when the king’s letter came and the chill autumn rains were at hand. The mountain streams, alread y swollen, presently to be full of ice, would be very dangerous for men and horses, aud tire forests were likely enough to teem V hh hostile savages, now the French were there.

A proper messenger was found and dispatched, nevertheless— young Major George Washington, of the Northern district. The errand lay In his quar­ter; his three years of surveying at the heart of the wilderness had made him an experienced woodsman and

hardy traveler, had tested his pluck and made proof of his character; he was well known upon the frontier, and his friends were very influential, and very cordial in recommending him for this or any other manly service that called for steadiness, hardihood and resource.

Dinwiddle Knows His Man.Dinwiddie had been a correspondent

of Lawrence Washington’s ever since the presidency of the Ohio company had fallen to the young Virginian upon the death of his neighbor, Thomas Lee, writing to him upon terms of intimacy. He knew the stock of which George, the younger brother, came and the interests in which he might be expected to embark with ardor; he could feel that he took small risk In selecting such an agent Kuowtng him, too, thus through his family and like a friend, he did not hesitate in writing to Governor Hamilton of Penn­sylvania, to speak of this youth of twenty-one as "a person of distinc­tion.”

Washington performed his errand as Dinwiddie must have expected he would. He received his commission and the governor's letter to the French commandant on the last day of Octo­ber, and set out the same day for the mountains. Jacob Vanbraam, the Dutch soldier of fortune who had been his fencing master at Mount Vernon, accompanied him as interpreter, and Christopher Gist, the hardy, self-reli­ant frontier trader, whom the Ohio company had employed to make inter­est for them among the Indians of the far region upon the western rivers which he knew so well, was engaged to act as his guide and counselor; and with a few servants and pack horses he struck straight into the for­ests in the middle of bleak November

Reaches the French Fort.It was the eleventh of December

before the jaded party rode, in the cold dusk, into the drenched and miry clearing where the dreary little fort stood that held the French command­er. Through two hundred and fifty miles and more of forest they bad dragged themselves over swollen riv ers, amidst an almost ceaseless fall of rain or snow, with not always an In­dian trail, or the beaten track of the bison, to open the forest growth for their flagging horses, and on the watch always against savage treachery

It had become plain enough before they reached their destination what answer they should get from the French. Sixty miles nearer home than these lonely headquarters of the French commander*at Fort Le Boeuf they had come upon an outpost where the French colors were to be seen fly­ing from a house from which an Eng­lish trader had been driven out, and the French officers there had uttered brutally frank avowal of their pur­pose in that wilderness as they sat at wine with the alert and temperate young Virginian. “ It was their abso­lute design,” they said, "to take pos­session of the Ohio, and, by G ,they would do it. . . They weresensible th e English could raise two men for their one, yet they knew their motions were too slow and dilatory to prevent any undertaking of theirs."

The Commandant Courteous.The commandant at Fort Le Boeuf

received the wayworn ambassador very courteously, and even graciously — a thoughtful, elderly man, Washing­ton noted him, "with much the air of a soldier”— but would make no pro­fession even that he would consider the English summons to withdraw; and the little party of Englishmen presently turned back amid the win­ter's storms to carry through the frozen wilderness a letter which boast­ed the French lawful masters of all the continent beyond the Alleghanies.

When Washington reached Wil­liamsburg. in the middle of January, 1754, untouched by even the fearful fatigues and anxieties of that daring journey, he had accomplished nothing but the establishment of his own char­acter in the eyes of the men who were to meet the crisis now at hand He had been at Infinite pains, at every stage of the dreary adventure, to win and hold the confidence of the Indi­ans who were accounted friends of the English, and had displayed an older man’s patience, address and fortitude in meeting all their subtle shifts; and he had borne hardships that tried even the doughty Gist.

When the horses gave out, he had left them to come by easier stages, while he made his way afoot, with only a single companion, across the weary leagues that iay upon his home­ward way. Gist, his comrade in the hazard, had been solicitously "unwil­ling he should undertake such a travel, who had never been used to walking before this time,” but the imperative

young commander would not be stayed, and the journey was made, spite of sore feet and frosts and ex­hausting weariness. He at least knew what the French were about, with what strongholds and forces, and could afford to wait orders what to do next.

The Governor Had Been Busy.Dinwiddld had not been idle while

Washington went his perilous errand. He had gotten the burgesses together by the first of November, before Washington had left the back settle­ments to cross the wilderness, and would have gotten a liberal grant of money from them had they not fallen In their debates upon the question of the new fee charged, since his coming, for every grant out of the public lands of the colony, and insisted that it j should be done away with. “ Sub- i jects.” they said, very stubbornly, "cannot be deprived of the least part of their property without their con­sen t;” and such a fee, they thought, was too like a tax to be endured.

They would withhold the grant, they declared, unless the fee was abolished, notwithstanding they saw plainly enough in how critical a case things stood in the west; and the testy gov­ernor very indignantly sent them home again. He ordered a draft of 200 men from the militia, neverthe­less, with the purpose of assigning the command to Washington and see­ing what might be done upon the Ohio without vote of the assembly.

Defies the Burgesses.A hard-headed Scotchman past sixty

could not be expected to wait upon a body of wrangling and factious pro­vincials for leave to perform his duty in a crisis, and, inasmuch as the ob­ject was to save their own lands, and perhaps their own persons, from the French, could hardly be blamed for proposing in his anger that they be taxed for the purpose by act of par­liament. "A governor," he exclaimed, "is really to be pitied in the dis­charge of of his duty to his king and | country in having to do with 6uch obstinate. self-conceited people!” Some money he advanced out of his own pocket.

When Washington came back from his fruitless mission, Dinwiddie or-

A Ragged Regiment.

dered his journal printed and copies sent to all the colonial governors. “ As it was thought advisable by his honor the governor to have the following ac­count of my proceedings to and from the French on Ohio committed to print,” said the modest young major, “ I think I can do no less than rpolo- | gize, in some measure, for the number­less imperfections in it.” But it was a very manly recital of noteworthy j

things, and touched the imagination i and fears of every thoughtful man ! who read it quite as near the quick as the urgent and repeated letters of the troubled Dinwiddie.

Virginia, it turned out, was after all more forward than all her neigh­bors when it came to action. The Pennsylvania assembly very coolly declared they doubted his ma­jesty’s claim to the lands on the Ohio, and the assembly in New York followed suit. “ It appears," they said, | in high judicial tone, "that the French have built a fort at the place called French Creek, at a considerable dis­tance from the river Ohio, which may, i but does not by any evidence or in­formation appear to us to be, an in vasion of any of his majesty’s colo­nies."

The governors of the other colonies I whose safety was most directly men­aced by the movements of the French in tlu west were thus even less able to act than Dinwiddie. For the Vir­ginia burgesses, though they would not yield the point of the fee upon land grants, did not mean to leave Major Washington tn the lurch, and before an expedition could be got afoot had come together again to vote

, a s" n of money.A Regiment Raised.

It would be possible with the sum I they appropriated to put 300 or 400

j m en into the field; and as spring drew on, raw volunteers began to gath­er in some numbers at Alexandria— a ragged regiment, made up for the most part of -idle and shiftless men, who j did not always have shoes, or even | shirts, of their own to wear; anxious I to get their eight-pence a day, but 1

not anxious to work or submit to dis­cipline. ’Twas astonishing how steady and how spirited they showed themselves when once they( had shak­en their lethargy off and were on the march or face to lace with the enemy.

A body of woodsmen had been hurried forward in February, ere spring had opened, to make a clearing? and set to work upon a fort at the forks of the Ohio; but it was the 2d of April before men enough could be collected at Alexandria to begin the main movement towards the frontier, and by that time it was too late to checkmate the French. The little force sent forward to begin fortifica­tions had set about their task very sluggishly and without skill, and their commander had turned back again with some of his men to re join the forces behind him before thn petty works he should have stayed to finish were well begun.

Compelled to Surrender .When, therefore, on the 17th of

April, the river suddenly filled witb canoes bearing an a rm y of more than 500 Frenchmen, who put cannon ashore, and summoned the 40 men who held the place to surrender, or be blown Into the water, there was no choice but to comply. The young eu- sign who commanded the little gar­rison urged a truce till he could com­municate with his superiors, but the French commander would brook no delay. The boy might either take his men off free and unhurt, or else fight and face sheer destruction; and the nearest succor was a little force of 150 men under Colonel Washington, who bad not yet topped the Alleghanies In their painful work ot cutting a way through the forests for their field pieces and wagons.

Second in Command.The governor’s plans had been al­

tered by the assembly’s vote of money and the additional levy of men which It made possible. Col. John Fry, whom Dinwiddie deemed "a man of good sense, and one of our best math­ematicians,” had been given the com­mand in chief, and Washington had been named his second in command, with the rank of lieutenant colonel. "Dear George,” wrote Mr. Corbin of the Governor’s council, "I enclose you your commission. God prosper you with it!" and the brunt of tho work in fact fell upon the younger man.

But 300 volunteers could be got­ten together; and, all too late, haK of the raw levy were sent forward under Washington to find or make a way for wagons and ordnance to the Ohio. The last days of May were almost at hand before they had cross­ed the main ridge of the Alleghenies, so inexperienced were they in the lough labor of cutting a road through the close-set growth and over the sharp slopes of the mountains, and so ill equipped; and by that time it was already too late by a full month and more to forestall the French, who had only to follow the open highway of the Alleghany to bring what force they would to the key of the west at the forks of the Ohio.

Build Fort Duquesne.As the spring advanced, the French

force upon the river grew from 500 to 1,400 men. and work was pushed rapidly forward upon fortifications such as the little band of Englishmen they had ousted had not thought of attempting— a veritable fort, albeit of a rude frontier pattern, which Its builders called Buquesne, in honor of their governor.

Washington could hit upon no w a- ter course that would afford him quick transport; 'twould have been folly, besides, to take his handful of ragged provincials into the presence of an intrenched army. He was fain to go into camp at Grand Meadows, just across the ridge of the mountains, and there await his colonel with sup­plies and an additional handful of men.

Becomes Comander-in-Chief.It was "a charming field for an eu

counter," the young commander thought, but it was to be hoped the enemy would not find their way to it in too great numbers. An “ In­dependent Company" of provincials in the king’s pay joined him out of South Carolina, whence they had been sent forward by express orders from Eng­land and the rest of the Virginia vol­unteers at last came up to join their comrades at the Meadows— without good Colonel Fry, the doughty mathe-, matician, who had sickened and died on the way— so that there were pres­ently more than 300 men at the camp, and Washington was now their com­mander.

The officers of the Independent com­pany from South Carolina, holding their commissions from the king, would not, indeed, take their orders from Washington, with, his colonial commission merely; and, what was worse, their men would not work; but there was no doubt they would fight with proper dignity and spirit for his majesty, their royal master. The first blood had already been drawn, on the 28th ot May, before reinforce­ments had arrived, when Washington had but Just come to camp.

We need not let our heaj ts be trou­bled. for finally, all that 1 Is unavail­ing sinks into rest. Eveiry road by which men go dips gradually into the valley. No climb, however bold, but Is touched at its close by thie shadow; no quest in undiscovered bourns but ends in a resting place inhere tired multitudes are gathered. I Somehow the wearied river finds itV way at last to the sea. The encompassing peace of the silent earth wants on our frettjng There is nothin;; soiharassing that it < annot be bo;ne ini the fore- Unov.J-o'lge of its brevity. \ No dis­turbance or upheaval can ever- visit mortal mind when once it has been gathered to the brotherhood of, dust.

Dark Space Among the Stars.Absolutely dark spaces among (he

starj have puzzled astronomers since the time of Herschel. In milky way photographs Dr. Kopff has noticed an almost complete absence of faint stars immediately around certain nebulae, with an abundance Of such stars with­in the negulae and far outside. A late suggestion by Dr Espin is that

. the margins of such nebulae may be loo diffuse to become illuminated and yet. dense enougli to absorb light. If such an assumption be made he finds 'hat it explains not only the blank surrounding spaces, but the dark holes and lanes within the bright nebulae

Matching Wits.Jones Is a very little man, bit-: be

always has his wits about him. The other day he was alone in his subur­ban villa when a formldable-iooklng tramp knocked at the door and Inso­lently demanded refreshments

' " I ’m looking for work.” he said, ) "and 1 want something to eat at once, j or there’!! be some trouble”

And he coolly sat down on the step.Now, Jones didn’t get. flustered a bit.

but got an alarm clock and wound it up. Then he went into the front room where his voice could be heard by the tramp. , Causing the alarm to

i ring, he shouted Into the clock“Halloa! Are you there? Give me

thn police station— sharp, please."! The tramp was all attention and

thought that Jones must be on the I telephone exchange. Then he heard

the following counterfeit conversa- : tion:

"Are you the police station? Please ■ rend a constable to my house at once

French Working Hours.j The first edict regulating the hours J of latmr in France was the decree of

1848, which provided that “ the day of ' the laborer in manufactures and work- ; shops shall not exceed 12 hours ot : effective work." In 1892 a law was

passed regulating the labor of chil-. dren, women and girls, but not affect-

j ing male workers. Then came the j modification of 1900, limiting the I hours of all employees to 11 , and also

providing that from March SO, 1902. the legal day of labor should be re­duced to 1014 liours, and two years later to 19 hours, except in cases or under conditions making a longer day necessary.

WORK AHEAD FOR LEGISLATURE

Jury Reform. Constitutional Con­vention and Other Matters

NEARLY A THOUSAND BILLS

No More Measures Introduced Except by Unanimous Consent—Less Than

100 Have Reached Governor’s Desk—May Adjourn in April.

(Special Trenton Correspondence.)Trenton.— Jury reform and constitu­

tional convention will hold the centre of the stage in the work of the Legis­lature, and it will be a little bit the busiest time since the session of this year began. Before President Wilson left tlie State the efforts of the mem­bers of both branches of the lawmak­ing body were concentrated upon sev­eral matters in which Governor Wil­son was deeply interested and there resulted a piling up of matters which were regarded as of relatively smaller importance, but which will now have to be taken up. There have thus far been introduced nearly a thousand bills in the Senate and House, of which more than two-thirds have made their appearance in the Assembly. No one expects that one-third of the whole number will eventually get through and become laws, as less than a hundred have thus far reached the desk of the Governor after having passed both branches. Despite the fact that there is this awful jam of work tn sight there was joint action looking to final adjournment for the year not later than April 3. From now- on the plan will be to move as rapidly as possible with that end in view, and it has been agreed that there shall be no more bills introduced except by unanimous consent.

Constitutional Amendment Fight.The fight over the constitutional

amendment bill will go on. This has developed into a contest between the North Jersey and the South Jersey counties, with the dividing line as clearly defined as was the famous Ma­son and Dixon line between the North and the South before and during the Civil War. The smaller counties in the southern part of the State insist \hat the representation in the conven­tion provided for to change the Con­stitution of the State shall not be such as will deprive them of any of the powers which they now possess, while the northern counties are fighting for representation in the convention ac­cording to population, which would give them a large balance of power in all matters that might come up. The bill has been amended In the House, and is ready for passage by that body, unless the fight thickens again such a manner that there is further delay.

Result of Deals.From now it is expected that much

of the legislation which gets through will be the result of deals, or giving and taking of votes in order to get certain measures through. There will also be great interest in watching the trend of events as they relate to Act­ing Governor Fielder and his power to hold the party members of the Legis­lature in hand well enough to force through measures to which such strong opposition was first shown after he took the executive chair. His abil­ity of failure to hold a stiff rein upon the situation will have an important bearing upon his candidacy for nomin­ation at the primaries next Septem­ber for a full term as Governor, as his opponents will watch every move very closely and seek to take advantage of every weak point he may develop. The passage of the Fielder grade-crossing abolition measure and his signing it was his first important accomplish­ment, and puts squarely up to the Utilities Board of the State the mat­ter of which crossings must be abol­ished each year by the railroads.

Board of Health Bill.One of the interesting bills on which

there is expected to be something of a fight is that for the reorganization of the State Board of Health, which was introduced by Senator Leavitt, of Mer­cer County. The State Medical Soci­ety is said to be behind the bill and will exert its influence to have it passed. It proposes to do away with the present board and to create a health commissioner and an advisory board of five members. In some quar­ters the latter provision is regarded as needless, the argument being that if there is to be a centralization of power, authority and responsibility, the health commissioner should not be hampered by being obliged to even listen to an advisory board and, in­stead, he should be a man large enough for the big and important du­ties of the place and should be paid a suitable salary, which could be done without additional expense to the State if the advisory board idea is eliminated.

State Architect Bill.Another bill calling for reorganiza­

tion of a State department was put in and will also raise a storm of protest before it gets very far. It provides for practically an entire chunge in the method of conducting the work of the State architect, whose title and posi­tion now exist at present only by courtesy, and whose power and au­thority are so limited that the work of -the State which should be done under his control is constantly suffer­ing.

| Still another measure which is like- j ly to give the members of the Legis- | lature no little trouble is that provid- | ing for a change in the manner of ! handling the pension funds of police | departments in cities of the first class.

There has already grown up around it a big storm in the police departments themselves, and it is likely that a new bill will be introduced as the only means of stifling the opposition to the present one on the part of most of the superior officers.

Anti-loan shark legislation is an­other of the important things which is likely to come to the fore and to oc­cupy an important place on the stage until the close of the session. A bill introduced by Assemblyman Martin, of Hudson County, and passed by the House, has evoked sharp criticism from the interests which desire to have some State regulation of the swindling money lenders who deal with poor people and in small sums and charge outrageous sums for in­terest and so-called “ services." It is declared that the Martin bill is pat­terned after the Maryland loan shark law, which is characterized by those familiar with similar legislation in oth^r States as the worst law of its kind in the country. The usurious money lenders are entirely satisfied wdth the hill, which does little more than to legalize the excessive charges which they now make for loans.

Unless suitable amendments can be obtained in tlie Senate a new bill will be introduced and its passage sought. It is desired lo provide for regulation of tne loan sharks by placing them under the supervision of the State Banking and insurance Commissioner sc that in the event of violations ot tiio law there can be adequate prose­cution. The prtsent situation is that they are under no regulation and can apparently be proceeded against only under the disorderly house section of the criminal laws of the State, under which it is difficult to obtain a con­viction. The matter will not be ai- owed to rest, and if suitable legists

ticn is not obtained this year a strong permanent organization will be formed to carry on the fight until the loan

: sharks are either properly regulated | and confined within’ bounds which will

prevent continuance of their swindl­ing operations, or are entirely driven out of business. Many business and professional men in Newark, Jersey City and populous sections of the city have recently become interested in the matter and will lend their moral and financial support to any future work which may be necessary to ac-. complish the desired end. The serv­ices of an expert of the Russell Sage

| foundation have also been actively en- j listed, that organization being repre- ( sented by a man who has followed the | course of anti-loan shark legislation i in every State where it has been an

issue, as well as in Congress.

Good Luck at Coast Resorts.

Probe Would Cost $15,000.Trenton is pumping between 3,000,-

000 and 5,000,000 gallons of water every day more than is being used by the people, according to an estimate of L. B. Shoemaker of the Waterworks Equipment Company of New York City. There are, he says, undoubtedly a large number of leaks in the mains and service pipes. Mr. Shoemaker, who is an expert in tracing leaks, ap­peared before the City Commission by invitation. He said a complete in­vestigation of the water conditions of the city, locating all the leaks, would cost the city about $15,000, and would require from nine months to a year.

Jury Bill Battle.Practically every Sheriff in the State

was against the jury bill in its original and effective form, and the House passed it after tacking on amendments which make it practically inoperative or effective because of the conditions whic hthe referendum imposes. In its present shape the interests which had been opposing the bill are entirely sat­isfied, but they admit that there is grave doubt of it passing the Senate without further amendment, which will practically restore it to its first form of effectiveness. The battle over it will continue throughout the week.Elected by One Vote.

Arthur J. Tams, of the Fourteenth Ward, enjoys the distinction of being elected to the Board of Freeholders by only one vote. At the last election, when the smaller Board of Freehold­ers’ election was under consideration, someone in the Fourteenth Ward vot­ed for Tams’ return to the large board. Now that the court has upset the small board election Tams goes to the large board with only one vote for him and none against him.

Grade Crossings.The grade-crossing act has become

a law after years of labor and a steady fight against the railroads, and against those who considered petty details of operation as more important than the salvation of human life. Those who feel gratitude for the present measure recall with honor and sincere regard the efforts of Senator Pierce, of Union County, and men who fought with him in the Legislature a year ago, by which, though failing temporarily, the present act was made imperative as a political measure.

The Erie’s Newark Station.The State Board of Utility Commis­

sioners sat in Newark and heard the application of the Board of Works for the removal of the Erie station at Fourth avenue from the east to the west side of the tracks in order to make it unnecessary for patrons of the road to cross the tracks. The com- oany’s general passenger agent, Mr. Wallace, said the traffic from Fourth ivenue station is not large enough to variant the expenditure of much <oney there for improvements.

I President Rea’s Protest.President Rea of the Pennsylvania

: Railroad sent Governor Fielder a long protest against the lew grade crossing law. Everybody else except President Rea apparently knew that the law had been passed and signed and filed be-

I fore the letter could be received. If | the railroad man is so far behind in I business matters, it is fair to ask | whether the matters are really of the | importance he suggests. If they w'ere I really significant, he would w'ake up to

the fact that his protest was several hours too late.Little Delay in Work.

SCRAP OF PAPER LEADS TO RICHES

Learns Through Old Notice of Unclaimed $130,000.

THINK RECLUSE WAS UNCLEWashington (N. J.) Farmer Says Aged

Hermit Who Died In Philadelphia Was Not Heard From For Many Years and Believes He Was His Rel­ative.

Washington, N. J., MarcL t —Wil­liam Ruppell, a farmer, living Just out­side of Port Murray, has retained W il­liam A. Stryker to Investigate his chances of collecting one-third of an estate said to be worth $130,000 which has been w’altlng n claimant In Phila­delphia since last October. Mr. Stryker after a preliminary Investigation says he thinks the case will be established.

Ruppell a few days ago picked up a piece of newspaper which had been torn from around a package and pro­ceeded to read it. The paper w’as of a date away back last October, and among other Items contained one tell­ing of the death In Philadelphia Oct. 24 last of Marina Merllne. He was seventy-three years old and had lived as a hermit. He never worked, never spent much, but always had money. The police found a small satchel full of coin. Under a rug was found $30,- 000 In currency and also bank books showing deposits scattered through many banks totaling more than $100 .- 000.

In this recluse Ituppell thinks he rec­ognizes his uncle, who had not been heard from by the family for forty years or more.

William Ruppell has a brother Peter, who lives with him, and a sister, Mrs. David Sllker of Anderson, N. J. They will divide the money if the Philadel­phia recluse turns out to be their un­cle.

Ill Fated Boat Was Bound to Perth Amboy— Sole Survivor, Negro, Pick­ed Up by Ferryboat, Gives Vague Account of Collision.New Yot-k, March 1 In a collision

between an unidentified steamship, be­lieved to have been a tramp, the steam lighter Wyckoff, bound from Perth Amboy fp spme point up the sound, TVas sunk about 000 feet off Governors island last night- Eleven members of r crew of twelve ave believed to have been lost. The accident occurred shortly after 10 o'clock.

The first news of the accident reach­ed the ferryboat Queens, which left St. George, bound for the Battery, at 10:10 o'clock This boat was in charge of Captain Morris JI. Bunt. The Queens had progressed on its course to Manhattan as far as the south end of Governors Island, when she was hailed in the dark by a two funnel steamer. What this steamer was those who beard the signals could not make out, and the only description which the Queens was able to bring ashore was that she appeared to bo a two funnel ship and that she was headed out to sea.’ But there was uo uncertainty about the substance of the message tyhtch was shouted through the dark pess from somp megaphone QU the nameless steafiip-V

Reports Steamer Sunk.This was the ship that had just

struck a steamer and that the steamer hnd sunk. The ship in the collision which had not been hurt explained that she was bound outward and that her boats were nil lashed. Would the Queens please stand by?

The Queens did, halting in her course, and in a few moments lifeboats were lowered over the side. In these Mato Alfred Squires and Thomas Jleehan started to scour that part of the bay where the collision occurred, hut there, were no signs left of the foundererf steamer, and only one man was fourth clinging to a hit of wrefUitgp,

This map was Jeff iloyston, a negro fleck ha ml pf llu> WyckolT, who was ip a pretty wpak condition hy the time t|ip Queens men tilted him ipto one of their lifehoiits. These boats continued ip scout pbput in search of more por- sops, or at least some bodies, hut they found nothing and put hack to tho wait­ing ferry heat, over the sides of which tiie negro was soon lifted.

Survivor’s Story.After restoratives were applied from

the ship's stores Uoyston wns ahlo to tell something of what had happened, tic if was wtm safd that the foundered ship was the steamer lighter Wyct$p(f and told of her departure from Perth. Amboy. On hoard was a crow of twelve men'. These were the captain, the two engineers, the two firemen and seven deckhands.

They had all liceii on hoard at 10 last uight when the collision occurred. Whose fault this was or how it came to happen. Koylston was not able to sa.v. He was very weak, vejy bewil­dered and did not seem to have a very clear idea of what had happened. The Queens turned in its course and put hack to St. George, so that shortly aft­er m.idnight ltoyston. probably the only survivor of the wrecked Wyckoff, was taken ashore there and hurried to a hospital.

The sunken lighter Wyckoff was the property of the New York and New Jersey Steamboat company and was built in 18(>-f She was 124 feet long 2t feet in beam and 7 feet deep.

NEW HAMPSHIRE’S SENATOR.

Hollis' Election a Victory For Demo­cratic Administration.

Concord, N. II., March —Henry P. Hollis, Democrat, was elected United States senator for New Hampshire, receiving ISP votes, with 18G necessary for election

The election of Hollis followed a deadlock lasting through thirty-nine ballots. It is considered a national Democratic victory, as Hollis was sup­ported by Hie Wilson administration. The withdrawal of Edward N. Pear­son, Republican, from the .light result­ed in several Republicans casting their votes for Hollis.

Washington. March 14.—“ Good!” ex claimed President Wilson when he was told l»y- Secretary Tumulty that the New Hampshire deadlock had at last been broken by the election of Henry F. Hollis as United States sena­tor. The president was greatly pleas­ed, as the choice of Hollis insures one more vote for the slender Democratic margin of control in the senate-

Lord o f the White Elephant

the longest on record, for In 1903 Alex­ander Cralgle, of Perth, won a prize for the longest beard. The length was seven feet two and one-half Inches. Another competitor, a gen­tleman of Llandudno, was nowhere with a stubbly growth of only four feet two Inches. Mr. Craigie began to grow his beard when he was twen- ty-flve years of age. He wore it usual­ly folded up inside his waistcoat, and trimmed so as to look like an ordinary

.every-day sort of beard.The world’s record, however, was

held by Robert Latter, of Tunbridge, Wells, England, who six years ago boasted of a beard no less than six­teen feet in length, which he wore wound round his waist. Mr. Latter, who at that time was seventy-eight years of age, began to grow the beard when he was about thirty. At first he cultivated two curls beneath his chin, and as their length increased he used to wear them beneath his waistcoat. Eventually these curls attained such a length that for his own comfort he had to enclose them in a bag, which was renewed every birthday. Ulti­mately Mr. Latter plaited his beard, and as it became too large even to be carried in a bag, he wound it round his waist, and used to say that it was an excellent chest-protector and a good deal warmer than anything he could buy.

ROMAN BONES IN ENGLAND

The extension of the infirmary at Chester, England, has led to the dis­covery of the graveyard used by the twentieth legion of the Romans dur­ing their occupation of that city. The Chester infirmary occupies a site which is locally referred to as the “plague field.” The site seems to have acquired its unsavory name from the fact that casual discoveries of human remains had led to the supposition that they were the victims of the great plague. The recent unearthing of re­mains in larger numbers on the site of the extension of the infirmary led to an investigation by Prof. Robert Newstead, who now reports that the evidence proves conclusively that the infirmary field was not used as a bury­ing ground during the outbreak of the plague, and that all the burials which have been so far unearthed belong to the Roman period.

Four distinct types of graves have been uncovered. One is a tomb form­ed of local sandstone, evidently rep-

j resenting a burial of some importance, j as the walls of the tomb are covered | in plaster, and the dome of the struc- [ ture originally stood out in marked ' contrast to the surrounding surface i of the land, forming a distinct tumu- I lus. Some of the graves were formed j by placing Roman roofing tiles bear- | ing the stamp of the twentieth legion

upon the floor and also at the sides, the legionary stamps always facing in ward.

Another type of burial was formed by placing roughly hewn sandstone so that a V-shaped trough was formed for the reception of the body. A fourth

j type of grave consists of a simple trench, dug tn the solid clay at a depth of not more than two feet from the

; original land surface.[ The Roman origin of the graves Is

borne out by the fact that bronze coins of the Emperors Antonius, Pius and Commodus have been found in them. Such coins were placed usually in the mouth of the deceased, and are gen­erally referred to as “Charon's pas­sage fare,” to expedite the passage of

I the soul across the Styx, as it was be­lieved that the person who had not re­ceived the usual rites of burial and in whose mouth no fee for the ferryman

POWDER IN THE DEEP SEA FEEDING TAME CODFISH of the Stygian lake had been placed,,would wander hopelessly on its banks, while a decent interment and a small coin would obviate any disagreeable inquiries that Charon might else be inclined to make.

King Vajlravudh, Lord of the White Elephant, Possessor of Four-and- Twenty Golden Umbrellas—and many more high sounding titles, is the ruler of Siam, who succeeded his father, Chulalongkorn. He was educated in Eng­land, is an excellent linguist and has written an entertaining book on his country.

It Is calculated that in the depths of j

the sea, under 6,000 meters ot water, j there is a stratum of powder so in- j finitely fine that, were it broken in the fingers, it would penetrated the pores of the skin, this powder being made up of the remains of shells and the skeletons of little animals and plants. Each cubic centimeter of slime (or mud) that covers the bottom of the ocean, according to Harper’s Weekly, contains the remains of ten thousand millions of organisms, each one, of which is structurally as indi­vidual as the human body.

PARIS M0UCH0IR BRACELET

At Logan, near the Mull of Gallo-, way, there is a most interesting tidal fish pond. A rent in the cliffs facing the Irish channel admits the salt wa­ter through a narrow fissure, protect­ed by grating, into a circular rock ba­sin some thirty feet In diameter and twenty feet deep.

The cliffs rise high all around. Stone steps descend on one side to a ledge leveled into a footpath at the water's edge. No sooner does the vis­itor’s footfall resound on the stairs than the green water, hitherto motion­less and apparently lifeless, becomes peopled with large brown fish arising from the depths, gliding and dashing about in a state of great excitement. These are cod. which, caught on lines in the sea, have been transferred to this pond to be fattened for the table. They are fed daily by the keeper, and experience has taught them to connect the sound of footsteps with their mealtime.

Formerly a clapper used to be rung to summon them, but this was no more than a trick of the stage. The footfall on the stone is quite enough to awaken them to activity. Most of the cod, being deep-water fish, become totally blind in captivity from excess of light; but they become so tame and accustomed to their keeper as not only to feed out of his hand, but some of them allow themselves to be lifted out of the water. One may witness the strange sight of a huge cod, more than four feet long, dangled on the knee like a baby, his mouth stuffed with mussels and limpets, after which he is returned to the water with a mighty splash. On the table these fish, thus tended and fed, prove much bet­ter than fish brought straight from the open sea.

WHERE LONGITUDE BEGINS

Thousands of persons walk over this groove in a slab of stona on tha grounds of the Greenwich observatory in England without being aware that they are crossing the Greenwich me­ridian line, from which all longitude is measured. The line crosses a public foot path and the words on the stone have grown so dim that the stranger seldom notices them.

PLUS AND MINUS SIGNS

Formerly, in order to express the sign of addition, the Latin word plus (more) was abbreviated to P, which in the hast, of writing often degen­erated into a simple cross and was ul­timately adopted as such With re­gard to the sign of subtiaction. we seo in man; books published before the eighteenth century that it was written as a small horizontal stroke beneath the letters ms.

Mr. Brinkley conceals the beard in a bag beneath his shirt, and has w orn

An Easter Social.With Easter but a week off we begin

to feel the subtle influence of the mar­velous resurrection miracle, the breath of spring gives us courage, and we are all making ready to join in the loyful chorus of “ He Is Risen.”

'Tis the forgetfulness of Easter,’Tis the joyousness of'Easter,’Tis the glory of Easter,That my message brings to you.I must tell you of a novel hat sale

that a young people’s society could ar­range. Issue Invitation cards some­thing like this:A. Spring Sail of Hats from the

River-ah!A Rare Display of Headgear

forAll Sorts and Conditions of Men and

Women, to Be Capped by

An Auction Sale of Millinery.Have everything imaginable in head­

gear displayed— opera hoods, mortar boards, baby bonnets, a Mexican som­brero, polo cap, Tam O’Shanter, sailor cap, fireman’s helmet, sunbonnets, cooks and waitresses’ caps, fool’s cap, dolls’ hats, soldier caps and all sorts of up-to-date and out-of-date millinery. This will make an interesting and at­tractive display. Have band boxes with untrimmed hats and trimmings, which the guests must trim and wear. These may be auctioned off witii the others. A committee and a competent chairman will work out the details; perhaps something like a rummage sale would be profitable.

Easter Fortunes.Either children or grown-ups will en­

joy this novel pastime. Have eggs col­ored as mentioned in the following rhymes and place in an Easter pie for a table centerpiece or in a large bas­ket nest with ribbons attached:Draw the egg of violet hue,You’ll have friends both fond and true.Pink will bring you luck,A lover full of pluck.Gladly take the egg of green.For good fortune may be seen.The egg of blue,Means lovers few.Do not touch the egg of red;If you do you’ll never wed.If you draw the egg of white.Your true love you’ll see tonight.Tou’l! marry in another town,If you choose the egg of brown.

These jingles may be written with gold ink, which can be used with an ordinary pen, or the paper may be of yellow and the ink of white.. Attach the cards to the ends of the

ribbon, the eggs, of course, being con­cealed at the other end.

Procure the dainty eggs made at the candy-Shops at this season of the year, hide them every place, then let the children hunt for them. Make egg- shaped bags of tarlatan to hold the spoils or have small baskets. Award prizes of yellow chicks, rabbits, but­terflies and any of the many charming novelties provided by the stores for: the joyous season.

After this seat the little folks at tables with boxes of paint, brushes and fancy pictures. Give each one an egg with the privilege of decorating it. Now for the refreshments, which are' to be served at six o’clock, so the chil­dren will need no other meal when they return home. First serve “ magic” eggs, made by selecting good smooth potatoes; bake until almost done, then) carefully scoop out a hole large enough to hold an egg, tie the top on and replace In the oven to finish bak­ing. These are wholesome and fur­nish a mystery as to how the egg got there. Pass sandwiches and cocoa, and then comes the best of the feast— vanilla ice cream in the form of eggs | in nests of candied orange peel strips.A green wicker basket drawn by two rabbits makes an attractive centerpiece for the table.

Easter Luncheon.The Easter season seems to bring

with it an atmosphere of joyousness that makes us all exclaim:

It is a pretty fashion to be glad;Joy is the grace we say to God.So we take unusual pleasure in plan­

ning these pretty Easter week festivi­ties. A young bride is to give a beauti­ful luncheon embracing all the lovely green, violet and pink shades, but the true Easter colors are yellow and white— yellow the emblem of the sun, showing the goodness of God, and white, typical of purity and all things made new. A white or yellow egg will bear the name of each guest in­stead of place cards. They are made by confectioners and may be ordered in any size.

Fruit is served for the first course, then duchess soup, in cups. This is made from white stock slightly thick­ened; rub the yolks of hard-boiled eggs through a grater and sprinkle over the top of each cup just before serving. Chicken breasts or squab, with cucumbers, diced potatoes and as­paragus tips will follow. An egg salad is made from the yolks of hard-boiled eggs mixed with minced ham, replaced in the whites and served in nests of watercress. The dessert will be New York ice cream, which Is yellow, frozen in a ring mold, with egg-shaped dabs of whipped cream in the center.

Shower for an Easter Bride.So often I have only space to give

suggestions that are echoes that float in to me from far and near. For in­stance, a delightful shower to be ar­ranged for a dear little Easter bride who loves dainty belongings and has only herself to depend upon in prepar­ing a most modest trousseau. Eight of her girl friends are to have a thimble party, and this is what they are going to do: Make just the dearest negli­gee of white albatross lined with pink silk and a boudoir cap with pink roses and pink bows, all to be inclosed tn a big rose paper covered bandbox and presented at the table when refresh­ments are served. The centerpiece is to be a big basket filled with spring flowers, and the favors are the dear­est hat bon-bon boxes you can possibly imagine. The place cards are hat shaped and all done in water colors with flower trimmings.

Variation of “Blind Man's Buff.”Here is a way to play “Blindman”

that may be new to some of our young readers. Form a circle and “count out” to see who shall be “ it.” Number each player, and the “ blind man” re­mains in the middle trying to catch the two whose number he calls, when they must take each other’s places. When he has called on three or four couples to change and has caught no one he says “one hundred,” when every one must change, and the chances are there will be a victim.

Captured at Much Risk, Their Pecu­niary Value Great—Are “Baited”

to Induce Them to Eject Valu­able Poison.

The majority of snakes are not, as most people suppose, aggressive in their habits, but, like the British viper, far more anxious to get out of the way of the human intruder than into it. But there are a few famous, or infamous, exceptions, aDd the mam­ba— one of the largest of the cobras, and a native of Africa— is said to be the most dangerous reptile in the world. It will fly at anything and anybody; goes out of its way to pick a quarrel with every passer-by, and has even been known to come down from a tree where It was resting, ap­parently fast asleep, to try conclu­sions with a man armed with a gun. The only snake that at all approaches the mamba in ferocity is the great king cobra, or hamadryad of the east, which is larger than the mamba and generally quite as ready to interfere with any living creature that comes within its ken. It has been known to chase a man on horseback, and so fast can it travel that it is said none but a swift-footed animal has any chance of escape. The poison of both these snakes is so powerful that, as some one once stated in an examina­tion paper on reptiles, “ even a scient­ist when bitten by either of these ferocious creatures, ceases to he inter­ested in the matter after the space of a few minutes.” Among the Austra­lian cobras, the pitvipers of America, and the great West African vipers, there are certain species that prefer the offensive to the defensive method, and in most cases it is the aggressive varieties that carry the most poison­ous fangs.

Snake-baiting is an amusement that few persons would care to indulge in, but it appears that this hazardous occupation ia an actual business in certain parts of Australia. The poison is said to te invaluable in the prepara­tion of particular medicines, and is also much sought after by scientists and experimenters. Its value is such, indeed,, that the snake poison col­lected by the natives of New South Wales has been sold for as much as a sovereign to twenty-five shillings a grain, which works out at the amaz­ing figure of $30,000 per pound troy. The buisiness of snake-catching is naturally exceedingly dangerous, but some of the Australian snake hunters are so expert that they can take their quarry with no other weapon but their hands. While one attracts the rep­tile's attention another creeps up be­hind and grasps the snake by the neck, and so holds it until it can bo transferred to a cage or bag. The reptiles are then taken to their perma­nent cages, where they are at inter­vals “ baited” with a specially pre­pared instrument, upon whose end is a rubber band encircling a small sheet of glass. The snake bites through the rubber and deposits its venom on the glass, which is then scraped into a phial and the contents sealed down. The snake, once cap­tured without injury, is a constant source of revenue, as the poison is quickly secreted afresh, ready for the next “ baiting.” Thus, at last, the snake, whose reputation has hitherto been mainly earned in its capacity for destroying life, may now be said to be an important agent in its preserva­tion.

Government Maps.It may be of interest to touring au

tomobilists, bicyclists and even suffra­gette “hikers” to know that the gov­ernment will furnish at the trifling cost of 5 cents accurate maps of all sections of the country east of the Mississippi river. These maps each cover a section about 20 miles square, and, as they are nearly two feet square, they have a scale of about an inch to the mile. On this scale every road and byroad can be readily dis­tinguished. Prominent houses along the highways are set out, as well as every stream and branch.

A feature that is specially desirable is the system of contour lines which copiously cover the maps These show the varying elevation, there be­ing a distance of 50 feet elevtion be­tween each line. One may thus choose between two roads leading to his des­tination, selecting from the slightest inspection of the map the one show­ing the least hills.

These maps are kept for sale in the offices of the geological survey, on F street between Thirteenth and Four­teenth streets northwest. The price just covers the cost of lithographing — Washington Star.

Extraordinary Head-Dress.An ornithologist in Mexico, whole

collecting birds for the National mu­seum, caught sight of a blackbird— one of the Mexican cowbirds— which seemed to have a snow-white crest. This would be an extraordinary speci­men for his cabinet, and after consid­erable trouble he succeeded in shoot­ing it. To his further astonishment, the supposed crest proved to be a piece of white cloth stitched into the scalp and trimmed to represent the comb of a cock. The only explanation he c(*ild imagine was that the opera tion had been done by some of the In­dian natives when the bird was very young. The wounds of the operation were entirely healed and the bird seemed well and cheerful under its novel adornment.— Harper's Weekly.

“Stagger” Oil.From the beginning of September

until November a small fish called stickleback is caught iu considerable quantities off the island of Dunamunde, at the mouth of the Dwina river, in the Gulf of Riga, and also near the island of Semgallen, in the Dwina river, near Dunaberg. Russia. The fishermen make an oil from this fish which Is very useful in the leather and harness industry as a preservative The name of this fish is “ Stichling' in German, the common name h

Steady use of either tea or coffee often produces alarming symptoms as the poison (caffeine) contained in these beverages acts with more po­tency in some-persons than in others.

“ I was never a coffee drinker,” writes an 111. woman, “ but a tea drink­er. I was very nervous, had frequent spells of sick headache and heart trouble, and was subject at times to severe attacks of bilious colic.

“No end of sleepless' nights— would have spells at night when my right side would gart numb and tingle like a thousand needles were pricking my flesh. A t times I could hardly put my tongue out of my mouth and my right eye and ear were affected.

“ The doctors told me I was liable to become paralyzed at any time, so I was in constant dread. I took no end of medicine— all to no good.

“ The doctors told me to quit using tea, but I thought I could not live without it— that it was my only stay. I had been a tea drinker for twenty- five years; was under the doctor’s care for fifteen.

“About six months ago, I finally quit tea and commenced to drink Postum.

“ I have never had one spell of sick headache since and only one light attack of bilious colic. Have quit hav­ing those numb spells at night, sleep well and my heart is getting stronger all the time.” Name given upon re­quest.

Postum now comes in concentrated, powder form, called Instant Postum. It is prepared by stirring a level te„- spoonful in a cup of hot water, adding sugar to taste, and enough cream to bring the color to golden brown.

Enemies of votes for women, in search of arguments to confound the orators of the cause, may use for what it is worth the following incident which happened in Madison square one day recently:

A young woman of pleasing and pic­turesque aspect came northward lrom Twenty-third street across the square. She struggled under the weight of a dog-hamper, and inside one could see a bright-eyed, restless fox terrier, eager to be let out. . The woman car­ried a leash in her left hand, and the dog had on a collar with a snap. An interested observer followed the wom­an. She ,struggled on six blocks up Madison avenue- before she reached her destination, a residence on the east side of the street. Then she un­locked the hamper, snapped the leash on the dog’s collar, and took him in­side the house. Why had she carried an able-bodied, 25-pound fox terrier, who wanted to be let out, all that dis­tance?— New York Evening Post.

RED SCALY SPOTS ON HAND Many a girl with a soft voice pos­sesses a marble heart.

572 Walnut St., Columbia, Pa.— “Early in the spring of last year I noticed small red scaly spots appear­ing on the palm of my left hand and on several fingers of my right hand. They itched and burned and when scratched or irritated in any way they formed into sores. The spots spread constantly and in a short time both hands were affected causing them to be very unsightly. After a time they became so raw that I could not even put them in water. It was pronounced eczema.. “I tried various remedies but with no relief. I noticed the Cuticura Soap and Ointment advertised and decided to try them. Every night before retiring I washed my hands with'Cuticura Soap and warm water and applied a thin coat of Cuticura Ointment. In three nonths I was completely cured of my rouble.” (Signed) Miss M.

/ / / a ? / I Sx-WvES.eloquent messages from home. But v I S ldespite its unassuming manner the fillprimrose has linked with its his- tory a tale of political honors. It is an heraldic flower giving name to a noble Scottish house on whose shield fJijSIf;It is graven with a motto that, trans- lated, reads: “ Early youth is charm­ing." Besides this, it was taken as the symbol of a political career more bold, brilliant and strange than any other of its time. The statesman wasLord Beaconsfield, and in connection '----------with him there was established in England a new festival called Primrose Day.

Mythology as well as history claims the hum­ble little flower, and tells a tale of its origin. The story is that a beautiful youth namer Paralisos died of grief over the loss of his love, and was metamorphosed into the primrose, which in its early days bore his name.

The fair spring blossoms which Mother Earth sent forth to herald the coming of Easter have been gossiping about each other. The tales they tell about the tulip, that bright favorite of Orien­tal lands, besides being highly romantic, verge on the sensational. Its notorious career has been freely discussed among the less Brilliant flowers, some of which, in spite of their sweet, gentle dispositions, resent the tulip’s regal bearing and courtly airs. Few people have ever heard the stories they tell. In this busy, hustling age only poets and occasionally other unpractical folk find time to “trace the family trees” and history of flowers.

But the tulip, as well as the other blossoms that are talked about, will probably be welcomed even more cordially than of old into the churches and the homes of the best families after its strange and wonderful past becomes known. The gay-petaled blossom gets its name from a simi­larity to the Turkish headdress, and one of the chief national festivals in the Sultan's land is known as the feast of tulips. But the proud flow­er has done something more than please the Turks with its beauty.

Once upon a time it held just as great an in­fluence over the financial affairs of some families' as Wall street has had over those of others. This all happened something over 300 years ago, when the tulip was first taken to western Europe.

It was immediately enthroned as czar In the floral kingdom, and so great was the rage for It in Holland and France that many families famed for wealth were bankrupted by it. The new­comer’s beauty made even the wise, staid Dutcli florists mad, and speculation in costly bulbs be­came a terrible gambling mania among them. A rare specimen often won a prize as high as that paid for a high-stepping race horse or a fine diamond. Fortunes changed hands daily in bets over the final outcome of almost priceless seed­ling bulbs. The gambling reached such a height that the government finally had to Issue a proc­lamation to suppress it. During three years tulips yielded to the city of Haariem the snug little sum of $50,000,000. The finest bulbs are still brought from that Holland town, and are descendants of those famous tulips.

While this financial career of the tulip is most interesting in speculating circles, the poets love best the tale that tells how the young Persan always makes it the emblem of his declaration of love. The turbaned swain sends to the lady of his dreams the most brilliant tulip he can find. The message it bears is that like the flower his countenance is all on fire and his heart has been reduced to a coal by the intense warmth of his love.

The well beloved violet Is another gentle little flower that has been a prominent figure In his­tory. When the first Napoleon was in exile It was adopted as his emblem by his followers. A

bunch of violets worn by a Frenchman, or seen in his home, was a secret message that he was loyal to the exiled chieftain's cause.

Ion was the name bestowed upon the violet by the imaginative Greek who loved to people the petals of every blossom and the ripples of every rill with fair creations of their fancy. According to mythology the name was derived from la, the daughter of Midas and the betrothed ot Atys. The story runs that Diana, desiring to conceal the maid from Apollo, transformed her into a violet. Another myth about the birth of the flower says that Jupiter caused the first violets to spring from the earth as food for the persecuted la while she was hiding in the form of a white heifer from the fury of Juno.

The verse makers have a special fondness for the tiny flower, and love to translate the message it is trying to tell to the rest of creation.

It is a singular fact that some flowers suggest pensiveness and even melancholy, while in form, color and bearing others speak only of gladness. While the personality of the flower may be some­what responsible for its effect on the human moods, more, perhaps, is due to the strain of poets’ moods. Most of the Easter flowers seem to be message bearers of joy and hope, lifting their faces to the blue skies in happy worship rather than in sadness. It seems to be natural for poets to give names and human attributes to plants, but the beauty loving Greeks went farther along the path of fancy. They invented human originals for their favorite flowers, and made beautiful legends to account for the trans­formation. The lovely narcissus, according to their lore, was once a handsome young god who became so lost in admiration of his own shadow that he cruelly slighted the affections of the fair Echo. As a punishment for this ‘crime he was changed into a narcissus, the flower of self love.

Shakespeare alludes to another romantic legend In his “ Winter Tale." The narcissus was said to have been the flower that the daughter of Ceres was gathering when she was carried off by Pluto of infernal region fame. The night goddesses also chose it for their ancient coronet, and it was a highly important factor in the cus­toms of Greek life. The Chinese, too, have a great fancy for this flower. They use it in many of their sacred ceremonies, and every family in the Mikado’s realm takes great pride in having a plant in full bloom at the New Year.

Love and Jealousy played leading parts In the story of the birth of the hyacinth, another Orien­tal favorite. There was a youth, Hyacinthus by name, who was much belovefl by Apollo and Zephyr. He preferred the warm, steady affection of the sun to the fitful love of the wind. This made the pasionate Zephyr wildly jealous and caused the plotting of a terrible revenge. While Apollo and Hyacinthus were playing quoits, which was a favorite game with the «ods, Zephyr saw his awaited opportunity. He made his rival the slayer of Hyacinthus by blowing the god’s quoit toward the head of the youth. But while the dying boy was held In the arms of Apollo he was transformed into the fair, fragrant hyacinth. The flower has always meant game or play because of this tale.

No, Cordelia, a criminal lawyer isn’t necessarily a criminal.dlans are predominantly brachycepha-

lic (short-headed), with a noticeable percentage (from 15 to 25 per cent) of the other type. The difference be­tween the two types Is fundamental and proves conclusively that the Pueblos differ widely from the ancient people of the cliffs.

Nevertheless tho similarity of their architecture, their industries, their cul­ture and their religion unmistakably Indicates that the Pueblos are the In­heritors of the Institutions of the van­ished race. Some of the existing com­

munities even possess traditions to the effect that their ancestors dwelt In the cliff homes.

Autos Crash onDeal Lake Bridge

Jerome Huber, eon of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Huber of 307 Second avenue, Asbury Park, driving his father’s speedy little Mercer, Saturday morn­ing, took a rear wheel off J. Otto Rhome’a Buick roadster at the Loch

A rbour end of the Park avenue bridge over Deal lake. The front springs of the Huber car were badly bent. No one was hurt altho Mrs. Rliome, who was with her husband suffered a slight nervous shock.

Mr. Rhome had driven from his home in Edgemont avenue and slow­ed up at the Loch Arbour end of the bridge to permit the passing of a lumber wagon, around the end of

w'hich he proposed to turn. At that moment the Huber car came bounc­ing across the bridge. The boy at the wheel did not see the Rhome machine until it was too late. He tried to swing over but caught the Buick in the rear and carried away the wheel.

“ Heads or T a ils ”To Tune of $2,660.

Deal Res ident C la im s He Was Duped Into S ign ing Note

In the simple game of tossing coins for “heads or tails,” Dr. Matthew S. Borden, a New York physician, who is a son of the late M. C. D. Borden who had a large estate at Oceanic and who was former owner of the large Borden cotton factories at Fall River, Mass., ran up a debt of $2,660, it is alleged in a suit which.has been begun for payment of a promissory note for that amount.

Dr. Borden has a handsome summer residence at Deal. The matter became public only with'the filing of Dr. Bor­den’s answer, which alleges that two casual acquaintances induced him to toss coins for money after they had given him something to drink which so influenced him that he did not know what he was doing.

He was told he had lost $2,660 and induced to sign a paper, which he al­leges he did not know was a promis­sory note,* and he asserts that the whole affair was a conspiracy.

The note fell into the hands of one John M. Richmond, who has brought the suit. Dr. Borden contends that, as it was for a gambling debt, the note has no value.
