The New York Graphic gives the follow
ing details concerning the proposed pneu-
matte tube for carrying letters and small
packages from Chicago to New York: The
idea at first seems impracticable, but on ex-
animation it turns out TO be feasible. Two
tubes are 10 be made of brass, which will
run side by side, although, it Is said, one
tube win be tried at first. A powerful en-
CINE with an exhaust wheel Is to be sta
toned at one and. II is said that II the
tube is properly made and planted no air
win escape, The right of way, it is believed,
can be secured for nothing, or at a nominal
expense, and the main cost will be the tube
and the engines and stations. A letter, a
sample OF grain, or package of any kind
which Is 10 be sent, Is inclosed In a leather
ball. A ball presents the least friction as n
rolling object. and the leather is to be stiff
and heavy. a continuous current Of air is
passing through the tube constantly.
With one pipe the plan is to reverse the
engine every hour-the first hour forcing air
into it at the Chicago end, and sending pack
ages to New York, the next hour exhausting
the air at Chicago and drawing the packages
as quickly back. The men who have it IN
charge do not say how long 1t will take to
send a package In this way, but claim to send
1t in less than a minute. Stations will be es-
tablished at the important cities on the route.
1t is expected to pay a large profit, and to do
the business Of the telegraph companies, ex-
press companies and the mail. They say the
scheme OF sending crude petroleum by a pipe
for long distances, as is now done, was
laughed at at first, and that this one Is more
practicable, il possible, and not nearly so
costly, as the pipes are TO be so small, and
can go around curves and over hills, as we'll
as on a level.

How absurdly the descriptions Of Miss

pected to SEQ, when she sang at Steinway

Gus as a bankers daughter who married a
coachman, they are at liberty to do so, Of

An Embarrassed Inventor.


Among the regular passengers on a certain
Boston railroad Is a somewhat celebrated
chemist, who has lately compounded a mix
ture for tho cure OF cholera The other
evening he was In conversation with the con-
ductor regarding his discovery, and being
very much interested In its wonderful me-
dicinal properties, he raised his voice so as to
attract the attention Of all the passengers in

that a paper skating rink has been laid at

instituted hsit to recover the estate, which
included soms ofthe most valuable prop
erty in New Orleans. On the trial Of one
Of those causes. Mnz Harper testified that
four weeks before his death Clark showed
her the will he had just made in favor of
Myra, permitting her to read it from be-
ginning to end, and acknowledging the
child's legitimacy.
Baron Boisfontaine testified that Clark
told him the contents of the will and ac-
knowledged the child. On this and other
similar evidence the lost OF destroyed viii
was received by the Supreme Court of
Louisiana as the last viii Of David Clark.
By the law Of Louisiana a testator can not
make devises to his adulterine bastard. 1t
was proved by two sisters Of Myra's
mother that Clark privately married her
in 1903, a Catholic priest officiating, she
having previously learned that Des
Oranges, her supposed husband, had a
prior wife living, and was therefore not
legally her husband.
Clrk's contemplated acknowledgement
ofthe marriage was said to have been
frustrated by suspicious of her fidelity,
and deserted by him she contracted a
third marriage. In another suit, another
United States Supreme Court decided
that the fact of the marriage and the
legitimacy was established
Mrs. Whitney survived her husband
and married Gen. Gaines and survived
him also. In 1856 she filed a suit in the
United States Supreme Court to recover
valuable real estate then in possession Of
the city Of New Orleans and a decision in
her favor was rendered in the December
term, 1867.
This substantially concluded one Of the
most celebrated cases ever tried. The
value Of the property claimed was estim-
ated in 1861 at ss5. 0Oo, 900, of which
Mrs. Gaines had up to 1874, obtained
possession of SO. 600. 900, and numerous
actions for eiectment were still in pro-

JOHN KELLY's paper. the New York
Star, has, after all, not passed into pos
session of Mclean of the Cincinnati
Enquirer. There was difficulty exper-
fenced in agreeing upon a price that was
mutually satisfactory, besides which a
proviso was saddled on to the purchase to
the effect that the Star must continue to
support Tammany hall. Mclean there
fore refused TO touch the concern. The
Star has now suspended its daily edition
altogether and will hereafter appear on
Sunday mornings only. The reasons al
legged by the management in explanation
of this change are the phenomenal con
dition of affairs now prevailing in news
paper circles, a condition which has Affect
ed more or less disastrously the entire
piess of the metropolis Beyond its
bright editorial columns the Star was
never a glittering success.

IT APPEARS from official records that
during the period embraced between 1872
and 1883 there have been experienced no
less than 1854 shocks of earthquake in the
United States and Canada, not including
Alaska Of these the Pacific slope had
ISL, the Atlantic coast LAT and the Mis-
sissippi valley &c. These shocks do not
include the lighter tremors which make no
impression on observers but are recorded
by the seismometer, an instrument spec
tally designed for the purpose. 1t will
probably be news for most people that a
perceptible shock of earthquake is exper-
fenced in some portion of the United
States or Canada about once in every

MYRA cLARK
some Points In the History Of the Won
derfuI Woman who Has Just Died.

|
Mrs. Myra Clark Gaines, who died in
New Orleans Friday night last, was one
of the remarkable women Of the United
States. She was born in New Orleans in
1905 Her father, Daniel Clark, born in
Sligo, Ireland. about 1866. emigrated TO
New Orleans. where he inherited his
uncle's property in 1899. He was United
States consul there before the acquisition
Of Louisiana, and represented the territory
in congress in lsO6-s. He died ia New
Orleans, Aug. 16. 1918, and his estate
was disposed of under the provisions Of a
will which gave the property TO his moth
er, Mary Clark. who had followed him to
America, and was living at Germantown,
Penn. His business partners, Ralf and
Clew, were the executors.
Clark was reported a bachelor, but was
known to have had a liaison with a young
French woman during the absence of her
reputed husband in Europe. Two daugh-
tens were born Of this connection. one in
Philadelphia in April, 1902, the other,
Myra, in New Orleans The latter was
taken to the house of Col. Davis, a friend
Of Clark's. nursed by a Mrs. Harper, and
in 1872 went with Davis family to reside
in Philadelphia, where she passed by the
name Of Myra Davis. In 1880 Davis,
being then in the legislature, sent home
for certain papers, and Myra in searching
for them discovered some letters which
partially revealed the circumstances Of
her birth.
In 1882 she married w. W. Whitney,
of New York. who. in following up the
discovery, received from Davis an old let
ter which gave IN account Of a viii made
by Daniel Clark in 1913, just before his
death, giving all his estate 70 Myra, and
acknowledging her as his legitimate
daughter. Whitney and his wife went to
Matanzas, Cuba, saw the writer Of the
letter, and after collecting ct her evidence,
