Dear Cousin BeSS:-The following is a
brief sketch of one day in the life of my
dear mother send IL for the little
folks if YOU think it would interest them
1t Was sent in "a letter to my daughter,
Ethel Nav Sticknev, who has sent a few
letters to the JOURNAL
Grandma's Story, to Ethel: When ]
vas little girl my mother sent Two of
my sisters and myself into the woods in
the mcnrh of MAY 10 get some cedar
for broom, and some roots and
bark to make beer. Nv oldest sister said
she would not go home until she got
some gum, and when the gum was found
we were AL lost. II WAS in the morni z
when w started from tome. we trav-
eled all day n'the woods and expected
every minute the bears would come and
eat Us up. | thought ii stepped easy
they wouldn't hear me 1t was hard
day's work for u | can tell you
We got out Of the woods just as the
neghbors were lighting up their houses
for evening We were only one mile
from home and Oh, how short that mile
seemed TO US Our folks had
riised the neighbors and blowed horns
and tried their best to find US. I shall
always remember what my mother said.
Praise God, my children are alive"
with the tears streaming down her
cheeks. And God watched over US and
heard and n<wered her prayer.
Many thanks to the dear grandma who
has so kindly contributed "a story for the
entertainment of our little people That
she may live long and always be happy
know will be the wish of every jour
NAL reader. Yours sincerely,
COUSIN BEES.

The Stanford Unive rsity.
San Francikco Bulletin.


Over $50 men are busiiy employed at
present about the Stanford, Jr.. university
buildings at Palo Alto. A report was pub
lished lately that all work was to be
stopped by order of Senator Stanford, but
Ariel Lathrop says there is no truth in this
report, work being pushed as rapidly as
possible. Every effort is now being made
to get the fine four-story dormitory under
roof before the rains begin. The founda-
tons of the second dormitory building
have been laid, but work on the upper
walls will have to wait at present. The
SIX school buildings grouped around the
main quadrangle are all done, except in
terror finishing, and this will rest
until Senator Stanford's return.
The fittings of the various
rooms will depend very largely on the in
struction to which they are to be devoted.
The usual and necessary furnishings for
example, for q chemistry or mathematics
classroom are different from those which q
professor of literature or philosophy would
desire. This distinctness of equipment is
likely to be much more pronounced in the
various branches OF technical instruction to
which the new Palso Alto institution will
be very largely devoted. On their present
trip abroad it is understood that senator
and Mrs. Stanford are giving much time to
visiting various universities. and in advis-
ing with distinguished scholars concerning
the carrying out of the project here. 1t is
generally expected that the university will
be regularly opened for instruction in Sep
tember of next year. although present plans
may not all have been fully completed by
that time.

Mckee Rankin's Unfaithfuiness.
New YORK Snecial


Mckee Rankin, the actor, who is in
Brooklyn just now with his. play, 1.-The
kanuck," at Holmes Star theater, received
a call on Wednesday night at the theater
from Deputy Sheriff Andrew Lyons, who
served summons on him in a suit which
Mrs. Rankin has brought for separation
and alimony. The trouble between Mr..
Rankin and his wife is an old story, and it
is now year or two since they lived to-
getAer. Up to three years ago they used
10 appear together on the etage, but Mrs.
Rankin thought her husband was paving
too much attention To one of the other
actresses and an arrangement resulted.
Mrs. Rankin lives at Riverdale, on the
Hudson. with her unmarried daughter, for
whom, as well as 10. herself, she asks sup
port in the suit she has brought. Rankin's
manager, Mr.. Barney. said tonight that
the actor was takiag the matter very light
ly, and intlmated that Mr.. Rankin's sue
cess with 1.-The kanuck" was Mrs. Rankin's
strongest inducement for bringing the
suit He thought the suit would never
come to trial. but would be settled out of
court by Mr.. Rankin agreeing to nay over
some of his earnings. Mrs. Rankin's
lawyer admits that this is what his client
wants. and she thinks her husband should
contribute to her support.
