THE KISS WENT AsTRAY.
Miss Erin Thought that Clerk Shoreman
Was Her Aunt, Too.
New York sun.

0eW 1OrK sun
A young, red-cheeked Irish girl landed at
the barge office, the other day, and was sent
to the information bureau to await the ar
rival of her aunt, a resident of this city.
just before sailing from Ireland the niece
had sent 10 the aunt piece of tho stuff
from which her dress had been made. The
aunt was to recognize her relative by
matching the piece with the dress.
The aunt turned up with the piece and.
after hearing her name called out by Clerk
Shoreman, went TO welcome the young i'm
migrant. The aunt stopped before the girl,
carefully compared the dress with the
piece. found that they matched perfectly,
and announced that she was satisfied that
the girl was her niece. The girl Immediate
ly hugged and kissed the aunt.
Clerk Shoreman. who had looked at the
queer Identification with much interest,
asked the aunt to let him compare the piece
with the dress. too. He did so. nodded his
head approvingly. and was somew hat
astonished to find two soft arms around his
neck and pair of rosy Irish lips glued to
his own. Mr.. Shoreman's fellow-c clerks
laughed immoderately, and the girl blushed,
divining that she had made a mistake. She
said that she thought Mr.. Shoreman was q
relative, too. because he had compared the
piece with the dress.

ANOTHER PocAHONTAs.
This One Died from an Arrow Intended TO
the Same Captain John Smith.

the Same Captain John Smith.
1t is generally known that in 1914 Captain
John Smith. of Pocahontas fame, made a
trip to what is now Gardiner, Me-. but
there was an incident that occurred during
that visit that is known by very few people.
The Cabassas were presided over by a chief
having headquarters at what is now Gardi-
ner. known as Cabassa who had a daughter
named Schools, famed among her tribe tor
her beauty and grace. She was, unfortu-
nately, smitten at once with the gallant cap
tain, who was, by the way, the first white
man to visit these parts. and who was re-
ceived with great cOrdiality. Smith had
with him lieutenant named Hunt, who
was of rather a Quarrelsome disposition
and prone to mutiny. When the time came
for the party of whites to depart, Hunts
mutinous spirit showed itself, and with q
small party of followers he left Smith. GO
ing in an opposite direction. His party
took with them, as captives, several of the
tribe of Cabsssas
The chief considering the whites one
party by a great mistake, followed Captain
Smiths loyal band. which camped that
night about four miles from the present To-
cation of Gardiner, In an easterly direction.
Schools, thinking to warn the Captain,
hurried on before the party of enraged In
dians, but arrived too late, for as she ar
rived at the camp the first volley of arrows
was delivered.
Thinking to save Smith, she fed to him,
threw her arms about bis neck. and in that
position received an arrow in the breast
that caused instant death. The chief was
palsied at the accident. and ordered hos
tilities to be ceased. This allowed Smith an
opportunity to explain that itwas the other
party that had perpetrated the kidnapping.
After sorrowfui return and the burial of
Schools near the Randolph Church, the
party of red men went III search of Hunt.
He was overtaken near Norridgewock and
his band exterminated to a man. Captain

heart was meant for him. The grave of
Schools is unmarked; in fact. its exact To-
cation is unknown.

The late Clement A. Livingston, for many

of the Lancaster court. Judge Livingston
will come before the people for third

Thaddeus Stevens. When he decided that
he would rather be lawyer than any

Stevens whether he had room for a

young Livingston received the following 2

WRITERS AID ARTISTS.

They Differ In Taste to the Surroundings
Most Inducive to Work.
Critic Lounger
1t is curious to note the differences of
taste among literary men and artists in the
matter of their surroundings hen at work
Going into the studies OF some writers. you
will not only find every convenience for
work in the way of mechanical appliances,
but you will find beautiful pictures, rare
books and costly bric-a-brac; soft rugs are
stretched upon the floor, and softer chairs
tempt the sybarite. Surrounded by all
these attractive things, the author viii sit
at his well-appointed desk and write.
Then you will call upon another, and find
that while he has library that is fitted up
with everything that heart can desire, his
writing-room Is a little barren den in the
attic, with nothing but a pine table and q
chair, a cheap ink-stand and a few pens in
penny holders. He cannot write. he will tell
you, where there are objects in the room to
and invite his SOUL he will repair to the
luxurious library, but for work he must re-
tire to the barren closet. The other could
not pull his thoughts together without his
fine surroundings. Luxury stirs the brains
of one. while simplicity stimulates those of
the other. 1t is the same way with paint
ers. One painter will have a studio filled
with beautiful draperies, costly rugs and
cabinets OF curiOs. Yon will stand en-
ehanted on the threshold of this fairy land.

picturesque costume to harmonic with his

painter you call upon will be painting in q

uresque. heard an artist say recently
that his ideal studio would be a
room as big as the Madison square
garden, without a thing in it. ex-
cept the absolute necessaries of his

would be for something between the two.
