TCoP7RIGET. 1921

The Diana Of the Saranac at Newport
Is a young married belle from Boston.
She is tall and straight, willowy yet
substantial, dark-haired and merry
eyed. She wears & Tam o'Shauter, a
shooting jacket with pockets, a short
skirt over buckled leggins and she has
E gun-not the borrowed gun of some
man, handled gingerly with shriel1s
and ordinations, but her own rifle;
and she AYERS that she can kill deer
with il, in proof whereof she cites the
fact that she has Just done SO. For
when the deer season was ''on"-and
that means August i, and that again
means reasonably early on the night OF
the 18th, naturally - she went out
floating" with her guide and jack
lantern and the same little rife with
which she had amazed US all by shoot
ing at a mark, and came in well toward
morning, sleepy but triumphant, with
a fne doe ia her boat. And there was
no rest for anyone that night. It was
the pockets that did it. a woman who
has pockets can do anything.
Women who don't have pockets con-
fine their acquaintance with Adiron-
dack deer to venison steak on the 18th
or 10th, and to floating trips at night
without q gun, just to SOC q deer once,
don't you know. One lady last week,
just before the season began, tried this
near Upper Saranac lake. I may call
her the Venus of the Saranac, since she
wore no pockets and her gown came
almost to the ground and was coniec-
ton of ecru with coffee lace, so that she
certainly wasn't q Diana.

In conversation subsequently, the

hat was sunburned straw, trimmed
with punches Of red and pink clover
and knots of ribbon.
There was one Of black and white
checked silk, with a bodice OF cherry

ribbon. The wearer did not sit upon
the driftwoOd logs.
There was one OF white silk with
little waved squares in black, plain of

entirely covered with yellow lace. with
q satin waistband and a wide white

Of the land which SO far have responded

The countess of Meath, who founded
the MiniSterinC Children's league and
is at its head, has spoken and given
money in aid Of the movement. Miss
Frances 2. Willard has responded to
the call with her usual fervor in good
cause.
The first move Of importance will be
the preparation of a memorial to the
governors of the southern states. An
other task IS the organization of a
series Of mass MEETINGS IN every large
city. The speakers at these assem-
blages are TO include men Of national
reputation as platform orators: Arch
bishop Ireland, DR.. John Hall. Richard
Watson Glider, Gtgr. Ducey, W. Bourke

else. When the prince appears he ap-

But patience is a Gould Characters

a Gould consideration. Unfortunately,
Mr.. George Gould is not DESTROYS Of
making a lengthy stay abroad, and ID
is an open secret that he and his wife
do not agree on this point. The ques-
ton, therefore. that is agitating the
GDanciers of New York has reference
to the return of the missed ones. VIII
George Gould come home alone? VIII
he and the family come home together?
VIII he como soon? Or viii they re-

not fail to have an important bearing
upon New York's rapid transit prob

American institutions which the cus-
tom Of iynching emDodies, is its effect
upon the husnanitarianism OF all peO-
pie. It is a mistake to suppose that
Consideration for the negro is at the
bottom of this movement. II is another
motive entirely that inspires it. First,
there is the regard FOR law. If the law
be violated. let the courts punish. IF
st be pleaded that delay thereby re
suits, let the courts be increased, es-
tablished for the trial OF these GRIM
in2ls. Secondly, the moral effect OF
such spectacle a. a lynching is de
tooralizing beyond expression. Take,
Tor instance, the case Of the negro
burned al the stake IL Texas. Such q
sight as that must destroy al aitruism
In human breast. i has been stated
that merely to contemplate certain
forms OF vice. su1lies a soul forever.
The same thing might he said Of a

human instincts
Yet some 81 our communities up

have no highway scoUrgiuE. The great
fallacy in the arguments Of Iynohing
