MAGNANIMOUs WILLIAM.
He Did Not Take Revenge for an In

He Did Not Take Revenge for an In
Louis XII was of the opinion that it
was unworthy of the king of France to
revenge himself for the insults he suf-
fered as Prince Royal. The Emperor
William of Germany is of like opinion,
says the New York Times. Baron de
Krosik, who has just been appointed
a grand cross of the Red Eagle order,
was formerly colonel of the hussar Iegi-
ment in which the emperor as youth
first did military service. One night
at mess, toward the close of banquet
at which the young prince, then a mere
captain had invited his friend the Arch
duke Rudolph, the conversation turned
to the projected reforms in the cavalry
William declared himself partisan Of
these reforms and defended his opinion
with so much impetuosity that Col. Won
Krosik, very much excited, suddenly
interrupted him. 1T is an absurdity,"
said he in loud voice and contemptu-
GUS tone as he ridiculed the idea put
forth by the. prince. 1T is WE'LL" re-
piled the prince. To-day you are my
superior officer, and must bow be-
fore you, but our positions may
change" When his former subordin-
ate assembled the throne the Baron Won
Krosik fully expected to see his name
put on the retired list. But the emper-
or appointed him general, gave him
the important dictatorship of the school
of cavalry of Hanover and has ever
treated him with the greatest respect

type, which gives II not only purpose
and character. but a peculiar appro-
priateness. The architect, Mrs. Sara
Ward-Conley, has fdeaiized the struc-
ture by adding to its colonial style sug-
gestions of the Greek school Of archi-
lecture. The central part of the inter-
for is a large rotunda with a grand
staircase leading up right and left at
the rear, and the remainder Of the
building is divided into handsome
apartments for classified exhibits. Mrs.
Ward Conley, who is a daughter of the
eminent scholar, DR.. w. E. Ward, Of
Nashville, is well known herself in lit
erary and artistic circles for her work
in both art and architecture. Her de-
sign was accepted without a dissenting
voice as being reflective of southern
sentiment, and properly representative

culture and artistic taste combined
with tact and common sense, and pos

A large number of committees have
been appointed, and these are all hard
at work. The names Of many we'll
known women appear on the roll OF
executive officers. The chairman of the
committee on buildings is niece and
adopted daughter of James K. Polk,
Mrs. George w. Fall, who comes of old
revolutionary stock. She is a society
leader in Nashville, where she has re-
sided in the old historic Polk house
since childhood Mrs. A. E. Snyder,
of the library committee, is the author
of The Civil War from a Southern
Standpoint" and other books. Miss
Clara Conway, chairman of woman's
congresses, ten years ago made an adj
dress urging the opening of the Van
derbilt university to women, which has
borne good fruit. DR.. Clara Plympton.
chairman of the committee on profess
sional work of women, is graduate OF
the New York Medical College and
Hospital for Women. She was the only
woman in her class, and the first one
to receive diploma from the New
York Ophthalmic hospital, and at the
time passed a perfect examination in
surgery, but preferred to devote herself
to obstetrical and general practice. DR..
Plympton was pioneer woman physi-
clan to Nashville in 1879. Mrs. Eleanor
c. Batterman is looking after the in
ventions, and Mrs. Pitcher, who is
chairman Of the space and classical
ton committee, has been called the
Ward McAllister of Nashville society.

POstOmse Receipts.

The postofiice department reports a
falling of of $1,5OO,OOO in the post
Office receipts for the quarter ending
Sept. 80, as compared with the preced-
ing quarter. This decrease in revenue
is an indication of bad times, for the
postal revenue increases more rapidly
than population in prosperous years
and there should have been an increase
of nearly Loco, 900 under normal con.
ditions.

LEADS A STRANGE LIFE

A Wonan Has Saved Money and ssat
Her Son to France.
Fisherwomen are plentiful enough
in many Of the European countries, but
in the western hemisphere they are
certainly very scarce, says the San
Francisco Call. There are said to be
several of them at the fishing village
near Moro Rock, but even they only
do a certain part Of the work. On the
bay shore near Brooks Island Is per-
haps the only real fisherwoman in
the state, for she does all the work
from catching the fish to selling them
to the people who eat them. Nine. Ger
ken is the name of the woman and she
leads almost hermit's life. In real
ity it is a hermit's life except when
she goes on her semi-weekly trip to
dispose Of her stock. Her home and
place of business is not very invit-
ing place, but it is certainly more SO
than the home of the men engaged In
the same business who live in the vi
cinity. It is many years since Nine.
Gerken took up the fishing business.
and she is well pleased with her sue
cess. She was born in France, and,
after being married, came to this coun-
try with her husband to better their
condition. But 1t was not long be-
fore she was a widow with an infant
son to support. She worked at many
things in San Francisco, but none Of
them pointed the road to even c0mpar-
alive independence. BY chance, when
her son was 10 years old she met the
wife of a fisherman, who told her
many things and pointed the way to
q new business. But great as Mime.
Gerken's success has been there are
few women who would like to follow
her example. She built her own home
on the bay shore of land for which
she pays 81 a month rental and went
into the work the same as if she were
a man. 1t did not take her long to
learn to handle boat and manage the
nets, and, of course, her son was some
help to her. Nine Gerken was GER
tainly not afraid of water, for she
would go out in the worst kind Of
weather and put her boat through the
waves with the greatest ease. For
some reason she always made good
hauls. AS well as fishing in the deep
water Of the bay Nine. Gerken fished
in the pools along shore for shrimps
and Holsters and also dug clans. All
the fish she caught she put into tanks
that they would keep alive until she
took them to market. Twice a week
she rented a horse and wagon from a
Chinaman and went to the different
ranches on San Pablo Point and dis
posed Of her stock at good prices. 1t
is over ten years since Nine. Gerken
went into the fishing business, and as
a result she has sent her son to France,
where he is in the army.

Dronillard, vice president for Middle
Tennessee; Mrs. Mark S. COckrill, whose
husband is a well-known Tennesseean:
Mrs. John Ruhny, Mrs. Hunter Orr and
Mrs. Robert L. Norris, each chairman
of an important committee.
The library committee is bringing
together one of the most complete col
lections of books written by women.
Women's inventions are being ener-
getically looked after and the arri-
walls on the list of patents and inven-
items are coming in surprisingly. The
patent room will be decided novelty
to visitors who have not kept pace with
the rapid growth and spread Of this
branch of woman's development, while
it will clear away many existing mis-
conceptions as to the originality and
inventiveness of women. The ex-
hibits will range from a set Of folding
travelling cases, trunks and valises
and a typewriting machine with such
appliances that writing upon it is said
to be as easy for the blind as to those
blessed with sight, to perfect bread
raiser recommended to act as we'll in
freezing as in warm weather.
In the line of exhibits assured for
the ceramic room and the display in
the room devoted 10 decorative art the
list is becoming rapidly full and meri-
torious. A large number of women
artists will be represented, among them
some that have never before this
sent their work to the South. Mrs.
Alice Barber Stephens, Philadelphia S
well-known illustrator, will send sew
eral of her originals; the Cincinnati
Ceramic Club will exhibit as body,
the Rookwood Pottery will make dis
play, and the best wood caryers of
America will be represented by indi-
vidual pieces.
One of the most recent suggestions
comes from the women of Maury
County, who will fit up colonial sit
ting room and fill 1t with furniture be-
longing to the early period Of Tennes-
see history. The west corner room on
the second floor of the Woman's Build
ing has already been allotted to the
women of Sumner County to be fitted
by them as a bedroom of the colonial
period.
The Wilson County women are con-
templating providing an electric foun-
tain for some part of the WomsA's
Building and will beautify it with
choice plants. In addition to this spe-
cial feature they desire to make a good
display of Wilson County resources.
The Smith County women want 20
furnish a case of antiquities of his
toric interest. Besides this they will
have a display of needle work, lace
work, embroideries. and drawn work,
together with general display of other
work in which the women of this coun-
ty excel.
The women of McMinn County are
mainly interested in the beautiful lotos
pool which they will furnish. In adj
dition to this. however, they wish to
send an exhibit CT china painting and
needle work. a collection of minerals
and some designs in wood carving.
The Marion County women are
pleased with the suggestion that they
furnish the chairs and tables for the
room Of the Woman's Build
Ing. and have asked for estimates Of
the cost Of this furniture.
