HOW SHE MUST HAVE AwED HIM.
\ Countess and Her Remarkable An.
 nOuncement at the Convention.

There was q countess in town Frl- day. She dawred upon the clubwo- mems convention in Mendelssohn hall at 10:4G a. m., and gave them five min utes of keen delight. The couatess was all the more welcome because she was unexpected. She was a complete sur prise to the women Of the state feder- ation-One of those happy surprises with preternaturally blond hair and a complexion which can stand the test Of all kinds of light and of any kind of weather not too damp. Somebody had asked how a good style in writing could be obtained and, by a lucky chance, the countess was there to settle the point
 Nobody knew the countess before she mounted the platform, but that was an oversight soon remedied. The remarks made by the lady wers autobiographi- cal, but no less interesting on that ac- count Even when the countess says nothing at all she fascinat5s. She commenced by saying: Journalists are born, not made. I began my ca -reer as 9 journalist in London, and if had not been born with ,he gift Of style could not have been successful. Now l can buy handsome gowns, natty hats and leather boas with money earn cd by my pen I asked the advice Of Clement Scott.
 Countess" said Mir. Scots, ''it must be that you could write, you Spaak so beautifully"
 It was misfortune in the family which drove the countess to her pen. It is terrible the way misfortune has of seeking out cOunteSSSS, but it seems, like envy, to love a shining mark, At any rate, goaded by misfortune and encouraged by Mir. Scott, the countess wrote thousand words and he traded her two guineas for them.
 Fate continued to pursue the count ess with relentless hand. Editors be- gan to offer her ten shillings instead of two guineas, and then the worm turn ed It turned to South Africa, for a change, and the countess became a shining light in Johannesburg journal ism. Here, as she confidently in- formed the women, her success was again due to her style.
 She finished her romantic remarks with the stratling announcement that the crying evil Of journalism was the drinking habi; among women writers, ths Eobiest e them having gone down under the effects of whiskey and cham pagne The countess was the most re- freShing incident of the convention and quite took away ths breath O. the del egates.

SHE POSED FOR BOUGUEREAU.
Chicago Artists Are All Agog Over the
 Arrival of Beautiful Modsl.

Chicago art circles are all agog over the arrival of a Paris model-one who posed for Bouguereau. Her name is Julia Hale, and she is the impersona- tion of all the graces which the public has consistently ascribed to the pro fessional poser. Like Trilby, she poses for "the altogether" and it never occurs to ner that there is anything unconventional in it. She poses be- cause she likes to pose and is entirely above the question Of lucre.
 Miss Hale is a young Kentucky girl, between IS and p years of age. She belongs to one of the best and most ar istOcratic old Kentucky families. Every line of her delicate features speaks of blue blood and inherited refinement. Her story reads like a romance. Miss Hale has posed for all the great mod Nern French artists since she was a child of years old With Bouguer- eau she was a great favorite. He has immorialized her features in his most famous works and it is said that she is the original of the most beautiful fig ure in "The BatheTs,' BOurguereaus masterpiece Gow at the art institute At all events the painting reproduces the features of the beautiful model with the fidelity of a photograph.
 Miss Hale arrived in Chicago two weeks ago. She spent just tW-lve days in the city posing for a popular paint CT, who has a studio in the Fine Arts building. Then she disappeared sud- denly and has not been heard from since. She has promised. however, to return by the middle of November. Where she has gone 10 is a mystery. She has no near relatives, and has man aged to quarrel with morc remote ones. Such friends as she has arc in the cast. In the artists colony here her person ally, her comings and goinGs. arc the subject of lively conjecture. Miss Hale has elected to pose for one artist only, and try as they will the others have not been able to get sitting frn.n

him nor heard any complaints Of him.
He had appointed Hiriart deputy sher-
III, and revoked his commission when
he was appointed police officer. He
had appointed Hiriart at the request
of Judge Hatch.
Belle Williams, a notorious colored
woman, had been waiting in the mayors
inner Office to testify in the case against
Hiriart, 1t was stated. The mayor in
quired who had sent for her. and Com
missioner Wyman replied that the wo-
man had come to his house on Saturday
night, and had said she had charges to
prefer against Hiriart. and he had told
her to come before the board with her
story.
1--WE don't want this woman here"
hotly remarked the mayor. "She is the
worst character in the city,"
Commissioner Wyman demurred, re-
marking that the woman had certain
rights. no matter. what her color or her
reputation. The mayor insisted, how
ever, that he would not permit the wo-
man to testify under any circumstances,
and ordered Chief GLASS to escort her
from the room, which was done.
After. the reading OF five affidavits
vouching for his good character, Hiriart
took the stand himself and told Of the
various places where he had worked dur
ing his thirteen years residence in Call
|fornia. According to his statement, he
wife was the tempter: he married the
girl, who was working for Mr.. Gibson
at the time, and at the demand Of Mr..
Gibson. AS to this marriage. he claimed
Fhe had previously asked the girl to have
the ceremony performed, but she was
unwilling then. They lived at the Glib
son residence for time after theip mar
riage, but Consistent interference Of OUT
siders with his wife compelled them to
leave. During this time his wife was
troubled with female complaint, and the
medicine given her was given at the
direction Of q reputable physician, and
was not intended to produce an abortion,
as Mr.. Gibson had charged. The medi-
cine was taken from fIiriart's wife by
Mrs Gibson the day; after the marriage,
