MRS. vANpERB,Lrs DOUBLE.
She Has Boon Having Great Deal of
| Enn

She Has Been Having . Great Deal of
Fun.
Mrs. William X. Vanderbilt. Jr., has
double In Newport who, on account
Of her resemblance to the mistress OF
Belvoir. has been receiving attention
that she thoroughly enjoyed for long
time without knowing the reason for
1t. says correspondent OF the Denver
Post She could attribute 1t only to
sudden and unaccountable streak OF
politeness on the part Of the storekeep-
ers OF Newport. The young lady Is
Miss Bertha Eddy, a pretty little bru-
nette of Newport, an almost exact
counterpart OF Mrs. Vanderbilt In form
and feature. 1t was shortly after the
marriage Of Miss Virginia Fair to Will
liam X. Vanderbilt, Jr, and her arrival
in this city that Miss Eddy noticed a
marked change In the attitude OF the
storekeepers of Newport toward her
when she had occasion to visit their
establishments. The treatment of her
was so obsequious that Miss Eddy
could not account for 1t, and it was in
native Newporter is In the habit of
receiving that she could not fail to
notice it. After one or two experiences
of this kind Miss Eddy began to won
der and was at loss how to account
for 1t. The mystery was explained
one afternoon on visit to a florists
establishment, when she was ad-
dressed as Mrs. Vanderbilt. The sit
uatien dawned upon the pretty little
brunette like fash, and In a spirit
Of fun she concluded not to enlighten
the florist as to his mistake. The nov
city. too, of the courteous treatment
she had received was rather too pleas
ant to dispel. Miss Eddy's simple
purchases did not seem to attract the
attention of the storekeepers from the
fact, perhaps, that Mrs. Vanderbilt has
already acquired the reputation Of be-
ing thrifty housewife. For nearly
three months this had been kept up
and now that Mrs Vanderbilt has be-
come familiar figure here and Is
known to every one in Newport, Miss
Eddy finds that on visiting a store she
is now treated with less distinguished
courtesy. The situation Is all the
more humorous to the young lady, as
she never by single act attempted tc
carry out the deception, the storekeep-
ers having deluded themselves

The secretary bird OF South Africa Is
useful in destroying the serpent race,
on which creatures it almost exclu-
sively feeds. 1t derives It's name from
the curious feathery plumes which pro-
ject from each side of it's head, and
have a fanciful resemblance to pens
carried behind the ear by human sec
retaries. Undaunted by the deadly
teeth of the cobra, the secretary bird
comes boldly to the attack, and in spite
OF all the efforts of the Infatuated and
desperate reptile, Is sure to come off
victorious. In It's combats with the
serpent the wing is the most important
weapon. and answers equally all the
purposes of shield and a club. AS
the serpent rises to strike, the secre-
tary presents the front Of its wing as
buckler and almost Immediately dashes
the snake to the ground by a blow
from the same member. 1t also kicks
with considerable force, and almost in
variably concludes the combat by a
violent blow on the head from its
beak. which lays the skull OF the enemy
completely open.

:, :. ..,d that Frederick the Great

II IL said that Frederick the Great
was never conquered but once, and
that was by the sparrows. Going into
his cherry orchard one day, he found
many sparrows there and ordered them
ali killed or driven out Of the orchard.
Ths result was that the next summer
his cherry trees were covered with
worms and he had no cherries. He Of
dered the sparrows to be sgain ad-
n,tted to his orchard, and so the spar
rows did what the armies OF Europe
could not do--conquered Frederick the
Great.

law and the evidence, unanimously
found for the plaintiff. Justice Haw.
