PADEREWSKI WILL NOT BE

The Rumor Recently Circulated Founded
on y Divorce Case-He Is Moro In
tcrested In Agriculture Than He Il In
Marriage.

The latest rumor OF Ignace Paderew-
skis marriage had as little foundation
as the various reports of his engage
ment to the American women he met
on his visit to this country three years
ago. His relations with the Gorski
family have long been we'll known. His
invalid son lived with the Polish vio-
linist and his wife during the years
that followed the death Of his mother.
and he has been their intimate friend,
at times making his home with them
when in France.
When Nine. Gorski and her husband
we're divorced. there was no change in
the famous pianist's relations with the
family, and his son has lived with
Nine. Gorski recently, and her life has
been in large measure devoted to the
care of him. 1t is not believed by any
Of the pianist's friends in New York
that he has been married secretly or
in any other way to Nine. Corski, who

A guard of Arab soldiers appeared
before the consulate and, through an

to do so. Two Of the soldiers rushed
forward with small hatchets in their

The Emperor William has the In
stincts of the artist strong In him.
When he visited his embassy In the
Palazzo Caffarelli in Rome five years
ago he undertook to embellish the
large ballroom and gave full liberty
to Prof. Hermann Prell to adorn tho
stately hall according to his fancy
says the Sketch. Certainly the con-
fdence of the imperial art patron has
not been misplaced, as all Rome couid
bear witness when the decorations
were unveiled before the king and
queen of Italy few days ago.
Over a scagliola wainscoting with
escutcheons OF twenty-five German
states are stretched the canvas paint
ings in tempera which it has taken
the artist three years to complete, the
walls having proven too uneven and
otherwise unsuited for fresco. The
largest picture Is 46 feet by over IN
inches in height, the Others being
about 39h feet long. The theme is
taken from the Edda, the ancient
bible Of Scandinavia, and the painter
to simplify and adapt them to his sub
ject, has literally interested the saga
therefrom of the love Of the sun god
Freia for the earth-maiden Gerda.

A recent investigation in Germany
of the suitability of aluminium for
cooling utensils raises the question
whether any danger attends the use
of such vessels. While aluminium Is
but slightly affected by weak acids
when they are pure, it is rapidly at.
tackled in the presence of sodium
chloride by sulphur dioxide, acetic
acid, and even alum. But says Sci
ence, it remains mooted question
whether the amount dissolved would
do injury to the system. Experiments
indicate that aluminium salts have a
somewhat detrimental effect on diges-
ton; yet on the other hahu, alum wa
ter is often beneficial to health.

Mrs. Kate Hayes, 35 years old, OF No.

only some minor scratches to show for
her trip. But the whole neighborhood
knew what happened within a short

an open space Of six feet or there

long start. She was found lying on
the floor screaming at the top OF her
