She Drew Some of the Characters in
Her Last Stories Too Near to Life.
In both Miss Harraden's previous Cali
fornia stories-the Remittance Man" and
"Hilda STAFFORD" the characters were so
faithfully portrayed from actual life. that
the persons concerned instantly recognized
themselves, and were as easily recognized
by others,
In the former short story the scene was
laid at a place called Witch Creek, an
English colony about fifty miles back from
San Diego and Of which the hero. If
such he may be called, was a certain
young rancher, John Lane by name, who
wrathfully declared that of whatever viii
lainies Miss Harraden might have sup
posed him guilty, she had published the
worst when she prompted the Remit
lance Man. in spite. to shoot neighbor' 3
dog. Indeed, so indignant was he, that
for time he seriously contemplated
bringing an action for libel against the
famous author of "shps."
With Hilda STAFFORD the scene was
laid in the immediate neighborhood of The
friends ranch where Miss Harradan
spends her winters-a desolate arid spot
in the midst of a really beautiful country.
was perhaps the reason why the local
scenery and general life on a California
ranch We're painted in such gloomy col

Among the characters in this story the
old ranch woman who was portrayed as
spying out her workmen through a tele-
scope was at once recognized-a distinc-
ton which was not appreciated for the
lady in question threatened to take per-
sonal vengeance with her broom upon the
author, if the latter ever placed her foot
on the ranch again.

though but six inches in length it can be
seen for two blocks. The machine will
not register so long as this sign hangs
out. So that if a driver attempts 10 cheat

RUDYARD KIPLING'S HOME.
A QUAINT, OLD FASHIONED HOUSE
SURROUNDED By A HIGH

Nearby-What Mr.. KipIing Sees
From His window.
London, Jan. 19.-Rudyard Kiphng has
apparently settled down in the little Sus-
. sex village of rockingham, some four
miles 20 the eastward of Brighton. The
place is doubtless dear to him for old as
sociations' sake. 1t was here that he
spent his holidays during the period of his
career at Westward Ho. School All the
old villagers remember him; when. as the
nephew of BuTne-Jones, he was known
throughout the parish as "the little In
dIan." The Kipling house is an oId-fash-
toned place, surrounded by high brick
wall and looking out on the tiny village
green. 1t is called the Elms.
rockingham is a delightful survival from
the last century-a watering place unmar-
red by railway facilities, and only con-
nected with the outside world by a coah
which runs to Brighton. A greater con
trast could scarcely be imagined than that
which exists between the great, florid city
last mentioned, and its out of the way, pic
turesque little neghbor A very ancient
village is this chosen home of the laureate
of Imperialism. The Doomsday Book men
tons it, In the reign of Richard II the
French effected a landing here, and at
tempted to march across the downs, cap
ture Lewes, and avenge the Black Prince 5
victory at Crecy. They were opposed by
a mere handful of yoemen; but lost heart
and returned 10 their ships. The secret of
this mysterious retreat will soon be made
apparent TO anyone who tries to cross the
downs to Lewes. The crossing of those
wild chalk hills, and desolate valleys might
well daunt a foreigner. But if nature has
given you a stout heart vigorous lungs
and the ability TO climb ridge after ridge
uncomplaningly, the very best way to en-
ter rockingham is by those sef-same
downs from Lewes. The village lies at
the extremity of long 'combe''-a narrow
valley stretching far inland.
Where William Black Was Buried.
Up this combe, from the very edge Of the
great chalk cliffs winds the single street,
to where the gray old English church
stands sentinel over the green. In the lit
tie churchyard, only a few weeks ago,
William Black, the novelist, was laid to
rest, and the flowers are still banked up
on his grave. In the middle of the green
lies the horse pond; and all around are
houses, each of which possesses an inter
esting history of its own. There is the
vicarage, for instance, looking across the
green to Mr. Kip.ings window. Under its
high roof many famous men received their
early education, among the number being
Bulwer Lytton, the great Duke of We'll
hngton and Cardinal Manning. For the

warm friendship has sprung up between
the regiments, it may extend still farther

true that we may never meet in this life

read in the Earl of Lyttons life of his
father, how the great novelist became
cock of the school" by thrashing big
ger boy named Moreton. This was under
DR.. T. r. Hooker in 1917. Long before
then Wellington had frisked about the
green, and learned how to construe in the
vicarage. To the left of the old school,
with its back to great chalk hill, is the
house which the late Sir Edward Burne-
Jones built for himself; and wherein he
