SUNSHINE OF THE TAlLORS
Spanish Wars Effect on Army and
Navy Tailoring In Washington.


Navy Tailoring In Washington.
If there is one trade more than an
other which has witnessed mushroom
growth since the Spanish war began it
is that of army and navy tailoring in
Washington. It seems as if every empty
building had become occupied of late
and a shingle bearing the legend of
Army and Navy Tailor hung out for
the observance Of the people. Of course
the large increase on the armed force
both on land and sea of the govern
ment has been boon to the plyers of
the tape measure and shears.
All the social swells who got into the
army and navy, as well as the grizzled
old stagers who did, had to have uni
forms, and uniforms like everything
else, wear out and require replacement.
And so it is that the army and navy
tailors have sprung up anew and pros
pered of late in Washington. Over so
new establishments have started up
since May 1, and all seem to be doing
as large a business as the old firms
which have been organized for many
years in this particular trade. An ordi-
nary tailor is not rated as competent to
do the work. He has to be special
brand, an 'army and navy - tailor, or
the military and navy men steer clear

Eel Ringing In Jerusalem.

The ringing of bells at the new
church at Jerusalem is an interesting
new departure in Christian worship in
Palestine. There are three bells, and
the right to use them is one of the minor
concessions of the sultan to his friend
the kaiser. For over 800 years the use
of bells has been forbidden to the Chris
tian churches in the Holy Land The
many sufferers from tangled nerves who
live within earshot of London church
bells will be inclined we fancy, to i'm

WOMAN WITH A HISTORY.
Iudiana's Daughter of the Revolution
Enters Her Ninety-seventh Year.


Enters Her Ninety-seventh Year.
Mary Gano Cobb, Indiana's daughter
Of the Revolution (the only one west OF
the Alleghanies), entered her ninety
seventh year the other day at the home
of her daughter, Mrs. McDaniels, at
New London, Ind Mrs. Cobb, although
nearing the century mark, is nearly as
supple and active as her gray haired
grandchildren, and expects to see 100.
She is of long lived family. Her IA
Their, captain of artillery in the Revo-
lutionary war, died at 96. Her grand
father, John Gano. was the famous
Fighting Chaplain" of the Revolu-
tionary struggle, and her first husband
was Louis II. Bryan, hero of the war
of 1912 and the Mexican war, Bryan
was the great grandfather of Colonel
William Jennings Bryan, Mrs Cobb
being the step great-grandmother of the
distinguished Nebraskan. She was the
elder Bryan's second wife. Many inter
esting facts have been brought to light
regarding the family. The Ganos are
fighters, patriotic and long lived. The
original ancestor, Francois Gerneaux,
the Huguenot refugee, escaped from
the isle of Guernsey in 1886, boxed in
a hogshead and placed aboard vessel
he had purchased. He joined the colony
at New Rochelle, n, Y, and lived to
be 1903 years old. He had more than 30
descendants to. distinguish themselves
in the Revolutionary war
The capture of Major Andre, the
British spy, was due to little incident
not mentioned in history. Nancy Gano,
aged Is, had a lover, David Williams,
in the Continental ranks with her broth
ers. Nancy and Williams met privately
in a wood, and while there she pointed
out to her lover squad of soldiers
moving toward the village. Williams
Joined the detachment and persuaded
them to go to Tarrytown, which they
did. During this trip Andre fell into
their hands. The Ganos were detailed
as guards over Andre until his execu'
ton. Nancy married Williams later,
and she lived to be 96. Of the GanC
family lived to be 1872; 1, 1903; 9, 100

WOMAN'S CLUB.
Ladies Spend an Afternoon Discussing the
French Renaissance.


One Of the most interesting meetings
ever held by the Kenosha Woman's
club was held Wednesday afternoon at
their rooms in the Simmons block.
The meeting was the fourth one in a
series for the study of French history,
the specific subject being the French
Renaissance. The paper was prepared
By Mrs. W. 81. McDoel, ofChicago, but
in her absence it was read by Miss Gill,
of Kemper Hall. Mrs. McDoel, in her
splendidly written paper, took up in a
charming manner the revival 0fledrn-
ing in France, the causes which had led
up to it and the great influence it had
welded on the artistic and literary
history of the world.
In tracing the history of the revival
of learning among the: French the paper
discussed two fields of French history
the history of art and that of literature.
In the former Leonardo De Vaici was
the moving spirit and in the latter
Montague was the chief factor. French
art and literature boasts no more
hOnOred names than those of De Varci
and Montague. Mrs. McDoel also took
up the question of the universally of
the French language, and showed that
it was fitted to become the universal
language. The paper called forth a
very interesting discussion, which was
led by Miss Bessie Robinson.
The next meeting of the club which
will be held on February 1st, promises
to be one of unusual interest, and at
that time instead of the usual paper,
Mrs. WilmOt, prominent club lady of
Chicago, will deliver lecture on Spain
and the Spaniards.
