WOMEN TALKED ABOUT.
Miss Gertrude Elliott Who Has Cap
tured An English Duke.

Miss Gertrude Elliott, the beautiful
and talented sister of Maxine Elliott,
has added to her collection of scalps
the tonsorial headpiece of the Duke oil
Manchester. AT least so Mrs. Grundy
reported in London circles recently.
According to letters written to
friends in this city by a society bud,
now 'doing" the season abroad, the
duke is very pronounced in his man
ifestations of his latest passion and If
the maternal grasp is not soon laid
upon his collar another coronet will
decorate the brow of an American
beauty.
The Duke met Miss Elliott at the
play q month ago and since then his
visits to lakewood have been more and
more frequent. During the last fort
night he was guest at the country
place and his attentions to Miss Ellio tt
have aroused comment in aristocratio
circles.
Beauty strongly appeals to the Duke
of Manchester, whose mother was Con-
suelo Yznags of New York. 1t has
been announced that he was engaged
to marry Miss May Goelet, whose moth
er promptly denied the announcement.
The Duke really was anxious to mar
ry Cleo de Merode, and among other
jewels gave her q bracelet set with q
large Burmah ruby and diamoods
which he got on a credit from q Pari-
sian jeweler.
The Merode was quite willing to
marry him, but the British Embassy
informed his mamma of what was
going on, aud she FASTENED to Paris
and ended the escapade. hiladelphia

Laughs at Their Misfortunes
The Mexican Herald has the follow
ing:
Several American newspaper cor
respondents have showed up in Sonora
to report the Yaquis rebellion, and &C.
cording to the .Gusymas papers they
are having some bitter experiences.
They find reporting aud Indian up
rising in the mountains of Sonora q
very different proposition from what 1t
looked to be from their desks up in the
States.
None of them have yet gotten within
kodak-distance of the scene of con-
fict, and are not likely to. 1t is not
probable that any of them will want to
try 1t over after making the first at
tempt to reach the seat of war. AT
least no second attempts have SO far
been made.
The first paper to turn a special cor
respondent loose in Sonora was the
Chicogo Record. Not much have been
heard of this correspondents move

He was followed shortly by repre-
sentatives of several western papers,
including gentleman named Kelly,
who came for the Los Angeles Times.

PLANS OF
THE CARNIVAL
A Start Was Finally Made at
q Meeting of the Com
mittee Held Last
Night.
TO LAST A WEEK
LAST A WEI

l n
| Chairman of the Executive Committed
"A Committee of Five Was Selected tt
Arrange Programme.
1t seems to be q most difficuls matter
| to assemble together a body OF men
in Ell Paso, who have been asked to
lend their efforts in promoting an en-
terprise such as the midwinter
carnival.
At all the meetings thus far held,
only sprinkilng of the committees ap.
pointed have been in attendance, and
at last nights meeting held in the
Firemen's hall. Only very small
number of the executive committee
were in attendance.
1t was some time before the commit.
tee got down to work, and great deal
of time was lost in unnecessary discus
sion.
DR.. Albers was inclined to the belief
that before any moneys should be col
lected, the program should first be out
lined and then submitted to the pros
pective subscribers, as he thought 1t
would influence them to q great extent
in the amount of their subscriptions.
He stated that $4,000 had already been
pledged and If the gentlemen who
pledged the amounts knew what kind
of an entertainment they were going to
nave LQ0 rdlSlnR VI luuuS COuIu Dc uOT0
easily accomplished.
When the question arose as to the
length of time the carnival should con-
sumo, Judge Hunter thought that the
carnival should extend over q period
of three weeks.
The suggestion did not meet with
much favor as the rest of the commit
tee thought weeks time quite suffi
cient, and to hold the carnival during
the time of the fiesta across the river.
A committee of five was appointed to
arrange the programme, decide on the
dates and the length OF time to be de-
voted to the carnival.
The following gentlemen were asked
to serve on that committee.
F. E. Hunter, Feliz Martinez, A.
Courchesne, Frank Powers and DR.. A.
K. Alters.
The appointing of the secretary to at
tend to all the details of the carnival
work, was left in the hands of Chair
some suitab BILE and competent man for
the position.
On suggestion of Mr.. Martinez, it
was drought advisable to appoint a
committee of seven members to act as
a finance committee.
Some of the members thought that q
larger committee could do the work
more readily auO IL WAS nualIy decided
to have the chairman of the executive
appoint the seven mem bers
to act as finance committee, and that
the members of the executive commit
tee could be called upon at any time to
help in the work of raising the funds
necessary for the carnival.
Several of the committee seemed to
be of the opinion that the outlining
program should be'the first step taken,
but the majority Of those present con-
Cured in the belief that the raising of
the funds was the most essential part
of the work, and this should begin
without any further delay.
1t was definitely decided to hold tn
carnival and that the same should last
for a week.
1t was decided to meet again Friday
night at half past eight at the same
place to hear the final report of the
committee. The meeting then ad-

Went to Work.

The two hobos that have been living
on bread and water in the lookup since
Thursday, grew tired of fasting on such
diet and Sunday signified their willing
ness to 90 back to work on the street.
That evening they partook OF the
first square meal since Thursday morn
ing, and gobbled it down like hungry
wolves.
A pile of large stones was stacked up
on John street for them Monday and,
with balls and chains attached to their
legs and sledge hammers in their hands,
they at once went to work reducing them
to smaller size. They worked very well
and if they keep at it they will get good
meals until they serve their sentence OF
thirty days.
"Manayunk Slim" says he does not
like newspaper people and every time one
of our representatives Puts in his appear
ance he utters few oaths and gets an ex-
preston on his face as if he would like
TO ''eat him up. The other tramp takes
his position easier and does not have much
TO say.

COSMICAL THEORY.
Original Nebul@ Became Condensed
by Gravity Into Globe.

The cosmical theory, which may be
said to be the most generally accept
ed by scientists at the present time, is
substantially as follows: That the or
igfnal nebulae in vast space of time
became condensed by gravity and rad
iation into semi-gaseous and semi
liquid globe, and, cooling, caused a
solid crust to form upon the surface;
steam and other gases which had been
thrown off from the seething mass was
precipitated in the form of water con-
tanning immense quantities of solids in
solution, these solids falling to the bot
tom Of the liquid covering of the globe,
and thus in ages becoming a solid shell
of primmordial rock, internal fires, still
burning, heaved the weaker portion of
that shell into stupendous mountains
by the later actions of the waves and
glaciers. Following this, as an newt
able sequence, forms of vegetable life,
which could cling to rock and derive
their food from the air, grew upon the
barren land thus created, and higher
vegetable objects grew out of their
lower predecessors; after which came
higher vegetable life that fed, lived
and developed upon the life which pre-
coded it.

Beds.

In England the old four-poster bed
stead is still the pride of the nation,
SAYS the Sanitarian. but the iron or
brass bedstead is beating it out of the
field. The English beds are the largest
beds In the world. A popularity of
the German is its shortness; besides
that it consists frequently in part of a
large down pillow or upper mattress.
which spreads over the person and
usually answers the purpose of all the
other ordinary bedclothing combined.
In the tropics men sleep in hammocks
or upon mats or grass. The East In
dian unrolls his light, portable char
poy or mattress, which, in the early
morning. is again rolled together and
carried away by him. The Japanese
lie upon mating, with stiff, uncom-
Portable wooden neck rest. The Chi
nese use low bedsteads often elaborate
ly carved and supporting only mats or
coverlids. The ancient Greeks and
Romans had their beds supported on
frames, but not fiat, like ours. The
Egyptians had a couch of peculiar
shape, more like an old-fashioned easy
chair, with hollow back and seat.

Avoid Alum Baking Powders.

The doctors inform us that alum is a
poison, and that alum baking powders
should be avoided because they make the
food unwholesome. Prominent hygienists
who have given the matter most study,
regard these powders as an evil that
should be suppressed by state action. In
Minnesota and Wisconsin alum powders
are not permitted to be sold unless they
are branded to warn consumers OF their
character, while in the District of Colum-
bia the authorities have under the direc-
ton OF Congress, adopted regulations to
prohibit the use of alum in bread alto
gether.
Are not the people of oher states. as
well as those OF Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin, entitled to warning Of a danger
which is apparently menacing them at
close hand, and is not the whole country
entitled to absolute protection, as the
people of the District OF Columbia are
protected, by legislation which is entirely
prohibitive?
Until we can have protection in the
form of statute, how can our state boards
of health, state analysts or food commits
sions better serve the public than by
publishing in the newspapers from time
to time the names of the baking powders
which they find to be made from aluma
