WORLDS RICHEST BACHELOR.
After a Life of seclusion He Make.
His Entry Into New
York Society.

New York society is to receive a
notable addition in the person of
James Henry Smith, hitherto a re-
cluse and lately become the richest
bachelor in the world through the in
heritance of some S50,O00,OOO from his
uncle, George Smith, the Chicago
banker, who died q recluse in London.
Mr.. Smith has rarely invited anyone
to his rooms, which are filled with the
rarest bric-a-brac and thousands of
well-covered books, and he has seldom
left them save for business. Society
has never seen Mr.. Smith.
True, he has been member of
many clubs-the Union, University,
Racquet, Wool, Seawanhaka- Corinth-
ian Yacht and the Down Town--but
the clubmen have seldom seen him.
Mr.. Smith, with S5O,0OO,0O0 at his
command, has begun to entertain.
Coaching parties are now his fad, in
stead of an afternoon in the club win
dow, with magazine for his solitary
companion.

KHAKI AS TENT MATERIAL.
A Test of It's Utility to be Made During
the Summer by United States
Navy.

There have been some interesting
tests of khaki for use as tent material
in the army and marine corps, and so
far the tests made by both services
have been satisfactory. The tests of
the khaki tent material by the war
department are still in progress. The
commandant of the marine corps has
secured the manufacture in New York
city of 100 tents made from the serv-
Ice 10 and IL ounce khaki material.
These tents are now completed and
will be inspected by Maj. Charles l..
McCawley, assistant quartermaster.
They will be shipped to Annapolis,
Nd, where they will be used at the
naval academy by the marine battal-
ion, which will be encamped there
during the summer.
These marines are now quartered on
the Santee, but the force, numbering
eight officers and 200 men. under
command of Capt. Louis ]. Magil, will
go into camp soon. This command
will be maint tanned as model camp
for the instruction Of officers and
men.

OHIO WOMAN BUILDS HOUSE,
Digs the Cellar, Lays the Foundation,
and Does All the Work
without Aid,

Findlay, O.. has woman carpen-
ter. Mrs. Amanda James, a we'll TODD
widow, residing on Washington ave-
nue., one of the principal residence
streets, and woman prominent in
women's club circles, has just fin
ished building q complete little sum-
mer house. Every spadeful of ex-
cavation, every stone of the founda-
ton, and every nail in the building
have been the work of Mrs. James
own hand.
Mrs. James said: ~ am an earnest
believer in the independence and self
maintenance of womanlsind. I re-
joice to think that to-day more girls
are earning their own living by the
work of their hands than ever be-
fore. Woman is no longer merely a
doll in the hand of man. She is mans
fellow citizen, and should be recog-
nized as such.
There was scarcity of carpenters.
I wanted my summer house built at
once. They told me I would have
to wait. But my house is almost
done, and began work just one week
ago."
The summer house is one-story
building about 15x2O. It is as neat
ly put up as any master carpenter
could do it. Mrs. James has used
patent siding" and every nail is
driven straight to the mark. Not a
hammer mark is to be found around
any nail head. Her aim was true.
The other morning she put the
sheeting on the roof and had the
house shingled by night. Mrs. James
is a fine looking woman of about so.
