Queen Marguerite
Wanted Humbert
to Smoke

Queen Margherita never could approve
a man who didn't smoke. Many was the
consoling pipe she gave to her late l1us-
band, the murdered King Humbert. She
said once to the prince of Wales: st can
overlook many faults in a man and make
many allowances for his shortcomings.
One fault however, I cannot overlook.
and that is his not smoking. When my
husband the king is annoyed I give him
MS pipe; when he is good tempered give
him a cigarette; when I want him to do
something very particular for me I give
him cigar With a pipe can console
him; with a cigarette can delight him;
but with cigar / can lead him anyhow
and anywhere y
The German emperor confessed recent
~ that of all his habits smoking had the
greatest hold over him. When I am not

. Some time ago-gossip does not say
how soon, and the family has not an
nounced the date-Harriet Ives Gammell,
the richest heiress at Newport, will be
married to Thomas Shaw Safe a wealthy
young Englsh1nan.
The wonder is not much that Miss
Gamne]l is to marry Mr. Safe, but that
she IS to marry at all. There is ro-
nance back in her life-a romance that
ended tragically some nine years ago.
Then she was engaged to the man who
had been her sweetheart in chlldhooa-

playmate and companion since each of

to have grown up for each other This
man was Herbert Powell.

women for his wealth and his manliness.
But ID her there was no other man; to

they were engaged to be married. The
young man had made all his arrange
! ments, and Miss Gammell had prepared
her trousseau. Both were suprenely
happy in the near approach of the we'd
ding. The girl showed her trousseau to
her friends and closely studied the tit of
the dress she was to be married in. F.
Mr.. Powell thought to end his backed
orhood with hunt, and started out with
a congenial party a fortnight before the
date set for the wedding. = He returned
a few days later to Newport, but that
evening, when he was to have called on
his fiancee, he sent word that he could
not come-that he was i'll. The next day
it was discovered that he had pneumonia,
contracted on his hunting trip. Miss

wedding he died.

sorrow in her voice and in her face.

abroad. She tried to divert Harriet

Suitors came, of course; but the sad
lsweet-faced girl in black would heed
none of them. Some came with wealth;
others with honored names; others with
manly beauty and manly charms All
were rejected.
After six years of mourning Miss Gam

Arcad!an Portion of Illinois Without

Calhoun county, situated on a pen
insula which, for fifty miles divides
the waters of the Mississippi from
those of the Illinois, is proud Of many
distinctions that make it the most
unique county in all the state of ILL
nois. Calhoun county has no debt, no
paupers, no crimes, no prisoners, no
consumption. There are no theaters,
no telegraphs, no WaterWorks, no
street cars, no pavements, no factor
les and no railroads. No automobile
has ever penetrated to its Businesses,
and no golfer has ever made his little
ball spin over it's green sod. There
Is not photographer within the linn
its of the county. Foreigners are
barred out as if by stone wall. There
is not Chinaman or an Italian on the
census list. The shiny collar and the
hand organ are unknown. Descend
ants of the first Il. English and Scotch
people that came to America settled
neers who entered rough and pictur-
esque country to build homes and to
till the soil. 1t is six miles from riv
er to river, and from the high bridge
dividing the two streams there is a
wonderful view of hills that are all
awry. Here are primeval forests and
mountains that are piled one upon
another. The topography of the coun-
ty became its safeguard, for only the
Industrious could cultivate virgin land
that was rock strewn and overgrown
with timber. The kingdom of Calhoun
is the name given to the county, and
its residents do not resent the impli-
cation in it's title. Petty crime is al
most unknown. Now and then the
tramps or gypsies passing through the
county will steal a pumpkin or fat
chicken, and if the transgressor is
caught the owner of the stolen proper
ty is quite able to deal with him with
out the expense of trial. A mild re-
proof, or, in severe cases, a few well
directed kicks, prove salutary penal
ties. At the last term of the circuit
court there were only three cases on
the docket, and all of these were civil
suits. In twelve years the states at
torney has had but one crime of i'm

recovered. This was the trial of a 10

team in an informal statement expressed
the opinion that negotiations looking to-
ward an international meet between
Yalc-Harvard and Oxford Cambridge
teams this year have practically failed
and that there will probably be no con
test i'll America. Captain johnson said
that Harvard had written to Yale prac-
tical!y demanding that the games should
take place ON college grounds, presum-
ably Harvard grounds. The position of
the BritiShers ms understood at Yale
called for contest on neutral grounds.
