PLUCKY WELLESLEY GIRLS.
They Are Working to Duplicate Mr.
HockcfeIIer's Offer.


BOSTON. April 15.-Wellesley girls have
again shown their pluck, tact and business
ability
They have undertaken TO raise 100000
by various means to save a gift Of SlOO,OOO
TO the college by John p. Rockefeller.
Last February Mr.. Rockefeller offered to
give Wellesley $4,000, with the usual
proyiso that another 100000 should be
raised by the college before commencement
in June. Wellesley wants money, being
tlOO. 600 in debt and lacking several neces-
sary building extensions. President Haz-
zard had not in prospect any other gift
so she appealed to the alumnae to give
Mr. Rockefeller a chance TO make good
his offer.
Members of the Boston Wellesley Asso-
citation al once sent to Wellesley graduates
everywhere suggestions for raising the
funds Miss Mabel Curtis President OF
the association. put the plea on personal
basis. and asked every alumna TO RAISE
$50. which would bring the needed sum.
Through this means $50 600 was raised by
Individual subscription Of Wellesley wom-
en-. How many people contributed could
not be guessed
one Jealous graduate Miss Lizzie Hast,
opened a wellesley shop for the sale nI
flowers ana candies, at 367 BOyistOn Street.
the fashionable shopping district OF Bos-
ton For the past five days she has done a
lively business in bonbons and bouquets.
Her stock was not contributed but she
veuturcd a personal capital Of $50 with
many forebudings Of failure. But the shop
became popular In an hour, and with me
patronage Of the Back Bay and the colony
Of students who frequent Boylston Street
the stock was wholly disposed Of every day.
Miss Hast will have a handsome sum TO
turn over to the college.
She has no idea of the profits. She kept
no accounts. The place bristled with cul-
ture but one could note a reckless mat
tention to the lower mathemattcs likewise

lying about anywhere

earnings next week. count the bills, and

hundred dollars. She was assisted ny MISS

FOUGHT FOR A GYPSY QUEEN


DANBURY. April 15.-In the City Hos
pital lies a man who belongs to band Of
gypsies which passed through here, and
who was seriously wounded in duel with
a farmers son over the queen Of the band.
The gypsies brought him to the hospital
All that is known Of the story was gath
cred from members Of the band. No COM
plant has been lodged against the man
who did the shooting. The gypsy was shot
in fair fight. and the same spirit Of chival-
ry which led HIM to give his rival warning
TO defend himself has caused the gypsy
folk to keep the name Of the farmers son
a secret.
The queens name is Adela. and she is
the only grown woman in the band. She
is twenty years old and handsome after the
dark flashing gypsy fashion. In the hospi-
tai the wounded man is known as Peter
Riley.

Situation is Improving.

Washington. May 29-Gen. Corbtn
says that Gen. MacArthur's dispatches
show that the situation in the Philip
pines is improving. The present policy
in the army. he said, is to disartn and
not kill the Filipino insurgents and that
object is being facilitated by the action
cs the Filipino captains in getting their
men together and surrendering in a
body. In such cases the men get re-
ceints for their arms and ammunition.
There is no longer any organised re-
sistance. he says, and the only trouble
comes from bands of guerrillas. which
swoop down on the unprotected natives.
steal all they can lay their hands on.
and run off with their booty before the
troops can reach them These maraud-
ers receive no mercy from the troops
and are shot down whenever caught
looting their terrorized countrymen.
Every effort is being made to disarm
these bands and to get control OF all the
arms and ammunition in the islands as
an essential to improved civil govern
ment. With their sunpply of ammuni-
1 tion cut of the bandits and guerrillas
would become practically harmless and
their capture could be easily effected
thru the help of the friendly natives,
| who no longer would have cause to fear
them. Consequently the voluntary sur
render of insurgent bodies with their
4 arms and ammunition Is very encour-
4 aging TO the administration officials.
