AT this season, when colleges and finishing SCHOOLS

sort in the city is worthy of note by way of con-
trast where girls are trained in really unique
manner to become most efficient housewives. This
is the Little May Cottage of the Sheltering Arms,
at One-hurdred and twenty -nnth-st and Amster-
dam-ave. The cottage was founded some years
ago IN memory of little May Carey, who died when

given by Mrs. John Carey jr., who was the daugh-
ter of William B. Astor, 1t was resolved to cstab-
lish a home of more permanent character than was
permitted in other parts of the institution, where
thorough in domestic training could be COM

become a household in itself. It's work is done on

live there and have complete management of its

RELATIVES WHO ARE NOT CARDS

'Of course it is not common not TO have car
rIage any more than it is to have a carriage but
IL is common TO talk as if you had a carriage or
about your carriage If you have one"
This speech was delivered by a young expounder
of social ethics and the thought strikes at the
root of the matter very cleverly. Any pretence
is vulgar and any cstsntation or, as the children
say. putting on airs is even worse. The condi-
tions of life however, have nothing TO do with II

the gentlewoman. In this country especially the
young people of a family often 60 with much
smarter set $50 caed) than their parents and rela
tives and IT, in consequence, they show any false
pride about II they betray exceedingly bad form.
"po you notice how the Robinson girls never
mention any of their family who not cards ~
remarked an astute woman of their acquaintance.
" Jim is card because he is very popular with
smart women. Their aunt, Mrs. s., is card
because in some way she has managed to get into
society. But their elder married sister they never
mention. brother who goes with a different
lot of people And for their father and mother,
plain, WORTHY souls. would hardly know that
when I first met them they were so pretty and
clever, but the trouble is that they not really
gentleTOmen."
People who are ashamed of their relatives or of
the social position of their parents do realize
that they themselves betray the coven foot; that

greatness, and actually comes to believe that they

But, even while laughing at his airs of grandeur
we cannot help having a kindly liking for a man

alive, an honored place in his grand establish
ment but after their death took their old portraits

All thoughtful souls, with power of love imbued
Need some sweet, tender voice to answer theirs;
We search and live in hope OF echoinS call
How oft may steal answer unawares!
Sweet counsel from the running brooklets song
Is sung many a sad and weary heart
The stars still shine. In silence do they speak
Such voiceless lessons that are keenest art.

The birds, the flowers, the sky with sunset hues
Are filled with answers that are yours and mine

FURIOUS BLIZZARD.
RAILROADS In MICHIGAN BLOCKED
MANY TRAINS SHOWED IN.


DETROIT, Mich, March ia special
TO the Free Press from Grand Rapids
saws:
Raging along the entire coast of Lake
Michigan, north of Grand Rapids, and
reaching out over the Saginaw valley is
one CT the most disastrous storms in
years. Railroad reports here show that
all lines are blocked, and that not a
train on the Grand Rapids & Indiana or
the Pere Marquette, northeast of here. is
able to move. Five Grand Rapids & IN
diana passenger trains are stalled be-
tween here and Mackinaw City. Two
Pere Marquette passenger trains are fast
in the snow, and are rapidly being snow
ed in completely, and there are freight
trains out on both lines which are bank
ed in with walls of snow and frozen
slush Railroad men say that, the storm
is one of the worst they have ever en-
count cred.
Tae strength Of the blizzard may be
understood when it is known that win.
dows of the coaches and the cabs of the
engines were, in some instances. broken
in.
The trainmen in reporting from the
north say that their situations are peril
oes, and they ask for immediate aid.
They say the snow is falling in clouds.
and that they are unable to assist them
selves.

FORGERIES OF 100000.
CHARGED AGAINST CASHIER JOHN.
SON, OF NILES NATIoNAL BANK.


NILES, Mich, March 13-The directors
of the suspended First National bank
today filed a declaration against Charles
A. Johnson, the missing cashier of the
bank, alleging that forgeries amounting
to $4,000 against leading citizens of this
county have been committed by him. 1t
was found today that there was a great
quantity of forged paper held by the in
stitution. Bank Examiner Selden filed
papers with the county clerk at ST. 10
seph, attaching all Of Johnsons prop
erty, but it will not cover the shortage
by many thousands. No trace of John
son was discovered today.
Of the forged paper found $4,000 was
against H. L. Wilkinson, of st. Joseph,
a member of the abstract firm of Dix
& Wilkinson, which did large business
with the bank. A petition will be sent
to the comptroller of the treasury asking
him to- appoint some local business man
receiver of the bank. So many local
manufactures and business firms are
embarrassed by the suspension that it is
vital to the town that the banks af-
fairs be settled up with all possible
speed. The report of the bank examiner
is being feverishly awaited by the
anxious depositers. The funds of both
the city and county are tied up by the
bank and all municipal business is prac.
tically at a standstin.

WASHINGTON, March 13-Deep in

flee hours had closed for the day before
the end came, the first official action
regarding the death will be deferred un-
til tomorrow when, following prece-
cents, President Mckinley will issue
his proclamation to the people notifying
them of Gen. Harrison's death and set

and characteristics. He also Will order
salutes to be fired atsthe various army

as the act of March 8, 189S specifically
fcrbids the draping of public buildings

fact that two orders issued by Presf-
dent Harrison himself probably brought

sue an order announcing the death OF
ex-President Hayes, closing the depart
