NEWPORT SHOCKED AGAIN.

society was shocked to-day when story
travelled along Bellevue avenue and il
and out Of the Casino, that Mrs. Kitty
Cheatham Thompson, formerly an actress
had written to Mrs. Pembroke Jones that
she. wouldn't sing at the dinner given al
! Friedheim for tho Duchess of Marlbor-
! ough. the Grand Duke Boris and other
prominent visitors, because she thought
it beneath her dignity as an artist to
appear among such people"
"Whew!' whtstled the assemblage at
the Casino. Aftsr all that MFR. Henry
Wattersan and others had said of New
port society, this blast from Ers. Cheat
ham Thompson, who sings negro songs
professionally In drawing rooms, certain
~ did clap the climax.
Then sonlc one came along and said
that the story in its travels had become
twisted and the version given was all
wrong; that it was true that Mrs. Cheat
ham Thompson had written to Mrs. Penn
broke Jones that she wouldn't sing, but
that her objection was not to the, guests,
but to tho perform rs who had been en-
gagged to appear with her.
That explanation cleared the atmos-
phers eonsiderabl and society heaved q
sigh OF relief.
The fact is that Mrs Cheatham Thomp-
sen was engaged to appear at Mrs. Penf-
broke Jones d4nner at. her own request,
she being particularly DESTROYS Of singing
gone OF har African melodies before the
Duchess OF Marlborough. She was told
that other psrferra ers would be on the
programme, but that she might appear
asst, to give her performance eclat. s
Mrs. Pembroke Jones dinner party was
one of the notable events OF the season,
the guests numbering seventy, and in
Guiding, besides tho Duchess Of Marlbor-
ough, the Grand Duke Boris, Count Cas-
sinI, the The Russian ambassador; Baron
schlippenbach,~ the Russian consul-gener-
al at Chicago, and other prominent for
eignsrs.
The hostess had just told the Grand
Dake kow eleverly Mrs. Cheat than Thomp
son rendered the peculiar songs OF the
souther "daEites," and he had expressed
his deSire to hear Der, when note was
handed Mars. Pembroke Jones, which read
as follows:
NY Dear Mrs. Pembroke JONES'
It is beneath my dignity as an artist to
appear here with such people.
KITTY CHHATHAM THOMPSON. h
It seems that Mrs. Cheatham Thompson
held that her social position would not
permit her appearance with the artists
engaged, and that while she does sing
the old plantation melodies Of the South,
she is far renewed from coon singer.
The lotter, was Ike an exploded bomb to!
tho hostess, and she made the best ex-
cuses sine could to her distinguished
guegts for the disappointm ent
It is interesting to note that the other
performers who did appear were Mr.
Heathe Gregory, basse, who will sing
at Mrs. Astor's next Monday night; Miss
Dollie Leach and Miss Murray, very
claver singers Of coon" songs, one Of
atty in England; Mr.: Sidney Grant, an
imita tor. and Mr. George Dee, a coon
singer.

A STUMBLING BLOCK.
Real Nerve of would-Be Teacher
Rewarded By. Mr.. southaIEs
DeDartment

The Department of Public Education at
the Library building. has a great many
difficulties to contend with. Not long ago
an aspirant for q teachers position in a
county accessible to this city In a two
hours ride, wrote to the department on
very confidential matter
This applicant said he wanted the po-
sitlon. but as the examination would be
stumbling block in his way, he would
be materially aided, If the Department Of
Eoucat1on would give him a tip on the
questions that were going to be asked, so
that he could bone up on them. and
be prepared TO pass star examination
at the appointed time. He just asked For
list OF queshons-thats all, and inti-
mated that his county superintendent had
suggested that It would be a good idea
to write here for the material he wanted.
In order to help a man possessing such
real nerve. the department here decided
to grant his modest request. So a copy
Of the examination questions were sent
to the applicant
He prepared himself thoroughly on the
questions sent and when he went before
the board and the examination ques-
tons were handed to him, he was dumb
founded to see that the questions that
had boon mailed to him from the depart
AA'SAA1 A1C1 y SSiS iA1 11o ieSkSSl SAA1lAdl "
those propounded by the board.
He failed to pass in single subject
The explanation was simple
The department sent him list of ques-
tons three year old, with the date re-
moved from the top of the page, SO that
they could not be distinguished from the
questions of this year.
The applicant had the consummate
nerve to write to the department and
because they sent him the wrong
questions, and so far as the department
knows, may be in total ignorance Of the
purpose of the officials here in sending
him the wrong questions.
