Mary in 1775. Its aims were to encour-
age scholarship, and these aims it has
maintained until the present day. Phi
Beta Kappa it is called. A hundred
years ago it became merely an honor
airy organization, election to which de-
pended on scholarship. From it, how
ever, and patterned after it grew the
present fraternities. They, too, We're
literary societies pure and simple in
their early days.
There are scores of these fraternities,
ali designated by Greek letters which
form the initials of their notices and
representing the academic, medical and
scientific courses in various colleges.
Kappa Alpha, which dates back to
1925, was long regarded as the leading
fraternity. During recent years others
have forged to the front. Phi Kappa
Psi Is said now to be one Of the stron-
gest organizations. 1t claims a mem
,bfrship Of 10000, having at this time
forty chapters located in as many lead
ing colleges and universities and TWEEN
ty-fve alumni associations.
Psi Epsilon Is also one of the big
ones. as are also Delta Kappa Epsilon
and Alpha Delta Phi. Most Of these
have thirty or more chapters, and
among their alumni are many of the
brightest college men in public life.
The older Greek letter societies have
alumni all over the United States who
II %ob % ha jph
boys about to enter college. Before the
high school commencement time the
prospective freshman has met some
member of fraternity in the college
to which he is going and has been in
vited to spend the college commence
ment week with that fraternity.
All Of the important ones have club
houses, which are often the finest
buildings on the college campus, but
are always the center of a life that is
almost homellke. Into these more OF
less elaborate college homes the fresh
man Is ushered the spring prior to hi
entering college, and here he is royal!
entertained.
But all the time he is under closes
scrutiny. If he is satisfactory candi
date, he Is invited to visit at the chap
ter house in the fall when he comes OF
to enter college. Again he is under the
same careful scrutiny, and if he salts
hes the members Of the fraternity he il
asked to Join.
The chapter house receives strong
ties, who recognize that the fraternit,
members are not alone in receivin,
benefit from It.

populaee. He is supposed to come from
the far east, where men wear wells and
big whiskers.
The Yelled Prophets organization in
st. Louis, which embodies most of the
active men of affairs in the city, was
formed in the spring of 1878. 1t had
as its suggestion the southern mystic
societies of Mobile and New Orleans.
Its members are known only to other
members. 1t Is one OF the organizations
In st. Louis that work for the good of
the city without reward save that
which is common to the community at
large. Its wonderful nocturnal illumi-
mated pageants have attracted atten-
tion from all parts of the world.
The first Yelled Prophets pageant
was called the FESTIVAL of Ceres" 1t
had seventeen floats. Their titles were
Glacial Period of Winter. Chariot Of
the Sun, Primitive Animals, Fiends Of
Darkness, the Centaur, Flora, Proser-
pine and Pluto. Golden Globe, Deme.
ter, Triptolemus, Flowing, Fruits, Bac-
chua Industry. Wealth, the Yelled
Prophet, Silenus.
So successful was the first pageant
that each year they have grown larger
and more elaborate, each one repre-
senting some event in history, mythol-
ogy or fairy tale. Last year the
Louisiana purchase states were illus.
trated in the floats.
After the pageant comes the Yelled
Prophets ball, the great social event
Of the year. One of st. Louis most
beautiful women is chosen as the
queen of the ball.

SHOCKED HER SUBJECTS.
English Wife of Prince of Pless Toe

Princess Henry of Pless. the beauti'
full English wife of German poten-
tate. has succeeded in making herself
unpopular with her subjects. They
think she is too English.
This all came about because the
princess hunted and shot in the royal
park at Furstenstein, as many Of her
countrywomen do at home. This has
shocked the nobility of the neighbor
hood. They prefer that their over
lords consort maintain a court with
more decorum.

London banking house of Morgan &
Co., when the knight arrived in New

Sir Clinton's mission, as he admitted

meeting that is to witness the closing
Of the final negotiations in the great
Morgan ship combine that is to unite
five of the most prominent Of the trans

Mr.. Morgan's interest In Sir Clinton's
arrival took the form of hustling about
the pier to get his luggage together. 1t

great tinancier, but he went at 1t with
the same vim that would mark a great
financial deal.

LIFE SAVED BY BEAR,

Woman Lost In Woods Strangely
Aroused to consciousness.
Mrs. Mary Button, aged eighty-two
years. who was lost In the Black for
est for five weeks and found a few
days ago more dead than alive, says
dispatch from Cross Forks, Pa, to the
Philadelphia Ledger, is just regaining
consciousness, and the story that she
tells of her wanderings through the
mountainous country, where rattle.
snakes and bears are plentiful, is
enough to make ones blood run cold.
She says that she lived on berries
and tender shoots and drank water
from the mountain streams. She was
so weak at one time that she could not
walk to the stream, and while she was
dragging herself over the ground she
crawled into a nest Of rattlesnakes
and had desperate fight with them.
After this she became unconscious
and claims to have remained In that
state for about two weeks. She was
brought to life, she says, by a bear
licking her face, and when she moved
her hands the bear ran away. Shortly
afterward she was discovered by gin
seng diggers.
To Cross Atlantic In Three Days.
A Londoner named John Wills has
