emperor Menelek's proclamation of his deter

SIohS IN AbySsInla to foreigners is a sagacious
ana polite step, worthy of prince who prides
hlmseh on a Hneal descent from King Solomon
ana the Queen of Sheba. For by assuming this
attitude he eliminates one of the principal periIs
that menace second class powers and semi
clVllzed or wholly barbarous nations. Indeed
so hr1nly is the Negus convinced of the danger
constituted by these concessions to foreigners
that ne has made up his mind to annuI all those
already granted, and is said to have instructed
MS principal foreign adviser, a Swiss engineer
OF the name of Ilg, to take steps to accomplish
this with the utmost rapidity and at the same
time without giving more offence than necessary

the holders of the concession belong

the ground that these concessions constituted
opening wedges for the intervention of foreign
governments at the expense of national indie

THE RICHLY ORNAMENTED HOME OF
DANIEL O'DAY

The country home of Daniel O'Day, at Deal
N. j., on Deal Lake, which completed about
a year ago, has become known as one of the
show places of the Jersey coast. 1t is called

mination of the grounds is placed below the
level Of the eye of person walking therein and
the fixtures thus do not interfere with the land
scape in the day time.
The building is Elizabethan in architecture
the material being stone brick and cement
The main house is about two hundred feet long
and is so arranged that the larger part can be
shut off in the winter, having the part near
the lake, which is a comfortable house by it
self, for occupancy There is a large tower
which has a twotold purpose-it is used as an
observatory, and it also contains water tanks
G. K. Thompson the architect in speaking of
the place, said:
One of the strong features of the interior is
the great hall, extending three stories in height
with continuous gallery about the second
and third stories from which the suites of bed
rooms are approached. In this hall is a Caen
stone mantel, with life size figures by Miranda

the union of the ocean and the lake.

KNOX MAKES DENIAL
Admits Heated Controversy in Cafe
at Atlantic City, But Denies That
Blows Were Exchanged.

New York. Aug. S.-Attorney General
and Mrs. Knox left early today to visit
the president. Mr.. Knox admitted to-
day that he had been q participant in
an unpleasantness at a cafe in Allan
tic City last "Wednesday night. but said
the published accounts of the affair had
been greatly exaggerated. He said no
blows We're exchanged. Mr.. knoxs
version of the incident was that he en-
tered the cafe with>a party of friends
of four ladies ana three men.
AT n near by table sat a party of three
men, one of whom he knew, but de-
cined to give his name. These became
noisy and. as it was disagreeable. he
asked the waiter to have them put out
of the room. The waiter requested the
disturbers to be quiet, but instead they
became nosier. Then Knox escorted
his party outside and returned to the
cafe alone. An altercation enSued and
one of the men made lunge at Knox.
but did not hit him, and in a few min
utes i'll was all over MIR. Knox said the
statement that the trouble was in any
way connected with the trust question
is absurd.
