HER FAME PRECEDED HER.
The Journals story of Mrs. Lock-
woods kIondik Exp~eriences

Mrs. Hattie NJ. Lockwood, who arrived
in indianapolis some months ago from the
Klondike gold region, and who after dis
posing of her Gold Hill mining stock to
an Indiana company went East, has re-
turned to the city and is registered at the
Hotel English. My goodness graciousi'

never had so much notoriety in my life
before as the Journal has given me. From
the time L left Indianapolis two months
ago until 1 reached Boston it was nothing
but newspaper reporters. They are certain
ly an interchangeable set of men. The fact
that a woman spent two or three years IN
the Klondike and incidentally staked off
a claim on Gold Hill seems TO have caught
the fancy of the press. / am not sure but
what / might make more money telling
people about the price of beefsteak in the
Klondike and giving out other Informal
ton OF that character than selling Gold
Hill mining stock. But, nevertheless, Gold
Hill is all right and L think it is the rich
est mining property in the world"
Mrs. Lockwood fortunately prepared her
self with several copies of the Journal be-
fore she left Indianapolis and found this
an easy way to get rid Of the Eastern in
terviewer. When they asked for a woman's
view of the Klondike she reached into her
travelling bag for a copy of the Journal
and referred the reporters to this.
Mrs. Lockwood returned TO indianapolis
Sooncl IMAM SIt tApctltU. Last SATURDAY
in Bridgeport, Conn, she decided TO for
get Gold Hill and mining stock for a time
and started 10 attend a matinee. AT the
door of the theater a boy thrust a tele-
gram into her hand. 1t was a request to
come TO Chicago at once on a matter Of
urgent business. She took the train and
reached Chicago last Tuesday. The bust
ness on which she was summoned was OF
rather a novel character. "In the summer
Of 1899" explained Mrs. Lockwood last
night, II was invited by the owner of the
Clifford Sifton, a steamer plying the Yukon

While on the trip my little son fell IN with
typhoid fever and could not be removed.
About the time he was getting better the
owner of the boat discharged his steward

The owner jokingly offered me the place

Mrs. Lockwood's mmo TO Chicago

upon the work of the Catholic church
since its foundation To the present time
in the line of education. He dweIt forcibly
on its heroic efforts during certain periods
TO preserve the sciences. He mentioned
the fact that the early monks died In their
efforts to restore the classics of ancient
Greece and Rome. He said it was Pope
Leo XIII who opened the doors of the
Vatican Library for the use of historians,
that further misrepresentation might be
stopped. He spoke on the free-school
methods fostered in the early centuries
by the monks; of the colleges at Alex
andria and Rome; of the many colleges
later instituted at Paris, in Germany and
other parts of Europe. Father Chartrand's
paper contained a number of Illustrations
where the Jesuit priests had done much
Tor uferent countries in enabling them
to carry on the work of science. He told
about the work of two Jesuit priests of
the University of Manila, who had come TO

The Frieze Artistic.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
Ideas for friezes that look we'll above
the plate rail or bric-a-brac shelf are grow
ing more and more bizarre if not less eff
fective.
A row of old prints framed in black above
the dining room plate rail is an always
pretty notion, but not an inexpensive one.
Posters look well. but they have become
too banal for most tastes.
Japanese water colors against a back
ground of mating are very pleasing, and
If the knick-knacks on the shelf below are
of Oriental character the scheme is apt to
be particularly successful.
n lire of blue, red and white and blue
china plates against a fTieZe of deep yellow
paper gives a striking note of novelty TO
a recently furnished dining room.
A room paneled twO-thirds of the way
