Rhodes was less patriotic than Has

served company, but one of his own
creation, and chiefly for his own ends,
and he died sextuple millionaire.

what they need. Mud pies, that bless
ed institution of happy normal chill
dren, would be their salvation.
"A plush civilization is not the one
for children. The home on whose
walls the pictures are crying out for
space is not the home for children.
Parents must decide whether the up

rule the home.

GIRLS LONG TRAMP.
Two Young Women Beat Their Way
from Chicago to San Francisco.
On . Wager They Succeed In Cross
1ng the Continent without .
Cent and without Begging
for Money or Food.

Grace Fosland and Louise Gauss,
the two young Chicago girls who set
out from that city about month ago
to cross the continent without ex-
pending any money, have just reached
San Francisco. They left Chicago
with a capital of As cents, and have
reached the Pacific coast without do
ing much walking. They Jared bet
ter in the way of receiving transpor-
tation than they did for food, for
after leaving Aurora they went four
days without anything to eat. BY
the terms of the pact the girls en-
tered into before setting out they
could not beg, but were ready to ac-
cept anything that was offered them
Their friends in Chicago were sur
prised to learn that they had reached
their destination so soon, for it was
expected that they could not reach
the coast before the month of June.
Miss Gauss is a resident of Lock
port, ILL.,, but has spent much of her
time in Chicago during the last two
or three years, studying at the Amer
lean conservatory of music. Miss
Fosland is also a musician and gradu-
ated from the normal school at San
Jose, Cal, two years ago and came
to Chicago to continue her studies.
She has an income from her fathers
estate in California, and it is not for
lack of money that she beat her way
to her old home.
The young women planned their
trip secretly, confiding in but one
friend, who furnished them the
money to pay their transportation to
Aurora, after which they were left to
their own resources. It was from
there they did most of the walking
during the trip, doing 30 miles in one
day to Millbrook. They reached Oma-
ha March "a, where man, learning
of their trip, paid their fare to Og-
den. From there to San Francisco
they had to beat their way, and were
put off trains on several occasions.

A good pun is rather uncommon, but
a joke that may be SO described was
made recently by Mr.. Andrew Carne-

to whom some advocates of an Anglo
American alliance had appealed for
an emblematic flower. Mr.. Carnegie
promptly suggested the dandelion,
urging that the American dandy" in
the shrewd, Yankee, business sense
of the term, joined with the British
'ion," would result in a blossom
which must rule the world. He was
evidently not thinking of Yankee
Doodle Dandy, whose sentiments in
the olden time were not in agreement

WRITING A SECOND NOVEL.
John Philip SOusa, the "March Kings
Hard At Work on History of
His BOyhOOd.

John Philip Sousa is writing his
tory of his boyhood adventures in
the form of a novel-his second, by
the way-but it will set down almost
literally many things that happaned
in the younger days of the present
march king" Mr.. Sousa few days
ago closed a contract for the book
with the Bowen-Merrill company of
indianapolis, and probably will finish
it before his departure in the autumn
for his European tour.
He will place his story in the
southeastern part of Washington and
along the Anacostia river. There are
even to-day. There, too, is much his
torical ground. Bladensburg, besides
figuring in the war of the revolution,
was the old dueling ground where
gallants Of the early republican days
repaired to settle their disputes. At
hunters, who even now find great
focks of ducks, rail and reed birds
along the Anacostia.
Mr.. Sousa's book will tell the story
of two boy chums. One was strong
and full OF fight and the other was
lacking in physical strength but
smart at his studies and music. The
two were constantly together, the
strong one defending his weaker
chum and always bowling to his supe-
