Crazy Man Makes an Attempt to
See President Roose.
welt.

Washington, Oct. Ga desperate
hand to hand encounter with an armed
insane man, who was determined to see
President Roosevelt, took place in the
vestibnle OF the White House shortly
before noon. The man, who gave his
name as Peter Elliott, and his home as
Minneapolis, was overpowered by the
officers on duty at the White House en-
trance, and carried to a police van
which had been summoned While in
the van the officers had another desper-
ate struggle with the insane man, who,
realizing himself under arrest, drew a
revolver for the purpose of freeing lin
self.
Elliott is undoubtedly violently in
bane. secretary Loeb several days ago
received letter postmarked Washing
ton and written on the letter paper of
the st. James Hotel, this city. The
letter enclosed photograph of Elliott
and an incoherent request for an inter-
view with the president. The letter
was signed "Peter ELL" the statement
being made Immediately under the sig.
nature that the writer was registered at
the hotel as Peter Elliott.
The officers at both the White House
and executive Offices had been warned
to be on the lookout, and when Elliott
appeared they recognized him.

WHY Women Don't Fish.


How does 1t happen that the fisher
mans mantle never falls on the wom-
en- Of the house? Investigators claim
that the daughter Is more likely to IN
herit the fathers qualities than is the
son. We all know that with other
taints and tendencies-tendencie that
cause, alas, suffering, shame, disease,
disgrace, death-nature is not so len
lent. Women come in for their full
share OF the visitation for the sins Of
their fathers, and there are no physi-
cal traits or peculiarities that may not
descend in the same way. 1t seems to
me a trifle hard that when 1t comes to
the one Inheritance that yields such
absolute enjoyment, they should be so
mercilessly cut out.
l do not believe they are cut out,
except by artificial reasons. believe
the daughter Is born with the same
devotion to the stream, the woods, the
open air, the blue sky. the same intol-
erance of restraint, the same periodi-
cal longing to be away, with the same
sklllful hands and uncanny brain that
her father had before her, and that
her brothers are encouraged to in
dulge. Custom, however, has put a
broom In her hands, a needle in her
fingers, long skirts that bind her lib
crty. and the cry OF duty and decorum
in her ears.-Justina johnson in Out

Quit Your Wh:niur.

There isn't anything in the world
more disagreeable than whining per
son.
He whines If 1t is hot. He whines
If it is cold. He whines at this, he
whnes at that, he whnes at every
thing. Whine. whine, whine.
1t is just a habit he has fallen into
There is nothing the matter with him.
1t is just a bad habit.
The wilmer Is generally an idle per-
son or lazy one. What he needs is
to be set to work At real hard work,
mental or physical. Some work that
will interest him and engage his whole
whine.
We know two women. One of them
does her own housework and takes
care Of her horse besides. She Is hap
py and singing all the day long. The
keyboard of her life sounds no whin-
ing note. 1t is pleasure to be with
her, a good, wholesome tonic to watch
her.
The other woman Is so situated that
she does not have to work. Nothing
to do but to amuse herself. She has
no zest in life, no interest in anything
She is a bunch of selfishness and
whines at everything. Whining has
become such habit with her that her
most casual remark is tinged with a
whine. She is miserable herself and
ma1,as oyprvhOdv else in hnr DraSpnpa

A Plea for Simplicity.

Il pray you. o excellent wife, not to
cumber yourself and me to get rich
dinner for this man or this woman,
tIiwho has alighted Mt our gate. nor a
bedchamber made ready at too great a
cost. These things, If they are curious
in, they can get for dollar at any vii
lage. But let this stranger. II he will.
in your accent and behavior read your
heart and carnestness, your thought
and will. which he cannot buy at any
price at any village or city, and dine
sparely and sleep hard in order to be-
hold. Certainly let the board he spread
and let the bed be dressed for the
traveller, but let not the emphasis OF
hospitality be in these things. Honor
to the house where they are simple to
the verge Of hardship, so that there the
intellect Is awake and reads the laws
Of the universe. "-Emerson.

In mothers room still stands the chair
The flowers she loved now lightly still
In April's breeze, as though they were
Forlorn without her loving care.
Her books. her work box, all are there,
And still the snowy curtains bear
The soft, sweet scent of lavender
In mothers room.
Oh, spot so cool, and fresh, and fair,
Where dwelt a soul so pure and rare,
On me your fragrant peace confer,
Make my life sweet with thoughts OF
her,
AS lavender makes sweet the air
In mothers room.

Needle Work Notes.


Red and blue ticking nicely embroid-
cred In outline stitch makes excellent
pillow slips for ordinary use.
A new idea in lingerie is to leave a
cry, filling it In with monogram.
Stocks made out Of mems linen hand
kerchiefs are very smart affairs. The
prettiest have narrow plaid or dotted
borders.
The woman who loves pretty lingerie
and has time can make herself adOra-
BILE gowns or corset covers with bit
OF batiste and valenciennes.
Narrow bands of fine lawn herring
boned together make an attractive
stock. Some very pretty stocks are Of
soft pique with a bishop tab bearing
few small pearl buttons.
Effective pressing is one Of the Sc
crets OF good home dressmaking No
amount Of skill in sewing goes for
anything unless pressing is well DONE
Use a damp cloth laid on the wrong
sides Of the goods.
Among white stuffs best favored for
modish lingerie are India linen, from
20 to 80 cents yard, for corset COW
ers and the ruffling on any undergar-
ment. Nalnsook and cambria Of the
same prices are also suitable for these.
Among the pretty things to make for
gifts arc the neat little rubber-li
cases for carrying wet bathing suits
from the shore to the house. While
these can be purchased in the shops
those made at home and decorated
with a monogram are to be preferred.

"Many people who come to me to have

I tell them thai bad teeth in nine cases
out of ten are the cause few feel in

bad sight is generally attributed to

have you ever heard any one place the

PickwiclSs In Livery.

The dignity of some fat coachmen
in New York is very impressive. Their
development is outlined distinctly by
their coats. They have swelled steadily
and persistently year after year, and
every now and then the coats have
been let out and the buttons moved to
accommodate increasing inches of
girth. A coachman's figure has a great
deal to do with his success. The at
tempts of fat men to look lean some
times verge on the humorous. They
hold their heads high to escape the
imputation of obesity and puff out their
chests ~heroically. But with all their
hauteur, pomposity and ~pretentious
bearing they look only like very fat
men in tight clothes, reminiscent of
Pickwick in livery.-New York Press.

WAGNER'S HOME,
How the Great Composer Came to
live In Baireush.

DASC !"
How Wagner came to make Bal
reuth his home Is a rather interesting
story. He had long dreamed Of pos
sessing a theater where his compost
tons could be interpreted to suit his
ideas, but had little hope that the
dream would ever be fulfilled. When,
however, in his period of greatest de-
preston and loneliness he formed the
friendship of the late king of Bavaria
it seemed suddenly as if al things
were possible to him. In 1867 his royal
protector instructed the celebrated
architect, Gottfried Semper, to prepare
the plans for the theater, which was
to be built at Munich. Through po-
itical and professional dissensions and
~jealousies the town council of Munich
refused permission for the erection of
the theater there. In 1871 Wagner
visited Baireurh and, after taking
counsel with the celebrated bankers,
Messrs. Fenstel and Gross, decided
upon q site in that city. The munich.
pality of the town, correctly estimating
the financial advantages which would
accrue, presented Wagner with two
plots of land, one for the theater and
the other for his own house. The lat
ter was Immediately built, and in 1872
Wagner removed his family from
Trubchen, near Lucerne, to the new
home, Wahnfried. The corner stone of
the theater was laid on his sixtieth
birthday, May %, 1872. 1t was esti-
mated that the theater would cost
100000 thalers about $250,OOO), and
this sun was very largely raised by
Wagner societies throughout the world.
It was completed in 1876 and dedicated
with the presentation of der Ring des
~Nibelungen' on Aug. IS of that year
Since then it has been the Mecca Of
the lovers of Wagnerian music from
all parts of the world.

a number of brilliant electric lights.
Beneath this bell the couple stood
while the ceremony was being sa.d.
Mrs. f. p. Hawkins presided at
the piano, with her daughter, Miss
