MRS GRANITE APT REPLY.
Practical Philanthropy Urged as the
Proper Thing.

When Mrs. Julia Dent Grant was
living in Philadelphia, in the house at
2009 Chestnut street, that her hus-
band surrendered to his creditors at
the time of the Grant and Ward fail
ure, it is recorded of her that she was
visited one afternoon by rich but
parsimonious old woman.
The old woman narrated to Mrs.
Grant the misfortune that had lately
attended a ward of hers, young
woman who had married a drunkard
and VINO had Just been deserted,
though she was penniless and had
two little children.
Il couldn't help but feel for her
this morning when she told me about
her trouble" said the old woman.
1T was well that you felt for her."
said Mrs. Grant. But did you feel
in the right place? Did you feel in
your IJcket?"

AN ODD JAPANESE CUSTOM.
me Days Twenty.four Eours Divided
Into Twelve Periods.

Inc Japanese divide the twenty-four
hours into twelve periods, of which
SIX belong to the night and six TO the
day, their day beginning at sunrise
ana ending at sunset. Whether the
day or night be long or short, there
are always six periods in each. To at.
tain this the characters or numerals
on the scale are adjustable. Two of
them are set, one to agree with the
sunrise, the other with the sunset, and
the four characters between them d.
vide the space into equal portions.
Thus, when the period Of daylight Is
longer than the night. the day hours
VIII be proportionately longer than
those at night.
Another popularity in their scale Is
that they use only six characters,
those from four to nine, and these
read backward.
The Flood OF Books.
George Brandes, the Danish critic,
is appalled, at the worlds literary
deluge. He has been compiling some
figures and finds that about 10000
novels appear every year. Germany
publishes 1000, Great Britain 1900,
Russia 1000, America rather more,
France 600, Italy and Spain about 500
each, japan $50, India 200, Egypt
dozen, etc. In twenty years the United
States and most European countries
have doubled their output of books,
and DR.. Brandes says that no library
Is large enough to contain all the
books that appear in the course Of
ten years. 1t will be seen that the
problem of the librarian is becoming
more serious every day.
Printing From celluloid.
Italian publishers and newspaper
proprietors are seriously interesting
themselves in a new process Of print
ing, for which important claims are
made, says the Roman Tribune. The
Genoese firm of Bacigalupi has &C.
CURED all rights in the new process,
and few days since all the newspa-

To Harness the Colorado.
Arizona engineers regard the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado as affording
one of the greatest fields In existence
for the development OF electricity
from water power. In addition to the
immense power of the Colorado itself,
large stores of energy are available in
the summer streams that leap into
the vast chasm. The plan by which
the power of the main stream will, 1t
Is now thought, eventually be utilized
| Is that of picking up" the fall OF the
river by means of tunnels. At point
about seventy miles north Of Will
lams 1t is said that a fall Of 5000
feet can be found in distance but
little exceeding a mile.
First Artificer Honored.
The first artifcer ever ennobled for
his work was Henry de Vic, con.

for Charles ", king of France, in 1870.
The clock weighed five hundredweight.
De Vic also received life pension Of
! 100 crowns.

for women are skipping, battledore-
and-shuttlecock, and lawn tennis. The
first is excellent for the tendency to
abdominal obesity to which they are
so liable; the second and third are
good generally. because they put in
action all parts CT the body. Walking
up and down stairs will also keep
down fat-and so will scrubbing. For
men. baseball, cricket, football and
golf are good exercises. Indeed all
the exercises mentioned are beneficial
to both sexes, when dropped short of

dumbell or Indian club exercise will
do good, and nothing is better as a
fat-preventer than a short, brisk walk
before breakfast.

far as to say that nine-tenths of the
jewels seen in the aristocratic ball

at home under lock and key or else
stored in a safe deposit vault, their
owners not caring to run the risk of
robbery by wearing them.

ALFRED VANDERBILT
TO SEEK TURF HONORS
Millionaire Is Buying Fast Trotters
for Fall.

NEWPORT, r. T.. July 17.-Alfred C.
Vanderbilt will go on the turf with sew
eral trotting horses next fall, and in
the near future he will be the possessor
of one of the most valuable trotting
stables in the country. Mr.. Vanderbilt
has been selecting fast trotters for
some time, and recently added to his
stables several promising colts which
he purchased in Kentucky. Yet it was
not known until today that he really
had aspirations in the direction of the
turf. Mr.. Vanderbilt was at Atlantic
City today. so definite statement OF
his plans could not be obtained.
Looking to the addition of fast stock,
Mr.. Vanderbilt had his stables at Oak
land enlarged this spring for the ex-
elusive stabling of thoroughbreds and
trotters. AS he has money and leisure.
It is probable his stable in time will
be one OF the most important in the
country.
He has obtained at a large salary the
services OF Trainer Wilson, an expert,
who was several years with Eben D.

Printed Such a Statement.

NEWPORT. R. L, July 17.-Harry Lehr
and the editor of a weekly magazine who
had evidently been badly fooled, had
lively discussion this afternoon over
newspaper proprieties and Mr.. Lehr
seems to have gained a victory.
He observed that the periodical, which
made its appearance this morning for
the week, referred to him as having
come to his door in his paiamas and
with red rose in his hair TO see man
who wished to sell him an automobile.
Last week the same periodical pub
hshed a cartoon OF Mr.. Lehr represent
ing him as sitting beside a champagne
cooler. This, he said, he did not like,
but the statement concerning him which
cantc out this morning he considered an
attack upon his personal character and
he could not let It go unchallenged.
The editor offered to take Mr.. Lehr to
the author OF the information and Mr..
Lehr. eager to confront him. accepted
the invitation. Two hours were spent
driving about looking for the fellow and
when he wes found he denied the whole
matter.
Mr.. Lehr said he could not have ex-
peoted anything else from such fellow,

reports concerning him in the future.
