Modern AntIautti-..

The quest for things antique has led
to systematic forgery and imitation on
the part of dealers. Paris is the great
center Of this deceitful industry, says
the Nation. There has been discovered
in the suburbs a thriving factory for
the fabrication Of Egyptian mummies.

Egypt and in due time return as prop

A funny story is now current about a
collector of medieval things. A GER

the fifteenth century and received for
his work some two or three thousand
francs. The dealer shipped the Chin

palace near Venice bringing back to
Paris photographs OF the palace and OF
the chimneypiece In stu. BY means
OF these photographs he aroused the
interest of a rich collector, who sent
his secretary to Venice to make sure
that the photographs did not lie, and
on his favorable report bought the
thing for $4,000 francs. On the arrival
of the article at his house In Paris he
sent for some workmen to open the
cases. One OF them appeared to him

An Original Girl

There is a good deal OF interest
emong friends of Mss Marion Jones,
Daughter of the Se.iator from Nevada,
whose wedding cards to Robert Far
quer are just out to see her IN the role
of married woman. For Miss Jones is
O girl of very pronounced personality,
who takes life in happy go lucky FASH
ion, and who at one moment takes no
heed Of what the next may bring her.
& The engagement to Mr.. Farquer was
the result of an ocean voyage, and as
tonished every ore when it was an
nounced, for Miss Jones had always
had a lot of men devoted to her, and
was thought to be too lacking in senti-
ment to bother her head about a mere
man. Instead she was devoted to ten
mis-. and at one Of her fathers homes in
Southern California had practically re-
gained her health by making such
scores at tennis as to make her a cham
pion at the game.
Senator Jones bought a superb place
not far from Los Angeles entirely for
the sake of his daughter, who it was
thought was going into decline. Any
such idea now in connection with her
is difficult to grasp, for she has entirely
recovered, but that was due to several
years living out of doors, most Of the
time on the courts, that are the best in
that part OF the country.
No one could ever accuse Miss Jones
of vanity, and when playing tennis she
goes in for the game. not for looks. Not
until this season were Newport girls
seen with their hair down, but Miss
Jones was ahead of them, for never
does she begin to play game Of tennis
with hairpin in her head. Instead her
hair is down her back in one long
braid. and the way it switches around
is a caution to beholders.
The Joneses have an apartment in
New York, and Miss Marion, with her
sisters, is there much of the time. A
happy -go-lucky place it is, looked after
mostly by the girls.

DockstaderS preliminary opening
performances Of his Seventh and Ship
ley streets theatre yesterday afternoon
and last night were greeted by large
audiences. Notwithstanding the various
other attractions of the day and even
ing about town. 1t was quite evident
that vaudeville continues to hold a
warm SPOT in the hearts Of many VIII
mingtonians. not only by the large at
tendance, but by the thorough manner
I'm which the audiences showed their
appreciation. The Seymours, Harry
Larose and Lizzie May in "A China
New Year" contribute a novel comedy
act which brought them hearty ap-
plause; Carson and Willard, two clev-
er German burlesduers, do a sketch
that rivals the original Weber and
Fields; The Ladell Trio contribute a
speciality introducing their staircase
feature; Mr. and Mrs. Lucier, in a re-
fined bit OF work: the dancing Harts,
in an up-to-date song and dance act;
May Wardell, the coon shouter: Cope
land and Copeland a pair of black face
comedians that rival the best Of them,
and last but by no means least, Isl and
Mandy at Coney Island" as produced
by the Kinetograph. the latest moving
picture machine. The last named kept
the audience in an uDroar from start
