Mrs. c. Chauncey Stillman, now daugh-
ter-in-law of James Stillman. the banker,
was introduced to New York society, to-
day, at tea given in her honor by Mrs
VIM. G. Rockefeller and received the best
of attentions, being considered one worthy
of consorting with the best of society.
While the Wight family in Augusta, Me,
is well to do, its financial status is nat
urally lower than that of the young
multi millionaire.
Not only, however, is Mr.. Stilman we'll
satisfied with his step, but it appears that
the Stillman family and it's connections
have fallen under the spell of the grace
and pleasant personality of the pretty
bride and have given her a royal well
come. This social event. today, attests
the recognition that the Stillman family
desires that she shall have in fashion,
able society circles here.
Such is the family prestige that there
is no doubt of the way for the young
wife being smoothly paved. She comes of

Not one person in ten speaks that word

Even people who know how to spell
the word don't seem to be able to twist
their tongues around the combination

of them. They may be able to pro-

American Drums Excel.

ever know that Americans were the
greatest drum makers in the worldE
said man in the business. Fact.
Not only do they make the most drums.
but they make the finest drums too.
And there's a great deal more to the
manufacture of drum than you would
think. OF course the cheap variety
doesn't amount TO anything. They're
simply toys There is just as much
difference in drums as in any other
musical instrument, though most peo-
pie wouldn't think so. The drums re-
Quired in orchestra and band work
have Il certain sharpness of tone, while
those used in corps and military work
must have u duller tone, and the drum
must not be so sensitive to the touch.
"And how many parts do you think
Il well made drum consists of? Wrong.
1t has 24S pieces, not including sticks,
hooks and belt. Everything must be of
first quality, too, for drum must have
tone first of all, and it must be CON
structed to withstand rough usage.

ODD ROCK FORMATIONS.
Two Queer Freaks Of Nature on the

Two Queer Freaks Of Nature on the
--a .. Island Of st. Helena. .f-
There are at least two queer freaks
of NATURE on the island of St. Helena
or ratl,er four, for one of them is a
group of three figures-known the
world over as the Devils Nose" and
LOT and His Daughters" Any one
who is able to study the island as it is
and not run wild over the NapoleOnic
legends which have clustered about
that "seabound rock" since the days
when the Little Corporal was housed
there in his living grave will find much
that will repay for investigation, time
and study.
The QueereSt of the natural forma-
tons are the oddities above alluded to.
The first of these initiative forms is a
rocky promontory which has been
known by names which signify OLD
Nick's nasal projection since May %.
1902, when Juan Castella and his men
sighted the island just in time TO see
the devil disappear beneath the waves
in the best harbor, leaving his nose as
q reminder of what might happen
should the venturesOme Spaniard seek
TO take possession of his Satanic maj
esty's favorite haunts.
Lot and His Daughters" are three
conical rocks which can only be con-
jured into representing a man and two
women by strong play of the imag-
ination. According to the views of
some writers they are weather worn
statues of colossal size, probably the
work of some abori0ineS of the island.
Their gigantic size, however. would
seem to preclude this idea. When or
by whom they were dubbed Lot ana
His Daughters" no authority has VEN
tured to saw
