Celebrities Who Keep Talismans to
Bring Them Good Luck.

Among the men and women who
have won name and fame in profess
ional life quite a number are to be
found who believe in the supernatural
power of some curious talisman which
they possess. Sarasate, the famous
Spanish violinist, for instance, would
not dream of playing at a concert un-
less he carried somewhere about his
person a tiny replica in silver Of the
famous Guarnerius violin on which
Paganini used to play.
Paderewski, the famous pianist, also
possesses a mascot which is always
with him in the shape Of ring once
worn by his first wife Most people
are doubtless aware of the sad story
of Paderewskiis first marriage, how
his wife died in giving birth to son

old of success. and how the world would

had not the necessity of providing for
his son compelled the musician to con-

finger. It rests in a tiny pocket inside
his waistcoat and is attached to a fine
gold chain which encircles the plan
lists neck.

No Display of Race Feeling i'll Kansas

Kansas City, No. April 1S.-Race
feeling at Kansas City, Kas., has ap-
DarentIv died out. When the high
school opened today, a squad of po-
Hcemen were drawn uD in line at the
main entrance to see that eighty col
ored pupils were not mOlested by the
ZOO whites. Boys and girls of both
races took their accustomed places
and no sign of friction was displayed.
The trouble grew out of the murder
last week by a negro of a white boy,
a freshman. and the whites had de-
clared that the negroes should never
again attend the school.
