AS Mrs Miller emerged from the bath tub, which Is zinc lined she came in contact with the gas pipe and being shocked grasped the metal lantern. This completed the current and Mrs. Miller sank unconscious to the floor.
 The groans of Mrs. Miller attracted the Dow family which was a the sup per table and Mrs. Miller was extri- cated from her perilous position in an almost lifeless condition.

MISS KATE CARL
Painter of the PortrAitr of Tsi An

Mrs. Conger had suggested the paint ing of the imperial portrait. Empress Tsi An and her ladies held Mrs Conger in high esteem. Mrs. Conger com mended to her majesty Miss Kate Carl as an artist of illustrious qualifica- tions. and Miss Carl was accordingly invited to do the work. She says she found the great empress an admirable and most interesting sitter. During her residence at the imperial court the American artist learned that many of our western impressions concerning the Chinese are mistaken. They are not towards, says Miss Carl, but only peace lovers. In the intimacy of their home life she learned to like them sim cerely and to admire even enthusias- tically their universal courtesy.
 Miss Carl has after long wandering returned to live in her native land. She has established her studio in New York city. LILLIAN GRAY.

Summer Gayeties On.

Thursday evening a few hours were most delightfully."- spent by about a dozen young couples who enjoy skat- ing when a skating party was given on the second floor of the pavilion. Fri day evening a party of young folks en- joyed a moonlight picnic a few miles up the river and Saturday & large number of the Crescent Club boys and girls picnicked at the Stephenson home, which Is about fifteen miles from the city, and one of the prettiest and most ideal places a person could wish for. for days rest from the business world.
 MT. c. W. Hooper. who loves the young people as much as he is loved by them, had the picnickers served with a delightful barbecue and ice lemonade. Of course all entertainments for the past several weeks have been of an informal character, but beginning with Monday many formal and brilliant en- tertainments are booked, so the shirt waist suit which has been so popular and correctly worn to affairs during Lenten season will be put aside and the decollete gown will hold sway at the many functions to be given for the next few weeks.
 Truly the full swing of the springs gaieties has begun and there Is no more talk of dull times. Among the events of next week which have no bearing on the club meeting will be Mrs. H. F. Reese's tea for Misses Ross and Winn Monday afternoon; the Dixie dance Monday night; the Selma min strels Tuesday night; Miss Nina La- mars reception Wednesday evenings; the Crescent Club dance Thursday evening and Mrs. Wiggs of the Cab bage Patch presented by home talent at the Academy of Music Friday even ing.
