HOMEWARD BOUND.
The Launching Party Is En- Route to
Sunny Kansas

Washington, Aug. 15.-Governor
Hoch of Kansas, his wife and daugh-
ter and most of the members of his
staff who came east to attend the
launching of the battleship Kansas,
spent Monday in Washington and left
here at IL o'clock last night for Buff
faIo on their way home.
Governor Hoch stopped at Washing
ton to see a son, Homer Hoeh, who is
i'll with an attack of indigestion, but is
now considerably improved.
Governor Hoch and his party spent
busy day and saw the city thorough
ly- After breakfast they climbed
aboard Seeing Washington auto
mobile and put in two hours visiting
points of interest. Later the governor
and Mrs. Hoch and Miss Anna Hoch
went to an apartment house on Massa-
chusetts avenue where Homer Hoch,
the governors son, lives. Young
Hoch is recovering from an illness of
several days, and the governor and
Mrs. Hoch called and remained with
him until night. The other members
of the party went to Mount Vernon
and Arlington, returning late in the
evening.
The party visited the congressional
library. Librarian Putnam assigned
an official of the library to escort them
through the building, and they spent
two hours there. All the members of
the party returned to their car about
IL clock. At 1880 the train left for
Philadelphia where the car will be at
tached to a Lehigh Valley train for
Buffalo. The governor and his party
will not make any stops for sight-see-
ing purposes after they leave Buffalo,
and they are due in Topeka Thursday
night.
This has been my first trip east and
have enjoyed every minute of the
time since left Topeka said Cover
nor Hoch. II had never seen a larger
body of water than Lake Michigan
and I was struck forcibly by the ocean
at Atlantic City Sunday. In fact, Mrs.
Hoch and 1 were both struck by it and
at precicesly the same instant. We
were in bathing and a breaker that I
was not watching beached us. We all
went in the surf and joined hands like
the others boys and girls and had a
fine time Atlantic City is a beautiful
larger than any other crowd that has
been attracted there this summer.
Washington is the most beautiful
city I have ever visited. 1t is also the
cleanest city l know of. I admired es-
pecially the shady trees and avenues,
the splendid buildings and the parks
with their beautiful flowers with their
graceful outlines. The congressional Ii
brary would pay one for the trouble and
expense of the trip from Kansas. 1
doubt if Solomon's temple surpassed in
grandeur that splendid edifice. was
disappointed in the capitol. 1 think at
least two more stories should be added
as it presents a squatty appearance
with the broad dome. The senate cham
Der is not as well adapted for legisla-
tive purpose as the senate chamber in
the capitol at Topeka. l was surprised
to find such a lack of architectural va
riety in the cities of the east. Especial
ly is this true of Philadelphia. That is
a great city but the most compact built
place I ever saw. In the west, we are
accustomed to cities that spread out
over much larger territory

The Existence of a Peace Envoy Is

The Existence of Peace Envoy Is
Not Happy One.
portsmouth, N H, Aug. 15.-That
ma king peace is a strenuous life is il
lustrated by the daily programme OF
work of the peace ENJOYS and their
suites. Eight sessions of the conference
have been held since the arrival of the
missions at Portsmouth, one week ago,
and all but one of these has been long
as to hours. Outside the sessions every
one connected with the work has con-
tinuous and taxing occupation with but
few hours for rest and practically none
for recreation.
The ENJOYS have breakfast before 8
O'clock; they are in the navy yard be-
fore 10 and with the exception Of
brief space for luncheon served in the
conference building, they stay in ses-
sion until evening. After this hurried
dinner is received at the hotel and the
work of the evening and night begins.

RoSen there was an outside duty ana

Hebrews. During this time. the Japa-

their duties of bringing their records to

that Sunday one cable company handled
$40. 900 worth of business including dis
patches from both the Russian. and
Japanese peace makers from its head
quarters here.
Both sides are very keen in the mat
ter of their facilities for communication.
The heavy tax on the local telephone
wires made it impossible for them to get
quick service between the hotel and
their conference rooms in the navy yard,
and complaint was made with the re-
suit that Secretary Pierce had the sys-
TENS installed between these points, one
for the Russians and one for the Japa-
neSe.

CLAIMS TO BE 1O4 YEARS.
Story From Wichita That May Be
Taken With Salt.

Wichita, Kan, Aug 15.-Mrs. Mary A.
Brown, who was travelling companion
of Queen Victoria and an intimate
friend of prelates and dignitaries of Ire
land, celebrated her 104th birthday an
niversary today. To nearly the whole
of Wichita she is known Is Grandma"
Brown, and her little apartment in one
wing of the Sisters of ST. Francis hos
pital has become a-meeting place for
many who are drawn there by the in
teresting stories and sparkling Irish
humor of this centenarian.
Mrs. Brown comes of a family whose
members were noted for their longevity
her father having lived to be ITO and
little girl when Ahe was taken from
Queens county, Ireland: to live at Liver
pool and it was while travelling to Man
chester one day that she was privileged
to ride in Queen Victoria's carriage.
The queen presented the girl with a
DRESS which the old woman still cherish
es and shows to special visitors. Sub
sequently she visited the queen at
Windsor castle.
Mrs. Brown was so years old when she
came to Kansas. The family in whose
service she was settled at Arkansas
City. She lived here until a few years
ago. when, her friends being dead, she
started to walk to Wichita. While en-
route she passed a Catholic cemetery
and going to the church nearby, de-
post with the priest sufficient sum to
insure her Christian burial Upon ar
irving here she purchased few yards
of brown cloth, and with the aid of the
Sisters has fashioned for herself a
shroud This she has hanging at the
head of her bed, for she says she wants
to know where it is when the time
comes.
For several years not day has pass
ed but that Grandma" Brown has par
taken of her today and to this she
ascribes her excellent health and I'M
clouded condition of her mental facul-
ties She does not smoke.
The birthdays of "Grandma" Brown
are occasions of much moment to her.
All the Catholic clergy of the city call
upon her, as well as other friends, to
pay their respects, and she keeps open
house.

The eclipse was caused by the earth
passing between the sun and the moon.
Bruce Blair, assistant instructor of
astronomy at Washburn college, OBJ
served the eclipse through a number
of small telescopes in the Washburn
observatory. I'VE did not use the
large one" he said, because it was
unsatisfactory. The small ones work
ed all right. There was nothing par
ucular about the eclipse. 1t was
caused by the earth passing between
the sun and the moon. Usually before
or after a solar eclipse, one occurs on
August 80 of this year. we have a
lunar eclipse. In some parts of the
world the eclipse of the sun on the
Goth will be total. In the United States
it will rise eclipsed.''

MOON WEARS AN APRON.
But 1t Was Only Very Short
One.

The moon wore an apron on Monday
night From $50 o'clock until 1920
o'clock, the scheduled eclipse was
plainly discernible from any point in
Topeka. The sky was clear as a crys-
tai and at no time was the partial
hiding of the big lamp obscured by
clouds. Not long after o'clock the
lower edge of the moon took on dark
shading, just as if it had been made
with a heavy piece of crayon. Gradual
ly it became darker and more marked,
and by 10 o'clock fully one-third of
the bright disk was dark, just as
though it were projecting from behind
a very dark cloud. Then the shadow
began to disappear again and by II
O'Clock, the full face of the moon could
again be seen standing out distinct and
clear.
