WOMAN AND HER AUTOMOBILE

To drive an auto on Fifth avenue at
5 o'clock in the afternoon, is a trick
which is calculated to make even the
coolest man suspect that he has a few
nerves concealed about him Yet [
know of woman who does that trick
whenever she feels like it.
She is a slender, delicate southern
girl who. few years ago, undertook
to combine the joys of nervous pros
tradon with those of a severe illness.
Her wise physicians viewed her with
something like despair, but neverthe.
less gave her that great prescription
which is the one and only sovereign
remedy:
Get out-of-doors."
She was too weak for walking or for
horseback riding. They had been
her delight as girl in the south and
they made it seem as she says, posi-
lively too insane to sit in a carriage
and be hauled about" as if she were
helpless.
There remained the one resource of
automobiling, and she promptly took
it up. She knew much about the
mechanism of machine, for her hus
band was an enthusiast. But she had
never run one. The first thing she
did was to get good instructor-not
her husband Several women offer
advice on this point.
Don't let the members of your own
family teach you." say these wise
ones. "They patronize you in one
breath, as if you were a feeble-minded
infant, and the next minute they ex-
pect you to comprehend in one bril-
liant, intuitive fash the entire science
of automobiling, Get somebody who
knows his business-and who doesn't
know you"
Her first lesson was half an hour
in length; and before it was ended an
incident had occurred which tested
her nerve to the complete satisfaction
Of her teacher.
She had been running the ma
chine easily enough under his direc-
ton, but he kept DINING it into her
cal . Nhdt lhG iuOSL AulpOl tluL pa Va
running an auto was not running it,
but stopping it.
You may be able to start it and 20
steer it and to run it fast or slow,
said he; but If you haven't learned
to stop it in its tracks. you're not fit
to sit in that seat"
Before they had gone much farther,
a little child suddenly ran from be-
hind wagon and appeared straight
in the path of the woman-driven car.
Well--she stopped it, And she did
it with such startling dispatch that
her agitated teacher very nearly went
ort in a flying shoot over the front.
When he had recovered enough
breath to speak, he drily remarked
that her talent for stopping amounted
to positive genius. He added that ne
had taught scores of men TO run
automobiles. but that he had yet TO
see the mere man who. before the end
of the first lesson could have equaled
that stop.-Mary Mullett in The Out
ing Magazine.

What Is a GentlemanP

Among the Persians at the time of
Cyrus the boys were taught to ride, to
speak the truth and to draw the bow.
That meant manliness, truthfulness
and courage, all essential to the char
acter of a gentleman. The knights of
chivalry, who were the gentlemen of
their time, added the duty of rescuing
the oppressed and distressed and this
completed the ideal by teaching un-
selfishness and service. II boy is
taught to be always self-respectirg
courageous and truthful and invariably
considerable, not outwardly but as the
expression of true kindness of spirit
of the rights and feelings of others. he
will grow up, whether he be rich or
poor, a professional man or laborer
to have the right to claim not by any
artificial distinction, but in his own
right all that it implies, "the grand old
name of gentleman"

WEALTH or NEW YORK.
Twenty-Five states Valued at Less
Than the Gates Untaxed
Real Estate.

The enormous material wealth OF
the state of New York is in no way,
perhaps, more clearly marked than In
the fact that the total a.uount of real
estate-land and buildlngs-eXempted
from taxation is larger than the total
assessed wealth of 25 of the 40 states
OF the country, states the Sun.
New York has 81 500, 100000 of real
estate exempted from taxation. 1t has
SlS5,00O.0O0 represented in churches
and church buildings. 1t has $780,
100000 in hospitals and charitable in
stitutlons. 1t has Sl00,000,000 in
schools, exclusive of SGO,0OO000 in
colleges, universities and other build
ings wholly devoted to the purposes
of instruction.
The city OF New York includes. OF
course, by far the largest proportion
of these holdings, though in the mat
ter of church property the land and
buildings outside of the city of New
York represent total value of S75,-
900. 900.
The federal government has $50.
100000 worth of land and buildings
in the state of New York. of which
s60,O00,OO0 worth is in New York
city and sG,5OO,OOO worth in Buffalo.
The state itself has sS5,000,00O
worth of property, land and buildings
throughout the state. of which by far
the largest single item is at Albany.
There is SGO,O0O,0O0 of property
within the state of New York in
cemeteries and $4O.OOO.OOO worth of
property in libraries and scientific
and patriotic organizations.
Agricultural societies own $1,000.
600 worth, and township and village
buildings represent 22,5O0,00O more.

Madrid, May 30.-All Spain is re-

King Alfonso and Princess Victoria,
and the capital has not seen such
scenes of enthusiasm during the pres
ent generation. Tonight the whole
city is aglow with fire works and elec-
trcal Examinations, while the streets
are thronged with dense masses of
people All the central points are
literally packed. As the decorations
and illuminations take on their most
lmid hues, it is motley throng,
with touches almost barbaric. Swarthy
Moors wrapped in flowing robes and
with red turbans on their heads, Aus
trian dancers performing their fes-
tive jota, gypsies from Cordova and
Seville, saaam-can herders in red
velvet and tinseled gold, with many
representatives of Spain s clergy and
hordes of blind beggars singing their
melancholy music of Spain. AT the
street corners bands play for street
dancers, The municipality has given
free reign for popular rejoicings. All
the schools and public institutions
have been closed and the whole popu-
lation has given itself up to celebrat-
ing the kings marriage. The chief
events of today were the kings recep-
tion to the foreign ENJOYS and the
signing of the wedding contract.
