Everybody Works but Father

The young men of New York have

times which the city affords to men
of means. The sober-faced veteran"

from the festive board along the main
street of the town. Broadway has hun
dreds of old sports who seem never to
grow tired of the white lights and

that it was 1 in the morning, he in

it is bad form to say anything other
than Good morning before o'clock

Kitten a Born Pariah

"Mephisto' was an outlaw. His
mother before him had been and he
just couldn't help it. Back several
years ago, when the great yellow cat

bright blue eyes peeping out from UNI

him away from her and, like many an
other of her sex, had deserted her child
for the gayeties OF night in great city.
But the kitten was undismayed. He
was a born pariah and he didn't care
whether he was abandoned or not.
The day following his desertion he was
picked up and cared for by a pretty
young woman who tied blue ribbon
around his neck and insisted that he
allow everyone who visited her TO pet
him and call him 'ootsie tootsit, feet it.

DOINGS, GRAVE AND GAY, PICKED

| Special Correspondence Of The Herald.
NEW YORK, Feb. 1O.-The gallantry
Of bicycle policeman saved Miss Maud
Adams, the actress, from going to a
police station, according to a story
which developed in the Harlem police
court today, when Preston Ketcham,

istrate whitman, charged with exceed"
ing the speed limit.
Policeman Givney who made the ar
rest, testified that he timed the ma
chine and 1t was gazing twenty-five
miles an hour. He stopped the auto
mobile. There were four occupants,
besides the chauffeur. one of these
was Miss Adams There was another
woman and two men i'm the party.

Givney is nothing If not gallant. He
bowed to Miss Adams and said

feur."

Parted. leaving the chauffeur to his
fate. He was later released on bail.
Magistrate Whitman held him in 5000
bail for trial.
Drink? Why, Of Course They Do
There is so much discussion about
women drinking in public restaurants
that the results of actual observation in
three of the big cafes may throw some
light on the subject. At Rectors the
other evening four of the five women
sitting at nearby tables were observed
to order cocktails as matter of course
and then drink them the same way. At
the new hotel Aston in the big room
at least thirty had appetizers before
them while the dinner was on the way.
At Martins everybody Including
father) had cocktail before settling
down to the serious business of the
evening. At such hotels as the Wal
dorf. Holland and Manhattan the prac-
tice is not so general, but this may be
accounted for by the fact that. a large
proportion of the guests are newcomers
and are shy about drinking in public.
What they do elsewhere is another
matter.
