GOSSIP FROM THE NATIONAL CAP7HE PASSING SHOW IN NEW Y0R
Senator from Pennsylvania Brings
That State Much Honor.

Observation-Disclosures Chandler, the
wasp of the Senate" as he was formerly known,
has managed to get into his natural element,
which is hot water. He mixed in the railroad
rate legislation an intermediary between the
strenuous President Roosevelt and the vitriolic
Senator Tillman of South Carolina. The oppor.
tunity to have fun too great for Mr..
Chandler to let pass. President Roosevelt as
everybody who has come in personal contact
with him knows, is impetuous and in private con-
versation speaks his mind very freely and some
times extravagantly about those with whom he
may have difference of opinion.
On the rate bill the president had some
strong differences and to Senator Chandler he
talked very freely about Senators Spooner, Knox
and Foraker. It so happened that two of these
men, spooner and Foraker have been in Mr..
Chapdler's bad books for some years and the

SOCIETY DOGS AND DOG DOCTORS.

This has been the work of the show by the
Ladies' Kennel association at Hampstead, and
society has had great out-ofdoor diversion
the Of the fitting season. Mrs. Jimmy
Kenochan, the famous huntress, has been a
leading spirit in this enterprise. Altogether
this may be marked as dstinctively a smart set
function and the outdoor dog show is certain
to grow in popularity each year.
Speaking of society dogs, it is no longer
considered extraordinary that canine hospitals
should flourish, that very able veternaries
should devote their life to dog doctoring The

SENATOR KNOX REMAINS COOL.

Senator Knox, one of the trio named by ex.
Senator Chandler as having been criticised by
the president refused to get excited over the
report as he said that the president knew him
too we'll and knew his desire to enact consti
tutional legislation too well ever to have charged
him even in private with having purpose to
defeat the bill. Mr. Knox is of the well tried
friends of President Roosevelt who can talk
to the latter like Dutch uncle" and the pres
ident takes his lecture in good part. 1t is re-
membered that a year or two ago fulsome
magazine article published by we'll
known writer in which the present Secretary
Root was lauded to the skies and President
Roosevelt quoted as saying that Mr. Root could
fill any position in the cabinet and would make
a better secretary of state than Mr.. Hay q
better attorney general than Mr.. Knox

NEW YORK

NEW YORK Seldom has a foreign prince
made better Impression in the metropolis than
that made by his highness, the Gaikwar of
Barvoda. This potentate from India was known
to be in the very highest rank of princess; he
was known to be enormously rich; he was
known to own $2O,000,o00 in jewels alone, to
have solid gold cannons to protect his private
quarters in the great Barvoda palace, and a
chariot overlaid with solid gold for his queen

New York did not know.
The Gaikwar came, he saw and he has con.
quered. New York likes him. He is not bad
looking. He speaks good English. He does
not wear his 100000 pearl necklace but lust
plain clothes. He is earnest and democratic.
He goes to places where he will meet people.

Cure for Crows Feet.

Cure for Crows Feet.
The following little sermon may be
taken to heart by man as well as
woman. In business or the home life
it is equally applicable and breathes
of the best spirit til be preserved In all
vicissitudes Of life: BE sunny" has
grown to be something of catchword,
but it is a pretty good all-around
motto for everyday life as we'll. The
cook may have gone away in tenn
per on the very day of your dinner
party-it's a way cooks have-or the
dressmaker may have failed to send
home your new frock In time for Mrs.
So-and-So's reception, but frowns and
tears and grumblings will not help mat
tiers in either case. 1t may be that
the world contains other cooks. or
even that the same one may be in
duced to return in time to save the
day. And If not, why not pitch right
in and do the best you can yourself
with the best grace you can muster
If your dinner does not turn out quite
as we'll as you would like, just make
a joke of the whole affair and let yeur
guests laugh with you. Bless yea,
they too, have troubles of their own
and they will relish almost any sort
of a repast that is served with laugh
ter sauce. And as for the dress that
did not come, why, since you must do
without it in any event, just do with
out it cheerfully. You have other
frocks, possibly, and if you furnish
one Of them up a bit and wear it with
your lightest heart and your gladdest
smile, people will simply wonder why
they never knew before how pretty
you are and how tastefully you dress.
That is, the people who count for any
thing. And as for the others, who
cares about what they think, any way?
There are recipes by the score for
graduating wrinkles and keeping
crows feet at bay; but cheerful
mind discounts all of them. 1t isn't
easy to be cheerful when things go
wrong, you say. No; but it doesn't
help any to be grumpy, does it? Then.
in the expressive slang of the day,
forget it.. Cheerfulness is a habit,
Just as much as worrying only it is
a good deal pleasanter for yourself
and everybody else. Get the habit,
then; and the first thing you know the
worries will have taken flight. They
can not stand sunshine. In a cheerful
atmosphere they find themselves so
distinctly tout of it, that they prefer
to make themselves scarce. Therefore,
be cheerful. 1t may cost you something
at first, but it will pay in the end
How to manage it? Look out instead
of in. You are not the only human
creature who has troubles. Every
woman has them-and most men-so
you can not lay, claim to exclusiveness
along this line. But the world is a
pretty good world, on the whole, and
you will enjoy it more than you do
now when you begin to look out on it
with unclouded eyes. Leave the house
or the office or the schoolroom behind
you once in while and take breath
ing spell out in the open. And when
you do go out, do not always go shop
ping. Don't bother with bargain days
unless you really want something that
you can't buy any other time. And
even at the bargain counter be sunny.
1t may seem difficult, but it isn't near
ly as difficult as it seems if you only
start trying it.

Two new members in the senate are getting
a large share of credit for securing a sane and
constitutional measure through that body. These
of Massachusetts, Mr.. Knox has taken high place
in the senate during his first term because of the
reputation he had when he entered that body.
HIS advice has been sought and his opinion re-
spected far beyond that which is accorded to new
members. He has made but one set speech, but
his Interruptions have been frequent and always
on some vital point in the rate bill. Mr.. Crane
entered the same time that Mr.. Knox did and
brought with him the reputation of being superb
organizer.
When it seemed imperative that an amend
ment should be made to the rate bill to make it
constitutional in the judgment of the majority OF
lawyers in the senate, Mr.. Knox was given the
task of convincing his colleagues that the amend:
