Filipino Cleverness.

A sample of Filipino cIeverness and imita-
tiveness was unearthed the other day at
the War Department In the course of an
examination of some old claims by the
church authorities for property alleged to
have been Communicated by United States
troops in the early days of the insurrectfon.
The church authorities in this particular
case allege that some OF their valuable
herds Of cattle had been taken by Ameri-
can troops. while that claim was met by
the charge that the insurrectos had seized
the cattle
In support of the latter statement was
what appeared to be a pass issued In due
form by Gen Stanley. the commander of
the 9Th Division, in February, 1901, to
Ballthazar Ramon and twenty followers.
who alleged that they were simple herders
but who were charged with having really
stolen the cattle, which It was supposed
the soldiers had taken. The curious feature
ID that this pass was In every line executed
by pen, although the body of the document
was supposed 60 be clean English printed
characters. The imitation was SO clever as
to almost defy detection, and that would
have been the case save for curious lido
matte blunder made by the forger. whose
mission was set out on the pass as ..for
the purpose of, to buy bits, horses and

STARTED IN GILLETTE's PLAY.-Miss
Kathryn Kidder, who has the principal part
in 1.-THE Embarrassment of Riches has
had an interesting experience In the theatre
cal world playing the greatest possible
variety of roles. She made her debut on
the stage in William Gillett's play HELD
by the Enemy" when Mr.. Gillette the au-
thor. was considered so poor an actor that
the management gave him only a minor
part. Since that time both Mr. Gillette and
Miss Kidder have become recognized stars
before the American public About six
or eight months ago Miss Kidder was mar
ried to the author of THE Embarra ssment
of Riches" Louis K. Anspacher professor
of philosophy in Columbia University. The
wedding was preceded by an interesting ro-
nance.

Coombs has profited by his association with

of womankind. Depilatories are sold more

ammonia. The peroxide is applied on bit
of absorbent cotton, wrapped on the end OF

The most delightful fad OF all is the

contain tiny sachet bag. Sachet bags are
