level. Many of these banks are made of soft earth.
 Staff correspondents of local news papers who yesterday afternoon left here and distributed themselves along the sound in anticipation of the storm have not been heard from, although their papers have tried to reach them by every conceivable route. Not only is all rail- telegraphic and teephonlc communication cut off with the Missis- sippi sound towns, but there are no immediate prospects of news by boat, as craft has not come up the Missis- sippi river since dark
 The wireless station at the mouth of the river was abandoned. early in the storm, the last report being that there was about eight feet of water over the floor of the operators room
 Despite the anxiety, here tonight, however, there is a general belief that few, If any, lives have been lost This hopefulness was due to the fact that the coast inhabitants had two days warning of the storm All reports from these places last night were that water was rising and that the inhabitants were prweparing for emergencies.
 The full extent of the isolation of New Orleans to-day from other gulf centers was apparent Tn a Hull of busi- ness especially in wholesale circles.
 By long distance telephone New Dr. leans could reach only Baton Rouge and Houston, Texas, while the avail Houston and to Memphis. Railroad ser- vice north and west was interrupted No news was received to-day from the steamer Cainelia, which, at the begin ming of the hurricane, had crossed Lake Pontchartrain, and was about to land forty passengers at Milnberg, but was forced to run back without making her dock and recross the lake. Nearly all the ports where the Carnella might have stopped for shelter have been cut off from communication with New Or leans.
 Officials of the Louisville and Nash vile railroad this evening said there was little likelihood of any trans arriv- ing or leaving New Orleans on their lines
 Although the wreless telegraph sta tion here managed to speak with steamers 300 miles out in the gulf to- day, and as far east as Key West, no answer was returned to calls for the wireless station at Pensacola.
 The steamers far out in the gulf re- ported a calm sea.

R. MILNER's GIFT TO THF

How He Will Send Boys From His
 Home to Yale,
 Moosup, Sept. 20-Indelnite state ments have been published as to the plans of Hon. Edwin Milner of this town regarding gift to his townspeo- pie and to Yale university. The facts in the case are as follows: MT. Milner intends to turn over to the Yale corpo- ration two hundred and fifty shares of the New Yorg, New Haven and Hart ford railroad, as soon as the details of his philanthropic project can be put on paper. The income from this fund is to be used to help boys from Plainf1eld to go through Yale. MT. Miller estimates that boy with the right stuff in him can get along if he has five hundred dollars a year, and on that assumption the revenue from this stocg, estimated at at least two thousand dollars, will geep four students Geing all the time. ] In case there should come a time when no Plainf1eld boy wishes to go to Yale after a reasonable delay the college au- 1 thorities will have pmeirssion to extend the benefits of the fund to some other l Windham county boy
 Mir Mllner Mr Miners assistance t Yale is simply in assuring to the un- iversity studests who are there because they really want an education. The in stitution gets no financial benefit from tre gift, for all the income goes to the students. The chief beneficiary is the own town, which under this arrange ment will have chance to have four earnest boys at Yale in line for the higgher education.
 MT. Milner began llfe poor boy himself and by hard and honest worg has acquired a handsome fortune. He appreciates what it is for an ambitions boy to have the opportunity that his enerous gift will open and he tages this way of showing his interest in the town where he made his own way so successfully.

Peary and North Pole
Story Of His Trip Indicates Clearly Why the
Pole Has Never Been Discovered.

Commander peary's detailed account
OF his conquest of the fartheSt north,
published in the New York Herald,
makes it plain enough why the Pole
has remained a virgin fortress all
thru the centuries of It's siege, says
Golfers. 1t used TO be thought that
even if there were no land extending
all the way to the Pole, at least there
would be found bridge of solid ice. so
that covering the distance would be
merely matter of patience, cndur
ance and careful preparation. But
Peary has proved that even in winter
there are wide stretches Of open water
impossible for sledges, while the ice
fields are in constant motion.

Stuck Up a FLAG.

Leaving his flags flying from the
highest pinnacle, with a bottle jar
containing record of his journey,
Peary started on his return course.
But it was soon found impossible to
retrace his steps. Storm Camp, where
the party had been held up for six
days on the way north, was reached,
but after that the wind and currents
took command. For tive days the
party drifted eastward on a broken
foe. Then it cut its way through
what Peary describes as 'such hell
of shattered ice as hope never to see
again: conglomeration of fragments
in size from a paving stone to the
dome Of the capitol" AT last. on MAY

To Walk Well.

Don't drag your feet or fling them
not lag, nor stride Learn to glide into
a room gracefully.
1t is impossible for a woman to be
awkward in her walk if she walks
straight and keeps her knees stiff. The
act of swinging the feet out gives one
a graceful gait.
Walk slowly. Skirts wind around
your calves when you walk rapidly,
and all semblance of grace is lost. Walk
in leisurely manner as if you were a
princess, not hurried, worried, over
worked woman.
Don't swing your shoulders
Don't swing your arms.
Don't twist yourself in sinuous mo-
tions.
Don't comfort Don't wriggle.
Hold your chin in. This is the most
important thing of all.
Don't walk, nor look, nor act like an
old person. There are no old persons
in these days.
Touch the ground first with the balls
of your feet, with the heels striking an
instant later
sit with your clothes wound up around
you.
Don't sit on the ragged edge IF
things. Be seated squarely.
When you walk consider the style of
your dress.
If you are dragging a train, don't
forget 1t. The longer and heavier the
gown the slower you must walk.
And first, last, and at all times, be
dignified
An ungraceful walk will spoil the
most elegant gown that the dressmak-
er's art can design.

Not that they object TO the opinions
exactly, but the ideal woman must be
yielding and willing to be instantly
converted when her error is shown her
Men object to a cold girl, or one
whose manners give them the impress
sion of coldness-for in nine cases out
of ten it is merely a manner. Some
times it arises simply from shyness
sometimes from a too whole-hearted
desire to be coy. Coyness is delightful.
The masculine heart rejoices in it. But
a cold girl! The most beautiful face
ceases to be attractive to the would
be lover when he begins to suspect its
owner has little else to bestow.
Men-at least those whose opinions
are worth anything--dislike the girl
who is the least bit rapid in her man
ner or speech. They may talk to her,
flirt with her perhaps, but in their
hearts they dislike her.
Men are far from fond of the untidy
girl. The girl whose buttons are for
ever coming off, whose hair is always
addressed, and who habitually wears
a half-finished air, never finds favor in
