$4,000 damages from rotor L. f3el! Il
dentist, alleging breach OF promise to
marry, lost her suit in New YORK, Judge
i1askeli granted the @otion tor dismissal
defendant incapacitated himself from
marrying either the plaintiff or any other
woman. and further that there was no
evidence Of Il promise of marriage on the
dentists part. When the decision WAS
rendered Miss Kanter looked as if she
had received Il heavy blow. She was
led from court by her friends.
One advertising firm on New York has
evidently taken the hint from the masked
dancer who caused such furore at Il
local theater not so long since. This
girl stands in Il shop window on Broad
way with tiny black mask covering her
face just around the eyes, and. of course,
there is crowd OF men standing before
the window all day long. The curious
thing about the effect of the mask is
that, while most of these young women
who make their living by exhibiting
| themselves in this public fashion never
seem to be self-conscious, this particular
girl looks as though she were blusaing
all the time.
One of the unfinished palaces on Fifth
avenue, New York city is adorned with
an unusual bit of carving. The railing
of an upper balcony is formed of a de-
sign made up of the initial letter of the
family name. This is surmounted with
coronet of nine points. Such heraldlc
decoration on European houses is COM
mon enough. but is not known in this
country. The only appropriateness III
this case is to be found in the fact that
this particular family happens to in
clude duchess. 1t is more probable,
however, that the owner knows nothing

of the architects.

notices of the play in London were, with
scarcely an exception kind; in some
cases enthusiastic The general opinion
seems to have been much the same MS

and acts were uncommonly effective and
