SHARP REBUKE FOR GATES.
Holds Son of John ". Gates for Trial for
Auto Speeding.

New York.-''Mr. Gates. I have
heard Of you before. You are &
man OF Wall street with millions,
and you think that you can dc
what you please. When you men
have money you think you can &C
anything. Instead. men OF your
class should be an example to the
community.
These cutting remarks were ad-
dressed today by Magistrate Leroy
/ Crane in Morrisania police court
to Charles c. Gates, son Of John
". Gates, the fnancier, who had
been arrested last night for speed
his automobile in the Bronx.
Mr.. Gates smiled. whereupon
I the court said:
This is great occasion for
you to laugh. Laugh if you want
to-now. Such men as you think
you can do as you like You can't
do it here, Mr.. Gates.
Il have heard of your auto
mobile exploits before, Mr.. Gates.
Now YOU are here before me and I
am glad of it. The more money
you have when you come here the
harder I shall punish YOU
Your honor, put in Mr..
Gates, Il stand as high in this
community as anyone. Because I
am the son of a successful father
I should not for that reason be
criticized.
In the minds of men like you,
went on the magistrate, money
creates the idea that you can do
what you please. "
I obey the law, replied Mr..
Gates, and this is no good evi-
dence of the charge on which am
arraigned."
y am passing on the evidence
here, said Magistrate Crane.
4 will hold you in $500 bail for
trial"
Arthur J. Singer, Mr.. Gates
partner, appeared and gave Sc
curity. While Mr.. Gates was wait
ing arraignment he said to repor-
ter:
Don't put anything about this
in the papers. Why, do you know,
when I was arraigned here last
the story was printed
III over the country. I received
hundreds of letters from anarchists
md all kinds of cranks, expressing
lelight over my arrest.

The Bernhardt Engagement.

The sensation of the present
dramatic season IS the engagement
Of Nine. Sarah Bernhard. ard her
own company from the Theatre,
Sarah Bernhardt in Paris which
is now announced will be given at
Beethoven Hall. San Antonio,
Texas on THURSDAY, March 18th.
Bernhard IS undeniablv the
greatest actress Of her time. In
France she has presented through
many peerless seasons of undimin-
ished achievements all the best
I traditions of its stage. Despite her
quarrels, in her younger years,
with the Conventional ideas of the
Theatre Francis, she really inherit
ed from her illustrious tutors the
most solid traditions of French
dramatic classicis;n, and in her
first superb triumph as Phedre she
took to herself the absolute success
OF Rachel-before her, the dolni-
mating genius of the Gallo Theatre.
Like Rachel, Mime. Bernhardt
has been all FIRE and passion. Yet
while Rachel could be tigeri5h and
pantherlike in her moods, the tenn
permanent Of Bernhard has subtly
thrilled through the whole range
of feminine emotionalism: from
the softs accents and serpent like
siren aspects. to the fierce throb-
bings of passion, that found such
sensational expression in the melo-
dramas of Sardou, and have made
the names of the great French &C
tress and the great French play
right almost one and inseparable. |
Nine. Bernhardt's wonderful
powers are still as potent as ever
to sway and enthrall her audiences.
The story of her new conquests, |
since beginning her American tour
in Chicago, on November goth, is
a succession of brilliant ovations at
the hands OF her admirers She is
still as marvellous as OF old and that
city is indeed fortunate to be in
cluded in the list of her engage
nents.
The prices for this engagement
will be $500 and $500 for reserv-
ed seats with a charge of S1.OO for
general admission.
Mail orders when accompanied
ov remittance made payable to
Thos. Goggan & Bros, Palace of
Music, San Antonio, Texas, with
IN enclosed stamped envelope for
-eply, will be filed il the order of
heir receipt.

A Pertinent Question.

4 senator used to tell this story
Of an incident he witnessed on a
Boston street car. It was about II
o'clock p. m, the mystic hour when
all law abiding Bostonians lose their
tnirsts. The senator happened to
notice q man running after the car
and vairly trying to attract the con-
tilted tho. conductor, who stopped
the car. The belated passenger,
who was somewhat under the in
fuence Of liquor, had no sooner
climbed aboard than he delivered
himself of the following remarks: {:
"Shay, Mi. Conductor, does thish
road run to 'commodate the passen-
gers or the passengers run 20 COM
modate the road?"

A Different Spelling of "Turner.'

Apropos to this matter of sim
pifed spelling, it was the topic of
conversation at a literary gathering
in New, York the, other evening.
There was serious and emphatic dis
cussion for some time when at last
one Of the company very solemnly
inquired if any one present could
pronounce the word "phthologn-
yrrh." There was much question
ing, much repetition Of the con-
glomerate mass of letters; then it
was given up. Simple enough"
declared the propounder of the puz-
ale. fIt spells turner Don't you
see? Phth is pronounced t, as in
phthisic; olo is pronounced ur. as in
colonel; gn is pronounced n, as in
gnat, and yrrh is pronounced er, as
in myrrh." Amid shouts Of laugh
ter that word which nobody could
pronounce was finally pronounced
by ell to be the very best argument
OF the evening in favor of simple
fed spelling New York Times.

When you dine. en- famille ct q

how the servants manage to wash

article without breaking. I put the
question to q instron who is heE

many OF your beautiful goblets,

es, etc, are broken every week. y
She replied. Every glass Is insured
by,a company formed for the pur-
pose. This company sends to us
every dey. an expert glass washer,
q Bohemian, and if he breaks any
thing it has, to be paid for. Our
butler keeps tab on him, Of course.

SARATOGA CHIPS.
Ways In Which Tho Potatoes ATS
:. Prepared and Cooked.

=: Prepared and Cooked.
Making Saratoga chips, the Sara
ttoosa chips OF commerce, is one busi-
ness that is not in danger of being
monopolized by any concern. In
most of the cities will be found half
Is dozen or more small establish
ments where it is proftably con-
Quoted. -
It does not require much equip
ment. In typical establishment
are half dozen women busily en-
gagged in peeling the tubers. There
Is a mnchine that does the trick
nicely, but most of the manufactur-
ers prefer hand labor. An expert
peeler can dispose of the potato's
jacket in almost as short time as
the machine. a five gallon meas
'ure stands on chair by each work.
sr. A special kind of a knife is
used, winch rips off the skin with
absolute uniformity.
The chipping or slicing is done
by machinery. Usually hand pow
er is employed. The potatoes are
dumped into q hopper, and by turn
ing the handle it requires but a few
minutes to slice them into bits of
the required tlinness. These fall
in q pile and from there are shov-
eled into q vat.
This is a great iron kettle, con-
tanning several gallons of liquid
kept ut the boiling point. Within
the kettle hangs large perforated
vessel that looks like dishpan,
which can be raised or lowered by
operating a lever controlled by a
piece Of rope at the end. In this
vessel are placed the slices. A hot
fire is kept going during the brown
ing process, and the liquid is stirred
constantly to prevent burning. In
q few minutes the chips are done
and the mass turned into big tub.
The product finds the readiest
sale IN the summer months. This,
It is claimed, is due to the fact
that women don't like to stand over
hot fire in the warm months cook
ing potatoes in the ordinary way.
Twice as many chips are sold in the
heated term as during the winter.
: Lard is not used in: the process by
the best makers. This is because
it makes the chips soft and in time
rancid. Salad oil has been found to
be the most satisfactory. - New

WUMEN7S HATS.
NE Two Of Them Are or Ever viii DO
=. Just Exactly Alike. -. - =.

There are no two things alike in
this world--no twn astte::aas aiiiikze, aiiilkze no
two blades of grass alike, no two
peas alike, no two faces alike-won-
derfui--most wonderful Of all--no
tTyo ladieS' hats alike! Has this
thought ever been impressed upon
you while sitting in an ossemblage
Of women? Oh, the wisdom and
forethought of nature, for were each
woman to have q lat similar to her
neighbor's what an infinite variety
Ct additional woes and heartaches
and tears the human race would
have had to bear!
And yet Matthew Softleigh, born
and bred in New York, knew naught
of this. His tender brain could not
conceive the fact that everything in
this world is infinite in its revolu-
tions and ramifieations, particular
ly ladies' hats, so Matthew backed
his poor Judgment with real money
and made q wager with his friend,
silas Cute, that he would soon find
him two hats that were alike. -.
Matthew and Silas selected day,
alW they walked up and down the
great White Way, they promenaded
Fifth avenue, they visited the parks,
they strolled to the east 5ide, the
west side and every other side; they
visited the theaters, the concert
halls, the churches. From day to
day the quest continued until both
were weary and footsore. They saw
Gainsboroughs, picture hats, hats
with ribbons, hats with feathers,
hats with aigrettes, but no two hats
alike. They saw dreams Of red and
blue and green as well as night
mares and incubi Of "Arabian
Nights" phantasy.N There were po-
etry and prose, music and flowers
typited in every one, but no two
alike. What ingenuity they repre-
sented, what ceaseless brain activ-
ity; What thought, what feeling,
what delicacy in some, which if put
.lnto q poem OF a symphony would
earn him or her place in the Hall
of Fame! ......E.:..
:. Matthew lost his bet, and it is
well that he did. There should be
no two hats alike, there are no two
hats alike and there never will be
two hats alike. Nature, like wom-
an, is feminine. She has O. variety
of moods, Of expression, of beauty,
OF color, of form and figure, and d
woman's hat is the embodiment, the
epitome Of her every thought, her
every wish, her every desire. Not
one woman is like another; neither
can her hat be. And when the time
comes that two hats are found alike,
then will genius have reached it's
limit: ! and the world viii have lost
all its beauty and all that makes
life worth living.New York Her,
