Romance May Have Caused Mrs. Lei
ter's Niece to Renounce the World.
1t will come as shock to many
fortune hunters in this city and Wash
ington to hear that Miss Margaret
Prettyman has decided to renounce the
world and become member of a nurs-
Ing slsterhood Of the episcopal church,
says the New York Press. The news
comes from London, where Miss Pret-
lyman Is the guest Of Lady Colin
Campbell one Of the lucky Letter girls.
Miss Prettyman Is the niece of Mrs.
Levi 2. Letter and was introduced by
Mrs. Letter just three years ago. The
young woman Is possessed of a large
fortune in her own right and It has
been said her aunts interest would
find practical manifestation in COM
Portable legacy. No sooner had Miss
Prettyman come out than she was the
object Of attention from those young
men whose footing in society largely
depends upon profitable marriage.
The winning of Miss Prettyman
WOulu nave ludl
mercenary gain. 1t would have meant
an open door not only to exclusive So
cal circles in this country, but in Eng
land and India as well. Several times
the engagement Of the young woman
was reported, but in each instance
there followed a speedy denial. Miss
Prettyman always seemed attracted by
the butterfly life and the few intimate
friends who have been let into the
secret have been busy trying to reason
out the cause Of her unexpected decl-
sion. The one explanation most favor
ed Is that sorrow has pulled hard on
the heartstrings Of the heress. AL
though rumor never whispered of an
engagement between her and a mil
lonaire we'll known In Washington.
New York and London, 1t Is said that
she received with something more than
regret the word of his recent mar
rlage. In fact, there was an lncllna-
ton by many Of her friends to favor
the report she went to London rather
suddenly to recover from shock over
the news Of the engagement.

NEWEST BREAKFAST CRAZE.
New York Society AbandOns Lunch
con for IL O'Clock Repast.

New York Society AbandOns Lunch
con for IL o'clock Repast.
Because luncheon parties have grown
to such complications, New York So
ciety, in its craze for more simple
things, is abandoning the luncheons, in
so far as possible, and substituting the
breakfast, says What-To-Eat. This is
an easy and economical way of hon
oring a special guest or paying off
social Indebtedness. The breakfast Is
served at IL o'clock and everything
about 1t is simple and informal as can
be made.
Children suggested this idea, which Is
proving such a boon to New York's so
cial circles. The grown people adopted
the style of children's luncheons, such
as were recently served by the presi-
dents daughter and her chums at the
White House, only they made slight
notifications and changed the name Of
the affair to breakfast" The lunch
con in question was in honor Of the
children's teacher.
1t was a room made sunshiny by an
almost unlimited quantity Of yellow
chrysanthemums, and the table decora-
tions were carried out in the. same
color. Yellow shades decked the can
delabra and round these were massed
more chrysanthemums, from which
maidenhair ferns extended nearly to
the edge of the oval table, which Is the
shape In favor now.
Just reading the menu suggests the
young company to be served, for 1t In
cluded grape fruit, tomato boullon
lamb chops and peas, chicken salad ant
cheese balls, vanilla Ice cream, ho
chocolate, bonbons and almonds. o.
course, other kinds Of flowers may b.
substituted for the chrysanthemums.
As a matter Of fact more matur,
women are beginning to think the.
don't care so much for the ladies
luncheon, but 1t has grown to be
comfortable sort of dinner, an,
r served anywhere from to o'clock |
. spoils the appetite entirely for tn
regular o'clock dinner. If 1t seem
best to honor a special guest at mid
day feast, or to pay off social indebt
edness by luncheon party, 1t is trlfl
= wiser to call 1t breakfast and hav
n 1t served an hour earlier.

Kite control within certain prescrib-
France by means of "devlator," and
this makes the kite available for life
saving purposes. A severe test was
given to the device some time ago at
Royan, on the east coast of France, and
wonderful things were accomplished.
Skates have been invented, says the
Scientific American, which will fold
perfectly fat and to such small dimen-
sions that they can be carried in the
pocket. A leather wallet with two
pockets Is supplied with each pair, and
when closed the package Is three
fourths of an inch wide, 1 inch thick
and the length Of the skates.
Even the nursery demands automo-
bile thrills A French toy of recent
design consists of an automobile which,
with chauffeur and mechaniclan, dashes
along at high rate Of speed for
distance and then the thing suddely
collapses. The two men are thrown
out and the machine turns over and
piles up like real wreck, to the de-
light Of the children.
Among fishes that are able to live n
considerable time out of water and
that habltually invade the land Is the
climbing perch" which can remain for
days out Of water, and which Is even
said to climb palm trees, whence its
name. The hopping goby," which
leaves the sea to skip along the shore
in chase Of insects and sand-haurting
mollusks, has an elbow joint in Its
fore fin which thus serves for leg.
Its gill cavity Is enlarged so that 1t
can contain considerable air. 1t Is be-
lieved, however, that respiration is aid
ed by the thin skin of the tail fin. In
climbing perch the gill cavity contains
special organ which seems to play
the part of lung. Landcrabs possess
an analogous organ in their gill cavi-
ties.
, David 7. Day of the United States
Geological Survey, referring to the fact
that within the last four or five years
the price Of platinum has increased
about tenfold, says that nevertheless nc
!. real famine in platinum exists. Al
present 1t Is always obtained by placer
Y mining, but 1t also occurs as arsenid'
l. and sulphids. The present supply Of
It the metal Is probably 100000 ounces
e per year, and the probable future de
j. mand is estimated at 100000 ounces
!, Systematically worked, the know
's placer deposits could yield 175,00
t. ounces per year, and It is deemed un
n likely that the arsenld and sulphid dc
s. posts will be worked until after tn
S. placers are exhausted. The high prices
" Doctor Day says, have mainly bee
ie produced by a combination of dealer
se and boarding of the metal.

1T is good" Curumilla answered, and
saluting for the last time the warriors,
who bowed respectfully before him, the
chief seized the creeping plants, and rails
ing himself by the strength of his wrists,
in second he reached the branches and
disappeared.
The journey the Indian had made was
very important and needed to be so for
him to run such great risks in order to
have an interview at this hour of the
night with the redskins.
The chief recommended his aerial trip
with the same lightness and the same
good fortune. After lapse of time COM
paratively much shorter than that which
he had previously employed, he reached
the camp of the white men. The same
silence prevailed in its interior the SEN
tinels were still motionless at their post
and the watch fires were beginning to ex.
pire.
The chief assured himself that no eye
was fixed on him-that no spy was on
the watch and feeling certain of not
being perceived, he slid silently down the
tree and resumed the place beneath the
buffalo robe which he was supposed not
to have left during the night.
At the moment when, after taking a
| final glance around the Indian chief dis.
appeared beneath his robe. the capataz
who was lying athwart the entrance Of
the hut, gently raised his head and look
ed with strange fIity Of glance at the
place occupied by the redskin.

suffragan Bishops Measure Likely tc
Be Adopted by Episcopalians.


Richmond, Va, Oct. 16.-After a
stormy day Of three sessions spent in
discussion of the negro question, the
house of deputies Of the general Epis-
copal convention decided to recon-
mend to the house of deputies that
the measure known as the suffragan
bishops resolution be adopted. The
house sat all day in committee of the
whole discussing three questions.
First, the Arkansas question, which
was to allow the negroes to have
separate bishop; second, the Pennsyl-
vania and North Carolina measure,
which was to permit the various do
ceses to form their negro congrega-
tons into missionary districts over
which missionary bishops would be
placed, and, third, the question Of suf-
fragan bishops for work among the
negroes.
The vote was first taken on the
racial district question and resulted in
the defeat Of the motion by a vote OF
227 to So A vote was then taken on
the suffragan bishops measure, which
was introduced by the Rev. DR.. Parks
of New York, and it was carried by a
vote Of 267 to 100. The suffragan
bishops measure will therefore be
recommended and there seems to be
little doubt that it will pass both
houses Of the general convention.

UNIFORM BILL OF LADING.
That of the Commerce Commission
Not Satisfactory.

wat VI t1G SOtffHlCICC COMMISSION
Not Satisfactory.
Washington, Oct. 16.-That the uni
form bill OF lading which it is pro-
posed to put into effect on all the
next, by the interstate commerce COM
mission is not satisfactory to the COM
mercial interests and that two sepa-
rate bills of 1ading should be adopted
instead, was pointed out at hearing
of these interests before the inter-
state commerce commission Tuesday.
The hearing was one CT the most
important ever held by the commits
sion from the standpoint of the inter-
ests affected, as the adoption Of
uniform bill of lading in the trans
portation Of freight by common car
riers by railroads will involve radi-
cal departure from the methods now
In use. At the present time the rail-
roads of the United ST. aA,s use sepa-
rate bills of lading and it is the de-
sire of the commission, the shipping
and the railroad interests, to secure
uniformity in the matter, the only
question at ISSUE
It was the concensus of opinion of
the representatives Of the interests
heard that a recommendation should
De made for the abortion by the COM
mission instead Of the one which it
was proposed to put into effect, of two
distinct bills Of lading which should
be uniform in character, one to be
known as straight" bill of fading,
and the other an "order" bill of lad
ing. An "order' bill OF lading, it was
explained, is a negotiable instrument
upon which money can be loaned
and a straight bill OF lading Is an
ordinary receipt which the railroad
company gives for CONSIGNMENT OF
goods. It was argued that should the
commission adopt the two proposed
bills Of lading, substantial justice to
all interests concerned would be af-
! fOrded

Russia Believes That of the United

ST.. Petersburg, Oct. 16.-Great i'm
portance Is attached here to the
declaration made by Secretary Taft at
Toxic regarding the Philippines as in
dicating the determination of the
United States to carry out an extern
sive expansion policy in the Pacific.
The Novoe Vremya, analysing the sit
uation, says 1t regards the retention
Of the Philippines as being "a clear
evidence of the aggressive Intentions
Of the United States, which in spite
of the enormous cost, is yet deter
mined to retain a military and naval
base, which is useless to them except
in case of war;
The paper adds:
1--WE regard clash between Amer
lea and Japan as inevitable. Other
wise the former would have got rid OF
such an expensive colony long ago.
Yet the clash will not come soon, as
Japan is now without resources, while
America is busy digging the Panama
canal"
The Russ, while attaching equal i'm
portance to the canal, says it consid-
ers that the Japanese have no inten-
ton Of fighting the United States,
preferring to follow the line Of least
resistance, adding:
"Japans real intention is to wage a
second war with Russia, which is I'M
able to defend her territories east OF
lake Raikal"

BOTH CLAIM VICTORY
Fish and Hartman Factions
in Legal Contest.
FORMER WINS OUT IN COURT

Obtains an Order Depriving His OPP
ponent OF the Voting Power of Many
Shares of Stock of the Illinois Cen.
tral Railroad.
Chicago, Oct. ICE. H. Hartman,
by an order of court, has been de-
pr1ved of the voting power of 1861
Shares Of Illinois Central stock in the
annual meeting of that railroad COM
Dany, which will be held today. The
order Of the court was practically
identical with the modification asked
by the attorneys of Mr.. Hartman:
Both sides claim a victory, Mr.. Fish
because the enjoined shares will not
be effective at the election, and Mr..
Hartman because his modification
was secured.
The Shares of stock ruled out are
those held by the Union Pacific Rail
~ay company, the Railroad Securities
company Of New Jersey, and the Mu-
tual Life Insurance company of New
York, against which temporary in
junction was issued Monday by Judge
Ball In the superior court.
Mr.. Fish on Monday asked thai
the voting Of these shares be en-.
joined The court Tuesday, after ex.
tensive argument by the attorneys OF
both sides, modified the Injunction by
permitting the shares to be voted I'M
der the condition that If any one OF
these shares should have a decisive
effect on any vote taken, the entire
vote is then to be null and void. II
other words, Mr.. Fish is given by the
court handicap Of 286,731 votes, anG
in order to defeat him on any motion
or resolution which comes before the
annual meeting Mr.. Hartman and his
friends must cast 286,731 votes more
than are cast by Mr. Fish and his fol
lowers.
The total outstanding shares of the
Illinois Central number 950,400. Count
ing out the shares affected by Judge
Balls decision, the total effective
vote Is 633,669 shares Based upo1
previous meetings OF the lluuUlS CoIl
trail railroad, the estimate is mad
that approximately 100000 shares will
not be voted. This. in the opinion Q
the attorneys in the case, will leav'
probable representation Of 563,66
shares at the meeting.
AS the matter now stands, boil
sides believe that victory is in thei
grasp. Both are, OF the opinion tina
they hold the greater number O
proxies, but the actual facts in thi
connection cannot be guessed at wit
any accuracy. 1t Is admitted by tn
attorneys on both sides that man,
stockholders have issued duplicat
and even triplicate proxies, and a
the proxy Of latest date is effective
neither side knows exactly where
stands; neither will give out figures
Mr.. Hartman arrived in the cit
Tuesday but did not attend the cour
proceedings. Mr. Fish was in cour
throughout the day.

Need Of Larger Navy.

washington is we'll aware that
Japan is stralning every resource 10
the preparation for war, despite the
professions Of friendship we hear from
certain sources, said Rear Admiral
Joseph Coghlan at the Army and
Navey club Ia New York, one day
last week. "The plan to mobilize a
great fleet 10 Pacific waters is the
most strategetic move for peace which
could possibly have been taken, and
shows the necessity for more ships.
To duplicate this United States navy
would cost far less than to maintain
six months war with japan or any
formidable foreign power. An ap-
preparation of $3.50. 900, 900 would
build and equip twenty modern bat
tleships and give us the greatest navy
Ia the world-a sea-fghting strength
that would preclude all possibility of
menace to the commerce Of the land
possessions Of the country"
