NEW SHORT STORIES
When PEARSON Davies lied.

The SuaYe, courteous and 1mperturD-
able Charles e. Davies, known be-
cause of his mild voice, pleasant man
ner and quiet style of dress as Par
son" Davies, manager of prize fighters,
was recently in town for a few days,
SAYS the New York American. The
parsons visits to the metropolis serve
always to bring out some new anec-
dote of his varied and variegated ex-
perience. The latest tells Of the only
case on record where his presence Of
mind failed him and he had to retreat
before a storm Of wrath.
The incident occurred in England.
Peter Jackson, the negro, under Da-
yies' management had just blasted the
reputation Of the ponderous Jem Smith,
then champion of that country After
that fight, which was held in the ia
NOUS Pelican club in London, the 'par-
son" arranged for Jackson to appear
at a benefit for Smith in a HOlbOrn
theater. Frank Hines was the master
of ceremonies. Hines was a little fell
AOW, whose stock in trade was his
evening clothes, about two and half
sizes too large for him, his Chester
fieldian manner and his polite address.
The house was full when the hour ar
rived for Jackson's appearance. The
Brittshers up to that time had been in
fairly good hunor.
Then Mr. Hines stepped to the foot
lights and, bowling and smiling, said,
Ladies and gents, l beg to introduce
to your notice our American cousin,
Mr.. Charles e. Parson Davies"
The words scarcely had been uttered
when the whole house jumped to it's
feet With pewters raised and eyes

White House Stems.

Until Theodore Roosevelt became
president the White House had a wine
cellar and a dark room in the attic set
aside as a stOreroom for liquors. He
did away with them both
But he devoted them to other uses
simply because he needed the room for
his larger family, which, being so much
larger than the average president has
had, required more accommodation.
President Roosevelt has made the
unique record of serving beer to a
large company in the White House.
When Prince Henry Of Prussia was
in the city few years ago the presi-
dent had a fest for him in which
casks Of beer were the chief ornamen-
tai pieces. The White House party did
not hold the equipment needed to serve
the beer, SO the president asked a local
saloon keeper to send up ten or fifteen
dozen STEMS When Prince Henry
drained his, on the bottom Of the stein
were disclosed these words: "Stolen
from Ernst Gerstenberg
The thrifty Gerstenberg had paid
such heavy tribute to his stein collect
ing patrons that he undertook to stop
the thieving by having the legend
blown in the bottoms. President Roose-
welt at first was inclined to pommel
Gerstenberg, but the legend added so
much to the gayety of the party that
instead of saying sarcastic things to
the saloon keeper he thanked him for
his unconscious contribution to the fun
of the evening" Cincinnati Enquirer

A Memorial Stone.

Upon the question of repairing a
pavement at Swanage being raised it
was elected at a meeting of the urban
council that one Of the stones was
used by Judge Jeffreys for the bloody
assize, several of the condemned pris-
oners being hanged on the gallows
from the stone, which had been taken
from it's original position and placed
in the pavement about fifty years ago.
The council readily consented 70 hand
1t over to a gentleman who desired to
restore the stone as near as possible
to its original position, so that it
might be preserved as a memorial not
OF Judge Jeffreys, it was explained,
but Of the delightful times in which
some of our forefathers lived."-Lon-

MOURNING FROCK OF DULL BROADCLOTH.
ished Isle or silk gloves are proper in
warm weather. OF course the en-
broidered top gloves that we see in the
shops would come under the ban of all
embroidered things in mourning. This
rule also applies to hosiery, only the
plainest Of stockings being permissi-
BILE and lace hose entirely de mode
during the mourning period Dull kid
boots are the correct footwear. In
purses the dull jet beaded bags are
correct for dress and dull finished
feathers in black for more practical
use. Gun metal and dull jet orna-
ments are equally favored, the jet be-
ing later fashion and therefore ac-
counted better style. Bright jet may
be used during the later periods of
mourning. Jewels are not worn in the
earlier periods of mourning, a widow
escheWing these for the first six
months. After that period she may
wear pearls and diamonds, but, of
course, no colored stones. In case of
some undelayable festivity in the fami-
", like wedding, a widow may adorn
her white Grape costume with white
jewels even before the lapse of the six
months period. AMY VARNUM. !

NEW AUTO COURSE.
Winter Race Meet Planned to Be Held
In January at Savannah.

In January at Savannah.
The Savannah Automobile club and a
number of prominent citizens, includ-
ing Mayor Tiedeman, have been quiet
ly planning to hold a stock car race
this winter, probably in January. A
ten mile stretch of road in the out
skirts of the city has been selected
for the proposed course, and 1t is prob
able that it may be increased, if neces-
sary, 20 twenty miles or more. Over
this route it is proposed to hold as
early in January as practicable con
test of about 800 miles for stock cars.
The Savannah authorities will ask
the American Automobile association
to sanction the event when the details
are thoroughly worked out. The long
distance stock car race, however, will
not be the only automobile event to be
held, as it is proposed to conduct a
series Of interesting events during the
winter, the entries of course determin-
ing the exact nature of the other races.
