 Women can tell good stories as well as men. Here is one related by Mrs. Chapman Sinnickson, the Western lec- turer:

The Stage Kiss.
New York Journal.


 Stage kisses! The picture as pre- scented to the audience is very pretty, but the vision which looms up before the eyes of the poor player Is some thing like this: A face covered with a coating of cold cream, which has been powdered over with a thick layer of pearl white or brunei powder, as the case may be. On the cheeks are daubs of rouge. which at that close range fin no possible manner suggest, IS they do to the audience. the rosy cheeks of a country lassie over the eyes are rubbed a little dark blue powder to make them poetical. The underlids are heavily penciled, and a mark extends a quarter of an Inch from the eye at the end. This makes them larger. Upon each separate lash is a bead of black cosmetic, which has the effect of making them heavy and long. The cherry lips, which to the audience the hero is eager to press 10 his own are to his distorted vision at such close range only gash of carmine.
 The actress sees before her a picture even less attractive. for ten chances to one the hero. in addition to his rease-paint, wears false mustache. and is also smelly" with tobacco.
 The glare of the footlights tones down this conglomeration of paint, and at a distance the faces are actually pretty. but upon close inspection re- semble nohing more than very bad oil painting.

AGAIN LOWERS THE RECORD
Lusitania Clips Seventy-two Minutes
From Former Mark.

New York, Nov. 8-The marvellous
record established less than a month
ago by the giant turbine Cunarder
Lusitania, when she cut several hours
from the passage time across the At
lantic, already has been broken. The
Lusitania still retains the title Of
queen of the seas, as it was she her
self that esta blished the new low mark
and incidentally she added several
new records to her credit These in
clude the best single days run, 61S
knots, made Nov. 6; an average Of
more than 900 knots for every full
day and an average hourly speed of
24.25 knots for the full 2,781 miles.
On her last voyage the Lusitania
covered the distance in days, 10
hours and 50 minutes. The voyage
just ended over the same course was
completed in 4 days, 10 hours and 80
minutes. thus clipping one hour and
twelve minutes from the previous low
mark. And this was done in the face
of conditions none 100 favorable. From
the start the weather was stormy and
on the last two days, when the big
steamer was on the home stretch.
where the greatest burst Of speed
might have been expected. she drove

wind, high seas and occasional sharp

way, Thomas F. Foley, for sheriff, the
head of the ticket, having a plurality
of 26.723 over NJ. F. Ihmsen, indie

comparatively light vote. The fusion
between the Republicans and the In
dependence league was a failure, ex-

Democrats were generally successful,
but in Kings county (Brooklyn the
