dHOLneTf procession to neT alTeddy long list by a narrow margin. Miss Lenox but recently embarked on the vaudeville stage in very clever lit- tie turn, and the fact of her being an ex-newspaper woman and magazine writer, caused the press of the coun- try to exploit her quite extensively. The proprietors of one of the promi- nent woman's magazines were so im- pressed with the laudatory comments of the press, together with the fact of their having some short stories submitted by Miss Lenox, that they of fered her a position on their staff. AL though sorely tempted to accept it, the song writer was forced to decline. owing to the fact that she and Harry 0. Sutton, her collaborator, are book ed for forty weeks in vaudeville for the coming season at very fattering salary.

 | Olga Nethersole got a verdict for $2,5O0 on May 29 against the Cleve- land, O., Leader in her $100,000 libel suit, which was the outgrowth of a dramatic criticism that appeared in the Leader over year ago. Miss Nethersole asserted that the article had not only damaged her business but that it was on untruthful attack on her private character. Miss Meth ersole went to Cleveland personally to conduct the fight. Dispositions from prominent theatrical men all over this country and in Europe were introduced. The judge in charging the jury told them that the state ment in the criticism which said that Miss Nethersole had been driven into mysteries by booing from London audience was admittedly untrue, and that they should find a verdict not excessive for the plaintiff if they con- sidered that she has been damaged by this statement. The jury followed the judges instructions. The case will probably be appealed.

 MT and Mrs Arthur Ebeling, a prominent couple in society affairs on the east side of New York city, were recently reconciled after an es- arrangement of four years through the medium of a sentimental ballad. MT and Mrs Ebeling attended one of the vaudeville theaters last week and although they sat in different parts of the house, their eyes instinctively met from time to time during the per- formance, making them both feel em- barrassed and uncomfortable It was well along toward the end of the per- formance, when one of the actresses on the bill came out and sang the latest New York song craze, Just Someone"
 When you are happy and contented,
 And the sky above is blue," she sang
 Its kind of nice to know there's
 someone,
 Glad to share 1t all with you"
 MT and Mrs Ebeling's eyes met with look that they had not con- tained in four long years, and as the singer proceeded to tell through the song lyric, how nice 1t was to also have someone to share your troubles, the estranged pair were doing some hard thinking. At the conclusion of ! the play, they were both in a wonder full receptive mood for reconciliation. In the jam at the theater door, some- how in an unexplainable manner, they found themselves very close to- gether. Mir Ebeling also found him. self possessed of his wife's hand as he left responsive squeeze, he whispered in her ear: "Ethel, I want Just Someone to come home with me and that Just Someone is yourself" [" They got in the cab and drove home for the first time together in four years. Now all their friends are talking about this romance of real life which reads like fiction, but the happy couple are not worrying over their friends opinion and the neigh bors hear them at the piano every night singing together the chorus of Just Someone" the song that re- united them.
 Someone to love and cheer you.
 Someone when things go wrong,
 Someone to snuggle near you,
 Someone to hear your song"
