BOGUS BARON

Webster Dougherty the Phila- delphia lawyer and clubman, in Lon don last June. came to Philadelphia to- day in pursuit of his bride, who had been brought home by her parents, and got q not reception when he tried to enter the Dougherty home at Bryn Mawr tonight. Several private detec- tives prevented the spurious baron from seeing the girl whose affections he had run away with last summer.
 Mrs. Dougherty. who is prominent in Philadelphia society, took her daughter for d trip on the continent early last summer. While In Paris they met Goe bel who told them that he was of mo- ble family in Hungary, and that he had great estates on the Danube. Both Mrs. Dougherty and the impression- able daughter were charmed with Goe-

SOAKED AT SUMMIT
 FOR HEAD TAX

The United States head tax which is now being enforced at the Summit by Immigration Inspector Domanus Mask evlozious. Is what might be termed "a horse" on the railway company, says the Whitehorse Star.
 The law provides for the collection of head tax of $l from persons en- tering U. $. territory, excepting from Canadians. Cubans and Mexicans. The law further provides that the trans portation company carrying the for eigners into the country must be good for the s4 per. but can charge it up to the passenger carried if 1t so sees fit.
 Now it happened that last year only one head tax was collected at the Sum- init, and the railroad company took the payment of the amount as joke, This year the company did not expect

 Just a slip of girl and frail look ing. Miss Alta has pitched for Nermi- lion against he strongest scmi-pro- has won her game every time
 She has a record of striking out IF men in the game and never allows her opponents more than six or seven hits Often she holds them down to four or five.
 Superb control is her forte. She sel- dom passes a batter and in addition to rihe-like speed, has a fine assortment of shoots and curves.
 Not only is she a pitcher of extra ordinary ability, but a clever batter She stands close to the plate and makes the pitcher put them over. She refuses to bite on wide ones. and when she goes after the ball does SO with q quick. sharp stab that would make many a minor lcaguer green with jeal- ousy
 Miss Weiss plays in gymnasium suit. the skirt reaching to her ankles This is a handicap every ball player can appreciate, and next season she will adopt either a bloomcr suit or short skirts. Nevertheless she fills her position admirably
 The showy windup of many profess sional pitchers is conspicuous by it's absence when Miss Weiss works. She wastes no time. but shoots the ball to the plate overland or underhand, with no hesitation. Base runners have lit tie chance to steal on the clever gIr, pitcnHr.

 The baron had not long been a mem Der of the automobile party when Mrs Dougherty grew dlspleased at the at tentions he was pressing urSn her daughter. Her fears were increased when she saw that the romantic young girl was completely charmed by the grlces of the baron. Mrs. Dougherty put back to Paris and told the baron that he must not see Marion any more
 After that prohibition had been put In effect Goebel and Marion Dougherty promptly eloped They hurried to Lon don, where they were married. Mrs. Dougherty cabled her husband in haste, and when Mir. Dougherty arrived they both went to Vienna to look up the baron's pedigree. They found that his estates were a myth and his title bo- gus. All the Vienna police knew of Baron Frederick Goebe was that he was a Swiss waiter who had done odd jobs in Vienna beer gardens.

TUMBLES
 500 FEET

GLASGOW. - A Stecplcjack nam ed John Goldie, forty years of age. met with a terrible doath Tuesday morning by falling from the top of the well known chimney stalk y the works of Joseph Townsend & Co. chemical manufacturers, Port Dundas.
 Goldie was engaged in repairing the top of the great chimney by pointing the parts which showed signs of de- cay The work was begun about two months ago by MT. Halls firm. Goldc asccnded the chimney about o'clock by the usual method which is adopted now days. namely a series of ladders, which has superseded the former method of kite flying About 8 o'clock MT. Hall, who was working at the base of the chimney, happened to look up and was mortified to see his workman in mid air immediately above him and descending rapidly to the ground. He sprang out of the way, and shortly afterwards saw Goldie strike the wooden roof of the works, through which he fell to the floor. 30 feet below.
 ToWnscnd's chimney is the tallest in the world being lGS feet high. and the terrible nature of Goldie's fall may be realized. When picked up life was eX- tinct but the body, it is stated. was not much rangled. though nearly every bone was broken. Blood, too. was on2ing from the nose.
 The accident was also witnessed by number of girls employed at Messrs. TownScnd'S works. They were nat urally panic stricken at the sight. The cause of the occurrence is uncertain. Mir. Hall does not think that Goldie had been long enough at the top of the stack to be overcome by smoke. He suggested that he may have experience cd sudden shock which caused him to let go his hold. The deceased leaves q widow and family

 The fight occurred at ' o'clock in the in the kitchen of the road house. and there were no eye witnesses present. It was at first thought that the wound would turn out seriously, but after 1t had been dressed it was found not to be so bad as first thought The Jap left for Valdez to give himself up to the authorities.

 In the way of rubbing it in on the railroad company, two mushers from Whitehorse boarded the train at the Summit the other day to ride to Skag- way. for which distance the fare is s3.S0. Before the train was half a mile away from the Summit the man with the monkey wrench name had landed the fellows for four bucks each and the railroad not only had to cough up the s3.S0 collected for fare. but had to dive further down and dig up 20 cents extra.

Judlcious Use Of Paint Counts for
Much In Preservation Of Furnish
inss That Have Been Allowed
to Become Worn.

Attention need hardly be called to
the amount Of preservation that may
be done by the judicious use of paint.
Many an object formerly pnpresent-
able is made good with a well-applied
coat of paint
Kitchen chairs, laundry benches, old
tables that coat of varnish would
hardly improve in appearance, and
even trellises in the flower garden,
which In few years must be renewed
II not guarded from the weather; all
these things and many articles of fur
niture might easily be restored to
newness by few coats of paint
Mixed paints can be bought, and
these require no expert knowledge of
handling. After the can is opened a
stick of durable wood about the thick
ness Of ones finger is required to stir
the mixture SO the paint and oil may
coalesce. The stirring should be done
thoroughly, ten or fifteen minutes be-
ing necessary.
A pint of linseed oil can easily be
used in pint of paint, and this will
make the quantity of paint applied one
quart. This does not spoil the effect
and is used when the painting is half
done and is beginning to thicken.
Only a small quantity of linseed oil
should be added at a time. 1t does not
take long to learn when there is
enough and when 1t has been slack
ened enough.
When the wood uses up too much Of
the paint only very light coat can be
applied for the first, and when this is
perfectly dry second and a third coat
can be given with satisfaction and q
saving Of paint.
Woods that do not take much paint
need only have two coats applied, and
this is SUFFICIENT In almost every case
where pianed wood is being painted.
All inside woodwork may be done
by The housewife, with the assistance
of stPfadder THIS painting Is done
generally In wfite, representing old
colonial style, or In oak or mahogany
All nat Is needed are two paint
brushes. one about "a inches wide
and very small one. The large one
is to go over tha wide surfaces and the
small one TO get into crevices or to
paint thin strips such as the middle
section Of window sashes.
After the brushes are used they can
be thoroughly cleaned with petroleum
and laid away for another time.

Properly Made Coffee.

With all due respect to the criti-
cisms of doctors anent coffee-drinking,
the morning cup properly made can
hardly be injurious, and is to people
of a certain form eff nervous tempera-
mept food. Coffee is so seldom
properly made, and yet there are
many ways of accomplishing it, In
some of the French restaurants milk
is used instead of water, and it is
therefore not only much richer, but is
really nutritious. Three tablespoon
fuls of coffee are used to a pint The
milk is put into the pot and when at
the boiling point the coffee, always
freshly ground, is put in and the
whole boiled for about seven minutes,
then strained, and is ready to serve.

HouseWork Mittens.

Kitchen mittens can be bought in
several thicknesses and sizes for vari-
Gus branches of homework There
are thick ones with straps across the
wrist to wear when polishing the
range, then there are others to put on
when scrubbing floors or sinks and
still thinner ones with chamois cloth
insides to use for polishing silverware
to the hands and finger nails, and they
really simplify the work more than
those women who have not availed
themselves of this convenience realize.
