Miss Roosevelt will not be pre-
scented formally to Washington So
ciety until next winter. BY that
time Theo. Roosevelt will be on
the verge of becoming an Eek" but
he will still have the winter and
until March 4 in the White House;
so that Ethel will have a short
chance at the official whirl. The
problem will be to give her a fast
and furious good time--to sort of
even things up for the great gobs
that big sister picked off before she
rescued Nick from obscurity.
l am told that the second daugh-
ter Of Pres. Roosevelt never will
give Washington such thrills as
Princess Alice" did. She Is demure
and grave. She does not use
slang; she is not passionately fond
of dress; she is not at all theletic;
she never goes to the races. She Is
very like her mother. She reads,
sews, draws and plays the piano a
little bit. She is not IA good musi-
clan nor a wonderful artist, though
her pen sketching is rather clever.

son of Ex-AttOrney General Knox,
with that of Ethel Roosevelt. Of
course, there is absolutely nothing
in it; and, of course, it would be
denied until the engagement was
announced. SO it is still in the tea
cup stage.
To marry off young lady be-
fore she is really "out" may seem
little premature. But that does
not worry Washington. Miss Ether
is II, and girls, you know, have
been married at II. Those who
have seen most of her say she is
of the marrying kind-domestic
and home loving in her tastes. She
does clever things with her needle,
and could turn skillet in the
kitchen if she had to.

ZERO SALT BREEZES BLOW DISEASE GERMS
OUT OF THIS Cf1HDRENSSCHOOL

PROVIDENCE, R. l., Feb. 21-
what would you think of going to
church in zero weather and sitting
through the service, bundled up in
your heavy wraps and your feet
resting upon warmers, while a fresh
set breeze swept through the open
windows playing hide and seek
among your winter plumes.
Virtually that is what the % pu-
pills of the first fresh air school in
America are doing here, only in
stead of an hour they spend the or
binary school day under such con-
ditions.
Each of the pupils has been Sc
lected because he has developed
symptoms of pulmonary trouble.
They were chosen. by the League
for the Suppression of tuberculosis,
to whose efforts is due the establish
ment of the fresh air school as a
part of the regular school system of
the city.
The school has been fitted up in
an abandoned Quaker meeting
house, built 100 years ago, and still
in good condition for this purpose.
The five big swinging windows fac
ing Narragansett bay. are caught up
by means of rope and pulley, and
are never lowered during school
hours save in case of a storm.
The possibility of dangerous
draught has been obviated by in
closing completely the opposite side
of the room, where a huge black
board has been erected. The open
windows look down upon the bay,
from which the salt breezes wing
their way into the big room, win
moving out the microbes of disease.
The pupils are all small boys and
girls They wear their heavy win
ter clothing, and, when it is ex
tremely cold, their caps and muf-
fiers. Each child is supplied with
warm, heavy bag. which is drawn
up over the lower limbs to the waist
and tied. The feet and legs in this
manner are given additional pro-
lection against the cold.
For the feet either hot bags of
sand or heated stones are supplied
as warmers. Every precaution is
taken against the little ones becam-

NORWALK, o., Feb. 21.-The
trial of Mrs. Martha J. Campbell,
charged with arson, has precipitated
a social feud here which it will take
years to wipe out. Two women,
friends since girlhood, glare at each
other across the court room in un-
relenting hatred. Their friends
have taken sides as well. Social
chaos results.
1t is a strange case; one of the
most remarkable the state has ever
known. The conditions are intensi-
fed by the prominence of the peo-
pie involved. 1t is aggravated by
the friendships it has broken.
Friends of years pass each other on
the street without sign of recog
milton.
Both women had long been prom
inent in the life of the town. Mrs.
Campbell was for years superin-
tendent of a local Sunday school
and president of the w. C. T. U.
Miss Loa Mather was belle in her
younger days and for 20 years prin.
cipal in one of the public schools.
Mrs. Campbell married. her hus-
band being leading business man.
Miss Mather rejected all suitors
she was a woman of advanced ideas
a leader in the fight for woman s
rights. Her influence in the WON
ems clubs kept pace with her ad
vancing years.
The women continued to live
neighbors. A year ago, at the age
of 81, Miss Mather found herself

of the south a chance to force itself
into the north.
This declaration comes from q.
w. Mitchell, supreme commander of
the Loyal Legion of Labor of the
United States. Mr.. Mitchell is a
negro of education and intelligence.
He spent five years recently in the
south studying the negro problem
there. He devised a plan for rid
ding American cities of the black
menace, and put it into effect at
Akron, o., with the result that that
city was lceaned of every negro
dive, and the city council rendered
him a vote of thanks.

MUST GIVE BACK
CITY SIDEWALK

There have been frequent COM
plants of late about the manner in
which the Seehorn Transfer Co. at
tempts to occupy all the sidewalk
near its offices on Post st. On &C
count of this Police Chief Rice has
notified the company that they must
not pile trunks or baggage on other
peoples property. There is no rear
entrance to the storerooms and the
sidewalks are blocked at all hours
of the day, as the company appar-
emily considers the pavement pri-
vate property.

The children do not move from
their seats during the sessions, but
recite from their desks, the teacher
making the rounds and calling upon
east in turn. They are permitted to
romp outside without restraint dur
ing the recess periods. In one end
of the room is big round stove at
which they warm themselves upon
reaching the school room and be-
fore donning the bags for the ses-
sions.
This is the first experiment of the
kind in the United States. A sim
liar school is conducted in Chariot
tenburg, near Berlin, the children
being taught in the open air, and in
England school is conducted in a
tent. This school is upon the lean

sally recommend for persons suffer

alone. an aunt with whom she had
lived for years, having died. Rela-
tives in Toledo desired her to come
and reside with them.
Twice in close succession fires
were discovered. in her home. Both
were extinguished Later the house
burned to the ground. 1t was in
sured for $1,000. A deputy state fire
marshal made an investigation. The
result was the indictment of Mrs.
Campbell for arson.
In the trial an alleged confession
of Miss Mather was offered as evil
dence against Mrs. Campbell. The
statement was signed by Miss Ma
Their 1t stated that Mrs. Campbell
had persuaded her to set fire twice
to her home, the object being to col
lect the insurance. Mrs Campbell,
it stated, was to purchase the land
after the house was burned. When
two fires had failed Mrs. Campbell
had promised, so the alleged con-
fession continued, to burn it her
self.
Miss Mather now diSclaims knowl-
edge of this confession, although adj
hitting her signature. Her mind,
she says, was blank for several
weeks following the fire, when the
alleged confession is said to have
been made. She declares she has no
idea who set fire to the house. She
did not herself, she insists.
The case is wofully muddled.
Public opinion is equally so. Mrs.
Campbell Indignantly repudiates the
whole story

ing chilled, even to the serving of
hot soup at recess morning and af-
ternoon, and at the beginning and
close of the sessions on unusually
cold days. The teachers are COM
PEELED to clothe themselves accord
ingly.
Most of the pupils are children
who have been kept out of school
by illness. All have been under the
care of physicians. In almost every
instance marked improvement has
been noted. Mrs. Emma Appleton
is in charge of the school, and twice
a day DR.. Ellen Stone of the League
for the Suppression of tuberculosis
visits tn school, takes the tempera-
lures of the pupils, and keeps a
daily tab upon their condition.

CRIMINAL BLACKS DRIVEN NORTH

What the south has faced since
the reconstruction, the north will
have to face now" he declares. THE
south struck the nail on the head
when it adopted prohibition. 1t will
rid itself of the criminal blacks by
that action. But the problem will
not be solved; it will merely be
transferred to the north, where they
do not know how to handle it.
Il call upon the white people of
the north and especially upon the
negroes of the north to be prepared
to meet the problem like men, with
wit and brains, and no. with force"

order to have pair of the animals
ready for any occasion she has OBJ
tanned half a dozen of the finest
nags money could buy.
They are perfectly matched and

Cream colored horses are the fad

SUNSHINE FOR STOM-
ACH SUFFERERS.

It's great and good news, though not
altogether new theory, that the stom-
ach needs kind of sunshine to keep it
bright, sound and productive. But it
is sunshine of different form to that
which is radiated by the sun. This
sunshine is lubricant, corrector,
regulator, remedy of wrong conditions,
q therapeutic agent that causes stom-
ach troubles to disappear, and which
does away with most Of the serious
stomach suffering to which we are all
subject. The claims of this new stom-
ach proposition have been proven, tried
and tested, and the investigation has
shown that Prosene as sent out by the
Cooper Pharmacal Company of Chicago,
has become the most popular and effec-
tive of home remedies for the cure of
the stomach ills of every order. The
druggists dispense Prosene in this form
of prescription: Prosene Compound,
one ounce; Compound Tincture of Gin
chona, one ounce; Sherry Wine, half
pint. To be mixed either in the drug
store or at home. The most stomach
sufferers get exceedingly satisfactory
help in digesting their food and Kidding
themselves of annoying stomach troubles
by taking teaspoon dose of this ex-
cellent Prosene Prescription before
meals and at bedtime. Have Bell &
