such a state that it was just a large

were terrible. doctored with an able

HERE GOES ANOTHER ILLUSION.
"Fiddiing Bob" Declares He Has Not
Played for Many Years.

Another cherished illusion has been
shattered. Senator Taylor of Tennes-

union "Ffddling Bob" doesn't play the
fiddle after all He has entered for
NAL denial Pretty soon somebody will
be saying that Congressman Rich
mond Pearson Lobson Of Merrimac

Hughes Of New Jersey asked Senator
Taylor about his musical accomplish

ventured Hughes.

1t is not wide of the mark probably,
to say that the Deweys stayed in the
Rhode Island home for a much longer
time than they wanted to stay Time
dulls the edge of criticism and makes
people forget, and so the Deweys, not
long ago. quietly left the house on the
avenue to take up residence in the
great dwelling at Sixteenth and X
streets, where Mrs. Dewey resided
when she was Mrs. Hazen, and from
which Admiral Dewey took her to
church to make her his wife.
Admiral Dewey is the ranking Of
ficer of the navy and as a full admiral
he has a right which belongs to no
other man Of either service, the right
TO remain on the active list until he
sees fit to retire. From his rank it is
expected, and therefore practically
necessary, that when the admiral
gives an entertainment it shall be a
large one. 1t is only fair to say that
the Rhode Island avenue house which
was given him by the people was al
together too small for large gather
ings.
The old HaZen residence into which
the admiral and his wife have moved
affords space enough for most elab-
crate entertainments. A series of din
ners already has been announced.

Among the scores of admirers who
besieged the Won Haake home was
Pritchard, then II years old. His ath-
letic figure, more than six feet two
inches in height, was notable even
among the Washington crowds, where
there are so many big, erect men. He
was then in his second year at An
napolis, having been appointed by
Congressman Oyerstreet of Indiana
His home was IN Indianapolis.
Every time Pritchard obtained leave
of absence he ran down to Washing
ton. Every time the Annapolis crew
raced-the big MILDLY rowed at nun.
Der three-Miss Won Haake waved her
blue flag and cheered.
A year and half ago young Cath
cart met Miss Won Haake in Phila-
delphia. He was then a student in the
University of Pennsylvania. He took
a small part in athletics, too, but he
is by no means the striking figure Prit-
chard is.
Cathcart is reticent, reserved
young man. He was then about %
years old.
Pretty Miss Won Haake and Cath
cart were married last June in New
burgh on the Hudson, the bridegroom S
home. Within a month the couple
quarreled, but peace was made. In
September Cathcart and his bride
visited Philadelphia. The husband left
the bride at the railway station while
he went to look after baggage. When
he returned she was gone.
