Is Good.

Quite a swarm of elm beetles have
struck this section OF the city and are
playing the mischief with the foliage
of the shade trees. Yesterday after

coming out Of the ground by the hun

thoroughfare the withered leaves,
shrveled and dead, lie on the ground
The beetles seem to be at work earlier
than usual and 1t would seem that
this season they would sweep the trees
clean of foliage. Last summer a great
deal of damage was done. This beetle
seems to have come here to stay and
to have brought along his sisters, cous-

ANNA FAvoRs COUNTS COUSIN

Paris. Jan. 4.-The inside facts OF
fight which took place outside the
Church of st. Pierre de Chaillot be-
tween cousins. Prince Helie de Sagan
and Count Boni de Castellane. show
distinctly that Nine. Ansa Gould is
the bone OF contention. Although
Count Boni de Castellane has the sat
isfaction Of having whipped Prince de
Sagan publicly. De Sagan seemingly
has thereby gained an additional hold
on Nine. Anna. 1t was learned today
that De Sagan after having his wounds
dressed in police station. where he
WAS conducted, took cab. giving di.
rections to the coachman to drive to
his apartment, but charged these d.
rections while on the way and was
driven to Nine. Annals palatial house
In Avenue De Boulgne. The battered
prince left half an hour later accom-
panied by Nine. Gould and was taken
TO her doctor. Today the prince and
Anna are out driving together.

ETHEL TO WED, SAYS RuMoR.

Washington, Jan. 3.-Miss Ethel
Roosevelt, now the young lady Of
the White house." will be given a ball
tomorrow night by her father and
mother. and the members of Washing
tons younger social set are awaiting
the function with the greatest of i'm
patience. AS a matter of fact, the ball
will be Miss Ethel's informal coming
out party and will mark her debut in
the fashionable society of the national
capital. Dame Rumor has taken ad-
vantage of the occasion to roll under
her tongue many juicy morsels of gos-
sip concerning the presidents daugh-
ter and her alleged love affairs, and
many of the old dams aides are cir
culating stories to the effect that there
will be another wedding in the White
house before President Roosevelt
leaves. Charles Glover. son of bank
president, is most often mentioned as
the leading suitor for the hand and
heart Of the fair Miss Ethel. although
other wise ones insist that Captain
Mccoy, one of the presidents military
aides, is in the lead In this contest OF
the Lockinvers. The latter is said
to be a favorite with Mr.. Roosevelt,
who would welcome him as a son-in.
