Mrs. Newberry,s Fine Home.


Mrs. Truman Newberry has many
times been described as one of the
most attractive womenEin Washington
society. Though the term is frequent
ly used, it seldom has the significance
which it possesses in this case. She
has been. abundantly favored by fate
and perhaps the fact that she is a per-
fectly happy woman has been added
to natural amiability. Her home is

Prophecies OF Big Ben.
Big Ben has been stopped three
times by snow freezing on the hands
and jamming them. A curious episode
in its history took place in December,
1851, just before the prince consort
died, when, owing to the failure Of an
experimental piece of apparatus, the
clock struck hundred or more
strokes without stopping. People who
were unaware of the cause saw in the
occurrence an omen Of the great loss
which shortly afterward befell the ma
ton. Another sensational prank was

suitable for street wear.
