MAUDE ADAMS FARM IS
A PICTURESQUE RETREAT

tural beauty e~Xteriorly as any other
American basement brownstone front
house in that staid m eminently re-
spectacle part of the city. But if the
house is dull looking without, ii is not
within. Few dwellings in New York
are furnished more beautifully or ar
tistically. The actress has one great
passion-antiques. Rare bits of furni-
ture, art gems of olden days that she
has picked up here and abroad; Won
ders of the goldsmith's f~ashionings,
candlesticks that are priceless and spin
ming wheels and spinets at which
dainty ladies of centuries ago spent
many hours, delight those who really
are appreciative.
The bed chamber of Maude Adams is
a good eal like that OF q clustered
nun. Everything is of the simplest and
everything is spotlessly white. The
bed is a little single iron affair, like
that used in converts, and the other
furnishings are of the plainest char
acter. The only articles that depart
from the general tone are the few per-
sonal mementos that the actress treas
ures. Most exquisite and most treas
ured of these is a lazuli given to her
by j. M. Barrie with her monogram in
diamonds n encrusted with rubies,
pearls and sapphires.

which she has built recently, and which
now is her holy of holes. Here she
has her meals served and here she does
her reading. Every day a florist visits
this room. The walls are trellised and
flowers are everywhere. Winter and
summer the same temperature is main
tanned in this room, and winter and
summer the roses, violets and other
flowers bloom.
Women Of the stage usually are TX
tremists in matters of dress. She Is not.
She dresses simply but in perfect taste.
She pays a lot of money for clothes.
Every garment that Is made for her for
the stage is made in duplicate, so hat
there may be little trouble in case of
accident or disaster.
There Is nothing theatrical about
Maude Adams. A thousand persons
might meet ner in the street and not
n would think of her as an actress.
She rarely walks about. To and from
the theater she always travels in a
cab. She Is intensely American. Every
thing she wears must be Of American
make. Never did she wear hat or
gown made in Paris. She would rather
have the applause and the love OF
children h OF grownups.
Strange m Those who know
her best say she Is Peter Pan to the
life, a child that never grew up. When
she goes abroad she lives in a conven
near Paris. That h is a woman OF
high ideals and tries to live up to
them there Is no doubt. While not q
Roman Catholic she goes to mass.

A woman has just been made a judge
in Denmark and the Danish women are
boasting hat it is the first time in
the history of the world hat such an
office has been given to a woman. The
suffragists Of the United States reply
by pointing to Mrs. Esther Morris, Of
Wyoming; Mrs. Catherine Waugh Nc
Culloch, of Illinois, and Mrs. Mary
Cooper, Of Kansas. The Jewish wom-
en- add to this list deborah, the wife
of Lapidoth, who not only judged the
people of Israel for 40 years, but led
their forces to battle because the gen.
eral refused to go without her.

that meet the eye at every turn.
The signs look formidable and for
bidding. but they are a never-ending
source of enjoyment to the chatelaine
OF the bijou farm. She is not there
often-a dozen or so times "a wear mar
haps-and when she comes il is by spe-
cha train from New York, late, very
late Saturday night, and she always
leaves early on Monday evening, an
other special train taking her back to
the city. When she walks about her
bijou farm she never fails to look up
ct those imposing signs and smile, for
they are big and positive, and she is
little and demure. 1t delights her to
think that the person reading those
signs would imagine NJ. T.. A.. K. to be
a great doublefisted. dogmatic man and
not the shy gentle woman whom the
world knows as Maude Adams, but
whose real name is Maude Ewell
Adams Kiskadden.
This Ronkonkomo farm gives a fair
index to the character OF daude Adams.
No woman of the stage eve was more
shy of publicity. No woman of the
stage ever had q larger or more de-
voted following, No woman of the
stage was ever more beloved by the
public at large and yet so little known.
She is not a great actress-America has
had a good many women of more abil-
ity IL less charm or magnetism-but
there certainly never was one who made
so great an appeal TO women and hill
dren or who knew 30 well the heart Of
a man.
The Ronkonkomo farm is only one Of
her three homes. Up in the Catskills,
near Onteora Park. In a cottage on the
mountain side, she has a retreat that Is
hidden In the forest treetops. There she
goes to study her part when n new
play Is TO he produced, and there she
goes by special train OF Saturday night
and returns on Monday evening when
she is playing In New York and the
weather is hot. Her city home is at %

From the Saturday Evening Post.
A traveller in Arkansas came TO a cabin
and heard a terrifying series OF groans
and yells. II f-nded as II murder was
being committed.
He rushed In and found a gigantic ne
gro woman beating a wizened little old
man with a club while he cried for mercy.
Here, womanl'' shouted the traveller,
what do you mean by beating that
man?"
he's NAH husban'. and I'll beat him

a few more cracks by way of emphasis.

HIT HIS HEAD
SHOT FIRED AT KAKAAKO GENT
STRIKES AN INVULNERABLE
PART OF HIS ANATOMY.

There was a first CLASS niger rae
ket near the corner of Liliha and Vine
yard streets about 10:30 this morning
as a result of which Edward Parker,
of KakaakO, is in the hospital, and
Emory Harris, formerly barber of the
Iroquois and leader of Darktowns ar
istocracy, is in the lookup to await
the fate of his victim.
The shooting was the elimination,
or final chapter, of an old feud having
numerous ramiflcations and with which
many of the negroes of Honolulu have
had to do. When the quarrel was re-
newed this morning Harris claims
that Parker rushed upon him with a
knife. He fired first at his assailant' s
legs, the ball taking effect in the right
leg above the foot The second shot
took effect in the right of the head.
The police took Parker to the Queens
hospital and Harris to the police sta
ton
Harris was born in Virginia. reared
in Illinois and came here from San
francisco, shipping on the Iroquois as
barber. Last year he was mixed up
in a number of rackets; was put in
the naval birg, and was sent
to the reef for sixty Gays. Although
his time was not out in the navy he
was paid off and discharged. Lately
he has been working at Leilehua. his
immediate chief being Lieutenant Phil
Sheridan. This morning Harris tele-
phoned to Sheridan for reinforcements.
but, although General Sheridan rode
the famous twenty miles from Win
chester to save the day, the police
think it unlikely that his son will ride
the twenty-five from Leilehua in this
emergency.
Parker claims to be native of Cali
1ornla. He has had to do with horses
and was, until a few weeks ago =
leader in baseball affairs around At
klnson park. Last year he had a fight
down there with Castro, the telephone
slugger," and went to jail but the case
was dropped on appeal. The fight this
morning took place at the house in
which John Nash and his wife, who
are Rarktown celebrities, live. The
woman who figured in Harris former
troubles was present.
The second shot fired at Parker for
tunately hit him in the head and CLAN
ced off. Had it struck a vulnerable
part OF the body the case would un-
doubtedly have been one of murder
The pistol used was 80 calibre. AT
the hospital this afternoon it is stated
that Parker is not dangerously wound
