months ago he seemed to become
quite reckless all of a sudden. He
phoned out to me one evening that he
wouldn't be home to dinner because
he had business to attend to. He didn't
get home till near midnight. and then
he was quite exalted, you know, my
dear. and talked In that fiouery way men
have when they've been drinking. He
was altogether too affectionate and things
TO be agreeable and then OF a sudden.
when reproached him little, he turned
sullen and growly and mean. and he dared
to tell me that he'd enjoyed himself more
that evening with his old bachelor pals
than he'd enjoyed himself since he'd been
married

TT may be of interest to the average
reader TO know that William Wolfe
Smith, who long has adorned and IL
lumined these parts. got grand and
glorious scoop on that big story of Sen
ator Knoxs ineligibility to the Secretary
ship of State. Mr.. Smith had to take
three days off to properly receive the
warm congratulations of his friends for
having pulled off this newspaper stunt.
But
4 couple of days after the congratu-
lations had all been entered in the ledger
it came out-from Poker Bill himself

anybody. be 1t on himself or some one
else-that he had written the beautiful
story in question as part Of a mail let
ter. just as dope. just as filler and had
then inclosed 1t in an ordinary envelope
and mailed it.
OF course as soon as the Buffalo pa per
printed the story it was wired out to
every city. town, village and hamlet in
the United States. And now William
Wolfe Smith is wondering whether a
paper out west to which he also mailed
the story at the same time. but which
hadn't received it when it came out in
Buffalo. is going to fire him because he
was scooped.

COMBINATIONS are In the air. A few
~ days ago a woman who runs several
fashionable boarding houses in New York
issued call, through the newspapers, for
a meeting Of boarding house keepers The
call was for the purpose of effecting an
organization. Somebody went to see the
boarding house mistress and asked her
about 1t. Her story was straight and
plain enough.
She said that she wasn't making any
money any more. and that none of the
boarding house keepers are making any
money these days, and she desired the
boarding house keepers to get together for
the purpose of effecting an organization
to raise the rates on boarding house
guests. She said that the prices Of things
to eat had risen SO abnOrmally and out
rageously during the past few years that
whatever profit there ever was in the
business of running a boarding house had
been wiped out. And yet she went on,
the guests of boarding houses. knowing
full well that everything eatable had
doubled and sometimes more than doubled
in price, refused to come across for ad-
ditional weekly board money when re-
quested to do So She said that she tried
to raise the rates at her boarding houses
in order to meet the advancing prices. but
that the guests had kicked and kicked
and kicked against the tariffs she had
submitted to them and some of them had
moved to other boarding houses.
Now. she says. she wants to have the
boarding house keepers organize to estab-
lish an increased standard set Of rates.
She said she had had hundreds of re-
sponses to her call. that the meeting is
going to be held some time within the
next two weeks and that the prices for
board and room in New York unquestion-
ably would be advanced and sZeably ad-
vanced, just as soon the boarding
house keepers organization got down to
business and the consideration of ways
and means.
