Beverly, Mass. Especially .-Presi-
dent Taft received in informal au-
dience Prince Kiniyoshi Kuni, grand
son of the Emperor of Japan, and
through him sent a message of. re-
gard and personal good will to his
distinguished grandfather. The
president was received most cordial
ly by the Emperor of Japan on the
occasion of his trip around the world

With Prince Kuni came his wife.

Is representing the government on
the staff of the Prince while he is in
this country.
The party was met at the Mont
serrat Station by Captain Butt. the
Presidents aid, and two White House
automobiles. The President had in
Vited a number of guests TO the cot
tage to meet the Prince and Princess.
During the ceremony the health OF
the Japanese Emperor was pledged,
and Prince Kuni, speaking through
Mr.. Matsui as interpreter, toasted
the President and the American peo-
pie.
President Taft's greeting to the
Prince and his party was most cor
dial. The exchange of courtesies be-
tween the distinguished visitor and
the Chief Magistrate were more or
less stilted, however, because of the
necessity of employing an interpre.
ter throughout. The President asked
after the health and well being OF
the Emperor and all of his family.
In return the Prince expressed the
sincere hope of the Emperor that the
! President and his family would be
| found in the best of health.
After the formal toasts had been
drunk the Prince and Princess and
their attendants sat down to tea with

A GirI'S Chance For Work In
New York.
BY ANNETTE AUSTIN.

MANY girls imagine that getting
a position in the business world to-
day is a matter of lucky chance. a
trick of good looks or the effect of a
mysterious pull with somebody
authority. At a matter of fact, pure.
uGadulterated capability is about the
only thing necessary to work the
charm, but IL is by far the rarest
product offered in the market by the
thousands of girls who are yearly
trying to break their way into indus
try in New York City.
1t certainly does not do merely to
ask for job in any vocation these
days. One has got to prove, by some
diplomatic stroke or otherwise, that
one Is better than most people for the
place. For instance, lawyer, who
had endured long and exasperat-
Ing string of Incompetent men stem
ographers was finally persuaded TO
try woman in the place: He was
plainly skeptical of the change.
Women were fiighty, he was assured,
and they did not have the proper
sense of business obligation in sub
ordinating all personal and social
claims to their office duties.
"A week after he had engaged a
young woman, however. he happened
to remark in her presence that he
would give anything to remember the
date of a clients last call.
1T was two weeks ago. on Thurs
day at 3 o'clock the girl answered.
and he came to see you about that
rebate matter in the Il and NJ" and
and II you will remember, he called
two days before that to ask your ad-
vice about selling the property in
New Haven to the New Haven and
Hartford; and on Saturday. three
weeks ago, to consult you about the
Symonds' deal
Good heavens!' exclaimed the
lawyer, utterly dumbfounded, how
do you remember all these dates and
details?'
1T is a part of my profession to
remember what goes on in the office
and keep a written record of it, an
nounced the girl proudly, and she
showed a drawer by the side of her
desk in which she kept diary, in
dexed, of the professional visits, tel
ephone calls, cases dispatched, and
in fact every detail of office routine
that transpired daily.
" 1T is too good to be true raved
the lawyer ecstatically. "A stenog-
rapher who thinks of her work as a
profession, and a girl who is willing
to do more than she is asked to do,
is beyond my experience in human
nature Needless to add, a man typ
list never again invaded that official
sanctum. and the girl who took her
work as a profession was advanced
year by year to a splendid salary. -

Marseilles Especially ).-The Duke
Of the Abruzzi was given an impress
sive reception on his arrival here
aboard the steamer Oceana. An
immense crowd had gathered at the
wharf to greet the distinguished ex-
plorer, about whom clings the popu-
lar idea that his trip to the Himala-
vas was the direct result of the rup-
ture of his romance with Miss Kath-
arine ElkinS
The Italian consul general, Count
Di Savoia, and the members of the
Marseilles Geographical Society and
representatives of the municipal au-
thorities went abroad the steamer to
present greetings to the Duke, who
first received Count Di Savoia alone.
From him he obtained a large pack
age of mail and he retired TO read
the letters. When he reappeared his
race was radiant and he spoke to
the deputation of visitors and with a
display of rare good spirits. The
Duke said that he was delighted with
his trip, and added:
L am sorry that / was not able
to complete all that l had planned,
but the results nevertheless were
satisfactory. / hold the record for

The Duke said that he had also
brought with him a scientific collec-
tion and a large number of photo
graphs. DR.. Phillppi, who had ac-
companied him TO the Himalayas. re-
mained behind to complete his bo-
tanical studies.
The Duke later received the cor
respondents, who Immediately ask
ed him about the reported discovery
or the Pole by DR.. Cook and Com
mander Peary. He replied: "I am
without precise information regard
ing this double polar expedition. and
l, therefore, can give no opin ION"
Beyond that he declined to be IN
terViewed, quickly checking the at
tempts of several American CORE
spondents to ascertain whether he
intended to so to Paris, where Miss
Elklns was known to he.
The Duke shortly afterward went
ashore with his aid, the MaruuiS dc
Negroto, and proceeded TO q hotel
where he lunched with Count di
Savoia.
