worked without excitement and
without fatigue" Nothing struck
the Italian newspaper man so wildly
as tAe generous activity" of these
men and women. Their prompt
ness" and the simplicity of heart
and sympathy with which their SER
vices were rendered are recorded
in terms of sincere gratitude.
Nor were the observers less af-
fected by the activity of Ambassador
Griscom, whose intelligent energy
was magnihcently effective" Mr..
Griscom, we are told, was enabled to
cruise for seven days along the
coast of Calabria and Sicily. HE
represented the keen desire of the
United States to exhibit sympathy
in that hour OF overwhelming calam-
ity." The Tribuna declares:
MFR Griscom was the very soul and
ruling spirit of the committee of sue
cor, and to him was principally due
the self-sacrificing promptness which
brought comfort and assistance to
points of that scene of desolation
where they were least expected. His
sole aim during the eight days of his
cruise and land travels was to find
out the spots where the needs Of the
sufferers were most urgent and their
necessities most vital. On the eve of
his departure we bade his ship fare
well with deep emotion. That ship

relations with Mr.. Roosevelt and with MIR.

PHYLANDER CHASE KNOX, SECRETARY OF STATE

In a cabinet made up mostly of lawyers,
Philander Chase Knox, secretary of state,
is the head lawyer in President Tafts
cabinet.
Mr.. Knox is first and all the time a
lawyer. 1t was his ambition to be law
yer when he was years old. The local
member of congress in Brownsville, Pa,
where he was brought up, patted him on
the head and asked him what he wished
TO be. "A lawyer" replied the boy.
So, when he got through Ohio-Wesleyan
university he worked in drug store long
enough to get money to go to Pittsburg.
There he entered the law Office of H. Is.
Swope and in 1875 was admitted to the
bar.
His trend was to the private practice Of
Jaw, and the only public Office he ever
held, between this time and his entrance
into the Mckinley cabinet in 1901, was
when he was assistant United States dis
trict attorney for the western district Of
Pennsylvania, in 1876.
The original suggestion Of Mr.. Knox
for attorney general aroused some unfav-
orable comment. 1t was recalled that
he had been employed by Messrs. Prick
and Carnegie, of the steel trust and had
advised with them during their famous
fight on union labor at the Homestead
works. This opposition, however, was
overcome, and the service begun by Mr..
Knox in the Mckinley cabinet was con-
tinued when Theodore Roosevelt succeed
ed to that Office.
Under Roosevelt Mr.. Knox was the
pioneer prosecutor of combinations in re-
straint of trade. He brought actions
against the beef trust, the Standard OH
company, the paper trust and the com
bination of northwestern railroads, known
as the Northern Securities company. In

THE CABRIOLET COMPETITION
Mere man cannot wei avoid q
more or less intimate study of the
changes of fashion, and in the mat
ter of headgear-to employ a crimi
nal jeu de mot--he cannot overloob
| it. m
There may have been a time
since the natural ''crown of glory
was the millinery confection of ouI
foremother, when the fashion in
bonnets made more rapid and more
violent changes than during the past
few years of grace, but if so, recol'
lection fails us, and now comes the
climax in the "cabriolet," which
compares favorably with the hang
ing garden of Babylon.
That agglomeration of fruits and
flowers, it will be remembered, was
constructed to please a woman, but
the architect was king of high de-
gree who could afford it.
an entire garden, but it is an
anthology, made up of gardenias
and grapes and violets and carrots
and roses and rutabagas.
To say that it looks like a basket
filled with tue products of the
orchard and the conservatory would
not be humorous, for that is con
sciously and purposely the effect
which the mllliner-artists have
sought.
1t offers infinite opportunities fol-
their skill, for one of the rules OF
the game, apparently, is to see how
many different varieties of these
fruits and flowers can be crowded
into and around one of these in
verted baskets.
The skill in this direction has
already been marvelousi
The Audubon society is delighted
and is lending hearty encourage
ment to the use of fruits and flowers
and vegetables, which do not have to
be killed or subjected to slow agony
before they reach the RANT Young
Person by way of the taxidermist.
Moreover, the new CONNECTION
ought to be cheaper than the furred
and feathered variety Carrots are
cheaper than birds of paradise, and
willow plumes make husbands
weep.
But experts tell us that such is
not the case. The price of the raw
material seems to cut very little
figure.
At all events the new cabriolet is
here, in all it's glory of fruit and
blossom. The flare is not quite sc
great as that of the Merry Widow
or the mushroom, so there is less
obstruction to traffic, but it is as
difficult as ever to--see the face OF
the preacher.
We laughed at the pill box and
scoffed at the toque, but verify we
did not know when we were well
on.
