FLIRTING FOR RECREATION.
Harvard Professor Says 1t Gives Proper
knowledge of Social Life.

Professor George Herbert Palmer of
Harvard university, twice married and
reported to be contemplating a third
venture in matrimony. has come forth
with the pronunciamento that little
firting-properly conducted, Of course
is not only advisable, but even i'm
perative, for the average college boy
and girl.
Flirting is the surest road toward
the proper knowledge Of social life, de-
clares the professor, who has the dis
tinction Of being the oldest member of
the Harvard faculty and whose sec
ond wife, Alice Freeman Palmer, was
president of Wellesley college from
1881 to 1887.
II think the girls Of Radcliffe and
the boys of Harvard devote too much
of their time to study" says Professor
Palmer. ''They should mingle a little
frivolity with their studies. In other
words, they should flirt a little.
II am reminded of girl graduate of

-"Of course it makes a good deal of
difference who does the flirting, where
and with whom. The time, the place
and the boy and girl have a good deal
to do with it. If all could see the
tired out boys and girls that l see all
would, l know, admit that little bit
of flirting now and then is real recrea-
ton. Mix things up bit, sprinkle little
flirting into the studies One can have
little of both and still come out all
right at the end"

STORIES OF 1-Bossv DURHAM.
Incident That illustrated 4 Phase Of
Famous Politicians Character.

Incident That illustrated q Phase Of
Famous Politicians Character.
Israel w Durham, state senator
from the Second Philadelphia district
and former Republican boss of Phila-
delphia, who died suddenly at his At
lantic City cottage the other after
noon, was one of the most powerful
leaders in the Republican organiza-
ton.
Durham was a born leader of men.
While reformers always charged him
with resorting to all the hidden trick
cry of politics, his personality was
magnetic, and it was this that seemed
to bind his host of followers to him
he had the reputation of never having
broken promise once his word was
given. He was man Of few words,
but newspaper reporters placed abso.
lutte reliance on what he said when
he consented to talk at all.
A little incident which occurred 8
few years ago will illustrate q phase
Accompanied by James A. Camppell
Mr.. Durham was on his way to the
ferry to go to Atlantic City. AS they
were about to board street car they
were stopped by Thomas Blynn, then
a political reporter, who asked Mr.
Durham the truth Of certain report
current that day. "That is not so,
said Durham There is nothing in
it, Then he and Campbell took the
car.
AS they rode along Durham was
very quiet and thoughtful, and as they
approached the ferry he turned te
Campbell and said: Jim, / lied tc
Blynn, and it worries me- 1 never be
fore lied to a reporter. When l did
not want to tell them anything l al
ways said had nothing to say. We
can get another train an hour later
I'll wait at the ferry for you. Go and
find Blynn and straighten that thing
OUT
And Durham. who was then q state
senator, waited in the ferryhouse till
Campbell came back and reported that
he had found Blynn and set him right
Once Mr.. Durham, strolling with 9
friend along the board walk at Allan
tic City, passed an oriental goods
store, where exquisite vases were dis
played with price marks beyond the
reach of any one but a millionaire
The friend remarked, "Iz, how would
you like to be rich enough to buy
those yases?"
IF l were 1 would not buy them,'
replied Durham. I'D have more
pleasure giving the money away" He
was generous to fault, and appar-
emily the most pleasure he got from
money was by giving it away. He
had been in many very profitable en-
terprises, but he was not regarded as
exceedingly rich.

Drowned Celestial in the Hudson Rlv-
er is Thought to be the Body
Of Much Wanted Leon
Ling.
CANNOT BE IDENTIFIED
TaIIies With the Description Almost
Exactly With the Exception
Of Bald Spot on
the Head.

NEW YORK, July 2.-The police
are trying today to positively identify
the body of a Chinese found in the
Hudson river last night. Coroner Nc
Daniels and Police Captain Ward are
certain that 1t is Leon Ling. The body
confirms In almost every detail to
the description of Leon, except for
bald spot on the left side of the head.
The coroner explains that this might
have been caused by the body scrap
ing the rocks.
After exerting every effort to ident-
ify the body found in the Hudson, sup
posed to be Leon Ling, the police to-
day failed to definitely prove that 1t
is Ling. Several men knowing Leon
are positive it is. The condition OF
the body precludes a positive identi-
fication of the features. DR.. Curtin,
physician for the coroner says it ap-
peared that the body might be that
of fifteen year old white boy, the
complexion being too liglt for a
Chinaman. Coroner Mcdonald is sure
it is Leon An autopsy performed
showed the body had been dead for a
week, and died form strangulation
evidently from drowning. Detectives
are rounding up Leon's friends to
make sure whether the body is that
of Leon. Edward Burn, a reporter for
Yonkers newspaper, who knew Leon
has identified the body. He said there
is no doubt that 1t is Leon.
