Genius and Misfortune.

Homer was a beggar; Plautus turned
a mill; Terence was q slave; Boetius
died in Jail; Paul Borghese had four
teen trades and yet starved with them
all; Tasso was often in distress for
s shillings; Bentivoglio was refused
admission into hospital he himself
had erected; Cervantes died Of hunger,
and Vagelas left his body to the physi-
clans to pay his debts so far as the
money would go; Sir Walter Raleigh
died on the scaffold; Spenser, the
charming, died in want; the death of
Collins was through neglect, first caus-
ing mental arrangement. Milton sold

three payments and finished his life In
obscurity; Dryden lived in poverty and
distress; Otway died in the street;
Steele lived life of perfect warfare
with the bailiffs; Goldsmith's "Vicar

Arms and the Woman.

did anybody ever see one armed
woman?" asked a gray headed man as
he surveyed the afternoon parade. II
never did. Almost every day meet
one armed men, but have yet to en-
counter q woman with that pitifully
empty sleeve. Are there no women
who have suffered that mutiladon ?
II not, why not? And, II 80. where are
they2
yesterday I heard it argued that
there was no cause for a woman to
lose an arm; that women do not 60 to
the wars and are not engaged In occu-
pations that are likely to carry away
part Of their body. But that rea-
soning is not sound. Many women
work in mills and factories, and they
are as liable to accidents in the streets
and public cOnveyances as men. Ere
Quently they figure in these accidents;
but, although men in the same situa.
ton would lose an arm, women never
do. r

4Ysilew a Favorits This Summer.
Yellow Is the popular summer shade.
It lis being worn in Newport and IN
Washington. Mrs. Arthur Scott Bur
den has been seen In Newport almost
exclusively in yellow, and her example
has been followed by many young
women who cannot hope to match her
in originality. In the capital, Mrs.
Knox, daughter in.law Of the secretary
of state, and Miss Helen Taft have
taken the lead In the fad for yellow.
Mrs. Knox has one unusually pretty
empire frock Of yellow embroidered
net over yellow. satin. Bows Of old
yellow, lace are on each shoulder, a
yellow lace sash Is worn and also
yellow satin slippers. A wreath Of
gold leaves gives the finishing touch.
Miss Taft's favorite combination Is
yellow lace over yellow silk. Almost
all the hats worn in the afternoon In
both Washington and Newport for the
last few weeks have had a touch Of
yellow, and many have had q full gel
low crown. sI,s'ssss .

Not content with issuing an in
junction against high rates on these
articles, the president specified that
hides must go on the free list and
the house rates on boots and shoes
and other manufacturers of leather
be reduced. Hosiery, too he thought
should be reduced below the house
rates which were advanced over the
Dingley duties.
It was not until after the demo-
cratic members had assembled that
the White House communication was
received at the conference chamber.
Hurriedly opening the envelope, Sen
ator Aldrich read the presidents
missive and called his republican as
sociates to an, adjoining room. The
contents Of the letter were discussed
at some length and 1t was decided
that the minority should be informed
that the conference report had not
advanced to a stage where it could
be submitted to them for their
judgment Senator Daniel and Rep
resentative Griggs exhibited some
annoyance at having been called into
session prematurely, but Bailey had
scented trouble for the majority and
advised his associates to go in
peace. ss;.$ ~ @l. ~..
The republican members continued
in session after the democrats left
the chamber. There followed one of
the busiest scenes witnessed about
the corridors Of the senate Office
building during the three weeks
there Of the conference. Hurrying

tors and members OF the house with

II Asst WEEK and the week
LII before we talked to you
- about the necessity Of
0 protecting your family
from the dirty Fly.
The screen window and door
on a house is necessary. The
screened porch is really not a
necessity, but more OF a luxury.
How much enjoymentyou would
get if your porch was screened;
a place you could go to those
hot summer evenings, after a
long day of hard work, and get
real solid comfort. Measure
your porch and come to our
Office next time you are passing
and we will tell you exactly
what it will cost; it is not ex-
pensive, you will wonder why
you did not do it before.

Attraction,

Fruits fall to the earth because the
earth attracts them. Bubbles In q cup
Of tea stand around the sides Of the
cup because the cup attracts them.
The little bubbles gather about the
large ones because the large bubbles
attract the smaller ones. Why do the
bubbles follow a teaspoon Because
the spoon attracts them. Why are the
sides Of a pond covered with leaves,
while the middle Is clsarf Because the
shore attracts the leaves to itself.

his attorney in Justice Mills ante
room, going over the multitude of
records used today by Mr.. Jerome in
his rapid fire of cross-examination
questions. The district attorney con-
scented to this but left one Of his
deputies to guarantee the evidence
| which he said belonged to the rec
ords of his Office.
On the whole, however, Thaw and
his attorney are we'll satisfied with
the days work Thaw showed even
more confidence than he exhibited
during his first encounter; in fact,
his dissatisfaction at one time al
most cost him dear when he ventur-
ed into a heated passage at arms
with the district attorney. But he
checked himself when he realized
that he had nothing to gain and
everything to lose by show Of tenn
per- Except for this squall, the ex-
change of questions and arguments
with here and there an occasional
sally of witness, Progressed smooth
ly from lis until adjournment.
Yesterday Mr.. Jerome devoted
himself to the prisoners life history.
Today he based his questions care
fully upon various documents, let
tiers and memoranda, which he pro-
duced in surprising numbers. The
one he found most useful was tab
let containing twenty-six sheets of
foolscap paper on witch were pasted
strange variety of newspaper clip
pings and scraps Of manuscript.
Thaw identified it as something he
had prepared and sent to Dolphin M.
Delmas, his confidential counsel dur
ing the first trial, for use in prepar-
ing his closing speech to the grand
jury. Some of it's contents were
strange enough to cause suspicious
of the authors sanity, but these bits
Thaw invariably explained by saying
they were letters written to him and
his family by persons whose kind
intentions probably were better than
their mental balance.
| Lots of it was rubbish" he added
But some of the letters contained
ideas I thought Mr.. Delmas might
use"
Thaw's part of the compilation
showed him as a man of many tastes
and interests. In it he quoted pas
sages Of scripture regarding sins
against the young and referred to
the dragon tales in Percye Reliques
for SMILES regarding Stanford White
He culled from his voluminOus cor
respondence the most striking ex-
pressions that might be put to the
same use.
While Thaw was the central figure
at the hearing today there were two
other witnesses, Susan Merrill, the
former New York lodging house
keeper and Clifford w. Hartridge,
Thaw's former attorney. Mrs. Mer-
rill went further into details re-
garding TKaw's alleged abuse of
young women at her house. She ad-
mitted having had dealings also with
Stanford White. Hartridge testi-
fed to the truth of parts of her
story. He said that the money he
turned over to the woman, which she
said was used to prevent the girls
Thaw whipped from making trouble,
did not come from Thaw himself.
He said he had received 100000
from Mrs. VIM. 'Thaw, but had used
a large part of it for. various pur-
poses connected with mis- employment
by the family"
