New York, April 27.-Mrs. Hetty

at the Hotel st. Regis as far az she
is concerned. Today when she was
ready to leave the hotel in which she
has lived in seclusion during the last
two weeks, she shooed away delega-

she succeeded in reaching the office
OF the hotel.
Her long black cape. which reached
to her heels, half concealed. half dis
closed the outlines of an old.fashion-

enough to hold a safe. Three red pa

her bill.

Hope in the eternal bellboys
breasts. they still tlocked around
Mrs. Green, eager to assist her In
leaving the hotel. She smiled through
her gray veil at the army of well wish
ers. but as she carried her handbag
in one hand and her umbrella in tbs
other she could not open her pocket
book.

Railroad men Of the city and local

freight cars on the divisions west of
Pittsburg. These cara are considered
Of an obsolete type and they will be

The repair accounts on the old
style cars are said to have prompted
the official order for their general rel

division shops have been gluttsd With
work of this character and the repairs
could be OF only temporary charac-

struction OF the cars made their use Of
little profit or safety.
Many Cars Destroyed.
Hundreds Of the cars that will b.
destroyed have been standing idle on
sidetracks. in abandoned gravel pitt

whether they will hold together for

Growth of school Gardens.

Not only in well known centers, but
in remoter localities. the school garden
movement is taking root, and this sug-
gests a satisfactory outcome, the re-
suit Of which will be not only the high
err culture of our future citizens, for
there is nothing like an understanding
and appreciation of nature to impart
this culture, but it may also lead to
a better distribution of our population.
Once impart to the child a love OF
flowers and field, and the city cannot
hold him unless it can give him a gar
den spot. Reports from the principals
and teachers where school gardening
is in vogue nav been most gratifying.
They declare that without exception
the influence of this work is refining
and uplifting. 1t brings teachers and
pupils into closer and more sympa-
thetic touch by their mutual love of
the beautiful.

A railroad train passing through Ala

suddenly rose to his feet, gun In hand
and incurred in a loud voice if there
WAS any member Of Roddy's regiment
on board.
No one answering, he repeated the
inquiry with an earnestness that de-
manded response, and Immediately a
little fellow at the other end OF the
car rose, and modestly acknowledged
himself a member Of the regiment.
That's all right, then" said the In
