Miss EVELYN May Converse.

business man. He went there from New
York and took hand in mining and
timber and made good. There is
sturdy New England stock in Miss
Converse, too-on her family tree is
the name Of Oliver Wendell Holmes.
It all happened just because Miss
Converse fell in love and played model
for her f1ance, painter prince-Eff1a.
toum Bey, son Of a Russian nobleman
and a French countess, who adopted
Egypt as their country, where Effla-
toum Pasha is one Of its foremost
men.
When she was 16 Miss Converse left
Eau Claire and went abroad with
some cousins to study. She stayed IN
Paris several years, studying French
| and music, and hoping that perhaps
some day she might go into grand
opera. Then she went to England,
ard at Cambridge she met Enatoum
Bey, who had been to the varsity
! there and roWed in one of The crews.
He had taken up painting-and he tell
] in love with Miss Converse.
They became engaged And what
! could be prettier on canvas than the
| fiancee's shell pink skin and her dusky
black hair and her eyes that are some
times black and sometimes blue and
sometimes gray? And those arms, SO
! exquisitely modelled!
Well, George Story, the artist, saw
! the throat and arms and shoulders at
a reception at the American en-
( bassy.
Just one sitting" he begged Of the
beautiful American girl, and when she
told her fiance Of this he said: 'Tps a
very great honor from such a painter
by all means pose for him"
They got along famously, and one
day Mr.. Story Ventured to suggest
that Mr.. Abbey might want her for
some Of his next pictures. Miss Con-
verse laughed merrily-the idea that
such an artist, one of the two Ameri-
cans in the Royal Academy, should
want to paint her!
why, there are plenty Of other
girls who viii do quite as WELL" she
went on, protesting.
And now we get to the point where
the pretty American girl was asked to
wear Queen Alexandra's coronation
robes. Miss Converse called on Mr..
Abbey. AS she tells it:
He smiled and just looked at me
hard, hard, for about minute. Then
he asked me If l would mind taking
OF my glove, that he might see my
hand. 1 said, Yes, I'll do it, and
then-why, he Just said that If my
arms were like that he'd most GER
tainly want me for a very important
picture he was painting.
"And that very day put on Queen
Alexandra's robes and he began ts
paint me in the picture"

the well poised neck, the stately, patri-

Evelyn Converse, an American girl
from Wisconsin at that, posed as
Queen Alexandra for Mr. Abbey's
great painting, The Coronation OF
Edward VII"
Miss Converse hasn't sat on the
royal throne, but she has worn the
coronation robes. She has never
been presented at court, but she has
come and gone at buckingham palace
as if born to the purple. She was
never proclaimed queen In Westmin-
ster, but there she is in the picture.
The king himself ordered the paint
ing to be hung on the walls Of Buck

on that august occasion faced Mr..
Abbey for their portions OF the pic

work was held up because there was
no suitable model in England.
For two years I've waited for
you," said Mr., Abbey when he
met Miss Converse. He knew he
had found the model he wanted-the
rest was only a matter Of course. Who
that could do it would refuse to pose
for her majesty, consort Of Edward
VII, and wear her robes and jewels;

EXPECT TO BUILD
BRIQUETTE PLANT

A plant for the manufacture of briqu-
cites, which will be used to produce an
thracoal, will be constructed in this dis
trict by the Standard Fuel company.
In statement issued yesterday Pres
ident Theodore Davis of the company says
the need of such plant is evident in this
district and that the plans for the plant
were we'll under way
The statement of Mr.. Davis follows;
Drawings and plans are we'll under
way for the building of a briquettins
plant, to briquette the soft coal products
In this district, and the Standard Fuel
company will erect a plant to produce
from 800 to 800 tons OF a manufactured
fuel called anthracoal being briauettes
that will in every way equal anthracite
coal.
"Anthracoal does not cost in its pr oduc-
ton any more than the cost Of producing
soft coal briquettes, yet in its value as a
fuel is equal to the price of anthracite
coal.
"Anthracoal in the burning is started
from the kindling like soft coal, yet will
burn fully three times as long as soft
coal and is smokeless. odorless. produces
no cinkers, cinders or SCOT, and burns to
the powdered ash, leaving as its ash only
the impurities of the coal. Most exhaust
i've tests have been made by expert coal
men, purchasers of coal for railroads. and
also experts from the United States
geological survey. who pronounce an
thracoal as extraordinary and wonderful
in results produced and they state that
anthracoal is equal and for many pur-
poses better than anthracite coal
mo tars or pitches are used In the
manufacture OF anthracoal, thereby elimi-
mating all smoky substances.
"This plant will be under the super
vision of we'll known coal operators In
this city and will be built so that it can
be enlarged by putting In extra com
pressing machines to Increase its produc-
| tton
