Il great admirer of her distinguished
brother. She took it that he meant her
brother who was "A physician and whom
the family and neighborhood thought u
paragon.

there is no doubt that your brother, the
doctor, is a very brilliant and able
man, l was referring to your other
brother-Thomas.
The woman's face took on look Of
disgust and scorn when she said: "Ah,

w. E. d. Stokes, jr., of New York,
president of the Junior Wireless club
of America, made a speech before the
United States senate last week 1t was
the first time. as far as anyone can re-
call, when boy in short trousers
grated before the dignilied body of law
makers.
Master Stokes turned to prophecy,
among other things. IF a man breaks
down i'm his automobile twenty-five
miles from home he said, looking
ahead ten years, "all he will have to
do is to take out his instrument and
call up his butler and tell him he will
not be home for dinner"
He told the senate a number Of real
live facts about telegraphing without
ii
of advice on the business i'm the United
States which the senate might do well
to think about. The bill up for hear
ing was the DepeW measure restricting
wireless operations in the interest of
government and maritime service.
Stokes was opposing the bill on the
ground that it proposed a discrimina-
tion against amateur wireless teleg-
rapners.
Otto Fl. Kahn, the most active of the
directors of the Metropolitan opera
company, says that both artistically
and financially the cause of grand
opera will improve next season in the
United States when one great organiza
ton, the greatest in the world, will give
opera. Opera lovers In general, despite
their regret at the passing of the pic
turesque Hammerstein, seem to agree
with him.
I'VE look for the greatest musical
season the country has ever seen," Mr..
Kahn said. Not only New York will
profit by it, but so also will the other
most important cities. The outlook is
splendid"
Which makes the noise, the clapper
or the bell? That's the question on
which Gen. Nelson Herrick Henry and
Collector William Loeb may test their
incisors. If Collector Loeb guesses
right, the surveyor of the port of New
York will sit at a large red desk and
bob into an erect position when the
buzzer is pressed by the collector And
If Gen. Henry apprehends the situation
correctly, there will be two buzzers-
and Mr. Loeb will pay Surveyor Henry
the same compliment that Henry pays
him. The actual Importance of the
surveyor of the port is to be defined
shortly after Gen. Henry takes his new
position.
Those who know Henry have
hunch that 1t will be just as import
ant as it used to be-or that Henry
will go to the mat with whoever gets
In his way Henry has never been
accused of failing to appreciate the re-
spcnslbility of any position to which
he has happened to be attached. Mr..
Loeb has a remarkably hard-headed
way at times. So. be seated and wait
for the mix.

w omen and What
They Are Doing

OLGA NETHERsOLE has had
poetry written to her. f. p.
" Adams in the New York Mail
has addressed the following beautiful
verses to her:
like little Olga,
Her plays warm,
And If / don't see en-
They'll do me no harm
My Puritan training
Has kept me from going
To dramas In which
Little Olga WAS showing.
But 1 like little Olga.
Her art Is 50 warmi
And If don't sec her
She'll do me 10 harm,
Miss Dearie McKeeVer sprang into
prominence on a fast horse. She is
Brooklyn girl and is one of the best
women drivers of fast horses in the
country. She has just accepted a chal-
lenge to drive her gray pacing mare,
Jotah, against DR.. J. Jones PAGER, Ell
wood d, for a wager of $500 The riV-
brush on the Brooklyn speedway. The
date for the match has not yet been
set.
Mrs. Adele Winckler, who is to be
married to George NJ. Schmidt, not
ed barrister of London, has been quite
successful with the pencil and brush,
School of Fine Arts, and later She
opened a studio in New York and then
in Paris. The Philadelphia Academy Of
Fine Arts accepted one Of her paint
ings Another was hung in the Paris
salon and received a medal from the
jury.
Rose Melville has many valuable
curios that she has gathered here and
there, but there is not any of them
that she prizes any more than a little
silver cross that was given her by a
Navajo Indian. Miss Melville, few
years ago, spent some time in the
Navajo country. One day, when riding
alone on a pony, some distance from a
Navajo village, she found a Navajo
boy, about years old, who had wan
dered from the village, and restored
him to his parents. This little runa-
way Navajo happened to be very much
loved by his father and mother, and by
his che-to-nah, too; and che-to-nah in
this particular tribe vernacular means
grandfather.
1t was a very grave and very CRATE
full che-to-nah who came to Miss Mel
vile when she was preparing to leave
the village, and holding out in his
withered hand a little cross hardly two
inches long that had been beaten out
of silver, he spoke to her in the tongue
of his tribe. When he had finished he
handed the cross of Miss Melville and
the interpreter told her what Ghetto
nah had said. HE says" repeated the
Interpreter in the monotone which is
peculiar to the race, that he wants
you to take this and keep it. and that
he prays to the spirits of his fathers
that it may bring you good fortune as
it has brought him good fortune. 1t
is very old" Is it any wonder that
Miss Melville values this little beaten
silver cross?
Anna Foy, a 15-year-old Newport,
r. l., girl, is fire wild. She had what
the papers call an abnormal twist of
psychological processes. In three days
she set three fires and terrorized the
household of George w. Ritchie. In
a. police investigation the girl said
that she was subject to nervous at
tacks, during which she experienced an
irresistible desire to set something
afire. In each case she applied the
match in broad daylight, and helped
to fight the blaze after the alarm had
been given.

Sometimes the aftermath of q bank
run is as interesting as the stampede
ITSELF said an Evansville, Ind, man at
the Lankershim yesterday. Il was in
pretty close touch with two affairs of
the kind in my home town several
years ago and had a good opportunity
TO see how foolish some people can be
over their money. one woman who
drew out $500 got on a trolley car with
a smile Of satisfaction which soon
changed to despair as she neared her
home and found that her pocket had
been picked and the whole sum taken.
Another depositOr, a man | knew well,
drew out about $1,000, and realizing that
it might not be safe to keep that sum
i'll d bureau drawer, picked out a nice
spot in his back yard to bury the
money, which act he performed, as he
thought, with proper secrecy. Some
body was looking, however, and when
be arose next morning and insttnctiVely
went to the back door to see if every
thing was right he found a new made
hole that robbers hadn't taken the
pains to fill up after subtracting his
$1,000. | saw another run on a bank
as solid as Gibraltar, caused by ru
NOR of mysterious origin, from which
the bank emerged with considerable
profit. Interest time was due in a few
days, but the panicky depositors forgot
everything else in their concern over
the principal, and the bank paid off
hundreds of depositors as fast as they
walked up, and saved thousands in
interest money that the people lost. If
