WARNING TO GIRLS
 WHO SEEK BEAUTY

London, October 1.-(Special.)-A grave warning to girls who act as their own beauty specialists, is contained in case which has just come before the Binkenhead coroner. The subject of the inquest was a young girl named Mary Cadwallader, and it transpred that she had had an inordinate appetite for raw rice A doctor pointed out that many girls ate raw rice to improve the con- plexion, and said the rice eaten by the girl had a good deal to do with her death. The jury returned verdict of death from natural causes.
 A London physician explains that the habit of eating raw rice amongst work ing girls, and more particularly factory hands, was more widespread than is gen. erally believed They eat quantities of 1t to make themselves beautiful" They wanted nice white complexions, and the effect of eating raw rice was undoubt- edly to make them pale. But 1t made the pale by upsetting their stomachs and digestion generally. and giving them an- aomia. Others systematically drank hints of vinegar to obtain the same "beautiful' results, while some favored sucking lemons, eating pickles or raw eating was another form of the morbid habit. which the physician declares, is by no means of recent origin.

MAKES NOVEL EXCUSE
 FOR ALLEGED THEFT


 Paris, October 1-(Special.) )--A prison- or at one of the police courts charged with theft has just put forward a novel excuse for his action. It was alleged that he had attempted to steal a dummy and the dress shown upon 1t from a linen draper's shop. The prisoner, by name Francoise Brigaux. an electrician, tried to induce the magistrate to believe that 1t was all mistake. He had a glass or two, he said, and as it was past eight at night, his sight had got a bit blurred with the darkness.
 "Strolling along" he said, "I saw a mart girl, and when I got nearer, I recognized her. Hello, said to myself, here's Fifine,' and got Up on end. Fifine, I should explain, is my best girl. Hello, Fifne,' I said, what swells we are and got my arm round her waist. | lifted her off her feet, and was going to kiss her. I was just going to do so when I found it was not Fifine ait all, but a lay figure to show off dress. Just at that moment the shopman hap pened to look around and thought was making off with the dummy. He shouted Stop thief,' and I was run in.''
 Unfortunately for Francoise. the mag istrate pointed out that the lay figure had no hand, and Fffine. he trusted, had. His mistake was. therefore. discourteous to that lady, if for no other reason, and he must undergo three months imprison- ment.

WOMAN DESIRES
 POPE'S BENEDICTION


 Rome, October 1.--(Special. )-The ''Se- colo" reports a remarkable affair which occurred in the gardens of the Vatican this morning. The Pope was taking his morning walk in the grounds, accom- panied by M. Bressaud, and preceded. as usual, by a patrol of gendarmes. Suddenly one of the guards noticed what appeared to be someone moving among the trees a short distance away, appar- ently endeavoring to keep in hiding, and on investigation being made a young lady, barefooted and covered with con fusion, was found among the bushes.
 For a time she refused to answer the questions put to her, but eventually she replied with a few words In English, whereupon she was removed to the of fees of the gendarmes and interrogated at length It then appeared that the lady was an American, an enthusiastic member of the~Roman Catholic faith, who had eludcd the vigilence of the guards the previous evening and re- mained hidden in the Vatican grounds all night. in the hopes of confronting His Holiness during his morning walk, and obtaining benediction from him.
 The police will probably restore the lady to her friends without taking any official action in the matter, according to the ''Secole-"

This store has always made it practice to sell for

For $3.50 to $15 you get here hats that would
cost you from 50 to $50 in other stores. There is

Asks Revival of Lapsed Franchise
and Two Years More in Which
to Construct.

A bill designed to revive the lapsed
franchise Of the Anacostia, Surrattsville
and Brandywine Electric Railway Com
pany. and to allow the construction OF
the line within the next two years, has
been introduced in Congress by Senator
Rayner
The franchise to operate within the
District was granted to this line in 1905.
The construction work was to be begun
within one year and the road was to be lie
actual operation within two years after
the passage OF the act by Congress.
The requirements of the law were not
met within the time limit fixed. Senator
Rayner's bill proposes to ertend the term
for two years from the time the bill is
approved by Congress and the President.
The proposed route of the line, accord
ing to the act granting the franchise, is:
Beginning where the Walker road inter-
sects the line dividing the District of Co.
lumbia from Prince George county in
Maryland, thence along the Walker road
to Good Hope, d. C., thence along the
Good Hope road to its intersection with
Harrison street, Anacostia thence west
wardly along Harrison street to its inter-
section with Monroe street to a junction
with the Anacostia and Potomac River
railroad.
The new line is given authority to make
contracts to run its cars into the heart

Court Is authorized to fix the terms of
the agreement.

away India was heard from with an Off

the most potent influence of all was the
fact that deliveries on May contracts here
