her better. Certainly the character
of the quiet, capable, broad and
noble-hearted woman who Is the un-
fortunate wife of the weak Joseph

for she expresses the almost mate

Howard himself MS James Smith, the
friend Of the family, is unthinkable.
To the writer, James-or "Jimsy,"
as he is known-is one of the most
Iovable characters of present-day
drama. His self-effacing kindness,
pleasant humor-as easy as an old
shoe-ant somewhat sentimental
trend of mind are combined by the
playwright and the stage manager
into chap you want to know In
real life.
Guy Hltner has another important
role-that of Captain Williams, a
hard, rough, uncouth sort of per-

weak inefflciency, the role is well
done. Oliver ID. Bailey Is very good

Frenchmen Smoking Pipes.

Pipes are again in favor in Paris.
The high taxes on tobacco have been
their triumph. The pipe has invaded
the fashionable world, and the reason
for this, the Telegraph says. is the in
creased price of cigars, cigarettes and
all high grade tobacco. The sale of
the ordinary smoking tobacco for
pipes sold in fve-penny packages is
daily increasing. The dealers in pipes
are naturally delighted. Three times
more pipes are being sold than in any
previous year. The man who goes to
the seaside or the mountain resorts
takes a pipe with him. The pipe en-
ters into the preparations for the
shooting season, and even the college
students are good customers

Many Officers, From Commandment
Down, Have Been on Duty at
Washington for Years.

That the Marine corps faces certain
reorganization as the result of the pro-
nouncement by a court of inquiry that
spirit of INSTRUMENTATION reigns
throughout the service seems to be the
prevailing opinion of naval officers on
duty at the department. The serious
condition of the service was held to
be due primarily to too long terms of
service by officers without changes of
assignment. The question of reorgani-
cation probably will be considered this
week and radical changes may be
made.
The records of the officers concerned
in the recent inquiry show that Cen
eral Elliott, commandant, has been on
his present duty in Washington since
October 3, 1903; Col Charles H.
Lauchheimer, the adjutant and inspec-
tor at headquarters, since December
Il, 1904; Col Frank L. Denny, quar-
termaster, since June 81, 1897; Lieut.
Col. Thomas c. Prince, since July 10,
1905; Lieut.. Col Henry C. Haines, as
sistant adjutant, since May 80, 1908,
and Maj. David D. Porter, assistant
adjutant, since May IS, 1908

pivinino Rod 200 Years Old.

Winslow w. Fffeld of Medford,
Mass, owns a metallic divining rod
brought from England more than two
hundred years ago by one of his an

been used successfully all over New
England and in the western mining
districts. 1t is attached to whalebone
handles II inches long and weighs two
ounces. The handles have inscriptions
on them which are almost obliterated
by age.
The person who brought the rod to
America was Isaac Greenleaf, who set
tied in Massachusetts. The rod became
famous as finder of water. After
marking the place of many springs the
rod was used in California, Colorado
and North Carolina for locating by men

The Counterfeit southernsr.

Of course, there are many counter
feits. A most amusing imitation is
one that often passes for the typical

He wears a wide black hat, mounts
the table and yells whenever the band

Josiah HornbIower Brought One to
the Colonies in 1850, Married Miss
Elizabeth Kingland and Never
Returned to England.

This is story that goes back to a
quarter of century before the col

fore been in print 1t is a story
Vouched for by William B. Hornblow-
er, the nationally-noted lawyer, Who
but for the enmity of New Yorks

not be on the bench of the United
States Supreme court as an associate

The eighteenth century, it is one of
peculiar timeliness in this, the great
country and the great age of steam.
Meeting Mr.. Hornblower, | remarked
that some years before l had been
told by the late Abram S. Hewitt, one
of Nav York's famous mayors and for
years big voice in the national coun-
ellis Of the Democratic party, that he
had talked with an artisan who had
been employed by Mr. Hornblower's
great-grandfather in operating
steam engine in a copper mine in
New Jersey.
Yes, said Mr. Hornblower, my
great-grandfather did operate a steam
engine in New Jersey copper mine,
and the artisan Mr.. Hewitt talked with

Josiah Hornblower," contin led his

engine over under what c. uld be

wanting to drain their mine heard of
my great-grandfather's engine &nd en-
gagged him to bring it over, set it up
in their property, and give ins>"uction

when Grant gave way to Hayes, and,
after practising law for some time in

During his administration of the

Mark Twain was exceedingly par
ticular about money matters, always
insisting upon exacting, as a matter
of principle, all that was his due and,
on the other hand, being vigorously in
sistent on paying to the last cent
every dollar of his obligations. His
business correspondence frequently
contained facetious and highly humor-
Gus comments and if his literary ex-
ecutors can obtain any of these letters
it is probable that they will be able to
extract therefrom some highly char
acteristic Twain humor.

number of years before his death to
drop in occasionally and chat with for
