MRS. MELISSA HENRY.
BY w. G. SHEPHERD.

BROOKFIELD, N. Y, July A.
Three really genuine daughters Of
the American revolution are having
about the safest and sanest Fourth
today that one could imagine. They
are Mrs. Phoebe Wooley Palmeter
of Brookfield and Mrs. Esther Ann
Shepardson and Mrs. Lydia Melissa
Henry of Poolville, both little up
state" villages Of central New York.
Though intensely patriotic, for their
fathers fought in the long war that
made us free and independent, they
deplore the tendency Of the present
generation to max the Fourth day
of nois and sport, forgetting almost
entirely the patriotic side of the
celebration.
Mrs. Palimeter. now aged and too
feeble to leave her bed, takes the
greatest possible pleasure in telling
over and over again on the Fourth
the events of that terrible war as
told her by her father. To her
children and grandchildren, who
gather about her today, she delights
to tell of the soldier boy who fol-
lowed Eethan Allen at TicOnderOga.

more and more advocates for high

interview. The beginning of the
movement may be counted from
1871, when a number of young girls
were sent to the United States and

higher learning. OF these girls, one

Oyama, and another the wife OF
Admiral Uriu Miss Yasui, who

THE HOUR OF GRACE
BY Harold Carter.

During my year in office as the
cars chief of detectives | frus-
trated nine separate plots" said
Casimir Boutcheff. But my
nerves broke down and | had to
resign my post. Imagine nine des-
perate men, each reckless of his
life, each bent upon wiping out
his ruler in the most devilish and
ingenious ways, and you can i'm
agine something of my own diff
culties.
THE ninth, the anarchist Stro-
gOff, was the immediate cause of
my resigning. Nothing but the
slightest oversight, the most prov
idential forgetfullness of single
natural phenomenon, frustrated
this last attempt. He was the man
who was blown to pieces in the
kings gardens, Copenhagen. by
some mysterious and never under
stood agency"
THE man who succeeded in
obtaining post as assistant in
the King Of Denmark's kitchen?"
asked the interrogation.
Precisely" replied Boutcheff
smiling. LAS you know, the car
was. formerly very found of Wis
iting his august relative at Copen-
hagan. There he felt free from
the constant nervous tension in
duced by the presence of those
who wished his death. Here he
would picnic in the royal gardens,
secure in the knowledge that no
anarchist could penetrate past the
sentinels.
Yes, Strogoff managed to
pierce the circle of sentries, for
he was one of the men detailed to
open the royal picnic hamper, and
none suspected his evil purpose.
But even so. was there. disguised

ENFORCING THE
CURFEW ORDINANCE

Right now Chief Sullivan's force
of bluecoats, ON orders from the
chief. are trying to make show
ing by enforcing the curfew ordin-
ance No. A4344. The curfew or
dinance is backed by the moral
welfare committee" appointed by
Mayor Pratt, of which Chief Sulli-
van is member.
The ordinance forbids children of
16 lettering on the streets at this
season of the year after $3.50 p. m.
The penalty is the reporting of
such conduct to the juvenile court
officers. An exception is made
where children are in care of their
parents or persons authorized to
