May Yohe.

choir dreamed that her actions, sem
sational and unwomanly, would at one
time engage the attention of virtually
the entire world
When she was very, very young
that is young from the point of view
of ordinary, normal mortals-May was
taken to New York-city of her
dreams-to "go on the stage" She
made a tremendous hit in New York.
and duplicated it in London Society
docked to hear her sing and play
boys parts-a favorite role She was
pronounced by all to be Stunning"
At the hight Of her success she met
Lord Francis Hope. He became IN
fauated in twinkling. His mother,
the Duchess of Newcastle, had left
him a large fortune, and he stood to
inherit the dukedom should his elder
brother, the Duke of Newcastle, die
without son. Young Lord Francis
spent thousands of dollars in financing
May Yohe in new plays, and showered
more than $4,000 worth of jewels
upon her. Finally he proposed mar
riage, and was accepted They were
married in 1893 The Hope family
was furious, but Lord Francis de-
clared it was his own affair and that
he would brook no interference.
May Yohe had bSen Lady Francis
Hope for seven years. Meanwhile
Putnam Bradlee Strong, son of former
Mayor William Strong, Of New York,
returned from the Philippines where
he served in the gallant Sixty-ninth
New York Regiment. Lady Francis
Hope was in San Francisco, still on
the stage and at the height of her
beauty. Lord Hope had gone back to
England. Captain Strong and Lady
Francis met.
The boy captain was smitten with
the charms Of the actress. They were
seen together everywhere. Then came
a scandal that shocked two continents.
May Yohe flung everything to the
wind-her title, position on the STAGE
her career, her husband. She ram
away with Strong. AS for Strong, his
sacrifice was as great. He lost bis
social position, the affection Of his
family, and had to give up his COM
mission Ill Inc ARMY. III Inc u6du~
time, Lord Francis procured divorce,
and Capt. Strong married May Yohe.
Strong afterwards left her and for
some years she dropped out of public
notice and it was only recently that
the news went abroad from San Fran
cisco that May Yohe was singing fR
10-cent vaudeville houses. When last
heard from Strong was running a
gambling house in Macoa, China.
From lowly origin to the nights OF
artistocratic society circles and mon
eyed ease-and then fall step by
step until the bottom rung Of the lad
der was reached. That is the story
of the life of May Yohe, now waiting
quietly for death in the Frisco hos
pital.

DoGFIsH ARE GOOD TO EAT
Ocean Variety Pronounced by Fish
Commission Experts TO Be Near

eat, just as good served as "dogfsh"
as they are labeled in cafes as ocean
whitefsh," sea bass" or Japanese
halibut," according to DR.. Irving Field
Of the United States fish commission.
The pure food law frowns on dog
fish being called by any other name,
but the fish commission has been ex-
perimenting with the fish and has de-
termined that it's edibility Is excel
lent. DR.. Field urges, in view Of pres
ent high food prices, that the public
eat dogfsh and not feel at all finical
about the name Dogf1sh is declared
to be almost as good as salmon and
practically indistinguishable from hal
ibut.

WAYsIDE WISDOM.

Nothing is lost save that which is
regretted.
Success seldom gets friendly with
drinking man.
The bravest man is he who knows
when to be afraid.
You can't play hockey from the
School of Experience.
A man never knows how many rela-
tives he has until he begins to get
rich.
A man celebrates many birthdays in
the first six months after his mar
riage.
Nobody borrows trouble but the
man who already has more than he
needs Of it.
To listen to some people talk you
would think their thoughts had just
stepped on banana peel.
Whether the horseshoe is an en-
blem Of luck or not depends on the
kind of horse it is attached to.
It is astonishing how much folly is
committed for reasons which every
judicious person must approve.

A PHILOSOPHERS MUSINGS.

Men are as bad as they dare to be,
women as good.
You can't make truth out of lie by
standing the lie on it's head.
The truth Of today is the lie of yes
terday, and it will be the paradox Of
tomorrow.
Time is not money-it cannot be
boarded; it must be spent, whether
one will or not.
At the final analysis, all one gets
out Of life is board and room and
sense Of achievement
In many marriage, as soon as the
home is established Duty enters at
the door and Love flies out at the
window.
If religion is the consolation of the
soul, then art is the consolation Of the
intellect, and love, of the heart.-Har-

SAYINGS OF CoNFUcIUs.

Have no friends not equal to your
self.
The accomplished scholar is not
utensil.
Learning without thought is labor
lost. Thought without learning is
perilous.
Fine words and an insinauting ap-
pearance aNe seldom associated with
true virtue.
I will not be affected at mems not
knowing me. | will be afflicted that
/ do not know men.
To rule a country there must be
reverent attention to business, SINGER
tty, economy in expenditure, and love
for men.
He who exercises government by
means of his virtue may be compared
to the north polar star, which keeps
it's place, and all the stars turn toward
it.
At Is I had my mind bent on learn
ing. At 80 I stood firm. At 40 I had
no doubts. At so I knew the DEGREES
of heaven. At go my ear was an ODE
dent organ for the reception of truth.
At 70 I could follow what my heart
desired without transgressing what
was right.

EXCISE PETITION NAMES ARE BEING
 ADDED UP TODAY
Must Be 10 Per Cent. of Total Number of Electors or Question Will Not
 Come Up

Town Clerk Thomas and Assistant Clerk w. T. Mullins are busy today counting the names upon the petition filed by the No-license committee for a, vote on the excise question at the next election. Under the new state law it is required that the petition shall carry 10 per cent. of the reg istered voters of the city at the time that the petition is filed. There. are about 1900 names on the petition and it is necessary for the town clerks office to verify the status of every signer as an e1ector. It will be some time today before they will be able to ascertain the exact num- Der of electors in the city, as the registrars are now completing their lists and there has been no, occasion in past years to count the number of listed names.
 While the work of verifying and counting the names on the petition is going on in the office of town clerk the general registrars are today busy counting the number of electors in the city of Bridgeport. If the mum Der of electors should exceed 18,OOO 1t will mean that the No-Iicense com r1ittee's petition will not bring about a vote at the next election. From present indications, there are just about. enough names on the petition to carry it through.

MANUEL NOW REFUCED IN
 OLD ENGLAND
Talk Already of Rich American Bride For the King With
 out Throne
Queen Mother Has Plenty of Money But She Needs it all
 For Her Own Extravagance
Especial from United Press5

Especial from United PreSs.)
 London, Oct. 2o-Accompanied by his mother, Queen AmeIie and his suite, Manuel, deposed King of Portu- gal, is today housed at Wood Norton. Eversham, Worcester the estate of the Duke of Orleans, which will be his refuge for some time to come. In the ex-royal party are the Duke of Orleans, the Marquis De Souveral, the Portuguese minister and Senor Villa Reutia, the Spanish An1ba dor ts~-'z s-- e7@zy
 Manuel and AmeHe. reached Ports mouth at o'clock last night on the English royal yacht, Victoria and Al bert. There was no saluting- Or pub lie reception.
 Now that Manuel is safely refuged in England people are wondering what is to become of the ..King with out job.'' It is the general belief in court circles that Manuel will soon be. on the lookout for a rich American bride.
 It was even suggested while Manuel had throne, that he might take a wealthy American girl for his wife, King, Manuel could wed no woman not of royal birth. Now, however, the American wife talk is regarded seriously, as he needs the money badly.
 The Queen Mother An1elie is com- fortably fixed. financially. She has large pr1Vate IOrIune, Qu1tS apart rom the Portuguese revenues But what Ame1ie has, she needs for herself, for she is known as the most extravagant woman who ever lived. She will take care of Manuel as long as she can but she would like to see him settle down and marry rich.
 Marriage with wealthy royal Princess is now almost out Of the question, and an American is quietly said to be Manue1's next choice Of course, to marry woman outside the the throne, but there seems to be no hope that he will ever get a throne again anyway.
 Manue1's status in England also is causing considerable worry He will have no official standing at all, but in private capacity he will move in roy al circles and be recognized by other royalty as one of them. The Foreign Office could see no way out of giving Manuel a refuge, but 1t was not keen for having him in England. It would cause friction with the Porttu- guese Republic. However England cannot expe1 an ex-King an unde- sirab1e alien. But England will in sist that Manuel do no plotting against the Republic, from English shores England is also somewhat worried about Queen Anelie. The si ignirig and will everIastingIy be try ing to put Manuel up to some. political mischief eas long as she continues to live with him.
 So the government will be very hap py when his ex-majesty gets his American wife and is away from the of his designing mother.
