PREDEcEssoRs OF COOK
Explorers Feat Dwafed by Man Who
 Forged Formosan Language.

From the PittSburg Gazette-Tlmes.
 Those who gave credence. to the claim of Dr. Cook to have reached the north pole need not be dsconcerted by lne ver- dict that his claim is unfounded, or the gleeful self-satisfaction of the people who denounced him from the first. It would require a nature schooled in duplic- ity and inured to deception to suspect as an impostor every one who comes along. Strlverte, French philosopher, declared that man is credulous because he is naturally sincere and Shake speare, who knew human nature so well, assures us that suspicion always haunts the guilty mind.' It is no disgrace to have believed the plausible doctor from the City of Churches, and it would be most uncomfortable world if we had to act upon the theory that all men are liars, guilty until proved innocent.
 Nor on the other hand, need those who now loudly proclaim Cook as the great est faker that ever lived, plume them selves upon having anticipated the yer dict of history It is hardly likely that the doctor will be able to rehablitate himself. but even so, he cannot hope to occupy the most exalted niche in the gal lery of impostors. His fraud, if such it was, must be regarded as a very cheap and paltry deception alongside of the ex- ploits accredited to George Psalmanazar and other really clever prevaricators. Psalmanazar, after wandering over Eu- rope in many picturesque disguises, passed himself off as Japanese con vert from Formosa, and fooled the bsh- ops of London as well as the savants of Oxford. He invented not only fabulous geography of Formosa, but an entire Ian guage, grammar and all. which he de- clared to be Formosan. Compared with this impostor, or even with the Ireland who forged Shakespearan play and the Macpherson who wrote the Ossianic poems, Dr. Cook appears as very ann ateur of Munchausens. and his inventive genius decidedly deficient.
 There is still one chance. however, to inscribe his name on the roll of fame. If it shall be proved that he consciously de- ceived the world and got away with $100, 900 of it's money, he must be acclaimed as the greatest hold-up man of ali times, and his lightning foray excels the dash ing exploits of Jesse James.

STUDIO CHAT WITH HENRY HUTT
Women Artist Draws Are Composite
 Type Called From Many Models.

Roxanna White in Vogue
 As Sidney Lanier sat alone, calling in his solitude the wonder children from the surrounding shadows so at twilight one may find Henry Hut in his studio. surrounded by an atmosphere of waiting, listening. There is no incumbering fur niture, smothering hangings or corner wise screens; there are airy, silent, rest full spaces on floor. ceiling and wall.
 Here a woman in a deep red gown stands like some scarlet poppy, drowsing in the border in rauiant loveliness; there Q blue-eyed girl, with the wonder-look of the immature, assures one that MT. Hut knows well the forget-me-not. There are stately white lily women. and dainty wild-rose maidens; an autumn leaf Rosalind. in russet brown sheath of garmenting, and red-checked, red-lipped clover women, and nestling tender violet folk.
 It is evident that Henry Hut works un- der the influence of a sentiment. He ensnares your attention with a piquant persuasion of color, which he lays, gar ment-wise, over careful carelessness of drawing.
 It Is in the eyes of his people that MT. Hut makes his deepest human appeal. They question, meet and return your gaze.
 When asked how he achieved this ef- feet the artist replied: Do they really seem to be eyes? I try to make them so-and more." Did he mean souls? ''I work and work over them. I never work consecutively on any piece of work. Sometimes will have as many as 9 drawings under way" he said.
 But how can you hold the original idea of each one without confusion?' he was asked.
 don't' he said; q change and change. I never stick to one model for drawing. I work it over and over again with several different models, getting this from one and that from another. Some times I paint directly over the work of the first from the second This then was the secret of Henry Hutt's fine feeling or individuality, with which he endows his work. He does not paint women, but a woman.
 T want my people to be individuals, [" he continued; mot the mere essence of my personality, nor a reproduction of the models. want them to be composite, as is the real human being.

|PAULHAN BEST ADVERTISED MAN ON CONTINENT TODAY
  Flights In Bumin

aviator, and it Is probable that if some one told Paulhan that no avaitor could cross the Atlantic, he would make the attempt.
 Some Personalities
 Personally Paulhan Is a general good fellow, but is as contrary as can be. It is said that if suggestion is made that he attempt a flight from one end of field, he invariably will leave from the other Oftentimes when the big Gnome engine is running full speed and several mechan- icians are tugging with might and main to keep the plant from soaring into space, Paulhan will slowly reach into his coat pocket for a cigarette case, extract a tube and light it; then look back at the mcchanicians and grin. That Is Paulhan Another personal side of his character was exhibited at the recent exhibitions at New Orleans MT. Cleary endeavored to impress upon Paulhan the enormous de- mands upon the hotels for accommoda- tions during the Mardi Gras, as 1t is Paulhan's custom to demand an entire suite of rooms. Paulhan would not listen to the entreaties of his manager, stating mo suite; no fly" Faulhan got three rooms that cost Cleary a neat little sum during the carnival week, but he knew that to hold out against the eccentric Frenchman would be futile.
 
 at the Gunewald, and during Paulhan's s stay within the city, although at the busiest time of the year. one elevator was set aside for the exclusive use of the Paulhan party. The elevator was deco rated with French and American flags and anyone not belonging to the Paulhan party was not allowed to use 1t. The contract with Cleary calls for the best ac- commodations in city and If a suite of rooms is not immediately available Paul han will not enter until all arrangements have been completed
 An Enormous Salary
 The salary of the President of the United States Is a mere bagatelle com pared to the enormous amount of money received by Pauhan Under the contract with Cleary Paulhan receives $24,000 per month, exclusive of all expenses for the entourage. This contract is signed for two years the salary and expense money to continue whether Paulhan flies or not. cident or sickness as long as the aviator is compelled to remain away from his work E.
 Paulhan carries no life insurance for the reason that the greatest insurance aggregation in the world, Lloyds of Lon don, will not quote a rate to him. When Paulhan began flying he carried $65,00o upon his life, but after that memorable flight at Rheims, France, all was can celled and he has never been able to ob- tain any since. The aeroplanes, however, are heavily insured by a blanket policy in the Globe of London; s65,0o0 protects the machines from loss by wreck, tor nado, fire and malicious meddling. Paul

Nothing under the sun on this plane could have been secured by the Bus. mess Mems league for Birming gham ir which there is so much general inter. est, or which will. satisfy the people of Alabama so perfectly as the Paul han flyers, who will appear in Bir- mingham March and g.
 It is estimated that from 50,O00 tc 100000 people will witness the daring feats of the man-bird every day that he is here.
 There was some question about bringing the famous Frenchman on such short notice, but when it was taken into consideration that he has figured in the public print as one ot the greatest men of the day for three months, and is the best advertised man in the country second only to Roose- welt, the league thought it was talk ing no chances.
 The enthusiastic interest in aviation is now the ruling passion of the Amer ican people. Every line about an air ship is literally devoured, and in the following clipping from the Houston Post, where Paulhan is now flying, the people of Alabama will find much oi interest;
 A Sky Pilot
 Paulhan is a true sky pilot. He is a flyer, and his sole efforts are to make his flights of interest to the public There is nothing strained in his man. ner of flying, and it is possible if the public did not pay for his services he would make flights for. his own amusement. He takes delights in soar ing to heights seldom reached by the most powerful and largest birds, and takes flying generally as sort of fun that he enjoys and others, enjoy see ing.
 Anything in the aerial stunt line that has ever been done by any other aviator has been done by Paul. han--and a few more that no sane aviator ever attempted. Paulhang has gone to greater heights than any oth- CT person in. heavier -than-air ma ch inc; has travelled faster, farther and has carried a passenger for a greater distance. His whirlwind drecord-breakine g has been so swift within the past few months that few have kept track of the quick little F'renchman. Beginning with a flight at Rheims that was nothing out of the ordinary, he had. within three weeks, established height record. and from that date on broke and rebroke his own and other records. Nothing has been too hazardous for the French

one of the most beautiful placesin the capital.
 Unfortunately the Lenten season pre- vented what otherwise would have happened with Mrs. Cornelius Wander tilt in town, but allow me to whisper tbat an unusually wide ripple was cre- ated by the visit of the society leader from New York. Mrs. Vanderbilt came Co spend several days with Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth this week, but her coming had been heralded long before and the rivalry for her presence at teas and dinners bade fair for time to cause an open rupture. Mrs. Longworth planned a number of affairs herself.
 Four states seem to be monopolizing g society this season. They are Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Washing tn. The fact that President Taft halls from Ohio may give cause in the first instance and in the second because Sec retary Knox comes from Pittsburg. But in addition. Mrs. Laughlin. sister of Mrs. Taft comes from Pennsylvania. Secretary Dickinson is from Tennes- s.e and likewise Justice Lurton, who was recently appointed to the supreme bench. is a Tennesseap.

The Misses Baxter of Knoxville, who are sperding the winter here, are social favor!t and with them is Miss Temple, also of Tennessee, who is residing at the New Willard. Secretary Ballinger is from Seattle, and there are host of Washington people spending the winter here.
 L. a1 numerous in Washington this year that their organization of the Bachelors club" has really become q social power. Of course leading the list of e1igibles is Mir. Hitchcock, postmaster general, but there is Billy Hit, who was report ed engaged to Miss Katherin Elkins: Gist Blair, president of the club; Col. Montgomery Macomb. vice president of the organizations; Freddy" Brooke, Ellis, J. Manville Carlisle, Capt. Sherw ood Cheney Nat Wyeth and ever so many more. Strange isn't it?
 Mrs Herbert May of Panama, who has reen spending the winter season in Washington became very popular and there was universal regret when she departed for Mobile. After a short sta, at Mobile Mrs. May planned to JOln DeT Huspdhup AViohSi Mdy, dt Huntsville, Ala.

han will not trust the planes to the ordi- nary baggage car, although there are enough tickets purchased by the entour- age to cover all baggage carried. After every flight the planes are disman,sed and placed in baggage cars. When the last mechanician leaves the car in the presence of an express messenger, the cars are sealed and are not opened until they have arrived at their destination anc then only in the presence of Paulhan or one of the official staff The express charges on these planes are enormous. On the recent trip from New York to Los Angeles express books show the charges to have been $500 The man behind all these expenses and the one who, after witnessing Paulhan's exhibi- ton flight at Rheims, decided to bring him to America, is Edwin Cleary.
 Edwin Clesry, Promoter
 Edwin CIeary, who will arrive in Hous- ton this morning, is well known not only in every civilized country, but in darkest Africa. Cleary has long been identified with the financial end of a number of large operas and big theatrical produe- tions. Twenty years ago he took the fa- nous Lawrence Barrett and company to Paris and after that promoted a number of large productions Several years ago a proposition. to build a railroad in Africa was put to him, and without any pre- yious railroad experience he took con- tract to build and built the first railroad In the Soudan. This project was a siIc- cess and Cleary had just returned to France about the same time Paulhan was successful in obtaining an engine for tie aeroplane he had been awarded for a prize aeroplane model.
 At the Rheims aviation meet Cleary. along with several thousand other inter- ested people, was a spectator. The flights of Paulhan so interested him and won his admiration that he immediately opened negotiations with the aviator for tour of America The contract was closed at enormous figures for period of two years, and through the efforts of Cleary the American public has been afforded an opportunity to witness the worlds great est flyer. The entire entourage is owiied and contracted for by Cleary. He has il aeroplanes of the latest types in which he has invested about s100,O00 in cash. This is only a part Of the enormous outlay necessary to place the exhibitions before the public. There are parts and repair materials and hundreds of little things that come into use every day. Besides, he carries full corps of press and advance agents, pays the expenses of the entire party, which often means spe- cial trains; number of expert mechanj- clans accompany the planes, all receiving the highest salaries, making the yearly expenses shouldering upon this one man as great as some of the budgets neces- sary to maintain some of the small king doms in Europe. In all. his expenses for the tntire show aggregate almost s1,000. 600 a year.

 Tablets Sent Free.
 The Abbe Spallanzani was the first scientist to study systematically the chemical powers of the gastric juice, but it was by the careful and convinc- ing experiments of Beaumont that the foundation of our exact knowledge of its composition and action was laid. ! Beaumont was an army surgeon, located at an obscure military post in Michigan, while it was yet territory, apG was called upon to treat gun shot wound of the stomach in a Cana dian voyageur-Alexis St. Martin. When the wound healed permanent opening was left by means of which food could be placed in the stomach and gastric juice taken from it.
 Beaumont made scientific experi- ments with his crude means and wrote a book, which today is recognized among the classics of physiology.
 Beaumont blazed the way for other ,.scientists so that today medicine knows What the stomach does with food and what food does to the stomach.
 Science also knows what the gastric juices are and how to make them best for the system. / Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, thanks to the poor army surgeon and Alexis St. Martin, give man a means of digestjng food, replenishing the exhausted juices, soothing the nerves and correcting dys- peptic conditions of the stomach.
