YOUNG KNOX MARRIED.
SON OF SECRETARY OF STATE IN
EXCITING ROMANCE.
Leaves Morris Heights School and Takes
Providence Girl to Vermont for
Ceremony.

PROVIDENCE. r. l., March S.
Miss May Boiler, who ran away with
Philander c. Knox. Jr., son of the sec
rotary of state, last Friday, was mar
ried to Mr.. Knox Sunday night in Bur
lington, Vt. She said so here, but be-
yond this announcement would say moth
Ing about the wedding.
Young Knox and his bride left for
Washington on the Federal express at
9:O7 o'clock. bringing to a whirlwind eli
max strenuous romance. Up to the
time the train left it was supposed Knox
was out of town. When the Federal
express came into the station Princi-
pal French of the Morris Heights school
was there with a grip. He told news
papermen he was going to Washington
to tell the secretary of state all about
the D,ys escapade.
He has been asked to withdraw from
our school," said Prof. French, land
he never again will get into the rooms.
We could not discharge him, from pro-
fessional etiquette"
Prof. French went into a parlor car
and hardly had taken a seat when three
young persons, a man and two women,
entered hurriedly and went into the COM
partment. They locked the door. One
of the girls was Nn0S's wife Reporters
told Mr.. French about it and he made
partment.
Mr.. French said il was an outrage
that the girl should go to Washington,
and said he would have the Westerly po-
lice take the girl off the train. Chief
of Police Banfeld refused to take the
couple off the train and they continued
on their journey.
The announcement of the wedding by
Mrs. Knox was made after many per-
sistent denials. She was located in her
suite this afternoon. and finally, follow
ing a long argument. said
We'll. as long as | must, / will say
that Mr.. Knox and / were married
at Burlington, VT, Sunday evening. 1t
was at the home of friend of Mr..
Knox. and a clergyman performed the
ceremony. do not remember his name,
as Mr.. Knox attended to all that.
will say no more about it now We in
tended to tell all about it in a short
time. but wanted to keep it for while.
Mr.. Knox has a good reason for not
wishing it known"

northeastern coast, according to the
London Daily News
At Bempton, a few miles from Bird
ington, the favorite resort of these egg
hunters, the chalk cliffs tower 400
feet above the sea. They are the home
of thousands of gulls, cormorants, kit
tiwakes and other sea birds that have
just begun to build their rough nests
in the chalky creviceS. William Viii
kinson, who has pursued this perilous
calling for many years, is known local
ly as "the king of the egg hunters.
He is a bluff, weather SCARED man of
the sea- with as much nerve and agil-
ing steeplejack.
Wilkinson wears an old helmet TO
protect his head from the pieces of
rock dislodged by the rope by which
he is suspended in midair. Around
his body be buckles a kind of leasher
hammock, in which he is able to sit.
On his arm he wears leather protec-
tors.
Lower away, boys he cries, as he
swings himself over the brink in an
almost horizontal position and press
es each foot firmly against the chalk
surface. Three OF the men sieze the
/ rope, and foot by foot the intrepid
climber is lowered till his CHEEKY voice
| is lost amid the f1uttering sounds Of
! the disturbed birds. He swings from
nest to nest, putting each egg careful
/ ly in bag slung over his shoulder.
! AS soon as his bag is full he gives the
| hoist up signal on the guide rope
! and the men haul him UP.
/ Wilkinson makes several descents
| and at the end of the day shares the
spoil with his assistants, who sell the
eggs for eating purposes to the inhab-
! itants OF the neighboring villages.

Quarrel Between Manager of Street
Railway and Police Officer Leads
Up to Riot

BOGOTA,, Colombia, March S.-A
quarrel between the manager of an
American-owned street railway line and
a police officer late Monday was fol
lowed by riot during which mob at
tempted to wreck the street cars. The
traffic was stopped and the manager
placed under arrest
The rioting continued for some time,
and reached the block in which the
American legation is situated The police
gathered in force, but the mob, after
wreaking vengeance on the rolling stock
of the company, attacked the United
States legation, stoning the building.
The diplomats were guarded and though
there were further disturbances during
the night, the authorities this morning
appeared to be able to afford protection
to the Americans.
Elliott Northcott is the American min
lister at Bogota and Paxton Hibben is
the secretary. All at the legation were
said to be SAFE. Mr.. Northcott came
hare last August from West Virginia
and was formerly judge of the district
court for the southern district of that
state.

A shade of sadness, a blush of shame,
Over the face of the leader came
The noble nature within him stirred.
There was no need for a 'blush of

TT was the coming of the upright
piano that put the organs down and
out" said piano dealer recently.
The old square piano couldn't be sold
for less than $500. The upright was
easier to handle and easier to put to-
gether, and It sold at first for about
$500. twenty-five years ago only the
rich-the class that buys motor cars
now-owned pianos. The medium class
owned organs. Now only the poorer
people buy organs. Pianos are being
improved rapidly. I think that in ten
years all pianos will be made with
player attachments.
The musical taste of the people is
improving right along. Many organs
are still being sold. Every family
must have some sort of musical in
strument in the home and the man
ayers Of music stores testify that the
music that is being bought is of the
higher class. Just as much popular
music is being sold as ever, but the
demand for high class music has de-
veloped rapidly in the last ten years.
