$1,000 PICTURE P0STALS
Railway Magnate Discovers New
Method to Surprise Friends

ST. LOUIS. oct. 21.-Edward H.
r. Green, railroad president and son
of the richest woman in the world,
Hetty Green, relieved the tedium of
the trip from New York city to Texas
by stopping over in st. Louis yester-
day and personally selecting 10000 diff
ferent kinds of picture postcards.
The millionaire Texan is not going
to open a picture postcard shop, nor
will the assortment be consigned to
any orphans home or any children's
home. The whole bunch is intended
as a Homecoming surprise for the
financiers personal friends and boon
companions down in Texas-railroad
superintendents bank presidents,
ranchmen, cattle owners and brother
Elks.
Each and every one Of the $4,000
postcards is different. There are no
Implications or blanks. Every phase
of picture postcard endeavor Is COW
cred. There are funny ones to make
one split ones sides with laughing,
pathetic ones, beautiful cards and
cards bearing praiseworthy notices.
"I didn't have any special business,
so when ! found a little time on my
hands after calling on my friends I
came down here and began buying
cards." said Mr. Green. TITS a fine
way to pass an acknowledging
$4,000 postcards, You ought to try 1t

BAR UNWED TEACHERS
FROM GIRLS COLLEGES
President of Tufts Thinks Middle
Aged SpinSterS Stunt
Students Growth

MEDFORD, Mass, Oct. 2t.-Presi-
dent Frederick w. Hamilton of Tufts
college has come out with the positive
assertion that unmarried women
teachers should be barred from girls
colleges because their influence is
harmful He says:
81 do not believe that young girls
who are Just passing into young wom-
anhood are in the proper environment
when they are continually brought into
close personal touch with elderly, un-
married women.
1.-THE larger proportion of women's
colleges are in the hands of women
teachers, however, and the educational
atmosphere of the places is feminine,
the peculiar type of femininity deVel-
oped by highly cultured, middle ageu
unmarried women. Now, while the
type may be very fine individually, it
is not the proper one to create the at
mosphere for girls at the formative
period of their lives.
Girls Just coming into womanhood
are receiving their most valuable I'M
pressions and their future attitude
toward the questions of this time.
Their outlook on life which L pelleve
is the most important part of the coll
lege training, should be broad, and 1t
cannot be so unless formed IN an en-
vironment of breadth.
"In the lower grades of the schools
too, and in preparatory schools the in
fluence of the unmarried, middle aged
woman is counteracted by the doml-
Mating influence of the home. 1 believe
that an element of married teachers,
widows who were teachers before mar
riage, perhaps, would be beneficial.
The relationship of these schools and
their pupils is different however, be-
cause the pupils live at home. The
girls at college live a purely academic
life. They are on their resources and
they face problems that are quite new
to them. They are to be trained to
become competent and important parts
of life, we hope. They need a large
outlook and broad viewpoint. The
elements which go to give these must
be brought into their lives at this psy-
Geological time, and all elements that
tend toward narrowness should be
eliminated"

CALIFORNIAN RELATES, HIS
EXPERIENCE IN HURRICANE
Secretary to S. P. Freight Agent
Describes Gulf Storm

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-With her thir-
tv or more passengers thankful that
they had passed safely through the
hurricane whic,. swept the gulf and
the Caribbean sea, the Southern Pa
cific steamer Comus reached port to-
day from New Orleans, four days late.
The Comus left New Orleans Wednes-
day, October 12, and had hardly got
ten into the gulf when the storm broke.
C. De Molineaux, secretary to G. w.
Luce, general freight agent of the
Southern Pacific at san Francisco, told
today Of the exciting experience os the
steamer:
Things began to look alarming
Thursday" said Mr.. Molineaux, ''and
Friday, conditions grew rapidly worse.
Capt. Maxon said it was the worst he
had experienced in II years of sailing
in these waters.
although the matches were bat
tened down and everything was locked
tight, water forced it's way into some
of the state rooms. The decks were
continually swept, the steamer pitched
and rolled frightfully and everybody,
even Capt. Maxon, gave up the ship
as lost.
Conditions improved the next day,
however, but both sea and wind con-
tinued high and there was not enough
sun for an observation An effort was
made to find the vessels location by
soundings, but without result. By
Monday the situation had so improved
that we were no longer fearful and on
Tuesday when the captain was able to
take an observation and head for the
Florida straits, we all felt that we had
weathered the worst experiences in
our lives"

AUBURN, Octt 2t--Theodore A. Bell,
Democratic candidate for governor, adj
dressed 500 citizens of Auburn at 9
o'clock this morning. The audience
packed the opera house and many who
could not gain admission waited on

"Why doesn't Hiram Johnson answer

demanded Bell.

Continuing Bell declared he had been
approached by the Los Angeles Ex-
press. the San Francisco Bulletin and
the Fresno Republican and told that il
he would run for governor on the DEM

support.
"Since their man got through" he
said, "they charge that I have become
allied with everything that is evil and
corrupt in politics. Bell was good
enough for them when they were
afraid of defeat at the primaries, but
now they suddenly find him unfit"
From Auburn the candidates were

HESSIAN TOWN MAKES
WAR ON WOMAN G0SSlPS
Burgomaster Issues Drastic Pro-
cIamation to the GarrulouS

BERLIN, Oct. 21.-The town of Hat
tersheim. in Hesse, has declared war on
women gossips. Scandalmongering
women have played such havoc with
the connubial bliss of the community
that Burgomaster Kessler has resorted
to the drastic extreme of is iing mu-
nicipal proclamation designed to check
the garrulousness of the feminine pop
ulition. The following is the text of
his homily on the evils Of gossip:
prosecutions for libel and SANDER
have recently attained widespread di-
mensions in a certain section of our
community. The Consequences are Bit
ter enmities and heavy financial sac
rinees in the shape of litigation costs.
The cause is usually the same. While
the men folk are hard at work the
women fritter away their time in gos-
slping and quarreling. The training
of the children is neglected and the
household suffers from their lack Of
care.
when the breadwinner comes home
at night the days events are untruth-
fully related to him. Then he must
betake himself as the protector of his
angry wife to the police, to solici-
tor or to an arbitration court. Such
is the family life of many who seek
vainly f-r true domestic happiness. All
teachings that woman should busy her
self at her own fireside, drive scandal
mongers out Of her house and provide
q comfortable home for her husband
and children are lost upon such per-
sons.
''This is to make known that poor
relief will be given only in exceptional
cases to people who involve them
selves in scandal prosecutions. The
police have also been instructed to
compile list of these persons and
warn landlords and tenants against
them"
Little is known here Of Mayor Kess-
ler but the general belief is that he is
a bachelor.

MISS ABBOTT TO OFFER
YSOBEL OF MASCAGNI
Cables Bring News That the New
Opera Will Be Sung in
New York

Some years ago Oscar Hammerstein
locked himself in hotel room in New
York and within twenty-four hours
evolved the score and text of an oper-
eta. Miss Bessie Abbott, who is to
create the title role in Mascagnfs new
grand opera, "Ysobel," in New York,
in November, probably never heard OF
the New York impresario's accom-
plishment, but when she was visiting
at Castellarquato this summer, where
Mascagni and Luigi Lllica, the libret-
tist, were at work on the opera, she
suggested that the only practical way
to attain the completion of the score
was to put Mascagni behind the bars.
Castellarquato is a famous old me-
dieval structure, near Milan, which
Illica has had rebuilt for home. 1t
rejoices in the gloomy grandeur OF
the middle ages, with it's donJons, tur-
rets, drawbridge, moat, portcullis, and
what not, all of which historians tell
and over which fiction writers ro-
nance. Mascagni was incarcerated in
a dungeon, but from his pose and ex-
preston does not seem to be greatly
disturbed over the incident. 1t prob
ably gave him q half hours surcease
from the throes of composition.
However, the cables bring the in
formation that "Ysobel' has at last
been finished, and goes into active
rehearsal the first of the month at
La Scala, Milan, the New York pre-
miere occurring at the New theater

SACRAMENTO UNCORKS

State Capitol
fsneoia1 to The. Herald1

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 21.-Theodore
Bell was given one of the most re-
markable receptions in the history OF
the city from until IL o'clock tonight.
Thousands of citizens were on the
streets to welcome Bell and his party.
The rally began with a parade through
the streets of the city, with Bell, Tim
othy Spellacy and Major p. j. Har-
ney, the chairman, riding in carriage
drawn by four white horses and with
more than 1000 men swinging cow bells
and waving Roman candles in their
wake. The streets and sidewalks were
thronged with citizens and at Seventh
and K streets, where the nominees fer
governor and lieutenant governor were
escorted from their hotel to their car
riages, the congestion became so dense
that a detail of police had to be called
out to clear the tracks. Bell spoke at
the "old pavilion" at Sixth and M
Streets, where many a memorable po-
litical gathering has been held In
side were packed 1000 persons and other
thousands jammed the streets about
the building. 1t was with the utmost
difficulty that the police were able to
clear path for Bell to enter.
''I shall continue my fight against
William r. Herrin and the Southern
Pacific machine" said Bell. 81 have
fought them for years, in California
and in the house of representatives.
I have been accused of making cor
rupt alliances. L have no reply to
make but to point to my record and
to declare that I will continue the same
fight I have been waging. intend
to go through this campaign without
resorting to the vilifcation employed
by my enemies"
During the course of the day, Bell
was given an unexpected welcome by
the women Of Fair Oaks, who took
charge of the meeting hall there, and
profusely decorated it. At the same
place, Judge A. r. Hodge declared
that after Cell had served a term as
governor. he would be succeeded by
Mr.. Spellacy, and that the retiring ex-
ecutive would be sent to the United
States senate.
Bell with emphasis, reiterated his
frequent declaration that he would be
elected. and again said his policy
would be a square deal for everybody,
railroads included.

CONSTANTINOPLE GRANTS
COURTESY TO EGYPTIANS
Turks Remove Restrictions on
Passports

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 21.-Up to
this summer very little encouragement
was given by the Turks to the Egyp-
tian Nationalists, who have more than
once received decided snubbing at
Constantinople. With the prolonged
stay Of the khedive in his new palace
at Chibulxly, however, a change is
very apparent today. Before the
Turkish revolution few If any better
class Egyptians ever cared to come to
Turkey from fear of being accused OF
some real or imaginary offense and
prevented from returning, but now
that most of the restrictions on travel
in the way of passports and tezkerehs
have been modified or removed, the
influx Of strangers into the beautiful
Ottoman capital is one of the most
marked signs of the changed order OF
things.
Under these circumstances the open
air reception now given to the Egyp-
tians who are f1ocking into Constan-
tinople is very significant, and is of
itself sufficient to show that a large
amount of sympathy is extended to
them, the ultimate results of which
it is not easy to forecast. Not only
do the Egyptians visit COnstantinople
like returned exiles to hitherto for
hidden country, but they are buying
property in all directions and drawing
much closer the ties which had so long
been loosed between the great Turk
ish families of Egypt and their re-
lations in Constantinople.
1t is impossible to shut ones eyes
to the inevitable consequences of this
movement, which must lead to grad
ual Identification Of interests between
the ruling classes in Turkey and the
most wealthy and influential Egyp-
tians, and their example will surely
be followed by the next strata until
Turks and Egyptians will become
brothers in the flesh as we'll as in re-
ligion Then there is the foundation
of a Masonic lodge in connection with
the Grand Orient, by Prince AZiz. This
lodge Is extremely active in recruiting
members and there can be little doubt
that branch of it will be established
in Cairo or Alexandria.
These are all signs that those who
run may read-not very striking or OBJ
truslve ones perhaps, but all marking
the growth of "A current of sentiment
which requires careful watching by all
the powers interested in Egypt and
the near east There is at first sight
nothing very alarming in the large
purchases of land by Egyptians In
Turkey, or in the establishing of
branch of the redoubtable Grand Orient
at Constantinople, but should this
lead to any political intrigues and
support from Turkey to the National
list party in Egypt it would at once
become a subject for grave apprenen-
sion by England.
