EVENING CHAT
BIZ RUTH CAMERON.

Molly. the little stenographer lady
was blue.
That's not an ordinary state of mind
with her for Molly has an adorably
tiptilted nose and a disposition to
match.
This night, however. Molly felt she
had a grievance. Not against anyone
in particulad. Molly doesn't ever
cherish that kind. But just against
fate.
well if you really want to know
| I'll tell you just what's on my mind
big sister," she conceded finally after
some rallying upon her low state of
mind. big sister" by the way. is
Molly's name for the lady-who- always
knows somehow.
cit was just girl that I sat oppo-
site on the trolley coming home that
got me to thinking. Say big sister, she
was wonderful. You've read about
people having eyes like stars, haven't
you? Well she really had them, black
StarS-not the kind that twinkle, but
the kind that shine and shine and
make you feel queer to look into them
even if you're a girl too. And her hair
was just one dusky massive coil and
her skin was olive with the redness
coming and going underneath all the
time, and her nose was straight, the
way noses ought to be. and her mouth
well I know if I were a man I sim
| ply couldn't see that mouth without
wanting to kiss it. Somehow she just
made me think of violin music and
warm June nights and the time 1 went
to grand opera and what I think
Venice would be like, and peoples, and
well everything like that"
| Molly paused to think II over min
ute, her own grey eyes shining not so
unlike the shiny kind of stars.
well. as 1 was telling you big sis
! ter she took up the thread of her
I tale, cit just come over me how Won
derful it was to be like thai and how
terrible to think 1 never, never could
be. I, I, well to tell the truth, big
sister, 1 suppose you think it's silly
and borrowing trouble, but I just got
to thinking that suppose 1 were en-
gagged to a man and he liked me
awfully well and sometime he should
meet her or someone like her and see
her q lot-Well if he were man and
had any blood in his veins, how could
he help thinking of JuEe nights and
violin music and peoples. and what use
would he have for people with crooked
noses and silly dimples?"
The lady-who -always-kn ows-some-
how laughed gently at Molly-the way
rather than amusement.
Then she thought minute.
And then she said, do you like
moonlight. little sister?"
Love it," said Molly, succinctly.
But would you like to live IN lan0
where it was always moonlight
"Oh.' said Molly very quickly.
''No-o-o," concluded Molly very
Eslowly.
Neither would most of u.s." said the
lady. ''I'll tell you. I've thought about
lit, too little sister, and this is the way
I've thought it out.
There are a great many kinds of
people There's the wonderful blood
stirring moonlight people a d beauti-
lful brilliant footlight people, and cud-
dly romantic freight people, and
dreamy aesthetic people and stylish

lots of others like that And then
there's the plain daylight people, the
kind Lincoln said God must have loved
because he made so many of them.

Walls of His Prison.

New York, July 3.-Porter Charlton.
who has been in the Hudson county
jail in New Jersey for the better part
of a year, pending the outcome cf
Italy's demand for his extradition on
the charge of wife murder, is said to
be developing considerable art talent.
The inside walls of the jail have been
done over recently and Charlton's
decorations are said to be really
meritor1ous. The prisoner spends
much time reading and shows great IN
terest in works on international law.
Much of the work keeping the Jail is
done by TRUSTEES and Charlton is boss
of one of these gangs.
Paul Charlton of the board of in
sular affairs, who was appointed by
President Taft last Friday to the posi-
ton of federal judge of the depart
ment of Porto Rico, has notified Por-
ter Charlton. his son, that he will
come to see him before leaving the
country. The fight to have Charlton
returned to Italy is being pressed by

States army, the brother of the slain
woman.

 suspicious case, that of Edgar Herr mann, the hospital orderly, was found to be absolutely negative in a second examination, and although third test will be made, the hospital as- thorities seemed confident toniglN they had no cholera on their hands. 1 The case of the laborer, Louis

 Satisfaction was reflected also at the gate of the city where two ves- sels arrived from Italian ports with clean bills of heatn. Both the Gun ard liner Carpathia and the North German Lloyd liner Berlin were held up for several hours, but not the
 slightest evidence of cholera was discovered.
 Two of the Italian liners under de tention last night, were released-the Principe di Piemonte and the San Giorgio.
 It has not been determined at Quarantine up to late hour tonight whether any of the suspects from the Oceania, which was held up last night. were cholera victims or car. riers.
