STORY BOOK GIRLS.

A writer in ST Nicholas, chatting
about the people in books who be
came like friends to us, says of Diana
Vernon:
How many of you know her?
There's not a finer girl in literature
than Di, and if Sir Walter Scott had
done nothing else than give US the
privilege Of knowing her, he would have
done enough to deserve our gratitude.

IL was long ago on a wild autumn
evening. The book, Rob Roy. had
been given to me for a birthday pres

reading it. 1t always seems to me
as though Di had stepped into the
big, low-ceilinged room with its open
fire and the bay windows that looked
on the sea, and that we had become
friends from that instant-a friend

most of the incidents in her story
have grown dim. But you don't for

AND THIS A ROCKEFELLER!
The cheekboy Was Not Permitted to
Assist Percy.

Some folks believe that Percy Rookie
Teller is the white hope Of the Rookie
Teller family. according to the New
| York correspondent of the Cincinnati
Times Star. He is credited with being
wise and wary. He keeps a thumb on
the public pulse. and knows a lot of
things about popular sentiment that
many other rich men do rot know. The
other night he went away to a Broad
way restaurant with Il party of friends.
The restaurant is rather a favorite of
his. and the immature pirate in charge
of the hatrOOm had learned to know
him. Mr.. Rockefeller handed him his
mushed and desiccated cid brown hat
as he entered. 1t was a good hat
once. The hat pirate looked on Mr..
Rockefeller with pity in his gaze. BY
and by Mr.. Rockefellers supper ended,
and he returned to the courtroom to re-
trieve his bonnet. Instead of that de-
crepit Old brown lid the boy handed
him a new one of the same general
form and bearing the label of Ameri-
cas- most expensive maker. 1t fitted
Rockefeller perfectly. but he handed
it back This isn't my hat" he said.
Get wise. bo.' the hat pirate said.
Nudge by with it while you can. It's
worth ten of them old kettles you been
wearin'"
Mr. Rockefeller said that was un-
doubtedly true. But he did not want
to rob an unknown of a new hat.

cause you been a good Teller. But you
better go back wherever you come
from. You amt bright enough To do

RAILWAY RATES NOT ADVANCED
Officials Say They Are Only obeyins
Federal Law.

Trenton.-The New Jersey Public
Utilities commission began, on its own
initiative, an inquiry into the changes
in rates announced by some OF the
railroads operating in New Jersey.
These alterations are to become eff
fective on August /. The railroads
contend the changes are made only
to comply with the interstate com
merce provisions. Those represented
before the commission were the Cen
trail Railroad of New Jersey, Phila-
delphia & Reading, Pennsylvania,
Erie, Lehigh Valley and the New York
Central lines.
The representatives of the latter
interests announced that as there
were no increases on their lines they
would withdraw, and did SO.
The Pennsylvania railroads repre-
sentative was H. w. Kikle. He said
that what the road proposed to do
was absolutely needful to obey the
federal law. One of the provisions of
the law was that the fare between
any two points on a road should not
be greater than the sum of the fares
between the intervening points. To
comply with this it had been needful
to make many changes in rates that
had stood for years.
The one-way fares, he said, had
been adjusted last February SO as to
comply with the law, but there had
been no attempt at that time to cor
rect the two-way fares, and this was
now to be done. There was no gen.
eral disposition to increase fares at
this time. In many cases, Mr.. Kikle
declared, the fares would be found to
be reduced. The e. of the
road would be decreased. In effect,
there was more traffic between points
where there were reductions than be-
tween points where there were in
creases, and the net result was fig
ured to bring the income down rather
than up.

near the state camp, ten members of

Every one of the committeeman,
most of whom were old friends of the
state chairman, vigorously denounced
him for his toast. General Collins
told his fellow members that had he
been present he would have knocked
the glass from the state chairman's
hands. The resolutions also commend
ed Gov. Wilson's leadership of the
Democratic party in New Jersey and
expressed the confidence of the COM
mitteemen in it.
After the resolutions were adopted
the committeeman called on the Gov
ernor in a body and presented them
to him. He declined to make any
comment on the Nugent incident,
but thanked the committeeman for
their confidence in him.
