WHILE LABORING
HEARS OF LEGACY

SPOKANE, Wash, November TO-
While sorting potatoes in a warehouse
in North Yakima. Wash, Alfred Ernest
Bartram, licensed physician of Col.
chester, England, received word that
he is heir to a fortune of $4,000, and
will Immediately return to his old
home to establish his claim.
Barram has been tramping in the
northwestern states and provinces
Since 1906, also touring Japan and
China after the fashion of American
"hoboes" to gather material for a
book. He went to the Yakima valley
at the beginning of the harvest season
and helped care for the hay crop on
the Indian reservation, afterward en-.
gaging as a potato sorter. He is high,
ly educated a graduate of several
prominent English colleges and univer-
stiles, and has travelled extensively
in Europe and America.
While at work in the hay fields he
never talked of his past nor of his
connection with one of the first fami-
lies in Colchester, but made it plain
that he left England of his own volt
ton.

NEW DANCES FOR
THE SMART SET

PARIS, November 16.-Consterna-
ton is the only word when describing
the feeling of Paris society on hear
ing the verdict of the International
Congress of Dancing Masters which
has just met here to decide on the
fashionable dances for the coming
winter Indeed, the decision of the
congress is such that everybody is in
the embarrassing position of having to
start learning the art of dancing over
again. The waltz, the two-step, the
Russian mazurka, the pas-de-quarte
and the schottische are no longer of
any avail to the dancer, for they have
been ruthlessly ruled out of fashion
able drawing rooms. In fact, the
American styles, which have carried
Europe by storm the last two or
three years are to be ostracised, and
the United States only contribution
now accepted is the sleeping love"
waltz We are to have the "aviator's
dance" which is light, housekeeping
rapid measure, and slows down at the
end into movement of dangerous
grace. There is also the "Lukinskof,"
a CossaCk dance of strenuous action.
made fashionable, of course, by the
recent invasion of the Russian bal
let's The. coronation of King George
has suggested the "royale," a stately
measure which will take the place of
the quadrille for official balls. 1t is
calculated that to learn these five
dances alone will occupy the dancing
contingent of society from now until
Christmas.
Three other new dances are the
modern Mazruka," the Waltz Min
ute Louise XIV" which is strongly sug.
gestive of the elaborate and stately
measures of the eighteenth century,
and finally the Argentine five-step."
Argentine dances are the rage in
Paris now, the latest being the cha
banera, which is expected to be
great success when fairly launched by
the dancing professors. As described
by the president of the congress, this
dance must be performed as follows:
"rhe cavalier and the lady hold
each other as in all the other turning
b, dances, but at some distance, so as
not to interfere with the undulations
OF the body The arms are held al.
most at the height of the shoulders,
which are kept very far back. The
partners commence on opposite feet
p for all the figures of this dance. Two
gliding steps are to be made forward,
followed by two walking steps. with
e. a slight undulation of the body, throw
2 ing its weight alternately on one leg
b. and the other, without moving the
/ feet. These same steps are to be
made in all directions. The various
figures and positions which are taken
with this step add a great charm to
this dance"

CLOTHING AND COFFEE
Observation-Disclosures


A coffee-planter in Brazil believes
he has found one explanation for the
high cost of coffee.
Writing to one of his consignees in
the New England States he says:
your people sent missionaries to
tell the workers on our plantations
that it was wrong to go naked, which
was the custom, or partly so, in the
majority of cases.

but they long to possess three or four
pairs of those yellow shoes which
were sold down here by your Boston
drummers.
Furthermore, our travellers in the
States upon their return tell us of the
great quantities of a beverage called
beer consumed by your people, and
sold at five cents a glass.
Now anyone who understands the
coffee business knows that it costs
more to produce a good cup of cot
fee than it does a glass of beer-and

HER HUSBANDS
SH0RT-LIVED

CHICAGO. November 1O.-The po-
lice today decided to eXhume the re-
mains Of John Mcdonald, the first
husband of Mrs John Quinn, who is
held here today under suspicion Of
Staying three husbands, as a result of
the testimony at the inquest over
Quinn. who was found dead at his
home on the outskirts of Chicago on
the night of November ,. If the be.
liefs of the police prove true, Mrs.
Quinns case will almost rival that of
Mrs. Louis Vermilya, the alleged
wholesale poisoner who is held here.
John Mcdonald died at Jackson,
Mich. on Septemer %, 1901. The
womans second and third husbands
were both shot as they lay sleeping in
bed, and in both cases the wife
claimed that burglars slew them. She
was the only witness to the shooting
each time. If poison is found in the
viscera of Mcdonald it wil confirm
the suspicion that the woman is con
nected with the three husbands
deaths.
Charles Thorpe, the woman's step
son by her second marriage, told the
coroner at the inquest over Quinn that
he had always suspected the woman
of killing Thorpe.

HUSBAND SHOT ON

10.-Warned over the telephone By
Mrs. Arvin that her husband, Ed
Arvin, was on his way to the home of
his son-in-law, Robert Beers, to "clean
out the family" Clyde Beers, brother
of Robert, awaited Arvin's coming
with an automatic shotgun. AS a re,
suit Arvin lies in hospital today at
the point of death from five gunshot
wounds in his body. Beers, aged 20,
is under arrest.
According to Beers, Arvin came
into the house holding two loaded
guns. He fired first, Beers, asserts,
and then the young man shot five
times in rapid succession, each shot
entering the aged mans body.
