BY a Woman Who "Has
Passion" for Such.
PUTS SHOES IN BANK VAULT
When She Isn't Wearing EN-
Has Plenty of Gowns
For a Change.
FABULOUS OUTLAY FOR STYLE

Washington, Feb. 16.-With six
pairs of shoes studded with dia-
monds, one pair set with turquoise,
bronze shoes covered with beads of
gold and two massive gold anklets
,scintillating with gems. Mrs. C. H.
Anthony, of Muncie, Ind, who for
TWO weeks has astonished Washing
1on with her jewels, will visit New
York next week and carry her con-
quest to Fifth avenue
Mrs. Anthony is probably the only
woman in the world who keeps her
shoes in a bank vault.
For her New York visit she has
prepared 25 evening gowns. rich
with rare laces and studded with
SENS. She will not appear on the
street twice in the same gown, for
she owns 80 tailored suits of expen-
sive cloths. Forty gowns for morn
ings and afternoons are in her
trunks. each one carefully wrapped
in tissue paper.
Mrs. Anthony has q hat to match
each gown, including one hat of
black velvet and gold lace that has
thousand-dollar bird Of paradise
on j.. Other hats are made of gold
thread and Duchess lace and are
decorated with rare plumage.
Ermine, lynx, white fox and sable
furs match the gowns and hats. But
above all stand out Mrs. Anthony's
shoes. One pair is of cloth of gold,
with big diamonds imbedded in the
heels; another pair of Duchess
lace, even to the heels, upon which
diamonds sparkle like drops of dew.
slippers of silver and gold brocade,
of blue and pink, their heels all set
with diamonds, are an array fit for
any Cinderella
One especially handsome pair of
street boots in bronze is covered
with gold beads, while its neighbors
OF white doe skin have jeweled but
tons. To-day Mrs. Anthony wore
red buckskin shoes with sardonyx
buttons.
Every finger on Mrs. Anthony's
TWO hands is full to overlooking
with diamonds, sapphires, emerald
and ruby rings, and her arms, al
most to her elbows, are covered
with massive begemmed golden
bangles.
1t is stated, and Mrs. Anthony re-
fuses to deny, that she wears golden
carriers in the form of snakes with
diamond eyes.
Mrs. Anthony startled the other
guests at President Taft's reception
to members Of Congress last Tues
day night by wearing shoes with
diamond-studded heels. Her head
dress on that occasion was made Of
white aigrettes that cost small
fortune, fastened with a wide band
of pearls, from which the tasseled
ends hung down to her shoulders.
do not think I am vain or silly
because ! love beautiful clothes"
said Mrs. Anthony to-day. They
are a passion with me. 1t is my
greatest delight to pl3n new gown
ar search for becoming hat"

. Q Q O o @ Q Q o Q Q q Q Q q

One hundred and three years ago
Monday. Feb.12, in primitive little
log cabin on the outskirts of the
wilderness of Kentucky, a scrawny,
homely baby was born upon whom
the gods smiled. To the ambitious,
the industrious and the enterpris-
ing of future ages, the career of that
lowly babe of the forest clearing,
from woodsman to President, is an
admOnition that poverty and obscur-
ity are no handicap to the conquest
of life's big prizes. Instead of be-
ing an obstacle to his development,
poverty was to Lincoln an incentive
which time quickened as he began
to realize that responsibility uner-
rinely gravitates to the man best
able to assume it.
In this, Lincoln's rise from the
humble lot of a rail-splitter to that
of ore of the stirring characters in
history,is emphasized anew the fact,
now everywhere recognized, that no
hovel. however lowly, is any more
safe from the visitation of talent
than it is from lightning.
Lord Nelson, England's greatest
sea fighter, was once a waiter; Crom-
we'll, relentless foe OF royal tyrants,
a farmer; Patrick Henry, orator and
patriot, = bartender; Herschel, one
of the worlds greatest scientists, a
fiddler; the immortal Dickens, a
chore boy in a shoe-blacking facto-
ry, and Verdi, composer extraordi-
nary, a grocer's errand boy. Only
the man who has come up from the
bottom understands the feelings of
those below and possesses those
keen sympathies which make him
the natural and commanding lead
er. Lincoln knew the masses as no
other President ever knew them,
and his single desire was to serve
them usefully.
Modern politicians. covetOus for
power. can profit by his modest pro-
test on departing for Washington
to assume the Presidency, that he
was already sick of onice-holding.
Keep the old sign on the door"
he said to William Herndon, his law
partner for Is years, as he left his
3ingy little Office at Springfield for
the last time. EFF | live (the gem
oval impression was that he would
be assassinateD I'm coming back
some time, and then we'll go right
on practicing law as if nothing had
ever happened"
In a republic governed with the
consent of the governed, could there
Ne anything more intensely human
than this frank confession that, af-
ter all, his heart was with the peo-
pie AZ home, who knew that he was
not the monster his enemies had
pictured him? The bullet Of the
assassin, J, Wilkes Booth, put an end
to all that was mortal of Lincoln,
Jul MS SplilN sun SOeS marching
on, an inspiration and a benediction
to the depressed and hopeless of all
notions. 1t is one of the compensa-
tons of the truly great that the
good in them is remembered and
that what seemed calamity to
those who did not understand them,
is often in reality a boon. The
South thought the freeing of the
slave spelled its industrial and eco
nomic ruin, yet it produces to-day
cotton of an annual value of ST.

600 in Currency
AND ESCAPE WITH THE MONEY
Bank Messengers in Charge

NEW YORK HoLD-UPs EPIDEMIC


New York, Feb. 16.-Twenty-five
thousand dollars in currency was
stolen from a taxicab in the heart OF
the financial district this morning
by two progressive highwaymen,
who sprang into the vehicle and ov-
empowered w. F. Smith and Frank
Wardell, messengers of the East
River National Bank at $50 Broad
way.
Both messengers were badly in
jured and the robbers escaped with
the money--S15, 900 in five-dollar
bills and $4,000 in one-hundred-
dollar bills. The currency was be-
ing transported from the Produce
Exchange Bank in the lower part of
the city.
The taXicab had proceeded up
Broadway without mishap when for
some unexplained reason the chauf-
feur turned west on Rector street
into Church street, skirting the side
and rear of Trinity church yard.
About midway OF the old ceme-
terry three men sprang from the
curb. One jumped on the chauf-
feur's seat, the other two got into
the vehicle. The man on the seat
pressed revolver i'm his overcoat
pocket against the side of the chauf-
feur, Gino Martini, and commanded
him to drive swiftly on without
making an cutlery.
Inside the vehicle the two rob-
bers were belaboring the bank mes
sengers over the head. Smith, one
of the messengers, is sixty-one years
old, and he was bleeding and almost
unconscious when the taxicab reach
ed Park Place, a few blocks north.
Wardell was badly beaten about the
head, but not seriously hurt.
At Park Place the highwaymen
jumped from the taXicab, bearing a
tin box which they had wrested
from the messengers and which CON
tanned the currency. In flash they
had sprung into a big black auto
mobile, which seemed to be await
ing their coming, and were quickly
lost i'm the maze of traffic.
Martini. the taXicab chauffeur,
continued to run his machine until
he found policeman, when he
gave the alarm and the two injured
messengers were taken to a police
station. Smiths condition was so
serious that he was removed to a
hospital. Wardell's scalp was badly
lacerated, but because of his youth,
he stood the fight we'll
Hold-ups and money snatching
games have become almost epidemic
in New York in the past few weeks.
Preceding to-day's taXicab affair by
scarcely an hour, two young men
armed with revolvers attempted to
rob the jewelry establishment of
Barrett Nemets in Broom street.
The jeweler showed fight grappled
with the intruders, and when they
fed, fired several shots at them,
which were returned.
One of the men escaped, the other
was captured. He gave the name of
Max Silver, seventeen years old. A
revolver with five exploded cart
ridges in the cylinder was found in
his pocket.
Earlier in the day burglars al
most wrecked q private bank in
Elizabeth street. on the East Side, in
attempting to open the safe. They
secured no booty.
