Countess Becomes Wife of Untitled American
CUPID UPSETS CUSTOM

LONDON, Dec. 13.-London society Is
giving all evidences OF enthusiasm for
the new international marriage idea as
exemplified by the recent nuptials of the
austrian Countess Camilla Hoyos and
Charles wilkins Short, Jr., Of Cincin-
natl and Boston.
Inc number of invitations that are
keeping the young people going on an
almost constant round of the most fash
lohaole homes would indicate that the
reversal OF the customary marriage-that
OF the European nobleman to the Ameri
can heiress-is welcome here.
however, the personalities of the bride
and bridegroom certainly have much TO
do with their popularity. Mr.. Short,
VINO has no title except a college degree
from Hamilton and whose career as an
architect in Boston has only Just begun.
IS greatly admired for his DISTINGUISHED
manners and manly mind. Peers hobnob
with the young American as genially as
II his fathers had been with Richard
Occur DeIion in the Crusades, instead
OF helping to make Cincinnati famous.
The Countess Camille, on the other
hand, has title that goes back through
Austrian centuries to the glorious DAYS of
SPAN supremacy, but she has also an
untitled English mother, who was Miss
Alice Whitehead, granddaughter Of Sir
Robert Whitehead, who invented the
Whitehead torpedo. Her mothers sister
n-law, Lady Beetham Whitehead, holds
a position Of distinction in London society,
and has lent her social influence to the
gentle task of making the residence in
London of her niece a memorable honey
moon.
II is expected that Mr.. Short and his
bride will sail within a few weeks for
America. where he intends to resume
his business Countess Camilla has Wis
tied America several times and has been
popular at Newport. She was the guest
of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph H. Choate at
their summer home in the Adirondacks on
two occasions.
Society is still talking of the brilliant
wedding, which took place in Holy Trim
ity church
The bridesmaids, who we're all dressed
in white, were Countess Bismarck Bar

MANS APPENDIX is
REMOVED BY BULLET

NEW YORK, Dec. 13-One of the most
remarkable surgical operations ever per-
formed in this country has been pro-
nounced by the physicians at the Flower
hospital as successful, and in consequence
John Secconde, a deputy sheriff Of Queens

The operation consisted of stitching up
Secconde's intestines, which had been
perforated fourteen times by q bullet,
which also clipped off a portion of the
appendix. When he was taken to the

DISTINCTION. Dec. 13.-Investiga-

.,crv used foods-eggs and poultry
.,sre established DIR. Mary E. Penning-
.,r.s reputation as an expert OF the
,.ri+ad states bureau of chemistry,
.,,r,rarlv called the pure food bureau.
mr. Pennington who is chief of the
u,rarrnent's food research laboratory
~ Philadelphia is one of the highest
,,r,~fsa women under civil service, and
o.. che only woman who has been placed
in charge Of one of the research lab
,r,torfes used for pure food investiga-
tons.
She receives d salary of $4,000 a year,
and has a corps of fifteen assistants.
This position has been won after seven
wars hard work for the government,
Dr Pennington having been appointed
o b,ctariological chemist in the bureau
NJ chemistry in 1905, after taking her
rost-graduate degrees from the Uni
cersity of Pennsylvania. She was pro-
NOTED to her present position four years
ago
She is making studies of eggs and
poultry. not with a view to increasing
the volume Of these farm products, but
in regard TO improved methods of con-
servauon of these articles of food by
better handling and refrigeration.
I'm her opinion, better methods must
be adopted in the handling of poultry
and eggs to protect the nations food
supply, to give more profits to the
farmer and to give the consumer an
improved grade and a more wholesome
product as a reasonable price.
According TO DIR. Pennington, careless
handling and excessive waste make the
public pay high for an inferior product.
A revolution in the industry Of produc-
ing eggs will be brought about and the
product much improved If the shippers
who gather eggs will follow the gov
eminent experts suggestions to buy by
quality and not by count.
The woman investigator estimates
that nearly half billion dollars are
spent for the eggs which are eaten by
the people of the United States each
year the farms producing more than
100000 cases of SO dozen eggs each,
In New York alone nearly 5000. 900
cases Of eggs are used each year, and
the number eaten annually by each
person is more than 80.

sented by Miss Smith originated with
the teachers of Winona, and she was
selected to give an outline of the same
before this meeting and urge favorable
consideration. The teachers retire.
ment fund is proposition whereby a
teacher during active life in order to
come under the benefits of a salary
after retirement shall pay certain
percentage of her earning capacity,
say one per cent, into this fund, the
state to make up the remainder of this
fund. No fixed. salary upon retire
ment was mentioned by Miss Smith;
she would havSit based upon the earn
ing capacity of the teacher during ac-
tive teaching life.
Miss Smith is member of the Wi
mona Teachers Retirement Fund asso-
citation. She mentioned the fact that
many of the foreign countries and
seven or eight of the states of the I'm
ion had already adopted plan where
by teachers at a certain age were placed
on the retired list. Among the more
recent states to adopt this plan is Wis
consin. Owing to this fact many of
the teachers of Winona have given up
their positions in Minnesota and gone
over into Wisconsin where they could
come under the benefits Of this retire
ment fund. s#.5s
The association was favorably inn
pressed with the proposition as made
by Miss Smith and went on record as
adopting either Miss Smiths plan or
some plan where the state through a
system of taxation could form fund
for the purpose Of pensioning teachers
after q certain age.
The Friday evening address was by
DR.. Fitzpatrick of Columbia who dis
cussed the Montessori methods. The
speaker was very plainly not in sym
bpathy with the system.
Tho grades in the New Ulm schools
held no sessions Friday and all the
teachers attended the conventions. The
High School teachers plan TO attend
the State Association meetings il
December and. therefore did not close
school Friday.
