Furthermore It was at that season OF
the year when not only the feminine
mind, but the masculine mind also,
was focused on the subject OF hats.
Under these conditions was Mr.. Slemp
obliged to run the gauntlet amid the
volley Of none too sympathetic que
ries.
This may serve as notice to anyone
who has by mistake walked away with
a size seven and three-quarters hard
boiled" hat, derby Of late design and
good quality, that 1t should be re-
turned at once to Congressman Slemp.
Said hat has associated with 1t GER
tain memories-besides costing five
dollars.
Therefore are we justified in the
suggestion that a hat-rack and cloak
room be established at the White
House Then the visitor can receive
his check, emblazoned with the seal
of the government, and can feel some

DOG SLEUTH REVEALS MURDER
Canine Found Barking Beside the
Body Of an italian In
PlsasantVIlle.

White Plains, N. Y.--Following the
discovery Of the body OF an unidenti-
fed man in a lake on Ophir Farm,
the country place Of Whitelaw Reid,
on the outskirts of White Plains, last
week, the body Of another man who
had been murdered was found in a
lonely part of Pleasantville. Coroner
Squires and Sheriff Doyle we're unable
to find anything to indicate the iden-
tity of the body found.
The man, who had been dead long
time, had two stab wounds in the
neck. 1t is believed that both men
were italians. The body at Pleasant
vile was found by Charles Rhoades,
who was attracted to the wood in
which it lay by the barking of dog.
The dead man was lying on his back.
AS soon as Mr.. Rhoades came to the
body the dog ran away and has not
been seen since. AS there were no
signs of a struggle 1t is supposed the
man was murdered in some other
place and the body brought to the
spot where it was found. Hundreds
of Italians are employed in the con.
struction of the new Catskill aque.
duct in Westchester county, and it is
possible, the authorities say, that the
two murdered men may have been
members of the construction gang.

Bell "Peeved" Uncle Sans Young Men

tioneer on a charge Of disorderly con-
duct. While the warrant was being
sworn out in police court, however,
Assistant Corporation Counsel Gus A.
Schuldt considered the case and rem
dered a decision to the effect that the
auctioneer was not liable to prosecu-
ton for the ringing Of the bell.
The warrant was not sworn out, but
Capt. Michael Byrnes, of the Sixth
precinct, visited the auctioneer and
explained to him how he was uncon-
sciously interfering with the work Of
Uncle Sam and slowly demoralizing
the patent ONCE. Tears came to the
eyes of the auctioneer at the thought
Of having caused Uncle Sam mo-
ment's trouble, and in broken words
notified the captain that 1t would be
unnecessary to arrest him, for he
would discontinue the ringing of the
obnoxious bell at once.
So the bell will ring no more. That
is, during patent office hours. But up
to one minute of nine in the morning,
and after 4:31 o'clock in the after
noon, the bow-legged wielder Of the
massive bell will jangle 1t in man.

W shovel" exclaimed Sunny jim
Sherman, vice-president Of the United
States, the other day as he stood on
the lawn of the capitol and cast a
critical and experienced eye at a hole
in the ground six feet in diameter and
three feet deep. In the hole stood a
small tree, destined to be known as

was there for the purpose Of perform
ing the historical business Of planting
IT, An attendant had just handed the
vice-president a small spade, child

this implement a maE-size shovel
with a rounded bit and a long handle
was placed in his hands, and If they
had not stopped him he would have
filled in the hole in few minutes.

asked him to deslst after he had
thrown a few shovelfuls into the aper.
