to New York in race with the stork.
that her child might be born on
American soil. Mrs Herman II.
Harjes and her husband. who accom-
panied her on the trip. are receiving
the congra tulations of their friends,
following the birth of a son at the st.
Regis hotel. The race was won by
Mrs. Harjes, with six hours to spare.
The explanation of Mrs. Harjes' trip
is not a complex one, but is worthy of
record.
The mother of the latest addition to
the Harjes family IS. an American by
birth. having been Frederica Ber-
wind of Philadelphia before her mar
riage. The father. who is a member
of the Paris banking house of Drexel,
Harjes & Co. is a native of France,
but has become a naturalized citizen
of this country. and thereby hangs
this tale.
The parents of the recently well
coined heir live in Paris part of the
year They wished their son to be a
true American, so, when the time for
the momentous event drew near, they
wished to avoid any complications
which might arise relative to his citi-
zenship, so hurriedIy engaged steam
ship passage to this country.
Then began the ocean race which
