SaIutationsI

Soon after Oliver P Newman was
appointed by the president last sum
mer as one of the commissioners Of,
the District of Columbia, he and his
fellow commissioner, Mr.. Siddons.
went to the Gettysburg reunion
AS the two men came into sight OF
the soldiers, cannon began to go on.
The noise was earsplitting. Every,
time a gun popped, Newman jumped
at least a foot in the air. He was
gun-shy. Finally, the fuss was too
much for him. He glared at the artil-
1ery, frowned at the officers, and
scowled at the privates. Then be
turned to Siddons and asked angrily:
What in thur der is all that dad
blamed noise about?"
Later somebody explained to him
that, as commissioner of the District
of Columbia held the rank a gov
ernor of state, he was being given
the governors salute of seventeen
guns
Then" he said, with evident relief.

CHRISTMAS GIFT FOR HOSPITAL
Deceased Head of Northwestern Iron
and Metal Company Leaves 40 Per
Cent of His Estate to Chicago and
Kenosha Institutions.

Kenosha and Chicago institutions of
a charitable nature will receive a large
portion of the estate of the late Max
Rosenblum, former president of the
Northwestern Iron and Metal Company,
who died a week ago at Phoenix, Ari-
IONA and whose will was fled for pro-
bate in the county court here this
morning. The value Of the estate is
placed at $4,000 and under the will
$4,000 is distributed among institu-
tions. Mr.. Rosenblum during his life
time had taken a great interest in
Jewish charitable institutions in CHI
cago and the bulk of the money set
aside for charity is left to these insti-
tutions The Kenosha hospital, how
ever, is given a notable gift, the will
providing that five per cent of the net
estate be paid to the directors of the
hospital association. No provision is
made for the expenditure Of the fund,
the directors being given the right to
use it in any way they may see fit for
the advancement Of the hospital. Dur
ing his life time Mr.. Rosenblum has
made several smaller gifts to the hos
pital and he had been deeply interested
in its growth. Among the Chicago in
stitutions named are the Nathan Marks
Orphans Home, the Jewish Shelter
home, Orthodox Old Home B. M. T., and
the Jewish National Fund Of Palestine.
These four institutions will divide
thirty-fve per cent of the net estate.
Provision is made for the widow, Mrs.
Minnie Rosenblum, who is given the
use of the homestead and thirty per
cent Of the property, both real and
personal, with the understanding that
she is to dispose of it as she sees fit at
her death. A bequest is made to a
brother, Louis Rosenblum, and to a
niece, the latter being with the reser-
walton that the young woman marry in
the Jewish faith. No bequest is made
to J. D. Rosenblum or Anne Friedman,
it being understood that these two
heirs to the estate had been provided
for before the death of the testator.
The will was made in July of this
year and under it HI. B. Robinson of
Kenosha and Israel Levin of Chicago,
will act as executors. The petition
states that the personal property of the
estate is valued at $4,000 and the real
estate at $4,000.

The skirt is close fitting with a little
drapery at one side made by three
plaits sewed in at the seam. The
sleeves are set in, and just an easy
fitting straight pattern fulled in at the
cuff.
Worn with the suit is a chic and
saucy hat 1t is turban in which the
drapery has been shaped into wide
faring wings of velvet. They are sup
ported by wires. There is knot at the
center and the wings are in one with
the covering of the hat-a very clever
arrangement Of drapery.
There is scarf and muff of silk
plush to be worn with this costume.
When the weather is cold a guimpe
and standing collar OF net suggest pro-
lection and should be worn at the
neck. Real warmth is afforded by the
scarf. which 3 fat and long and can
be wrapped about the throat and
spread over the chest
There is a fad for wearing a single
long-stemmed rose on the muff. With
this costume an artificial rose in
yellow or one Of the tango shades is
the right choice. None of the rose
reds look well with the color in the
waistcoat, but there are yeIlowish
pink and deep yellow roses, and those
of gold tissue which are just the
thing.

ATTRACTIONS
 AT 1.-THE THEATRES
PARK THEATRE
HOW THEY MADB THE .oUo VA
 DIs'' LION FILM.

HOW THEY MADE THE "QUO VA
 DIs'' LION FILM.
 In the wonderful photo-drama pro ductions of Quo Vadis'' which is the attraction at the Park theatre all this week is a scene showing a number of lions advancing across wide arena toward a despairing group of men, women and children. The picture is one of the most thrilling in the play Lions let loose on defenseless peopleI Impossible! They would tear them to pieces. The picture itself gives this impression, for in one part the lions are seen among a heap of what looks like mahgIed bodies. As a matter of fact no one was hurt, although the lions advanced to within a few yRrds of the group. This picture H. Illustrates the advantages the camera has over the eye in the matter of spectacular scenes. It would be inn stage, but the camera can SO deceive the eye that it Is unable to detect between seeming and actual occur renee. w. J. Faulkner explains how this picture was made. The lions used for the scene belonged to party of lion tanners, some of whom were in the group of people to be attacked. While some of the tanners drove the lions forward, themselves out of the range of the camera, other tanners stood In the group, ready with revolv- CTS to frighten the beasts. At the critical moment the revolvers were fired, all but one of the lions bolted- the one having to be driven away the camera was stopped, and the arena cleared. Then dummy bodies were scattered about the camera, the lions were driven to the spot, and the cam era was set to work again. By dex- terous1y cutting the film and joining it the transition in the picture from the advance of the lions to the death of the victims seemed to the eye short that it's was impossible to detect the actual break, which really occu- pied some hours. The illusion was made all the more perfect by showing pictures of the audience watching with apparent enjoyment the scenes sup posed to be going on in the arena.

It would make the town more attra ctive for summer patrons and would not disturb our sleep.
