Skeleton 100000 Years Old

New York, Dec. 1.-THE skeleton
of the glyptodont, recently discovered
in Mexico, arrived at the Museum of
Natural History. The skeleton has
been mounted and is believed to have
been restoi ed to its normal position.
According to the estimate of natural
lists this animal roamed through Mex
leo about 100000 years ago. Only two
other specimens of this specie of glyp-
todont are known TO exist, and both
are at the National Museum at Mex
leo city. The skeleton was found
by an exploration party headed by
Barnum Brown of the American Mu-
scum of National History.

Rosary" Here
Thursday Night

"The Rosary" to be given at the
Opera House Thursday evening, De-
cember Is, deals with the lives and
fortunes of little group of people
living in the beautiful West Chester
country near New York city. The
husband is a disbeliever in all reli-
gion; his wife, a woman of serious
conviction regarding faith in the
things of life unseen. Strong in his
belief and thoroughly human, a priest
moves through the subtle story of this
play. When doubt comes and the man
and woman's lives are shattered SEEM
ingly beyond human power to repair,
this priest analyses the situation and
by the power of his faith brings both
the people, whom he loves, back to
happiness. Mingled with the darker
colors of human tragedy is vein of
natural comedy evolved from the
events which occur during the action.
In the fourth act, during the scene in
the chapel of the church, which has
been presented to Father Kelly by his
former pupil, Bruce Wilton, "The Ro-
sary" is sung. The stage settings are
unique in their way. The first occurs
in wonderfully beautiful grape ar
Dor, the second and third acts are laid
in a charming interior, showing the at
mosphere of serene home life, while
the fourth act is in the new church.

Miss Chance Entertains at Luncheon
for Miss Parker

An affair, which in respect to the par
ticular adaptation of its arrangement and
the significance of its prominence as a So
cial courtesy marked II as one of rare
brilliancy, was the elegant luncheon
given by Miss Frances Chance on Tues
day at the Hotel Bryan in honor Of Miss
Mary Ross Parker. With perfect har-
mony as to color development of every
idea. Miss Chance planned for her guests
an affair which will be very memorable
in their social calendars. Having as an
ideal setting the court of the hotel, made
even more beautiful by the arrangement
of palms, ferns and yellow chrysanthe-
NUNS in brass hanging baskets, the
beauty of the table was thus richly en-
HANGED by this background, but the dis
tinctive note in the table decoration was
to be found in the unique idea so beauts-
| fully carried out At the four corners Of
the table, which was spread with rich
Cluny lace, were lighted candles in crystal
holders whose soft light was made even
| more delicately beaded yellow shades,
and which by the mellowness OF their rays
lent to the scene pleasing attractive
ness. The place cards were miniature
dressing tables on which were spread the
| scarfs with the names OF the guests dain-
] tily embroidered in yellow. and on these

A Surprise Birthday Dinner

a very pleasant affair of the week was
a surprise birthday dinner given by Mrs.
w. l. King to her husband. The affair
was carefully planned and by the use oi
considerable strategy she managed to
keep him from suspecting anything, and
the first intimaiton he had was when he
returned home in the evening and found
the home fun of his friends and the
bountiful table all spread and in readi-
ness. The surprise made the occasion all
the more enjoyable, not only for Mr..
King, but for the invited guests. The

VOrCe Trial

Chicago, July 19.-"The friend
value highest is the one who knows
I'm weak.
"One whose friendship often prompts
her wholesome, stern reproof to
speak.
Honest virtue needs no herald; each
one knows wherein he's strong.
What we need is tried and true
friends who will tell us when we're
wrong"
This, written by Julian Gray, of st.
Louis, to Mrs. Eleanor White Treu-
holm, defendant in a suit for divorce
brought by Harry Trenholm, wealthy
board of trade broker, whom Mrs.
Trenholm declared to be lacking in
the ardent manifestations of affec-
ton she craved, furnished the main
point of evidence in the hearing of the
suit here today. An attempt earlier
in the day to effect reconciliation
having failed, number of letters
were introduced at the afternoon hear
ing.
DR.. Overton Brooks. a cousin of Mrs.
Trenholm, spoke earnestly with her
before he took the witness stand and
gave testimony with refe1snce to the
conditions cited by Mrs. Trenholm as
ground for divorce.
as it true, DR.. Brooks, that mai
may be in love with a woman and still
have an aversion for herr" asked Mr..
Wentworth on cross examination.
YES; that is true" said the physi-
clan.
DR.. Brooks was followed by DR.. Mil
ton M. Ports. DR.. Ports declared
business men were not likely to be as
effectionate as idle men and that the
GOODNESS of which Mrs. Trenholm conf
planned might be due to- his pre-occu-
patton.
THE trouble in this case is a pur >
ly mental one" he testified, 'as it is
in most cases of this kind. Science
nor medicine, nor anything l can
think of can cure it."
The suit brought by Mrs. Tren-
holm was dismissed as having been
brought without sufficient grounds.
