Astor House curTos.

NEW YORK, June 13.-Curio hunt
ers and their representatives from all
over the country gathered here today
to bid for the famous old Aston house
belongings. Besides the professional
curio buyers and sellers there was a
goodly number of private collectors on
hand to bid for the effects and furn-

famous old hosiery in the United
States.
Among some of the relics placed I'M
der the hammer today we're chairs
which furnished the suite of rooms in
which the late King Edward, then
Prince of Wales, occupied. The furn-
ishings of the suite occupied by the
Grand Duke Alexis of Russia, and
many articles OF furniture in the suites
occupied at various times by Henry
Clay, Zachary Taylor, the famous
Jenny Lind, Fenimore Cooper Walt
Whitman, Winfield Scott. Edgar Allen
Poe, Andrew Jackson and other celeb
rites were placed under the hammer
today Still other curios to be auc-
toned today were the furnishings of
the dining room in which every
president of the United States since
the civil war with the exception of
President Taft have taken meals. 1t
had been hoped by curio seekers that
the old registers in which were writ
T ten the names of the famous person
ages who stopped at the Aston House,
would be auctioned off but these, it
lit was said, would be retained by the
Aston estate at the request of Vincent
Astor, the young head of that long line

ROME, June1S.-The national coun-
ell of women today made formal pro-
test to the government for alleged dis
elimination against Signora Lancelot
Croce in a recent government comps
tition for artistic designs for the new
mint The work submitted by Sig
nora Croce won for her the appoint
ment of head engraver of the mint.
Later she was notified that she could
not have the place, as the position,
entailing grave responsibility and dis
cipline, was declared to be too much
for a woman to fill. The National
Council of Women Is confident that
the minister CT the treasury can be in
duced to revoke the latest order and
give Signora Croce the position. If
this is done Signora Croce will have
one of the highest official positions
under the italian government occu-
/ pied by woman.

MISSOURI TOWNS TO
GET DAMS POWER
VIII Probably build Transmission
Line From Hannibal Form
Ing Stock Company to do so.

HANNIBAL, Mo-, June 13-Com-
mittees from the four cities were in
Hannibal yesterday in the furtherance
OF plans for supplying New London,
Center, Perry and frankfort with
electric lights. Indications are that
arrangements will be made very soon
by which transmission line will be
built from these towns connecting
with the distributing station south of
the city or with the Hannibal city
plant.
N. K. Wilcox, of the Mississippi
River Power company, went over the
route with the committee yesterday
in order to be able to make them an
offer of power from the dam at Keo
kuk. Word is expected from him be-
fore the end of next week. Several
persons from these towns visited
Keokuk earlier and conferred with Of
ficials there. The committee Is also
| in touch with the officials of the city
light plant and feel that with one or
the other, arrangements can be made
| by which the four towns will receive
lights.
1t is proposed to organize stock
company composed of men from the
-four towns which will build the line
to this city and purchase the cur.
trent. A local organization or office OF
the company would look after its in
lterests in each of the towns and
supervise the distribution. The city
Tor power company, whichever com
tracts with the company, would fur
nish the current, but would have
nothing to do with it's distribution.
