DESERT LURE FATAL
Chicago Woman Ventures Too
Far Into Sahara.
Taken Far on Litter-EnaIIsh Mls.
slonarles Minister to Dying Amerl-
III When the French Deny
Her Needful Aid.

Chicago dramatic account Of the
death Of May Airport, the Chicago
pianiste, In q lonely sun-baked town
on the edge of the Sahara desert, Ia
told In mails received by her friends
In Chicago. Brief mention was made
OF Miss Allport's death in the Chicago
newspapers Of April 20. She had ex-
pired In Sfax, Tunisia, on April 10, and
had been buried the following day.
Miss Airport left Chicago some
years ago to travel in Italy. She spent
a large part of her time at the little
town Of Taormina, under the shadow
of Mount Aetna and close to the ex-
qutsite classical remains which draw
many strangers to Sicily. In March Of
the present year Miss Airport went
alone across the Mediterranean from
Palermo to Africa.
From Tunis she went along the
coast to Susa, thence inland to Kaira-
wan, Gafsa, and Tozeur (Tozer):
thence to Sfax on the gulf Of Gabes.
and thence she ventured, in company
with a casually met Englishwoman-
too far into the desert-to Gabes at
the lower end of the gulf, called by
the ancients Syrtis Minor.
Here, among the Arabs and Italian
sailors and merchants, she was taken
too sick to return unaided, and here
her companion left her. Fortunately
The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1913-08-21

an English doctor-his name is
Thomas G, Churcher-journeyinS with
his wife through Gabes from Sfax to
the oasis Of M%edenine, heard of the
American IN sick at the little
French Hotel des Colonies and came
to her rescue.
Recognizing the serious character Of
her illness, he called in the post sur
geon as a consultant and e%ndeavored
to secure her admission to the French
army hospital. Failing in his effort,
rather than desert a woman in dis
tress, he secured a covered automo-
bile, fitted 1t with a comfortable mat
tress, and carried her back with him
to his W home in Sfax-a distance
Of nearly 100 miles.
On reaching the home of this Eng
lishman-he and his wife are medical
missionaries-she seemed brighter for
the change and full of gratitude, but
the long journey over the desert
proved too much for her, and she died
while her missionary friends prayed
by her bedside.
She was buried in Sfax, in the
French cemetery, until such a time as
the French colonial department will
issue a permit for the removal Of her
body to her own country.
Since 1875 Miss Allport's figure and
influence were well known in the Chi
cago musical world, She was one Of
the founders of the Amateur Musical
club, and until 1911 was one of the
most popular contributors to it's pro.
grams.
For many years she was also the
moving spirit in the musical programs
OF the F%ortnightly and the Little
Room. Her musical education was
commenced under the best European
masters, and in 1871 she enjoyed the
privilege of listening to Franz List
at his own home in Weimar.

COULD NOT BE "PENTAGoN'
Mild Man Was Nowhere Near Solution
OF Welehty Question That Had
Bothered Him.

Late one mild spring night a slight
ly tipsy man slowly took himself out
Of the open door Of a fruit store. He
hated to go because he had to leave
a weighty problem unsolved. And
what was worse, he felt sure he was
near the answer to the riddle
warm" as the children say in their
games.
mo, it isn't 'pentagon,' he solemnly
declared. That's neal it, but it isn't
the word. It's about the same thing,
but there's another name for it. And
l can't remember" he added, what
it is."
What was that fellow talking
about?" inquired a new customer who
heard enough, as he came in, to excite
his curiosity. What was he trying
to get at?"
I'VE were trying to decide" an
swered another man in the room,
what the name would be if five chill
dren were born at the same time.
Two, you know, are twins and three
are trplets. but we couldn't think what
five would be-"
WELL" said the newcomer, "four
are bankruptcies. and by analogy five
should be called %quintuplets, six sex.
tuplets, sever septulets, eight octu-
plets and so on. But never any 'pen.

Among the scores of replies to the
question What constitutes the ideal
woman for a Wife," which a Hanford,
Cal, citizen Of inquiring mind SEM
broadcast among the young men of
that city, the following was consid-
cred the best:
"The ideal woman for a wife should
have these qualifications: The voice
of Melba, the talent of Paderewski,
the figure of Venus. the grace of a
sylph, the ~vivacity Of a coryphee, eyes
like the soft glow of a moonlight eve,
an alabaster-like complexion, the vir,
tues Of a nun, the charm Of Cleopatra,
the meekness Of Moses, the patience
OF Job, the forbearapce of Lazarus,
the zeal Of a Trojan, the constancy Of
Caesars wife, the capabilities of a
charwoman, the purse Of Hetty Green,
and hair of her own"
