INDEPENDENT QUITS

The Nymore Independent, which
was established about three months
ago by Andrew Rood, may be pub
lished no longer according to word
received here from a twin city ma
chinery house. At the time the Inde-
pendent was started, one payment
was made on the machinery and the
company kept title by chattel mort
gage. Notice of the foreclosure of the
mortgage was given today. 1870
It is understood that one Of the
business men of Nymore was back Of
the paper and that he may continue
it with dad" Palmer in charge.

Cooking and 4 College Education.
You may have met some academic
damsel or other who, in her zeal over
Greek particles or the carbohydrat
has no conception of the difficulties of
. cook or the tactful management of
Z parlor maid. But these disabilities
are also found among the ignorant.
David Copperf1eld's Dora was no
scholar, and yet contrived to be very
inefficient housekeeper The practical
wisdom of life is neither impaired
nor conferred by higher education.
Nor conferred-that is at the moment
the important point. As a matter Of
Justice it is worth while to insist that
the erudite woman is just as likely as
her Ounce Of cousin to manage pri-
zvate and domestic affairs with sue
cess. But do not be deceived. She
ID no more likely. =

Hosts Of people are flocking to this
city and there is turmoil of excite
ment as the final preparations for the
first Democratic inauguration in six
teen years are completed. The inau-
guration committee met at midnight
last night to perfect the arrange
ments for the pageants and fireworks
which are to mark the celebration.
William J. Bryan, who is generally
agreed upon as the next secretary of
state, arrived in Washington this
morning and was one of the first to
meet "Mr." Wilson. The PRESIDENT
elect insisted upon being called "Mis-
ter" Wilson today as he resigned as
governor of New Jersey Saturday and

demonstration in the worlds history
Suffragettes literally captured the
capital. They all but overshadowed
the inaugural ceremonies tomorrow
From all parts of the country and
from distant lands, every conceivabl
class of women was represented
every type, every profession, every
age-from Baby Harvey w. Wiley,
Jr., son of the former chief chemist,
and being early educated in equal suf-
frage by his parents, to Miss H. NJ
Young, the eighty-seven-year-old
pioneer in the equal rights move
ment.
1t was the overwhel Ginning culmina-
tion of fifty-five-year battle for bal
lots in the United States. It was both
protest against disinfranchisement
and vivid, dignified, elaborate de-

There were three distinct features
to the demonstration-the parade, a
series of tableaux on the treasury de-
partment steps, and, tonight, a series
Of mass meetings.
That today's demonstration was

keynote forced home to all observers.

Army Had Arrived.

Women "hikers" came from New
York, Baltimore, Richmond and other
nearby cities. The largest was Gen.
Rosalie Jones and her footsore fem
mime "army'' which completed its trip
from New York, begun February IL.
On the crack cavalry horse of the
army, Mrs. r. c. Burleson, wife of
Lieutenant Burleson, of the army, act
ed as grand marshal. A score OF fam
GUS horsewomen, including huntswo-
men from Virginia and Maryland,
were assistant mounted marshals.
While the parade was forming, tab
leaux at the south front of the treas
ury was being enacted. The signal
of the start of the parade was relayed
block by block UP from the Peace
Monument by heralds. Their mega
phones were gilded in imitation of
herald's bugles, and all were dressed
in costume.
AS the procession slowly swept up
up Pennsylvania avenue, Miss Milhol-
land frequently sounded the triumph

purple and yellow banner was sus-
pended from her trumpet.
Behind Miss Milholland marched
ten ushers, carrying yellow and blue
pennants, and wearing light blue and
gold caps and gowns.
A woman's band of fifty pieces fol-

Then came floats denoting the
countries in which women have whole
or partial suffrage. Before them was
carried a banner labeled "Women of
the World Unite'' The first float
represented Norway. Mrs. Knute Nell
son, wife of the Minnesota senator,
was the central figure on this float,
seated amidst a miniature forest of
waving Norwegian pine trees. Other

drawn by caparisoned horses, were
Finland, New Zealand, and Australia.
Each bore in large figures the date
upon which women were given suf-
frage in these countries. On them

spective national costumes.

Newport. Aug. 2i-Ambassador George
Bakhmeteff and Nine. Bakhmeteff OF
Russia are unquestionably the most
popular members of the Diplomatic
Corps here this summer. They are
making their headquarters, as they did
last year. at Stone Villa, in Bellevue
Avenue, directly opposite the Casino.
Both the Ambassador and Nine. Bakh-
meter are fond OF dogs, and both have
canine pets. Nine. Bakhmeteff has a
pretty little Pomeranian, while the Am
bassador has taken to French bulls, of
which breed he has two at the embassy.
One of these, Rummy by name, the Am
bassadOr has had for number of years
The other dog, Rippy, is a more recent
addition to the embassy kennels, having
been bought last summer.

Again this summer Ambassador and
Nine. Bakhmeteft have taken a promi-
nent part in the social life of this re-
sort. Their names are to be found on
the list OF guests at all the larger So
Cial affairs.
Besides, they are extensive entertain
ers themselves. Not a week has passed
since the summer headquarters of the
embassy was opened that they have not
given at least two or three informal
luncheons or dinners. Some more formal
affairs have been given at the embassy,
most Of these being largely ATTENDED,
though the Ambassador and Nine. Pakh-
meteff have not given any large affairs
as the word large" is used in Newport.
They have. however. made plans for a

FATE OF OLD ASSAY

Treasury Department officials Inter-

of Question.
BUILDING NEW YORK LANDMARK

A revival of interest among officials Of

fate of the ancient Assay Office Building
in Wall Street. in New York, is indicated
by dispatches from New York.
1t stands today. condemned and empty
deserted apparently by every one down to
the very rats, waiting simply for demoli-
tion. Since the walls and floors began to
cave and sag three years ago, the ulti-
mate fate of the building has been
thrashed out time and again between the
city and the Federal government, with
no other result than the decision that
the fine old marble facade, one of Wall
Streets oldest landmarks. is of no use
10 anybody, in its present position or any
where else, and must go.
1t is not that the architectural beauty
of the building remains unappreciated.
Livery once in a while a leading citizen is
quoted as referring to it as the most
beautiful building in New York, after the
City Hail." and sincere attempts have
been made to keep the facade, and con-
struct a new Assay Office behind it. But
the architects have said that the crack
ing and faulting of the front wall was
of too serious a nature to allow il to do
duty for a new building. and for the
same reason they have Judged it impos-
EIble or impractical TO move II away and
set it up to perform a less arduous task
on a fiTmer foundation.
The Assay Office dates from 1923. and
is the younger sister, as it were, of
the City Hall. completed some ten
years earlier. 1t is thus not more than
ninety years old, but it dates back to
a period in the worlds history when
there was such a thing as an archi-
tecturaI style. not merely an mex

Those were the days when men re-

row on top of that. and have the re-
suit look like something. Six windows
and a door below, seven windows and
four slim pilasters supporting a pedi-
ment above, that is all the Assay Office
amounts to, architecturally; yet it has
proved enough to arouse even hard
hearted old New York to regret, if
nothing more. There is not an archi-

CHANGES ASKED BY
BANKERS ARE OPPOSED
House Leaders Will Not Adopt Pro.
posed Notifications in the
Currency Bill.
MAY BE AMENDED In SENATE

According to Democratic leaders, the
; changes in the banking and currency bill
proposed by the bankers in session in
! Chicago Saturday will not be adopted by
the House. The measure may be amend
I'd in the Senate to conform in part to
| the representations of the bankers, but
the House leaders will not countenance
any notifications that are regarded as
fundamental The bankers propose that
government control be lessened and the
control of the banks be changed: that the
advisory board of bankers that is to
act in conjunction with the Federal Re
serve Board shall exercise the veto DOW
er; that a central bank be created. and
that national banks may affiliate with the
new system, instead of being required to
do so as provided in the pending bill.
The changes sought by the bankers,
in the opinion of the leaders, contemplate
the framing of a new bill. So far as
the House is concerned, there are prac-
tical difficulties in the way of compli-
ance with the wishes of the bankers.
Some of the leaders who declare that
it is impractical at this juncture to amend
the bill in the House say privately that
a number of changes doubtless will be
made in the Senate. A good many Demo-
Gratis who are supporting the bill for the
sake of harmony or regularity really OBJ

subject to confirmation by the Senate. 1t
is purely government body, and the
charge has been made that as the bill
is at present framed there is danger that
the banking system could be used for
political purposes. 1t is the general ex-
pectation that this feature of the meas
ure will receive close attention in the
Senate.
The House caucus on banking and cur
rency will be resumed today. The lead
ers expect to finish consideration Of the
bill by Wednesday at the latest They
are anxious to begin debate in the House
at the earliest possible date.
