HAS unique salon
in DARKEST England
Mrs. Victoria Martin Brings Literary
and Theatrical Friends to
Awaken Rurals.
ORGANIZES A COUNTRY CLUB

Special Cable to The Washington Haald
London. Nov. z2--Mrs. Victoria Gala.
iyn wcodhall Martin has started unique
work in England. She lives at the Manor
House, at Bredons Norton, near Tevkes-
ter of a rural district which might be
termed one Of the darkest" in Great
Britain from the point of view Of educa-
ton and intellect
At first surprised and later Mortified
by the awful mental and spiritual dead
illness OF the place, Mrs. Martin inaugu.
rated scheme to bring few rays Of in
tellectual light into the minds of the in
habitants who. by irony OF fate, are sep
arated only few miles from the coGntry
of Shakespeare.
She formed club called the Inter
national County Salon." and, with the
aid of her literary and theatrical friends,
she set to work to improve the conditions
of those around her She gave up the
use of her beautiful house-an old Tudor
house, where oaken beams traverse the
ceilings, set in an atmosphere revelling
flowers, and filled with the peace OF the
countryside-three and four nights a week
to the laborers on the farms, and she
fitted up the ancient barn as a miniature
but modern theater.
Noted People Help
Some of the best inteIlects OF the coun-
try have readily stepped forward to help.
Some give lectures or readings; others
bring down companies who put on small
plays in a fashion anywhere acceptable.
Only the best is accepted
Mrs. Martins wonderful energy and
powers of organization pervade every
thing. She has secured the cooperation
Of England's most famous authors,
dramatists, and actors, and she has in
duced the agricultural fraternity to at
tend in hundreds. Her audiences no
longer cape. open=mouthed, at what is
set before them. They have learned to
appreciate artistic work, and the tap
room Of the village inn has been almost
put out of business. =.
1t is a tribute to the women of the
United States that an American woman
has been the first to succeed IN such an
undertaking. the difficulties Of which any
one who knows rural England can read
lily appreciate.

Mrs. William Cumming Story of
New York city was recently elected
president general of the Daughters of
the American Revolution on the third
ballot after a turbulent and prolonged
contest. The vote was 600 for Mrs.
Story to 40 for Mrs. John Miller Hor-
ton, the administration candidate. The
result which was reached after three
days balloting in a triangular fight.
was received with tremendous ap-
plause by the delegates and visitors.
The election resulted in a partial
victory for the old administration, as
more than half of the general officers
and all Of the new vice presidents gen.
eral are known as supporters of Mrs.
Scott, the retiring president. The lat
ter was elected honorary president
general, an honor only held by five
former presiding officers Of the So
ciety.
The new president has taken a prom
inent part in the affairs of the Daugh-
tiers of the American Revolution for
ten years. She was elected regent Of
the New York state chapter on April
%. 1908, after a fractional struggle In
1909 and again in 1911 she made an
unsuccessful run for the president gen.
eral. Mrs. Story formerly was presi-
dent Of the Federation Of Women's
Clubs. She will live at the national

hunt. was taltinG 20 his Office over the
telephone, he WAS asked how IL was that
Lopez could set around TO ali the tun-
nels and bulkncads where no has been
heard In the past forty eight hours
Simple enough replied the reporter
Lopez has secured four wheels and the
axles or one Of those ore cars in the
mine. He puts his feet over one axle and
takes the other IN his hands. Then. on
the tracks in the r5r!ous tunnels ne
travels along at the rate OF about forty
miles an hour.
The reason the rapping was heard or
the 700 oClkhead yesterday morning was
because Lopez and his improvised run
about were going so fast es he neared
