Searchino for Hidden VIII.

The romantic story of hidden Will
is arousing keen interest in the neigh
borhood of Bradley Fold, little vii
Iage three miles from Bolton, Lanca-

woman from Gunnersbury London.
She believes that if she succeeds IN
her quest, she will become entitled to

prompted originally by statements
made by a medium at spiritaalistic
seance. The will is supposed to be
concealed in a wall sunk in a shed
which has been bricked up for many
years. 1t formed cellar to an OLD

tor, John Bradley, who married MS
housekeeper, was known to possess
great wealth. No will could be found

Authority Gives a List Of Those Which
She Advises Girls to Give Up
or Avoid.

Miss Elizabeth Burchenal, inspector
of athletics for the board of education
of New York city, who recently made
a study of athletics for girls, with the
object of determining what kind of
athletics are really helpful to girls,
and what kind harmful, has inter
viewed forty women, all graduates OF

whom have had either practical expe-
rience in athletics or else opportunities

statements and of her own experience
she has listed as condemned athletics
for mature girls the broad jump, the
high jump in competition and pole
Naulting, and as doubtful for the mat
ture girl the high jump, running more
than 100 yards in competition and
weight throwing. For the immature
girl the condemned athletics are run
ming more than 100 yards, pole vault
ing and weight throwing, and the
doubtful athletics are basket ball and
field hockey.

coasting, dancing, field hockey, golf,
horseback riding, cross and side sad
die, indoor baseball which is played

DEER RACE 4 TROLLEY CAR
Three Of Them Aruss the Passengers
on IN Interburban Line In
Connecticut.

Passengers on the car leaving this
city one afternoon we're treated to a
pretty sight at the rock cut below
Egypt Brook on the Derby line when
three large deer raced ahead of the fast
running car for over 500 yards, leav-
ing the tracks when the car got so
close that the fender touched the
hind legs of the last deer.
Motorman j. l.. Mcclure came upon
the deer suddenly as the car rounded
a sharp turn in the rock cut and
sounded his gong. The deer stood
still for a moment and MCGUIRE put
on his brakes, as he was afraid that
he would strike them. He blew the
air whistle and the three were oE in a
jiffy, running ahead of the car at full
speed Mcclure then followed while
the passengers aboard the car
crowded into the front end to watch
the deer They ran gracefully to-
gether, but could not get off the tracks
as there is a very steep declivity on
the right hand side and the bank ran
up too steep on the left to permit them
to get off the right Of way.
Finally they came to a spot where
they could leave and one after the
other they jumped into the under
brush on the uphill side. The last
deer fingered so long by the side Of
the track that the fender brushed it's
heels as it leaped aside.
Two of the deer were fair sized
while the third was one of the largest
seen by the trolleymen in their expert
ence along that line. Deer are rather
common in the Beacon Falls section
of the run and they are frequently
seen by early morning trolley crews
Harry Hogan, conductor Of the car
said that although he has seen many
deer on the trolley tracks in that
section, these seemed less afraid of
the car than any.-Waterbury Re

Frenchman's Song Collection.

No French president can during his
tenure of Office escape being plague
ragged, we might translate it-some-
times rather ferociously. OF this rag
ging M. Fallieres has certainly had his
full share. 1t appears that he takes
it all in the best spirit. He has even
collected all the songs that have been
written about him, and in the evening
after dinner he sometimes asks one of
his intimate friends to sing selections
from the fat volume they make. He is
said to derive a good deal of quiet
amusement from a study of the faces
of his orderly officers when the song
is more than usually personal and out
spoken.
