Fifty Yard. on the Had.

The curious inter shaped headdress
worn by women of quality in Spain
during the middle ages is described in
1.-THE Queens of Aragon," by q. L.
Miron. 1t consisted of an undercoif
with plated edges. covered by a Sec
ond resembling a Phrygian or Cata-
Ian cap. the fat point falling over like
that Of nightcap. These miters, sup
posed to be of oriental origin, were In
troduced into Spain by Beatrice OF
Suabia, queen of Ferdinand, the saint
Of CASTLE. Very hot and heavy they
must have BEEN considering that
sometimes as much as City yards OF
material were used to make them.
They were fastened under the chin by
a ribbon or band. The same writer
refers to the silver bed ladders used
for climbing into the high medieval
beds.

STRONG TO BE CANDIDATE
FOR COUNTY TREASURER

c. A. Strong, superintendent o.
schools OF New Plymouth, was 4
business visitor in Caldwell Mon
day. Mr.. Strong was caller at
The Tribune Office and stated that
if nothing unforeseen happened he
would be a candidate for the Repub-
lican nomination for county treas
urer at the primary election. Read
ers of The Tribune will remember
that Mr.. Strong was candidate for
the same position at the last cleo
ton but was defeated for the nomi-
nation.
He is a strong, forceful man. For
five years he has been superintend
ent of schools at New Plymouth
This one fact deliniates the charac-
ter of the man much better and
clearer than anything we might say
In addition he has had more or less
business training and experience.
We consider Mr.. Strong one oil
the best men in the county for the
Office he seeks.

Tho Bell Rird.

The most remarkable thing in con-
nection with the bell bird is its power
full voice. It utters a clear metallic
note that can be heard at distance Of
three miles. Its noise is like that pro-
duced by a blacksmith striking his an
vii. Sometimes 1t repeats Its notes In
quick succession, sometimes at fairly
long intervals There Is no mistake
about the voice of this bird; 1t Is loud
and piercing and would be heard
above the din produced by every in
mate Of the zoo raising its voice at
once. Except for a space of naked
skin on the throat and around the
eyes, which during the breeding sea-
son is of green color, this bird is pure
white. The contrast between the sex
es In the bell birds Is extreme. for,
while the male is pure white. the fe.
male is brownish green. Darwin re-
fers to the bell bird when he points
out that "white is a very rare color in
terrestrial species of moderate size
and inOfrensive habits" Pail Mall Ga.

this city is building on Potomac Park
and elsewhere.
The Ferguson when she had but two
sticks was a frequent visitor here with
lumber and other cargoes. About a
year ago her owners found she was
rather large for a two-master and de-
cided to remodel her and install three
masts. This was done. and it is stated
the change has made her stand up
better under q load and to be a better
craft in every way.
This is the first time the vessel has
been in port here since 1911. when she
brought lumber from bay point. The
craft was built at Sharptown, Md, in

Mrs. Lucille B. Frick.

The utter helplesSneSS OF Il tiny child
six weeks old. won it's mothers suit
for Its custody, in the District Supreme
Court, late yesterday afternoon without
testimony of witnesses or argument of
counsel. When Justice Stafford had
seen the little one, wrapped in a heavy
baby blanket to protect it from the
cold blasts of the wind which entered
the courtroom through two large win
dows, he Immediately notified Attorneys
Charles a. Douglas and Howard Boyd,
counsel for the father. that it would
take strong reasons to make him part
mother and Il child of such tender
age.
The fathers lawyers then agreed with
Crandal Mackey, attorney for the moth
er, that the baby should be given into
her charge and that hearing on her
writ of habeaS corpus should be post
poned indefinitely and subject to two
days notice of counsel if the father
should wish to disturb the arrange
ment.

habeas corpus against her husband.
George F. Prick, an employe of the
bureau of statistics of the Department
of Agriculture. The wife claimed that
she had refused to sign some papers
requested by her husband and that IN
revenge he had taken possession of the
infant and was hiding it from her. The
writ was allowed by the court and

the father and child.
