Amelia G. Barr.
Although not a native American,
Amelia E. Barr has so long lived in
this country and is so widely regarded
an American novelist that a sketch of
her life finds a place here.
Amelia Edith Huddleston was born
at INVERSION, Lancashire, England, in
1881. She was educated in the schools
of Glasgow and graduated from the
Glasgow high school. In 1850 she mar
ried Robert Barr, the son Of a Scot
fish clergyman, and came to America
with him in 1854. They resided in
Texas until his. death in 1857.
Mrs. Barr removed to New York,
where she began her literary work.
she MADE a study OF the Dutcn uHleS
of early New York and for the most
part her work depicts that epoch in
Gotham's history.
In 1886 she wrote one Of her most
appealing novels, Jan Vedder's Wife.
The next e appeared what Is per-
haps her best known book, A Bow Of
Orange Ribbon. In 1883 she wrote Re
member the Alamo. Another beautiful
story from her pen was entitled Trim
ity Bells. written in 1899.
In 1900 Mrs. Barr left Now York
city and retired permanently to her
country home at Cornwall-on-the-
Hudson, where she is spending the
evening of her days. Among her last

had entered into an agreement to re-

The heavy loss of life and the reverses
of the engagement seem more ap-
propriate because the conflict was not
with a hereditary enemy or directed
against a nation against which there
vas a real grievance, but against a
country the rights of which were not

Duchess Of Marlborough As Chang.

Duchess of Marlborough AS Chang.
At the Chinese ball given in. her
honor by her mother, Mrs. o. H. P.
Belmont, the Duchess Of Marlborough
appeared as Lady Chang, consort Of
one Of the greatest emperors Of the
Ming dynasty. How the lovely God
dess Chang, as she was known in the
palace, would have wondered, even in
the midst of her trouble, could she
nave forseen that almost 800 years
after her death, the robe which she
chose to in die in should be duplicated
for a festal occasion in a and of which
she, probably, had v even heard.
The Annals and Memoirs of the Court
of Pekin (by E. Backhouse and j, o. p.
Bland) gives a dramatic account Of
her life and the ann Of her death.
| When the dynasty vas oVerthrown,
the emperor sent her q message bid
ding her commit suicide, but in the
| tumult and confusion n messenger
failed to reach her n the rebels
found her alive in the Palace Of Bene-
VIOLENT Old Age. A list Of all the wom-
en- in the palace was given to Ii Yen,
| q. licentiate of Honan Providence. See
ing the senior empress name at the
| head of the list, he sighed deeply and
said, How dare these Wretched
| eunuchs desecrate her majesty's name
in this way? She stands too high for
such disgrace. I, who come from her
| own province, must save her from this
outrage"
So he hurried into the palace, and
on finding her, babe two handmaidens
lead her to one of the throne rooms
where he assisted her to, mount the
dais. Ii Yen then dressed himself in
court robes and made obeisance before
her nine times. Placing her in the
charge Of attendants, he hurried. away
to find Ii Tzu-ch'eng. That same
evening she succeeded in killing her
self. When they found her body, she
was attired in black silk with golt
embroidery and full sleeves; her fac'
was yelled with yellow crepe and hel
hair neatly dressed; she looked like
woman of 80. Those who saw tn
serenity Of her face felt as If SOM
heavenly visitant lowered near then
so happy was she in her death.

cent Of the total vote.
Should the Progressives not cast
five per cent OF the total vote as indi-
Gated ahoye then in 1916 they would
not have the privilege Of voting for the
