LOOKS LIKE NASTY WARFARE IN i
HIGH SOCIETY

An open, nasty warfare in high So
ciety circles is threatened over the
mysterious Worlds Fair fund of $751;
600, which Harlow N. Higinbotham
and Mrs. Potter Palmer are quarrel
ing over.
Higinbotham now intimated he
may start suit to compel Mrs. Palmer
to Immediately take steps to put the
money to the purpose for which it
was gathered, namely 'the perma-
nent betterment of women and chill
dren."
1t will be remembered that when
Potter Palmer died he left 100000
to which the $4,000 was to have
been added and that the whole
amount was to be used for the erec-
ton of a memorial building for wo-
men and children. ..-.
Mrs. Palmer claims that Mr.. Palm
er made it a condition that the build
ing should be on the lake front at
the foot of Randolph street and that
this was impossible through the ac-
ton of the Supreme Court.
Higinbotham in reply says this is
not so and that Palmer didn't care
where the building was erected, just
so it was put up.
But" adds Higinbotahm, eff Mrs.
Palmer is right and her late hus-
bands money can't be used, let her
say how much she'll subscribe and
we'll soon get the rest of the amount
necessary"

From youth he was a great traveller,
and his difficulty in purchasing scenes
of the places he visited was what turned
him into Il photographer himself. AS
long ago as 1865 he began a pictorial
record of the life of the nations. He
interested others in this work, and the
immense stores of photographs in the
British Museum are one direct result.
In the course of the sitting of the first
parliament of which he was a member
he took a picture of every member and
of officials and Journalists as well. He

Vanishing Chanties.

From the Boston Transcript.
We have bartered sail for steam. a
sailor for a deckhand. and chantey for
a gramophone. The best we can do is
dash here and there and get an old deep
water man, if he is not too shy, to sing
US one two before he and his songs
die together, or, failing that. to let Mr..
Frank Bullen do it for u.s. as he has just
done in a published collection Of forty
of these lays-"more than are contained
in Whalls Sea Songs, Ships and Shan
ties and the Folksong Society's Journal
together" Here is a unique body OF lit
erature perishing with the ships that gave
it birth. and here, too. is worthy e1ort
to save some of it's rough, wild beauty
from the wreck. A chantey Is no ordi-
nary song. 1t is not made. 1t grows. 1t
is fashioned out of the work and the moods
of the sea: thousand uncaught, irregu-
lar rhythms of the sea sway in it. Chan
ties are working songs not songs for di-
version after work. The form is invari-
ably that of solo and chorus. usually in
strong jocund major key; and one Gu
rious part is that with scant exceptions
in favor of the French. chantles are not
only peculiar to English-speaking peo-
pies but are about the only occupation
songs, common enough to other old ma
lions. which the English singer did sing.
That it should have been confined to the
merchant service and discouraged by the
navy did not in the days of its flower,
discourage the chantey itself. for the
merchant service was fertile seed-ground.

NATIVE LADY OF CAIRO
HAS BECOME SUFFRAGIST
Male Villagers Prevent Her Becom-
ing Governor, But She Wins
Point With Substitute.

CAIRO, July 25.-"Mabrouka," a ma
tive lady of some pretensions, has turned
suffragette. The world of Cairo is much
over the new departure. She
has deliberately applied for the post of
omdeh. or village governor, of Damallo.
The male portion of the villagers can
hardly credit the fact. But ''Mabrouka"
has at least a show Of reason on her
side In the first place. she is the richest
inhabtant of the village and pays more
taxes than anybody else. In the second
place, she is the most respected inhabi-
tant of the district and she enjoys priority
over everybody else, which. she claims,
should enable her to carry out her du-
ties to perfection.
The members of the omdeh were divid-
ed out of respect for the person of the
lady and alteration of her wealth. But
they dared not for a precedent Of so I'M
wonted character in their modest parish
and decided with great respect to decline
the honor. Nothing daunted ''Mabrouka"
proposed a substitute as subomdeh. To r
surprise, he was accepted. not as sub
omdeh. but as omdeh himself. Ma
brouka" was perfectly satisfied. as She
well knew that she would be the omdeh
in future, while her nominee held the title.

Following Ones Appetite.

Kate Epson Clark. in Leslie's.
Doctors say that this is a dangerous
thing to do. If you have hardened and
deadened the membranes of your palate
and your digestive system Dy the Excess
sive use of narcotics like tobacco or
opium or of alcoholic stimulants, of
course you cannot trust the cravings of
your degenerate appetite. But if you are
we'll and sound and fairly sensible, per-
haps the desire for any particular sort
of food or drink is as good a guide as
one could have for the proper diet
Amusing stories can be collected in al
most any company of singular experiences
in this line. One hears incredible tales
OF dying men and women who gasped out
request for fried oysters or mince pie
or something equally silly-were supplied
with the coveted dainty and proceeded to
get we'll at once
One lady recently told of a child of four
who was lying at the point of death but
who begged for pancakes and ham gravy.
one can hardly conceive of parents who
had allowed a child of that age to con-
celve fondness for those particular edi-
bles. but this one had surely become ac-
quainted with them and liked them. AS
he seemed likely to live but a few
moments in any case, he was gratifed
Smoking hot pancakes, literally enIivened
with ham gravy, were given him until his
eccentric appetite was satisfied. Then he
fell into a gentle slumber. and few DAYS
later was playing about the house as wen
as ever.

That ''Debutante Slouch.'

Kate Epson CLARK. in Leslie's-
Isn't it about time that We discarded
it, Or IS it part of the new dances,
and bound to stay long they do?
In report made TO the graduate council
of Wellesley College Miss Bertha Bailey
complains that college graduates walk
badly and stoop. Well. dear Miss Bal
ley, how can they walk well in such
skirts as Dame Fashion has handed out
to us lately? And the college girl does
not wish to be out of style. The stoop-
ing, too. is just d part of the general
''debutante SLOUGH" which all girls have
been affecting. Miss Bailey admonishes
the senior classes especially to rebel
against these unbecoming and inartistic
ways-but when millions of women, all
the leaders of fashion among them,
are against you. what can YOU do?
Don't blame the college girls. 1t is true
that they ought to he more sensible than
the uneducated. They really ought to
break away from these idiotic styles. and
inaugurate better oneS-but that is likely
to be too much for the strength of the
average college girl. The attack should
be carried higher up. When there is a
general demand for better fashions in
dress and nien, then they may come.
1t is the whole body of womanhood that
needs to be aroused. especially that APP
parentiy thoughtless and careless part of
it known as the society section" Once
get them started and Dame Fashion may
bulge.

DOCTORS HANDICAPPED.
Diplomas of Thirty Medical Colleges
Not Recognized in Many States.

From the New York Times.
The diplomas issued by thirty med
ical schools in the United States are
practically worthless on account of the
low standards of these schools, which
prevent their recognition by the state
boards. These facts are shown in a re-
port on medical schools in a recent issue
of the Journal of the American Medical
Association. which says:
In from fourteen to thirty-two states
the diplomas issued by thirty medical
schools are not recognized. In these
states the graduates of these thirty
schools are not admitted to the examina-
tons for licenses to practice medicine.
This information should receive wide
publicity, particularly in the interests Of
prospective medical students. Before Sc
lecting a medical school the student
should know whether the training fur
school will qualify him for examination
and for license to practice medicine in
any state he may choose.
The fact that recognition has been
medical colleges is not always given
publicity by state boards and, Of course.
is not published in the announcements
of the colleges affected. Some students,
therefore, have not been aware of the
conditions until they had matriculated,
or even until they had applied for a
license to practice. Hundreds of students
have entered low-grade medical colleges.
have spent large sums of money and
have devoted three or four years to
study, or have been graduated before
they learned that their diplomas were
practically worthless. This is wrong and
places lifelong handicap on these stu
dents.
Information regarding the non-recog-
milton of low-grade medical colleges by
state boards should be in the hands Of
he chooses his college. This knowledge
will enable him to avoid the serious mis-
take Of making bad start on his LIES
work. The intelligent student, thus in
formed. would certainly not waste his
time and money in a low-grade institu-
ton when in the same time and with
perhaps even less money, he could obtain
a training in thoroughly well conducted
medical school which would not only bet
ter equip him for his profession, but
would also enable him to render better
service to the people who will depend

DITTINGEN. Switzerland. July 10
The cement factory which used to be
the pride of this town, because it repre-
scented the principal industry of the
place, was blown to pieces by its owners
June 81, under the supervision of the To-
cal police. The great min had been
bought by syndicate and closed as I'M
necessary to the system. The syndicate
had to continue to pay taxes as heavy
as though the works Were in operation
and it was decided therefore to destroy
them. Charges of dynamite We're placed
under the tall chimneys and at various
places in the walls throughout the manu-
factory. The cartridges We're exploded
simultaneously by electric connections
and the whole place became mass of
broken walls and piles of brick. Some of
the townspeople cried. as they saw the
place tumble into ruins.

AMERICAN ART EXHIBITED.
Paintings by Burroughs and Lawson
on View in Paris.

Foreign Correspondence of The Star.
PARIS. July 15.-The latest addition to
the Paris art world is an exhibition of
American art by typical American
artists. The exhibitors this year are
Bryson Burroughs curator of paintings
at the Metropolitan Museum, New York.
and Ernest Lawson Of the Art Students
League. New York. The work of the
two artists is entirely different.
Lawson belongs to the futuristic-im-
pressionistic school. che palette knife
being used more extensively than the
brush. while Burroughs work. especially
his figure groups. is on the order of
mural decorations, and the influence of
Botticelli may be clearly seen in them.
Lawson. in his landscapes. has admir-
ably caught the clear American atmos-
phere. Every detail stands out in bold re-
lief: there is no softening mask of haze
or dim suggestion of figures, such as one
finds in the works of Corot and his CO.
temporares. The criticism has been
made that his colors are too striking. but
when the right perspective has been OBJ
tanned. they become diffused and soften
until they melt into harmonious whole.
