an the street corner of Lyons, in France,
" stood Elizabeth Felix, daughter Of poor
Jewish peddler, playing the violin and sing
ing, that she might aid her sisters and broth
ers Eventually she drfted to Paris, where
the revolt of 1S4S had turned the city topsy-
turvy. Somehow or other she fell in with
a mob of rioters maddened with excitement.
The rabble rolled along one street into an
other, until it came to the Theatre Francois,
renamed Theatre de la Republique.
A man lifted Elizabeth to the stage and
holding a gun to her head, ordered her to sing
the "Marseillaise."
She raised her voice-overcome by emotion,
vibrant with the import of the events in
which she was participating-and intoned the
famous battle hymn. Half singing, half
chanting, her voice rose and fell the hushed
rabble seemingly hypnotized by the frail girl.
Then she ceased and an uproar of wild ac-
claim burst forth
From that moment, Rachel, greatest Of
French actresses, was firmly established in
the volatile hearts Of her countrymen. Event
ually, when stricken with tuberculosis, she
came to this country but was forced to can
eel her tour. She returned to France to
die there. BRADFORD.

ANDREW BRADFORD also was one of the
"A earliest postmasters of Philadelphia, If
not the first and, of course, his shop was the
postoffice. Franklin was enviOus of him in
this position, realizing that to be postmaster
and have the control of the postboys was a
distinct advantage in the distribution of a
newspaper. How Franklin managed to get this
office and how he turned the tables on Brad
ford by bribing the postboys to neglect Brad
ford's Mercury and take care of his Gazette
is very characteristic of the great philoso-
pher, who was not all philanthropist where
business was concerned.
Bradford, who died in 1742 published the
American Magazine the previous year, the
publication making its appearance about the
same time that Franklin's magazine ap-
peared.
That was another time when Poor Richard
opposed his rival and defeated him.

UNDERNEATH Broad street Is a river. 1t
u has caused untold bother for builders and
it will cause the expenditure of much extra
money when the subway is constructed.
So far, it has been traced from the north
east corner of Broad and Arch streets,
south, curving around the City Hall, as far
as Walnut. When the church at Broad and
Arch was being built, the subterranean flow
was observed and damned in more ways than
one. 1t came to light again when the Ritz
Carlton Hotel was in course of construction.
There it was observed that it ebbed and
flowed in synchronization with the river tide
two inch above normal and much below.
No one appears to know whence it comes
nor where it empties, but it is a really, truly
river nevertheless.

OPPOSED TO GOLF
Patterson Makes Strong
Statement in New York
A. c. Wrangle.

One more contribution to the cam
paign for the presidency of the New
York Athletic Club was made last
night. In a written statement signed
by him as chairman Of the golf COM
| mittee, ]. G. Patterson makes full
explanation of the arrangements made
by his committee with the Fox Hills
Golf Club about a year ago.
The plan then proposed was turned
down by the board Of governors, and
in the statement which he made yes
terday William H. Page, the president
of the club, who was refused a renom-
nation by the nominating committee
and who is running Independently,
gave his version of the plan and his
reasons for opposing it.
Mr.. Battersons statement is put
forth as reply to that of Mr.. Page.
1t begins with denial that golf in
f1uenced the work of the nominating
committee, and continues as follows:
Mr.. Pages objection that the club
had no legal right to pay over to the
Fox Hills Golf Club money collected
from member for a stated purpose
is pure tommyrot. If not, then the
club has no right to furnish taxicabs
and collect the charges for same
through the members house accounts
and to pay the money over to the
taxicab company.
"Mr. Page did not want golf, and
does not want golf because he does
not understand it. That is the crux
Of the situation. While it is not true.
as stated in the press. that nominees
for office on the regular ticket have
pledged themselves in favor Of golf,
there is no doubt in the minds of the
golfers but that they viii get a full
and fair hearing, and everything will
be done for them that is consistent
with the best interests of the club"
Mr.. Patterson, who is fighting for
the pres dency of the New York Ath-
letic Club, is affiliated with five golf
ing orgenizations-th Fox Hills Golf
Club. the Ekwanok Country Club,
the New Haven Country Club, the
Country Club of Lakewood and the
Country Club Of Atlantic City. He
was a member of the metropolitan
team in the Lesley cup competitions
half a dozen years ago, and has been
a regular tournament competitor for
the last decade.
The annual meeting OF the Somer-
vile Country Club will be held on
