The first thing that happened was
that party Of five with six tickets to
Dieppe offered me the extra one for
the next morning, if 1 wanted to risk
the possibility of the boats not run

The party, ike all the strange
combinations Of those days, consist
ed Of a man and his wife and little
child, and two college boys who had
annexed themselves. l agreed to go
with them, and being thus provided
for, guarded the luggage while my
friend and the other American wo-
man who had telephoned US, went
out to join the line in the street.
This line was run on the same basis
as the line at the embassy. After
getting a number in one line, one
came back in a day or two for rail-
road ticket. But Blind Luck caused
a woman to decide not to use her two
tickets to Havre, and to ask my
friend and the other woman if they
wanted them.
The rumor was strong that no
boats left Havre. My friend did not
dare risk it, and so did not take the
ticket. ! dared, for was trying to
catch the Philadelphia. So gave her
my Dieppe ticket and took the one to

After saying goodbye to my

Havre the next morning, and I went
to the French Steamship Line to try
to change my Philadelphia ticket for
La France ticket. 1t was then 1 80

$3.50. ...

PIER WALL GONE TO THE
WAR

BY Louise Townsend NicholI
"C'est fini," she whispered, and
went out of the room, lest l should
see her cry. l learned afteTward that
her husband, her three brothers, and
her husbands brothers had all gone.
And after that, under all the shout
ing of the mObs, under all the frag-
ments Of the national hymn which
every one was singing, under all the
laughter Of the little children who
did not understand, heard that wo-
mans whispered words, "C'est ini."
The next day was Tuesday, and my
boat was to leave Southampton on
Wednesday at noon. Things hap
pened fast. No planning, no de-
CisiOns, could include the happenings
of that day, and it seemed blind luck,
or else a something which is indie
scTibable and asks only faith, which
sent me to the station with my bags
that morning and found me at two
the next morning on the last boat to
cross the channel-at any rate for
few days. Up to this time we had

Tuesday morning began by our
standing in line at the District Police
Court, to get our passports signed.
Word came along the line that with
out Identification from the hotel in
which we were living no police sigma
lures would be given. And it was just
here that the indescTibable something
which we call Blind Luck made it's
first appearance.
If we had not just then gone back
to our hotel for an Identification card,
we would have missed a telephone
call from another American woman
saying that she knew that the Chan

must pack our bags and go directly
to the Saint Lazare station, where
we could try to get a ticket. We

Mrs. Whiffen's Beautiful
 Adventure

It is good to know that The Beau tiful Adventure" which Charles Froh- man produced at the Lyceum theater in New York a week ago, has SCOT ed d hit and all the better because the hit was very largely due to the work of Mrs Whiffen. As we said last Sunday this is to be her last appearance on the stage, after more than fifty years of work and it is only the just due of so splendid and lovable an artist as this dear old lady that she should retire in glory, full of the well earned honors of many years of splendid service to a public that has given her a place in its heart that is exclusively her own.
 In his critique of the play Alan Dale says:
 Tt was distinctly Mrs. Whiffen's night at the Lyceum Saturday, and
Arizona republican., 1914-09-13

if any actress on the English speak ing stage deserved night all to her self it is the delightful old lady who made "The Beautiful Adventure beautiful. It is a long time since this jaded city worshipped at the shrine of one of those dear, old fashioned. cozy, heart-tugging and sentimental grandmothers who are forgotten in today's crowd of mili- tant, ashamed-to-g -grow-old ancestors.
 Madame de Trevillac in "The Beautiful Adventure" was eighty, and still living in forgotten past, where all seemed rosier than the slatternly present. Her humor. her exquisite philosophy, her views of love, of marriage, of youth, of hope, of hap piness, took hold of the Lyceum au- dience It was the most comfortable sensation and we have had this sea- ticity Dear old Mrs Whiffen, It was truly an admirable occasion.
