MRS. JOSEPH P. TUMULTY.

Tumulty children have repaid their moth
ers care an hundred fold. There Is no
more interesting family in Washington
official life. and, with the exception or the
family of Senator and Mrs. James OGor-
man, whose children number nine, none
larger. The names of the Tumulty chill
dren are: Mary, who is nine years old;
Joseph, eight: Grace, seven; Catherine,
six: Alicia, FIVE. and Philip, two. The
three older children go to school at the
Sacred Heart Convent.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tumulty have been mar
ried ten years. AS children, they were
playmates together at the school Of st.
Brides in Jersey City. Theirs, however.
was not romance of childhood. They
worked their fractions together and later
corrugated their Latin verbs from the
same grammar without having their
minds distracted by thoughts of ro-
nance. When the proper time came, the
two young people fell desperately in love
with each other and were married at ST.
Bridgets Church in Jersey City. Before
her marriage. Mrs. Tumulty was Miss
Mary Byrne, daughter OF Patrick Byrne,
a prominent contractor and builder Of
Jersey City. She has retained to q re-
markable extent the youthfulness Of her
girlhood.
Since coming to Washington. Mrs. Tum-
uIty has not allied herself with any So
cial or philanthropic organizations. She
declares that any woman who looks after
the needs of a husband and six children
has twelve hours day of her time al
ready engaged.

THE EVENING STORY.
Old Home and New.

Copyright, 1911, by W. Werner.)
From time to time during the evening
Norden looked furtively over the news
paper at Elsa, who was mending and
darning on the other side of the center
table Her face was calm, but back of
the clamness lay depressed longing.
Every now and then her mouth went
down and seemed to tremble. until she
pressed it quickly into firmness aga n.
The newspaper columns danced until he
could not see them. Anger held him. 1t
was not fair of her to be so unhappy.
Was it his fault that her old parents,
after thirty years of America. had de-
cided that they wanted to spend their
last years in the tiny village across the
ocean where they had spent their youth?
And, if they had been able to go and
leave her. their only child, surely she
could bear to let them go.
But I can't" Elsa said suddenly. lay
Ing down the black sock that she was
heeling. She had looked up in time to
catch the reproach of one furtive look.
Just think, If they get sick I'd never
get there in time. And mother was all
ing when she left She looked so old
when she boarded the steamer. l can
see her in my dreams her white hair a
little mussed when she fell against you
crossing the gangplank. And Elsa
stopped from inability to keep on. Her
voice was too tremulous.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1914-01-16

Norden sullenly stared at the paper.
He, too, was from the old country. But
he had come over when he was three,
and 1t was the vaguest of vague dreams.
America was his home-his land. He
couldn't imagine leaving it. 1t was pre-
posterous to Elsa to expect him to sell
his growing business and go back to that
stagnant land to open small shop there,
to raise their children. if any came, there
to stagnate and there to die. Il couldn't
do it." he declared, fatty, as he had de-
clared once before when they had dis
cussed the matter.
NO." Elsa agreed. Il know how you
feel, Nordon. And I never would feel
there as 1 feel here. But 1 worry SO
about them"
She sighed and slowly resumed her
work on the sock. Norden's eyes went
back to the newspaper. For three
as sorrowfully. Elsa could not forget
her old parents going back lonesomely
to the old home. Norden could not over
look Elsas somber face. She never
laughed any more. or if she did it was
80 obviously forced that he felt irr;tatel.
He could not help thinking that she was
not fair. And yet in his gentier mo-
ments he was just enough to realize that
she could not help her grief and he pitied
her.
They had tried to combat the old folks
resolution. For two or three years they
had combated it and had argued them
