memory of events during the strenu-
Gus times of fifty years ago and a
faculty of stringing them together in a
most entertaining manner, and men,
bers of the chapter are anticipating
much pleasure from her story. Not
only members, but all who are inter
ested in the subject are cordially in-
yited to be present, .-Lss-.A--A.--.As.s

Keeping Young.

Golfers Weekly: We have been
talking of late on the advantages CT
keeping young. We have urged youth
to go ahead and be itself, although it
needs no urging. But how can we
prolong that youth? Is there a set
age when it must disappear? Need it
vanish at, say, 80 years? 1t is only
the dawn flush? There is a way pro-
vided by which the sum may be bid
den to stand still. The way was long
ago shown us by the noblest of our
New E~nglanders. Books, travel, So
siety, solitude-these will keep a man
young, because they feed the sources
of his life. They replenish the we'll
springks. Ignorance, c~owardice, druid
gerry of ~spirit-these dry him up be-
fore his time.

MRS. FRANK LESLIE
 DIES OF HEART TROUBLED
Had Been. an Invalid for Some Time
 Following ParaIytio Shock.

New York. Sept. 1s.-Mrs. Frank Leslie (the Baroness De Baseus) died tonight in her apartments in an up- town hotel here. She was the widow of Frank Leslie. the publisher, who died in 1880 and has herself since been prominent in the publishing world.
 An acute attack of heart trouble was the cause of Mrs. LeSlie's death. She had been an invalid for some time, since having suffered a slight stroke of paralysis. For the last six weeks she had been in critical condition and physicians had been in daily att tendance. No arrangements have been made as yet for the funeral.
 Mrs. Leslie, whose maiden name was Miriam Florence Folline, was born at New Orleans in 1851 of an old French Huguenot family. She was educated in languages at home by her father. At the age of thirteen she began writ ing for publications. Subsequently she married Frank Leslie. the pub fisher. After the death of her husband in 1880, she succeeded to his business, strengthened out the affairs of the Les lie publications and made them fnan- cial successes.
 In 1902 she sold her publishing in- terestS and resumed the family name of the Baroness De Baseus. a French title winch was created in the tune of Louis TX and which had belonged to her ancestors for many generations.

STOCK BROKERS WILL NOT
 ESCAPE ASSESSMENT OF $50.
Ways and Means Committee Decides to
 Include Them in the Bill.

Washington, Sept. 1S.-Stock brokers who have protested against a proposed special tax of $50 a year will not es- cape assessment. Democrats of the ways and means committee determined today to include them in the war reve- nue bill which is now being perfected.
 Arguments that brokers should not be taxed because stock exchanges now are colsed were not regarded as suf- ficient to entitle brokers to exemption :nasmuch as it is probable that the ex- changes again will be operating be- fore the need for war revenue has passed.
 Perfection of the revenue bill was not completed today. Stamp tax rates will be taken up tomorrow. Few changes are contemplated in the stamp tax rates as levied during the Spanish American war, though the matter of eliminating checks is still undeter- mined.
 The committee today approved the additional tax of 50 cents barrel on beer, the tax of two cents a gallon on gasoline and the special taxes on bank ers brokers and tobacco dealers it is proposed to fix the wine tax at fl cents a gallon on dry wines and 20 cents on sweet wines.
 The matter was left open, however, in order to give the California wine growers, headed by Theodore A Bell, an opportunity to file a statement with tho committee tomorrow.

 William Jones of Birmingham, Ala. engineer of the WIecked train, who lost his life. is said to have been given the "clear" signal at the last automatic swetchpost before the Klondyke switch where the wreck occurred. Supporters of the wrecker theory think someone tempered with the switch in the brief interval after the train passed the block and before it struck the switch.

 It also is said that the switch was thrown against the train. that the switch light was out, and that the oil tank of the light was empty.

 The train, composed of six sleepers, two day coaches, mail, baggage and ex- press cars left Meridian, Miss, short ly after midnight last night, half an hour late. It is believed the engineer was trying to make up lost time when the train struck a freight car loaded with slag.
 Three PuIImans Escape.
 The whole train, except the last three sleepers, piled on to the loco- motive and freight car. The three Pullmans which escaped had been coupled on at Meridian from a New Orleans and Northeastern train, which left New Orleans last night at 730 o'clock, bound respectively for New York, Cincinnati and Birmingham. The train itself was running over the tracks of the Alabama Great Southern.
 Although a reliaf train from Mertd- ian arrived at the scene of the wreck promptly, identification was much slower than the relief work as nearly every passenger except those in the three rear sleepers was injured.

ANOTHER SHARP DECLINE,
 IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE.
But Indications Point to Return of
 Normal Conditions.

New York, Sept. 1S.-Another sharp decline in foreign exchange was the most interesting and latest phase of the financial situation today, together with the announcement that the new city loan had been oversubscribed. In fact, the further break in exchange eign participation in the loan.
 Dealings in bills on London were quite extensive. being quoted as low as 4.93, with moderate recovery later. Taking this low figure as a basis, ex- change is, down six cents from the weeks highest level and more than ten cents since the first of the month. This points strongly to, return of fairly normal money conditions be- tween New York and London before long. An indubitable sign of Improve ment in domestic conditions was found in the retirement of a number of call loans which had hung over the past fortnight. There were also freer ac- ceptanees of commercial paper by in- terior banks and rumors that London, where money was plentiful, was renew ing loans maturing here. Sentiment among bankers fayors the organization of the s150,0Qo, ,000 gold pool which was temporarily abandoned at the sugges- tion of the federal reserve board when local banking jnstitutions agreed to finance this city,s maturing debts abroad. It is felt that the plan which involves the assistance of inland banks would strongly fortify this country's credit in Europe and call for little if any additional gold exports.
