First New York Printer.

The first printer in New York and
Philadelphia was William Bradford,
who was born in Leicester, England,
May 20, 1868. He was Quaker, and
emigrated to America about 1852. He
set up his press in Philadelphia, and
in 1857 printed an almanac. He fell
under the displeasure of Philadelphia,
and, after being acquitted of charge
of seditious libel, he removed to New
York, where in 1893 he became the
first printer in the American metropo-
lis. His first shop was at 81 Pearl
street, but later he removed to Han
over square, where in 1925 he issued
the first newspaper printed in New
York-the New York Gazette. Brad
ford died in New York in May, 1852
having survived his paper by several
years, and was buried in Trinity
churchyard. His tombstone has beer
removed to the rooms of the New
York Historical society, but an exact
copy of the original may be seen by
visitors to old Trinity.

Discovery has been made in viii

hidden in the old oak roof timber of

bling a beehive was brought to light.
1t is made of wisps of straw, tied to-
gether and held in place by split BRAN
bles and is in fairly good condition.
Considering its age. it is yet strong
and rigid. This cottage, known as
Double cottage, has always been cred
tied with a history, as one of the
places where Charles II was hidden
while flying from Cromwell and his
army after the royalist defeat at Wor-
cester. The presence of the immense
straw beehive was unsupported until

lage is that the king concealed him.

keeping of the royal jewels. 1t is
known as a matter of history that

A GROUP of beautiful hats includes
n three ostrich-trimmed shapes,
such as women of fashion delight in
for those occasions on which the hat
is worn. At the club luncheon, at
five o'clock tea, at the afternoon recep-
ton, in the box party and for calling,
the hat is the dominant feature of the
toilet and must play its leading part
or reduce all the other apparel to its
own level. Women are right in giving
much time and study to the matter
Among the newest and most capti-
waiting hats are those with wide brims,
made of velvet. One of these is shown
in the picture having a brim much
wider at the left side than at the right.
The brim is covered smoothly with
velvet, and flares upward very gently
at the wide portion. The crown is
soft at the top, having the sides en-
circled by a smooth collar of velvet.
A sash of soft satin ribbon is tied
about it, finished with two short loops
at the front.
AT the side, short, very wide plume
is fastened to the underbrim with a

TOO OUTSPOKEN ON STAND
Testimony of Jacob Riis Won Verdict
for tho Right, Though II Made
Him the Goat"

The late Jacob A. Riis was a good
story-teller, but there was one story
that he used to tell to his friends
with especial glee, even though ne was
the goat" of it,
1t seems that soon after he took up
his residence on Long island he de-
cided to build house. He went to
an Austrian, whom he had known in
the days when he was poor and friend
less, and who had since prospered.
Riis asked for loan on mortgage.
Riis' friend insisted that the money
should be regarded rs q gift Riis
would not consent, and the matter
eventually was left as a loan (of which
no written record was made), which
was to be paid back at the borrowers
convenience.
Years passed." Riis used to add,
"and somehow l never had the money
to pay my friend. Then ! heard he
was i'll, and went to see him. I found
that he had become estranged from
his family. and had many talks with
him regarding his expressed desire to
leave his property to distant relatives
In Austria. Incidentally, he again told
me that his loan to me was not to be
repaid. Eventually he made a will
in which the bulk of his estate was
given to the people in Austria.
well, my old friend died, and, Of
course, the family contested the will
alleging that the testator was of un
sound mind. The Austrian GROVE
learned of my intimacy with him anC
of the fact that / had seen him Otter
toward the end of his life, and | wal
called as a witness at the hearing
of the suit to upset the will. l tool
the stand and told as fully and a.
frankly as l knew how of my relation
with the dead man and of the talks
had had with him, making it clear tina
he was sound in mind if not in body
and knew what he was doing when h
left his money outside the immediat
family. Incidentally, in talking of m
old friend, l told the whole story c
the loan of years before.
And would you believe it," Riis a
ways finished with a chuckle, "whe
those Austrians won their suit and &c
possession of that estate, the very frs
thing they did was to demand fro1
me payment of that unrecorded loan
And, by golly, paid it, tool"

small fiat bow of ribbon like that
around the crown. 1t curls up over
the brim edge and rests on the upper
brim.
Just above is a pretty felt hat in
light color. The facing of black velvet
forms the narrow binding at the edge OF
the brim A stiff collar of velvet
stands up about the crown. Between
this collar and the crown four short
ostrich tips are mounted, no two OF
them in just the same manner.
A hat of gold lace with narrow, fiat
brim and low crown is daringly
trimmed with a long straight ostrich
quill in white, and a soft black plume.
There is twist of velvet at the base
Of the crown. The tall quill and the
plume both spring from the front OF
the hat, the quill sweeping upward and
the plume falling backward over the
brim. Hats of silver lace, with 70
settles made of ostrich fiues in which
a rose is set, placed fat on the brim
at intervals, are about the same shape
as the hat of gold lace just described

CHAPTER lII-contInued.

Suddenly SHADES eyes lighted with
the fire of decision. His mouth be-
came a firm, straight line OF deter
mination. There was something i'm
placable and grim in his very attitude
as the resolve to win Katherine Strick-
land became fixed in his mind. He
longed to hurry after her-to tell her
OF his decision to fight, II not with,
then for her. He was eager to show
her just how much they two together
could make out of life, big. fine fight
for position and power.
Even the thought of being governor
was left in the distance as plan after
plan raced through his mind, of greater
conouests and bigger achievements,
possible only with woman like Kath-
crime Strickland for his wife. So alb
sorbed and intense we're his thoughts
of the future with her for the moment
he forgot completely the woman who
for 80 years had kept her place as his
wife In all his dealings he had never
considered obstacles, except to sweep
them from his path. As he remem
bered the present and Mary. he never
hesitated or faltered from his newly
made resolution.
Mary could go 1t alone. He would
see that she had everything thai
money could buy. He would make hel
comfortable and take care of her. Tina
she should be further considered never
entered his mind. Always ruthless II
his methods, he was equally cruel ever
when the obstacle to his advancement
was fragile little woman who ha(
given him the best of her love an(
years and who would gladly have laiC
down her life to save his.

Oil and Gas From Bricks.

Recent experimenting in the Peter
borough (England) brickyards with
patented process for extracting OIL
ammonia, and gas from burning bricks
is likely to have an important com
mercial significance. All bricks made
from the Oxford clay in the neighbor'
hood of Peterborough burn of them
selves in the kiln, because of the Di'
luminous matter they contain, and
that bituminous matter yields oil, gas
and ammonia on heating in retor'
out of contact with the air.
Patents have been granted to an ex
scholar from the Cathedral grammar
school. Mr. G.. p. Crowden. who has
invented an apparatus to modify the
present brick-kilns, so that the waste

CHAPTER w.

Slade wanted Katherine Strickland
would have desired a wealthy, clever,
influential man for partner. 1t was
to be a union of ambition. There was
no tenderness in his thoughts of her.
He was actuated purely and simply by
the lust for power and the greed of
glory. All the softer, better things In
the mans nature were swamped by
this torrent Of craving for worldly sue
cess that was sweeping him on to COM
NIT the most dastardly act in his long
career of trampling over the heads
and hearts of adversaries and oppo-
nents.
Even when he was boy Dan Slade
had always set his teeth at You can't
do it." or 1T can't be done" The very
difficulty of thing strengthened his
determination to do. All his life long
his success had been punctuated by
the ruin of other men. He had not
advanced so far without pushing other
men back. Now that a woman instead
of a man stood in the way, the result
was the same. His methods might be
Quieter, more merciful, but the answer
would be the same. Mary's sterlinf
worth, her long years of devotion anC
sweet tenderness counted for nothing
once he became convinced that Nary
dowdiness, her standpat policy and he,
arrested development were stop-gapl
In his own opportunity for progress

tie brown-eyed, patient woman was a
much a part of him as were his eye
or his arms or any other very essen

pitiless reasoning that Mary. peerin

4 COIFFURE which is always "in,"
n a staple style in hair dressing, and
a second one, which is typical of the
newest vogue, are pictured here to-
gether. In the first one a mode Of
dressing the hair is shown, which, with
very little variation, has been used for
many years. In the second, an idea
quite unfamiliar is set forth for what
it is worth, and it remains to be seen
with what success 1t bids for favor.
The middle part should not be adopt

are women with very abundant hair

A conservative example of the new
casque couture, in which the hair Ia
marcelled in very regular waves and
combed back Off the face, is shown in
the second picture. In the extremes OF
this style the ears are uncovered, the
hair drawn back off the forehead and
combed up to the top OF the head.
There are several arrangements of the
back hair, the favorite being a long,
soft French twist, considerably fuller
and higher than that shown here.
The forehead, in these new coiffures.
Is innocent of curls and quite bare.
This proves so trying to the majority
of women that they have softened the
