average life of a battleship is some
nine years. We say Let's go a little
easy on this preparedness business"

Of a leading Virginia family, who, it
is believed, has been rObbing wor-
shippers I'm Fifth avenue churches for
the past several years, has again been
arrested She was taken into custody
after a detective said he had seen her

When arrested at St PatTicks
Cathedral last February on a similar
charge she gave the name Of Mrs

of the proudcst NirEiniau families"
Now she gives the name Of Mrs.
Catherine Northrup. the name she
gave when arrested in the same
church over Il year ago for stealing
a $500 gold mesh bag from Miss Dor
othy W Fisk. daughter of PlIny Fisk,
the banker.
Nearly all last winter worshippers
In prominent Fifth avenue churches
complained of being robbed Of their
purses, furs and even jewels while at
PRAYER. A close watch on Mrs. Fltz-
hugh resulted in her arrest She was

worker took her to the country to
reCuPcratC.
She Is pretty q most fascinating

Tulsa Invaded
by a Bug Army
Following Rain

Of what species they were or
whence they came Is irrelevant. Lot
it suffice they were there-thousand
OF them, and until last midnight they
struck men and women and young
sleTs singing blows in the face which
uurJ Ike everything and left large
red spots.
il was the worst night for bugs iu
lhe cltys history, according TO the old
timers, and they ought to know.
lhere was difference Of opinion
whether the invaders were katydids
OF grdsshOppcrs, but they were green
and hard and could fly fast and
straight
Twas soon after dark that they
began to assemble. The rain of the
afternoon seemed to stimulate them.
As long as they flew around the arc
lamps there was no danger, but as
soon as one started on a journey
across the street or up the street, as
the case might be, it was low bridge
everybody.
Ii seems these bugs were not ere
ated TO fly straight and they have no
respect for traffic rules. Therefore
they frequently collided head-on with
pedestrians, clung to gowns and some
times lingerie and otherwise made life
wholly miserable for those in the
streets.
And for every big bug there ap-
parcntly were millions of little bugs
Of all colors and shapes, the whole
being an army which will not soon be
forgotten here. Some of the bugs
were OF the biting variety, but the
majority were not. Those without a
biting apparatus amused themselves
by crawling down backs, through
peek-holes Of miladys bodice or
wherever else they could crawl
Oh, but twas a lovely night-for
the buggies.

A DISH OF MACAR0NI.

An Italian resident of the South
who for many years was as famous
for his good cooking as for his library
il three lar guages, used to declare
that the only way to prepare marca
roni in genuine Italian style was to
boil it in salt water until tender and
then serve it with grated cheese In
that way alone, he insisted, did the ep-
icure get just the individuality and
true flavor of Italy's national dish. He
used grudingly, however, now and
then preparing for his American
friends a dish of spaghetti, or mac
aroni, that was every thing in one and
OF a SAVIOR never to be forgotten.
To prepare this, he boiled the paste,
in whatever form it was selected, in
chicken stock and, just before it was
done. added the minced breast of
chicken, mushrooms, green peas, red
Pepper, onion, and any other ingred
lent that the farcy of the minute
seemed to call for With this was serv-
ed grated Roman or Parmesan cheese
that was sprinkled generously over
the macaroni as the plates were help
ed. This dish constitutes a whole meal
and, served with claret and French
bread alone, is a feast for the GODS
Southern Woman's Magazine.

MEASURES BEFORE
ASSEMBLY, GRAVE

ATLANTA, Ca, Nov. 5.-TAa extra
session of the Georgia legislature was
tegun this Vice.. with the body fac ne
more important matters THAI il has
ever disposed Of in a regular session
since the war
An addition to general appropri-
ations and prohibition, which for the
time being occupy the center of the
statge, there are half dozen otne-
matters to be disposed of which are Of
vital interest to the welfare of the
state.
Prominent among them is the West
ern Atlantic Railway bill, providing
for the creation CT commission to
handle the new lease and other details
in connection with the states prope.-
ty. The bill which was introduced has
been redrafted for the extra session,
under the direction of Colonel Walter
+. Andrews of Atlanta, chairman of
the Western & Atlantic Railroad COM
niittee of the house Colonel Andrews
has studied the Western & Atlantic
situation more closely, perhaps than
any other lawmaker in Georgia, and
his suggestions, it is believed, as en-
bodied in the proposed legislation, will
be Of inestimable value to the state.
Another statewide measure in which
Colonel Andrew is directly interested
is the bill creating a state highway
commission. This movement is in line
with Colonel Andrews lifelong work
for good roads, and the proposal has
already been enthusiastically endol sed
in every port of the state.
