GENERAL TRACY ILL;
STRICKEN AT DINNER
Former Secretary of Navy Be-
lieved To Be Suffering from
PARALYSIS.

General Benjamin F. Tracy. Secretar,
Of the Navy under President Harri.
son, is seriously i'll at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Ferdinand S. Wilmer
ding, IA East Sixtieth Street, it was
learned yesterday. He was attacked
while dining about a fortnight ago,
and is believed TO have suffered a
stroke of paralysis. 1t was said that
an automobile collision in which he
was a victim had nothing to do with
the present ailment, as ne was in
good health up to two weeks ago.
General Tracy has been in the pub
lie eye for more than half a century
as a lawyer, soldier, judge and states
man. He is regarded as virtually the
founder of the modern navy. AS a
lawyer he handled many important
cases, and as member Of the Court
of Appeals wrote several noted deci-
sions. He received the Congressional
Medal of Honor for his conduct at the
Battle of the Wilderness in 1864.

.HAVEMEYER ESTATE
SUED BY PIANIST
Sugar Refiner's Widow
Agreed to Will Him
$4,000, He Alleges.
HE WAS TO PLAY
FOR HER ALONE
Action Filed Against Executors
Declares Request Provides
Only $4,000.

Max Vogrich. composer and nianist.
is trying TO enforce. through the Su-
preme Court, claim for $4,000
against the estate OF Mrs. Emile De
Loosely Iavemeyer. widow OF Theodore
A. Havemeyer, the sugar rehner.
Vogrch yesterday fled a suit against
Theodore A. Hayemeyer, son OF Mrs.
Havemeyer, and William Butler Dun
can, executors Of her estate. to collect
the $4,000 which he alleged was
promised him by Mrs. Havemeyer
under an unusual verbal agreement.
Vogrich said that he was employed
by Mrs. Havemeyer in 1898 as pianist
at her home. He said that Mrs. Have
meyer made tho proposition to him
that if he refrained from accepting
professional employment by any other
person she would leave him S3O,OOO IN
her will. besides paying him a salary
for his services.
Relying on this agreement, Nogrich
said, he rejected all offers for his ser
vices and devoted his talent for the
exclusive SHJOJ mVHS VI -"Ao' AA"'N
meyer.
Subsequently, he said. Mrs. Have
meyer sent him a cory Of clause IN
her will in which she made the prom
ised $4,000 bequest. She asked him
not to diyulge this provision.
Mrs. Havemeyer died on May 3,
1914, in Switzerland. Her will was
filed for probate. Apparently 1t was
not the same will which contained the
$4,000 bequcst for Vogrich. as 1t pro-
vided for only $4,000 for the mu-
stefan.
Vogrich sues for the $4,000, saving
he kept his part Of the peculiar agree
ment at great pecuniary loss. At
the same time he expresses some doubt
about the value of the estate of Mrs.
Havemeyer He says he does not be-
lieve there are any funds. but he wants
TO find out.

profoundly respected his character and

The Nation Taking a Hand.
When he spoke those words last Fri
day in the House of Lords he chose not
only the right words, but the right mo-
ment. In whatever else may be said
about the effect Of this war on the pop
uiar mind, IL has taught people to think,
or TO begin to think, for themselves.
When the ttular leaders Of great
people refuse 70 lead, then the leader
ship passes e. the led Very slowly,
but visibly, these Englishmen are taxi
iag their affairs into their own hands.
That IS true Of them as il is true Of
Us IN America, where only the pressure
of the Nation has forced its President
TO DO the will of the nation. and TO pro-
tect in some measure both its interests
end its honor.
And here il is precisely the problems
from which Ministers shrink that the
Nation is beginning to deal with on its
own account. II was the Nation, or
his dread of the Nations verdict, which
forced Mr.. Asquith to recompose his
Ministry. II is the Nation which slow
ly, but with clear courage and fore
sight, is facing the questions Of or
gaIization and of National Service,
which the Ministers are still afraid to
grasp boldly. 1t is the Nation which
has passed judgment on the civil con-
duct of the war. 1t is the Nation
which has begun to realize, what II
ought long since TO have been told by
those who knew, that England and the
Empire are in grave peril. And it is
because Lord Curzon's was the voice
of the Nation that it rings over the
land and over the sea,-a warning
against the errors from which the
peril has sprung. and a promise that
by this new Ministry these errors shall
not be repeated. g. W. S.

RAIN DAMPENS LOVE
SCENE AT COLUMBIA
Driven from Green, Rosalind
and Orlando Resume Woo
ing in Gymnasium.


maids are May while they are maids,
but the sky changes when they are
wives" says Rosalind; but the sky
changed yesterday afternoon at the
open air performance of "As You Like
It" on the Columbia Green. before
Rosalind had a chance to marry Or
lando. For two acts mercless sun
scorched the Shakespeare fans in CO.
lumbia's bleachers. When Jaques
asked, "Who doth ambition shun, and
love to live in the sum-" great sigh
went up from the audience.
In the third act the sun went behind
cloud, and all was well. Not for
long, however A great wind made the
leaves rustic so that the lines could
not be heard, and blew the heavy
curtains about with a loud noise. The
fans, loyal to Clifford DevereuX's
players for a Shakespeare revival,
would not stir, until the rain came
down fast. Then ROsalind and Or
lando were forgotten, and everybody
ran for shelter.
Word was passed around that the
performance would be continued in
the gymnasium, and there Orlando
went on with his wooing.
Though the big oak on the Green
made a more realistic Forest Of Arden
than the brick walls of the gymnasium,
the audience entered fully into the
spirity of "As You Like It." and gave
half a dozen curtain calls.

last week, and gave excellent salts

not very large.
Another bruiser bout has come and
gone, to the discredit of Platteville.
Little is said about it in Platteville
Evidently our people do not take
particular pride in these events. 1t
there was any result to the plug ugly
affair, your correspondent does not
know what it was.
Our mayor is determined to stop
speeding on the streets. He says
there shall be no more of that fast
driving, especially on the con 'rete
pavements.
V. S. Pease, who is employed on
The Herald at Lancaster, passed
through Platteville the other day.
He stopped for dinner at the Columbia,
and later on was seen in close con-
versation with R. |. Dugdale, OF the
News. Some of our folks are
wondering if a deal is on between
them.
County Superintendent of Schools
was in Platteville, last Thursday.
He was out visiting schools in the
eastern part of the county. He said
he found the roads in excellent condi-
tion and our country schools doing
finely. He was at the school of Miss
Minnie Edge, No. 8, Harrison, and
saw the boy who to"k two prizes in
the town contest, week before last.
From Platteville, Mr.. Brick went
north. into the town of Lima, and
thence back to Lancaster, by way of
the school over which Miss Johnson
presides, in the town of Ellenboro.
Our zinc miners continue to look
pleasant. 1t is sid that some of
our mines are paying 100 per cent
profit every few days. Perhaps that
is putting it thick, but some of them
are making big dividends every 30
days. And we are glad of it.
Last Saturday was cleanup" day
here, and it was we'll observed. But
our streets are easily cleaned, being
