ROYAL PUP WITH A
FIFTEEN ROOM HOUSE
GREAT DANE DOG HAS VALET,
BIG DOWNY BED AND $3.50
ADAY FOR SUPPORT.

Down in the Cohasset region of
Greater Boston, high upon great
estate, in a 15-room house, with a

allowance of $3.50 a day for meals,
and with a Japanese valet to attend

highness, Prince, a monster Great
Dane dog.
The Palace of Prince is situated
on an eminence, far above it towers
the residence of Ernest G. Howes, a
wealthy Boston man. He is grace
fully permitted by H. /. M. to occupy
one of the finest homes in Cohasset,
just above Princes palace.
$3.50 Day for Board.
This is in return for favor done
Prince by Mr.. Howes. Mr.. Howes,
while Prince was still in his early
days of youth, purchased him, and
Prince, out of gratitude, has permit
ted Mr.. Howes' residence near him
ever since. This was about year

Should you desire an audience with
his majesty an interview first with
one Toku Kobe, valet, is desirable.
In fact, the Princes valet is quite
talkative in regard to his majesty S
tastes and customs.

he is most carefully groomed.
FAfter the bath he wanders about

than Is apartments in it-and then,
when he desires, he retires. It is my
duty to see that the bath water is not
too hot nor too cold, that he receives
the medicines prescribed by the ply

and smoothly, the linen changed and
the lights extinguished. | awake him
in the morning, battle him and give

for a tramp in the woods, usually at
tended by me- Thus the day passes
and keeps me very preoccupied.

! but play. Work, according 10 MS
theory, is doing something you don't
like to do. He worked for so years.
Then he went to playing. He found
when he fed pigs for play they got
fat; if he fed them for profit he fed
too much and they died. He figured
out that he never did make any mon
ey as long as he worked. He lost
nearly everything except his wife.
Then he got to playing at farm
ing, and his mules and horse got to
making money for him and his land
grew in value. 1t got so valuable
| that man came along with check
book and ran him off Then he NOV
ed to town, and it looked like he was
going to dry rot and be made fit for
the boneyard until he took to playing
again. He started his Garden of
Eden, and today he is friskier than
ever.
The first figures one sees on enter
ing the garden are Adam and Eve,
who stand over eight feet high, hands
clasped over the gate. One serpent is
putting an apple in Ewes extended
palm and another is being stamped
to death by Adam, while the devil APP
pears overhead on a limb, with spear
poised and malevolent eyes glazing
at this worlds first lovers.
Mr.. Dinsmore confesses that they
were made with cement and trOwel.
Some people don't like the looks OF
Eve, and their creator admits he
doesn't blame them. But then, he
explains, his models were women who
passed his house, and as they gener-
ally passed in hurry he couldn't fol-
low the them closely.
The Uncanny, All-Seeing Eye.
There are two things about the
garden that the townspeople do not
like. One is the all-seeing eye on
high cement pole which winks cleo
trically at night as if it were sol
emn warning to all who look at it.
The other has to do with the prln-
cipal figures of the garden, which are
mounted in trees REINFORCED by gas
pipes. Very often when a curious
crowd gathers outside and gapes at
the creations Mr.. Dinsmore, who
loves a joke, will slip to the base
ment. Presently the angel with the
flaming sword, perched high in a ce-
ment tree, will speak soto voce:
"Cain, Cain, you son of a gum
where is Abel?"
To this unangelic query Cain will
give the goth century reply:
"Search me, kid. I'll be darned if
I know"
Thereupon the devil from his dig
nifed position will yell out:
81 should worry"
This generally makes the crowd
move on, especially if it's just grow
ing dark and the weird conversation
is accompanied by the winking of the
eye.
Among the cement wonders the
most notable is a flag four by eight
feet done in red, white and blue ce-
ment and weighing half a ton. 1t
swings in the breeze on ball bearings,
making a weather vane. Another odd
feature is a cement pyramid on which
strawberry vines are planted in the
spring. The cement is about one
and one-half inches thick, over soil
interior, with thing and spray to irri-
gate. On top of the pyramid are
planted touch-me-nots, and when the
are ripe and visitors
come Mr.. Dinsmore calls their atten-
ton to the flowers. He says, how
ever, that next spring he intends to
set out milk weeds in place of the
flowers, hoping to raise Strawberries
and cream on the same bed.

GOOD SEASON
OF RAIN FALLS
Was General Over the County and
Will Greatly Help Growing Crops
Reiuvenate Gardens.

A good season of rain fell through
out the county Monday afternoon
and continued through Monday night
This is the first rainfall for this I'M
mediate section in more than six
weeks, and it will have a wonderful
rejuvenating effect upon the parched
gardens and be boon to growing
crops. While cotton and corn and
other late maturing crops have not
been hurt the drouth cut the oat crop
off considerably and dwarfedd grow
ing cane. The dusty roads had be-
come almost intolerable to automo-
hiIists and other travellers, and the
rain came as a great relief to every
one.

This man, S. P. Dinsmore, of Lu'
cas-. Kans., calls it the Garden OF
Eden. and being 70 years old, great
grandfather five times, survivor OF
10 battles and non-hyphenated, all
of which he freely admits, he has a
right to his opinion.
Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, the
devil and all the charter members OF
the original garden troupe are there,
done forever in cement; also, for the
sake of variety rather than consist
encv, 125 more figures, Biblical and
otherwise, perched and glowering
down in their impassivity on the vii
layers who pass that way by day, but
who sedulously avoid it after dark.
In the center of the Garden of
Eden. in the midst of all this ghostly
array of cement creations, is Mr..
Dinsmore's cabin home, log house
bui1t of stone from native lodges.
One of the two porches is ornament
ed with cement beer bottles and jugs
and mugs as a sort of merry jibe at
Kansas prohibition laws. One of the
many inlaid tables in the cabin house
is a small one which contains 1872
pieces of wood. Over the door in the
living room is what the old gentle
man calls a wooden sermon. 1t is
the motto: "Home Is What You
make it.
/ Calls Them Stone Sermons.
Outside, as he facetiously explains,
the sweep of his hand taking in the
petrifed Garden of Eden, are 100
stone sermons. 1t took over 43 tons
of cement to make them, and the cost
so far has been over $1,000. But
even at that Mr.. Dinsmore declares
he is far from being through. There

HOSPITAL SEEKS

Queens Hospital Superintend'
ia ent Tells How institution
T. Suffers Under Act

The Compensation Act Is All
wrong" according to Queens hospital
authorities. and they have started op:
erations this week to correct what
they term the evil as far as they are
concerned. Startling developments
are promised.
Werner Eoehl, superintendent OF
Queens hospital, has inserted an ad.
veFtisement in local publication to
the effect that here after all employees,
whether indemnified or not by com
pnsation insurance, will be held liable
for all hospital charges incurred In the
treatment Of employees received at
their instance.
Roehl wasn't a bit backward about
explaining the reason for the "ad" to
a Star bulletin representative today.
The Queens hospital has been the
goat so hong in this compensation
matter that something definite and
final will be done." he said. I'VE
have been taking compensation pa
tients here for months and Invariably
receiving only a small part OF the
cost of their treatment. From now
on we will not take cases If payment
in full for their care is not guaran'
teed beforehand"
To Treat Desperate Cases.
Roehl says the Queens hospital
will certainly not refuse desperate or
serious cases, but the ordinary acci'
dent and fracture kind will be turned
back to the emergency hospital if not
accompanied by the required guaran'
tee from the employer.
Most ordinary fracture cases bring
about $50 in compensation insurance,
says RoehI, 'and it is the sense OF
the law that these cases be treated
and cured inside of two weeks. In
most cases this is impossible and while
we are paying our grocer and meat
and light and nure bills and all the
rest the attending doctor usually
draws out his full fee and leaves us
few dollars for several weeks
trouble and expense. 1t isn't right
