1t will be remembered that Mrs.
Atherton figured two years ago in an
incident without precedent in the his
tory of art when she was painted by
TWO distinguished artists. Lawton Par
Eer and Mrs. Grace Farwell McGann,
at the same sitting.
Mr. and Mrs. Atherton spent sew
cral months in England, where Mrs
Atherton served as a nurse in Mrs
Walter Astor's hospital on her estate,
"Cleveden, near London. They were
called to England last December by
the death of Mrs. Atherton's aunt,
the Countess of Zoghet, formerly Mrs
George Lee Peabody, and their stay
was heightened by an operation for
appendicitis which Mrs Atherton un-
derwent in London.
1T was purely an accident that
did any hospital work at ALL" said
Mrs. Atherton. Mrs. Astor invited US
to her estate and when We arrived
there we found everyone doing his or
her share towards the relief of the
900 wounded soldiers Mrs. Astor is
caring for So l Just pitched in with
the rest"
From England the AthertOns went
to Paris. where Mrs. Atherton says
the modistes are making gowns for
Americans only now.
"On account of the war the women
in Europe are wearing nothing elab-
crate" she said, and practically an
of the fine work being turned out in
Paris shops is for American women

WILSON VICTORY INAUCURATES
new ERA IN POLITICS.
PRESIDENTS CONQUEST WITHOUT new YORK; ILLINOIS AND INDIANA
THING BELIEVED BY POLITICIANS TO BE IMPOSSIBLE.

in New Jersey. Murphy's organiza-
ton deliberately knitted the Demo-
cratic ticket in New York; Sullivan
evidently cid not get out the Chicago
vote; and the New Jersey machine
failed to carry the Presidents home
state for him.
In the case of Murphy it is known
that the President refused to make
terms with Tammany, saying frankly
that he would rather take the conse-
quences than to tie himself up in the
matter of patronage and other favors
which Tammany demanded. Roger
Sullivan has nominally always sup
ported Wilson, but in Illinois he is
part of the bipartisan Sullivan-Lorl-
mer machine organization and this or
ganization worked harmoniously to-
gether in Chicago and Cook County
for Hughes and LoWden. The Sulll-
van votes did little harm to LoWden.
President Wilson has received a
mandate from the most progressive
states in the country. The Pro-
gressivism of the West could not be
delivered to the Perkins-Hughes out
fit. The West gave the President a
vote of confidence. They approved
his internal policies and his manage
meat of foreign affairs, and the heavy
vote for Wilson of the four states
bordering on Mexico would indicate
approval of his handling of the MeXl-
can problem.

WANT STATE TO TAKE OVER
ANOTHER ROAD
Counti;.ns Urge Cooperation OF Com
mission Board.

Frederick News of Nov. Is, says:
Asking that the county commission
ers cooperate with them in having
The State Roads Commission take
over the Frederick and Liberty Turn
pike. about nine miles in length,
Illrge delegation appeared before the
board Monday morning. The commits
siOners could give no satisfaction eX-
cent to state that if the company
would give the turnpike to the State
as we'll as half the money in the
treasury the county would probably
look after the upkeep of the road un-
til the State was in position to re-
surface it.
The road practically goes on an air
line from Frederick to Westminster,
the county seat of Carroll county. A
part of the delegation urged the pur-
chase bv the State of the New Wind
sor and Liberty Turnpike, which
would then give a State road to the
Carroll county line.
The commissioners were unable to
state Yesterday when the toll gates
on the Buckeystown and Urbana
pixies would go up. 1t will be re-
membered that the State decided
about six weeks ago to take over
these roads, but it was necessary hrst
to examine the titles and have the
turnpike companies ratify the sales.
There are several toll gates on the
two roads that will 60 up as soon as
the State gives the word, and many
inquiries are being received as to
when free traffic will be provided for
the public.
1t is believed that in the course Of
time all toll gates will be abolished
in the county, as the State roads sys-
TEN grows However, the purchase
Of turnpikes depends on the amount
OF money appropriated by the legis-
lature. and the work can go on only
SO far as the money will carry it.

OFFERS MILE OF TREES.
State Forester Has Novel Plan OF
Planting.

The State Forester of Maryland, r.
w. Besley has just announced very
novel plan whereby any lover Of
shade trees with a roadway in need OF
them has only to apply to the Board
of Forestry, at its Howard street
Office, to have their needs supplied.
About three years ago the Board
established a State Nursery at Col
lege Park, and much OF the stock then
planted there now being of shade tree
size, it will be possible for one person
or Civic organization in every county
of the State to secure enough Red Oak
or White Ash trees to properly plant
one mile of public roadway beside his
own and his neighbors' homes. Fur
ther, the $50 trees needed for the work
will not only be supplied free of any
cost save transportation from the
Nursery, but the expert direction of
Forester from the Office of the Board
will be available in setting out the
trees in proper manner.
Once before, according to Mr.. Bes-
ley, this offer was made, and immedi-
ately accepted by the citizens or pub
lic-spirited civic bodies OF many of
the counties. The trees lived, and the
rural highways are losing their ap-
pearance of baroness and unattrac-
tiveness and taking on better, much
more finished look, so that the plant
ers feel the small expense involved
was more than justified The offer
now made will hold during the season
of planting. That should be about
one more month this fall, and dwell
ers in the country or in communities
where lack of trees detracts from 9TH
| er things should do their part at once

Washington, Nov. 10.-A President
elected without New York! That is
the big sensation in the Wilson VIC
tory now. 1t is a smashing OF all MIS-
tory: an obliteration of precedent
1t is the big surprise that fooled
Manhattan. 1t is what sent the New
York editors off into their great blum
der of claiming Hughes election by a
sweeping victory when the West had
not been heard from. 1t inaugurates
a new era in politics. 1t is the
sweetest victory to the Democrats
they have ever had; much sWeeter
than it would have been had they
carried New York and secured an
Overwhelming majority il the Elec-
toral College. ,,
To win without New York and with
out Illinois and Indiana is thing be-
lieved by all politicians to be mpos-
sible and contrary to nature. 1t never
had happened.
The Solid West and the Solid
South have overcome the great New
York tradition and the great myth OF
Indiana, the pivotal state"
More than this there is slgnlh-
canoe in this victory. Wilson has
won without the three big Demo
cratic bosses and their corrupt po-
litical machines-Charlie Murphy and
Tammanv in New York; Roger Sulll-
van and the Cook County Illinois ma
chine; and the Smith-Nugent machine

Carroll County Dry Forces EnthusI-
aStic.

A large and enthusiastic meeting OF
the Union Temperance League was
held in Headquarter room, Times
Building, " ednesday afternoon, No
vember 18th. Far from being dis
couraged over the fact that the dry
majority in the recent election was not
as large as hoped for, the dry
forces are more determined than ever,
and full of fight. Viewing the situa-
ton in general, they declared there is
very much for encouragement. The
fact that four new states, Michigan,
Montana, South Dakota and Nebraska
were added to the dry" column and
in our own state, Washington county
and Frederick county and Havre de
Grace, have all banished the saloons,
all of which is a cause for cOngratula-
ton among the "drys."
The Treasurer Garner, made COM
Dlete report of receipts and expendi-
lures for the campaign, showing all
bills paid and a handsome cash bal
ance still in the Treasury. The
League decided to hold regular meet
ings the first Wednesday afternoon OF
each month, at 80, in headquarter' s
ROOM To these meetings all friends
of the dry" cause are earnestly lnVlt-
ed.
Committees we're appointed on Law
Enforcement and Publicity and plans
for pushing the work in the most ag-
gressive manner during the coming
wear. Most of the districts of the
county were represented and no meet
ing of the year has shown more real
interest and enthusiasm, in the work,
than did that of Wednesday afternoon.
The w. c. T. U. are uniting their
forces with those of the Union Tenn
perance League to push the plan along
educational and other lines.
