Continuance until March 10. 1917, of
the preliminary hearing of Karl Armand

charged with attempting to extort $4,000
from Countess Won Bernstorff, wife of the

who had been expected to testify against
Graves did not appear. William z. Leahy.
assistant district attorney, explained that
formal notification had not been received
through the State Department of the
availability of members of the embassy
as witnessed. 1t is understood that such
permission has been granted Prince Hatz-
feldt and other attaches by Emperor Will
liam, but since the State Department has
not notified the district attorneys office a
continuance was asked
DR." Graves appeared, smiling and de-
bonair. despite the fact that he was suf-
fering with a toothache. He and his at
torneys seemed somewhat bitter against
the German embassy for not having its
witnesses to testify this morning. Attor-
neys for Graves explained that their cli-
ent has a business contract which would
require three months to fulfill, and for
that reason asked that if any continu-
ance be granted it be for at least three

That other cities should take up the
plan of having school children collect
old newspapers, as is being done in
Washington in accordance with a plan
suggested by The Star, is urged by Sec
retary William C. Redfield Of the De-

one.

1t is one Of the peculiarities of M.
Rodin, the famous sculptor, that he
never poses a model. When a model
enters his studio he engages her in
conversation upon a subject foreign to
art and thus encourages her to forget
herself. Meanwhile his attention ap-
pears to be engrossed elsewhere, but
he is watching her keenly. When the
model unconsciously assumes a pose
or an expression which he believes
would be effective he bids her hold
that position, while he sets to work.
BY this method he believes he avoids
stilted and studied poses.
