her biographers have been much inter
ested In the question whether II was her
brothers gift that called forth her own
artistic ability or whether. II she had
not had an artist brother. she herself
would have done greater things
At all events, she was born into a
family Of painters and her father. believ-
Ing that an artist did not need q con-
yentional education, turned her into the
fields to study nature. She was eight
when her great brother Edwin was
born, and another brother, Charles. was
also painter of note. She did some
really good work and exhibited at the
Royal Academy and to the British In
stitue, and the dowager queen Alexandra,
Of England, has in her possession a copy
of one OF Edwin Lsndseer's paintings,
''Beauty's Bath" which the sister
executed.
Sarah Woolsey, known to the world as
Susan Coolidge" was born in Cleve-
land Ohio, in 1S45. She was a niece OF
Iormer president "oolsey' OF 1ale Col
lege, and a descendant OF Jonathan
Edwards. She received a very careful
education.
Her most famous books were the Katy
Did series-"What Katy Did" What
Katy Did Next" and other charming
stories for young girls. There were
others, among them THE Barberry
Bush" not In this series. that were
equally successful. and she wrote poems
and prose for magazines and newspapers.

she had to do.
| Fred, too, made due preparations for
! his trip East, and when he finally ar
rived in the great metropolis he was re-

with wide-open arms. A few hours with
business men through the day and long
evenings of dining. dancing. theaters and
i cabarets with jolly people.

! out to the best OF his ability.
One night at the theater, a party came
| in late and occupied a box quite near

of it, Miss Murtland? Good music, eh?'

was she. Beatrice did not see him and
he drew back into the shadow of the
box. "She is pretty, by Jove!' he man
aged to get out. And he was right. His
wife was by far the Ioveliest woman in

In the next week, he saw her four
| times with Frampton and the Warrens,
| at different places of amusement, but he
always managed some way to remain un-
| noticed. Beatrice was always beautifully
| gowned, and men, he could see, were
| anxious to meet her and talk to her. The
| iron of jealousy was entering his soul,
and he swore to kill Frampton, whom he
knew Of old and all about his suit for
Beatrice.

Steps were taken to affiliate with the American Federation of Labor and temporary officers were selected. John Mercer was elected temporary president, U. Ross, temporary secretary, and A. C. Craig was elected temper ery treasurer The conservative element is to be kept in control and will use nothing but friendly methods to secure an increase in wages, such increase to be asked in all lines of railroad work. At the meeting 100 men were pre- sent and the remarks showed the intention to be to keep up wages by meeting the employ CTS on amicable terms. The dis cussion showed that the organ izers have special reference to railroad work.
