Hotel McAlpin and the members and
friends were invited for supper. They
found themselves in a miniature "Coney
Island" crowded with sideshows of all
kinds with everything from hot dogs"
to peanuts and pink lemonade to at
tract them. Canes, minstrel shows, cane
racks, for which there were the usual
"barkers" vying for patronage.
There was a photograph gallery, with
the usual wooden horse and small au-
tomobile, wheels Of fortune and weigh
ing machines, cigar shop with
wooden Indian in front and a small
bar. The place was made to resemble
the great summer resort as much as
possible. OF course, dancing in the ball
room adjoining the large ROOM with
supper at small. tables, delighted the
guests.

The death of the Duke of Atholl last
week removes from Great Britain one
of the few pictur-
Duke Of Atholl esque figures that be-
-, longed to the past
Is Succeeqeo. generation. In Lon
don this great Scottish chieftain was
practically an unknown figure. He
very seldom came south Of the Tweed
except for such national functions as
the funeral of monarch or the coro-
nation of his successor. / doubt II
since his last visit to this city on the
occasion of King Georges coronation
says a London correspondent in the
Birmingham Age-Herald. that the late
duke ever wore anything except his
kilt and the rest of the costume that
is so dear to the soul of the Scotchman,
whether he be noble chieftain or SIM
ply a member of a clan. The dukes
successor, however. the Marquis of Tul-
dibardine, and his wife are well known
figures in exclusive West End circles,
and the late dukes shabby old house
in Eaton Square was before the war
usually occupied by the marquis and
marchioness.
The Marchioness of Tullibardine. who
is now the Duchess of Atholl, has al
ways been much to the fore in connec-
ton with Scottish charities in England,
and her special social stunt" has been
for more than a dozen years past the
arrangement of the annual royal Gale
donian ball. which. before things got
into their present condition of inter
national mix-up, was the one great
charity fupction to which all Belgravia.
Mayfair and the aristocratic quarters
round and about Park Lane and Gros-
venor Square were wont to flock in
large quantities. Both the present
duchess and her husband were actually
workers toward the success of this
once-a-year festivity. They refused to
be figureheads but personally made'the
plans and attended to the details OF
every part of the elaborate machinery
that made for the smooth working of
the Yestivity.
The duchess is small dark, rather
attractive looking woman, with a very
chirpy gay manner. She dresses quite
well, but simply. and looks her best, as
do most Englishwomen. when attired in
evening dress. She has some superb
emeralds. Her tiara of these stones.
, square cut and set round with large
diamonds, is one of the most beautiful
ornaments of its kind l have ever seen.
1t is shaped like a coronet, and the
duchess wears it like a Russian crown,
very low on her forehead, with only a
slight line of dark hair appearing be-
meath it. These emeralds are heirlooms,
and were only given in trust to the
wife OF the late dukes heir.

the following description of Riso
Eivo, the beautiful home of Miss
Armour, writes a correspondent in the
Chicago Herald.
Following the winding highway for
about six miles from Santa Barbara, the
pretty little drive of Palm avenue is
reached. thus approaching the entrance
TO Riso Riyo- A broad expanse of
green lawn with flower r-bordered walks

distance. comes the awe-inspiring view
OF the Pacific. for to the south are the
azure waters, and in the distance the
Santa Cruz Islands are glimpsed To
the left is the Rincon, one of the most
beautiful scenic drives in the world.
Shelteringly rise the majestic peaks of
the Santa Ynez mountains, to the north
and east, at whose base is the pictur-
esque Cold Springs canyon. through the
depths of which murmurs the little
stream from which the name of Riso
Eivo was derived, and which when
translated from the Spanish means

with the upper story of frame and
shingles, making a striking combina-
tion quite in keeping with its surround
ings.
An unusual and delightful feature
breaking the symmetry OF the broad
eXpanse of green lawn is the crystal
lake bordered with ferns and Gala
lilies. and over which hang the protect
ing boughs of old and gnarled live
oaks A pretty little pergola. with it's

wall of the little lagoon are rustic
benches.
During the Eaton occupancy it was
customary to give an annual garden n
party, and the last was the most ambi-
tious ever undertaken A platform
covered with green canvas was placed
over the translucent waters of the
lagoon. and here Ruth ST. Denis and
Ted Shawn delighted several hundred
visitors and guests. Over the velvety
carpet of green grass Miss ST. Denis

homes, the long clusters of graceful
purple blooms further enhancing the
wonderful setting.
The entire second story is divided into
large master bedrooms, each with pri-
vate bath, handsomely done in delicate
tints with hangings to harmonize, the
windows in all the rooms commanding
a superb view of the Pacific No one
could ina gine a picture of such grand
eur as the sight of brilliant sunrise
or sunset observed from the upper win
dows of Riso Rivo.
The rooms on the lower floor have
an elegance and simplicity expressive
Of the original owners. The living
room is especially rich with soft warm
tones of brown and gold. The broad
windows and doors admit a flood of
sunlight and braciue mountain air and
sea breezes.

dreth objected to the question as i'm.
material and irrelevant and the OBJ
lection promptly was sustained. Lowell
then asked whether the witness had
been active in politics for the last
year. Hildreth again objected. Judge
Wade permitted the witness to an
swer, although the court declared he
could net see the relevancy OF the
question. Mr.. James replied, emphat-
ically. 81 have not" ..,
Mr.. James insisted on cr0ss.examin-
alton that there is no more partisan
politics and factionalism in Bowman
than is common in towns of its size
He had lived there nine years and
regarded the community as normal,
so far as political strife goes.
Isn't it true that one side there
has had the other arrested for libel
and so forth?" asked Lowell. IT,
And at this juncture Judge Wade
halted the cross examination and de-
clared a recess in order that he might
ascertain from counsel ''just what this
case is about"

When the judge left the bench Ray
l.. McKaig, who has resigned the state
mastership Of the North Dakota
grange to become organizer for Town
ley's Nonpartisan league. rushed up
to Mrs. O'Hare. He was accompanied
by couple of league members, and
Mrs. O'Hare chatted with them until
court reconvened.
Mr.. James appears to be a splendid
type of North Dakota farmer He has
never, he testified, held public Office,
nor been active in politics. His testi-
mony would tend to indicate that he
has been simply loyal, patriotic
American citizen, voting for the men
whom he believed best would serve
his country, tending to his own bust
ness and making a success of that
business.
Court Room Crowded.
The federal court room was crowd
ed this morning, many of the specta'
tors being farmers. Judge Wade's
course in checking efforts of the de-
tense to inject politics into the case
clearly met their approval. The same
attempt was made by Townley organs
in Fargo while the grand jury was
in session last July.
