MIS- Bennett was with ner husband
when he died.
Dispatches from Paris lately gave
Mr. Bennett's condition as serious. He
had been for some months at his villa
in Baulaiu, In the Rivera after an i'll
ness and advices now announce that
he had had relapse.
James Gordon Hennett one Of the
most original and picturesque figures
in international journalism, and un-
doubtedly the geratest genius among
the publishers of American newspa-
pers of his time, was born in New
York city, May 10, 1841, the only son
Of James Gordon Eennett, founder Of
the New York Herald" He receiv,
ed his education from private tutors
and was carefully trained for his jour
nalistic career by his father, who took
great pains to initiate his son and
heir into thu, complicated mechanism
Of every branch of newspaper work.
To build up a great newspaper had
been the leading purpose OF the faith
er's life, and 1t Is said that his last
Injunction to his son was to sustain
and develop that which he had Gre
ated Old Bennett died in 1872 anc
Nilsson fell hei srtO his large fortune
and to the Herald, which had been
the pride Of his father. Young Zen

Although his enormous wealth and
his position as publisher Of the Her
aid gave him great personal power, he
never used It for his own personal ad-
vantage or glorificati0n. He sought
no honors for himself, cared nothing
for titles and rank and declined any
personal share OF credit for the great
journalistic achievements Of his news
paper. He lived and labored to per-
petuate the fame Of his father, not to
gain in distinction for himself.
A few years after he had assumed
control and active dirtctiOn of the New
York Herald, which continued to
thrive under his management, Mr..
Gordon went to Paris, where he, es-
tablished his residence and headquar-

WEATHER IN FRANCE
 IGNORES CLOTHING
British Army Finds It Problem to Meet Sudden Climatic Changes
 at the Front.

Behind British Lines in France,
 August 19 (Correspondnece of The Associated Press) The soldier has
 little or no choice in clothing, and the conditions Of campaigning are such. that soldiers are seldom ideally dressed The changes of temperature that Western Europe can experience in AS hours completely baffle any one who possesses a restricted ward
 rohe and who are obliged to line in the open. Yet the soldier in France must be prepared for anything in the line of weather.
 In the British army the seasons
 are regulated by official routine rather than by any slavish adherence to climate. The first signs of spring are army orders commanding that all special heavy" winter clothing, such as trench coats, furs and sweaters, shall be handed in by April 1. And
 handed in these comforts duly are,
 whereupon the weather forthwith turns wintry again and the middle of April is perhaps marekd by three |,days' blizzard and sharp frost. r Garment by garment the winter clothing disappears into the store houses winter shirts, ftrench gloves and mittens, leather coats-al inexOrably return to the
 Ordnance Department. During the
 summer this clothing is cleaned. re- paired, sterilized and repacked in
 bales ready for the succeeding au-
 tumn and winter issue.
 The clothes collected are replaced by issues of lighter stuff, more suit
 able for warm weather wear, for in the summer fighting is hot work and gunners prefe rtO serve their guns in knee-length underdrawers and a l shirt. During some battles in the
 hottest days the men have stripped even farther than this and worked bare to the waist, as their grand fathers served the guns in Nelson's fday.
 I Wool and flannel seem heavy stuff for summer wear, but the British army is old in experience and knows the best all-around materials. Cot ton, though excellent for comfort, is
 said to swell the sick lists rapidly,
 for when soaked through. with perspi-
 ration it dries in such way as to
 chill the wearer, while the heavier
 wool, though less pleasant to wear, i dries without ill effect.
 I The same standard outer uniform serves the British soldier for all sea- sons in France. One article that is 1 the same for British soldiers in all
 parts of the world and in all climates
 is the; regulation grey army sock. Elk
 perience has proved to the satisfac- tion of the British authorities that | this standard sock is the best for all conditions of marching. It does not
 shrink ,or get hard from repeated
 washing, and it is extraordinarily durable.
 | British army clothing may not be
 handsome or even we'll cut, but it is
 most carefully designed to furnish
 the maximum of practical use, com
 bined with the first hygienic quali- ties. The best testimony to it's ex-
 ce]lent quality and design is the fact that the soldier himself acknowl-
 edges that "ration clothes" are the
 best that can be found for army wear.

BEST THEATER TODAY.

That ever popular screen star, Douglas Fairbanks, has scored another triumph with his new photoplay, Say, Young Fellow" The picture is an excellent one, as all of Mir. Fairbanks pictures are, and it demon- strated it's popularity in most em- phatic manner.
 In this picture MT. Fairbanks is a newspaper reporter, who does stunts which the average cub reporter might we'll envy. He interviews a million aire who has never been interviewed before, and he unearths fraudulent scheme in small facatory town which is run by big man, sort of boss In accomplishing these journalistic triumphs, the Fairbanksian athletic stunts are continuously in evidence, including vaulting, scaling the front of "a building, battling with band of infuriated factory hands, and the like It is perhaps unnecessary 10 say that there is not a dull moment in the pie ture.
 MT. Fairbanks is splendidly sup ported by Frank Campeau Majorie Daw, Edythe Chapman, James Neil and other capable players. The photo- graphy was excellent and the direc- ton, by Joseph Henaberry who also wrote the story, was highly artistic.

 |' In preparing concrete for the keel platforms gangs of women work be- side gangs of men, and in one in- stance the women beat the men by four cubic yards. Numerous other incidents have been cited whereby the women outpointed the men workers on the same kind of work.

NEW YORK, December 1o.-A: mod
crate reduction in the sczle Of maxi
mum prices for steel, beginning Janu-
airy 1. is favored by the general COM
mittee on steel and steel products Of
the American Iron and Steel Institute,
which meets with the War Industries
Board tomorrow.
This was announced by Gilbert n.
Gary, chairman Of the committee, at
a meeting here Of steel manufactur-
ers, with the Recommendation that the

with power.
MI. Gary opposed any effort to re-
duce wage scales at present. declar-
ing that. while labor is receiving high
er compensation than ever before, the
rates are no higher than are proper
and just in view Of the cost Of living.
Steel Barometer Of Trade.
He urged that tho steel industry. as
the barometer Of trade" begin redlic-
lions in prices. even at the cost Of
sacrifice. Such a course. he declared.
would resultT-fn price reductions by
persons buying steel. and $50 on down
the-line," until a stablei business basis
was reached.
and literally he. said, they will
stand and contend for fair treatment
Of the employer. =
"You have chance to do something
valuable toward sustaining the bust
ness equilibrium Of the country.
while some might suffer losses at
present, perhaps it would prevent
greater losses in the future. We
would be leaders in movement cal
culated methodically to readjust con-
dittons In an orderly way. We might
have some. influence on steadyfnE

the workmen are more interested in
this question than any Others for

the cost Of production, from the raw
material down to the finished product
