.o,d recently of an incident that
shows the man in question had an in

uooro old and he was years old. He

wanted to 20 to the fire but he was
afraid to leave his sister unattended
for fear she might get into things
that she should not touch. The slght
of q hammer and box Of tacks sug''
gested a bright thought. The boy
grabbed the hammer and bunch OF
tacks, set his little sister in the mid
die OF the floor and tackled her dress
TO the floor, going all the way around
the skirt. Then he went to the fire.
The family, returning home, found
the child still tackled to the floor but

Sunday is usually rather quieU
day in the winter Newport" the aD-
scnce of the noon dance on The Break
ers veranda and the departure OIL
many for the various churches tend
ing to lessen the gay assemblage at
the beach. Yesterday however, the
calm sea and wonderful air brought
out an unusually large number OIL
bathers and spectators. Many attrac-
tive bathing suits were seen, both in
the beautiful sun bathing variety and
the more utilitarian water bathing
kind.
Mrs. William Randolph Hearst was
among the daughters of Neptune, in
her becoming bathing suit and the
exquisite cape which throws an en-
veloping cloud of rosy pink around
her graceful figure.
Colonel William B. Thompson and
Mr.. Guy Barham were in earnest con
versation, discussing the grave prob
lens Of the day, as they left The
Breakers and started for the bathing
beach.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. F. Albee were
among the onlookers comfortably es,
conced in the sun-defying chairs
which fringe the beach in front of the
Casino.
The Princess of Thurn and Taxis
was among the attractive women who
strolled along the beach at the bath
ing hour, and in her exquisite lin
geric frock of white, with a ravish-
ing hat to match and her necklace OF
marvellous pearls, was a picture of
sartorial smartness which recalled
the happy days at Trouville and dep
pc. The Princess is living very
quietly mere at Palm Beach, where
she came for health in order to avoid
the rigors of the northern winter bu;
she numbers among her friends the
most important men and women Of
the winter colony.
Mrs. Theodore c. Marceau was {
most charming figure in her blacl
silk bathing costume, with her lovely
hair uncovered.
Miss Mary Warburton, daughter O
Mr.. and Mrs. Barclay Warburton, O
Philadelphia, who, as evervbod,
knows, is a granddaughter of Mr.
John Wanamaker, rode to the beac]
on her wheel in fetching frock o
blue and white.
