VISITED BY MANY

Hundreds of people assembled at
Bayview park yesterday afternoon. the
largest number being present late in
the afternoon. There were several at
fractions in the city, and at the con-
clusion OF those functions, many ended
the day at the bathing place. The
crowd was as usual in the best humor
possible, and seemed to enjoy the af-
ternoon very much. A little excite
ment was caused, it was reported,
when a lady who was watching the
swimmers, seemed to have lost her bal
ance and fell into the water from the
dock. Beyond thorough soaking,
however, she was unnurt.

Charm Of Old San Antonio.

The charm Of an old city lies chiefly
around the historic spots and buildings
in which the romance Of its early his
tory is centered. Rarely do we enter
a city that can boast of ancient edi-
fees and haloed ground the history of
which is known the country over Rar-
er still is the community whose qaint
buildings, picturesque scenes and ro-
mantle atmosphere are its main at
fractions, Turing thousands to its gates
each year. Such, however, Is the boast
Of San Antonio, Tex, one of the quaint
est and most interesting cities in the
United States, says Architecture. No
where else may you find a greater ap-
peal to the romantic and the pic
turesQue and have such hospitable
welcome extended you; nowhere will
you find such a blending of the ancient
with the modern as in this delightful
city Of our own Southwest.

POINTS OUT WRONG NOTIONS
Harvard Professor corrects impress
sions of the Peoples Of Historic
Lands of the East.

"To speak of the pure old Egyptian
the old type Of the Pharaohs is ex-
tinct today" said Prof. w. Max Null
Ter of Harvard in 8n address on "The
Origin of the Ancient Egyptians" in
the University Of Pennsylvania Arch
Biological museum. "The admiXture
Of negro blood, due to intermarriage
with slaves, was as popular in Bible
times as now"
The speaker corrected many popular
misconceptions about the historic
lands. "You apply the term Hamitic
to all blacks" he continued. "'SOns
of Ham to the discriminating scholar
of African conditions means white
people, not black. African residents
do not begin to cali man black un-
til he is chocolate or copper colored.
"The degrees range all the way
down to dull coal black. All shades
lighter than copper, such as the tan
of the American mulattO, are called
white. The yellow girl is the compli-
mentary way to address or to paint
q lady over on the Nile.
"The handsomest people in the
world are the Abyssinians, slender,
high-browed, copper-hued-these peo-
pie who have reduced stealing to a SCI
ence and begging to a fine art. The
color Of the healthy man is a black
and greensh bronze hue, Of a shade
often seen in statues, but generally
believed not to be found in real life.
"These men, by the way, have the
must Iuxuriant hair in the world, and
yet they never can grow more than
the scantiest, scrawniest boards"

MOVE FAMOUS CHESS GAME
Club Where Leading French Players
Have Gathered Since 1851 Is Now
In New Quarters.

The Cafe de la Regence no longer
shelters the chess players whose tenn
pie it has been since 1854. The play
ers now make their headquarters at
the Cafe de universe, facing the The
ater Franchise, says New York Herald.
The Cafe de la Regence has been
In its present site in Rue Saint Hon.
ore since the early years Of the second
empire. Before that 1T was at the
angle of the Palais Royal square,
where the Hotel du Louvre now is, and
In that locality it operated from 1851
until it was appropriated in 1854.
In the eighteenth century the Cafe
de la Regence was freQuented by the
encyclopedias Diderot, Grimm, Mar
mOntel, even VOltaire and later Robes
pierre were habitues of the place. 1t
is said that Napoleon gave chess
party in the old cafe. The cafe
charged by the hours for the use Of
it's chessboards and an extra charge
was made at the night games to pay
for the two candles which each pair
of players used. La Bourdonnais, IA
nous chessmaster Of the Restoration,
played there and after him Alfred de
Musset, Saint-Amand, ROsenthal, de
Bornier and other celebrities of litera-
ture and chess.

Vast Sum Eluded Morgan.

In the mountains behind a Cuban
city, we are told, is still buried a great
amount Of treasure, hidden there $50
years ago, when news came Of an i'm
pending attack by Sir Henry Morgan
the pirate honored by an English king
for his onslaughts upon the Spaniards.
Most of the defenders were killed, and
the spoiIs were never found. Morgan
was outwitted again at Panama, and at
the bottom of the harbOr there lies
today, some have estimated, $30OOO,-
600 worth Of gold and silver.
When he attacked Panama the treas
ure was hidden under the plankings Of
the ships at the wharves. The city
was captured before the vessels could
make their escape, but q long search
failed to unearth the spOils, so all the
craft were sunk In revenge by the
pirate and his men.

Source Of Loyalty.

There is a loyalty which springs
from affection that we bear to our ma
tive soil. This we have as strong as
any people.
But 1t Is not the soil alone, nor yet
the soil beneath our feet and the skies
over our heads, that constitute our
country.
"It is It's freedom, equality, justice,
greatness and glory. Who among us
is so low as to be insensible of an in.
terest in them2 Four hundred thou
sand natives of other lands every
year voluntarily renounce their own
sovereigns and swear fealty to our
own. Who has ever known an Ameri-
can to transfer his allegiance perma-
nently to foreign power2-William

BRIDGE COMPLETED
ACROSS SUEz CANAL
Work OF British Engineers Considered
important Event in History
Of the Orient

The suspension bridge acros the
of the railroad system. Direct trains
are running between here and Jeru.
salem. The building of this bridge is
one OF the most important events In the
history of the Orient.
A long time before the war engineers
planned this span, which was to con-
meet Egypt and Palestine. When war
broke out nothing had been accom-
plished. A desert 200 miles wide lay
between the Suez and the end station
of the Jaffa-Jerusalem railway.
At the beginning of the wal the line
from Zagazig to Ismalja up to the
bank of the canal opposite Ell Kantara
was built. This line was to facilitate
the transport of troops needed for the
protection of the canal and their
means of subsistence.
When English troops advanced into
the Sinai peninsula railroad builders
followed in their footsteps. In No
yember, when GAIA was taken, the

miles of that city. In the meantime
Turko-G German forces had extended the
Jaffa-Jerusalem line from the north to
a point neal GAIA. During February
General Allenby constructed the miss
ing link connecting the two railroad
lines. Then there was direct connec-
ton between Jerusalem and Ell Kan
tara.
To connect with Egypt it was neces-
sary to use a ferry. This caused de-
lay and annoyance. Besides, 1t cost
time and money. Actual military ne
cessity accomplished what had been
too much of a task for the engineers
before the war. A splendid suspension
bridge was built, which now furnishes
direct connection between the land of
Moses and the land of Pharaoh.
