FROM A WINDOW IN FEZ
(Edith wharton, in Scribner's Maga-
 zine1

(Edith Wharton, in scribner's Maga-
 zine)
 The motor paused before a green door in Fez, where a cadi in sllken craftan received us. Across squares of orange trees divided by running water we were led to an arcadeo apartment hung with Moroccan em- broideries and lined with wide divans; the hall of reception of the resident general. Through it's arches were other tiled distances, fountains, arcades; be- vond. in greener depths, the bright blossoms of a flower garden. Such was our first sight of Bou-Jeloud, once the summer palace of the wives or Moulay Hafid.
 Upstairs, from a room walled and ceiIed with cedar and decorated with the bold rose pink embroideries Of Sale and the intricate old needlework of Fez, I looked out over the upper city toward the mauve and tawny mountains.
 Just below the window the flat roofs of a group of little houses descended like the steps of an irregular staircase. Between them rose a few expresses and a green minaret; out of the court of one house an ancient fig tree thrust its twisted arms.
 The sun had set, and one after an- other bright figures appeared on the roofs. The children came first, hung with silver amulets and amber beads, and pursued by negresses in striped turbans, who hustled up with rugs and mattings; then the mothers followed more indolently, released from their ashy mufflings and showing, under light veils, long earrings and craftans of pale green or peach color.
 The houses were humble ones, such as grow up in the cracks of wealthy quarter, and their inhabitants doubt less small folk; but in the enchanted African twilight the terraces blos- somed like gardens, and when the moon rose and the muezZin called from the minaret, the domestic squabbles and the shrill cries from roof to roof became part of a story in Bagdad, over heard a thousand years ago by that arch detective Haroun el Raschid.

ble candy. Some cooked meats or over metal bars placed across a charcoal fire.
 As the crowd began to gather, the policeman circulated among the vend- CTS, looking for such as had not paid the police baksheesh for their stand. Having found victim, the gendarme would lead him gently around the cor ner to settle accounts; after which the stall keeper was at liberty to trade for the rest of the evening. Any who could not or would not pay were hustled from the market place.
 Then, until about midnight, was acted succession of minor comedies. In this bazaar, trial by taste is evi- dently the custom, and, since Allah has provided us with hands and mouths, why use forks and spoons? An in tending buyer digs finger and thumb into some steaming dish, pulls out a chunk of meat or vegetable, and chews reflectively. Then he either purchases or passes on to the next stall, while somebody else follows and stuffs 8 hand into the same dish I traced a few men and women who, by tasting meat at one stall, potato at another
  quite a meal for nothing. This feat was difficult, however for the stall keeper had an uncanny instinct foI bona fide buyers, and ready kicks fol such as were not.
 over there is potato man who has lodged his dues to the gendarme, ap- parently because his ready cash is in sufficient. As the gendarme ap. breaches. he picks up his wooden bos on which it rests and fades into thG crowd. When the policeman has Jeff he reappears and resumes business Twice more he must shut up shop, fol quarter of an hour at a time. unti finally his takings allow him to pay the bride. His wife guards the stal while he meets the policeman 'rouns the corner. He reappears and, ns longer obliged to shun overmuch at. tention, cries his wares loudly ant | does a roaring trade.

he fell with his foot under him. Papa heard him scream and ran out and picked him up. The doctor was there in jiffy and said it was sprained a little, but that if he kept off his foot for a few days it would be all right
 So the foot was dressed and Peter was propped up in a big chair. It seemed very quiet after the twins had gone off to school and mama was very busy Papa came home for lunch and found Peter almost crying with pain and loneliness. So papa disappeared upstairs and presently appeared with a funny chair that had wheels He settled Peter in it and showed him how to wheel himself about. The children were full of curiosity about the chair, as they had never seen it before and papa said he would tell them about it when he came home at night. Before he left he went to his little trunk and brought Peter bright cover.
 Its so damp and chilly. son, that I'm going to give you this to keep you cozy this afternoon. My grandmother made it for me. She called it crazy quilt. YOU'LL find lots of interesting things about it.
 And Peter did. It was made of tiny pieces of cloth put together with fancy stitches. Every block was different There was comical cat embroidered on one block, dog on another. Then there were birds and butterflies and fruit and flowers. Peter looked and looked and when mama came in at 1 o'clock, Peter was sound aleep.

Bull fights are more or less Mex with folks of the U. s. A, but for all that there is considerable sport in a good bull fight. There was in that bull fight pulled off the other day at Beaver Falls, Pa.
 The affair was staged on the inter- urban street car track just outside the city.
 Passengers were audience and inno- cent bystanders.
 The conductor was the referee, um- pire, or whatever they call the master of ceremonies at a bull fight.
 The bull Common farm field va riety) was on the track.
 So was the street car.
 The bull was headed toward the car or the car was headed toward the bull this hasn't been decided as yet. Not definitely.
 Bounce him off the track" urged the conductor.
 'Ill say I'll give him lift" smiled Toreador Motorman.
 This followed several minutes oi changing the gong, footing the whistle and yelling at the bull to get off the track and let the car go by. Naturally the bull didn't pay much attention tc anything like that. He thought hey were rying to amuse him, and he moved no farther than the Pyramids

 Toreador Motorman footed and gonged, turned the air brakes on and off and backed up bit, hoping to fool the bull into thinking the show was over and he might as well meander over to the pasture.
 There's where Toreador Motorman made bone-headed play. You should never run from a bull. It is always better to let the bull run from you.
 The bull thought the street car was afraid of him, and having this notion gave chase, as only an enraged bull can give chase.
 Toreador Motorman lost the decision. The street car was picked up at the side of the track, with the referee clinging on for dear life and the bull was two miles down the track hunting for other combats.

END TO NOTED OLD SHIP
fNew York sun.)

In few days the U. s. s. Richmond, once a part of Admiral David c. Far ragut's fleet, will be consigned to the scrap heap. After long service as training ship, the vessel has been sold by the government tc a Philadelphia firm of metal dealers. The Richmond once the flower of the American navy, on her last voyage will depart from Norfolk and sail up the Delaware to Bridesburg, Pa, where the dismantl:ng will begin.
 The Richmond made a proud war record in Admiral Farragut's fleet. In his attempt to open up the Mississippi river from it's mouth, the admiral first employed camouflage in smearing the sides of his ship with mud to conceal them from the enemy. So successful was this shrewd practice that when the fleet was later ordered in 1882 tc the southwest, the mud bath was again repeated.
 The old civil war "battle wagon shows upon it scars received in the battles of New Orleans and of Mobile bay, where it covered itself with glory. In the Spanish American war the Richmond was stationed at inc Phila- Celphia navy yard to serve as the re- ceiving ship there. During the past war she afforded quarters for the training school for firemen at Berkeley. 1 Virginia.
 The Richmond first splasned water in 1860, her hull having been built by the Richmond navy yard and her en- gtce constructed in Washington In Ccober, 1881, the Richmond fought the ram Manassas in the Southwest Pass. Somewhat damaged in the hattle, she emerged from convalescence with sufficient strength to join Admiral Raragut's fleet for the attack on New Orleans. Disabled in the battle by the terrific Confederate fire, sae under went further repairs and fought her last battle of the war on MohiIe bay uhder the command of Capt. Thornton ] X Jenkins.
