Mind Working One Way.

Hopelessly imbecile. an inmate Of a
Devonshlre (England) poor-law home
for the insane possesses wonderful
memory. If the number of any psalm
be mentioned this man can at once
recite the whole psalm. Given the
number of hymn, he can repeat all
the verses. But. more wonderful still,
If he be given q date in any year, he
can tell the day of the week on which
that date occurred.
Here is a poser for mind experts.
This poor mans brain lacks all the
qualities which make for sanity, save
one. The faculty of memory may have
been normal at the mans birth. and
constant practice may have marvel
lousy developed 1T. Whatever the ex-
PLANTATION may be. the marvel is that
a mind capable of such a tremendous
feat did not grow into an organ Of
reason.

Seems Something Of a Pity That
Writer Did Not Complete
Pungent EpistIe.

Not long ago, the story runs. trav-
cling salesman visited a certain small
town and sold the proprietor Of its
general store an order of jewelry. the
Youths Companion relates. When the
jewelry arrived 1T was not as repre-
scented. and the merchant consequently
returned 1t. But the wholesale house
nevertheless, attempted to collect the
bill. and drew a sight draft on the
merchant through the local bank.
which returned the draft unhonored.
The wholesalers then wrote to the
postmaster, inquiring about the finan-
cial standing of the merchant, and
the postmaster replied laconically that
it was o. K.
By return mail the wholesalers re-
quesred him to "hand the inclosed
account to the leading lawyer" of the
place for collection.
This is the reply that they received:
1.-THE undersigned is the merchant
on whom you attempted TO palm off
your worthless goods. The undersigned
is president and owner of the bank to
which you sent your sighr draft. The
undersigned is the postmaster to whom
you wrote. and the undersigned is the
lawyer whose services you sought to
obtain for your nefarious business. If
the undersigned were not also the
pastor of the church at this place he
would tell you where to CO."

VISIONS NOT ALL REALIZED
But Even So, There Is Something Fine
in the Dreaming of Beautiful
Dreams.

There seem TO be great many dis
appointed people in the world today;
the explanation apparently is that
many of us do not find our dreams and
hopes realized in quite the way and at
the time we expected. How many
times have there been conjured up be-
fore us kind of magic day in which
all fine and splendid things would be
easily possible, and life would, of ne
ceSsity, lose very much that was sOr-
did and un-ideal? We had beautiful
visions that seemed so easy of realiZa-
ton. But in the cold light of the day
into which we have now come there
are many hard and unyielding I'M
ideal facts, and what we fondly pic
tured fails to shape itself in actual
life. OF course, we are disillusioned
and disappointed. But ought we to
be? Was there. after all, anything the
matter with the vision that we cher
ished? Is ii possible that the trouble
with us is that we have not the faith
and the wisdom to see the vision be-
ing realized. though in ways and fash
ions of which we had not dreamed?
Columbus did not discover what he
looked for, but were his faith and
dreaming not justified nevertheless?
And would he ever have discovered
anything but for the faith and the
dreaming Montreal Herald.

> Foster Son Frustrated With
Grief At Home.

Mrs. Matthew Morrison, mother Of
Morrison Marshall, the foster son Of
Vice President and Mrs. Marshall, Is
i'll at her home, 212 New Jersey ave-
nue., with grief over the death of her
son.
Morrison has a twin sister, Louise,
who lives with her mother and who Is
yet too young to realize the fact that
her brother has passed into the Great
Beyond. Louise played around the
floor of her home today with wonder
in her eyes as she gazed on her sor-
rowful mother.
When a reporter called at the Nor
rison home he was met at the door by
a nurse who would not allow him to
see Mrs. Morrison because of her con-
dition.
1t was rumored that Vice President
Marshall might adopt little Louise
and have her take Morrison's place
in the executive apartments, but at
the Morrison home this morning this
Information was regarded as ground
less. Mrs. Morrison Is loathe to part
with her little daughter and regards
her as the only thing she has left in
the world, Mrs. Morrison's nurse said.

dead child, is employed in one Of the

BISHOP IN ROW
OVER WEDDING
Remarriage Of n. Y. episco-

Ar0uses Storm.

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-From sur
face indications a terrific storm
has burst over Bishop Charles Sum-
ner Burch, of the Episcopal Diocese
of New York.
1t is due to the report that the
bishop sanctioned the remarriage OF
his daughter, Mrs. Grace Burch
Walkup, a divorcee, to Captain Ar
naldo Marson, of the Italian army.
Presbyterian Oficiated.
The fact that the ceremony was
performed secretly by the Rev. DR..
Frank A. Hosmer. of the First Pres
byterian Church. Of Greenwich. Conn,
and not by the bishop or any Episco-
pal minister, was accepted by clergy
men here as evidence that none OF
their creed was permitted to act by
the bishop.
Predictions were made last night
by clergy. who were amazed and
grieved over the incident that the
wedding OF the bishops daughter will
reopen the ancient quarrel as to the
future attitude of the church toward
divorce.
Rev. Grant. Sought Repeal
At eacht annual convention for
years. thesRev. Percy Stikney Grant
and a minority have fought to repeal
the canon law section prohibiting the
marriage of divorces. They invar-
iably have been defeated.
Whether at this years convention
Bishop Buroh win uritc with Grant
and his followers. or risk a rebuke
for having allowed his daughter
seemingly to violate the canon law.
only the future can determine.

a statement at his home last night

Iron County, Michigan, became the
center of national official attention
today at the farcial conclusion of
the first act of its now notorious

The situation here today stood as
follows:
Major Dalrymple. who headed the
prohibition expeditionary force" here
in what was announced as an armed
effort to stamp out the Illicit booze"
traffic, departed a visibly beaten man,
disheartened at the failure of the
Washington authorities to back him

ington, started for Iron river to make
a thorough investigation" of the sit
uation.
Another "thorough investigation"
was to be started with the arrival of
District Attorney Myron Walker, of
Grand Rapids.
Groesbeck to Take Hand.
Still another thorough investiga-
ton" was to be made by Alexander
Groesbeck, attorney general Of Michi-
gan. when he arrives here.
With Major Dalrymple on his de-
parture went the other members Of
his staff. Before leaving the major
said:
II am going to Washington imme-
diately after conference in Chicago
with Mr.. Gaylord. II l am not backed
up in an undertaking of this kind to
enforce the law, l am absolutely
without effective power, I want n
showdown, and that l shall seek from
the Washington authorities"
He intimated that he would resign
IL he could not get satisfactory an
swers from the prohibition enforce
ment chiefs in Washington.
"Not Hicks,- Says McDonough.
States Attorney Martin McDon-
ough. who defied Major Dalrymple to
answer him, took occasion to laud the
virtues of Iron county before the
newspaper correspondents here.
I'VE are not a lot of hicks up
here" he said. There are more col
lege graduates here in comparison
with the population than in any
other part of the country"
1t was learned that McDonough, be-
fore he "called Dalrymple's blum" in

Foster Parents At Bedside.
Vice President and Mrs. Marshall also
were at the bedside as the end came.
The Vice President cancelled all his
speaking engagements and rushed
back to Washington when the baby's 5
illness developed.
Everything possible was done to
save the child. but throughout the
night he drifted closer and closer to
the brink. There was a strange air
OF quiet about the Marshalrs' suite In
the Willard Hotel. "
The Vice President came again and
again to the door Of the sick room to
ask for news of the tight for life, but
toward morning the doctors and
nurses could give him little hope.

long night vigil had been maintained

The Vice President, starting on his
speaking trip, was kept informed of
the boys condition, and when Morri-
son grew worse he dropped every
thing and speeded back to the Capt.
tai.
The specialists came from Johns
Hopkins at Baltimore. and the best
nurses that could be found were hur-
ried to the sick room. But nothing
could check the disease.
Yesterday first word OF the baby's
illness became public.
Arrangements for the funeral have
not yet been completed.
Littel Morrison Marshall was never
legally adopted by tho Vice Presi-
dent, although he has been the most

the attention OF Mrs. Marshall when
his mother brought him to a diet
