 It Was Worth It
 It Is, however, the open season for legal twists. Whether Minnie, the cat. committed suicide or was urged into the great beyond by the jani- tors fist was question before one magistrate. The janitor said that Minnie, after clawing his ear, had scared from the fifth story window as though impelled by a determined hand. The scarcity of suicides among cats weighed against the janitor. Minnie's demise was considered equal to two days in the workhouse, and for the workhouse the janitor depart ed, declaring truculently Well, twas worth it, anyhow" What light sleeper, these hot and yowlful nights, has not shared the janitor's emo tion?
 Two disclosures have agitated the town As usual the lesser caused the greater agitation. The lesser was the discovery among the carvings on wealthy St. Thomas church at Fifth avenue and Fifty-third street of 12 Fifth avenue types" of bons Vivants grinnng amid the wooden saints and cherubs; of dollar sign balancing love knot over the brides door; and of three money bags with, J. P. Morgan's initials half concealed by the chancel rail schoolwork.
 The church is by no means new edifice, and why the carven jests in serted by the architect have not been roticed earlier is a question touch ing the city's powers of observation and sense of humor. Some there be who affect to see many other initials in the serollwork, while others peer at the chanceI rail without deserving even the "J. P. M" Most of the mll- lionaires vestrymen remark with show of nonchalance that European notables are bedeviled with argyles, so why cafvil at few Fifth avenue types on arches of St. Thomas? But even as they nonchalantly explain. the city gathers around Fifth-third street and Fifth avenue and gapes and eagerly scans the edifce for new horrors.
 A greater thing was the shaving of prices in one hotel.

 Washington, August 13.-(Special) The President and Mrs. Harding on their return to Washington this week found that all the painting and re- novating of the executive mansion had been completed. The interior as well as the exterior is receiving a new coat of shiny white paint but, aside from very necessary repairs nothing is to be added to the furnish ing of the state drawing rooms. How ever, as the Hardings will carry out the usual programme of official state entertainment, there will necessarily be extra linens and replacement of china. These repairs were the first of any extent to be made since the restoration of the mansion in the Roosevelt administration.
 Mrs. Harding came back feeling much stronger after her rest in the White mountains which everyone will admit she needed. She was confined to her room for a few days before she went north. Perhaps she real izes now that she will have to nourish her strength more in the future. Our cherished American custom of hand shaking alone is enough to drain the vitality of the strongest person ot either sex and Mrs. Harding has given a hearty welcome and firm handclasp to thousands upon thousands, a real martyrdom which has fallen to the wives of Presidents, as well as to our Presidents.
 This trip of the Hardings was the longest they have taken since March 4, and they were absent from here longer than ever before. They used the Mayflower for travelling whenever possible, and seem to thoroughly enjoy it. The Mayflower. by the way, was built for Robert Goelet of New York, who gave her to the government for use during the Spani sh American war, after which she was again put into commission as 8 pleasure craft for the use of the President, the late Col. Theodore Roosevelt, being the first President to benefit by 1t.

 Cupid, however, is gasping for breath But he had one consolation as he leaped this week from snag to snag. The Rev. Dr. Percy Stick ney has become engaged to Mrs. Philip Lydig.
