Dublin, Dec. 16 - The stubborn fight of Eamonn De Valera and a group of colleagues in Dal Eireann against the Irish peace treaty in it's erations, and today it appeared cer- tain a vote will not be taken until late Saturday.
 De Valera is understood to have proposed to Dal Eireann that the treaty be amended to exclude certain features to which he objected. He has been holding out for an All Sim Fein complete domination of all Ireland. but he has expressed willingness to give Ulster province wider powers in local affairs.
 De Valera is understood to have suffered a reverse in a test vote but he is still making a strong fight.
 The advisability of putting the referendum was discussed at length today, it is learned.
 London, Dec. 16-CBy The A. P.) Sir James Craig, Ulster premier, and Colonel Spender. Secretary to the Ulster cabinet, arrived in London this morning for consultation regarding Listers position under the pending newspaper men he had come in con- nection with the important questi on of Listers boundaries, which the treaty stipulates are to be fixed by commission. He hoped, he said. to have an early opportunity of seeing Austen Chamberlain, the government leader in the House of Commons, and possibly Premier Lloyd George.
 '"The present position appears to throw us back to where We were in 1914,' he said.

Another plan was decided upon, There
was a beautiful country estate near Goshen.

and had developed II most beautifully in
the last year Of his marriage with his first
wife, Elsie Whelen.
The Goelets decided to retire to this
fairyland and play the country house gam

all else fails especially so in these days OF
prohibition, when large and commodious
cellars exert powerful lure.
And so the bride and bridegroom closed
their Fifth avenue mansion and betook
themselves to their manor house. But no
one from nearby Tuxedo motored over to
call; they were left in splendid isolation.
Men, of course, came; that goes without
saying, for Mr.. Goelet's men friends are
many and faithful But the women did

vides the cue not only for those who are
in sympathy with her, but for those who
fear to risk her displeasure and the dis
pleasure of those who stand by her.
Nor is It that the present Mrs. Goelet
has not all the qualifications to shine In
the society she Graves. Indeed, she would
put in the shade many of the women who
are a part of IT, She is beautiful, accom-
plished and gifted with subtle feminine
charm peculiar to the best women of the
Latin races. t 1,2
The struggle has been bitter. The bride
began her life as Mrs Goelet with practi-
cally no women friends of the kind she de-
sired. But, naturally, there were mum.
Der of men who were under obligations to
her husband, and when 1t was found that
no responses came from the elect to the

This was in the height Of the season
when the opera was In full swing. As
everyone knows, the appearance In just the

methods of placing ones self in the social

But nothing happened. a.

Then, about the first of July, Mr.. Goelet
made another move. There was ochre

Their grandmother was devoted to them
and they lived ostensibly with her when
she was still in America. But even after
their fathers second marriage the two boys
practically dwelt with him. ...
And they unfeignedly liked their new
mother. She was just as good to them as
she could be, and as unfeignedly loved
them. She made the, two youngsters riot
ously happy and deluged them with gifts
and lavishsd affection upon them. They
wrote to their grandmother how jolly their
stepmother was and how much they liked
her. s' ....
But the former Princess realized that
while to be stepmother to the two Goelet
heirs had it's deep value, to be the mother
of either an heir or an heiress would be
still more important. In December son
was born to the Goelets. One would have
thought baby was something no grand
mothers heart could resist. But no con-
gratulations came from her, nor from any
OF the family in America. The deadlock
still held.
And now Il appears that the existence
of this Goelet child has never been recog-
nized by Grandmother Goelet in her viii.
Nevertheless, the birth of this child
brings about a curious complication. No
matter what his fathers family may feel,
he is Goelet, and certainly should
strengthen his mothers hands in many
ways. He win inherit a share OF his
fathers wealth with his two half.brothers--
and he will probably get the bulk Of it.
But, even so, they each will have double,
and perhaps three times, his fortune.
Twenty years from now society will have
a pretty problem on its hands In deciding
Just what difference II must make In its
treatment of the three Goelet boys.

OVER 100000 EX-SERVICE
 MEN HAVE FILED CLAIMS

Two and one half years ago, the armistice, calling the great war to an end, was signed.
 Since that date, over 100000 ex- service men have filed their claim for compensation for disabilities in- cured or aggravated by service. In report just received from the Dir ector of the Bureau of War Risk In- surance at Washinton, D. c. figures show what tremendous task has been before the Bureaus to cope with the ever increasing work, and as yet the peak has not been reached.
 To June 30, 1920, close on 500,000 claims were filed. During the month of June, 1920, alone, 19,000 claims were acted upon, 15,000 being allowed and 4,000 disallowed. The monthly payments for compensation alone amounted to 9 million dollars per month during the fiscal year. Over 3,000claims were granted for total permanent disability, the average monthly payment being $102.00 per month.

disabilities, or whose disabilities were aggravated, who have not filed their claim for compensation, and to which they are justly entitled. Many are under the impression, that because they have not kept up their War Term Insurance, which they carried during the service, they would not be entitled to compensation. That is not so, for insurance is something you pay for, and compensation is some thing the Government gives to the disabled men.
 The Director of the Bureau desires that all ex-service persons, who have incurred disability or whose disa- bility was aggravated file their claim at the earliest. There are others who have filed their claim, but who are not as yet receiving their compensa- tion for some reason or other.
 To quickly adjust all pending claims, write to the local Represent ative of the Bureau of War Risk In- surance at 403 Heard Building, Phoe- nix, Arizona, and forms and other in formation will be gladly furnished.

So he stood for Everything; but
in the Summer, when She skated
off into the Woods to hear a man
with Trained Ivy all over the
Physiognomy lecture to the High
Foreheads about the Subverted
Ego, he used to hunt up few Pals
and tell them his Troubles and
weep into his Volstead Cocktail.
They would slap him on the Back
and tell him she was Nice Wom-
an, but he knew better.
She became fidgety around the
House, with nothing to do except
her Husband, so she made up her
mind to be Benevolent to Beat the
Cars. She decided that she would
allow the Glory of her Presence to
burst upon the Poor and the Un-
cultured. 1t would be Ninspira-
ton to the Poor and Uncultured
to see what Real Razamatz Lady
was like.
She didn't Propose to put on Old
Clothes, and go and live with Poor
People, and be One of Them, as
they do in Settlements. Not on
Your Previous Existence! She was
going to be Benevolent, and be
Dead Swell at the Same Time.
Accordingly, she would Lace
Herself, until she was the shape
of Bass Viol, and put on her
Tailor-Made and the Hat that
made her Face seem Longer, and
then she would Gallop forth to do
Things to the Poor. She always
carried a 99-cent Lorgnette in one
Hand and a Smelling Bottle in the
Other.
"Now," she would say, feeling
behind to make sure that she was
all strung up, "Now, to carry Sun
shine into the Lowly Places"
AS soon as she struck the Plank
Walks and began stalking her
Prey, the small Children would
crawl under the Beds. while Moth
er would dry her Arms on the
Apron and murmur, "Glory bel"
They knew how to stand off the
Rent Man and the Dog Catcher,
but when 235 pounds of Sunshine
came walking up the Street, they
suddenly realized that it was He'll
to be Poor.
The Benevolent Lady would 20
into a House numbered 1135A with

had sized up the Front Room
through the Lorgnette. she would
