Board Of the Y. W. c. A. has Just re-
ceived word Of rather remarkable ev-
preston of such good will Miss Mary
Cunningham, sixty years of age. died
recently in Elgln, ILL.,, where she had
worked for many, meany years in a
watch factory. She was, in fact its old
est employee. She had always lived at
the factory dormitory and spent very
little money aside from bare living
expenses. When her will was read, it
was found that she had saved $4,000
during these years, and with the ex-
ceptlon of a bequest to her church, had
left 1t all to the Y. w. c. A. She had no
family ties and these were the things
which were dearest to her, although
the members Of the organization itself
had not realized the place the Y. w.
held in he rheart. Years ago, it seems
she became interester in the work of
the association, but had seldom visited
it in recent years, and few knew of her
intense interest in its work. ut was
because Of what they did for the girls
in the factroy," explained one of those
who knew her best "She knew the
value of that work as people outside
can't"

incidental buildings on the list. Young
Hoffman had been undisturbed in his

wandering about and thought he acted

Ellis Island has seen more tragedies
probably, than any other spot in this
country; but there is something unus-
ually poignant, even for that place, in
the turning back to Europe Of Lorenzo
Hauman. His parents and brothers
landed last month, but he had been left
behind with relatives because of i'll
ness, with the understanding that he
would join them here as soon as pos
sible. He came, and his parents and
brothers eagerly made the trip to Ell
lis Island to meet him. The quota of
immigrants from his country for Sep
TENDER had been reached, however, be-
fore his ship arrived, and he was not
allowed to land, but was ordered de-
ported on the next steamer Not even

HOAX DISCOVERED, POET,
Is, COMMITTED SUICIDE.

New York Thomas Chatterton,
creator of the "Rowley poems," was
the worlds most unfortunate poet,
says the September Mentor Magazine.
At eighteen he committed suicide in a
London garnet, defeated in his attempt
to tearn a living by writing.
Shortly before coming to London,
Chatterton produced poems which he
credited to a medieval poet-priest,
Rowley. Critics argued for eighty
years as to whether or not they we're
genuine.
According to a prominent London
photographer, American women heve
the most beautiful eyes in the world.
