In this hall will be hung an old

Tor such location.
Which might be made the basis of
an Emersonian treatise on the inn
agination, for the public overlooked
completely the fact that Sutton
Place and F'ifty-seventh Street are
two of the broadest thoroughfares in
New York and that it is not neces-
sary to hang the wash in the back
ward. Mrs. Vanderbilt and the archi.
tects were quick to appreciate the
possibilities Of transforming the
brownstone row into a harmonious
ensemble of individual dwellings,
opening onto back yards converted
into charming common garden and
commanding an unparalleled view
of the river.
An examination of the plans which
Mott B. Schmidt has executed for
Mrs. Vanderbilt at Sutton Place
gives one the opportunity to visual
ize what actually will be accom-
pllshed, and shows the wisdom of her
decision to abandon commercialized
Fifth Avenue for this garden spot

it into spill, struck match and
held it to the banknote, which slowly
caught fire.
Ketcham turned pale and stepped
forward with a silent gesture of
protest. Then his eye caught the
figure of the waiting Pat outside.
The bill famed up, cracking cheer
fully, and Randolph absent-minded-
ly applied it to his cigar. He took
a long time about it. Then the dis
trict attorney turned to his visitor
and held out the fragment of blaz-
ing bill.

Ketcham stared at him stupidity.
"Have a light" repeated Ran
dolph more loudly, looking him
steadily in the eye.
Ketcham opened his mouth to
speak.

forcing the burning thing into his
hands.
Ketcham took the bill and held it
to his cigar.
'8Th-thank you!" he stammered.
The district attorney leaned over

quiet tones, "show this gentleman

A Liners Food Supply

@ TX thousand pounds Of meat are
- eaten in single day, and every
day, on voyage on board the
giant White Star liner Olympic in
the busy season on the Atlantic
ferry. The ship then carries $500
persons on each trip across the
ocean, including her crew of 878,
and long experience has shown her
chief steward that proper daily al
lowance of meat per person is about
pound and three-quarters. At
that rate, the average total of meat
taken from the refrigerators and
cut up for cooking in various ways
is 5000 pounds day.
This does not take into account
consumption of chickens, which
average 500 day; nor ducks,
geese and turkeys, nor 1000 game
birds consumed on each voyage, nor
of fish, the latter averaging 1900
pounds day.
In addition to these staples, the
people on board manage to dispose
of 1000 eggs daily and 40 quarts
of milk every twenty-four hours.
Butter is consumed at the rate of
200 pounds a day, and 2,700 jars
Of jam and 1900 jars of marmalade
disappear on the voyage like dew
before the morning sun.
Fresh vegetables are an impor-
tant feature Of every bill of fare.
and their consumption also is on q
Gargantuan scale. For each round
trip twenty-five tons of potatoes
are taken aboard. They are con-
surned at the rate of about two
tons day while the ship is at sea
of these 500 pounds are mashed
and in proportion while she is in
port, for her crew are hearty eaters.
Three tons Of carrots, three tons
OF turnips and $500 heads of cab
bage, weighing about five tons, also
are taken aboard for every voyage.
A hundred crates Of lettuce, ton
OF Bermuda onions or similar
New-York tribune., 1921-03-20

quantity of Brussels sprouts are
ordinary items in the ships victuaI-
ing list. When apples are ordered
250 boxes are none too many for =
voyage. Grapefruit comes aboard
100 boxes at time, and oranges
in 200-box lots.
Included in the meat item Of
provisions for the voyage are 5000
pounds Of bacon and $500 pounds
of hams, which are the principal
salt meats carried. Lamb and NUT
ton figure largely in the fresh meat
supply, about 200 carcasses being
taken on board for each voyage.
But the great staple in meat il
fresh beef. 1t may be said that
the public when crossing the
ocean travels on beef. It demands
meat three times a day. Whether
the vcyager is in first cabin or sec
ond or third, he must have his
meat; and whether it comes to the
table as sirloin steak, rib roast or
filet mignon in the first class din~
ing room, as plain roast beef in
the second class or beef stew or
baked meat in third, it is the best
quality Of beef that money can
buy-the complete opposite of the
salt horse" served on oidtime 50
voyages. The roast beef alone tor
a single day on the Olympic totaIs|
1900 pounds.
Refrigerators that have capacity
for 500 tons Of food are freshly
filed for each voyage, and they
keep everything put into them IN
perfect condition. Milk and cream
are kept sweet for q weeks voyage
without the use of preservarives
Lettuce is as crisp after travelling
1000 miles as when received on
board. Fruit keeps for long
periods. =
Ice TO supply the refrigerators is
made daily, the amount required
being 5000 pounds every twenty.

"Show him in" said Randolph.
He didn't know any Mr.. Ketcham,
but he had a presentment-a sort of
yes, he had seen the man before
somewhere. There was something
in the strangers insinuating assur-
ance and obvious familiarity that in
stantly antagonized him.

to see you privately" He gave the
slightest suspicion of a nod. "About

"Go ahead" said Randolph, frown-
ing obviously. 1t was coming. He
knew it. And this was the slick,
smooth article sent to put it over
the plate.
"By your leave" said Ketchaln,
stepping to the door and closing it.
He moved silently and swiftly, and
his face had the inscrutableness of
dried apple. Then, passing Ran
dolph's desk, he returned to his chair
and, throwing himself into it, rested
his fngertips lightly together. Ran
dolph waited. and his eye travelled
from the bald head of his visitor to
the imitation rubber plant and the
water bottle.
Then suddenly Randolph became
aware of something lying upon the
polished surface of the table. He
looked closer, pretending not to.

jaunty swagger and camaraderie as

great disappointment. There is not
one mark of wickedness or cruelty
in his face. The triangular eyes are

of that humorous bulging of the

Rube Helton wins like gentleman
and loses like philosopher.
Rube is enthusiastic in his opinion
of the Ozanl1s.
This is the best country on
earth" says he. People ist work
less here than anywhar. A man can
learn heap here. I was borned
here sixty-eight years ago and haint
never died yet. | was borned in ten
miles O. whar | live now, and eff
die any further away from home
than that it shore won't be with my
consent. Peoples picayunish about
their money nowadays-they want it
all at once and fight over few cents.
In the old days, if two men swapped
twenty-acre farms and one of 'em
got a good saddle to boot it was
called good profit. Lordy, man, /
swapped Tom League nag fer a
hole O. taters once, sight unseen. The
boss died afore Tom got him home,
and when | went to git the taters |
found they was all froze, but neither
OF us ever complained one word
about it"
Rube has his forefathers' belief in
a supreme being. All his life he has
stuck to remarkably consistent at
titude on churchgoing-he never
goes at all. Yet, since he never has
advocated the destruction of church

The demeanor of Rube is thor
oughly that of the cavalier. He is
