FtSmmer Nights Start Something New

three modern pirates, their faces
covered by handkerchiefs, their right
hands gripping revolvers, came "up
from the sea" and approached one of
the automobiles parked at the curbing.
Stick them up," commanded the
pirates.
From one machine to another went
the pirate crew. None Of the autoists
offered resistance They appeared re-
lleved that the visitors were pirates
rather than inquisitive police.
The pirates were tall, slender, blond
and young. Two of them removed
the handkerchiefs from their faces to
get a better glimpse at the girls.
Perhaps the police never would have
heard of the affair had the pirates not
held up the car of Jack Wolf, head of
an automobile storage battery concern
at S37 Z. Forty-seventh st. Wolf

Old Joe Carter had suffered from

dies and when his sister in Mobile
wrote that she knew of a cure that
had been tried with great success, and
would tell all about it on her next
visit, old Joe was all excitement.
Now, Mary" he exclaimed to his
sister, eagerly, few minutes after
she had reached the house, 'yOu-all

Thomas jefferson Home for Sale.

New York.-After refusing for MANY
years to sell Monticello, estate OF
Thomas Jefferson in AIbemarle coun-
ty, Virginia, Jefferson M. Levy now
offers the historic mansion and
grounds at private sale, but would oe
glad to sell it to the nation for $780,
900. 1t has been in the possession of
his family since 1888, when Commo-
dore Levy of the United States navy
acquired the house and grounds seven
years after the death of Jefferson.
"The place has become a great care
an dexpense to me-" said Mr. Levy
Wednesday, "and l am getting too old
to stand the burden"
Mr.. Levy added that several years
H. Schiff had told him they would be
willing to buy the historic estate and
present it to the nation as a Jefferson
shrine.
Both offers were refused, Mr. Levy
said, because had the idea at that
time that the nation itself might buy
the Jefferson mansion as a summer
White House for the president.
Mr. Levy said that he had expended
more than $1,OO0,OOO on the estate,
now comprising 700 acres. and it's
price to private buyers certainly would
run into the millions. If the mansion
went to the government, he said, he
would give the art objects, which ex-
perts say would bring at auction $780,
600 or more.
Mr. Levy estimated that $4,000 per
sons visited the mansion annually, and
added that it had been necessary for
him to charge "a fee of so cents.

whether he could recite the alphabet.
"No," he piped. mo, 1 can't say

Wouldn't my conscience harass me to

In speaking of Mary kinny's case
Mrs. Mcpherson said.
"After the Lord healed, He said: Go
thou in peace and sin no more lest
a worse thing come upon thee Mary,
as understand 1t, has not Sinned, but
she wants to be cured in order that
she might tread a path that is beset
with temptation. 1t may be that she
was born lame because the Lord de-

not consistently pray for her cure if
she wants to be made whole in order

"a the house passed joint resolution
FOR relief OF states in the cotton belt,
which had given aid to farmers forced
from the fields In established non
production cotton zones through ef-
forts to eradicate the pink boil worm.
AS passed by the senate the resolu-
tion provides for fair rental value Of
cotton land on which cotton planting
was prohibited, but the house amend
ed it by stipulating that the actual
and necessary loss suffered by the
owner should be paid.
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, in
| urging enactment of relief legislation,
explained in letter presented to the
house that it was proposed to limit
payments to 100000 out of the 1884,
900 appropriated this year for wipiny
out the pest.
Representative Walsh republican,
Massachusetts, who led the fight
against the measure. insisted the sta es
should handle its own troubles, adding
that abolition of the department of ag-
riculture would be a good thing for
the farmer
Leading the fight for passage of the
bill Chairman Haugen of the agricul-
tural committee said that when the
government fixed zones in which no
cotton could be planted, owners of the
land should be compensated in view
of the fact that a large part of the
acreage was unsuitable for other crops.
Democrats gave the bill solid sup
port, while Representative Mondell of
Wyoming, the republican leader, join

dell asserted that congress was inau-
gurating policy that was Exceeding
