almost tempted to call him ugly. To
begin with, his head IS small. even
for his short stature. though possibly
the proportionately broad Indian
shoulders make it seem more so. Close

wisp generally worn by Hindus-I
never saw Gandhi himself wearing the

lines. long nose shadowing a dis
tinctly oriental mouth with a clipped
moustache, thin cheeks, dark eyes,
rather far apart, with indefinite eye

eral appearance as well as I can des-
cribe it. Deep-set lines run from
nose to chin. The 1inese are those Of

far away, although in years Mr.. Can

smiles. one notes with shock how the
lines deepen. There was something
inappropriate about that smile. II

story of ''The Money Bags"

During my stay in London I accepted
an invitation to have luncheon with
Lord Rothschild at his office. II had
been my custom, extending over a
period OF many years. to drop in in
formally and have luncheon with the
RothschiIds at their bank once or
twice during each Of my frequent visits
to London. On these occasions always
the most interesting topic OF CONVEX
sation was my estimate Of the wealth
OF Rockefeller and other rich Ameri-
cans. Lord Rothschild invariably in
troduced the subject, and, forewarned,
/ was ready TO give him the desired
thrill. He would usually start with
some ''piker'' capitalist whose wealth
did not amount to more than the pail
try sum OF one hundred millions Of
dollars, and then worked up, by queries
until he reached the American Croesus,
John D. Rockefeller. It would be an
unpatriotic American who would belit-
tie the wealth OF compatriot at a
time Ike this. and after having mod
estIy admitted in reply to Lord Roths-
childs question, that Rockefeller was
certainly worth five hundred millions
Of dollars. assuming an air OF ultra
conservatism, I would allow him TO
extort what was to him a delectabie
fact that Rockefeller was worth at
least three quarters Of a billion dol
lars: and when the money-bsgs around
the table stared at me with an express

doubt. I would in subdued tone convey

DYPTAERIA IS
IN WASHINGTON
ONLY ONE CASE REPORTED IN
TOWN AT PRESENT
TIME.

Dyptneria has made its appearance
in Washington, a well developed case
having been reported this week.
The patient is John Wilson Jr, son
Of County Clerk John L. Wilson.
The child had been under treat
ment for some weeks, having been
troubled with its throat, but dypthe-
ria developed only this week, accord
ing to DR.. Weaver of Hope, who was
called in and made an examination
Wednesday. DR.. Weaver stated tina
he was sure in his diagnosis of the
case; he reports that the sick child is
doing nicely at present.
Several children of the town are
said to have been exposed to the
disease, and a hypodermic injection
Of antitoXin, the antidote for dypthe-
ria, is suggested by physicians for
these. Every precaution will be used
In an effort to prevent spread of the
disease and it is not believed that
other cases will develop.
Dyptheria is believed to have claim
ed a victim last night in the person
of the three year old daughter Of
jim Haynes, colored, keeper Of the
county poor house l 1-2 miles west
Of town. 1t is said that no physician
was used in the case, but the child
died last night and from what the
father said about the way it was az
fected, DR.. j. L. Booker, a local ply
slcian, said he felt sure that dyptheria
caused its death.
