Mime. EverWijn Finds
Women i'm Capital
Politically Inclined
Surprised at Interest
Taken i'm Senate
Debate.


these days is Nine EverwiJn, wife
of the new minister Of the
Netherlands in Washington.
Nine. Everwijn frankly con-
fesses that politics and parlia-
mentary debates are new to her.
In her own home at The Hague
she was too much occupied with
household duties to bother with
things political. and only since
her arrival In this country has
she found time to interest her
self in such matters. The newly
built legation. at Fifteenth and
Euclid streets, is not yet ready
for it's tenants and Nine. Ever
win. living In an apartment and
with time hanging bit heavily
on her hands, has found the
Senate gallery an interesting and
pleasant place to pass the morn
ing hours.
The galleries themselves have
interested her almost as much
as the floor. With some sur
prise she has found them crowd
ed with women from every walk
Of life. She has observed society
women, wives of Government of.
ficials, homekeepers, young girls.
and dignified matrons hanging
breathlessly over the balcony
listening 10 the debate on the
floor.
American women, women with
household and family cares. are
more apt, Mime. Everwijn be
lleves, to interest themselves In
politics than the women OF her
own country. With slight
twinkle in her eyes she says that
in Holland only unmarried women
find time for such things.
But" she admits. the women
Of the Netherlands have only
recently secured the vote. They
cast their first ballot in June
and after that things may be DIFF
ferent."
NINE. EVERWIJN has only
been in the United States
three weeks. The minister. DR..
j. c. A. Everwijn. arrived TO sue
coed the former minister. DIR.
Cramer. early last fall. but Nine.
Everwijn remained in Holland TO
supervise preparations for the
wedding OF their daughter and
only child to Baron Taets van
Amerongen. The marriage took
place early in January, and short
ly afterward DR.. Everwijn. who
had returned home for the cere-
mony, and Nine. Everwijn, ar
rived in Washington.
NINE. EVERwIJN. is immense
ly interested in education
and expects to discover some
interesting things about eduCa-
tional methods employed in this
country. At home she was an
interested and active member Of
the board Of directors OF an In.
dustrial school for girls. The
pupils we're trained for domestic
or Industrial service, from the
ages Of eight or nine to their
majority. Industrial schools Of
this country promise to be
especially interesting to the lady
from the Netherlands who hopes
to learn some new things from
them to carry home to her own
school.
The Minister and Nine. Everwijn
expect to return to Holland early
in June to close their home at The
Hague. Their daughter. Baroness
van Amerongen, Is at present oc-
cupying the residence with her
new husband. Upon their return
DR.. and Nine. Everwijn will close
their city home and prepare their
beautiful country place, just out
OF The Hague, for their absence
next winter. They will return to
Washington in the fall and hope by
that time the new legation build
ing will be ready to receive them.

Principal Mcfarland was asked by
The Reformer by telephone last night
what the attitude of the institution of
which he is principal would be, and his
reply was: Il cannot speak for the trus-
tees. but my personal view IS that we
cannot afford to sell out for $500. If
the bequest was $4,000 it might be con
sidered."
The principal added that the executive
committee was to meet today, but not
on account of the Wentworth bequest,
would be taken by the trustees until they
were notified officially that such bequest
had been made.
This Is the first year that the academy
has been open, after being closed five
years. 1t had a good football team last
fall, and it expects to have better one
the coming season. The schedule already
has been made out in part. Other
branches of athletics also are being de-
veIoped. The basketball team has Just
won the Twin State league championship,
and attention is now being turned to
baseball.
The school opened today following a
vacation. The enrolment is 131.

BANDITS HOLD UP
FREIGHT. TRAIN
Wild West Robbery Near POughkeepsie
apparently They Missed Silk
Laden Train.

PCITGHKEEPSIE y. Y. April B
4 band of 10 train robbers held up a
New York Central railroad freight tram
N a lonely stretch of road between
Beacon and Poughkeepsie yesterday
morning. rounded up the train crew at
the points of pistols, forced the engineer
% uncouple his big mogul engine from
the train and drive away toward Pough-
keppsie. and then broke into seven
freight cars loaded with merchandise IN
shipment from New York to Chicago.
This is believed to be the first time
that a real western train robbery has
been attempted 50 close to New YORK
city. in recent years, at least.
1T is not known whether the tram
robbers stole any goods from the cars
they broke into. The train was taken
% South Albany for a check on its con-
tents to discover whether anything was
missing. Probably the robbers took
nothing. for it is considered practically
certain that the loot they were after
was the millions of money and goods ia
he New York to Chicago. silk and
money" special. which passed the point
Ct the hold-up Is minutes before the
train that was stopped. In the. train
hey held up. the "Yonkers sugar spe-
cial." was nothing but sugar and mer-
~handise of less value than the silks IN
the other train.
The gang is believed to be thoroughly
organized. perhaps with leader of eX-
,,nricnce in train robberieS in the West.
It is thought that they used both auto
mobiles and. motorb0atS in reaching the
scene of theEhold-up and in escaping.
