yet, how she longed comfort him,
to make him happy again!
She looked Obliquely at his set face,
and what she saw there made her
feel ashamed.
On the bright level of the upper ter
race tea was merrily in progress. Miss
Field had duly come down to preside.
and all was well. Isabelle, as she
dropped into chair, gave a sigh of re-
lief; everyone was amused and alb
sOrbed and happy. Everyone, that Is,
except the magnificent and sharp-eyed
old lady who sat, regally throned,
near her, and favored her Immediately
with a dissatisfied look. Old Madame
Carter had her own good reasons for
being angry, and she never spared any
one available from participation in her
mood.
She was remarkably handsome, even
at seventy-five; with crown of pulled
white hair, gold-rimmed eyeglasses,
and an erect and finely preserved fig
ure. Her voice was Electrically deep
and clear, and her manner vigorous
and impressive.
"Weil, my dear, your friends were
naturally wondering what important
matter kept their hostess away from
her guests" she began. Isabelle
shrugged and smiled carelessly, with
an Indifferent glance at the group.
Harriet is managing very nicely"
she said, contentedly, as Tony. with
somber face and averted eyes, brought
her her tea.
$50 Ward seems to think" observed
Wards grandmother with acidity. Isa
belle laughed indifferently. Her son,
slender and tail, and with something
of her own eagerness and fire in his
sunburned young face, was beside Miss
Field, who talked to him in quiet
aside while she busted herself with
cups and spoons.
"Perfectly safe therel" Isabelle
said.

Talking Films Developed
BY Illinois u. Professor

CHICAGO. July 8.--Development in
the laboratories Of the University of
Illinois of talking motion pictures
through a process of photographing
and reproducing sounds was an
nounced to-day by ". L. Abbott pres
ident of the board of trustees.
The invention Is the work of Profess
sor Joseph Tykocinski-Ty Tykociner, of
the physics department. Mr.. Abbott
said that Professor Tykociner's inven-
ton belonged to the university; pat
ents had been applied for by the
school, the institution would develop
the scheme, and, if successful, it would
be turned over to the public at a nomi-
nal profit.
Professor Tykocins ski Tykociner's ap-
paratus to receive sound consists Of
an ordinary telephone speech receiver.
Fluctuations in electric current caused
by the vibration of the transmitter
cause variations in a beam of light,
and these variations are photographed ID
on a strip of film alongside the regular
movie negative.
By means of a cell which is sensi-
tive to light and the amplifers used
in radio this sound is reproduced
simultaneously with the picture, Mr.
| Abbott said.

Cowboy Historian
Labels SsBad Men,
90 Per Cent Bluff
Princetonian Finds Principal
Use for Guns in Hands
of Cattle Puncher Is to
Make Noises at Parties

When the movie fans get the truth
about the cowboy from Princeton Uni
versity they are in for a surprise. The
word does not come from that place of
learning exactly but rather from
product of it. Philip Ashton Rollins,
trustee of Princeton and sometime
cowboy when the West was raw.
Football was not rough enough for
Rollins in the old days of the flying
wedge, so he tucked his diploma under
one arm and gun under the other,
took Horace Greeleys tip and went out
to see the country.
One of the first Things Rollins dis
covered when he got out West was that
he had little or no use for the gun and
even less for the diploma.
This cowboy historian says the real
cowboy was not much like the one seen
in the movies these days. The real
killers and bad men Of the West in the
days now gone were not cowboys at all
but just "tough guys"
The pistol had one use to which
the average cowboy would from time
to time enthusiastically devote it, and
that was the production of noise.
men put 10 use Cne weapon was
fred either directly into the air or
slantingly down at the ground, for the
West had no blank cartridges. On
such occasions the pistols effects
would be supplemented by Indian
like scrceches and coyotelike howls.
AS to the bad man, he was more
often a hoastar, this historian says,
Ta2ewell Woody, famous as Colonel
Roosevelt's guide in the West, was
standing in q saloon with left elbow
on the bar, right hand hanging by his
side and eyes luckily pointed at the
mirror behind the bar He caught in
the mirror the reflection of a head
momentarily poked into the saloons
doorway and belonging to man who
had publicly stated his purpose of
killing Woody at sight.
This man, apparently having thought
the coast to be clear and that the
saloon contained sufficient audience,
turned his horse, rode through the door
way and boldly said: "Has any gent
here seen that feller Woody? I'm hunt
in for him" At that instant the man
realized for the first time that Woody
was in the room, and he realized also
that, though he himself was facing
Woodys back, the mirror negatived
this advantage. He saw that hight hand
hanging idly down. The bad man
backed out through the doorway and
on his own initiative rode out of the
state.
