SPRING ST. ES
LAVISH WITH
COLOR
Clothes for Both Day and
Evening Are Bright and
Cheerful.
By ALICE LANGELIER,
International News Service.

PARIS, Feb. 27.-There will be
no dull days this spring IL the fash
ion makers have anything to say
about 1t.
Color is being used with a lavish
hand for all spring garments. Both
day and evening clothes are bright
and cheerful, but not gaudy. The
shades are warm and deep without
being vulgar.
In the collection of Paul Caret
there are some brilliant reds and
green's for evening dresses, and If
the daytime frocks are more somber
they have dashes of strong colors in
the belts or trimmings. Tailor-mades
are dark but always come with
blouses and chemisettes of brightest
hues.
There is brown which is warm
and soft like the freshly turned
earth in the spring, and green like
the first green leaf on the lilac bush.
Creamy yellow is favorite for even
Ing wear and orange, which is like
q marigold flower. Blue ranges from
the delicate ''loVe-in-the-mist" shades
to the sapphire tints of Iupin and
larkspur, and there is a mixture of
blue and pink which is delightful to
the eye.
II black is worn it must have
very bright trimmings. Navy blue
comes with Indian red trimmings,
and sand. color with rich Paisley
hues in soft silk muslin. A warm
canary damask-cloth makes several
lovely spring models in the Caret
collection, and there is gay, youth.
ful dress and cape in deep cream
cloth, printed with very large black
checks and trimmed with lacquer
red leather
Quite as effective are the colorings
OF silks and cloths which come from
the French colonies, although these
are naturally much more brilliant.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27.-Cal-
ifornia will soon cease to be q

The increased number of hunters,

will be INTRODUCED in the Legislature
to bring about the change.
To make law enforcement more
easy, the bill also provides for a
tag system. The best points in
the systems Of other States have
been incorporated into what Is be-
lieved to BE the best tag yet de.

The tag will be issued to an
applicant only upon proof of pos.

BARTON TRACES.
ANCESTRYOF
LINCOLN
illinois Historian. Upholds
Theroy President Was
Hanks Scion.


CHICAGO, H., Feb. 27.-Tradition
that Abraham Lincoln was descend:
ed through the Hanks family, ad-
vanced by some historians and dis.
puted by others. was upheld here by
Rev. William e. Barton, Of the Chi
cago Historical Society. DR.. Bar.
ton in lecture explained points
Of uncertainty III that theory as adj
vanced by the biographers, Nicolay
and Hay.
DR.. Barton's conclusions were
based on discovery of ancient rec
ords in courthouses and family
Bibles in Kentucky, he said.
His lecture was characterized by
himself as "a severe and earnest
piece Of historical investigation
which has required years Of in
dustry.''
DR.. Barton is the author of an
exhaustive work on The Paternity
OF Abraham Lincoln"
The basis of the accepted but I'm.
correct theory of ancestry, accord.
ing to DR.. Barton. was a win of
Joseph Hanks, great-grandfather Of
Lincoln. in which he bequeathed q
heifer to each OF his three daugh-
ters-Polly, Elizabeth and Nancy
and made no mention Of another
daughter. There was another daugh.
ter, however, Of the name Of Lucy,
living away from the family, DR..
Barton declares, and she was the
grandmother of Lincoln.
The pedigree disputed by DR.. Bar
ton traces Lincoln's ancestry from
one Thomas Sparrow and his wife,
Elizabeth Shipley, who were the
parents OF Nancy Sparrow. said to
be Lincoln's mother. DR.. Barton's
research led to an obscure corner
OF Kentucky.
There reside literally hundreds Of
descendants OF the former Presi-
dents grandmother, including the
first cousins OF Abraham Lincoln"
DR.. Barton said. 'aThey have read
no books about him and never have
been interviewed, except by me and
those working for me. And every
one knows himself to be related
to Abraham Lincoln, and they know
how.
Separated from the Hanks fam
lily and the Hanks tradition by hun
dreds of miles OF distance and a
full century Of time, their family
Bibles confirm the Hanks tradition
at every disputed point.
LAS for Lucy, I have her mar
riage bond in photostat and a GER
tificate Of her legal marriage.
"She was married to Henry Spar
row, a Revolutionary soldier and an
honest man, and she brought up
her children well. including two
ministers Of the gospel. She ID no
disgrace to the family. She had
somewhat superior advantages.
Thus we restore her to her right
full place on the line OF the Presi-
dents ancestors"
DR.. Barton produced evidence
showing that on the paternal side
of the family Abraham Lincoln's
grandmother was named Bathsheba,
possibly with the maiden name of
Herring. She was the only wife
Of his grandfather, married in Rock
ingham county, Virginia. in 1870.

PARDONCLERK'S
| IS HARDEST
! Of tJObS
Man Who Passes on N. Y.
cIemency Pleas Has Held
| Office 20 Years.
BY RAYMOND /. BORST,
International News Service.

ALBANY, Feb. 27.-The hardest
fob in New York State.
That's what scores of persons
think OF the one held by Owen L.
Potter.
Potter's Official title is legal as
sistant to the governor, but he Is
the man who handles all the appli-
cations for pardons and clemency
which come before the chief execu'
tive of New York State every year.
He has come to be known as the
pardon clerk to the governor.
For upwards of twenty years Pot
ter has been doing this work, and
90 FAR as the State is concerned he
has done it well-un'l- ually well.
The time has long since passed,
Il indeed there ever was such q
time, when Potter was ever swerved
from duty's straight path by SYM
pathy. He deals only in cold, hard
facts-facts that are revealed by
the official record of every mans
life who seeks a pardon or COM
mutation OF sentence at the hands
Of the governor.
At all clemency hearings Potter
sits close by the governor and keeps
the chief executive straight on all
facts in the case. Potter plays fair
and square with every application
The never colors the truth or the
1tacts in the case for any one.
Potter has served under many
governors, and they all have gone
out Of office with the utmost respect
for his Judgment In these cases. To
scores of employees at the capitol
Potter is Familiarity known as
Judge" and there is no doubt that
scores Of times the governor relies
on the Judgment Of Potter in decid-
ing applications for clemency and
combinations.
Never is an application for par
don or Communication, Of sentence
made to the governor but Potter
gets all of the true facts regarding
the past life of the applicant. And
he has q way of finding out these
facts that is almost uncannY at
times.
Hardly a day passes but that an
application. for someone's life is in
Potter's hands, but to him it is all
in the days work. II these cases
worry him no one knows 1t, for he
always keeps them to himself.
Some people are inclined to look
upon Potter's Job as the meanest in
the States service, and so 1t may
be; but most every one admits that
It's the hardest Of them all.

WORLDS ONLY
TOY MUSEUM
IN MOSCOW
Fine Collection Of Dolls and
Wooden Animals Delight
Children.
By ADELE PARKER.
International News Service.

MOSCOW, Feb. 27.-The artist,
Nikolai Bartram, a painter, and for
thirty years q teacher Of Kustarney
art, il responsible for the Toy Mu-
scum Of Moscow, the only toy
museum in the world. Bartram had
been the curator of one of the
collections Of Kustarney art in
Moscow, and two years ago, at his
suggestions, toy museum, draw.
ing chiefly on peasant art, was
established at Smolensk boulevard.
and now Bartram, who, along with
an artstocratic bearing, has a
way with children" is in charge
of this museum and Is called by
the children by the affectionate
name Of Uncle Musee."
The museum Has a fine oollec-
ton Of the dolls and wooden sculp-
tured animals made by the
peasants. It has also a small stage
with all the trappings Of q theater.
Puppet plays are given, and there
is large collection Of the mario
nettes. There are also masks,
some OF them very old and valu-
able, as part OF the stage proper
ties. There are dolls of all nations,
heather and Christian.
America is represented by two
very clever negro dolls and a
woman suffragist.
There is q talking book from
Germany. which at every page can
be made to give a different cry, ac-
cording~ to the animals represented
in the picture; there are music
boxes from everywhere; there are
military displays; and recent addi-
tons are distressed bourgeois dolls
and triumphant proletariat made by
the peasants.
Last. year $4,000 children visited
this museum, including 800 chill
dren's excursions with guides and
systematic instruction. But the
museum is popular in the deepest
sense Of the word. Every day long
before the opening of the museum
children gather at the door to be
ready at the first moment. Some
children visit it every day. The IA
vorfte toys are the animals, es-
pecially wooden cow bigger than a
cat which all the little girls take
turns at milking. The theater is
very popular, when the children
often converse with the puppets on
the stage. There are playhouses,
some Of them very ancient in de-
sign, and Bartram is adding to the
walls lovely portraits of children in
oil-classic and modern, and inter-
national. The artistic work Of the
children is also a feature.
When the museum was first
opened the children asked to be
given the tops in the cases and on
the shelves. Finding this impes-
sible, they asked where they could
be purchased. But soon they wished
to make the toys, and to the mu-
scum was added carefully laid out
courses in Kustarney art, a studio
where children are encouraged to
themselves produce the toys. There
is also at the museum school of
Kustarney art attended by a class
Of 100 intelligentsia who are pre-
pairing themselves to become in
structors Of the peasants of the
villages. but who, here, are stu
dents Of the peasant art in order to
qualify themselves.

phia dispatch quoting Frederick

trict, as saying that women agents
would have to be ''vampy enough

Iators," IL added to the enforce

woman might take her place as an
all'around efficient agent" said
