King Seeks Queen in Italy

Walls, screams and cries greeted
the party on arrival at the pier. The
Italians learned that the followers
of Frank Kaslov, whose wife died
year ago, were giving him a farewell
party as he set forth to find a new
gypsy queen. Gypsy law, it was ex
planned, requires that he must have
consort of royal blood and he is
going to Venice to find one. He is
AZ and has six children.
Before boarding the ship Kaslov
said ne was carrying with him jewels
and costly raiment for his queen. He
is going to look for bride in Venice

Homeless Derelict Mourned
 By Kind-Hearted Policemen

NEW ORLEANS, June 24. (P-- "Old John," the city's most unusual guest, is dead, and policemen attach ed to the second precinct station are mourning the passing of a friend.
 The old man drifted in three years ago and begged a nights lodging. That was granted, as is customary, but the old fellow made himself so friendly and useful that he simply stayed on, altho according to the law he should have been sent to a charity home.
 He ran errands for policemen and prisoners and did odd jobs around the station house, picking up what change he could and wearing what friendly policemen gave him.
 When he died an effort was made to learn something definite about him, but he had rarely talked about himself and all that could be learned was that he was John Francis, A, native of Montreal, and had two sisters in Illinois. He said once ne had not seen them in 30 years.

White HOUSE WORK

Extensive Refurnishing and Rem.
ovation to Be Carried on in
Absence of President.

During the absence Of President
and Mrs. Coolidge there will be eX-
tensive refurnishing and renovation
OF the interior of the White House.
Among other improvements the ele-
vator will be reconstructed and a new
vacuum cleaning system will be in
stalled.
Everything is in readiness to com
mence this work just as soon as the
President and Mrs. Coolidge leave
Tuesday afternoon. 1t is understood
that the entire appropriation of
$4,000 made available by the last
Congress will be consumed. Despite
his economy policy, President Cool
idge thus far has been unable to trim
down the specifications for this work
to any noticeable extent.
The interior of the White House,
while not considered shabby, is known
to be in sore need of Improvement.
Also the elevator is an old model and
has been in daily use for a number
of years. While it is safe enough, it
has not functioned as efficiently as 1t
should. The vacuum cleaning Sys-
tenn has done service in the EXecu-
tive Mansion for 30 years and besides
being inefficient il makes a noise
while being operated that is objec-
tionable TO the entire household.
