Delayed gossip from the Presi-
dents Birthday Ball:
Mrs. William D. Sterrett, Ida
Sterrett to several hundred
friends, was enjoying herself at
the Birthday Ball, when Will
Rogers came by.
Good evening, Marie Dress
ler," he said.
Mrs. Sterrett, usually so pleas.
antly conversational, fixed Mr..
Rogers with a silent stare. She
says she had a mental picture
of Marie Dressler that was
neither too young nor too beau
tiful. In fact, it is reported that
Mrs. Sterrett looked down her
glasses anG all but turned up
her nose at Mr.. Rogers.
Don't be snooty with me-"
said Mr.. Rogers. Marie Dress
Ter is one of the finest women
and best actresses in the world.
She's a good locker, too. I'm
paying you a compliment"
Whenever Mr.. Rogers saw
Mrs. Sterrett during the eve
ming, he called out blithely,
Hello, Marie Dressler!"
Miss Fotheringham of the
Joe Cook company, has grown
too plump to fit into her cock
tail shaker. Miss Fotheringham
is now enjoying an apartment
life with Russell Grouse who
with Cory Ford put on Joe
Cooks last revue. Russell
Grouse told me so himself. He
was in town yesterday.
Miss Fotheringham is, or was,
kitten. It was she who used
to jump out of the cocktail
shaker into which Joe Cook, a
stage magician at the moment,
had poured a liquid with mys-
terious powers. The chorus
girls in the Joe Cook company

Fotheringham that they fed her

Fotheringham soon had to be
replaced by a simmer and less
appreciated cat.

AS a result of the long friend
ship of Sir Moses Ezekiel and
Mr.. Arthur T. Brice, of George
town, an exquisite bronze bust
of Robert E. Lee is on its appre-
ciated way to Stratford Hall, the
ancestral home of the Lees, in
Virginia. Years and years ago,
Arthur 3rice and Moses Jacob
Ezekiel from Richmond worked
side by side in Washington, in
the office of w. w. Corcoran-
the w. w. Corcoran who was the
greatest benefactor Washington
ever had, and gave to the Strug-
Cling Capital, among many other
bequestS, an art gallery, tracts
Of land for colleges and orphan
asylumS, Oak Hill Cemetery and
the Louise Home for Aged
Women.
BRICE AND EZEKIEL
The friendship between young
Brice and Ezekiel continued hap
PLY for many years. Arthur
Brice went off to fight in the
Civil War, close to the inspira-
ton of General Lee. Moses ia
cob Ezekiel studied art, be-
came a famous sculptor. He
lived in Rome, and his work
there SO endeared him to the
King of Italy that the artist was
given the title Sir Moses Ezekiel.
With the friend of his youth.
Sir Moses always had the tie of
real sympathy. Knowing Ar
thur Brice's devotion to General
Lee, and himself an admirer of
the Confederate general, he did
a bust of Lee in uniform in 1885
and sent it from Rome to his
friend in Georgetown.
Mr.. Brice has delighted in
the sculpture for almost fifty
years. Recently he decided it
was selfish to keep so choice a
thing for himself and his
family. With Mrs. Brice he
formally presented the bronze
to the Robert E. Lee Memorial
Foundation. When Stratford
shall have been more completely
restored, Mr.. Brice's gift will
be placed in a specially hon
ored niche in the mansion.
Mr.. Brice is 81 years old and
still gallant, handsome gentle.
man. Like all the men who
were associated with Lee he
has vivid and enduring memo
rieS of the great commander.

ton is just about to begin it's
spring activities to help the
cause of Stratford. On Mon
