Ethiopia S
Late Ruler
Gave Title
New York Attorney Made
Duke for Gift to
Menelik'S Mate.
BY HELEN WORDEN


NEW YORK, Sept. l2-"Yes.
~ sent Queen Taitu a little gold
purse. and she sent me back little
colored ribbon with a nice button
that faStens in the lapel Of my coat,
Eugene H. Wilson told me. King
Menelk said that title went with
it-Duke of Harrar. believe Mr..
Wilson smiled. I've still got the
button"
Eugene Herschel Wilson was the
attorney for Guillermo Enrique
Eliseo. the man whe first made
Ethiopia front page copy.
That was 25 years ago" Mr.. Will
son said at his home in MorSemere,
N. j. "EliSeo had his eye on this
very same land that Halle SelasSle
and the Standard Oil have been try
ing to get together about
Mr.. Wilson was in partnership
with Eliseo on the Ethiopian deal.
1T was very rich territory" he
said, and we expected to make
fortune"
Eliseo was an E. Phillips Open
helm figure. Spectacular, fabulosly
wealthy and adventurous, he pro-
vided Sunday magazine material in
the early part of this century.
His real name was William H.
Ellis" Mr.. Wilson said, and his
father was an Irishman from Brook
lyn." Eliseo told people that his
mother was a Cuban.
AN any rate, he called himself a
Cuban" explained Mr.. Wilson, land
put a Spanish twist to his name"
Eliseo travelled by camelback
from Djibouti to Adds Ababa when
he went to call on Meneik. There
were no railroads in Ethiopia then"
Mr.. Wilson said. 1T took him a
month to make that trip"
Eliseo carried many gifts to the
Ethiopian emperor and his empress,
among them Mr. Wilson'S gold purse.
Ethiopia had no cable and tele-
graph system in those days" Mr..
Wilson said. 1T was impossible to
send cables to or from the country.
When EliSeo came back we went to
Washington to get some official
recognition of Ethiopia. AS a result
the Postal Union was put through.
With the territory mapped of and
everything jake between Emperor
Menehk and EliseO the latter sailed
again for Ethiopia to complete final
details for the Ethiopian concession.
The British didn't like the idea
of our having the concession" Mr..
Wilson said.
The whole deal Topped through a
series of unfortunate circumstances.
"On the second trip Eliseo took a
young fellow with him to deliver the
treaty." Mr.. Wilson said. Going
over to England the two were guests
at the captains dinner. The boy
got tight. fell overheard and was
drowned"
Eliseo went on to Ethiopia But
he never got his concession" Mr..
Wilson said. The Ethiopians said
there was blood on his hands"
Eliseo died several years ago in
the City of Mexico.

Palisades Park Mich on Lake
Michigan. Mr.. Peat has been de-
signing and building the pine fur
niture for the cottage. The whole
scheme Of the furnishings embOdles
the idea of utility, simplicity and
comfort.
All the furniture is designed IN
squares and angles, with no curves,
tapering or carving. Mr.. Peat has
made everything in the house with
the exception Of the stove, reirlge-
rator. a hammock and a glider,
Mr.. Peat pointed out.
The beds have no foot or head
boards. and one of them Is designed
with bookcases on the side. A
similar idea was used for the studio
couch. which has book shelves con-
veniently built on one side. Most OF
The chairs are of different designs.

BY ELIZABETH CARR

There's a reason for every &C

as she was taken behind the stage

1t takes not one color, but many
in dramatic shades to make a per-

There are no set rules, it seems
There are no wild changes, merely
subtle highlights. AS Mrs. Eliza
beth Prutzman, fashion director
pointed out, the inspiration is tC
be smarter in a more individual way
than ever before"
The perfect accessory dress, light
weight wool, was shown in black
dubonnet red and brown and the
accessories did the trick. White
pique collar with slight lace trim
lent the tailored note to the black
dress; pink chiffon jabot collar
added a softer note to the dubonnet
outfit and metal cloth cowl collar
dressed up the brown.
Importance Given Belts
Belts do something to a costume

knit dress in the rust shade. Cole
continental bracelets, a green ante
lope bag. with top handles, of course
button fabric gloves and a green hat
completed the frame.
We'll be seeing lots of color ir
anklets this fall and winter" Mrs
Prutzman predicted as she pointed
out the light blue anklets worn BY
one model. The blue picked up the
blue of the sweater and formed g
becoming color contrast with thS
dubonnet skirt, gloves and bag.
Black Outfit Frightened.
Grey was combined discreetly
with brown when a bagdad blue as

uphold before the world the cause Of
peace among all nations"
The veteran primate, who preached
the sermon on the occasion OF the
Kings coronation. June %. 1911, called
the period since his reign began years
of almost unbroken anxiety and
strain"
yet beneath the troubled surface
there has been in the life of our nation
q deep underflow of the spirit Of unity
and confidence in his steadfast
strength" he said.
That spirit has found its center in
the throne. Elsewhere ancient mon
arches have been swept away by
storms, by revolution. Here the throne
has been established in ever stronger
security
What Is certain Is that the per-
sonality of the King has given the
throne the power of personal attach
ment. He has brought 1t into the
hearts of his subjects. For they have
discerned in their sovereign a man
whom they could understand. respect
and trust.
Thus IN the passage OF years he
has come to be not King only but
father of his people, and to loyalty has
been added q warmth Of love. This
is the secret of the real personal
emotion which today fills the heart of
his realm and empire"
The primate paid special tribute to
Queen Mary. who. he said. "has not
| wearied in her care for the health and
happiness in the homes Of all people,
and to the Prince of Wales and other
members Of the royal house.
"As we lift our hearts in thanks
giving. so let us bow them in humble
prayer for our King and Queen" he
said

lowed by the hymn, % God OF Jacob
