Ellsworth, the Explorer, Is Vice Presi-
dent of Great Britain Poetry Society.

The demand FOR Miss Bailey's stor-
les among all classes of readers is
shown by the difficulty one finds in
getting them at the public libraries.
A few days ago out of twenty of them
in branch library there was not one
to be had. Up in Boston they did not
take any particular notice of her be-
fore she wrote the Tin Soldier" That
was in 1919, shortly after which she
was invited to become a member Of
the Authors Club. And 1t was this
story that France requested to have
translated for the war library in'Paris.
Miss Bailey receives a large fan mail
from all sorts and conditions of men
and women; some criticizing or COM
mending her books, others sending
manuscript to be read or asking ad-
vice as to the best way to become
writer's. Hearing that she is quite do
mestic they consult her on household
affairs and whether a woman is hap
pier married or Single-a question
she turns over to some married friend.
Her Washington
Novel.
She tells an amusing story of an
incident in her last novel, Fair as
the Moon," the scene of which was
laid in Washington. One of the things
she enjoyed immensely in days gone
by when she lived here was the old
ferry boat that piled between the Cap
ital and Alexandria. She remembered
moonlight rides on it down the river
when the old Potomac to her romantic
young eyes seemed like the golden
stream of life, so she gave the hero
of Fair as the Moon" trip down
the river on the old boat. The novel
had no sooner appeared than she re-
ceived several letters in her fan mail
asking her if she did not know that
that old tub had not run in years.
Right there she told the world, ro-
mancing was the privilege of a novel;
ist-though frankly she did not know

chanted Ground" which was written

Thrilled by the
Great Explorer.

What would you do if you saw a
conquering hero who had been pro-
claimed by the whole world for his
deeds of bravery and for his contri-
buttons to science, suddenly appear
right before your eyes and ask you a
simple question of direction? Your
eyes would certainly open wider. And
that is what happened to a young
woman in the National Geographic
Society not long ago when Mr.. Lincoln
Ellsworth, back from the South Pole,
was in Washington to receive the Hub
bard Gold Medal and lecture before
the Geographic Society.
The young woman had to look twice
before she could believe that the un-
assuming-an heroes are that way

craving hair. skin tanned by the sea
and hardened by the winds of the Ant
arctic, and with interesting blue eyes,
was the distinguished explorer in
whose rescue Americans, particularly,
had been so interested.

published in 1882, Mr. Ellsworth speaks
of the quickening of the blood he re-
ceived as a boy when he read Ranch

books of the late Theodore Roosevelt

Man-Eater Kercheval Dug
Grave With His Teeth

There is the tale of Kercheval. A
popular horse in the West thirty
years or so ago, he had won the
Burns Handicap, then one of Cali
fornia's most celebrated turf
events. But perhaps success went
to his head or it may have been
that he was a bad one at heart. To
this day men will argue about that,
but the facts in the case are plain.
Kercheval was a man-eater. At
first he merely nibbled at his sta
BILE boys and-since those free and
easy horsemen of another era prob
ably figured that there was no &C
counting for taStes-nob0dy took
that seriously. Later, though, he
began swapping at every one who
hove into sight.
Soon not even the biggest helping
of oats or the juiciest hay that mon
ey could buy could tempt him half
as much as a nice bite out of
customers arm. Even in an era
for jaded appetites this was trihe
too much. They wanted to be fair,
though, and so they gave him an
other chance.
1t was no use. Like many a man
who let's temptation run away with
him, Kercheval was determined to
dig his grave with his teeth. So one
afternoon after he had slashed off
most of lady's bonnet as well as
too feet of hair and some scalp,
they decided that there was moth
ing else to do.
Kercheval was indicted and tried
in due form by the sovereign state.
There was much that could be said
in his favor because, as has been
mentioned, he was a horse with
winning ways.
So they deliberated-thoset twelve
good men and true-and then re-
turned with the verdict Of course
there were other alternatives open
to them, even though they deemed
him guilty beyond doubt. But the
thing was new then and the West
ever has been section given over
to novelties. Besides there may
have been those who noted wicked
gleam in the eye of this horse who
stood in the crowded court room
with probably never a worry as to
where his next meal was coming
from.
do not know about that though
/ only know the facts in the case
and they are plain. While Kerche.
val looked longingly at the fat fore
man the verdict was read. There
was no recommendation of mercy
for this horse, who probably knew
his oats so well that he never
cared for them when he could ge
something tastier. The judgment
was terse and definite and clear.
Kercheval had been sentenced {,
be electrocuted. And these are tn,
tales that are told in the evening.

IT ALES that are told when gray
L haired men gather on the We
randas while the stars stand their
watch at Saratoga.
There are the whispers about the
fortune Arnold Rothstein, the sure
thing gambler, may have hidden
some place before he suddenly de-
parted from this earth. Most of
the veterans here knew him-some
of them only too well and too sad
ly-and they doubt whether his es-
tate could possibly have been as
small as the records show.
1t is not that they suspect any
living person but they knew Arnold
as he was, a clOse-mOuthed fellow
who early learned that you seldom
can GO broke when you have aces
wired. So they sit and wonder
where those aces-the reserve fund,
the stake for another day-can be.
Some of them will whisper that
there must be close to 100000
worth of cash or easily negotiable
securities awaiting in some safe de-
post vault for an owner who never
will return. They-those veterans
who knew Arnold so well and some
times so sadly-say that would have
