Leo Naguruk Is Native Boy Who
 Burned 'O2 Fire

Gi unusual interest to our read CTS will be the news that the un- fortunate boy, victim of the ter rible fire referred to in yester days issue under date line of December 31, 1902 reprinted from the Nome Nugget, is today living right in Nome.
 Those who have not yet read the story are directed again to the particulars under "Pannings from Nuggets of Other Days"des- cribing the horrible results of a fire in a cabin back of St. Josephs Catholic church in which six Es- kimos were burned.
 The Eskimo boy referred to as being the one pulled out from under the bed where he had his face up against the corner of the cabin, is none other than the deaf mute known as the Native Dummy, who makes his living in Nome by painting odd signs and generally doing odd bits of work around the city. His name is Leo Naguruk and he claims to be AZ years old.
 It is almost impossible to real ly find out definite information from attempting to talk to him, as he can neither talk nor hear. Neither can he read English. However, he can count according to English numerals, and he says he was between four and six years old at the time of the fire, and pointed out where it had taken place and in what year. He testified to the horrible result by his stumps of hands and his face which is scared and lined from the effects of the flames.
 There are many "old-timers" in Nome today who remember that event in 1902 and some have won dered for many years whether Leo Naguruk was the native child rescued from that death cabin. They may take this evil dence and the evidence of other persons present when Leo was questioned, that he is that boy.

CHICAGO, November 12.-Gertrude
Stems been set to music again. But
1t took q serious minded student at
the University OF Chicago to do 1t.
Quite modestly today. Ellis Kohs Of
Yonkers, N. Y, admitted he got to-
gether with seven verses from Miss
STEMS Portraits and Prayers" to
produce something in what he chose
to call THE Modern Idiom."
Beyond explaining that he had at
tempted to interpret Miss Stems un-
conventional language in music, Kohs
was rather vague about the results.
1T would be easier to discuss" he
said. IF you could hear the music"
The tempo. he went on. adjusted
itself to the spirit of the verses. For
instance, Miss STEMS observation:
"They tell us 50. They tell US 50.
They tell us So" was played rather
slowly. Her question, How can q
person who was there before be in
vited to a dinner of 20?" called for
sprightlier treatment.
Kohs intimated that while his COM
position wasn't the sort Of thing the
masses would be whistling on the
streets next week. II might be inter-
esting as an advanced study in inter-
pretive melody.
He said he had been interested in

NEW YORK, November l2.--Asser.
tion that America Is "out In front in

times" was made last night by Chair
man Nye Of the Senate Munitions
Committee in an Armistice day speech.
Asserting that I'VE are spending
more in the name Of national defense
than any other nation on earth," the
North Dakota Republican pleaded for
"peace-desiring people" to lend this
madness and insist upon confinement
strictly to national defense" His ad-
dress was sponsored by the Emergency
Peace Campaign.
Why are we spending three times
as much for national defense today
as We were spending the year before
We entered the war to end wars?" Nye
demanded.
and spending today leave us rather
suspected of having offense rather
than defense in our minds"
Although the country's geographical
position guarantees IAN adequate ma
tonal defense for very little COST he
said, Americas heavy armament pro-
gram Is stimulating larger defense
plans in other nations"
Nye urged immediate enactment of
. sweeping program OF neutrality" !"
warning that I'VE must curb our appe-
tite for war profits and boons."
He proposed q mandatory embargo
on loans and munitions sales to belli-
gerent nations: delivery of other goods
only at the risk of the purchaser;
strict control of the activities of NUM-
tions makers. coupled with Govern
fnent manufacture of the most neces-
sary armaments and two constitu-
tional amendments-one requiring q
national referendum before the coun-
try can engage in a foreign war. the
other authorizing conscription of for

NO. 10 DOWNING STREET

FEW HOUSES in the world have
been the scene of more historical
events than No. 10 Downing St.,
London, official residence Of the
British prime minister.
At present it Is the home Of
Stanley Baldwin, but there are ru.
mors that the next occupant may
be Anthony Eden.
Whoever follows Baldwin will
have a most interesting and bril-
liant list of predecessors. The first
resident was Sir Robert Walpole,
who moved in September %, 1875.
Since then the house that many
tourists call the White House" Of
England has had IS tenants.
Walpole left it in 1742, and for
some years it was not occupied.
Walpole had refused the house as
a personal gift from George III,
but accepted it as an official home.

'other's approval-or safe from
each others adverse criticism.
We NEED conflict and criticism.
We NEED separations and misun,
derstandings, disagreements and
rumpuseS.
We need these things for our
mental hygiene. A life that is
never stirred up STAGNATES, as
surely and horribly as water that
is never stirred up.
We need differences in us and
between us. Challenging differ
ences. Disturbing differences. Love
atrophies without such differ
ences-loses its zest and allure.
We need-how desperately we
need-PRIVATE LIVES, PRI-
WAITE PERSONALITIES. We need,
above everything else in marriage,
to BE OURSELVES. 1t is our
fundamental duty and right.
Our bodies need time by them
selves. Our minds need time by
themselves. The constant, cling
ing intimacy which some men and
women so admire, is NOT beauti-
ful-not even decent. Nor is it a
sign of affection. It is sign Of
1MMATURTTY.
WHY THEY FAIL
The person who can't bear to
be alone hasn't grown up. He or
she is a tireSome infant, and
should be treated accordingly. No
person is fit to marry who has not
learned to live alone at times
and permit the Other Fellow to do
likewise.
Most marriages fail not because
the pair are cruel or unfaithful,
but because they try to make mar
riage a refuge from life.
They try to find in marriage all
those privileges and projections
and pettings which life, rightly,
refuses to grant normal human
beings. They are forced in the
factory or office, shop or studio,
to face the normal tests and take
the normal beatings. Marriage
seems a haven from all such un-
pleaSantness. Joyously they create
Paradise, according to their prl-
vate specifications. And proceed
to pamper themselves ad lib.
AS a consequence, they rapidly
become so anti-social, so generally
detestable, that they Can't Endure
Each Other Another Minute.

Marriage! If you aren't a pain

Happy Marriage will make you one

green baize to bootleg away for its
historical value.
This room Is also known as the
Gold Room and is heavily finished
in gold leaf, worth thousands OF
dollars. The walls are covered
with oil paintings done by Con,
Stantino Brumidi.
They include the picture Of the
yelled lady known as THE All See
ing Eye" This portrait, carrying
the title Religion" was so de-
signed that no matter in which
part of the room you stand the eyes
seem to be looking straight at
you.
AN ILLUSION
Across the room from this paint
ing is the figure Of an angel. This
angels arms have been painted so
that they have the singularly
natural look of a human arm that
is flat on the under side and
rounded with muscles on the other.
The illusion on a flat surface is
carried out with such artistry that
this portrait also retains the same
perspective from the front and the
two sides.
One other remarkable portrait
in the room is the head and
shoulders of Alexander Hamilton
on the East wall close to one Of
the huge mirrors.
The eyes in this portrait stare
frankly into yours if you pause
directly in front of it. But, there
is also a story attached. Remember
that Mr.. Hamilton, beside being
one of the greatest Secretaries of
the United States Treasury, was
also noted for his love for the
ladies.
Keeping that in mind 1t Is said
that If you get around behind the
big clock that stands to the right
Of the portrait and look at Alexan-
der Hamilton through the narrow
crack between the clock and the
wall the eyes will be looking down
at you instead of straight ahead.
And if you are a lady, comely
and young, Mr.. Secretary will
wink.
FUTURE USE
But it will be on rare occasions
now that there will be any flirting
with the pictures on the wall in
that room. The gate will be kept
up at all times except when the
Senate is in session. During that
time the gate will be removed and
the room will be used as it has
been for the past several years as
a reception hall in which the
Senators will meet the press for
interviews.
The room will still be at the
disposal of the President, however.
although it Is rarely visited any
more by the Man in the White
House.
President Wilson, Senate at
taches recall, was the one in recent
years who used it most. He had a
key to the room. Frequently he
would come to the Capitol and
gather a group of Senators around
him over the Lincoln table to chart
out the progress Of some legisla-
ton in which he was vitality inter-
ested.
Other Presidents used it mostly
at the adjournment Of Congress
in order to sign the pending bills.
