His Philadelphia friends backed him financially. Deals in town sites and law-makers ere as profit- uble as his railrorzd heldines, Office toil and nome life were kept apart by Yerkes. He would talk until 2a. m. with a picture dealer and throw him out of his office at 11 a. m. Busi- ness was forgotten when he pulled down the top of his desk. In Chicago he was loved and hated and feared. For 14 years he controlle] the transportation of Chicago and Chi- cago only blustered and waited. Yerkes has always been able to raise enormous sums of money to finance al- most any enterprise with which his name was connected. This ability stood him in stead up to the time of the Mooore Bros. failure, when the collapse of the Diamond Match and Biscult com- pantes swept many Chicago speculators off their feet, hit the banks and moneyed men hard ana caused the temporary closing of the Chicago Stock Exchange to prevent a widespread panic. The Moores have since paid their debts. have made another great fortune and are now associated in many transac- licns with John ‘N’.. Gates. The situation of Yerkes at that time was a hard one to face. He had many irons in the fire and was closely pressed because of his many outstanding obliga- tions. But his colossal nerve never de- serted him. He literally held up those who tried tc press him to the wab and was as cold-blooded as a fish ii al! of his settlements, regardless of any past Obligations In time he was fair- ly out of the woods, put he had left inany scars behind, and his following Was not quite so enthusiastic and blind as it had been. Proud of Street Car Holdir«-s, He had always felt a great pride in his street car properties. and resented with bitterness the attacks that were made that claimed he manipulated them for his own private gain rather than in the interest of all the stockholders.

POLICE SUSPENDED FOR WOMEN'S GIFT

One Woman Says She Gave a Diamond Ring to Police- man Dennison.

ANOTHER GAVE GLOVES

Four Patrolmen Get a Pair Each as Christmas Re- membrances.

Patrolmen George Rovane, Al J. Kuehne han were suspended Friday by Capt. Gaifney of the Dayton Street District, pending charges that they accepted yal- uable gifts ranging from wearing ap- parel to diamonds, from women on their beats. ‘the investigation of the charges has proceeded far enough to Show that these women claim to have paid tribute. to the -police,-but the full extent of the allegatiogs of grafi has not yet- been determined. The suspension ef the four men, all of whom have heretofore borne excel- lent reputations, followed closely upon the receipt by Police Board President Stewart of a letter from. a citizen, who said that the police of the. Dayton street district had been spending much of their time in disreputable places. Mr. Stewart . referred the letter to Chief of Police Kiely, who forwarded it to Capt. Gaffney. Within a few minutes after the letter was placed in his hands Capt. Gaffney summoned to his office 15 woman living in the district. During Thurs@ay after- noon and far into the night these wom- en were kept under a constant fire of questioning, which finally brought out the statements on which the four police- men were suspended. Dennison, James and William Co- Gloves and Diamond. Mamie Swan of 2231 Washington ave- nue told Capt. Gaffney that she had given each of the four patrolmen under suspensién a pair of gloves for Christ- mas. Kate Finnegan of 2297 Washington avenue says that she gave Dennison a diamond ring on his birthday, Noy, 22. Capt. Gaffney says that these are the has been able to obtain so far. but that he will continue the investigation until the entire underworld in his district is canvassed for additional evidence. “I Know nothing as to the truth of the statements made by these women,” he said, “but I felt justified in suspending the accused men. They will have a chance to defend themselves before the board.”’ Chicf revorter Kiely said to a Post-Dispatch Friday: Made False Reports. “This investigation was Sturted on in- formation from headguarters and Capt. 3affney has been conducting it person- ally. “peast night he watched the house of one of the women and he saw [Denni- son and Rovane enter, Later he called them up and asked then, if they jad ever been in that house. They said they had, but that they had not been there the night before. He tolg them to write a report, They did this, denving that they had been at the house at the time when Capt. Gaffney haq personal knowledge that they were there, This lays them open to a charge of making a false report, as well as Srafting.”’

TOWN SUFFERS

WOMAN FAMINE: Ten to One the Proportion of Predominance in Granite City Men.

BACHELORS EVERYWHERE

Nearly All City Officers Lead- ing Single Lives by Rea- son of Scarcity. ‘God, give us men!” cried Poet Hol- land in lofty vein; but what Granlie City wants is women. In this flournishing Illinois which had a pepulation of 6700 cording to the census of 1900, which now claims 19,000, there 10 men to each woman, The majority of these bachelors—paftticularly ‘he and professional men—and as a more than half of the houses in Granite Citv are rooming and boarding houses, While movement to indus: en, the marriageable mea of the town would be much obliged, to say the least, if desirable mnembers of the fair sex would place themselves within reaching distance. If They Only Had Chance, The young bachelors of the town are so busy making money—and there is hatdly a one of them who does not rake in from $5 to $10 a day—that they have no time to go courting at a distance; yet they ‘would’ ;,rove themselves the ,marryingest lot of men in the country if they only had a chance. Over at Alton there is Mayor Beall, the friend of Rooseveh and the stork, who is preaching against race suicide as hard as he knows how; and as the echoes of his exhortations reach the ears of the lonesome young bachelors at Granite City they are as sad as Sad can be. Even some of the city officials can- not.get wives. There are City Attor- ney Maurice Sullivan and City Clerk George Furnish, for example. Arch Crimmons, Township Clerk, is in the Same lonesome category. Ex-Mayor J. B. Judd was forced to go out of office last spring still un- wedded, though not unwilling. The same is true of ex-City Attor- ney W. J. Dolan and ex-City Marshal Cornelius Wetzel. Long List of Eligibles. Besides these list of eligible bachelors City. Among them are: Ciarence Lyle, druggist; Grider, contractor; Dr. 0. J. Theodore Kistner, .architect; George and John Keshner, department store roprietors; Fdward Wagner, brewer; Dr. H. Cc. Earley, Westly Martin, cashier of the Granite City National Bank, “Chapvy” Kohloss, barber. and Pillip Lauff Jr., manager of the Lauff Hotel. The secret of the matter is, the town is @arowing 80 rapidly that’it at- tracts ambitious unmarried men from all parts of the country, and there are not enough women to supply the de- mand. . town ac- and are men ard business con- been no formal an influx of wom- there nas long in Granite men there is a Bart H.

Judge Tracy of City Hall Police Court jarred the lid-lifters Friday when he fired a lyddite shell into their ranks by fining three of them a total of $400 for selling liquor without a license. The men fined were Thomas Dumont, president of the Goethe Club at 506 Wal- nut street; Charles: F. Heberer, sec- retary and general manager, and Mor- ris Neuburger, steward. Dumont and Neuburger were fined $100 each, and Heberer $100 on each of two charges. Sergt. Patrolman had seen each ing as bartender at they accepted. money. without question cash register.

The defendants made four admis- sions that went hard with them: (1) That the principafP revenue of the club was derived from the sale of liquor, (2) that they charged members no initiation fees, (3) no monthly or an- nual dues, and (4) that the fixtures of the club were furnished by a brewery. Constable Ed Morrissey of Justice Carrell's Court is said to be the back- er of the Walnut street club with the classical name. Charlie Thompson, who, with Morrissey, is proprietor of two saloons, is iuneures of the Goe- the Club.

WENT TO BELLEVILLE INTENDING TO MARRY

Busch Employe, at Order of Millionaire Brewer, Required Both to Réturn to St. Louis in Trolley Car, After a Telephone Conversation. Lieut. Eduard Scharrer of Stuttgart, Germany and Miss Wil- helmina Busch, daughter of Adolphus Busch, multi-millionaire | brewer, will be married Monday, New Year’s Day, at the Buseh 'mansion in Buseh place. This announcement was made Friday | by Mr. Scharrer and was confirmed by Edward A. Faust, repre- senting the Busch family. The announcement is the sequel of an inleitiiaics elopement to Belleville. Mr. Scharrer and Miss Buseh went to the Illinois county seat Wednesday, intending to be quietly married. On their arrival in Belleville Miss Busch telephoned to her father and told him of her intentions. | oe ‘‘If you intend to be married,’’ he answered over the wine ‘come back to St. Louis and be married at home. I have no 6p jections to Mr. Scharrer as a son-in-law.’ Maly When Adolphus Busch was first informed by a reporter that

Mrs. Scharrer’’ on the register of a hotel in Belleville he said: ‘‘That trip to Belleville was a lark. Registering as ‘Mr. and Mi Scharrer’ was Mr. Scharrer’s German idea of a joke. I do care whether she does or not.’ ) 3 Mr. Scharrer is at the Southern Hotel with his valet. He artives last Cais: urday and spent Sunday at the Busch home. At his apartments at the Souttio” © ern Friday he told of the failure of his marriage plan of last Wednesday. WANTED GUIDE BACK TO ST. LOUIS. . ‘‘Miss Busch and I started to Belleville, intending to be married,’ he safd, “and while in East St. Louis I telephoned to the Belleville House and asked that rooms be reserved for us. I said that the rooms would be occupied by ‘Mr. and Mrs. Scharrer of St. Louls.” When I got to Belleville it was late and, after inquiries, I learned that we could not get a license that night. “Our horse ‘was tired, and we decided to return -by trolley. I had never been in Belleville before, nor had Miss Busch. We did not know the way te return by trolley, and telephoned to the Busch home, asking -that some one be. sent over to guide us back. . “In response to that request Mr. Hoerner, manager of the Busch glass works in Belleville, was sent to the Hotel and he came with us to St. Louis. Now, the wedding will take place M nday.” Mr. Faust, speaking for the Busch family, confirmed the story told by Mr. Scharrer. “The plans for the wedding have not been completed,’ he said. “and we know what minister will perform the ceremony. The members of the Busch family will be present, and we will probably invite a few fri Mrs. Reisinger of New York, Mrs. Magnus of Chicago and Mrs. Faust, sis of Miss Busch, are all here and they will be present. Further than that nothiv ing can be sald definitely until after a conference to be held this afternoon, “There has been no objection to the wedding at any time: Members of the family are not entirely surprised, though no announcement of the engagement had been made. m z do not “Wednesday, before Mr. Scharrer and Wilhelmina started for Bellevil Mr. Scharrer said to Mrs. Magnus: ‘Iam going’ 10 marry Wilhelmina today,’ The remark was regarded at the time aS @ joke. “After the marriage they will probably remain in 8t. or so, and will then go to Mr. Busch’s winter home at Pasadena, Cal. Mr, Busch had planned to go there Jan. 10, and the house is now being. made ready for him. He will probably precede the bridal couple a. few days." Lieut. Scharrer has known Miss Busch since her childhood—he is 29 years old and she 21. Last summer Mr. Busch and Lieut. Scharrer were members of an auto party that toured more than a thousand miles from Mr. Buschi's home on the Rhine to Paris. Miss Busch was a member of the party, and the young folks were together a great deal What had been friendship de veloped into love. They separated in Paris,,and did not meet again until Mr, Scharrer arrived in St. Louis last Saturday. Mrs. Otto Magnus of Chicago, sister of Mrs. Busch, said Friday: “Minnie had not spoken of her engagement to us Wednesday. Often she. has said to me, ‘He wants me to marry him, but I’m not sure of my heart.’ I advised her to wait until she was sure. She {ts my youngest sister and her Bt tunities are 80 many that I wanted her to be sure of herseif.”’ Miss Wilhelmina Busch has been regarded by matchmakers as the greatest catch in St. Louis. Her engagement to a prominent St. Louis attorney has often been rumored and has as often been denied. After the auto tour last summer it was sald that she was to marry Mr. Scharrer. This rumor has also been denied. * : Miss Busch has spent much ef her time recently in’Calffornia and in tutte 'gart, Germany, where her sister, Mrs. Von Gonthard, lives. She is tall and wil lowy and has a mass of black hair. A portrait of her done. im ofl by Hall. shows her with a bunch of lilies in her hair; the céntrast between the white flowers and the dark tresses being very effective. For some. time after the por trait was made Miss Busch often appeared at the theater with. Hies we ranged in her hair as they were in the portrait. 1, % vence for those accommodations, Ther were assigned to room No. 1. “ The manager of the Belleville reowed mays tliat he received no telephone nigg- eage from Mr. Seharfer. and that+ was not expecting gucsts when @ Scharrer and Migs Busch arrived, — — Miss Busch was wearing « han¢ black and white fur ¢oat, and at ed much attention in the hotel, she was not recognized. ‘After ing, the couple inquired: Beli telephone office, and Louls for a week

Phacton. Mr. Scharrer has been in St. -Louls for several days. He has apartments at the Southern Hotel, where he regis- tered with his vaset on his arrival. Harly Wednesday afternoon he called at the Busch mansion in Busch piace, and he and Miss Busch soon astarted out, driv- ing in a spider phaeton from the Busch private stable. The vehicie was drawn by a spirited horse, bearing the big “a” and eagle trappings famillar to St. Loulsans. They reached Belleville after dark, and at 6:46 drove up to the Belleville House and entered the oifice on tne sec- ond floor. Mr. Scharrer did the talking. He asked that the horse and buggy be sent to a stable, and Adoiph Senirmer, the manager, telephoned tothe Bux livery stable for a hostler to come after the horse. Then Mr. Scharrer registered as “Mr. and Mrs. Scharrer, St. Louis.” He sald that they would want dinner, } lodging and breakfast, and peid in ad- Drove in Busch and called up the Busch home in 8t, tes~ * Within a few minutes a * come for Mise bose nano at the hotel 4

She then went upstairs and rejoined Mr. Scharrer. After a brief conversa- tion, he went out and filed a telegram to Adolphus Busch, which read: “Do not worry. Wilhelmina is all right. “TEDDY.” A few minutes later Alfred Hoerner, manager of the Busch glass works in Belleville, reached the hotel. He asked for Miss Busch, introduced himself and was then introduced to Mr.: Scharrer. The trio held an earnest and animated conversation for twenty minutes or half an hour. At the end of that time they left the hotel together and boarded a trolley car for East St. Louis. ‘ They left the horse and buggy at the Bux livery stable. and a handsome lap- robe, bearing the Busch insignia, at the Belleville House. The horse was brought back to St. Louis by Mr. Hoer- ner Rriday. Both in Good Humor. Mrs. Wess says that during their stay at the hotel the couple seemed to be in good humor. Their conversation was partly ‘n German and partly in English, though they used German exclusively in speaking to Mrs. Wess. “Mr. Scharrer talked very nice to the lady,” says Mrs. Wess, though, she says, she did not hear any particular remark. Albert Goelitz, a lives in Belleville, traveling man who was a passenger on the electric car which brought Miss Busch, Mr. Scharrer and Mr. Hoerner to East St. Louis. He says that Mr. Scharrer tried several times to induce Mr. Hoerner to leave the car and fe- turn home, protesting that his company was not needed and that it was too much trouble for him to go to St. Louis unnecessarily. ° To these protestations Mr. Hoerner al- ways replied: “That's all right, but I have been ordered to see that Miss Busch gets: home. I will carry out my orders. Don’t worry about the trouble to me—it is no trouble at ali.’ During the hour and a half that Miss Busch and Mr. Scharrer were at the Belleville House they made no inquiry about a marriage license and did not ask the way to the Courthouse. Wednes- day night the Courthouse was open un- til 10 o’clock, as it is every night at this time of the year, the clerks being busy on tax Lists. An applicant for a mar- riage license in Belleville these even- ings can accommodated until 10 p. m. No one at the Courthouse saw Mr. Scharrer or Miss Busch or anyone else secking a marriage license Wednesday evening. be He Gave Her a Lion, Miss Busch has known her fiance since her childhood. Their parents were friends,’ and she often met him when visited Europe with them. Muss Busch «has been to Europe once for every year of her life, and is as accus- tomed to crossing the ocean other St. Louis young women are to crossing Bads Bridge. At different times after her Mary In- stitute days were over Mr. Scharrer es- corted her to functions when she was in Germany with her parents, but he did not visit St. Louis until three years when he was a guest at the Busch 5 . silt as ago, home. He brought with him as a gift for Miss Busch a little lion, which fack was made much of at the time. There was much entertainment at the time of his visit, but his attentions to Miss Busch at that time were no more marked than that of a number of other young men. She did not see him again until last summer, when they met abroad by ac- cident. Their acquaintance was renewed, and Lieut. Scharrer accepted an invita- tion to visit at the villa of Mr. Busch and in September to accompany the party on an automobile tour to Paris. Mr. Scherrer is an expert automobil- ist and is interested in the manufaciure of machines. The trif®was made in September, and was delightful. The party used four automobiles: When the Busch family departed for America Mr. Scharrer was invited to visit them at Christmas time. Busch took more interest than formerly in the dark-eyed son of her father’s friend. He had made good use of the beautiful scenes along the way as an aid in his courtship. - Miss Busch has been courted so much that she was not quite sure of her own mind, even when Mr. Scharrer made part of the holiday party that gath- ered about the magnificent Christmas tree In the Busch parlor. in Helped Keep Christmas. “hristmas is always celebrated on Christmas Eve in the Busch family, and Mr. Scharrer arrived Sunday morn- ing.

Then arising from his deeply-up- holstered chair, Mr. Scharrer, paced the floor, gesticulating, frowning, smiling and muttering in one medly of excite- ment.’ A visitor in the room conversed with Mr. Scharrer in German and reassured him.

Mr. Scharrer is especially enthusiastic as an automobilist and has toured Ger- muny and parts of France in his big Mercedes car.

Dec, 24, had the pleasure of perusing one of the moet informative and interesting sport- football, as it is played ing artigles ever printed. The chief point brought out ._ story was the difference between the American way of regarding and treat- sing a great international football game and the English view of the same spec- tacle. The Englishmen displayed their in- terest in the game against New Zealand by assembling 800,000 strong and paying from 2 cents to $6 each for admission -and seats. That they were vitally in- ‘Serested there can be no doubt. The 2° gttendance and admission paid proves their genuine desire to see the con- y Fe. when their team came on the Rx “field, clapping of hands, and a low + ‘ery. of “England, England,’’ was the only demonstration. There was not +» none of the “Kill 'em, eat 'em up” yells ail Americans indulge when one college team meets another. There was no yelling, no concerted cheering, no gongs. Meritorious plays were reward- ed, not with a thrilling cheer, but with a@ mild ‘Well — gir.’ When New and won there was no sign or show of sorrow. The difference between the English and American way of regarding such affairs is this: Americans go to a game rooting for some special team. They mt that team to win at all hazards. They do not care how the game classes “as a display of skill. They want all the the other. Their idea of a good game is one where- fm every man on their team plays per- _fectly and every man on the other plays serably. nglishmen are more inclined to re- rd such games as exhibitions of skill. : want to see a high gtade of sk! ‘teplayed regardiess of result. Their interest lies in the class and quality of the exhibition, not on the final dispo- ' #-gttion.of the match. I cannot say that I prefer the cold British way of looking at such things the warm-blooded partisan regard in which the American holds them. I think I like the wild cheering, the reck- /\/ leas partisanship, .best. The- British ’ Way must be very tame. At the same time, I fear Americans do not take the proper amount of in- terest in the individual skill of the play- ers and true exhibition of points of the game. Take a close baseball contest. Let a visiting player make a gross error which helps the home team to win. Miserable as the misplay may be, it is always America pee with a wild cheer in t helps the favorite team to win. In England a play in such a_ case would result tn a series of low ‘“‘Oks.” “Wretched, wretched,’’ ‘‘Too bad, too ba se ° I think the English understand and admire the points of their games and their proper execution better and more than Americans do. They have no strong prejudices for or against. What they want ts a highly skillful demon- atration of all that is best in the games they patronize. Whether they are justified in. as- suming it or not, this is the attitude of a superior nation. No tempest, of delight sweeps over them in victory, no impenetrable cloud of sorrow in defeat. Winning or defeated, they have a supreme confidence in the greatness and final conquerability of the British nation. They take it as a matter of course when they win, as an accident when they lose. Would that we could retain our cheering and rooting and acquire some of the Briton’s admiration for nr be n sport without regard of the banners on which victory ultimately perch.

It is said that certain members of the Professional Socker League _ re- ‘ fused to play against thelr brothers of the amateur association on the xrounds that it would be doing them — the amateurs—an unmertted favor. Are the professionals quite sure that _ the shoe is not on the other foot?

QUIT THE AAU

Chairman of Registration Com- mittee to Quit Soon as Suc- |. cessor Is Appointed. J. C. O'Brien, chairman of the Regis- tration Committee of the Western Amateur Athletic Union, has nounced that he will resign his posi- tion as an official of that organiza- tion as Svon as his successor is ap- nointed., Mr. O’Brien bas been {dentified with amateur athletics and with the A. A Ways been a prominent worker in the cause of amateurism. His business is of late demanding so much of his time that he is finding it impossible to Bive time and attention to A. A. U. matters, and for that reason he will sever all A. A. U. connections. John J. O'Connor, president of the \W. A. A. U., admitted that Mr. O’Brien contemplated resigning, and said that he regretted the action. “Mr. O’Brien was one of the most capable men the A. A. U. has ever had,” said O'Connor. “His position Was purely an honorary one and there were no emoluments attached to the performance of its duties, yet Mr. O'Brien served the A. A. U. faithfully and well. We cannot afford to lose Such an efficient official, and efforts will be made to have Mr. O’Brien re- consider his contemplated action.” BANQUET |

T0 ST. LOUISANS —_—_—-=— g&--- + Representative Crossley Says City Pedagogues Overrode Teachers’ Convention. BEAT JUNE MEETING PLAN | ——— Declares More Politics Was Played Than in Demo- cratic Committee. Jefferson City commenting the politics played at the annual meeting of the State Teachers’ Association adjourned there Friday. Those know say there has beem just a more politics in the association ing that there ever hus been before, and even more than there wus at the Ing of the State Democratic Committee Wednesday. It was not ind Republican is on little meect- alone the six Democratic candidates for State Superintendent of Schools, who worked | diligently among the hundreds of teach- | of the ers who thronged the corridors Madison Hotel. The work for and against the time and place of meeting deve‘oped into a warm contest by last night, at which time Wallace Crossley of War- rensburg, member of,,the State Legis- lature, and formerly a school teach: who had been at work among the teach- | ers endeavoring to change the time and place of meeting to Pertle Springs in June, admitted defeat. {‘rossley declared unhesitatingly there was more politics plaved minutes in the gathering. of than in the three-hour Democratic committee meeting Wednesday. He declared that educators from St. Kansas City and St. ridden country school] teachers and had refused to give them what they wanted. ts At in Summer Meeting ‘Favored. ballot was a good jority of the teachers in favor of a summer meeting The teachers in the country and the smaller towns were op- posed to the annual association mecting being held in the holidavs, for the rea- son that it deprived them of their holi- day vacation and took many of them away from their homes at the only time of nine months that they were uble to visit with members of their families. It was pointed out that the meager fitendance at the ussoctation this year is due to the time of holding the meet- ings. Out of more than 25,000 teachers inv the State, not more than 600 have been in Jefferson City this week, and many of these remained only one or two days instead of the three days of the session. After the informal’ vote favoring a change in the meeting time, the mat- ter was.referred to the Committee on Time and Place. The change was lIovst in thle committee, which does not re- port, however, until this afternoon, By that time, Crossley declared, all the country teachers who favored a change would have gone to treir homes, and there wold be little chance for vietury by taking the matter to the floor of the association. He lays the defeat of the summer meeting to city educators, who, he says, wish to attend the Na- tional Teachers’ Association, which mecits in June. Candidates Announced, informal says there On an Crossley ma- Democratic candidates for State Su- perintendent so far announced are: W. H. Martin of Kansas City; L. J. Hall of Columbia, U. 8. Hall of Glasgow, H. A. Gass of Jefferson City, J. L. Muir of Lewis County and C. A. Phil- lips of Lexington. , The Republicans out for the place are J. U. White of Brookfield, .Prof. Evans of St. Louis and W. J. Hawazins of St. Louis. These candidates have been working among the teachers here this week and the majority of announcements have been made in the last few days after the situation had been sized up. The latest announcement was that of repre- sentative J. L. Muir, who came out late last. night. FATAL TENEMENT FIRE. Flames Send 27 Families Home- less Into Cold. MINNEAPOLIS. Minn., Dec. 29.—One dead, two badly burned and 15 or more injured or overcome by smoke I!s the result of the gutting of the Higginson tenements this morning. The fire started in the apartments of Mrs. Loraine Buckliff, 823 Minnehaha avenue, in the middle of the big tene- ment, and spread with great rapidity. Twenty-seven families were rescued from their beds and sent shivering and half-smothered into the outer air, where the thermometer indicated 10 above zero.

~ FADS OF WOMEN There are some fine old women in the Service of the Federa] Government, and not the least of them is Mrs. Ann Grid- ey, a clerk in the Land Office at Wash- ington. On last Saturday she celebrated the elightieth anniversary of her birth. Mrs. Gridiey is the widow of a gallant navy officer, who lost his life in the fight between the Monitor and the Mer- rimac. Her son was that brave captain of the Olympia who figured in the battle of Manila. For 40 years Mrs. Gridley has worked faithfully at her desk, never missing a day from her duties. She is always an honored guest in Admiral Dewey's home on Manila Day, May 1, and for two years she has been escorted to the banquet by the Admiral himself. Mrs. Gridley scorns the idea of old-age pensions, and says she will keep on working until she reaches the century mark. The death of her grandson, two years ago, saddened the old woman imore than any of her previous troubles, but she has brightened up, and on her recent anniversary she held a levee.

—— One of the most remarkable collec- tions of fans in this country (with the exception, of course, of those in the larger curio shops) is the group of such treasures Miss Alice Roosevelt is Show ing to a few of her friends. brought the fans from the Orient. Some of them were gifts, others she bought. Some are mere toy trifies, as Japanese maids flourish; others are of great size and intended only for decorative pur- poses. Miss Roosevelt obtained nearlv forty in the Philippines. Her Chinese fans are gorgeous, rome of them jewel- ead, hand-painted, and two centuries old, An exquisite white satin screen, em- broidered in wistaria, is intended for her boudoir when she has a home of her own. One of the most interesting women visitors in this country in many years is Lady Hart, an Englishwoman who hag given time and fortune to the work of the Chinese mission schools of Hong Kong. Throughout the war Lady Hart remained at her post, and continued her good work of instructing the Chinese {nto some idea of modern sanitation. She is not a proselytizer and though nominally the mission is for the spread- ing of Christianity she gives most of her time to instructing women and young girls in principles of morality and domestic science. She reports a rather confused notion on marital obll- gations and on the commandment which deals with the taking of what belongs to another, but on the whole she finds the work compensating. She is on her for the first tirne in almost ten years. a

The Tenth Ward Improvement Asso- ciation is always busy—busier than the bass drummer in a theater orchestra. Its motto is, or should be, “Something Doing Every Minute.’ At its last meet- ing it took a whack at the Million Club, indirectly indorsed the free bridge move- ment, voted down a motion to withdraw from the Miilion Club, gave its repre- sentatives in that body increased pow- er, planned to interest the Municipal Asscinbly in the matter of collecting ashes and other refuse, took steps to learn the names of dairymen recently fined for selling inferior milk and cream, announced the lease of a building for the bank which it has just organized, and of which a Congressman will be a director, discussed the proposed charter amendmen: increasing the pay of city legislators and handled other matters of minor importance; and it was not much of a day for the Tenth Ward Improvement Association, at that.

Flossie Newhbride was not only the president of the concern; she was the first vice-president, the second vice- president, the treasurer, the cashier, the paying teller and the board of directors. Moreover, she was the one and only stockholder. Her husband was the si- lent partner, but he had no financial rating. The firm was formed during the World’s Fair period, and the mating of these two private bankers was called ‘‘a World's Fair romance.’’ President Flossie had $2 in cash; Silent Partner Hubby had not two cents—no, not one. (Some persons might have said that he had ‘‘no sense,’ but that would have been a pun, and therefore punishable.) Is it any wonder the bank failed? Without a solid foundation to build

For myself, I never could see the pleasure of standing for hours waving a rod over a river and probably catch- ing nothing better than a cold at the end of the day, an opinion I proceeded to air to Jack with a patronizing smile. “Women don't often make good fish- crs,’ he replied, loftily. “‘They haven't gv. encugh patience.” I tossed my head indignantly. tience!

OW INGSVILLE, Ky., Dec. 29.—With her two husbands, divorced and pres- ent, living under the same roof with her, and with her former husband now working as a farmhand for the present husband, whom he formerly employed in a like capacity on the same farm, Mrs. Bud Wrenn of Bar-

ren County finds so many tables turned that she sometimes has to stop and figure it all out again. Two years ago Bud Wrenn and his wife came to Barren County from Worren County. Wrenn rente’ a farm and employed Jeremiah Claseby as a farmhand. After several months Ciaseby paid such marked ajitention to Wrenn’s wife that Wrenn ap Hed for and obtained a divorce.

C oc ‘eby, who now r-nts the farm once occupied by Wrenn, gave the latter employment as a farmhand and took him to board at | his home. So far all has been serene at the Claseby farm.
