she baa always been credited with being of a thrifty turn of mind, and
her places of abode have not been of a character to set back her bank account
to any very great extent For years she occupied a flat In Hoboken, N. J.,
said to have cost $14 a month. A few years ago she created a mild sensation
by going to live at one of New York's leading hotels In rooms for which it
was said she paid $30 a day. But her stay there was measured in days, and
back she went to Hoboken. For a time, after the marriage of her daughter
Sylvia to Matthew Astor Wllks. she made her. home with the Wllkses in ultra
fashionable Madison avenue near the fcoma of J. Plerpont Morgan and other
notables.. But she soon tired of that and again went back to her little flat
Now announcement Is made that she will reside permanently at the West
Ninetieth street house, which adjoins the stylish Central Park West and over
looks the park. Whether this latest home will be to her entire liking remains
to be seen., but she gives promise of continuing there now that she has turned
her business cares over to her son anX;cM-- .forward to a life of quiet and ease.

PICKED A SAFE SPOT.
He Wanted an Easy Fall if He Missed
the Big Bear.
ine rea bear of Asia lives In lofty
mountain solitudes, rarely coming be-
iow on altitude of 8.000 feet. For the
greater part of the year he is content
with a vegetarian diet and leads u
blameless and estimable life, but in
the spring be becomes mischievous,
and then a man who pursues him In
his native haunts must be a mountain
eer as well as a hunter. The follow
lng incident from "Sport and Life In
the Further Himalayas," bj R. IL,
Kennlou. Illustrates the double duuger.
My Gllgit stalker used to tell of a
bear that was a terror to the goat

in the Rakhlot glen, not only a robber,
but u trucculeut one, who committed
his crimes In the broad light of day
and cared for neither man nor dog.

Behind them yawned a precipice; Id
front was the big beast, grunting and
slavering at the mouth. They faced
one another "while men conld count a
score." and still T. did not shoot The
bear advanced. x '
"Shoot!" cried Gul Sher, but T.'only
looked round over bis shoulder. The
bear came on. Then T. slowly put his
rifle up and shot him dead through tUe
bead. .
; "And why bad not T. shot him be
fore?" I asked.
"That Is what 1 wanted to know,"
the stalker said, "and he told me that
he was Just looking for the easiest
place to go dowo the precipice In case
the bear was not killed." ,
I was sitting bearing the story at
the exact spot where It happened and,
going to the edge, looked over. The
