SAN FRANCISCO, March 11. Al
bert G. Bagley, head of the Knights of
Columbus war activities on the Pacific
coast, has 3tarted on a tour of the fif

der his jurisdiction with a view to
finding out whether or not there is a
call for the permanent continuation of
K. of C. welfare work in the army and
navy.
During the past two months Eaglcy

"It is commoTily s.iid that authors
are their own wost ci itics, sue once
remarked, "Nevertheless, I think
that "The Lion's Whelp' Is my best
book. I road 124 volumes to get the
factB. It scored a financial loss.
But I had the satisfaction of learn
ing that President Cleveland liked
the book so much that ho read it
three times before Ic.ying it aside."
Mrs. Barr was keenly intellectual.
She believed in suffrage for afl, and
she bellevd In "the old-fashioned re
ligion contained between the. two cov
ers of the Bible." She was an ardent
believer In re-lncarnntion.
"It is not In a way, a bellfc," she
explained. "It came to mo all at
once. That was 30 years ago, nnd I
put my Idea of tho gradual purifi
cation of tho sould through succes

that, I wns writing at the time 'Souls
