The servlna of ten and of toast In the i

heap and opprobrium attai-hed to this our
peu'larl feminine luiu-tion. and sinfcle
women of our time go on Independent of
rltlclsm and know that no one need
I prim, or fnaay. or peculiar, unlesa
she so desires."
It la alwava foolish for a irl to look
upon heri-f as old 1 have known younar
women of who b.an to settle down.
They smd to lack JoyousneM. and so
they were never younr. And. on the
other hand, there are women of w who
ape like atria: thev have retained the
spirit of youth, which Is. after all. the
ihlna th.it roiinta.
I am coins to make the suaseatlon to
Penelope thai she IWhl for youth. Aa a
rule 1 ad-.l-e that life should bt aerene.
and that when old axe comes It should
brma; Its own pleasures. In I'enrlope's
ca. however, the cares of a family anJ
the duties of older sister have kept her
from the K-trtlioud wlib h l her rlvln.
Now that she Is free from such cares.
It is her province to secure for herself
some pleasures, and some Joy. and some
appreciation of t'.ie attractiveness which
she really po: sesses. I am not Just sure
how she ran do this, but there I al
ways a way where there la a will, aad
she will never do It by count Ins: the
milestones alone; the way to old maid
lam. It will not do for the woman who
wishes to reform to say. "I did not
learn to dance" or "I canuot sing. ' or "I
have- no talenta." There la no talent
which may not be cultivated to aome
extent In later IUe. I know a man who.
as a boy. worked bard, and when he
made his money he recognized that be
had much need of certain accomplish
ments In society. He was awkward,
.n.l w hen he tried to dance he knew he
waa not an acceptable partner. He I
went, therefore, to a tlrst-class darn ing
master and labored for hours In acquir
ing; the graceful art. He kept at It un
til he bore himself well and made an
Impressive appearance wherever he
went. Yet thla man waa over 4 when
he atarted on tls somewhat difficult
road to cure his crudenea. Any woman
of energy ran do things that will ahake
her out of her prim ways. Many an old
maid would seem like a different per
son after a few lessons In swimming.
In dancing, or after association with a
!as In some vivid Interest.. Mere In
tellectual striving Is not the remedy.
Brains, overcultlvated. may result in a
woman of the blue stocking type. It
Is rather charm of manner and grace of
body which a woman must seek In her
avoidance of primness.
Penelope, if she followa my advice,
will be younger at 35 than ahe was at
' li. and so may many another old maid
who resolves that she will not set up
milestones along- the way.

NEW TORK. S-pt. 3 (Special.! Sydney
Harris, the wealthy father of Mrs. Jack
Barrymore. two-days bride of the young
actor whom ehe married In defiance of
her father's wishes, haa not been forgiven.
This dlfrouragins state of sffairs Is
said to exist denplte the fact that roung
Mrs. Barrymore's first act aftpr her
marriage wa. to seek the benediction of
her father's good will and blessing,
Mr. Harris objected to hiw daughter's
marriage f mm the time when the young
couples plans were first made known to
him He did not say he objected to
Jack Barrymore. He declared his daugh
ter, who le only IS. was too young to
marry. The young woman' mother was
won to the lovers' cause, but Harris
remained adamant.
The young couple took out a marriage
license August 21. but postponed their
wedding, hoping the bride's father might
yet be won to consent. Finally last Thurs
day they were married and are now on
their honeymoon. Rut the blight of
parental dlaiproval remains.
At the Harris home tonight Inquiry for
Mr. Harris was mel with the statement
that he was "not at home."
"Will Mrs. Barrymore he received by
her father?" was asked of a member of

was made to follow the route Lorraine
has been working on. but he says these
engineers made a mistake by keeping
too low down on the sides of the moun

Lorraine's route follows the Feather
River alonn the Western Pacific from
lleckn-lth Valley, near the state line, to
Spring (larden Valley, about 50 miles,
and climbs over mountains at Spring
Garden instead of tunneling under, as
the Western Pacific does.
Lorraine refuses to give any hint aa

interested, or some new- schema, to In

AIR-CRAFT DROPS

Wrecked in Marsh in
40-Foot Fall.
AVIATOR ESCAPES INJURY
Among Distinguished and Inlcresled
Spectators Is Venerable Author,
John T. Trowbridge, "Mho, for
First Time, Sees airship.
ATLANTIC. Mass.. Sept. 3. Special.)
Amid the soft strains of the "Star
Spangied Banner." as sounded by a 30
plece band, with distinguished guests in
attendance, daring aviators of two con
tinents today met at the new Harvard
aviation Held here, on the opening of the
Harvard-Boston aero meet, which will be
continued through the next ten days.
Only one accident marred the day. when
Clifford B. Harmon's machine was
wrecked. The aviator escaped Injury.
Among those who participated in the
flight were Ralph Johnstone. In a Wright
machine; Claude Gruiiam White, an En
glishman; Walter Hrookins. Charles F.
Wlllard and Harmon.
It was in perfect weather conditions
kthat white made the first flight of the
lay. It was an unofficial time In which
lte Britisher circled the field thrice at a
lilght of 100 feet. Tlie distance was
six miles and his time was announced as

Young Taft Wants an Air-Flight.
Though he had received several Invita
tions to- make flights with the noted
aviators, Charlie Taft. the young son of
the President, preferred to stay on terra
firms and enjoy life in his automobile.
Harmon was the first American to
arise from the field and It was dur
ing his air trip that the band played
the famous American air, which made
a great hit with the gathering of spec
tators, among whom was the venerable
author, John Trowbridge, of Cam--bridge,
who many years ago made
famous the verses on "Darius Green
and his flying machine."
One. of the wheels of Harmon's bi
plane sank Into soft dirt on the get
away, making the machine unsteady,
and from a height of 40 feet It fell Into
a marsh and was wrecked.
Wliile Out Again. ,
A drizzling rain fell during all of the
afternoon flights and the crowds were
leaving when Graham White came out
a second time in his Bleriot, for what
proved to be a sensational flight.
In a three-lap tliVrht, Mr. White did
the five and a quarter miles in 6 min
utes and i seconds, the best speed of
the day.
In the afternoon White made a trip
of three miles out over Dorchester Bay
and the Keponi River. This trip called
forth especial lntereat from the aged
Trowbridge, who had never seen a Hy
ing machine before today, and he con
tinually walked about the field In
specting and commenting with wonder
on the various airship models.

"Colonel Roosevelt is an enigma. He is

CARD BRINGS FORTUNE
I.O.ST HEIR SENDS POSTAL AND
GKTS $20,000.
Carney, Mourned as Dead, Does Xot
know ' Rich Aunt Has Left
I'urt of Estate to Him.
CHICAGO, Sept. 3. (Special.) An un
UHual story of a lost heir to a 3.000.0iO.
entate whose chance mailing of a souvenir
postcard will bring him i0.000. was re
vealed In the Probate Court, today. The
man is Cornelius . Carney, now a resi
dent of Oklahoma City who was thought
to have perished In the San Francisco
earthquake and fire In April. 1906.
Early In 1906, Carney was In China and
wrote home that he was railing soon for
San Francisco. That was the last his
relatives heard of him In years.
In 1908 Mrs. Anna F. Baker, who was
Carey's mother's sister died in Chicago
leaving an estate of 33.000,000. of which
a considerable part went to the Carney
children who had grown up and pros
pered In Troy.. To settle up the estate it
was necessary to find Cornelius alive or
prove him dead and one was about as
hard as the other.
Finally the courts decided Cornelius was
dead although he was married, ana living
in Oklahoma. Within a short time Cor
nelius' share in his aunt's estate would
have gone to Cook County, but Just In
the nick of time Cornelius sent a souvenir
postcard to his sister, Mrs. Lizzie Pratt,
of Troy, who at once wrote him that he
was an heir to his aunt's eetate. In court
today Carney proved his heirship and
will get the 320.000.
ARE . SOBER ENGINEERS
Inflexible Rules Against Drunken
ness Enforced by Brotherhood.
Charles Frederick Carter's "The Broth
erhood of Locomotive Engineers," In
Century.
It is safe to say that no other union,
club or organization of any sort applies
quite such heroio treatment to undesir
able citizens as the Brotherhood of Lo
comotive Engineers. One thing that the
brotherhood most strenuously Insists
upon Is that Its members shall not
drink. Thirty-five members were ex
pelled for getting drunk la 10 K, and
their shame was publicly proclaimed in
the Journal. The treatment does not
stop here by any means. , The brother
hood will not risk the lives of Its mem
bers and the neneral public by permit
ting a drinking man to run an engine.
When a man has been duly convicted
of drinking and punished according to
the laws of the order, the facts are laid
before the proper" authorities on the
road that employs him, and his dis
charge is demanded. In one notable in
stance the engineer of a fast train got
drunk during: his layover and disgraced
himself. He was tried, convicted and
expelled, the management was in
formed, and the offender's discharge
requested In regular form. But as the,
engineer had been a good man, the
railroad company demurred, saying that
he had not been drunk while on duty.
"But," said the brotherhood, "there is
no telling when a man who gets drunk
off duty may take a notion to get
drunk on diity, and we do not Intend to
take any chances on having a- drunken
man tearing through the country at 60
miles an hour, endangering the lives of
others. It is unfair both to the em
ployes in your service and to your pat
rons." i
The culprit was discharged. He can
never be employed'on a railroad again.
POLICE ARE STONED
IRISH POLITICS GROW TEXSE.
. "RIOT BARELY AVERTED.
Sorely-Needed Reforms Bring Cry
"All for Ireland'' From
O'Brien's Parly.
DUBLIN. Sept. 3. (Special.) The
Irish political situation grows more ex
citing every day. Unlike many pre
vious embroilments, however, this one
Is developing rather In Intensity than
in the diversity of the parties Impli
cated. William O'Brien's "all-for-lre-land"
agitation moves ominously north
ward, while in the south, particularly
in County Cork, the disaffection is
complete.
In the many cities that have opened
their gates to him, O'Brien has pro
claimed the name of the new party as
the Irish Liberals, and has devoted all
his time since the rising of Parlia
ment to thrusting at the weak spots
In the Nationalist armor. With his
colleagues in the agitation, Tim Healy
and Peter Guiney, he contends that the
Figns of the present are ominously
similar to those of 1SS5 and 1900, when
a sweeping general election cleared the
ground and lifted a younger genera
tion of Irishmen into power. O'Brien
considers the most attractive feature
of his latest movement is the striking
part played by young men.
O'Brien's attacks have been stoutly
and gallantly met by the Nationalists.
The Nationalist sections further north
are still overwhelmingly loyal and In
clined to back up the party of Redmond
and Dillon. Joseph Devlin. M. P., from
Belfast, claims a good 100 majority
for home rule In the House of Com
mons. Thus, If the Liberals can sub
due the Lords and Lloyd-George's re
cent speeches show he Is spoiling to
get at them again it is reasonable to
hope, say the Nationalists, that Ire
land's long-sought goal will be reached
during the Kali. Considering the pres
sure of Parliamentary work, however,
this looks to the impartial observer like
an over-sanguine forecast.
In the meantime Nationalist efTorts to
recover their waning prestige in the
south are proving disastrous. Attempts
have been made to penetrate to the
heart of the enemy's country and hold
a demonstration at Bantry. County
Cork. The speakers were allowed to
discourse for a few brief moments,
when the crowd rushed them off their
platform, shouting for O'Brien and the
"All-for-Ireland's," and captured all
their standards. On their return under
police protection, the Incensed men of
Bantry stoned them, and drave the po
lice into a near-by tavern. Just as
matters were about to assume the pro
portions of a riot,' garnished with am
ple bloodshed, the leaders on both sides
called a truce and the Kefcmondites re
tired hastily by rail to the north.
It Is clear enough, therefore, that at
present the paramount question In ftish
politics Is not the efticacy of recent re
forms, but whether factions so hostile
as the Bantry incidents disclose can
again present a solid front and com
bine to secure the sorely needed re
forms that still remain.

-THE-
GREAT APOLLO PLAYER-PIANO
"AS IF A MASTER PLAYED"
Is the thought that pomes immediately into your mind when you
hear the APOLLO Player Piano. And that thought comes, not
only to the amateur, to whom a broad, sweeping rendition o
ireavy music represents the height of ax-hievement, but also to
the trained musician who appreciates delicacy of touch in legato
movements. This mastery of the APOLLO over the music is
due to just one thing its exclusive human touch, winch delivers
