I d clearlug the ground for some im­
provements in Potomac park tu Wash­
ington the contractor some time ago
removed a stoue that for nearly a cen­
tury was a quaint landmark I d the na-
tloual capital. It is called the "Anne
Koyall stone" and lay on the bank
of l be river Just opposite the White
House, about tweuiy feet back from
tbe waters edge, at the top o f a grass
covered knoll.
It was on tills atone that Anne Roy.
all sat when she hart her famous Inter­
view with President John Quincy Ad­
ams- at least, so runs the story that
hns been handed down for three gen-
eraUons by the Inhabitants o f Wash­
ington.
And, according to that story, it would
appear that tbe good lady for whom
the stoue was named was not only a
person of energy, but was endowed
with considerable grim determination
as well. She evidently had a good
strong will o f her own Hnd an active
mind of her own. and when these two
started to work In concert In deadly
earnest results were bound to follow
Whether the good lady’s sense o f hu­
mor was cramped or extensive tbe
render must determine for himself.
Anne Koyall was I d a sort tbe mother
of modern Journalism. She was the
originator o f the "Interview ” She first,
in the little sheet that she published
In Washington In the second nud third
decades of the Inst century, departed
from the dry forms that had always
characterized newspapers.
She did not confine herself to a mere
summary o f current happenings, even
spiced wllb careful essays on abstract
subjects, after the manner o f Steele
or Addison She struck firmly the "per­
sonal note.” She wrote and printed
things about public men ns they were
In their daily lives—an innovation the
9lnrtling effect o f which we cannot re­
alize today. Her pa|ier was called the
Washington Paul Pry and afterward
the Huntress.
During the administration o f John
Julucy Adams congress passed a cer-
:aln bill, tbe signing or veto of which
by the president was a matter o f In­
tense public Interest In those days
the interview of tbe president by a
newspaper man was unheard of. and
no one had the temerity to ask Mr.
Adams wbnt he would do in the matter.
But there was one exception among
the timorous Journalists of that day.
It was Anue Royall. She dared to ap­
ply at the White House for a confer­
ence with the president, the avowed
object of which was to learn from him
als Intentions concerning tbe bill.
Poor Anne, however, was kept at a
llscouraglng distance. Day after day
ibe waylaid tbe president, only to be
foiled by bis attendants. But she did
not grow discouraged.
She learned
:hat every morning. Immediately after
rlsiug, tbe president walked to tbe
hank of tbe Potomac, some half a mile
in the rear of the White House, and
there, after Inking off his clothes,
plunged into tbe stream for a swim.
One morning when tbe president,
ifter swimming far out Into tbe stream,
turned to make bla way back toward
the shore be was astonished to see,
fitting upon his clothing, which be bad
eft upon a stone on the bank, a spec­
tacled female with a look of great de­
termination. It was Anne Koyall, and
Peside her were a pen and bottle of
ink. and In her baud was a sheet of
paper.
"Woman, departl”
sputtered the
president as be swam up into tbe shal­
lows wbere be could touch the bottom
i tiptoe.
"You know who I am. Mr. Presl-
lent,” said tbe woman, “ and you know
wbat 1 want I’ m going to alt here
mtll you tell me what you Intend do­

"Do away, woman!*' shouted tbe
president
"This Is scandalous!”

Great muacular strength Is no criteri­
on of health. The most powerful ath­
lete may be conquered by malaria Or
typhoid fever when a frail little wom­
an throws off tbe attacks of tbe germs
that cause these diseases and never
feels them.
A great prizefighter walks out In the
evening and is stung by a mosquito.
A day or two later be Is shivering with
cold aud burning with fever by turns.
The mosquito has Injected the germs
of malaria Into bis blood, and his blood
lias not the strength to exterminate
them.
He receives a small wound.
The surgeon has to sew it up. and the
big. husky chap faints from the pain,
while a slender, fragile woman endures
pains a hundred times as severe wltb
scarcely a murmur.
For muscular strength and physical
health have nothiug to do with each
other.
The physical exercise that
causes the former Is. however, con­
ducive to the latter, for It makes a man
breathe deeply, sets heart pumping
more vigorously, aids his stomach aud
Intestlues to digest better, distracts the
mind from rare aud promotes sound
sleep.
But great muscular strength
often exists with poor power of resist­
ance to disease.
Tbe most obvious proof of this Is in
the resisting power o f women. Wom­
an's vitality is greater than man's.
She resists starvation better: she ts uot
so susceptible to cold or bent; she can
stand a greater loss of blood; when
poisoned she Is more likely to recover,

Tbe headdress of the Mongolian wo­
men Is a very complicated affair.
When the bnlr ts made up tu tbe shape
of elephants’ ears tt Indicates mutrt-
mony. and when worn tu a tall tt
meuns that the woman Is a spinster.
In order to give this shape to tbe hair
the woman makes a parting In tbe
middle of her head, then drenrbes the
hair, each side by turn, with a pleas
Ing mixture of Osh glue and grease.
When It Is thoroughly soHked she
spreads tbe upper part out thinly In
such a way that at Its broadest It
measures about six Inches wide. To
keep the hair tu this shape she em­
ploys wooden clips, which, when tbe
hair Is dry. are replaced. If she can af
ford It, by silver or golden ones. Tbe
lower part of the hair Is made Into a
plait, with a silver or golden orna­
ment at the end to prevent Its coming
undone.
These silver or golden clips and hair
ornaments are often set with precious
stones, aud princesses even buve the
whole of tbe plult hidden by means or
silver or golden lings. As the making
up of tbe hair takes a whole day and
the Mongol women are very lazy nnd

When E. Alexander t'owell was the
consular representative of the United
States at Alexandria he received a call
one morning from the president of an
American concern engaged In the man­
ufacture ol agricultural and well drill­
ing mucblnery. This man explained
that he was passing through Egypt
ami asked If It would be possible to
obtaiu nn audience with tbe kbedlve.
In “ The Last Frontier” Mr. Powell
gives un amusing account of the Inter­
view:
Agriculture and Its attendnut prob-
leuis of Irrigation and fertilization
constitute the sole hobby and amuse­
ment of the kbedlve.
He Is conse­
quently a ready and liberal purchaser
of all Improved types of agricultural
machinery, which he puts to practical
use on his great estates. The request
of my compatriot was duly transmit­
ted to the grand abater o f ceremonies,
and shortly there„...'r a reply reached
me that named the day and hour when
his highness won«: receive us at the
palace of Ras-el-Tto.
Frock coated and lop hatted we drove
to the palace on the day appointed,
were received by the officials o f the
household aud shown Into the audi­
ence room, where his highness stood
awaiting us. After a cordial greeting
the kbedlve drew me down beside him
on a small sofa and motioned to my
companion to take a chair opposite us.
"It gives me particular pleasure." 1
began, "to present Mr. K. to your
highness, as he Is an authority on agri­
cultural machinery, a subject In which
your highness Is, I know, much Inter­
ested.''
“ Say. kbedlve." exclaimed my fellow
country man, suddenly leaning forward
and emphasizing every sentence by
wuggllng his Huger under the khe-
dlve's august nose. " I'v e got the nift­
iest little proposition In well drilling
machinery that ever struck this burg,
and If you don't Jump nt the chance to
get in on the ground floor then all I've
got to say Is that you're throwing
away the chance o f your lifetim e!”
The kbedlve. being naturally quite
unaccustomed to this form of verbal
assault and still mure unaccustomed
to having any one waggle u finger un­
der his nose, nt first drew back haugh­
tily. Theu the humor of the situation
dawned upon him. aud as tbe river of
talk, which Is one o f the chief reli­
ances of the trained American sales­
man. flowed steadily on he became In­
terested In spite o f himself. Now and
then he Interjected u |>ertlnent ques­
tion and ended the audience by giving
the American nn order for several
thousand dollars' worth o f American
machinery, which, when I last heard
of It. was giving excellent satisfaction
on the royal farms.
Well, It Is a Good Motto.
A Sunday school teacher, speaking
to her pupils un moral clennllness, o f­
fered a prize for the best written or
printed motto that would teach tbe les­
son o f personal purity.
"Remember." she said, “ that the
motto must hear especially on the ne­

1 was first officer of the Helen Drew
and on duty. With my glass 1 swept
tbe waters as Indicated and brought
within the field of view a ship's bout,
uow raised high on the crest of a wave
and now slaking low In. the trough.
Whenever tt was Inclined sidewise to­
ward me I could see lying motionless
ou the bottom the body of a woman.
1 gave an order to put tbe ship's bow
toward It aud when within a reasona­
ble distance sent a boat out for it and

Ou Its return l ordered the bout rais­
ed to the main deck, nud the body was
Immediately lifted out It was that of
a young girl not more than seventeen
years old. The ship's doctor at once
made un examination to determine If
she were dead and reported signs of
life. She was removed to a cabin and
by the united efforts of the doctor and
the stewardess was restored to con­
sciousness.
When she seemed sufficiently recov­
ered to be questioned she was asked
how she came to be In nn open boat nt
sen, but could remember nothing about
her lonely voyage or any o f her past
life.
I made a personnl examination of
the boat tn which she hnd come to us
I d order to (lentlfy the ship to which
It had belonged. It was un old one
and Imd either not been painted f i r
some time or had been so weather beat­
en that the paint was very much worn
Tlio stern had been Jammed against
something, and hut few o f the letters
of the name were legible. This was
many years ago, before it became the
universal custom to paint the ship’s
name on both sides o f the stem o f tho
boat
I could make out the first,
fourth and eighth letters. The other
five were either partially or entirely
obliterated. Those I could read were
NTS.
I think that If I had been
familiar with the names of marine nul-
inuls 1 might have hit upon the name.
We hnd started from Boston on a
cruise uround the world, taking In the
Cnpe of Good Hope, Japan, the Ur
wallan Islands, Sun Francisco and oth­
er American ports. We picked up the
girl after having left the cnpe, and
since we were approaching countries
which were then barbarous there was
nothing to do but keep her with us. In
a couple of weeks she had recovered
her health, but not her memory.
Being nearer her nge than any other
of the officers, I beenme more compan­
ionable with her. There were only two
clews by which her Identity might be
established—the three letters on the
stern o f the boat In which she had
been picked up nnd two letters on her
underclothing.
The boat hnd been
abundantly provisioned, and the girl
hnd been well supplied with wraps.
From these facts 1 argued thnt after
an accident, collision, fire or other dis­
aster Bhe had been put In the boat
with n number o f others. She was not
likely to have been turned adrift alone,
and the supply o f provisions hnd orlgl-
nnlly been sufficient for a number of
persons. This feature o f the problem
hns never been solved. My theory Is
thnt some person or persons who had
the girl tn cbnrge. In order that she
might have uII the provisions, nfter n
certain date committed suicide by
Jumping overbonrd. Possibly such nn
act might hnve been the result o f de­
lirium.
It Is to he supposed that a young
man of twenty three ninklng a voyage
around the world with a girl of seven­
teen would fnll In love with her. Such
was the ense with me. nnd the poor girt
was glad to hnve some one to lean upon
In her lonely condition. I told her that
she need not fear for anything since
she belonged to me. At the end of our
voyage wo would do h II I d our power
to find ont her Identity and be guided
by the result.
We spent hours together working
over the letters on the stern o f the boat
In which she had drifted. The enptalu
hnd a dictionary among his hooks, and
we undertook to make n chpck against
every noun beginning with N. Having
the relative position of all the letters
was a great advantage, and having the
first letter was even a grentcr help.
We found a numiter of words of eight
letters beginning with N, hut the one
that fitted the conditions exactly was
Nautilus, and It was the only one that
was a proper word for the name of a
ship.
It must be remembered that
•hips have often been named for a per­
son, and these names are not to be
found In a dictionary. However, we
believed that Nautilus was tho name
of the ship in question, and we would
Icnra o f such ship on reaching our
home port.
We were not disappointed. Tbe ship
Nautilus o f Provhleuce, It. I., bad sail­
ed from there and. hnd never been
heard of afterward. I took the cast­
away to that city to learn that her fa­
ther had been a sen captain, and, his
daughter Alice being In poor health, he
fend taken her on a voyage with him.
Since she was the only person saved
and hnd lost her memory no further
explanation was forthcoming.
Alice found a mother whom she did
not remember. It was sad that, bar­
ing her daughter unexpectedly return­
ed to her, the girl should not he able
to respond to her caresses. But Alice
did all nhe eonld to comfort her moth­
er, remaining wltb her till three yea n
, lalrr, when she married ma.
