OPAL WHITELEY AGAIN. TII10 mystery of Opnl "Whitelcy of Sii-rinaw, Orison, pitmen lo tlio fort' diiiiin. Opiil, it will be. remembered wrote a most extraordi nary tliary, which was published ill the Atlantic Monthly. It was so unusual, reflected such a precocious mind and exoti tempera ment, that sceptics arose on all sides, and the authenticity of the diary was vigorously questioned. Literary critics of the east were particularly incredulous. They didn't so 'much doubt that a person giving 'the inline of Opal Vhite ley wrote the diary, but they did doubt decidedly that such a person hailed from a lumber camp in darkest Oregon. So they proceeded with the assistance of diverse literary volunteers, to concoct n ro mantic drama, in which the gifted Opal AVhitelcy was substituted at some mysterious time, by some mysterious person, in some myste rious way, for the real Opal 'Wliitcley, who, if we remember rightly, died to accommodate tlioin. The idea worked well. At any rate the circulation of the Atlantic Monthly rose by leaps and bounds, and Opal's dairy, the mystery diary, advanced to one of the six best sellers. lint in time that scenario played out, as all scenarios, sooner or later, do. So now a brand new mystery is presented, according to the Oregonian. Opal Whitelcy's name is Opal dc Vere (iabriellc de Bourbon de la Tremoillc, Stancley 'Whitelcy, and she is a descendant ri' the Royal House of Bourbon, France, In fact, she is one of the "many female pretenders." Moreover, Lord (ircy of Fallodcn, has invited Opal to become a member of his household, which is conclu sive proof, for Lord (Jrey would, not lie interested in n child prodigy from Saginaw, Oregon, but would be hi a Bourbon! So runs the article. If this doesn't increase interest in the Opal cult then nothing will. But the latest explanation should also increase the prevailing scepti cism. For one could perfectly understand how the pristine and un developed wilderness of this great state could product an Opal White ley, but no one could find in any history of French royalty the slight est indication that the Bourbon family, any time in the last 100 years, could have produced one. In short, if this latest talc holds, we fail to see how any loyal Ore Ionian can defend the authenticity of the diary longer. Elbert Hub bard may have written it, or Carrie Jacobs Bond, but Opal Bariclle de Bourbon. Never! However, as far as Miss AVhitelcy and the Atlantic Monthly are concerned, they, as the saying goes, should worry. For Miss Whitelcy has already made $2.1,000 out of project and the value of tho Atlantic monthly's recent rise from back bay obscurity to popu lar favor, can scarcely 'be measured in anything as vulgar as money.

I NFA'KR heard the name of Yap in all my days, till lately; I knew not it was on tins map, or that it mattered greatly. I'd heard of Swat, -whose Ahlcoond rose long since, t') heights of glory; but Yap has never, I suppose, been seen in song or story. I do not know what waters lave its shores of mud or coral, but now it's malting nations rave, inspires another (iiarrel. I have en countered many yaps, who all around have flourished, and never wondered if these chaps in Yap were born and nourished. And now this island, cape or rock, peninsula or hollow, is stirring up much warlike talk, and there'll be more to follow. I'm always prompt to join a scrap when foemen need a whipping, but I would hate to fight for Yap, with yaps around me yipping. I'll not be with the craven crew if call to arms is spoken; I'd bravely fight for Timbuctoo, and slug for old Uoboken; the country's foe I'll roundly slap, my wrath on him I'll visit, but I would hate to scrap for Yap or any great what-is-it! Is it a thing like Pugct Sound, n lake like good old Krie, is it a hollow in the ground, a desert bleak and dreary? Is it a crater or a gap, a haven for the farmer? I'll have to know much more of Yap before I don my armor. Sport B. V. D.'s YOUNOSTOWN, Ohio Tommy Gil) bona, St. Paul heavyweight, lmn scored Ilia clKhth consecutive knockout.
