Mrs. Henderson’s vegetarian dinners
have always been a feature of her
social program during the winter. The
only plea against them is that diners
seriously object to being defrauded,
even if ever so skilfully, into believing
they are eating meat, patties and cro­
quettes, when, in fact, they are eating
"just vegetables.”
This particular dinner in honor of
delegates to tho food congress was
voted a distinct success. Those who
were included in Mrs. Henderson’s in­
vitations declared that had they not
known the exact character of
the dinner to which they sat down they
would have been convinced that vari­
ous dishes were the result of the study
and Ingenuity of Mrs. Henderson's
famous chef who had utilized meat in
a strange but most alluring manner.
Mrs. Henderson was formerly Miss
Mary N. Foote, of New York, and is
one of the most democratic and popu-
ar hostesses in Washington.
NOW COMES THE MOTOR BOOT.
Threatens the Popularity of the
Motor Bicycle, the Automobile
and the Motor.Boat.
Gay Paris has just been startled by
the apparition of a gigantic person
“whizzing along the Champs Elysees
at the rate of twenty-five miles an
hour.” He was not on horseback, ac­
cording to the Washington Post,
neither was he in an auto. He simply
stood up straight on his own legs, and
the only unusual thing connected with
his appearance consisted of a pair of
immense boots. He didn’t walk. He
never lifted either foot from the pave­
ment He simply carried himself erect
and "fairly flew.”
Subsequent inquiry developed sev­
eral Interesting facts. Fastened to the
soles of the tall stranger’s boots were
tiny automobiles, with rubber tires
eight inches in diameter, and in a belt
worn about his waist were "accumu­
lators” of one and a quarter horse­
power, connected with the boots by
means of wires. Thus equipped, the
mysterious person sped along the ave­
nue at the speed above stated, exciting
wonder, admiration and alarm in about
equal proportions.

In other words, this astonishing but
highly uncomfortable gentleman—Con-
stantinl Is his name—appears to have
invented the long-looked-for and much-
feared "motor boot.” As a matter of
fact his device will enable the indi­
vidual citizen to acquire a pair of boots
by means of which he can chase along
the boulevards of Paris or any other
capital at a frightful rate of speed, and,
as long as the "accumulators” hold out.
make anywhere from six to thirty
miles an hour. It is the much-desired
consummation—the apparatus whereby
we may pay a hundred calls during any
afternoon, evade policemen, street
cars, footpads, the carriages of the
aristocracy, and the importunities of
the very fleetest newspaper reporter.
No more need to squander money on
night-hawks, herdlcs, "copays," or even
broughams and victorias. Put on your
thrice seven league boots, light your
cigarette, push the button, and away
you go. The time is foreseen when
our greatest statesmen will provide
themselves with the Constantini boot
and laugh at would-be interviewers.
Only one misgiving is nourished.

Vice-President Fairbanks himself (the
President, it is understood, will stick
to the horse), should put on the motor
boots and start upon a swift es­

agitation he should turn on the mini­

be the condition of our priceless states­

weird form of travel?
Let it pass. No need to toes upon a
sleepless pillow while as yet the de­
tails are in camera. The motor boot,
like other great agencies of progress,
has come to stay. We can wait while
our betters try it on.

Since he became Indian Commi»-

The duties of this teacher are to lead

A II OLL AM) AIRSHIP.
LEAVE THEM INDIANS
Mr. Alfred O. Vanderbilt is having
constructed secretly an automobile
which he hope3 will be the fastest ma­
chine in the world. He is an automo­
bile enthusiast and is determined with
the aid of the wealth at his command to
break the present record. The ma­
chine which he is having built Is esti­
mated to be capable of developing 152
miles an hour with 250 horsepower.
Such speed Is the equivalent of 218 feet
for every clock tick; it means a mile
in 23 2-5 seconds. The present mile
record is 32 4-5 seconds made by H. L.
Bowden, at Ormond Beach, Fla., last
February.
Should Mr. Vanderbilt be able to at­
tain such extraordinary speed with this
automobile it will mean that it will go
faster than anything In the world
heretofore. The best time ever made
on a railroad was a mile in 30 seconds;
thia was on the Plant System on a run
from Fleming to Jacksonville, Florida,
when five miles were covered at the
rate of 120 miles per hour. Not only
will it go faster than the speed ma­
chines of to-day but the new automo­
bile flyer promises to carry its driver
faster than man has ever traveled be­
fore tn the world. In fact it is stated
that even few birds could fly at such a
pace.
Care a for 1,000 Canaries.
Mrs. Sarah Noble, a widow, of Cin­
cinnati, Ohio, feeds 1,000 canaries in
her luxurious home in that city. Dur­
ing one of her trips abroad many years
ago she purchased and brought here
the ancestors of these birds at a cost of
11,000. They live In seventy large
cages. It costs Mrs. Noble |65 a year
to feed her birds, and the most expen­
sive heating and ventilating arrange­
ments obtainable are provided tor
them.
Why should an Englishman who re­
ceived by baptism the name of Henry
be dubbed Hendrik? For more than
half a century Americans have been
writing and saying "Hendrik Hudson.”
This habit, without a legitimate foun­
dation, has been emphasized afresh re­
cently in the “Hendrik Hudson Me­
morial Bridge” and the “Hendrik Hud­
son Intercentenary Committee.” The
only excuse that can be offered for us­
ing the Dutch equivalent Is that Henry
Hudson sailed under Dutch auspices on
one of his four voyages of discovery.
The Netherlands themselves knew him
only as "Henry” Hudson.
In 1859 Henry C. Murphy, vhile at
The Hague examining the old Dutch
records for data referring to Hudson,
found In the royal archives a Dutch
copy of Hudson’s contract with the di­
rectors of the East India Company. The
document was appended to a manu­
