"I Just Didn't Get Some Things That Other Girls Do and That Only Please For a Little While." She Declares. First Began to Save Her Money For Rainy Day. Seattle, Wash.—Girl elevator operators may not be unusual in war stricken Europe, but they certainly are an oddity in Seattle. The first one in this city is Miss Beryl Smithson, elevator conductor in the Eitel building at Second and Pike, Seattle's busiest corner. Not only is Miss Smithson's employment unusual for a girl, but all in all she is remarkable in other ways for a girl still in her teens. Few people know that the automobile she drives to and from her work is her own and was saved out of her very own say. MISS SMITHSON IN HER AUTO AND BUNGING ELEVATOR. ings, every penny of it. It's unusual for even male elevator operators to run their own automobiles. "I have always wanted to run an automobile, and after I learned to manage one it was my ambition to own one. I simply decided I could own one if I set to work to do it. Now I own one, and it wasn't very hard work to save for it either. But I don't see why you or anybody else should be so abused about it, or wonder at it. Anyhow, it doesn't matter anybody. This was the snappy though not unkindly reply which the busy little elevator girl made to the reporter's inquiry. "Don't you think it is rather a remarkable achievement for a young woman who is earning her way?" asked the reporter, who never could understand how anybody ever managed to save any money, no matter how much or how little he made. "No, I don't think it is so remarkable," said Mrs Smithson. "I think any young girl and girl can demonstrate that. It isn't hard to save a part of what you make if you simply try." "Well, how did you do it, Miss Smithson?" "I just made up my mind to save as much money as I could as soon as I began to earn wages. I didn't begin to save money just for this automobile. I first began to save for emergency—it rainy day, as they say. If I should have been able to buy a car, wouldn't be true. It was hard at first. I had to sacrifice some things that I liked and wanted, but were not absolutely necessary. I just didn't buy some things that other girls do and that only please for a little while. Then I watched prices on things, and, while I decided to buy the best of everything I had to buy, I thought twice before I bought." Secret Annual Gift For Life Savers. Washington—The mysterious $100 gift to the life saving service from New York women whose names always have been surrounded with secrety皱了. The two sisters, who for twenty years have been paying an unknown debt of gratitude to the service, now have given $20,000. Since the last contribution was made one of the sisters has died, but the survivor sent $500 for her. Says Shingle Spanking Killed Boy. Chicago—That the death of her nine-year-old son, William Paul Cameron, was due to an old fashioned spanking with a shingle was the allegation made at an inquest by Mrs. F. H. Brown, of the Dowie cut at Zion City. Il. It was the Dowie cut at Zion City that Ester Otlauersch and Eddie Dougal, aged about sixteen years, administered the spanking four weeks ago when her son shew stones at them. DIG UP BIG TOOTH OF PREHISTORIC MASTODON Well Preserved, Though Found Far Below Surface of the Ground. Cottonwood Falls, Kan.—A big tooth, which is supposed to have come from the jaw, is some mastodon of prehistoric ages. The dentist Nichols of this city by men employed in making a deep cut on Diamond creek, a mile and a half northeast of Elmldale. The trench had been sunk to a depth of fifty-three feet and had passed through an eight foot gravel strata when the big tooth was found. A soapstone formation was encountered just beneath it. The tooth is well preserved. It weighs over three pounds, measures a foot and three inches in circumference around its base and is three inches in height from its base to the points of the tooth. It is oblong in shape, its width being three and a half inches. There are six flanges or points to the tooth, which extend upward in regular pairs. The tooth has three large roots, there being about three or four roots of the root intact, but the lower parts of the root intact, it is believed the tooth belonged to a carnivorous, or flesh eating, animal because of the flanges or sharp points. After finding the tooth another bone only a few feet away was uncovered by another workman. It is a large flat, round shaped bone, which resembles a kneecep. FAITHFUL DOG'S BARKING CALLS FATHER TO CHILD FAITHFUL DOG'S BARKING CALLS FATHER TO CHILD Little One, Playing in Pasture, Where It Strayed, Kicked by Horses. Wheatland, Wyo. — G. F. Harold's little son, Alvin, two and a half years old, was kicked in the head by a horse the other day, his skull was fractured and other severe wounds, seemingly sufficient to cause death, were sustained. The father's attention was called to the child by the frantic barking of the farm dog, and upon investigation he found that the dog was guarding the insensible mound of the bale, boy from a bunch of burses in the pasture where the little fellow had wandered in his play. The child's forehead was crushed, the nose broken and the eye laden open by the flesh being all torn from it. As he was still alive he was rushed to a hospital with all possible speed. The surgeon performed a very delicate operation, lifting the broken bones into position and sewing the torn skin around the eye back into place, and at present writing the little fellow is getting along nicely and gives promise of coming back. That he was not instantly killed is probably due to the fact that the horse's hoof struck a glanding blow, and that he lives at all is because there was a skillful surgeon available. SISTERS EARN $2,400. Set New Agricultural Record Raising Cabbages. Greensburg, Pa. — Four Westmoreland county young women, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Smith, near Ruffsalds, have established a new agricultural record in the yield and profits to be derived from a two acre plot of cabbage. The Misses Smith, the eldest of whom is eighteen, now have a bank account of $900, with accounts due from Pittsburgh commission men amounting to $900, and a quarter of their cabbage yet remains to be cut and marketed. Buyers estimate the value of the entire field at about $2,400. Early last spring Smith turned the two acre plot over to his daughters, telling them to make any use of it they desired. The girls, after closely scanning the market reports for weeks, decided to grow cabbages. They set about 18,000 plants. KILL WHITE FACED IBIS. Kansas Hunters Were Puzzled, but Professor Solved the Problem. Topeka, Kan.-A a party of hunters were near Stafford when a long legged bird, which looked like a crane and a duck, a duck, suddenly rose and started to fly. Six guns spoke at the same time. The bird gave up the southern trip. The men did not know what they had killed. They guessed everything from a mud hen to a wild turkey. George Stansfield made a secret trip to Lawrence and conferred with some of the professors. They labeled the kite a white faced glossy lits, a species of bird with a white coloring is very delicate and changes continually. It is one of the snip family, but is unfit for food.

GETS $68 A WEEK WASHING. Girl Gave Up Stenography to Take In Clothes. Norrstrom, Pa.-Quitting her position as stenographer to go to the washub, Miss Georgia Cuttibert is making $8 a week, and she handles only one job, according to her testimony in the equity case in which she is defendant and Mrs. Marie Lusson, her neighbor, plantit. Miss Cuttibert informed Judge Swartz that one family alone paid her $3, another $12, two $ and a fifth $8 a week. She gets the business, she says, because she does not use bleach or acids in cleaning the clothes. "None of the clothing I handle is solled, only mussed," she said. Mrs. Marie Lusson seeks to prevent Miss Cuthert erecting a laundry in the rear of her lot in Ardmore, Pa. Mrs. Lusson says that a laundry there would be undesirable, unhealthy and in violation of building restrictions. In the testimony experts said a laundry would be unobjectionable; that there would be no dirt, no noise, no smell and, in fact, no reason why this woman should not be permitted to proceed with the laundry. PAY FARES AFTER 20 YEARS Charity Finally Took $1 That Railway Official Refused to Accept Findlay, O. — Philosophers for centuries have attempted to analyze the conscience of the human race and what prompts it, but have been unsuccessful. That such a thing does really exist, Charles F. Smith, general manager of the Toledo, Bowling Green and Southern railway, can now testify. Recently he was sitting in his office when two men walked in and each threw a fifty cent piece on his desk, explaining that twenty years ago they had ridden from the north side to the hangent depot without paying fire. The men they were compelled to stand most of the time. During all this time their consciences, they said had troubled them and they got no rest until they had returned the money with interest. Mr. Smith refused to take the money, but Dr. J. P. Baker, head of the Associated charities, who happened in Smith's office at the time, confiscated the money for that purpose. DEER ATTACKS POSTMAN. Herd Within Three Miles of Pennsylvania Town. Huntington, Pa.-Clark Smith, the oldest rural route agent attached to the Huntington postoffice, met with a spitited attack from a big buck deer while on his return trip a few evenings ago within three miles of this place. A herd of six does, led by a large buck, had been feeding in a mountain meadow and were about to emerge into the open highway just as Smith was driving leisurely past. He, a calico-colored bronze, seemed to be the one of the buck, which leaped a fence and attacked the bronco by rearing up and endeavoring to strike it with its forefeet. Mr. Smith used his whip vigorously on the deer. The bronco took fright and finally drew itself and driver to a place of safety. A herd of ten deer, including one elk, has been seen by a farmer at the further end of Smith's route. DREAMED ABOUT SNAKES Then He Woke Up to Find a Three Foot Rattler In His Room. Altoona, Pa. — George Meritts of Franklinville, Huntington county, tossed in the throes of a frightful nightmare and dreamed of rattlesnakes. In bed with Meritts was Samuel Alley of the same place. When Meritts came to himself he still believed himself dreaming, for a hideous rattle sounded in his ears. Alley also heard it. He frightful whirr maintained a steady pace, and both men were then aware that a rattlesnake was in their room. Having no light handy, the men were imprisoned in their bed for some time. Finally a match and lantern were procured. The snake, more than three feet long, with seven rattles and a button, was colled in the center of the floor. It was killed. WANTS TO GET OUT OF JAIL. Amandus Kessler's Ples to Join Marine Corps Likely to Go Unheaded. New York.-Because he is a good porch climber, ride shoer and has other marked accomplishments, Amandus Kessler wants to get out of jail at Easton, Pa., and become a fighter for Uncle Sam in the ranks of the United States marine corps, according to an appealing letter addressed to the marine recruiting station in this city. Amandus wrote several pages in his patriotic outburst and promised to use his influence to awaken his fellow prisoners to the call of the flag if the manhes would only come and get him out. Along the way, the young man claims to be a good, "healthy fellow," importantly his morals are not in the same order, condition, so Amandus and his man must hangish in prison while the marine corps remains heartless but uncontaminated.

WIDOW OF TITANIC VICTIM Dr. Rice *Hase* Mapped About 100,000 Square Miles In Vicinity of Mightiest Stream In World - Yacht Protected With Rust Proof Screens to Ward Off Flying Pests. New York - The people of the great forest are again to see Dr. A. Hamilton Rice. With Mrs. Rice he left here on the yacht Alberta for the river of the Amazons to complete his explorations in the northwestern part of the basin of the mightiest stream in all the world. Mrs. Rice, who was formerly Mrs. George D. Widener of Philadelphia, is herself interested in science and will help in the work of the expedition. She has been directing until recently the building and equipping of the great library at Harvard university which is lost. Mrs. Widener, who was lost the steamership that the yacht will stop first at Barbados and then go up the Amazon to Manacu, Brazil, 950 miles from the coast, and then into the Rio Negro to Santa Isa DR. ALEXANDER H. RICE bel, the base of the explorations. The region to which Dr. Rice and the scientists accompanying him are to give their attention is bounded on the north by the Guaviare river, on the west by the Andes, on the south by the Caqueta river and on the east by the Río Negro. The territory included in the countries parts of Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia. Dr. Rice has mapped about 100,000 square miles of this region. He proposes to make a survey of the tributaries of the Río Negro and to complete as nearly as he can the maps of enormous tracts yet practically unexplored. So well equipped is this expedition that it is expected that it will accomplish more work in the six months it will be away than could be done in twice that period under ordinary conditions. The yacht Alberta is in herself a veritable floating citadel armed with trouble. One of the plagues of tropical South America comes from the insects. They attack many files and mosquitoes that inflict painful bites and cause disease. The flying pests Dr. Rice has had the berta equipped with rustproof screens of fine copper mesh, so that every deck and every port hole will be protected. There are other insects to be guarded against, among them various kinds of ants. One of the worst of them is the leaf cutting ant, the saubra, which will eat up the ordinary tarantula mosquito net as though it were so much cobweb. In the account of one of his previous expeditions Dr. Rice tells how the ants devoured not only a mosquito net, but a pair of trousers and the pocket of a shirt. The tabard of blood sucking fly is a nicer 116 life in the Amazon basin. The chigis burrow into the skin and cause intense suffering. With the copper mesh screens and with other appliances for warding off the insects, the party expects to reduce the discomfort from this source to the minimum. SIX HOUR DAY IN SING SING.

CHINESE HAVE PLAN TO RID HOUSE OF GHOSTS Urge Novel Method of Taking Haunt From American Legation. Washington.—A legend has gone around Peking that the American legation is haunted; that the shade of an officer who lost his life during the Boxer massacres of white men in 1900 is in the habit of occasionally visiting his old quarters in the legation, greatly to discomfort of the occupants. This is the most recent guest among the Chinese in Peking. Their own spooks, being daily or rather rightly companions, do not excite much attention. But a foreign ghost is quite a new thing. A Chinese gentleman named Hsu Nai Hsu has taken the matter seriously to heart and has felt moved to write to the American minister expressing his sympathy for the affliction which the legation is undergoing in the mansion. He says the haunted room has shown in China that the way to rid a house of ghosts is to remove the roof of the building, leaving the interior of the room exposed to the sun and air for some tens of days, after which the roof may be restored and the ghost will no longer frequent the place. Mr. Hsu said that he humbly offered this suggestion, "as foreigners may not be fagged, we must proper method of handling ghosts in the house." Congress, says the Tokyo Advertiser, is asked to appropriate a sum for the recoording of the legation at Peking the American people will now understand what it is all about. FINDS HIDDEN ROOMS IN HOUSE OF MYSTERY Knew About. Chicago.—At 3624 Ellis Park is an old three story frame building that was a home when Ellis Park was a woodland. For the last eight or nine years, in a remodeled form, it has been an apartment building. A few days ago a carpenter, tearing away old planking to build a porch, broke through a wall and made discoveries which made 3624 Ellis Park a house of mystery. Between the second and third floors he found a hidden apartment, of which not even John Chamales, new owner of the building, knew. Carefully Frank Wilder, the carpenter, entered through the hole he had made in the wall. He found a complete set of rooms running from the front to the rear of the building. The walls and ceiling were unfinished. There were no windows and no visible means of exit. There was a small table in one corner with a few dishes on it and an old copper lamp. Rust covered, with a frying pan of ancient days still on it, there was a stove. Some straw in a corner seemed to indicate where the mysterious occupant of the mystery chamber had slept. A piece of wire between two walls seared as a hanger for an old coat. Over everything was a thick layer of dust. In hunting for an exit Wilder came upon a panel in the wall fastened with a hinge, two big iron hooks and a bar that fitted into iron clamps. It opened up the staircase and so matched the paneling that it was invisible from the outside. SAYS HE BURIED GOLD. Old Man on Way to English Workhouse Tells of It. Corning, Cal.-Mrs. T. T. L. Barke of Newlyn, England, in a letter to her son, the Rev. T. J. Barke of this city, states an old man named Kempe, who came from California less than a dozen years ago, was found on the verge of starvation and taken to the workhouse. Among the old man's effects was found nearly $2,000. This was all made in California, and on the way to the workhouse Kempe said he had buried about $2,000 in California in a hole five feet deep, but never could find. Little is known of Kempe except that he was a miner in California and returned to England eleven or twelve years ago. Somewhere in the old district of California a bag containing $2,000 is buried. PRIZE DOG SAVES MASTER. Barke an Alarm When Auto Pine Dr. Hair Against Garage Wall. Bridgeport, Conn.—Dr. James E. Hair, widely known in this country and Canada as a dog expert, probably was saved from death by one of his prize pets when the automobile he was cranking shot forward and pinned him against the wall of the garage. The barking of the dog brought neighbors, who found Dr. Hair unconscious. He was severely bruised in the abdomen, but is expected to recover. Apparently he had thought the engine neutral and had started it without setting the brake. Shot at Movie Picture. Hammond, Ind.—Patrons of the Lyric theater came down into a panic when John Sebastian, a former whipped out a revolver, and killed the villain, who was choking the beautiful heroine in the movie.

GIFTS FOR HOLY LAND GO IN CHRISTMAS SHIP American Collier Will Carry Relief For War Sufferers. New York—America's 1916 Christmas ship for the relief of unfortunate victims of the war will leave New York Dec. 1. The American Red Cross is co-operating with the American committee for Armenian and Syrian relief in collecting foodstuffs and clothing to be sent to Syria on a government collier placed at the disposal of the latter committee by Secretary Daniels. The collection of the Christmas ship cargo is in the hands of Albert W. Staub of the American Red Cross receiving and distributing station at Bush terminal, Brooklyn. Mr. Staub surveyed countless bundles of old clothing, the cargo, as military regulations prescribe the shipment of second hand clothing in this cargo. He said, "it must be emphasized that the only clothing American can send to the unfortunate ones in Turkey must be new and must be sent prepaid to the American Red Cross, Bush terminal, Brooklyn." Mr. Staub sent the following letter from the war relief information and shipping office: It is more than significant that the first to be to go out from the newly organized Red Cross organization office has to do with a Christmas ship. It is doubly significant that it is to take relief to a people living so near the Holy Land." MIKE HICKEY TELLS OF HIS REFORMATION MIKE HICKEY TELLS OF HIS REFORMATION Ex-Pickpocket, With Twenty Years' Prison Record, Talks to 400 Men. Mike Hickey, once a notorious pickpocket, with a record of nineteen and a half years behind prison bars, told 400 men at the Harlem branch Y. M. C. A., New York, how he straightened out and how other inhabitants of the underworld could be helped to do the same. Mike's career as a thief last until about four years ago, when he wandered, fresh from Sing Sing, into the Cremorne mission, on Thirty-second street. It ended there. Now he is night man at the Bowery Y. M. C. A. and passes his spare time helping his old pals from Danaemora and Sing Sing to get their feet on the "straight and now". The trouble with the newly emerged convict, he said, was the old story—out into the world with a $10 bill and a wish to keep straight; a job until a cop told the boss of his record, then no more job; broke; one more trick to get money to eat; caught, and back to prison. What the convict needs is a bit of belief and encouragement when he works to reform, said Hickey, adding that the men are beginning to give this, so that men with long records as criminals are now taking their places in honest life. MOSQUITOES CLOSE MILLS. Pest of Insects Compile Plants to Shut Down. Connell, Tex.-The gulf coast region of east Texas and the western part of Louisiana have been afflicted with the worst scourge of mosquitoes ever known. Several large lumber mills were forced to close down on account of the pest. Men and animals were tortured by the bites of the insects. Cattle and horses were attacked by veritable hordes of mosquitoes, and the animals huddled together in groups in an effort to protect themselves as much as possible from the bites. On the farm, large fires were kept burning constantly to drive away the pests, but these efforts seemed to be of little avail. HONOR SCHOOL JANITOR. Veteran Held That Post In the Building For Years. Indianapolis, Ind.-Shortridge high school of this city each year renders tribute to the memory of some man or woman who has helped in the upbuilding of the institution.

She says that for his comfort she trimmed his beard and cut his hair. Killed Himeself Running. Bremerton, Wash.—Because Wesleyant, fifty-four years old, did not want to be run seven miles around the shores of Puget sound. When he arrived at the navy yard he collapsed and died a few moments later in the Marine hospital. $2.40 PER YEAR NEWEST BULLET. Claimed It Pierces the Thickest Kind of Armor. LEAD COVERING DOES IT. Fired From Regulation Army Rifle, It Will Penetrate Three-Quarter Inch Steel Plate and Other Objects Beyond. Could Go Through Thirty Men In Row. New York.—A new bullet, capable of piercing armor as thick as that which covers the famous British "tanks" or that used in making trenches on the Sammé bomb and bullet proof, has been invented and tested by the ordnance corps of the United States army. The bullet is of only 80 caliber, built from the regulation army rifle. It will penetrate a three-quarter inch steel plate and other objects beyond. It is said that the bullet would be able to pierce from twenty to thirty men in a row. It has been tested severely at the Sandy Hook proving BRIGADIER GENERAL, CROZIER, CHIEF OF ORDNANCE, U. S. A. grounds by the ordance corps, and the statements published concerning its efficacy are the results of actual trials. It has taken many months of experimenting to develop the bullet, which is exactly like the ordinary bullet in appearance, but has an outside covering of lead around the armor piercing center of steel. This lead casing acts as a lubricant in passing the bullet through the steel and is ripped from the steel core as the bullet passes through a solid obstruction. Only a small number of the bullets have been manufactured, and these were made entirely in government shops. Fifty ordinance and engineer corps officers were present when these were used in the first tests. A three-quarter inch steel plate about forty feet long and twelve feet wide was erected, and behind it were fixed six silhouette targets in the semblance of objects. A detail of men from the coast artillery and ordinance corps did the firing. The bullets would pierce the steel at 100 yards. At fifty feet however, they riddled the steel plate, and the silhouette targets behind it. It is not believed that the new bullet will be valuable or necessary in ordinary infantry engagements in the open. Its worth is said to lie principally in attacks on houses, steel shelters and other obstructions behind which enemy troops are concealed. Tests have been made to demonstrate that the bullets can be fired from a machine gun as well as a rifle. SAW SIXTEEN BEARS Smith Killed and Got the Hides of Four of Them. Watenche, Wash. — The best bear story of the season comes from Merritt, and H. B. Smith is the hero. Smith one day the other week shot a bear 200 yards off, wounding it in a foreleg. The wounded animal came dashing down toward him and when within 100 feet was brought down with an accurately aimed shot through the heart. Hardly had Smith fired the second shot, according to the story, when a second black one poked its bead over a long leg by. One shot finished it. The dog then jumped all around. Smith began a funnel. He emerged with four pelts. Smith said he saw sixteen bears in all. Electric Shoot at Organ.

Pushkin, and is accepted in Euro ean royal circles, thus associating with the American Vanderbitts Astors, Thomas Nelson Pages of Vir sini and others who go abroad and break into the British court circles The incident also shows that th Slavic race, which 1s of an Orlenta origin, absorbs all other races. ant peoples with which it comes in con tact, making them an integral element fot the Russlan empire.

It te & notorious fact that in apite of Pan-American congresses, long-winded editorials in American newspapers, etcetera, the United States is tar, be hind Germany, Great Britain, France fand Spain so far as trade in Latin America 1s concerned. ‘A book by A. Wyatt Verrill on opeiL wvojomy yeT=D poe Mnog., Conditions of Today,” recently issued by Dodd, Mead & Co, New York, has this to say under the heading, “Why Americans Fail:” “Race or religious prejudice, con- descension, discourtesy or blutt have no place in Spanish America. The Latin-American 1s a gentleman firat, last and all the tlme. He has never acquired our habit of being a gentle. man in private life and a boor in dusiness and he expects others to be as courteous as himself and if they are not he judges them accordingly. He may be white, brown, yellow of black, but he remembers that one of ‘nis ancestors was probably a plumed ‘grandee of Old Spain. You may scof ‘at his ideas, you may laugh at hls faith, you may curse at the “lazy Greasers,” and through it all he may ‘mille, treat you with respect and po Mteness and greet you with expres. sions of the greatest pleasure, but in his heart he despises you for an 1! bred “Yankee pig” and thanks God that he is of Spanish blood. On the other hand treat the Latin American with courtesy, praise the buildings and industry of his town, ‘admire his beautiful women, visit his ‘Diaces of interest, and speak his lan guage and you may command respect, admiration and true friendship and levery entertainment and comfort will be yours.” ‘THE APPEAL has printed a number lof editorials along this line showing that Americans have lost milltons of dollars through thelr Jimerow methods and it 1s a great satisfaction to have thia view upheld by a great authority thoroughly familiar with conditions.
