THE most pathetic thing that has happened to me Is that they hava
taken my lovely saddle horse and sent him to ar," writes Miss
torothy Brown from the Calleva school. Folkstone. Kent, Eng
land. "At first it was thought that the school would be turned
into a hospital, and if it is necessary to do so the school will continue In a
smaller building In the country."
Mrs. Thomas Brown received a letter this morning from her daugh
ter, who also says that all of the saddle horses at the school have been
given to the army. The school reopened August 28. and Miss Brown will
remain over there.
An Omaha friend received a moat Interesting letter yesterday from
tr. Samuel Hardy, now of London, formerly champion tennia player of
California. Mr. and Mrs. Hardy bad gone down to Portsmouth from Lon
don to enter the tennia tournament. The second day of the tourney war
was declared and all of the army men who bad entered and most of the
civilians dropped out. Mr. and Mrs. Hardy won the doubles, hut every
thing waa depressing, and they returned to London and offered their
icea in the Tied Cross work- Mr. Hardy aays that Sir Edward Gray did
everything be could to promote peace, but it waa impossible.
We also received a copy of the "American Bulletin," published by the
American Citizens' committee at the white room of the Savoy hotel, Ixn
don. This copy, issued August 15. has the namea of aeveral Omaha peo
ple. The London addresses are given of Mrs. A. V. Kinsler, Miss Munch
hoff and Miss Evelyn Stickney. Under another heading "Who's Where?"
It saya, "Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Webster and. Mr. and Mrs. J. It. Webster
thought to be at Cologne, Germany.".
All of these travelers returned home last week.

During the last day or so the maneuvers
