He Is past 70, and yet he is as active, physically and mentally, as though he were 20 years younger. In the winter when other men go about with throats muf fled up and overcoats buttoned snug ly about them, Ambassador Bryce is frequently seen walking briskly dowr. Connecticut avenue with no wrap out side his frock coat Cold has no ter rors for him and he stands the heat equally as well. Some time ago he had an appointment with Secretary Knox at the state department about noon, and at that hour the thermome ter hovered about 100 and mounting higher. But on the stroke of the hour in bustled Mr. Bryce, looking cool as a cucumber, ready for busines and apparently not worried over the op pressive temperature that wilted peo pie generally. .Mr. uryce is just as a •:*«» mentally as he Is physically and he is Interested ir everything. No , • large or too small to attract his notice and in this manner he has c< Ile.ted a tremendous fund of information upon every conceivable topic. ng somewhat of a geologist, he picks up rare specimens of stone on some of . - h lies or bicycle trips through the country, and when he finds one that f~mi. . f r \ •!. sends it to the president, with the suggestion that •he geological survey be asked to lock at It and make an investigation. The »an.e th.ng is also l.keiy to happen if he runs across a plant or tree that he is unable to c lassify Nothing escapes the attention of this alert, active and interesting diplo matist He .s by nature a student. Noted as an author and publicist, he gee.- al . ut learning 'h'.r.gs day by day in a practical and first hand manner, r fcahly England never had a more energetic representative at this capital ,r i-f «bo showed us vital an interest in the country, the people and their institutions.

SECRETARY TO KING GEORGE Forty years in one job is not a bad record, yet this can be claimed by Ixird Knollys, King George’s private secretary, whose retirement is now imminent. He began his duties with the late king when Prince of Wales and has been the secretary of his son and successor. He originally intend ed to give up his arduous duties at the death of the late king, and it was well understood that he merely stayed on in order to "train in” Sir Arthur Kigge, upon whose shoulders the re sponsibilities of the royal secretary ship will now fall. Such a post requires not only hard work, but a keen knowledge of the world, combined with tact, judgment, decision and memory. It has been said of Lord Knollys that no one could hope to undertake his task with a tithe of the success which now at taches to it. f 1 ^ 1 The royal correspondence alone would frighten the average man. At-out rA* .etters a day are addressed to the king, and the majority of these tr<- attruded to by l»rd Knollys. assisted by the under secretaries. No cor T*-‘-[tend* n< *■ .? more varied than that received by the king. It is a peculiar ity of the Ktigiish court that no matter on what subject you address the oc • -I®1' of the throne, you almost invariably get a reply. However. Lord Knollys is far from being merely a letter-writing ma -hice for thU constitutes quite a small part of his work. He has to keep •he i rig informed of all the engagements, to arrange his journeys, to keep him ported In all that is going on in the outer world, and to have at his finger ends the Important news of the day. Apart from his secretarial duties Lord Knollys was an Intimate personal friend of 'he late king, and perhaps no one appreciated the dead monarch's real g- ner» -ity and kindness of heart as did his private secretary. MILLIONAIRE'S WIFE BROKE Mr* Theodore Perry Shoots, moth er of a due be-** and wife of ao Ameri can millionaire. recently found herself In Paris -.tnable to leave her apart ment. which the must vacate at once, according to the lease, on account of not having money to pay the usual charges made when a tenant quits. Mrs Shorn* rented an apartment on the Avenue Hocbe several years ago at an annual rental of $3,500 exclusive of taxes and other charges which would run the figures much higher, i Obeying an urgent, imperative sum mons from her husband to return to America, she gave notice that she would not renew the lease when the time expired. RAIN COULD NOT DAMPEN PATRIOTISM ALONG CANAL - \ i COL GOB TMAC-S 5PBAKIHG PHOTOGRAPHS just received from the canal zone show that the Fourth of July there, though decidedly wet, was properly observed. When the time came for the beginning of the patriotic exercises at Cristobal, the heavens opened and the rain descended. But this had little or no effect on the crowd of loyal Americans who had gathered to hear Col. George W. Goethals deliver the oration of the day. As for the colonel, he refused the protection of an umbrella or rain coat while making his speech, as the picture shows. Colonel Goethals. who. perhaps, more than any other man. has made possible the Panama canal, during his oration spose of the tremen dous influence for peace and prosperity that the canal would exercise on the world at large; touched on the difficulties that attended the work and alluded to the gratification that must be felt by every citizen of the United States when reflecting that the undertaking had been brought to a successful stage by Americans. : ENGLISH GIRL IS HELD Miss Malecka in Polish Prison Without Formal Charge. Young Woman Said to Have Been Anonymously Denounced to Rus sian Authorities as Being Active Worker. Warsaw.—Although Great Britain is said to guard jealously the welfare of her subjects abroad, this can hard ly be the case where the subjects are naturalized, as Miss Malecka, who was arrested in Warsaw last March. Is still in prison, although no formal charges have yet been made against her. The difficulty in her case apparently arise from the fact that Russia rec ognizes the foreign naturalization of none of its citizens. So far as can be ascertained by the very scant infor mation given by the authorities Miss Malecka is charged with having been an active member of an illegal society. An illegal society is an association which has not obtained the sanction of the authorities and may do nothing more revolutionary than teach people to read or write Polish or to lecture on Polish literature or history. During the first three months of the present year no fewer than 75 mutual Improvement societies. Russian and Polish, were declared illegal. The punishment for persons found guilty of aiding or belonging to illegal so | cieties of this kind varies, but general j jy consists of a fine of 100 to 300 ! rubles and a few days’ to a month's Imprisonment. From an interview with one of the i lady's many Polish friends who. need less to say. belongs to a so-called “11 j legal" society ar.d does not wish her | name to be disclosed, .it was learned I that Miss Malecka is supposed to have ! been denounced to the police by some : person or persons unknown to her— possibly an agent provocatur—as be ; Ing an active member of the Polska I Partya Soclalistyczna (Polish Socialts i tic society). This society goes a good deal fur i ther than the "illegal" associations generally, as it advocates and even practices terorlsm and is always at war with the authorities. Whether the police really charge Miss Malecka j with this or only arrested her on sus picion and are looking through ner papers in their usual dilatory fashion remains to be seen. Although they said a few weeks ago that the pris oner confessed to being a member of j the society in question and was | "proud of it." they now- neither con firm nor deny this statement. Of course. Russian subjects are oft en kept for months in prison on Just such vague charges. Expedition, as It is understood elsewhere, does not exist. A certain gentleman was ar rested and kept for two months In a crowded cell Just because a revolu tionary's visiting card was found in his rooms. He was finally discharged for lack of evidence—as. indeed, there was none—but there could be no ques tion of damages for false imprison ment If Miss Malecka’s papers contain no evidence of her having belonged to an tllegal society, and If she can satisfy the Russian government that she Is a British subject, she may be able to get some compensation. But here again another difficulty arises: The Russian government does not bind Itself to recognlte the chil dren of a Russian subject who bat been naturalised in England as British subjects. Miss Malecka’s father was bora a Russian subject, emigrated to England, and became naturalised. In other words. Miss Malacka Is a British subject anywhere in the world but in the Russian empire. This is the ver dict of an eminent legal authority In f * | Warsaw, but it would be interesting to bear the verdict of an English au thority. Though the Warsaw citadel does not give anything like adequate ac comodation to its prisoners. Miss Ma j lecka's friends need not fear that she | is being ill treated, as her British passport, at this stage of affairs, would, in any case, protect her in that way. At the same time her quarters are ; none too comfortable. The food, though fairly good, is very scanty, and the cells are exceedingly dirty. Her friends have been sending her addi tional food and also some books. She will not be allowed to see visitors or ! to write or receive letters until her ; preliminary examination has been ! completed. RISKS HER LIFE FOR OTHERS i New Jersey Woman Seizes Large Shepherd Dog. Afflicted With Ra bies, and Forces It Into Shed. Flemington. N. J.—That the lire? of others might not bw Imperiled. Mrs. | Jacob Leon grappled with her large j i shepherd dog when it was suddenly j stricken with hydrophobia. The dog j i was tied to its kennel with a rope when Mrs. Leon discovered its condi tion. An instant later it had bitten the rope in two and. snapping, snarl ing and frothing at the mouth, it start ed to leave the premises. Realizing the danger to others, Mrs. Leon called sharply to the animal and. ! catching it by the sides of the head. | forced it into a woodhouse. William E. Green, a neighbor, was summoned to dispatch the deg with a 1 shotgun, and when he arrived the dog was dashing madly about the wood house. bitine everything within its reach Mrs. Leon's arms were scratched by the teeth of the dog as she held it. but the shin was cot broken. JEANNE D'ARC'S OLD SWORC Museum at Dijon Said to Posses: Blade Given to Maid of Orleans by King Charles VII. Paris. — Rlograpbers of Jeanr.i ! d'Arc. including Anatole Prance and : Andrew Lang, have never been able to discover any authentic relics of tht j Maid of Orleans. The executions, j threw her ashes into the Seine, anc j the cottage at Domremy has not so ! much as a wooden shoe which can bt proved to have belonged to the Lib erator of France. There is, however in the museum at Dijon a sword kep in the hall with the tombs of Philip the Bold and Jean-sans-Peur, for whict the custodian. M. E. Metman. has doc uments proving that it once belonget to Jeanne d'Arc. On one face of the hilt is engravec a figure of the Maid in peasant cos tume kneeling before a cross, with the name Charles VII. On the other is the word "Vaucouleurs.” On both the arms of France and those of the Cltj of Orleans. The date. 1419, is fount in five plates on hilt and blade. This ; date may indicate when the swore i was made, or it may be in commem oration of the assassination of the Due j de Bourgogne in the presence of the Dauphin, the future Charles VII., on I the bridge of Montereau. M. Metman's manuscripts show tha> j the sword was manufactured at To ledo and was autographed by the | sword-maker. Lupus Aguado. and that it was specially made as a present tc | the Maid from the king of France. Chinese Empress' Wealth. Seattle. Wash—According to Chin ese papers received here it is credit ably reported in Pekin that the for tune accumulated by the late Empress Dowager Tze Hei. which amounts to between S25.000.000 and $30,000,000 chiefly in gold bars, has been shipped to England, whence it will be trans ferred to a bank in Brussels for in vestment. Since the death of the empress dowager the treasure has been stored in the palace under mili tary guard. No “Future” for this Girl Sad-Eyed Blond Stenographer, Who Wedded Curly-Haired Clerk. Gives Gypsy Seeress a “Tip.” Kansas City. Mo.—Three gypsy women, one quite young, were in an East side grocery store when two young American women entered. One of the older gypsies made a "gurg ling" noise to the young one soon after the Americans were Inside. "Don't you girls want vo.ur fortune told?” asked the little gypsy miss as she walked toward the young women with her hand outstretched. "1 can tell your past, present and future,” went on the gypsy girl. “All about your love affairs. I can tell you when you are going to get mar ried." This appeared to be too much for one of the young women, a sad eyed blond, tired-looking, creature. “Say. you.” she exclaimed, “I’m al ready married, and I’d rather give yon $50 to tell me how to lose what I’ve got than 10 cents to know that there is another lazy loafer waiting down the line somewhere for me to sup port!” “Where do you live?" she asked then. "I will come to your home and tell you all." "Beat It. little one. beat It," ordered the tired-looking blond. ”1 don’t live; I exist. And ap for yon telling me all. why I can tell you more about this game and hand out more real, genuine hot tips on this matrimonial business than you ever dreamed of. If you ever run across a stenographer earn lng her little $85 per. and enjoyiug single blessedness, don’t wait to read her palm. Look her straight in the | eye and tell her not to let any curly haired, gazelle-eyed $15 a week clerk with pink ears and perfectly mani cured nails get her out of her head enough to stand for that marriage business. When he loses his job he never gets another, and the aforesaid stenographer has to hike out and gel one of her own. And the chances are it will be about $10 per writing five letters a week, watching the telephone and steering creditors off some cheat screw of a lawyer with fringe arounc the bottoms of his trousers. You take chances, too. on getting even that $1( on which two must live cheaper that one. Tell her that, too." Then she said to the grocer: “Givi ! me a dime's worth of brick cheese and a nickel’s worth of lettuce. W are going to have sandwiches fo ; luncheon. 1 like that word ‘luncheon No: I have a half loaf of rye breai left from yesterday.” Gets $45 for Nickel. Dover, Del.—Walter McGinnes. a day laborer, in purchasing a basket and contents at a public sale ot the goods of Mrs. Thompson, who recent ly died, began to look through nu purchase and found $45 between tb< leaves of a memorandum book tbal bad been in the basket, two $20 bills and one $5.

Chicago.—The “flight of the vital spark" bag been witnessed, according to a statement made by Dr. Patrick S. O'Donnell, an X-ray expert, who has been following up experiments made by Dr. W. J. Kilner of London, Eng land. Some time a^o, using a chemicalized film sealed between two thin strips ot glass. Dr. O'Donnell gave a demon stration to twenty physicians of the aura, or “electrical radiation” of liv ing bodies, four young women being used as subjects. The aura developed as a strong ray of light surrounding the entire form of the subject “The other night.” said Dr. O’Don nell. "in the presence of several physi cians at Mercy hospital. I tried the experiment on a dying man. He was rapidly staking. Suddenly the attend ing physician announced that the roai was dead. The aura began to spread from the body, and presently disap peered. Further observation of the I corpse revealed no sign of the aura. “We do not contend that the light is the soul or spirit In fact, no one seems to know what it is. In my opin ion, however, it is some sort of radio activity made visible by the use of the chemical screen. My experiments, however, seem to prove that it is the animating power or current of life of human beings." PREROGATIVE OF HER SEX Bride Had But Exercised Recognized Privilege That is Universally Granted. A young couple had been courting for several years and the young man seemed to be in no hurry to marry. Finally, one day, he said: “Sal, I eanr.a marry thee.” “How’s that?" asked she. "I've changed my mind,” said he. "Well, I’ll tell thee what we'll do," said she. “If folks know that it’s thee as has given me up I shanna be able to get another chap; but if they think I’ve given thee up I can get all I want. So we’ll have banns published and when the wedding day comes the parson will say to thee: ’Wilt thou have this woman to be thy wedded wife?’ ar.d thou must say: T will.’ And when he says to me: ‘Wilt thou have this man to be thy wedded husband?” I shall say: ‘I winna.’ ” The day came, and when the minis ter asked the important question the man answered: “I will." Then the parson said to the wom an: “Wilt thou have this man to be thy wedded husband?” and she said: “I will.” “Why,” said the young man furious ly, “you said you would say ‘I win na.’ ” “I know that," said the young worn an, “but I’ve changed my mind since.” —Mack’s National Monthly. PIMPLES COVERED HIS BACK “My troubles began along in the summer in the hottest weather and took the form of small eruptions and itching and a kind of smarting pain. It took me mostly all over my back and kept getting worse until finally my back was covered writb a mass of pimples which would burn and itch at night so that I could hardly stand it. This condition kept getting worse and worse until my back was a solid mass of big sores which would break open and run. My underclothing would be a clot of blood. "I tried various remedies and salves for nearly three years and I was not getting any benefit. It seemed I was in eternal misery and could not sleep on my back or lean on a chair. I was finally given a set of the Cuticura Remedies and inside of two weeks I could see and feel a great relief. I kept on using Cuticura Soap. Ointment and also the Resolvent, and in about three or four months' time my back was nearly cured and I felt like a new being. Xow I am in good health and no sign of any skin diseases and I am fully satisfied that Cuticura Reme dies are the best ever made for skin diseases. I would not be without them.” (Signed! W. A.
