Paris Banker Refuses Chicagoan

Paris —A moral pointed and a tale
adorned by the experience of a young
and beautiful Chicago matron is
don't get silver streaks in your rav
en locks colored to their former hue
the moment you arrive in Paris.”
The young woman whose tresses
have brought her a queer quarter of
:m hour ar.d Then to Olympic laughter
is Mrs Robert M. Arnold, well known
am< ng the up-er society set and phil
anthropies! circles of Chicago. Be
fore her marriage with n son of the
late Bishop Arnold of Detroit, she was

Mrs Arnold ccme to Paris to put

gray haira run early In her family,
iecided to have the silvery streaks
emoved by the best artists in Paris.
Just as the restoration was com
pleted an early and costly present ar
r Kt from a millionaire sister in
Duluth. It came to the Credit Lyon
naisse, and the bankers through
whom the present was sent furnished
the Credit I.vcnraisse a detailed de
•crlption of Mrs Arnold.
The description was as accurate as

likewise stated that she would be In

Hendrickson was not with her.
“Mrs. Robert Arnold of Chicago has
gray in her hair; yours is quite
black," said the cold-eyed banker.
“My hair has? grown black in a sin
gle night.” promptly retorted Mrs.
Arnold. But the banker was inexora
ble.
"My orders are positive.” he said.
“The Mrs. Arnold for whom the pres
ent has come has gray in her hair;
yours is jet b'ack.”
Mrs. Arnold laughed as though she
were at a circus and when asked
could she give reference or get any
one to identify her she gave a list as

passing Chicagoan then identified her
just as Mrs. Hendrickson appeared on
the scene.
LOT SOLD FOR $1,000,000
New High Record in the Sale of New
York Corner—Nearly $370 a
Square Joot.
New York.—A new record has just
been established for New York City
real estate in the sale for $1,000,000
of the small corner plot at Broadway
and Thirty-fourth street, adjoining
Maey's department store. It contains
less than 1.200 square feet—not quite
i half of a full sized city lot, and brought
nearly $870 a square foot.
This exceeds the former record of
about $S00 paid two years ago for the
old Gillender building plot on the
northwest corner of Nassau and Wall
streets, on which, including some ad
joining property, the forty-one-story
Bankers' Trust building is nearing
completion
Previously to this the famous
parcel at 1 Wall street. * fronting
on Broadway, was sold for about
$700,000. In area this contains about
1.200 square feet, making a trifle less
than $000 a square foot. Not far be
low the plot just sold is the property
formerly occupied by the Union Dime
Savings Bank. The bank sold it in
190C for about $1,000,000, at the rate
of $250 a square foot, and when It
changed hands about three years later
the price was then given as nearly
$1,500,000, bringing the square foot
1 average to about $275. It occupies the
entire front on the south side of Thir
ty-second street, with frontages on
both Broadway and Sixth avenue.
The tiny corner is in the center of
one of the busiest localities of the
city. The high price paid for it has
undoubtedly been influenced by the
fact that the Pennsylvania station is
only a block to the west On the op
posite side of Broadway, between
Thirty-third and Thirty-fourth streets,
the twenty-five-story McAlpin hotel Is
being constructed, and other important
hotel and business developments near
by, including the Gimbel store one
block below, have made Broadway and
Thirty-fourth street one of the note
worthy centers in traffic and business.
LOSS CHESTNUT BLIGHT
Damage in Country Estimated at
$25,000,000—Greatest in
Pennsylvania.
_
Philadelphia.—Ten million dollars'
damage has already been done in the
state of Pennsylvania by the chest- j
nut blight, according to the commis
sion appointed on the authority of the
legislature by Governor Tener to
eradicate the disease. In addition to
this there has been damage in other
states to the amount of about $15.
000.000 This will constitute but a
small part of the loss occasioned, ac
cording to a statement made by the
commission, if the blight is not
checked, as the chestnut timber in
Pennsylvania alone is valued at from
$60,000,000 to $70,000,000.
If the disease is not wiped out it
will sweep the magnificent chestnut
forests of the south. The annual
chestnut output of the eastern part of
the United States is worth $22,000,000.
Pennsylvania has appropriated $275.
000 to defray expenses in checking
and wiping out the blight Thirty
trained men are in the field in this
state. They have located the advance
line of the blight ard are supervising
the cutting and burning of diseased
trees and locating new infections
Both the federal department of agri
culture. through Dr. Haven Metcalf of :

and the Pennsylvania forestry de
partment are actively co-operating

Kissing Is Great Nuisance
Denver Union Station Gatcrr.an in Ap
peal to Traveling Public Dur
ing Busy Season.
Denver.—"Don’t kiss In tbe gate
\ way!"
"Kiss first and show your ticket aft
erward!”
‘Kissing may be carried on between
bars of the iron fence.”
“Passengers will confer a favor up
' on the depot management by kissing
before, and not after, tbey reach the
kUticn.”
“Passengers affectionately disposed
may kiss in the ladies' waiting room
or In the lunch room. They are po
litely requested to avoid the other
places.”
"Don't try to kiss and show your
ticket to the gateman at the same
time. Don't kiss the gateman!"
"If you can’*, bear to part, take her
along with you.”
The above are rough drafts of a se
ries of notices which the gatetnen at
; the union depot have asked tbe man
agement to put up during the travel
ing season Kissing, the gatetnen say.
has become tbe one greatest nuisance
j of modern travel. People Insist upon
; kissing in the most inconvenient times
j and places.
Take, for example, the young lady
! who goes away from Denver to spend
her vacation. She Is automobilcd to
: the station by her mother, her sister
i and her sweetheart, and Is kissed in
I termitter.tly all the way down. She
! gets to the station three minutes
! ahead of train time, and makes a rush
i for the gate, where a long line of peo
I pie are waiting. After much fretting
' and embracing she finally reaches the
i gatemen.
“Where Is the train for Kansas
City?" she asks frantically. “Oh.
dear, ’way over there! My ticket—
yes. I have it. Walt a minute. I've
got it In my purse. Oh. where is It?
. I had it just a minute ago. Oh. dear
j me. the train will leave me, I know.
Goodness! Oh, here it is Hurry up.
will you! Is it all right? Can I go?
Which track did you say? Goodbv
mother dear—" and at this point the
gateman swears because Cecelia must
kiss every member of the family good
by. and her sweetheart as well. People
are standing at the gateway glowering
at her, but sbe pays no attention.
“Re sure and write, sister. Goodby. j
dear. Goodby. dear mother"—smack,
smack, smack, smack! And the gate
man in vain tries to get her through
the gate.
People have all sorts of ways of
kissing each other goodby, but a
young woman with red hair and a
black dress put through a farewell i
stunt the other afternoon that sur
prised even the hardened brakemen.
She kissed him at the gate. Evi- j
dentlv he was her sweetheart. She
drew back into the crowd and watched
him fondly as he boarded the S:45
Burlington. He went Into the Pull
man and presently appeared on the
steps. As the train drew slowly past
the gate the girl suddenly pushed past
the gateman and ran out on the
tracks, her sweetheart was waiting,
standing eagerly on the Pullman steps. ;
He leaped from the steps, folded her
tenderly many times as the train pull
ed out and then turned just in time to
catch the rail of the last car and leap I
aboard. The girl watched him until !
the train was out of sight. It was a
touching spectacle.
“And next time." said the bad gate
man viciously. Til see to It that the
last vestibule is closed.”

"I did not.”
"But about this time there was a

, * * *
By LAWRENCE ALFRED CLAY
There are certain men who feel a
sense of proprietorship as soon as they j
become engaged. Perhaps this is the I
right thing, but now and then there is I
a girl who objects to it It was so in
the case of Miss' Dora Thurston.
Frank Weils had scarcely secured an
avowal from her that he was loved in
return when he heaved a long sigh
of relief and said:
“And now, of course, thet fellow
Wakefield will get a hint that he need
not call here any more?”
"But why?” was asked.
"And you won't have that Burton
dangling around?"
"Mr. Burton never dangled.”
“And that cad of a Graham will be
told that you are not at home?"
"He will be told no such thing! Mr.
Graham is far frcm being a cad.”
"And Peterson will not be permit- \
ted to drop in here as if it were his j
club.”
”1 don't understand you, Mr. Wells," !
said the newly-engaged as she drew i
herself up. "Because I have promised j
to marry ybu does it follow that I am :
to become a prisoner in the garret or j
down cellar?”
“Dora, you have given me the right I
to say what company you shall keep,” j
was the reply. "You are so precious '
to me that—that-”
“That you would treat roe like a
five-year-old child! But you can't do
it Until we are married I shall in- j
sist on receiving my friends at this !
house. A great change seems to have •
come over you all of a sudden. Here- j
tofore you have not objected to any i
of the gentlemen named.A
“Because I had not the right. Even 1
If I knew them to be cads I could not
object Now, however, it is different."
"Mr. Wells, do you mean to say that
I have been receiving cads In mV
father's house?" the girl demanded.
“Well—er—you know.”
"I know, sir, that l do not like the
way you talk. I think you introduced
me to every gentleman we have
named.”
"But being engaged to you, you
see.”
“Then we are engaged, are we?"
“Perhaps not!"
“And young Mr. Wglls was just don

rression behind that he had quit his '
Job, and that it would take a great J
deal of coaxing to bring about his re
turn.
Did anybody faint away as Mr.
Wells walked down the street, kicking
every third ash can off the curbstone?
Not a faint. Did a certain young lady
fling herself down on the sofa and
sob and sob and sob? Not a sob!
Not a fling! On the contrary. Miss
Dora Thurston sat down at the piano
and banged and crashed and banged,
and then walked out to her mother
and said she was ready to go to the
mountains for a week, a month or a
year. The subject had come up almost
daily and the girl had been the one
who hung back. Mr. Wells had been j
yrith the bank only a few months, and ;
would not be entitled to a vacation j
this summer.
The matter was settled between
mother and daughter in Eve minutes,
and two days later they were away.
Any notice to the "bossy” young man?
Not a word nor a line. Not so much
as “X. her mark." And the servants
left behind were warned on pain of
dismissal to give nothing away.
It was three evenings before the
young banker strolled that way again.
He had his dignity with him. He was
prepared to forgive if appealed to. but
not without. When tears and sebs
came he would melt, but not too
hastily.
"Not at borne,” was the reply of the
butler.
"But they must be.”
“No, sir. Went to the country three
days ago.”
"But they left a letter for me?”
“No, sir, and none of us know
'-here they went."
Mr. Wells and his dignity and for
giveness turned aw£> If he looked
“bossy” as he ascended the steps, it
had fallen from him like a mantle as
he descended. He first declared that
he did not care a cooper's maledic
tion—that he was actually glad of it;
that he had had a narrow escape from
marrying a girl with a dreadful tem
per—one who would have driven him
from home alter a few weeks. And
then lie decided that he did care, but
that he would be tbe boss or perish.
The third decision was that he'had
made an idiot of himself and couldn't
ask forgiveness any too soon. Give a
donkey of a young man time enough
and he will strike the right policy.
Mr. Wells wanted forgiveness, bul
where to go for it? He had a pull at
the bank and got four days off. He
had a crisp ten-dollar bill for the but
ler, and the butler proved disloyal to
his mistress, just as she had figured
that he would.
A grip was packed and the "bossy''
young man hied him to a mountain re
sort. He hadn't planned that he
would, but some one had planned for
him. With a railroad time table and
a lead pencil and thirty minutes to fig
ure in she was sure even of the train
he would arrive on. And half an hour
before the arrival of that train. Miss
Dora Thurston took to the woods. In
other words, dressed for a walk on the
hills, she left the hotel and took a
path leading upwards among the trees
and bowlders and outcrop.
Mr. •Wells tried to arrive with his
dignity, but it was rather a failure.
He hunted up Mrs. Thurston and ex
plained that he had been granted a
few days oil to cure his hay fever
and that he had arrived at the Bald
Kagle quite by accident and she had
the courtesy not to smile. It was all
of three minutes and a half before he
carelessly inquired for Miss Dora and
learned that she had gone for a walk
Then he carelessly said he would look
her up, as she would probably be quite
anxious to know that the weather in
town was so hot that truck horses
were falling like autumn leaxes be
fore its fiery blast. Young ladies dc
take vivid interest in these things!
Miss Dora met a boy and she met a
man. and she met two romantic girls
and she took pains that they should
see her take a path marked; “Dan
gerous—Beware cf Avalanches!” Ur
that path to a spot where there hac
been a slide of rocks* a week before
and then she dropped her handker
chief, removed her hat and tossed i!
from her, and then went into hiding.
Miss Dora had figured time as dost
as a train dispatcher. She bad not
been in hiding ten minutes when Mr
Wells came up on the run. He saw
the hat and handkerchief and uttered
a groan and a shout. He was not up
on avalanches, and he took this for a
new one. Under it would be found
the dead and mangled body of the girl
he had tried to boss!
Off came the coat and hat and vest
of the frantic lover, ana he went tc |
work iike a deg digging cut a wood
chuck. Kelp could have bten had
half a mile away, but he felt he couid j
not stop to summon it. No he~o ever :
toiled harder for a quarter or an hour,
and he was still at it when Miss Dora
slid gracefully down to his feet and j
scrambled to remark;
“Now. then, if you have chanced
your mind about cads and other
things we will sit down and talk If
you work any longer you will have a
lame back tomorrow!”
"Oh. Dora. I—1-!”
"The girl bosses before marriage j
you knew, and the husband after- |
wards."
