A rcmnbkablc and very interesting

of what can be done With a typewrit-

The exhibit is a model of neat work.
which certainly reflects great credit
on the institution which can produce
such results by its tuition. There are
exhibits in handwriting which looks
like copper plate. legal writs neatly
and carefully drawn. pages from ledg-

lettering work. in which the typewrit-

of making pictures. There are writ‘

Synopsis. .

‘ (Read by bliss Laura Baker.) _
The Ducheésc as cancerous Milli.
dc Krakoflnan arrive at the Inn in the
middle of the lligllt.,ullattended by a
retlnue. their rank unknown. The
duchessc has just lately received her
title. and not even docs the More Ger-
trude know that their duchcsse has
come. ‘

More Gertrude tells Mme. de Kra.
kofmail that today, Is. the first of May
and that all the young people will as-
semble there for a bulb One of the
girls will be chosen and crowned as
“Queen of the Springtime." The duck-
ease decides to put on a Swiss cos-
tume and to compete for the prize.

The peasants are very angry to have

a stranger mingle with them. and each
one strives to confuse the Swiss girl
and make her uncomfortable. They
dance and sing around. In the midst
of it. they are interrupted by More
Gertrude. who tells them that some
workingmen are nttacklng the house.
The men are all in the forest and
there is great excitement. Gudule
alone proves equal to the occasion.
She organizes the peasants into a com-
pany for defense. Each one arms
herself with some household imple-
ment. such as shovel. poker. etc. They
start out to defend the house.
Mme. de Krakofmau reveals the se-
cret that. the Swiss girl is their own
duchcsso and that she alone must be
protected.

La Mere Gertrude [explains that the

men were not attacking the house.
This was only a joke on her part to
see. which of the girls was bravest
and most worthy of theorize. All are
greatly frightened that they have so
Insultcd the duchosae and try to put
the blame on each other.
The crown Is given to «the duchessc.
who in turn presents it to Gudule. as
she alone had not been rude to her
and because of her courage. The play
ends with the duchcsse saying “Ono's
clothes seem to make all the differ-
ence in the world."

“Two innocents Abroad" occupy
cells at the South Norwalk police alu-
tlon, and they are certainly entitled

. to sympathy, even though they have

confessed to having stolen a bicycle
from George *Jennings. of Green's
Farms.

The innocents give their names as
being Frederick Schult and Carl An-
derson. They have, their passports
which show that they only landed in
this country on January 17. and al~
ready they have had enough of the
“land of the free and the home of
the brave."

When they hit Castle Garden, one
of the employment agency leeches who
find unsophisticated foreigners such
easy prey in New York, got the two in-
nocents and contracted with a concern
in this shite to gIVe them a job.

Now there are many ways of em-
ploymcnt agencies, and whether this
one performed the time worn trick of
contracting with the foreman who hir-
ed the fellow at 81.50 per day and the
innocents got only a dollar. the em-
ployment agents whacking up the dif-

his services are no longer required.
and he is at the mercy of the agency
again, is a. matter of conjecture, but
the case has the appearance of having
been such. Anyway the two innocents
became discouraged with trying to
work in a big American factory for
starvation wages. so they started to
take a steamboat like Mariuccia in
the popular song and go back to the

~ old coumrec.

They started from the city in which
they worked and finding that walking
was not very speedy happened to see
a bicycle standing in the quiet street!
of Green‘s Palms. Just how one bi.
cycle would help two men to get over
the ground more quickly they have

of them were helices and they were

THE .GREATEST‘WOMAN. .

Wilbur Ncsblt, boiuglaslccd to say
who in his estimationmss. or is. the
greatest woman in the world. replied
promptly: “The unknown woman
who invented apple pie. She was and
is and ever will be the woman who
has done more than any other to giad~
don the heart of man." Undoubtedly
Mr. Nesblt'e tribute will not be relish-
ed by thaLseution of the feminine
which resents the implication that
glsddening the heart of man const
tutes woman‘s chief mission or
crowns her glory. To invent an up
pic pic for the sake of cheering the
heart or captivating the appetite of
man. will seem an unworthy‘accom-
pllshmcnt in the eyes of some who are
suspicious for the sake of the sex.
Yet it may be reflected .tllat woman
herself is not insensible to the attrac-
tions of a good nppllc pie: and it is
further to be borne ln‘mlnd that the
invention of the apple pie presupposes
in the Inventor virtues and talents of
the highest order. No more frivolous
feminine or Weak-brained woman
could have ever devised the apple pie.
She was. without question. a well-
‘polsed. clear-wed. clean-headed indi-
vidual, with an intellect for organiza-
tion and a heart for noble ideas. No
body but the apotheoeisvof womanhood
could have invented apple pie—New

SECRETARY TAFT IN OHIO.

Would Not Discuss Politics With the
Newspaper Mon.

CINCINNATI. 0.. April 27.—-—Secnc~
tary of War Taft, who is to make seve-
ral public addresses in this city and
one in Dayton, Ohio. within the next
three days. arrived this morning. lie
declined to discuss political questions
and declared that he will not have
during his trip. anything whatever to
any bearing on the presidential ques-
tion.

"The engagements which I ha e
come to fill." he said, “were in c
long ago and politics has never enter»
ed into them. I shall have nothing
whatever to say of a political charac-
ter.” .

There was no committee to meet the
secretary at the railroad station and
no demonstration of any kind. Ills
brother. Charles P. Taft, was there
alone to meet him and they were driv-
en directly to the home of Mr. Taft.

There was a decided demonstrati
however, when the secretary ante
the Sinton Hotel three hours later to
intend the conference "of Western As-
sociated Yale Clubs, of which be ill
president It had-only been with great
difficulty that the Yale men were pre-
vented from coming to the station on
mass to greet the secretary. it being
feared that they would by their demon-
stration give his arrival to political 84>
poet. The effervescence, however, lost
no force by the temporary bottling and
the secretary. when he entered the ho-
tel, was given a reception which fives
as fervent as it was vociferous.

In company with the other Yale men
the secretary this alteration was a
