J5. The rumored engagement of Postmaster-General Hitch-ccck to Mrs. Joseph Stickney, of. New York and London, is of great interest on both sides of the Atlantic. The only bachelor member of, President Taft's Cabinet has been peculiarly1 free from annoying, rumors of love affairs whenever he paid any attentions to young womea, therefore this rumor has gained some credence.

Mrs. Stickney Is little known in Washington, except to the little colony of New York people who also spend considerable time in London. Her home In the British capital Is one of the favorite gathering places for smart London society. Mrs." Stickney attended the diplomatic reception at the White House last winter, the first of the Taft administration. She was the house guest of Mrs.

E. Crownin-shield, daughter of Senator Dupont, of Delaware, and divided honors with Mrs. rotter Palmer, who was Mrs. MacVeagh's guest, for beauty and for magnificent jewels. She wore a superb, but very plain, gown of cloth of gold, made In the prevailing fashion of the close-fitting skirt and scant bodice, with strands of rhinestones forming bands over the shoulders.

Between these lines of carriages people on foot cheered their favorite knights on to doubled effort in spearing the elusive little white rings hanging from each of the arches. Blare Of Brass Greet Each. The jousting began with a selection by the Long Green Military Band, each bold knight and his lithe steed was greeted with the blare of brass and the tap of drum as he made himself ready to charge. The charge was made by Mr. J.

Howard Fox, who reminded them that the sport in which they were about to engage is the modern type of the chivalry of old. Then the tournament was one. One by one the dozen or more knights, answering to the 'order "Charge, sir knight!" galloped furiously down the' course, lance leveled and aimed at rings, the. capturing' Of which would mean the choice of the queen of love and beauty and her three maids, besides a bit of a prize to increase the zest. Mr.

William R. Isennock, Knight of Overlea, proved himself the most dexterous, and second to him was Mr. Amos Mc-Comas, Knight of Greenwood. Third in the race was Mr. J.

Leech, Knight cf Dixie, and Mr. Howard Lloyd, Knight of Iledgehill, gained the privilege of crowning the third maid of honor. The coronation followed. The address was made by Mr. Elmer Haile, an attorney of Towson.

CARING FOR TIRED MOTHERS Successful Work Beins Done At Claiborne Cottage, The Claiborne Fresh Air Cottage, at Claiborne, which was opened July 1 for the free entertainment of tired mothers and little children, has been carrying out its beneficent work with marked success in spite of the fact that the charity is little known. There are now at the home five mothers and 11 children.

One woman is recuperating after a surgical operation, and three others a woman and boy and girl are building up their strength for coming surgical operations. It is the intention of the committee to keep the cottage open as a winter con valescent charity, if sufficient contributions can be received to conduct the work. The people of the Eastern Shore have been generous in their support" of the work, and since most of the poor bene fiting by the charity have from Baltimore, the committee hopes that Baltl- moreans enjoying their own summer vaca tion will assist in this work. Miss Julia Cockey, of Claiborne, is one of the committee of ladies in charge. The board of managers meets at the Claiborne Cottage the first Friday of each month.

There is special need for further equipment of the cottage, FURNITURE, CARPETS, ETC. 1 1' -V 0 Be mm -Mid Fire! Our of sell in order Parlor Price Odd from fromi from from.

"Yesterday the- hoy I played truant with and I fell out, and he licked me, and a man we threw 'stones at caught me and licked me; the driTer of a cart we hung on to licked me; the owner of a cat we chased licked me. "Then, when I got home, mother licked me; and after that father licked me; and then mother licked me again for calling her a sneak for telling father."
