FORMER STAGE BEAUTY
SUED FOR SEPARATION
1 J
MR.S. ALBtRT GALLATIN WHU.LE.St
Albert Gallatin Wheeler, Jr., son ot
the Chicago financier of the same uarao,
began action to obtain a divorce from
Mrs. Claudia Carlstedt Wheeler in the
Supreme Court of New York. Mrs
Wheeler, who was once widely known
on the stage, obtained a separation in
1910, with alimony of SIO,OOO a year.
When questioned Mrs. Wheeler said
she was aB yet unaware of the action.
"I have had a great deal of trouble in
the last few years," she said, "and it
would not surprise tne if such a move
were made by my husband."
The complaint is se^zhd.
Mrs. Wheeler attributed nil of her
marital difficulties to having loved her
husband too well, when in 1912 he eon
tested her right to receive SIO,OOO In
alimony and succeeded in reducing it
to half that sum. Within the present
year she sai4 she intended to bring ac
tion against the elder Mr. Wheeler for
$1,000,(XX) on the ground that he had
alienated her husband's affections. Mr
Yt heeler. Sr. was head of the corpora^
bU,lt the Chlca * 0
and he has many other interests.
Glazed Earthenware
Glazed earthenware was long sup
posed to be of no more ancient date
than the ninth century, but (he discov
ery of glazed ware in Egypt, of glazed
bricks in the ruins of Babylon, .of
glazed coffins ami enameled tiles in
other ancient cities proves that this is
not the case. The Arabs seeni to be en
titled to the credit of having intro
duced glazed ware into modern Eu
rope. The Italians are said to have
become acquainted with this kind of
ware as it was manufactured in the
island of Majorca and gave it the
name of majolica. The French de
rived their first knowledge from the
Italian manufactory at Faenza and
christened it faience.—London Satur

Hats On
It i» customary in Quito when - a

is said, arises from apprehension that
cold will be taken by remaining un

Napier at the Battle of Meeanes
When in the fight I held my life as
gone, for as to escaping all idea of that
vanished when I saw the Twenty-sec
ond giving way and was obliged to ride
between the fires of two lines not
twenty yards apart. I expected death
as much from our men as the enemy,
and I was much singed by our fire, my
whiskers twice or thrice so and my
face peppered by fellows who in their
fear fired high over all heads but mine
aud nearly scattered my brains. In

Liszt's Rude Host
High society has its crude personali
ties, if a story in one of the magazines
is true. At a dinner given to the fa
mous pianist, Liszt, his host, (Jouut Lu
dolf, right in the middle of Liszt's
most exquisite playing, said in a loud
voice, "If any one wishes to have a
game of whist there are tables in the
other room." Liszt, says the narrator,
stopped short, but as no on e moved he
consented amiably to remain at the
piano, The amount of wine that had
been consumed by Liszt's host on this
occasion U not stated.
To Test Bread Dough
To test light bread dough and make
sure as to whether it has risen suffi
ciently for baking, press the finger in
the dough. If the hole remains the
dough is in proper condition. If the
dough rises and fills the indentation
this shows that it is in a condition to
continue rising.—Exchange.

in keeping the affairs of the United
States and Mexico 011 a friendly basis.
All of the independent countries in
America nre members of the union, the
dependent ones, such as Canada, not
being represented, but efforts will be
made, he said, to have that country
added on a honorary basis. Mr. Barrett
said in part:
"Premier Asquith said, I have been
informed through a personal note from
Winston Churchill, that had there been
a Pan-European Union there would
have been no war in Europe. Twenty
one Ambassadors or ministers represent
ing the American republics have prayed
that their sister warring nations find a
way to establish peace and I yet be
lieve that, the Pan-American Union may
start a peace movement.
State Has Much at Stake
Pennsylvania has possibly more
at stake in the Pan-American commer
cial opportunity .than. any. other State
in the Union. The largest export busi
ness which this country does with Lat
in-America is in exports of iron and
steel and other hardware products.
While the demand for .these has been
vast during the last few years, it bids
fair to be much greater in the tfear fu
ture.
''l want, therefore, to make an ur
gent appeal to the manufacturers, ex
porteis, importers and business men
generally of Pennsylvania to take a
greater interest in the exchange of
trade with our twenty sister republics
than they have ever done before. Great
credit is due those companies, firms and
persons who have already established a
large commerce with Central and South
America, but what they have done
should be an inspiration and example
to others who have not yet entered the
field.
"To understand tho present situ
ation, however, and to go about develop
ing additional trade with ,Latin-Amer
ica, it is necessary to consider certain
vital tacts of tli c present hour. In the
very first place, it must be emphasized
'""America does not present an
f l»or:ul° to the American manufac
turer. The importers, buyers and busi
ness men generally of the Central aud
> outn American countries are not stand
ing with their hands filled with gold
to buy everything that, is offered.
Although that field is potentially
mighty, it is at the present time un
dergoing a serious financial setback
caused by th e European war. Normal
conditions of commerce have been com
pletely upset. The war has acted in
a sense as a gigantic 'monkev wrench'
cast into the Latin-American commer
cial machinery and putting much of it
out ot commission until a new com
mercial machinery can be constructed

there seemed no hope for any rescue.
In t'he morning the Golden Gate life

ed. Through t'he enterprise of a local
newspaper it had been ferried across
San Francisco bay loaded 011 a motor
truck and sent ten miles over mountain
roads. It began to shoot lines towßrd
the wreck as the tide rose. After the
third shot* the water was waste de«p
on the schooner and the wireless opera
tor who was sending with an improvised
outfit held in one .hand, reported that
t)he passengers were desperate.
''We will get ashore as best we
can," he reported. " W r e cannot stay
here.''
But they dared not trust the waves.
"Try once more. Hurry! Hurry j"
called the operator a little later.
The Hanalei was a wooden vessel of
6GB tons, built for the Hawaiian sugar
trade in 1901 and later diverted to
coastwise traffic, running 'between San
Francisco and Eureka. She left Eureka
Sunday. She was owned by the Inde
pendent Steamship Company.
The Steamer Goes to Pieces
Tho steamer went to pietes after a
night spent in heroic, but futile efforts
by persons on shore to lit up a line to
the vessel by which the passengers and
crew could be removed from danger.
Those on board kept up their courago
to the last and it was not until the
hull parted across the rock where she
hail balanced since yesterday morning
that they leaped into the water and
fought toward the signal fires which
| burned 011 the beach. Large portions off
the hull, with a spar protruding from
it wallowed toward shore 011 the com
bers, carrying many human being -who
clung desperately.
A search light had been rigged up
on top of a bluff and with its rays
swimmers were aided in avoid tho
heavy timbers adrift and in heading
toward shore.
When the hulk was within 300 feet
of shore it struck a submerged rock
and keeled over. All those who had
been hanging to the spar or the bits
of rigging were washed off. A few
still clung to the hulk, however, as it
was wrenched free from tho rock and
continued to drift shoreward. Finally
a wave threw it so high upon the sand
that life savers were ablo to assist the
few half drowned men.

rushed back into the barn and was
lost. Another had gotten loose without
the aid of Sowers, although it was so
badly burned by the time it reached a
place of safety that it had to be shot.
Within half an hour tho barn roof
fell in. Fifteen minutes after the fire
broke out between thirty and forty
neighbors had arrived on the scene and
were bending their efforts toward sav
ing the dwelling house, which was in
the path of the wind-driven sparks and
burning embers and which already was
ablaze. A bucket brigade was formed
while another corp of men began re
moving tho furniture from the house.
The dwelling was saved, although some
of the bedding and furniture that had
been carried to tho hillside, nearby,
was burned by emhers.
The fact that the barn was covered
with a sheet metal roof, probably saved
the house from destruction. A pig stv,
adjoining tho barn, was burned al
though the swinp were saved.
Embers Spread the Flames
Immediately in front of the barn,
which was 80 feet long and 56 feet
wide, was an immense straw stack.
This was consumed. Burning embers
were carried a distance of a quarter of
a mile ajid set fire to the dry grass in
the yard adjacent to a house on an ad
joining farm.
In addition to the livestock fire de
stroyed practically all of the farming
implements; 40 tons of hay; 400 bush
els of wheat; 55 bushels of bats; 40
bushels of corn and between 40 anl
50 tons of straw.
When the lantern exploded Sowers
was alone in the barn and the members
of his family and the hired men had
just awakened. The barn destroyed to
day replaced one that was consumed in
a Are four and a half years ago. The
origin of that fire has always regained
a mystery. *
