STUNG I
A fly buzzed all about
To find a passage out;
Then on the window sill
A ininutc stood quite -still.
I thought he was asleep
And caught him just to keep;
He looked so fine a fellow
With rings of black and yellow.
He scolded dreadfully
And stuck a piri in1 me.
I dropped him pretty quick;
My hand was awful sick.
BEFORE THE SANDMAN COMES
ONCE upon a time, the leaves of
the silver poplar were green
both ton and bottom iust like
the leaves of all other trees and the !
poplar tree was a nice proper tree just I
iikc an ouier trees.
Then something happened. Some
thing usually docs yoti know when
things arc entirely too nice and
proper.
One day, when the poplar leaves
were playing with the breezes, one
little breeze said, "Oh, you should sec
tljc trees in other countries as we do.
Sometimes .the leaves are gray, some
times paic green and some are I
brighter colors.
"Wouldn't that be queer?" said one
pf the leaves.
"I think I'd like it," said another.
"I'm tired of being plain green like all
other leaves."
And though the breeze laughed at
them, they wouldn't play because they
kept thinking all the time about their
color.
And the more they thought, the
worse it seemed to be green, just plain
green, al their lives.
"Isn't it horrid to be just a plain
'green leaf?" said one, "I'm so tired of
'being green," said another, .ill finally
they forgot that the sky was blue
and the sun golden all they could
remember was their common green
color.
At last the fairies who lived in the
tree got tired of their complaining,
and the fairy queen said: "If you

thev wouldn't play.
really wish to change your color you
may do so, but remember you can
never change back to the beautiful
green color you now are."
The leaves all laughed and declared
they never, never, never wanted to be
green again, so the fairy painters set
to work with their magic paint and
soon the leaves were grayish green
on top and silver underneath.
When all was done and the paints
carefully put away the leaves shook
themselves dry and began to look
around.
"Aren't we beautiful I" they exclaim
ed as they primped and preened in the
sunshine.
"Now that you like your color,"
said the breezes, "come and play with
us again."
"Oh, no," said the leaves loftily,
"we don't care to play with you any
more. We like to have you come and
sec us, for you turn and twist us so
we can see all our pretty colors, but
we couldn't just common play any
more, we are too fine for that!"
So the breezes came and stayed a
little while and swayed and twisted
the leaves so that the silver linings
glistened in the sunshine then they
went and played and frolicked in the
oaks and maples with the leaves who
were not so dressed up.
And ever since then, the poplar
leaves have been green and silver, but
the leaves are so stiff andjvain that the
fairies and breezes play in the old
green trees.

Tomorrow A Butterfly Dandy.
NEW YOIIK, Sept. 30.-Fire caused by
spontaneous combustion in the hold of
the steamship Santa Anna, of the Fabre
line, was dlso-vered early today, while
she raa moored to a pier at tho foot of
Slat street, Brooklyn. Several Ore engines
ftero rushed to the steamship's aid, but
the dense smoke made It Impossible for
,the tlremen to et at the blaze between
.decks, and they vere forced to work In
, relays to avoid being overcome.
. By 11 o'clock tho damage had amount
ed to 111)0,000. with the prospect of treblo
'that amount If the firelighters were
.unable to save somo of tho valuable
cargo of silks, velvets and herbs In the
ship's hold. Two flreboats were assigned
',to fight tho liie, and It proved so stub
born that Cuplain Paizoy said, he be
llevtd it was .fed with the big consign
ment of olive oil carried by the Santa
Anna.
Half a dozen members of the crew
were overcome by smoke In fighting the
Are, and wore rescued by shipmates who
risked their Uvea entering the smoke
niltU hold.
The hold In which the flames were first
dlcoerrd Is next to two coal bunkers,
which quickly became a roaring furnace.
Vast quantities of water were pumped on
the blazing fuel. A huso volume of smoke
settled over the neighborhood, and the
polke leservea were called out to main
tain the fire lines.
The Santa Anna arrived here yesterday
from Mediterranean portB with a list of
passengers, among them being Cardinal
Furlty, and a large cargo of mixed mer
chandise. A short time after the blaze
was discovered the ship's hold became a
veritable furnace, and the hatches wero
unsnippea to permit removal of part o
cargo. The vessel Is 550 feet Ions,
the
of 14,000 tons register and (lies the French,
flag.
Two days out from Naples a mutiny
broke out aboard the vessels among tht
stokers. Five of them were placed in
irons.

WEATHER IS BALMY AGAIN.
YET FOLKS ARE KICKING
Seems Too Warm to Keep the Woolens
on They Donned Yesterday.
The battle of tho seasons turns and summer
time Is rallying.
Oli Sol has tralncJ hli howitzer upon tho
autumn breeze;
'Tween garments of a gauzy kind and woolens
men are dallying;
Hay fever Kerms make sorties 'neath theli
heavy sun. the sneeze.
The sportive seasons played another
trick on Philadelphia today. Having
lured the city into donning its hcavy
wolRhts by cold, raw blasts from the
North, autumn today fell back upon
Its high tsround intrenchments to re
form. Summer, Its ranks riddled, It Is
true, nevertheless Is maklnjr the most
t4eL! res pi to today and Js doing its best
toaocelve everybody.
Yet folk are not happy. Not that the
Ideal weather Is objectionable, save to
the cold air pest who likes to walk
around In the enow In unshod feet, but
tho day Is too warm for woolens and
only those who care nothing for the
threat of pneumonia ventured out with
out them yesterday.
The Ice man looks happier again today.
Furnace fires that had gone out anyhow
during the night because of soot were left
to their fate this morning and windows
of ttolley cars Jammed shut to keep out
the airs were opened again to an accom
panlmpnt of withering sarcasm for the
conductor, tho motorman. the P. It, T.
and Its heirs and assigns. Tomorrow
autumn may attack again.
FAT MAN KEPT PRISONER
IN A TELEPHONE BOOTH
Onco Inside, He Couldn't Turn Until
Help Finally Came.
Hiram MattUon, of Wilmington, a man
of great girth, hurried Into a telephone
booth In the first floor southeast corner
of a City Hall corridor today and
slammed the door shut. The door is of
the type that folds Inward.
Nearly half an hour later one of the
elevator operators heard a dull thump
ing, ami Investigating found that It camo
from the telephone booth. Mattlson was
still facing the telephone. He was so
fat that the elevator man could not see
whether he was through talking. Con
cluding that the man was simply drum
ming with his lingers, the operator went
away.
Some time later a passerby heard the
same thumping He got close enough tq
tho booth to realize that Muttlson was
trying to get out, but, being too fat
to turn around and reach the handle of
tho door, found it impossible. Mattlson
leaned heavily against the door, trying
to open It. Several other strangers col
lected, until a score of men were grouped
about the booth.
An elevator starter who knows some
thing about doors finally took charge of
the situation. Directions were shoutrtt
to SlattUon. and after considerable twist
In and hard work the door was opened.
MattUun, blowing like a porpoise, growled
his thanks huskily and hurried off.

BRYN MAWR'S HEAD
SEES END OF WARS
IN PRESENT STRIFE
President Thomas in Address
to Students Predicts Uni
versal Peace Map of Eu
rope to Be Remade. ,
"This present war will be called not
only the greatest war In all history, but
,lt will, I confidentially believe, bo called
tho last great war.''
This waa tho predlclllort made by Miss
M. Carrie Thomas, president of Bryn
Mawr College, In her address to tho
students at the opening of tho 30th
academic year of tho Institution, this
morning. Miss Thomas prophesied that
In enso Great Britain, Franco and Rus
sia aro victorious nuropo will see a re
alignment of hatlonal boundaries In
agreement with tho wishes of tho
peoples now living under tho rulo of
Germany, Austria-Hungary and Russia.
"I believe," said Miss Thomas, "that
wo shall sec the map of Kurope re
mado before our eyes and many filched
territories nnd people either neutralized
or given back to the nations to whom
they belong by race or cholco, so that
there will bo In the future no bones
for tho hounds of war to snarl, oyer.
Wo shall have n united Poland once more.
It scarcely seems too much to hope that
we shall have compulsory disarmament
and a strong International police com
posed of land troops and a navy arid an
air fleet, with an international arbitra
tion court In perpetual session at The
Haguo with plenary powers. If Ger
many and Austria win all this may not
come so swiftly, but It is sure to come,
even If It comes at last through the
Intervention of all the rest of tho clYlUzcd
world."
DEPLORES WAR'S LOSES
Miss Thomas condemned the destruc
tion of Lou vain and tho Rtnlms Cathe
dral and said that as the result of this
war the world will lose tho most
treasured works of art. At tho same
tlmo, however. Miss Thomas was very
optimistic as to what this generation
will seo as a. result of the conlllct.
Addressing tho students on the point,
Miss Thomas said:
"Your generation will sec some very
wonderful world movements. First, uni
versal disarmament and universal peace
among nations. Your genomtlon will alto
see the abolition of the drink horror.
Already ono half of the territory of the
United States is dry.
"Other countries, too, are awake to the
temperance question. Great Britain and
Russia are dghtlrg this war without
stimulants. Your generation will also toe
the participation of women In every field
of human activity. Women will Interest
themselves In colleges and schools, asy
lums and hospitals, reformatories, pris
ons, tenements, mines and factories, and
will, I believe, do much to reform the
existing terrible nbuses. Only the mothers
of th world can set the problems con
nected with these things right again.
"Because of these opportunities I en
treat you to uso your student life at
Bryn Mawr College wisely. In studying
here you are doing what thousands of
other girls are longing to do. The privi
leges you have they cannot havo. If you
make the best of your four years here
you will be able to guide other women to
use wisely these new avenues of Influ
ence You will be able to stand side by
side with your college-bred brothers and
husbands. There Is no greater happiness
than the Joy of being able to use to
tho full all your Intellectual and moral
powers In being able to lead your gen
eration." Ono hundred nnd two students have
registered in the. onterlng class up until
th present time, it wns announced. Tho
registration of graduate students Is yet
incomplete, but H resident fellows and 22
rerildeiit scholars have been admitted. In
addition. In spite of the war, threo Ger
man women and one French woman are
expected to make use of the scholarships
for foreigners awarded In tho spring.
Before beginning her address. Miss
Thomas was pre.'nnted with a chequo for
J2C70. the prollte of tho great fete given
Mny 9 of this vear. The total proceeds
amounted to $M70, $1000 of which was
given to the We'.lcaley fire relief fund.
