sV JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE Nancy Wynne Suggests a Possible Reason Why an Invitation Has Not Yet Been Ansiccred She Chats About the Doings of Various People at Various Places I HEAR, that Newport Is still hoping to have the Prince there. In fact, the Historical Society nml the Newport Improvement Association have sent him ft spcclnl Invitation to go there, nut the sad thine is they have not heard Tet from H. n. H. XI was thinking nhout that today, and It occurred to me Hint perhaps Edward Albert did not feel like being improved. Tou see, an Improvement association smacks of uplift nml n lot of us are get ting pretty sore on this uplift business, you know: so after nil. maybe Edwnrd Albert took n squint nt that invitation and saw "Improvement" and decided that he did not intend to Improve New port nor let Newport improve him. Anyhow, the invitation still remains unanswered and every one up there Is hoping that he will go. Personally I wish he would. Newport has stood for the lending watering place In the t'nlted States social life for so many years that it does seem as if visiting royalty should be entertained there If It is pos sible. And Edwnrd Albert is some roy alty, believe me. BETTY PHILLIPPK. the daughter of the It. Pemberton Phillippes. of Devon, is having a wonderful time these days off with friends on a motoring tour through the nerkshlres. Hrrtton Woods and the rest of the gorgeous country in cluded in that ideal trip, and they are to finish up with n three weeks' stay in Poland Springs. Her fnther and mother nre out at Yellowstone Park and other interesting places in the far 'West, netty, you know, was recently grad uated by the class of occupational ther apy, which was organized by the Na tional League for Woman's Service and 'which had several other younger Flilln delpbians on its roll. Among them was Nancy Morris, Frances; Mears and Eliz abeth Pencher, of Wilmington, the last , named having just been graduated from Vassar when rlio started the occupa tional course. i "yESTEKDAY I heard that the pro-- cceds of the Indoor Horse Show amounted to .?7."00. including donations and the ambulance fund. The show was given in May. you remember, the eighth, ninth and tenth- The benefici aries this year were six hospitals, the American Hospital, the Polyclinic, the Oncologic, the Babies' Hospital, the Garretson and the Samaritan. Five i thousand dollars has been paid over to them and the rest will be paid shortly. This was the eighth annual show, and I hear that Mrs. Wnlter Hancock, who Is always chairman of the committee, is already thinking up attractive features for next year's show. It strikes me $7500 is very good for three dnys, one of which was a rainy one. BUT, talking of funds raised at vari ous entertainments. I had thought . the biggest thing I had ever heard of was that rummage sale held last year for the benefit of St. Edmond's Home for Crippled Children when the work ers raised more than .$17,000 for the home. But my dears, do you know that on that single day of .Tune 28. when the navy yard was opened to the public for the first time since the war, they cleared $24,000 for the Navy Be lief Fund. In one day mind you ! You've got to hand it to them, haven't ,you? rpHEY are both up at Winter Harbor, and at various times during the sum mer one or the other has appeared in n lovely, fluffy and smart frock and danced In said frock all evening. Well, of course, the gossips got busy as only the gossips in small resorts can, arid it was whispered about in wonder ing tonc3 "Which one do you think owns that dres and which one borrows rlt fpm the other?" And so the tnlk went on, till finnlly one of the girls heard a -breath of it . and after laughing over it a great deal called up the other on the telephone and told her of It. There was to be a dance the next eve ning to which both girls were going, and so Miriam suggested that they both wear those "bridesmaid's frocks" that night and set at rest forever the 'silly gossip. And the joke of it was, thct no one hnd ever thought of such an explana tion, though many knew that those girl had often been in the same bridal par ties. NANCY WYNNE.

The rnnny little Scotsmnn first sawed Scottish air with his restless little feet on November 25, 1S35. The humorist caught his virgin glimpse at the world in Florida, Missouri, a town as un crowded at the time ns Dunfermline it self, and away nt the other end of the world. Yet the lives of these two babies were destined to be strangely interwoven. They were both born poor. They both, by the restlessiics-s of their nntures and by the strength of their characters, moved through a life of activity from obscurity to renown. Without formal schooling, they both lived long enough and wisely enough to be honored by the highest institutions of learning in this country nnd on the continent. And they both died recognized by n world grate ful for their genius and generosity. One was a philosopher, a humorist, a philanthropist, a financier; the other was a financier of a sort, who made money but who lost most of it, a philan thropist, a humorist, n philosopher. Andrew Carnegie and Mark Twain met each other in middle life. The lat ter was suffering greatly from money losses resulting from his interest in the Paige typesetting machine, a wonderful invention, hut too complex to.be prac tical. A Proverbs Revised On one occasion Mark Twain sug gested thnt Carnegie take an interest in the typesetter and quoted the old proverb: "Don't put all your eggs in one bask-t." Carnegie stared at Twain for an instant, and answered : "Thnt's a mistake; put nil your eggs into one basket and watch that' bas ket !" Saint Andrew, ns Mark Twain was accustomed to call Carnegie, never took an interest in the typesetter, but when the project failed and later when Mark Twain's publishing house went into bankruptcy, the iron master was Imme diate in his offer of finanrial help. During the later period of Mark Twain's life, when he lived in New York, he was a frequent and informal guest at the Carnegie honie. Albert Blgelow Paine in his biogra phy of Mark Twain .tells the story of a luncheon given In Carnegie's honor by the Engineers' Club twelve years ago. Eighteenth street, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John McCabc, will spend the re maining dnys of August with friends in Sea Isle.

YOUNGEST SET Mark Twain spoke at this banquet and said : "I have been chief guest at a good many banquets myself nnd I know whr.t brother Andrew Is feeling like now. He has been receiving compliments nnd nothing but compliments, but he knows there is another side to him thnt needs censure. "I nm going to vary the compli mentary monotony. While wr have all been listening to the complimentary tnlk Mr. Carnegie's face has scintil lated with fictitious innocence. You'd think he never committed a crime in his life. But he has. Carnegie's Crime "fook nt his pestiferous simplified spelling. Imagine the calamity on two sides of the ocean when he foisted his simplified spelling on the whole human J race. We've got it all now so that no- body can spell. "If Sir. Carnegie Had left spelling nione we wouuin t nave nna nny spois on the sun, or any San Francisco quake, or any business depression. "There, I trust he feels better now nnd thnt he has enjoyed my abuse more than he did his compliments. And now that I think I have him smoothed down nnd feeling comfortable, I just want to say one thing more thnt his simplified spelling is nil right enough, but you can carry it too far." As Mark Twain was about to go," Mr. Paine writes, "Mr. Carnegie railed his nttention to the bcnutiful souvenir bronze nnd gold-plated goblets that stood at each guest's plate. He said : " 'The club had those especially made at Tiffany's for this occasion. They cost $10 apiece.' "Clemens snid: 'Is that so? Weill only meant to take my own; but if thnt's the case I'll load my cab with them.' " , Although Carnegie beat him into it, Mark Twain beat the "Laird of Skibo" out of the world by about nine years and Mark Twain considered himself fortunate at that. Toward the closing years of his life he envied the death of his friends. "Death," he called it, "the only earthly dignity that is not arti ficial the only safe one." "Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry." Mark Twain said thnt. And both Mark Twain and Andy Car negie endeavored to live thnt way.

In other words, jou must ent, drink and sleep It. He absorbed in It nnd be willing to give up a few other things in order to attain the sought for goal." That swimming, is without a doubt, the grentest of sports is the opinion of Mr. Hachrach. F,rn age makes very little difference, he sajs. The muscles are made more supple and the general development is more complete than in nny other sport. "You take a qunrter miler or nny championship runner and nt a coniparativelj early age he is used up," Mr. Hachrach pointed out, whereas swimming tends to lengthen the natural life." Like An Automobile Mr. Hachrach compared a swimmer to an automobile. "The swimmer has a motor, in the form of his heart, to take care of," he sajs. "If he overuns it, if he feeds it too much, if he under nourishes it. if he tries to do too much with it iu one day, why it'll go wrong. What motor wouldn't? So It all comes down to a question of training. If your boy of fifteen wants to become a great swimmer tell him, by all means, to go to it. If. as I say, he wants what he wants hard enough." . So. Johnny or Willie or Sammy, if you would have your den strewn with laurels, nnd if ou would be king in one of the mnnliest. cleanest nnd healthiest of all outdoor sports, want those things strongly enough to have the courage of jour convictions. HEARING POSTPONED AT ACTORS' REQUEST New York Strikers Score Point in Injunction Proceedings Brought by the Shuberts By the Associate! Press .New lork. Aug. 14. Inability of the I nited States marshal to serve writs on all the 200 actors named as defendants in the brench of contract suits instituted by Uie Shuberts, pro pnetors of the Winter Garden, was the reason given today before Federal Judge Hand by Hainhrldge Colby, attorney for the plaintiffs, for asking postponement until August 21 of the hearing of argu ments on the order directing the actors to show cause why an injunction forbid ding interference with the performances should not be granted. Judge Hnnd granted the motion. Francis Wilson, president of the Actors' Equity Association, all the other officers nnd many members prominent in the striKc winch has closed a dozen thea tres here, are among the defendants. Among the speakers at a mass-meeting of the strikers, which will be held ronav. will be representatives of the i nited Mine orkers of America and the milkmen's union. The membership of the actors' or ganization hns almost doubled since the strike wns declared a week aco. it was announced nt headquarters today. . .W1" -.w Amsterdam, nt which 7.ieg , . in L!

Their notion followed i evocation vesterdnj by Supreme Court Justice Lydon of nn injunction obtained by Florenz ZicgfcM restraining 'union ists from "interfering with" his pro duction by stepping from the cast. Grumbling despite restoration of their ticket money, the audience filed out into the rain-swept streets. In the Ziegfehj case Justice Lydon held thnt no actor could bo restrained legally from breaking his contract. At the same time he issued another injunction, this time in tnc case of the Forty-riKhth Street Theatre, "restrain ing ' officers of the Actors' Equity As soriation nnd the ense of the 'phiv.

Mr Shubert asserted threats of social and professional "ostracism." coupled with intimidation of bodily harm, are being used by the strikers as weapons against loyal performers. The results, accord ing to Mr. Shubert. nre crippling the casts and compelling plnyers who re fuse to brrnk their contracts to work under mental conditions which prevent the proper exercise of their talents.

Vlesel, ol the Brooklyn Navy Yard, by her grand parents. Mr. nnd Mrs. Benjamin Hutch inson, 45 North Third street, Camden. Little Virginia wept nil the way from her home to the train which was to take her to her father's horns in Brooklyn. At the grandparents' home Mrs. Hutchinson was also in tears. "This parting with Virginia will break my heart," she said. "The child is the image of her mother and seems like my own child." . The child's mother wns Lieutenant Viesel's first wife, who died when the little girl wns born. At the time of the mother's death the lieutenant was making bis way In the world and wns willing to permit the grandparents to keep the baby. lie had begun as n tnolmnkcr iu a munition plant and had studied dentistry, finally gaining a commission in the navy. A year or so after the death of his first wife, Lieutenant Vlesel met a young Germnntown woman and pro posed mnrriage.
