"mF-WW- JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE If j Nancy Wynne Speaks of the at the Gladstone Yesterday Birth of a Son to the IT WAS with grout resret that I learned of the death yesterday morn. ing of Sirs, rhilip Leidy. Mrs. Leldy, who was the mother of the two doc tors, Joe' and,, Clarence Leldy, and of Mrs. Morgan' Churchman mid Miss Gertrude Leldy, was Miss Penelope Fontaine Maury Polk, of 'Winchester, Va. She met Doctor LeW nt the time of the Civil War and came here to Philadelphia to lire as a bride in the early seventies. Her husband's brother win the scientist, Dr. Joseph Leldy, and clr oldest son. 'the present Dr. Joseph Leidy, was named for his uncle. Some of the older generation will re member hcurlnc of the grcnt love be tween the two brothers and the strange coincidence of their deaths occurring within twenty-four hours of each other, Dr. Joseph dying before Dr. Philip. Mrs. Leldy and her two daughters lived at the Gladstouc for many years, and the younger daughter, now Mrs. WAln Morgan Churchman, was mar ried while living tere, thpugh her mar flare was celebrated at her brother Dr. JoC Leldy's home. Mrs. Leidy was greatly loved, and In spite of an illness which steadily and Blowly grew worse year after year re tained her cheerful outlook on life to the very end. She was witty, gener ous, charming, most brave under Isuf ffering and interested in all about her. Her death comes as a great sorrow to her family and very many friends. Mrs. Leldy's grandchildren nre Mrs. Hamilton Cbcston, who was Cornelia Leidy, J.'hllip and Carter Leidy, chil dren of the Joe Leidys, Morgan Churchman, Jr., and Dr. Clarence Leldy's little daughter Helen. HOW strnnge it is that often with sorrow comes joy. This must be eo in the case of the James Francis Sulllvans, for while they are sorrow ing deeply over the death of Mrs. James Clews, Mrs. Sullivan's sister, on Thursday last, they have been called upon to rejoice on the birth of a little grandson on Saturday, August 10, to their daughter, Lcta Sullivan iiouman. I HEAR, that Mary Glendinning and MnrHs Freeman have decided to call off their engagement. I do think this is so sensible. They were both very young when it was 'announced. Mary is only nineteen now, you know, nud the engagement was announced before she was eighteen. Of course, In those rinvs everv one was eettine engaged be fore the men went off to war, and it was natural for some of the younger people to make mistakes. How much better to find it out before the bonds , nre tied ! "Sf takes courage to break an engagement after it has been made pub lie. and 1 think both these young people nre tp be commended for doing this thing nftcr they realized that they had . made a mistake. The Glendlnnings, Mary and Ellen and their mother and their cousin Percy nre at present up in Northeast . Harbor, and next winter Mary and Ellen will share the honors of debu tantedom in this city. They nre both of them most attractive girls, and there Is little doubt but that they will be us great belles as was their mother, who in her debutante days was Miss Bessie Carpenter. t WE REALLY are a democratic peo ple after all, even if we are not Democrats, as some of us are not. We were all so interested over having the Duchess or Itoxburghc home once more, seeing that she is an American and. , therefoie, belongs to this country, that hjj grace the duke slipped into this country quite unknown as it were so to speak. In other words, the Duke ot Koxburghe puf one over on the re porters nil right, when he arrived not only in New York but in Newport also and liau uecn. ' in the country several days before any one realized who he was. The round of entertainments has started for them now and they are evi dently ready to take part therein, for they appeared at? the Casino on Tues day to watch the tennis, and there are parties and parties to -be given for them. ISN'T IT A relief to introduce your friends as plain "Mr." now, instead of having to remember, "Now, he's lieutenant, and the other one is lieu- tenant colonel, isn't he, or is he just plain colonel, and if so which do I call him?" Personally I used to find it much easier to look perfectly stupid but very apologetic and insist on plain "Mr." And now that it's all over, I win, because I have nothing to forget. But these titles did make confusion. For instance, when the Lieutenant and his bride went to live in the apartment house they discovered that most im portant member of the family next door was Sonny, who was about, well he was under six anyhow. He made friends right away and discovered that it was really quite easy to say "Lieutenant." Only one 'thing worried him there didn't seem to be any "Mr." in the family. He puzzled . over it for some time, and finally fund the solution. After that it wop always "Lieuten ant P." and his wife, "Mr. D." NANCY WYNNE.

Hnmptoii Moore for Major in I'liiindclpnin. That wns the wny Mrs. Mnry O'Reilly line, formerly secretary of the woman's department of the Knights of Labor nnd new member of the Moore Republican enmpnign committee staff, summed up her idea of the relationship of Congressman Moore and the labor party. Mrs. Rac is lining up the women of the city in support of Moore nnd is urging them to make a house-to-house canvass to get voters to register cnrly. She is the first woman executive to join the campaign staff nnd she brings with her the interest nnd enthusiasm of many wage earners. "Mr. Moore hns been n sterling friend of labor ever since I hnve kno'un him, nnd that is since 1SS7." she said today as she sat for the first time at the shiny new desk in the outer office of the campaign headquarters. She wore a dark blue tailored gown of crepe nnd satin nnd a brond brimmed black strnw hat adorned with pale green plumes. Her graying hnir, combed simply, showed beneath the hat brim. Her grav-bluc eyes twinkled in friendly fashion as she talked. Supported Every Labor Law "Women rnn't vote for Mr. Moore, but they can support him in other essentlnl ways. Their advice and recommendation count for much. And certainly the wage earners owe much to this .man for his splendid influence for their benefit. Tn Pennsylvania he hns given his energy to the support of every lnbor law ever since he has been an influence in politics." Mrs. Rao herself is a true repre sentative of labor. Left an orphan nt the nge of ten, she nssumed the re sponsibilities of "little mother" for n family of thirteen children. The joungest child was less than two vears old when the mother died.
