C., has been named to take charge of the de- livering of all articles for the navy. Divisions of the’ Navy League and the Daughters of American Revolution, un- der whose auspices some 300,000 men and women have been supplying com- fort garments and articles to the navy have been notified that articles in- tended for the sailors must pass through the Hands of Mrs. Frazer since the relations of the Navy league and the navy has been officially sev- ered as the result of the controversy between the league headquarters and Secretary Daniels. The notice was in the form of a letter from Robert M. Thompson, president to the woman's section and comfort committee of the league, the Daughters of the Ameri- can Revolution and its local organiza- tions. The association of Collegiate Alum- nea of America is asking that its many branches all over the country give their attention to adopting French orphans. At the -suggestion of Miss Caroline M. ‘Murphy, former president of the association that it |take up this work, the appeal found instant response and many branches have adopted some of the 150,000 fath- erless children of that country. The idea is to keep the children with their mothers. as much as possible. Thirty- six dollars is all that is needed for the care of one child during the year and a number of the well established branches have found it an easy mat- ter to provide care for some child for two years. : oe 8 | Women Are Responding. Another ready response was given Wednesday by Bismarck women to the call for Red Cross workers. Many came to the new headquarters in the second floor of the Postoftice and. of- fered their services. The great drive on the order for knitted articles has begun in earnest and the work will be pushed.so as to complete the list before cold weather. The need of workers is just as urgent today as the day when the order was received and the women of the capital city and surrounding towns are asked to aid in {the work. eee Bismarck Man to Wed.

WHEN POISONING WAS ART None Gained Greater Proficiency Than Marchioness of Brinvilliers In Seventeenth Century. The sixteenth and seventeenth cen- turies developed a large number of persons who brought the crime of pol- soning to an art. None attained great- er perfection in this than the march- foness of Brinvilliers, She was the daughter of Dreux D’Aubray, a high official in the reign of Louis XIV. In 1651 she was married to the marquis of Brinvilliers, heir to an enormous fortune. She herself brought a consid- erable dowry. She was a woman of prepossessing appearance and great charm. She lived happily with her husband until one Sieur Godin, commonly known as St. Croix, was introduced into the family. The marquis took a great liking to him, and St. Croix made his home with the aristocratic couple. The march: foness soon fell in love with the ad- venturer. De Brinvilliers had St. Croix imprisoned in the Bastille, Here the latter met an Italfan who was an adept in potsons, and he taught St. Croix his arts. When the latter was released, after a yeur’s confinement, he resumed his acquaintance with the marchioness, but more cautiously. The Italian came out of prison and entered the services of the pair. They at once entered inte schemes to poison the woman's father, her two brothers and her sister, so ag to get possession of the family fortune, They succeeded in all cases except that of the sister. Yet they escaped suspicion and would have gone free had it not been for an accident. While mixing poisons the mask worn by St. Groix fell from his face and he was suffocated by the poisons he was pre- paring for others. Then the whole dark tale was unfolded and all were condemned to death, HOME OF EMPRESS JOSEPHINE Fort de France on Island of Martl- nique Interesting as Birthplace of Napoleon’s First Wife. The little town of Fort de France on the island of Martinique in the French West Indies is of the greatest inter- est to travelers, because it was the early home of Mmpress Josephine, the first wife of Napoleon, She was the daughter of a French army officer who lived on a large estate about five miles from the town, Here Josephine was born in 1763 and here she lived until she was ried to her first husband, Beauharnaise, when she was sixteen years old, The future empress seems to have had much education and to have lived the simple tife on a West Indian. plan- tation. The site of ker birthplace is still known.and it is delightfully situ- ated in a grove of trees near the banks of a small river. A certain pool in this stream is still known as the bath of the empress, and here the creole beauty, according to local tradition, al- ways took her morning plunge. After her separation from Beauhar- naise Josephine returned to Marti- nique and to the quict life of the little island. Passages from her diary at that time show that she was very fond of her rambles in the woods and of the quaint, easy social life of the place, She passed three years there with her little daughter before returning to France to become the wife of a world conqueror and one of the most famous beauties of Europe. A statue of the empress has been erected in the square at Fort de France. It conveys a charming im- ruled the man of destiny and of whom he said that she was a mistress of the art of pleasing.
