Mogt of the hangers-on ap-, pear daily for the simple reason that the rich old girls insist on pay- ing for the drinks. Only one or two of the old ladies drink anything stronger than Vichy water them- selves, but they love to keep in touch with what is left fof their con- cept ‘of another day’s cosmopoli- tan life. = * © Most of these women left a splash of vivid color upn_ their day. Their lives in many realms made choice gossip for the newspa- pers and society weeklies. Some had money to begin with and wound up with at least one title; some mar- ried money and some reaped a reward from a successful divorce. All of them are definitely “women of the world,” equally at home in San Francisco, Chicago,'New York, Peking, Paris, London, Vienna or Prague. Their feet have always beat a snappy rhythm to the pipings of life. Through an entire genera- tion you could find them at the fashionable race tracks or horse shows or the gay sh.w places of the world. om In their day many were famous beauties. There is one in particu- lar gvho comes almost every after- noon to a littl room behind a popular American bar here. ‘Her sixty years or more do not hide the traces of past beauty.

One of the highway commission rules to which public utilities ha objected is that whereby the com- mission can force the removal of poles and other equipment from : state highway upon 60 days written notice. Protest against this rule has been filed with the highway commission by the Northwestern Bell Telephone company. The pro- test was referred to the attorney general with a request that he ad- vise the highway commission as to @ proper course of procedure. f A Thought Ye arelthe light of the wold.

It rather pleases me to have my impressions verified by one who has known him so long.” _ “What, then, was Leacock doing in front of the house that night?” urged Markham aciduously. “He might have been singing carols beneath Benson’s window,” suggested Vance. Before Markham could reply he was handed a card by the head- waiter. When he glanced at it, he gave a grunt of satisfaction, and directed that the caller be sent up immediately. Then, turning back to us, he said: “We may learn something more now. I’ve been expecting this man Higginbotham. He’s the detective that followed Leacock from my of- aes this aa ae ‘igginbotham was a wiry, pale- taped youth with fishy eyes and a shifty manner, He slouched up to the table and stood hesitantly be- a ee, SIGH aitorpe?, Higei it down and report, in- botham,” Markham ordered.

About half way to Blackwell's Island he stood leaning over rail for five or six minutes. Then he took a eznall package out of his pocket, and dropped it in the river.” “What size was the package? There was repressed eagerness in Markham’s question. Higginbotham indicated the meas- urements with his hands, “How thick was it?” “Inch or so, maybe.” Markham leaned forward. “Could it have been a gun—a Colt automatic?” “Sure, it cou suet tices fons right size. nd it was heavy, 'y —I could tell by the way he handled it, and the way it hit the water.” ine Ee be iei was pleased. “Anything else?” “No, sir, After he'd dffched the gun, he went home and stayed.

(To be continued) : MUSICIAN HAS MUCH TALENT Harry Farbman, to Appear Here Oct. 29, Taught by Master Teachers Harry Farbman, who is to ap- pear in Bismarck October 29, was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1906. His musical genius was inherited from his father, Who was at one time a tenor in the Imperial Opera House, Odessa, Russia, He was also the youth’s first instructor. Later, the lad’s genius took such strides as to necessitate the greatest teachers available for the insrument. Farbman’s father was about to take the boy to Russia, for study with the master teacher, Leopold Auer, teacher of Elman, Heifetz, Zimbalist and others, when Auer was forced out of Russia by the Bol- shevik uprising and for young Farb- man came his long-sought-for op- portunity. So it was that Farbman achieve such brilliant heights with- out leaving his native country. - In 1923, the youth won the dis- tinguished Auer scholarship, given annually in Chicago, and in the same year began his public career, having graduated with distinction, Tour Sensational His tour of South America was most sensational in spite of the araiked Brejpilce against North mericans who attempt something in the world of art. i Farbman made his first bow to American audiences in October, 1924, when he was immediately acclaimed by the foremost critics of the coun- try as the newest violinistic sensa- tion. After having played in almost every important country in the cour of the staten: witch bea brought tour of the 8, Wi different him in contact with types of audiences, he says in 5; of his own country: “Ni I find audiences more keenly sensitive and appreciative. America may be young in years, but the = tion of Europe has in com- mon when the question musical knowledge and spontaneous sion is brought, to the surface.’ Recent surveys indicate that 000,000 of the 4.,000,000 women who are empl United States, have sight.
