Tales of Well President and Mrs. Ha - During Homecomin | President and Mrs. Harding's visit ito Marlon during home-coming week will be an important episode in the municipal history of that now famous little city and White Oaks, the pros- perous farm of Gen. Sawyer, on the outskirts, will pass into the annals as having served as a temporary White House. Marion's celebration is one of the many projected all over| Ohio, and which include many historic | anniversaries, as well as clvic mile- | stones. Ohlo, the sonorous Indian word. which means a beautiful river, dates her history back to the forma-| tion of the colony on Laramie's creek, | in Shelby county, to 1749, and while the Pacific coast will be celebrating the centenary 'of the great hegira across the plains in search of gold, Ohio will mark the two-hundredth of her existence. Nearly all of Ohio has celebrated a centennial and next year some of the older cities. Marietta. Cleveland, Co- lumbus, Gal}ipolls, Franklin, Cincin- nati, Hamliiton and Dayton, will hold special exercises to mark the pass- ing of the 126th year of their munici- pal history. All of these and several | more were incorporated and thrifty when the first territorial legislature! met in 1799. i The President takes the keenest in- ! terest in history of every variety, and | that which concerns his home state makes a special appeal and he is pre- ipared to appear at as many of these {local celebrations as time will permit.

Mrs. Post Wheeler. When the Chief Justice was sent by Presi- dent McKinley to be governor gen- eral of the Philippines the acquaint- {ance began and has ripened into the | deepest attachment. Mrs. Taft and {Miss Rives—as Mrs. Wheeler was then—made many fascinating excur- slons together into the byways of | travel, cspecially in Japan. They also, made a long excursion into Siberia and were among the first passengers on the Russion--Siberian railroad, | which has such an extensive history in diplomacy. But the trip which stands out above all others was that one day in Paris, in which they slipped away from the official party, of which Judge Taft was chief, and, taking as fast a train as Europe could boast about 1903, arrived in the French capital about 8 o'clock in the morning and through messengers prepared the great designers and mil- liners of their desire to shop quickly and just what they wanted. They began about 9:30 to look over wraps. for day and evening wear, and in an hour had purchased for a year in that’ line. Then came gowns, which con- sumed two more hours, then the ac- TR, cessories, which every well informed woman knows can be gotten only in Parls, took another hour, and hats. gloves, hosiery and lingerie were purchased until about 4 o’clock when, tired, byt content, they caught a train to Havre and joined the other portion of the party in time for the steamer’s sailing. Both ladies were entirely satisfied witi the result of that day, and Mrs. Taft often boasted that in that rapid work she had solved the problem of raiment, winter and sum- mer, for a full year. Queen Mary of Britain is as famil- far to the public, in the flesh and by the camera, in her neat, close-fitting turban, as her august mother-in-law, Queen Victoria, was for her wide, high bonnets, with rigbons tied be- neath her ample chin® en King George and his gonsort appeared a few weeks ago at the Drury Lane Theater to honor Sir Harry Lauder’s fifirst appearance after a lengthy so- journ in foreign parts, the audience ‘was at first uncertain about the iden- tity of the 1ady in the high hat, made with Russian headdress effect and of generous proportions, and it required a‘ minute's scrutiny before the queen was recognized. It was instantly de- cided that the change was impres- sive and becoming and, through ‘medium of the court circular, issued the next morning, an interested pub- lic learned that the new shaped hat was of “sllver gray, with the high, broad front seen recently in the wedding_colffture of Mrs, Catherine Hughes Waddell, was of tissue deli- | cately embroidered in thistles, an ad- Y | ditional - compliment N | Lauder’s 8cotch origin, and the gown, Y {also of silver b!ll:;le l;ve‘r Plhle-xrly satin, was embroidered in the soft, natural shades of Scotland's national 'flowor.

During the years when other parts of the world were shut | off because of the war, Mrs. Cameron spent much time profitably in Alaska and the mainland to the west. For three years past she has been in the southern hemispheres, both South America and the vast continent of Australasia. Her two books on the South Sea Islands are declared to add | & much to the fine volumes of the |nig American author, Frederick O'Brien. American art collectors are awake to the alarm felt throughout Great Britain and the continent because of the wholesale purchasing of renown- ed treasures and their importation to thr western world. Great Britain has recently passed another law, which compels owners of paintings, scrulp- tures, armour, and curious of a certain age and value. to offer them firat to the government before seeking alien | purchasers. Of course, the British government will not pay the prices which American millionaires, offer. | and there is much dissatisfaction.

He is in court attire of crim- | son_satin, with a pensive face and dark, brooding eyes. The original was in his tenth year when he sat for the master, and the picture is of haunting beauty. !
