Harrow, Eng, Aug. 24.-—Kate Doug- las Wiggin, the American author, died last night The novelist was taken seriously i1l on her voyage to England last June and went to a nursing yome in Liver- pool for trzatment Her condiion however was not regarded as critical and in a few days word came from the institution that she was able to spend much of her time out.of-goors. Kate Douglas Wiggin, often called the “prima donna ef literature,” was one of the most accomplished women engaged in literary and philanthropic work in the United States. It was back in 1876 that Mrs. Wig- gin, then Kate Douglas Smith, left her home in Maine and journeyed to California for the purpose of study- ing kindergarten methods She aught for a year in Santa Barbara ~ ‘sllage, and was then called upon tto . 2 Bireet Kindergar- 1S UP T0 MOTHER Youthful Sufferers From Nervous had to deal with | | have proved that air- |erated at night with a certain deg {of regularity with a very definite de- | |gree on the course flown and with a | four round trip test flights from coast ten in San.

Cooper, the noted educator, greater influence for a wider public. ‘Her first story, called “Half a Dozen Housekeepers,” had appeared in 1878, before she thought of giving | published and met with unexpected success. In 1888, Mr. and Mrs. Wiggin re- moved to New York, where she pub- lished “A Summer in a Canyon,” “Timothy’s Ques and “A Cathe- | dral Courtship,” which were trans- lated into several foreign languages, and immediately became popular in Europe. In addition to her literary abiiity, both prose and verse, Mrs. Wiggin was an accomplished musician, and composed several melodies for her favorite poems. Although born in Philadelphia in 1857, the c¢hildhood of Mrs. Wiggin was spent in Hollis, Maine, where her | father, a lawyer, removed ~lmrt|y after her birth. She was edycated in Abbott Academy, Andover, Mass. Mrs. Wiggin's second husband was George Christopher Riggs, whom she married in 1895, six years after the death of Samuel Wiggin. She con- | tinued to reside in New York, spend- | ing her summers: in Hollis. | In June, 19 Mrs. Wiggin was taken seriously ill in Kngland, where { she had gone to attend the Dicken: Fellowship as a delegate from New | York. who | assisted Mrs. Wiggin in forming the | |cago to Cheyenne exclusive of ter-| | can be which to review year,” he con- least two weeks in the work of over cluded.

During the three 24 hour periods in which the night flying experiments have been conducted, ap- | proximately 75,000 letters have been transported by the air mail service from coast to coast. | At IFort Crook there were assembled last night a large group of transpor- tation officials. Their presence elicit- ed a comparison between the costs of establishing a double track railway ‘and tiiose of laying out @ modern air- ‘“dy complete with terminals, radio, signal lights and ground equipment. | It was learned from post office depart- | ment officials that $500,000 was the | approximate cost of the permanent | terminals and the special night route equipment extending- for practically | 1,000 mil; from the Great Lakes to the Rockies or at the rate of $500 a | mile. Railway officials stated that a | double track railway over the same | one thousand miles stretch from Chi- | a | minals probably could not be built | for less than $75,000 or $100,000 a tile, Postmaster Genegal New added to his appreciation of the air mail by the fnlln\\'!n&fllpgrflm which was re- ceived at the fleld by Col.
