WANTED ? A middle-aged lady to tak
Charge of a country hotel. Inquire
room 328. Arlington hotel, between
10 a. in. and 1 p. m.
The Arlington hotel was stormed
by women yesterday, who came in an
swer to above advertisement, which
appeared in the Post-Intelligencer yes
terday morning. The telephone, too,
kep' up a constant jingle with the
calls of the applicants who did not an
swer in person. At one time more
htan a score of women waited at the
door of room 32S while others bided
their time in the lobby of the hotel.
The occupant of room 32S Is B. J.
McGee, proprietor of a hotel at White
horse, Yukon territory, who came out
two weeks ago to spend a vacation.'
Among the Alaskans and Klondikers1
who are in Seattle for the winter, Mr
McGee Is reputed to be something of ,
a humorist and the advertisement w&
tho work of his friends, who boMeved
that a crowd of women pounding on
his door would furnish a situation bu
bling over with humor. Knowing no
thing about the purpose of the numer
ous visits, Mr. MoGce barricaded him
self and called on the office for holp.
By a little strategy Mr. McGee suc
ceeded In getting out of the room"
through a side door and left the hotel
to spend the afternoon on Pugot
At the hotel office, it was explained
' the visitors that the whole thing
was a Joke, plotted by friends of Mr."
McGee, but this view of the caBe was
not shared by the women who wanted
to see Mr. McGee and to explain to
him that it was no joke. Ai this Idea
had already impressed the occupant
of room 328, he remained a < i.v until

BRUSSELS, Belgium.? The atroci
ties perpertated by Kins Leopold of
Belgium, through his representatives
In the Congo Free State, are to be I
exposed at last in a court of law.
The torturing and maiming of de
fenseless native men, women and chil
dren, which have aroused the indig
nation, but never the active interfer
ence of the civilized world, will be
bared, and it is hoped, proved bv
Lieut. Eiuil Dorpelhaus, naval officer,
who. with utter disgust, has given up
iiis contract as an official in the Con
po to come home and reveal to hLs
countrymen the horrors that he has
witnessed with his own eyes.
Lieut. Durpclhaus has been for two
years in the employ of the Societe
Antonyme Bolge in the Congo. He
managed to endure the sight of a na
tive man flayed alive because he had
failed *o bring In the assigned tribute
of rubber to the Belgian officials. But
when the lieutenant beheld a woman,
bound hand and foot upon a hill of
red ants and devoured by the Insects,
he gave up his -com mission and re
turned to this country.
The company, alleging breach of
contract, refused to pay his back sal
ary or reimburse him his expenses.
The lieutenant admits breaking his
contract. He Is now suing the com
pany and there is to be a court hear
ing, at which the atrocities of the
Congo will be brought home to King
Leopold and laid bare as they never
have been before.
EMS DIVE
FOB COINS
As we drew in and came to anchor i
we saw descending upon us a fleet of
small, carious boats tilled with half
naked men. We suspected now that
Madeira was a cannibal island and pre
pared for the worst. It was not quite
as bad as that. They merely wanted
us to throw coins over into the liquid
azure which they call water In this
country, whereupon their divers would I
try to Intercept the said coins some
where between the top and bottom of
the sea. We didu't believe they could
do it. but we tried and. as usual, found
that the other fellow knew his own
same better thau we did.
If those amphibians did not always
get the coins they generally did. They
could see them perfectly In that amaz
ing water, and they could dive like
seals. Some of the divers were mere
children? poor, lean creatures who
stood up in their boats and shouted
and implored and swung their arms In
a wild invitation to us to fling our
money overboard. But they did not
want small roney? at least not very
small money. Tliey declined to dive for
pennies Perhaps they could only dis
tinguish the gleam of the white metal.
Let a nickel or a dime be tossed over
and two or three were after it In a
flash, while a vehement outbreak of
Portuguese from all the rest entreated
still further largess. It was really a
good show. and. being the first of Its
kind, we enjoyed it.? Albert Blgelow

A FAMOUS
The remark which Steele made In
reference, as id' generally supposed, to
Lady Elizabeth Hastings has often
been quoted and almost as often quot
ed Incorrectly. Steele wrote, "Though
her mien carries much' more lnvltitton
than command, to behold her Is an
Immediate check to loose behaTlor; to
love her was a liberal education."
There are two curious misquotations
of this bright and famous sentence,
which Thackeray declared to be "the
finest compliment to a woman that
perhaps ever was offered." One is in
the essay on I\?pe contained 1? James
Russell Lowell's "My Study Win
dows." "Was It not in this age," says
Mr. Lowell, "that looee Dick Steele
paid to his wife the finest compliment
ever paid to woman when he said
'that to know her was a liberal educa
tion?'" Here are two distinct errors
committed by so careful a writer a*
Mr. Lowell. Yet he Is ntft alone ift'thfa.
Arthur Helps in his romance ?of"Real
mah" has this sentence; "Steele also
did not 111 describe, though briefly,
the charm of being with a womin
whom he greatly admired when he
Raid 'that to be much with her waa in :
Itself a liberal education.' " We are
also told that Leigh Hunt once in quot
ing the remark incorrectly ascribed it
to Congreve. Here, then, are three dis
tinct writers of high rank who haw
shown how in a moment of careilear
composition they were le<T astray' by
?in Inaccurate remembrance. They had
no desire to misquote their author,
and they gave tho substance. But

Meaning of the Qreen Bough.
Tho custom of placing r green bough
on the roof of a newly'tooHf house i*
; not confined to Germany; but will. .
adopted by the French^ Canadians, wtto
brought it with them from Brittany.
The custom originated from- the super
stition prevalent centuries ago that
every tree Is inhabited by a spirit;
consequently It was belieVed* that er*
cry time a tree was felled another
spirit was dispossessed, and thia was
supposed to cause some bitterness' on
i his part against society. Rather' than
risk having these homeless and dis
< gruntled spirits- vent their 111 feeling
upon the houses under construction- or
1 upon the builders a branch waa' plant
; ed on the highest part of the house

supposed to be mollified, and If they i
remained so until Uwroorwrnpnt oa<

First Case a Rash Which Itched and
String? Threatened Ten Years
Later With Blood-Poison in Leg
?But B6th Times the Sufferer's
RELIANCE IN CUTICURA
PROVED WELL-FOUNDED
"About twelve or fifteen years ago,
while living; in West Virginia, I had a
breaking-out, and it itched ana stung so
badly that X could not have any peace
because of it. I saw three doctors and
they did not agroo on what it was, bo
one of them gavo me something that ho
calMd medicine, but I called it soda
water. I might just as well have
wsched in rain-water. Then I got somo
Cuticura Soap, Cutioura Ointment, and
Cuticura Resolvent and bogan to get
better right away. They cured me and
I have not been bothered with the itch
ing since, to amount to anything.
About two years ago I had la grinpo
and pnoumonin which left me with a
piln in my sldo. Treatment ran it into
ray leg, which then swelled and began
to break out. It got in pretty bad
nha(j*,- so I -went to a doctor, lie was
afraid it would turn to blood-poison.
I used Ills medlclno but it did no good.
So I. sent for another set of the Cuticura
Remedied. I used them three times
and cured the breaking-out on my leg.
Now I won't be without Cuticura.
