MISS BETTY HAMILTON. NEW YORK, Aug. 20. Miss Betty Hamilton, the pretty daughter of a wealthy English planter of Gautemala, who recently arrived from England, admitted that she jilted the English lad, to whom she had been engaged to marry when she left New York several months ago. Miss Hamilton inferred that her decision was actuated partly by the ardent wooing of a young Canadian and partly because of the fact that the nobleman was so clumsy when attempting to execute the difficult steps of the turkey trot and other one-step dances.

institution in practically every Ameri

can household for years and years. The opposition to this famous repast was based on the idea of giving woman one day each week to herself so that in this respect she might be placed on an equality with man. Mrs. Ida Grya Scott, of Indianapolis, member of the board of directors of the Indiana League, assailed the campaign as nonsensical and as being at variance with the essential aims of the suffrage movement. She declared that suffrage purposed giv

ing more to mankind rather than taking away something, and that it was

an unlikely probability that the Woman's Suffrage League of. Indiana would advocate the anti-Sunday dinner crusade.

"The matter of big Sunday dinners is up to the individual for solution." declared Mrs. Scott. "It would be folly for our organization to attempt to order or request housewives to loaf

on Sunday even should we wish to do

so. Personally my greatest delight is in preparing a perfect Sunday dinner and I believe such is the case with a majority of Hoosier women. "As seekers after the right to vote we don't want to take liberties away from people we want people to have more privileges."

(National News Association) INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 2. Incompetent fourth class postmasters, of which there are many in Indiana, according to reports of inspectors, will be weeded out by a stiff mental quiz under the supervision of the civil service commission in September. Complaints registered indicate that many postmasters are totally unqualified for holding such positions, but these reports will not figure against them if they can survive the examinations proposed by the commission which will send special examiners in to Indiana to supervise the work. Any person desiring to try for appointment

will be eligible to take the examina

tions, the papers of which will be sent to Washington. While there will be no "catch" questions, the candidates will be expocted to correctly answer such questions as will prove their capability for holding such office. Politics will cut no figure in the competition, it is said.

A yacht that will meet the other American sloops in the race to determine the boat that is to meet Sir Thomas Lipton's challenger in September, 1914, is being designed here by Bowes & Mower. The ship will be built in this city with funds subscribed by members of the Corinthin Yacht club, who are said to have pledged $100,000 for

the purpose.

City car No. 335 jumped the track yesterday evening at 5:30 o'clock immediately in front of the south gate of the Chautauqua grounds and delayed all the city cars and the six o'clock interurban. The street car was running from the east and jumped the track just the other side of the switch which runs into the Glen park. Another city car was attached to number 335 and an attempt to jerk it on was made without success. A call was then sent Into the car barns for a work car. The six o'clock interurban was coming in and it was attached to the other end of the car without any re

Changed With Time. The word "affectionate" is an instance of how meanings change, for an affectionate person was originally the reverse of agreeable, the word meaning passionate or willful., John Knox in 1554 writes of "the government of an affectionate woman" being "a rage without reason," and a century later another writer deplores the evils of affectionate soldiers. And now, as any nursemaid knows, affectionate soldiers have no evils. London Standard.

How Coal Is Watted. Not only the mine owner and his employee are censurable for waste. It has been estimated that the railroads, the largest consumers f coal, utilize less than 50 per cent of the heat in the coal which they burn under their locomotives. If CO per cent Is wasted by the operator and 50 per cent of that is lost by the railroads only 30 per cent is actually utilized and 70 per cent is wasted, and not the railroads only, but all consumers are equally wasteful.

ft Relation to the Equinoxes and the Solstices. The sun's path is called the ecliptic. Jt is a great circle of the celestial Sphere, cutting the celestial equator at two points ISO degrees apart and making with it an angle of 232 degrees known as the obliquity of the ecliptic. The crossing points are called the equinoxes, because the days and nights are then equal, and the points midway between the equinoxes are the solstices, because the sun then seenls to stand Btill for a few days. The ecliptic is so called because eclipses occur only when the moon is crossing it or is near it, for the moon's orbit cuts the ecliptic in two points, called nodes or knots, and at other times is above or below It. If the

jnoon, when in either node, is in line with the sun and the earth we have

an eclipse, either total or annular. If ehe is near her node we have a partial .eclipse. The moon's nodes are not stationary, but move backward on the moon's orbit, completing a revolution in about nineteen years, when the eclipses of the period recnr in the same order and at about the same Intervals as before. This period of eighteen years and eleven days is called the saros. It was known to the Chaldeans and the Greeks and gave them their data for computing eclipses. Any intelligent person' can trace the Bun's pnth in the heavens. If the sun rises exactly In the east and sets In the west It Is the time of the equinoxes. If the sunrise and sunset boints are farthest north and the sun ,tot noonday is highest in the heavens lit Is the time of the summer solstice.
