Vanderbilt in the children's court. The society has already more than a hundred members, has an office in the suite occupied by the Big Broth era, at 200 Fifth avenue, with a see retary and assistant secretary to at tend to the clerical work, asd to be always at the court whenever it is nto session and look after little girls who need assistance when the members of the society are not able to be present. Mrs. Vanderbilt, whose practical charitable work is illustrated in the apartment homes, with the maximum amount of sun and air, which she had put up for people with incipient cases of tuberculosis, began hgr visits to the children's court about fwo years ago. There she found representatives of Jewish and Catholic organizations do ing excellent work among their people, but there was no one from the Prot estant denominations to make a special effort to look after the children of their churches. There was so much work to be done that Mrs. Vanderbilt visited the courts at least once and sometimes two or three times a week, interesting herself in cases when there seemed need of assistance. Finding a little rag tag baby at the front of the stairs she would pick it up and carry it until she found the person who was supposed to be in charge of it. She visited the children she found in need in their homes. They did not know her by r name, but only knew that some one kind and motherly was interested in them. Then, the personal equation being such an important part of the work, she interested her two sisters, Mrs. F. C. Havemeyer and Mrs. Stephen H. Olin, whose names are among the incorporators, and some of her friends also came in. DUKE OF ORLEANS IS HARD UP : In the diplomatic and social world in London it is believed that the duke , of Orleans, who aspires to be king of France and keeps on wire pulling to that end, must be a bit short of ready cash. Otherwise no one believes that he would have sold his famous estate t of Wood Norton, "the home of exiles," as he has just done, the buyer being an English judge, Sir Charles Swin fen Eady, writes a London corre spondent of the St. Louis Globe-Demo crat. How much his worship paid his highness for Wood Norton it has proved impossible to learn, but it , must have been a tidy sum, for the house itself is furnished with a mag nifioenoe in keeping with the royal state which the pretender to the throne of France has kept up there, and the property, which is located near Evesham, in the valley of the Avon, extends over 2,500 acres and takes in several parishes. The man sion, which is a handsome one, with many gables, will need a lot of alters tion inside to make it a suitable home for an English magistrate, everything, from the door handles and the electric fittings to the oak paneljngs, being emblazoned with the fleur-de-lis of the royal house of France. However, its new owner can stand the racket, for, besides getting a fat salary as one of the judges of the court of chancery-which so many Americans believe to be keeping them out of big fortunes-he is said to have earned, as a barris ter, one of the largest incomes ever made by a lawyer in England. I DECLARES OROZCO HAS FAILED Gen. Braulio Hernandez, formerly a leader in both of the Mexican revolu tions, is now in the United States, practically an exile from his own country. At present General Hernandes Js at outs both with the government under Madero, which has had him indicted on a charge, of conspttacy, and with I Orosco, the revolutionary leader. "The revolution is not a separate p one from that which made Madero president," he said. "But Madero be trayed the trust of the people after • becoming president by allying hlmelf - with the wealthy class sad the corpo rations-what you call the trusts. At a my call the people arose to demand 8 what they expected from the revolu tion that ended in the overthrow of C Dias. "Orozco was not with us then. Later he joined us. Then the trusts, seeing they would lose, decided to di vide, half of them going to the aid a of Orozco, who was very popular then. I pleaded with him not to accept their services, but be would not listen. Now the people are fighting, but not with the same spirit." Hernandes asserts the principles for which the presen revolutionists have been fighting are revision of the codes and complete rformation tof the whole judiciary system, practical and general education, to include the chil- L dren of the Indian population, and the democratizing of the rural lands. SSCHOOL FOR MOTHERS OPENED And now we have a Schcol of Moth ercraft It is a New York institution and is probably the only one of its kind in the world; certainly it is the only one in the United States. . (4 Its director is Mary L. Read, who 1 is also its originator, and among those di interested in it is a list of wanen which might well be mistaken for an extract from the Social Register-all of them enthusiastic, helpful and con vinced that in the new institution something has arisen which will very ,greatly tend to help the nation. D Regarding the objects of the school Miss Read said: '"Ihe objects of the school are to A provide a competent, a very practical and scientifically true course tof in struction in those things which will enable the mother to make of her chil dren the healthiest, best educated and most honorable citisens. The school goes further than that, ie for it aims also to belp her to pfnBo5, in the first place, the right kind ad a child on which to work. The practice of biology ian the faly tncludes . la ie as well as the cae of the infaat sad the growg child There is as much for the unmarried girl as for the mar I ried woma to lhua, for the right stdy of egeaies will show her how and L whom to marr sad how al whom not to marry.
