Lola Cotton is an extraordinary child, though Lola does not realize that she is different from any other six-year-old girl. Here are some of the things that she can do, according to the New York Herald: Blindfolded 'and with her back turned toward the other occupants of a room she will name and describe dozens of articles selected by any per son present. She does this without hesitation and with a rapidity and ease that astonish the listener. If she had eyes in the back of her head the answers could not come with more sat isfactory clearness and accuracy in nearly every instance where a test is desired. Lola can give correct answers to mathematical questions, both in arith metic and algebra, without an instant's hesitation. Blindfolded and with back toward a blackboard she will direct what is called the "Chess Knight's Tour" while the person with the crayon moves it swiftly from field to field until the en tire 64 fields have been covered in as many moves, without recrossing, con cluding at the starting point. Over this network of lines and figures little Lola leads the crayon holder. This she does without error, although the fact that she starts from any field designated makes it necessary that she should be able to follow 4,096 combinations to a successful finish. How does Lola do the things that no other six-year-old girl in New York can do? Does Lola know more than she will tell? Or knowing nothing about it, does the secret lie in the unconscious subservience of her brain to another's controlling influence? All that Lola does is performed in the presence of her father, J. L. Cotton. The questions answered by her are asked by him, although sxiggested by other people. Mr. Cotton says that the system is that of thought transfer ence that his blindfolded daughter's brain is in such marvelously intimate communication with the workings of his own that she can follow his thought while his eye* move from ob ject to object, and while they are rest- LOLA AT THE BLACKBOARD. ing upen some one thing she will in stantly know what the thing is, and will name it. He states that she her self will hold the crayon, and, blind folded, mark the chess knight's moves with as much ease as she directs his moves when he holds the crayon. She does this, he says, by reading his mind with a rapidity that "keeps pace with his own thought. In brief, Mr. Cotton saj's that Lola can solve any mathematical or chess problem with which he himself is fa miliar, and that she can describe any object blindfolded that is within range of her pojvers of description. She has never been to school and does not know how to read or write. Mr. Ctton saj-s that he has been in terested for many ears in psycholog ical matters, and one day, watching the baby—then four years old—at play, he wondered if he could exert unspoken influence over her. ne mentally com manded her to take up certain toys and lay others down, and the experiment proved successful. Fearing to affect her brain, he proceeded cautiously and by degrees, in the meanwhile subject ing her to medical examination to. be certain that no injurious results had followed. Lola is the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Cotton. She was born in Clarkville, Allegany county, N. Y. Hake the Baby Comfortable. Don't make baby's dress too tight, says a writer in Good Housekeeping, any a baby frets and cries simply be cause the little arms are restricted, or the neckband is too tight. By making baby's clothes large you will save yourself much extra work and many fretful days. My baby wore her first dresses until she wore them out, some being in use when she was two and a half years old. No change was necessary save in length of skirt. Recently I saw big, overgrown baby of six months whose yoke met only at one button. I asked the mother if I might loosen the clothes. I did so wind found that the sleeves, made for a small baby, now cut into the Tat arms. The baby at once stopped {letting. NEW MRS. VANDERBILT. Her Haabaad Ia the Actual Head *1 .{he Vanderbllta and a Maa with a Hlator r. William K. Vanderbilt and Mrs. Lewis M. Rutherfurd, wJho were re cently married in London, are pro nounced as handsome a pair for their age as could well be brought togeth er at the altar. Mrs. Eutherfurd'i second husband died two years ago at Paris, and she but recently re opened her fine house near the man sion of the Castellanes in Passy. She has lived abroad for many years, and was married 13 years ago in London to the late Mr. Rutherfurd. She was then the widow of Samuel S. Sands, a wealthy New Yorker, and had been the beautiful Anna Harriman. Mr. Rutherfurd was one of New York's best known society snd club men. He was a brother of Mrs. Henry White. The new Mrs. William is a perfect blonde, with a very handsome face, regular features, bright blue eyes and pure golden hair. She is immensely wealthy, and is the owner of the beautiful Tran quillity farm, a fine estate in New Jersey. She was one of the eight children of Oliver Harriman and one MRS. RtJTHERFURD-VANDERBILT. of the heirs to an estate originally valued at $15,000,000. William Kissam Vanderbilt is the second son of the late Willi'am H. Vanderbilt. He was born on Staten Island December 12, 1849. In stature lie is a trifle below the medium height. He is an able railroad man, safe, conservative and prudent. So cially he is eminent for his diplo macy. His wealth is between $S0,- 000,000 and $90,000,000. He is fond of yachting, racing, coaching, hunt ing and fishing. His friends call him "•Willie K." William H. Vanderbilt's last will and testament disposed of an estate valued at $200,000,000. He made Wil liam K. one of his executors and one of his principal legatees. After giv ing to each one of his eight children $5,000,000 outright and placing $5, 000,000 more in trust for each, the testator divided the remaining $120, 000,000 into two equal parts, leav ing $60,000,000 to Cornelius and the same amount to William K. Vander bilt. With the death* in 1899 of Cor nelius Vanderbilt William K. became the actual head of the family. In 1878 he married Miss Alva Smith, of Mobile, Ala., whose divorce and sub sequent remarriage are recent mat ters of New York family history. TWO SWEEPING CAPS.

Their Vmm la the Army Has Bees Abandoned tor the Wireleu Telegraph System. i' The'adoption of the wireless tele graph systems for transmission of messages apparently sounds the doom of the carrier pigeons in army and navy services both in this country and Europe but the relegation of the birds back to the paths of peace and good-will cannot be regretted by theit breeders and lovers. It seemed like an anachronism of nature ever to have converted the innocent pigeons*into war messengers but the exigencies of modern military services demand that every possible agency contribute toward' the one great, aim, says the New York Times. In Europe war pigeons have been used on a much larger scale than in this country. On the boundary be tween Germany and France there are more than two score pigeon lofts where carrier pigeons are kept. These birds are. trained to fly twice a week to Paris, and others liberated in the city fly to their'home in the lofts along the border line. England, France, Germany, Russia and Italy have car rier pigeon services in their navy, and at the regular fleet maneuvers mes sages are constantly sent from the ves sels to the shore and back again. So carefully has the system been devel oped that it would be difficult to cut off communication between warships and the main land, or between two armies in the field. In several wars the services of the carrier pigeons as messengers of im portance have been demonstrated. The first which excited unusual scien tific attention was at the siege ot Paris, when messages were carried out of the beleaguered citj' repeatedly by the birds. Even in the siege of Rich mond a few carrier pigeons were used, and the old blockade runners em ployed a number of pigeons to com municate with the shore, at desirable points.' The United States army car ried no pigeons in Cuba,, but a num ber have been in use in the Philip pines, where, they have shown their value in a number of ways. Some of the extreme outposts were connected with by carrier pigeon, messengers dur ing the troublesome days of the war, and since the declaration of peace ef forts have been made to"1mprove the system. When the English invaded South Africa they carried several hundred pigeons with them, and these were used in many ways. Pigeon quarters were established at Cape Town and Ladysmith, and from these places the pigeons carried their messages through the air. So important were the pigeons be coming as war messengers that the German and French armies were train* ing falcons and hawks to catch liber ated pigeons of the e*emy. These birds were taught to fly straight at the pigeons and kill them before they could start forth on Hieit mission. The carrier pigeon when first released always flies high in the wir, and wheels around a few times to get its propel bearings before starting forth on its swift journey. It is at this critical moment that the falcon or hawk over takes and destroys it. But the intro duction of wireless telegraphy is changing all this. From late reports nearly all the European nations are talking of abandoning their pigeon services. There is no longer any need of the birds. The line of development in sending secret mssages wilj be In the direction of electric impulses com municated to the air, and the pigeons will return to their original field of pleasure and sport. WHAT A CONSUL IS. Some Interesting Particulars of HI* Official Etiquette and Honor* Accorded. I was highly gratified to discover in the consular regulations that consuls of the United States rank with colonel» in the regular army, or captains in the navy, although, even before learn ing this, I felt quite as important as any colonel, writes J. B. Osborne, in Atlantic. The chapter on the official relations of consuls to naval officers was also pleasant reading. Whenever an American war vessel (or squadron) visits a port where a United States consul is stationed, it is the duty of the commander to send a boat on shore with an officer to visit the consul and tender him a passage to the ship. The 2onsul must accept the invitation, visit the commander, and tender him his official servioes. While the vessel is in port the consul is entitled to a sa lute of seven guns (nine for a consul general), which is usually fired while he is being conveyed from the vessel to the shore. The official etiquette re quires the consul to face the ship and at the end of the salute acknowledge It by raising his hat. All this has prac tical significance to our consuls at Mediterranean ports but none what ever in the case of Ghent, situated some 20 miles inland. But, neverthe less, Ghent is technically a "sea-port," thanks to a ship-canal to Teraeuzen, Dn the lower Scheldt, admitting ves lels of 18 or 19 feet draught. My vain iope was that some inquisitive man-of »*ar of the United States would man age to penetrate to Ghent whereupon ihe Seven Guns woul^ booin forth, shaking the dust of ages from the an cient belfry, and reverberating through the ruins of the medieval cas tle of the counts of Flanders.
