Although the club la nonpartisan and
nonpolitical. Its projectors believe It
will wield a largo Influence In national
and Industrial affairs through its op-
portunities of informal discussion. Men
of prominence and Influence can meet
there, talk there and obtain the opin-
ions of others there without fear of
committing themselves to anything and
without fear of what they may say
being considered official.
Work on the clubhouse will probably

which she will be equipped for life sav-

consist of a cableway and breeches

makes It possible for persons to be

Walden’s ridge, near Chattanooga.
Tenn., will, if certain large plans now
afoot go through, become within a yeai
or two the home of the greatest coun-
try club in America, If not in the world.
The organization, which will be
known as the Interstate club, has al-
ready been formed and Is founded >>:i
the idea that there is room In the
United States for a great nonpolitical,
nonsectional association to which cltl
zeus, big and little, of every state in
the Union may repair for recreation
and friendly Intercourse.
The club wUl have a distinguished
membership. Senator J. C. S. Black-
bum of Kentucky Is president, and
President Roosevelt, Vice President
Fairbanks, former President Grover
Cleveland and William J. Bryan are
members. Some of the vice presidents
are Secretaries Root and Taft, Speaker
Cannon, Leslie M. Shaw, Truman H.
Aldrich, Joseph. Sibley, Nicholas Long-
worth, Charles S. Towne. Robert J.
Lowe and Senator McLaurin.
The clnb is chartered under the Jaws
of Tennessee and has acquired large
tracts of land on Walden’s ridge, con-
tiguous to the Tennessee river and in
the vicinity of famous Signal point.
The site for the clubhouse is on a
high plateau overlooking thirty miles
of beautiful country. The extensive
plans contemplate the erection of an
amphitheater and the maintenance of
fisheries, game preserves, golf links,
polo grounds and a trotting track and
the building at an electric railway from
the level of the Tennessee fiver to the
clubhouse doors. >
Engineers are now at work laying
out within the club grounds an auto-
mobile boulevard that will be thirty-
two miles long and eighty feet wide.
By reason of the vast tract owned by
the club and the tableland formation
the curves of the boulevard will be so
/*w and so gradual as to be hardly
curves at all.
Another plan Is to make the dub
members profit by certain locks and
dams now being built across the Ten-
nessee river. The clubhouse site has
been fixed at a point that wjll overlook
what wfll be a three mile lake when
the locks and dams are complete. By
means of the lake it wlll.be possible
for members to go from New York and
other places clear to the club float in
yachts. ■ ,y .
The Initial outlay for improvement?
will run Into the millions. The club-
house alone will cost 11.000,000 and the
automobile course 1000.000.
, The club will be Inaugurated on June
25 at a banquet on the clnb property.
Men of prominence will be present
■ There is to bo nothing exclusive About
the Interstate club. Founded with the
Idea that it should be nonpartisan and
nonsectional, it will seek to attract
men from the country over. The ex-
penses of membership will be small,
|60 Initiation fse and about* the same
amount yearly dues.
With a membership of from 250,000
to 1,000,000 It is expected the club will
have no difficulty In the way of financ-
ing Itself. All money received as inltia-

Mollie Brady, of an Irish Fair, Lives In
Jersey and Nover Saw Erin.
It came out the other day that M tos
Mary Brady, aged seventeen, of 83
East Forty-first street, Bayonne. N. Jw
a grandniece of ex-Mayor Thomas Bra-
dy of that city, was “Mollis Brady, the
Irish queen.” at the recent Irish fair
at Madison Square Garden. New York.
Miao Brady said, with a smile, that
while she was visiting the fair Mrs.
Elisabeth O’Reilly Neville asked her
to take care of her booth for a few
minutes. While she was in charge
tome reporters came along and decid-
ed she was tbs prettiest girl Ireland
had sent over to the fair. Pat Pow-
ers, Miss Brady said, decided not to
correct this impression, and a full
page, with pictures of Mias Brady, In
a Now York Sunday newspaper fol-
lowed.
Miso Brady attends the Bayonne
high sehool. Mrs. Neville said she
would take whatever blame there
might be for the deception. 8he was
pleased that an American gi»i ^should
have been selected as the most
ful at the fair.
Bo far as Is known In Bayonne, she
never vtolted Ireland.
Why You Should Teach Your Children
Jiu Jitsu. ” ,
One of the most interesting subjects
brought up for discussion at the recent
International congress on school hy-
giene was the question of Including
the teaching pf jiu jltsu, or Japanese
wrestling, as part of the regular school
curriculum.
One thing about jin jltsu iithat it Is
graceful. The throws and fails are al)
done when expert with an ease and
grace that are little short of marvel-
ous. What is of more importance Is
the wonderfully beneficial effect It has
upon the health of those little! pupils
who have already become proficient
and who number small mites of five or
six years. '
One of the mdst potent results Is the
Improved circulation of a child who
has been through a course of training,
the exercise Invigorating all the or-
gans and starting the ' cl?<*ulation
through brain and body. It permits of
no danger of strain apd can conse-
quently be Indulged In by the small
devotee without any anxiety on tin
part of the school authorities.
In the case of an exceedingly dell
cate child the result has proved satis-
factory beyond the most -sanguine
hopes, and the difference In the pby
sique of the little pupil, who number,
eight or nine summers, seems bilrdlj
credible after a course of only three
.months* training. 4
A lesson In jiu jltsu lasts from twen-
ty to thirty mlnptes, the movements
representing the art of self defense or
attack. Naturally enough, In the case
of the small people It Is necessary to
teach the n ttltudee one by one till they
become instinctive, the actual reason-
fng power which would direct when
they should be turned to account re

IRISH BEAUTY AN AMERICAN.
8on of Maxim Patents Devico Which .
Makes Shooting Noiseless.
A “noiseless gun,” for which Hiram
Percy Maxim, son of Sir Hiram Max-
im. who Invented the machine gun
which bears his name, has just been
granted u patent, threatens, in the eyes
of expe;ts, to revolutionize the world
of^rms. By the device the discharge
of a rifle or revolver Is rendered practi-
cally noiseless and, with .smokeless
powder, military experts’ assert, may •
lead to the entire equipment of the ar
mies of the world.
Mr. Maxim, who resides at Hartford.
Conn., asserts that the discovery of the
“silent firearm” really was an accident,
resulting from his study of the prob-
lem of silencing the explosions inci-
dent to tbe running of an automobile.
The principle involved Is similar to
that of the automobile muffler, the re-
port being prevented through the ac
tion of a valve which aljpws tbe gas
to escape gradually, with only a silent
hissing sound.
By this device, which does not alter
the appearance of any weapon except
for a small crosspiece near the muzzle,
the escape of the gases following dis
charge of the explosive is shut off Just
as the bullet emerges from the muzzle.
This result Is obtained by .means of a
valve operated by the pressure of the
gases sliding across the bore immedi-
ately after the buliet passes.
[, Preventing the gases from escaping
suddenly and provoking a consequent
loud report, this valve allows them to
issue gradually through a series of
small holes, thus obviating all noise
except a slight hissing sound. Am
munition of any kind may be used.
Military experts assert that thh
weapon holds the^power to revolution-
ize' modern methods of warfare. By

The princess Is probably tbe most

of the ladies of tbe royal families, who
receive orders and colonelcies and
things of that sort merely as perqui-
sites of their position. Her decorations
are in recognition not of her birth, but
of her art. Even so, they might be re-
garded as largely tbe product of social
“pull,” the grateful and perhaps over-
cordial acknowledgment of too rare tal-
ent in the nobility were it not for th^
fact that many of her portraits have
been bought for the great galleries of
Europe.,, a tribute to genius which is
never granted to mere social pull.

DEBUT FOR A BOY.
Brooklyn Society Fad Which Deprives
Girls of This Exclusivs Privilsgs.
Brooklyn society folk are in ecstasies
over a brand new wrinkle In the “com-
ing out’ line. Setting at variance all
tradition, the youths of the elite In
Brooklyn are breaking in on a prifi-
. te* whleh until tfow the glris toive
T* had all.'to themselves, that* of being
w“ . formally introduced to society. The
first presentation of a “male debutante”
took place on tbe heights. The affair
has been the all absorbing topic tn
Brooklyn society.
Young Herbert Dickinson Lewis it to
who has set tbe new fashion for tbe
growing up lads of Brooklyn's '’smart
set” Mr. Lewis, who recently turned
twenty, made his debut at bls home,
20 Remsen street The coming out par-
ty was given In his honor by Ids par-
ents, Mr. ailfl-Mn. Thomas Lewis. It
was a regular out and out debut, with
flowers, a tea table, a host of “the fel-
lows” on band and a sure enough re-
ceiving party of three girls and two
young men. Tbe receiving girls were
of course bewitchIngly gowned and tbe
boys moot correctly garbed. They—the
girls—were Miss Katherine Journeay,
Mias Dorothy Cockahew and Miss Mar-
jorie Webber. The boys were H.
Greenman Canda and Henry Carring-
ton. The debutant was “presented” by.
his father. Many flowers were--seat to
him, but he carried no bouquet. He
was attired in a black frock coat and
gray trousers, It being afternoon, and
also wore a white tie.
Almost everybody In Brooklyn soci-
ety is voting young Mr. Lewis’ debut a
charming Idea, aflff it la expected that
It will be generally followed for the
young men who have reached an age to

elder, smiled when asked about bls
