LIGHTS *SESS of NEW YORK Mrs. Ethel Weeks. The death angel visited the home of Mr. Lawton Weeks on Monday March 17th, and took away his loving wife, Mrs. JCthel Weeks. She was a kind mother and always had a smile for everyone. She leaves a devoted .husband, two little sons, her mother and father, five sisters and two brothers t besides other relatives and a IT i-' host of friends to mourn her <depar ture. She was a faithful member of the Double Ponds Baptist Church, a :good Christian mother and a kind and faithful wife. ? How sad it is to part with her, but God knew best. Therefore, we must submit willingly to His wise dealings. - While we loved her dearly, S’ The Savior loved her best HAnd called her frem this world of care To a heaven of rtat & Interment was in the Double Ponds 'cemetery, Che Rev. B. H. Duncan conducting the funeral services. Dearest Ethel, you have left u* For that heavenly world so fair; in the artaa of Jesus, ame free frem toil and Jfen. G. H. V ■■ Stolen Stool ^ One of the most agreeable restnu rants In the city Is an establishment in the market sone on West street. Here one finds the freshest food, the most generous portions and the low est prices. The place is never closed, and its busiest time is around 4 a. rn.. much sh in the famous Halles of Paris. That hour Is noonday for the truckmen and commission merchants, and their uppetites are tremendous. The other night I visited the restau rant for a steak, and the waiter neg lected to bring me a steel knife. I asked for one, and he came hack with an ordinary silver knife whose edge had been whetted on a stone. “We have no more steel knives tonight,” he said. “Our customers steal about three dozen a day, and we’ve run out.” * * * Important Quastion A certain spiritualist lias built with* In the last few months a large, well paying clientele from the ranks of New York’s Intellectuals. His special ty Is to put himself In what he culls a mood and communicate with the dead. Artists, writers and society peo ple are his customers. The other night a group attended a seance, among them being u very wealthy,Tory well known society wom an. She asked to communicate with her departed mother. The spiritist went into his mood, and soon the voice of the mother spoke from beyond the grave. It was too much for the so ciety woman, and she fell to weeping. She sobbed, sobbed and sobbed, un til finally the medium warned her that his wood was leaving, and she’d let ter hurry up If she wanted to ask her mother anything. Repressing her tears, the woman cried: “Tell me, mother, is there any one else I know down there?” • « « Specialization You can get a line on whither this age is drifting by visiting a certain parcel check room in the Times Square sector. At first glance it is Just like all check rooms—filled with steel shelves Just the right height to con tain handbags and brief cases. But there is a difference. One shelf is of unusual size, and is devoted to drums —snare and bass. It is always full. Tltere must be hundreds of Jazz baud drummers in town, and they have to park their instruments somewhere when they are not working. • » • Neat Trick I have often been amused by the pretty silly id<*n of having a disabled airplane lowed by another one. That Is still impossiUe. hut a pilot up in the Canadian woods recently thought . of a trick almost as good. He landed on a frozen lake and found that an other plane was marooned there. It hadn't quite enough (tower to lift itself off tlie snow. It would glide along on Its skis, rise a few feet, and then squash buck to the Ice. So the newly arrived pilot, Instead of giving the other plane a tow, gave it a Mow. He placed his plane in front of the other one, and both taxied across the lake. The first ship left the ground easily, and was kept only two or three feet in the air. The backwash from its pro peller really increased the air speed of the second plane, enabling tills ship to lift itself free. • • • Old Stuff St. John F.rvlne, the noted English critic and playwright says. “What jest Is so new ns the old Jest? Every joke, indeed, is new to somebody, however, ancient it may he to you. and In a few years a generation grows up which has never heard the chestnut and is ready to agree with you that it is the funniest, and freshest, that ever was uttered.” That may he true in England but not even Englishmen cun get away with that over here. A member of the young sophisticates reports that she heard Hugh Walpole in a lecture the other evening tell a story which she has already heard five times this win ter. “Really, some one should tell him,” was her reaction. ANCIENT VILLAGE FOUND IN YUCATAN Explorer Ducovers Town Not on Any Map. Washington.—An occupied Indian village, surrounded by a high stone wall, has l»ecn discovered In Yucatan by Cupt. Robert R. Bennett of this city, who Is conducting an important expedition in that land of ancient civ ilization. under auspices of the Mu seum of the American Indian, New York city. “This village,” said a statement from the museum, “is not on any map that is known nnd Its discovery is of the greatest importance, particularly as it is one of the few walled villages known to he In existence in Yucatan.” No description of the occupants was given. “The ruins are about 2,000 years old, according to one stela dated A. D. 200," said a statement based on a let ter from Captain Bennett. “They cover a vast area of ground, but nothing was found in the way of art. "The mounds are very high, with small temples on top, and ranges of buildings between them. The grand level plaza is reached by two terraces with steps varying from 150 to 200 feet In width. “After climbing one of the highest pyramids Captain Bennett saw unnum bered mounds and buildings, with an other extremely high mound some miles directly to the east. Other ex plorers have noted the two lakes at Coba, but from this high pyramid the expedition noted four of them In a line, running northwest to southwest; the largest is about one-half mile wide and three-fourths of a mile long. Tills is the one which Col. Charles A. Uml- bergh tried to alight on during his re cent aerial explorations to Yucatan, but he found it too small for this pur pose aid could only skim over It and rise again.” Captain Bennett reported the coun try is extremely wild and unexplored. The expedition also includes another Washingtonian, Crawford Johnson, son of Charles H. Johnson. The party left Valladolid on January 13 with six Indians nnd nine mules, going first to Cobn.
