The romance started this summer, when Vilas ac- cidentally alighted near the tent where Miss Wharton was camping along the St Lawrence river, near the Thousand Islands. Following the accident, Vilas was Introduced and the two1 made frequent rides together. "It was while on our flights that I did my courting," Vilas says.

Harris Talks. President Harris made the an- nouncement of the gift at yesterday's chapel, and the news was received with a great deal of enthusiasm. Be then Introduced Mr. N. W. Harris, who talked to the students on Northwest- ern University, considering the spirit of the institution, its material equip- ment and his interest in it. He said he regretted the fact that he was not a graduate of the school, but his in- terest was none the less keen because of the lack of this connection with the university. N. W. Harris is one of Chicago's successful business men. Thirty-one years ago he came to this city with a capital of $30,000, accumulated through energetic work in the insur- ance business. With this money an<i an unlimited capital of business abil- ity he started in the bond business and haB made almost an unparalleled success of it For twenty-seven years he has been a valuable member of the board of trustees of Northwestern University, and through his keen and thorough business knowledge has been able to solve many of the financial problems- that confront the board and has added materially to the equip- ment and endowment of the institu- tion. J1jv.ES.Colbupn ment, played last week over the course of the Memphis Country club at Mem- phis, Tenn. The Evanston woman, who is representing the Olen View Golf club, was defeated by Miss Myra Helmer of the Midlothian club of Chicago. Mrs. E. T. Perkins, also of Evanston, met her Waterloo Fri- day.

Wilson of Long Beach, Cal., who is visiting his daughter, Mrs. Sidney Tait 1022 Oreenleaf street, has In his possession the head of a petri- fied fish. The outline of the fish, even to the eye, is perfect Mr. Wilson In- tends to have the stone polished and use It as a watch fob. He found it on a farm in Butler county, Iowa. ORGANIST RETURNS. Mr. John Doane, the well known organist of the Congregational church, who was called to the Pacific coast because of the death of his father. Rev. John Doane of San Diego, has returned. While In California Mr. Doane gave a number of organ re- citals. The newspapers there speak flatteringly of his work. Sir. William M. Ramsay, Who Delivered the Matriculation Address at Garrett Biblical Institute Is Interviewed. IS HERE FROM EDINBURGH Tango dancing is "stepping" away from religion and speedy automobiles are generally used in rushing away from church, according to the view of Sir William Mitchell Ramsay of Edin- burgh, Scotland, world famed archnol- ogist, who came to Evanston to deliver a lecture at Garrett Biblical institute Thursday. The scientist, seen at the home of Dr. Charles M. Stuart, 621 Foster street, devoted much of an In- terview to a discussion of present day religious observance. "The modern man and woman care too mucb for amusement," he declared. "Automobiles and dancing are lead- ing them away from rvligion, as It has always been considered. Not that real religion Is falling off. Far from it We are merely breaking away from the church, the existing forms of re- ligion. "I have many friends whose Ideas of religion are not compatible with those of the accepted churches and who shun churches on this account. Churches seem almost too well organ- ized and wealthy. This divorce from the church is leading many into mis- taken channelsâ€"the spiritualists and theosophists. for example." Worklna Girl at $6 a Slave. "People are censured for things to- day that were commonly accepted in the days of Rome," said the scientist 'For instance, there is slavery. The old empire was built on slavery. Slavery exists no less nowadays. Take your* working girl who is getting $6 a week. She is a slave. The indus- trial system is built and flourishes on labor insufficiently paid. The pay for most of the girls In the Industries nowadays is less than the sum that would keep them at the point of de- cent living." Sir William was asked of the visit of Mrs. Panknurst "I hare always been for suffrage, and still am," he declared, "but the ultra-militant spirit, Thorny estimation.- will never accomplish anything vital I believe It is in the minority in Eng- land and I am glad to see the United States without the taint of it. Women will have a good effect in politics." . 8ays More 8hould Play Baseball. Reverting to his earlier remarks on amusement and its relations to re- ligion, the archaeologist gave his opin- ion of baseball. "It is a beautiful sport," he ex- claimed. "But I think more people ought to play It instead of merely wit- nessing It. We have the same trouble with football games In our country. But baseball is beautiful and I shall probably attend a game while I am here." Sir William laughingly explained that his pet aversion is his confusion with Sir William Ramsay, the chemist of London. MotorcvcleSpeederWas Given $25 Fine by Justice Schatz Saturday. Justice of the Peace William J. Schatx followed the example recently set by Police Magistrate Boyer In join- ing the "safety first" campaign Satur- day afternoon, when he fined Charles Frey, 1020 Sherman avenue, Bvanston, a 19-year-oldrreckless motorcycle rider. $25 and costs for speeding. Frey was arrested Friday by Sergt George Pestka for speeding at the rate of thirty-six miles an hour in Prairie ave- nue. When arraigned before Police Magistrate Boyer, Frey asked for a change of venue, which waa granted. Justice of the Peace William Nor- kett, whose office Is located next nearest the police court, was not In his office, and the case was taken be- fore Justice Schatx, the next nearest justice. The evidence waa heard and a $26 fine Imposed. Frey began to beg for leniency and almost cried, ac- cording to the police, when the fine was levied. His plea availed him the suspension of $16 of the .fine during good behavior* but not until a severe lecture was given by Justice achats. "You need not think that you can jeopardise the Uvea of women and children in Bvanston by running a motorcycle at a terrific rate of speed through the streets and then come in here and beg for mercy and be let off with the minimum fine," said the justice. "This speed erase must be stopped if we are to preserve life. You've been In court before for speed- ing and no leniency should be shown. However, I will suspend $15 of the fine, but if you are arrested again and brought before me It will mean the payment of this portion of the line and also another heavy fine." LINCOLN SCHOOL BOY AWARDED HIGH HONOR Leroy Efflg Has Been Declared the Best Athlete in the School for 1913. Leroy Bfflg has been declared the best athlete in the Lincoln school of Bvanston for the year 1913. The honor was won last year by John Patrick.
