THE FEMININE
FOR CHARITY
"Charity" said Mrs. Hun tor as sho
and Mr. Hunlor got comfortably Boat-
ed In tho olovatod train on tholr way
uptown after tho thoater "Is what
makes tho world go round."
Mr. Hunter looked borod and Indif-
ferent. "I know of othor things" ho re-
turned cynically "that niako the
world bo round. For Instance ob-
serve that young man across tho
aisle'"
"He's Intoxicated I" said Mrs. Hun-
ter In a shocked volco.
Tho young man In question was
trying vainly to snatch a fow minutes
of sleep with his oar on ono edgo of
tho window ledgo. Noxt to him sat
a rospoctablo looking oldorly gontlo-
mnn quite- mollow but not oxactly
drunk who picked up tho young mnn's
hat from tlmo to tlmo and nudged him
whonover ho was about to fall.
"Isn't that disgusting?" romarkod
Mrs. Hunter drawing hor skirts nnd
wraps closo around hor. "Why don't
you prnctlco charity?" sho askod ro-
turning to tho subject on hor mind.
"If you had hoard Mrs. Hardpon this
nftornoon at tho Ladles' Lccturo club
I'm suro you would "
'"I don't got a chanco" broko in Mr.
Huntor unfolding his "night odJUon."
"You give nil my clothos away to tho
Janitor boforo thoy aro half worn out"
"Woll I havo to do somothlng fo
placato him' protostod Mrs. Huntor.
"And bosldos I'm charitable" sho add-
ed virtuously. "Why Just look at that
old man" sho whlsporod Interrupting
horself.
Mr. Huntor looked ovor his glasses.
Tho respectnblo old gentleninn In tho
goodness of his honrt dospnlrlng of
waking up the Inobrlatod youth had
placed a protecting arm around tho
boy's shouldora and was holding tho
youngster's hat on his knees. Mrs.
Hunter watched him. fascinated.
nHn.t..nii.. it. ...... 1 i .11.1
ovor onto tho oldor man's arm. Then
tho old gentlcmnn patted the boy's
cheek smartly and began talking to
him trying to arouso his Intorost. The
youtirf man nnsweiod In monosyllablos
and without oponlng his oyos. Evory
tlmo tho old gentloman would stop
talking ho would nod off Into tho land
of dreams again. Finally tho older
man gavo It up nnd pressing tho young
follow's brown head down onto his
own shoulder let him slumber tlioro.
Mrs. Hunter fidgeted.
"I do think that's too pathetic" sho
whispered.
"Shut up" commanded Mr. Huntor.
"It's nono of your business. Look the
other way If you don't llko It."
Just then nbovo tho rattlo of tho
train nnd tho nolso of tho pnssongors
tlioro roso a cracked high-pitched mas-
cullno volco. Tho old man was sing-
ing a lullaby! Ho nodded across nt
Mrs. Huntor and dellboratoly winked
as ho pointed tondorly at his sleoplng
companion. Everybody In tho train
was smothering a glgglo by this tlmo.
But Mrs. Hunter only remained star-
Ing sorrowfully nt tho sight boforo
hor. Prcsontly tho train reached Fif-
tieth street. Tho old man shook his
companion gently roso unsteadily
pulled tho boy up with him ns tondor-
ly ns a mother might and still with
his arm around tho youth's shoulders
half helped nnd half dragged him off
tho train to tho platform.
Mrs. Hunter heaved a deop sigh.
"That ior father!" sho oxclalmed
pityingly as tho train started forward
again.
"Fathor! What rather!" asked Mr.
Hunter looking up from his paper and
regarding his wlfo In astonishment.
"Why tho poor old man with tho
drunken son" replied Mrs. Hunter.
"How his heart must acho!"
"Don't you worry about his heart"
rotorted Mr. Huntor; "It's his head
that's going to nche later. And doa't
you deceive yourself Into thinking that
ho's tho othor follow's father."
"Of courso ho Is" argued Mrs. Hun-
ter. "If ho isn't his fathor why Is ho
so gentlo nnd tondor with 1dm? Why
is ho taking htm homo llko that? Why
"necauso" said Mr. Huntor pa-
tiently "tho boy's drunk Isn't ho?
And tho old man Isn't that is ho Isn't
ns drunk."
"But that's no reason" retorted
Mrs. Hunter.
"It's renson onough for a man" do-
clarod Mr. Hunter. "Wouldn't you do
as much for anothor woman If you
found hor alono and drunk and help-
less on th" streets "
"What!" Mrs. Hunter's eyes blazed
with indlgtatlon. "Do you think I'd
lower mysof to"
"No" sak Mr. Hunter "you'd drnw
your skirts nsldo and sweep by llko a
blooming Plmlseo. Thai's what you'd
do. And thou you'd go next day and-
lccturo on 'Charity' at your tlssuo pa-
per club. Don't talk to mo about fcra-
Inlno morality or"

MOUNTAIN
ACCOUNT OF DUKE OF ADRUZZI'3
EXPEDITION.
Ascends the Klyanja Peak In tho
Mount Ruwenzorl Range In
the African Interior.
Tho Duko of Abruzzi Is back from
his rcmarkablo expedition Into the in-
terior of Africa whoro ho explored
tho wonderful Moon mountains as-
condlng Mount Ruwonzorl and scal-
ing Uio Klyanja peak a feat never
boforo accomplished. Tho lntropid
mountain ollmbor has Just paid his ro-
spocts to tho Royal Geographical so-
ciety of London through whoso gener-
ous support ho was ablo to carry on
his oxploratlous.
Tho story of tho duke's Journey
through Uganda nnd his ascent of
Mount Ruwenzorl is an interesting
ono as told by a mombor of tho oxpo
dltlon. Tho party loft Entebbe on
May U last and arrived at Fort Por-
tal fifteen days later whoro tho Brit-
ish authorities received thorn kindly
and gavo him an escort of 30 nativo
soldiers commanded by a Sudaneso cap-
tain for it must bo remembered that
tho duko had to travorso a strange
nnd in somo cases hostllo country In
ordor to ronch tho starting point of
tho ronl object of tho expedition.
On tho road from Entobbo to Fort
Portal tho duko was mot by several
chiefs who brought him tho usual
prcsonts of cattlo poultry and fruit
Tho party was accompanied by
about 100 nntivo carriors who sang ns
thoy marched somotimes war or lovo
songs sometimes a song thoy had
especially composed in honor of tho
duko "tho palo Mulanghlra (prlnco)
braver than tho leopnrd."
On reaching Fort Portr.l tho expe-
dition was mot by tho British gov-
ernor nnd tho king of Toru. Horo a
rost of two days was taken.
On Juno 1 tho expedition moved to-
wards tho valley of tho Mobuks rlvor
which springs from Ruwonzorl; tho
weathor which during tho first part
of tho Journey lind boon vory hot
grow gradually cooler until when tho
high glaclors wero approached it be-
camo bittorly cold. On Juno C after
seven hours of hard marching tho
party reached Kichlncln which Is sit-
uated at an altitude of nearly 7000
feet above sea lovol.
At this point tho Uganda carriors
refused tc proceed further on account
of tho cold and tho duko had to
chango them for eighty carriers re-
cruited among tho Inhabitants of tho
low mountains (Wakondjo). From
hero to Bujongolo tho party experi-
enced for tho first timo tho damp
woathor of tho Ruwenzorl district
mist fogs and rains through which
only at Intervals thoy could obtain n
viow of tho splendid scenery that sur-
rounded thom. At Dujongolo tho duko
ordered camp to bo struck and from
this place taking with him fotr trust-
ed Italian guides of tho Aostn valley
ho started on Juno 9 for tho ascent of
tho first penk of tho Ruwenzorl. Dur-
ing tho duko's absonco the camp had
to bo removed and pitched higher up
near tho glaciers but of tho eighty

First Time By the Duke of Abruzzi.
now carriors only seven could bo in-
duced to proceed and thoso only aftor
the promise of a large gift In money.
Three days later tho duke returned
after having reached the first peak
which Is 16000 feet high.
On Juno 13 a dramatic Incident oo-
ourred. For several days the party
had reason to suspect that it was
followed by some wild animal al-
though on acconut of the great eleva-
tion and of the rigor of the temper-
store such a thing seemed rather
atrafege. However In the evening of
(X tamo dT the Duke Abruiit was
Uttng In front of Ms toot giving ln-i
etruetlon to SIgoor Flllppo Bulll who
u in charge of the scientific seetlon
of tho expedition when he sprang to
his feet crying: "The leopard! the
leopard!" Slgnor Dull! turned and
saw a big leopard two yards away Its
eyoa shitting in the darkness with
gaping Jaws and on the point of mak-
ing a spring. Slgnor Bulll seized the
box whereon ho was sitting and
hurled it .with all his might at the
beast hitting It on the head. Tho
leopard leaped backwards and ran
away through the mud and bushes
howling wtth fear and despite a two
hours' chaso It was impossible to
trace tho animal.
On Jano 18 tho duko reached the
highest and hitherto untrodden peak
of Ruwenzorl (18320 feet). This he
