New York Letter by Lucy Jeanne Price
NEW YORK, April 8.—There is still adventure of the old-time sort in the search for precious stones. It doesn't all take place in the market places of the world. Three young Americans have just set forth from New York harbor on such a journey, difficult enough to satisfy the writers and readers...of the Jules Verne period. Diamonds in British Guiana are the object of the search, and they believe they will find whole big deposits of them on the side of the Sierra Pacaraima mountains, (wherever they may be!) William J. LaVarre, a recent Harvard graduate, is the head of the party an dwith him are James MacDonald, of Lima Ohio, and Dudley Lewis, of Springfield, Mass. At Georgetown, the capital of Brittai: Guiana, they will board a canoe house boat, and begin a long journey up the Esquibo river, going far beyond the white men's region. The district they are headed for has been known for yetts as a rich diamond field, but the difficulty of reaching it and the prevalence of tropical diseases has discouraged prospecting.
The Goddess of Liberty had a right to hold her torch a bit higher than ever the other day when the steamer Princess Matolika sailed out thru New York harbor; not in celebration of any new liberty, but in pride at one more commercial triumph. For on board the steamer was American-made spaghetti, bound for Naples! For consumption in that land of blue skies and spaghetti! Fifty tons of it were sent in this first consignment and it is held at the National Art club gallery, under the auspices of the Art Directors' club of New York. Could Justification of the works of commerce go farther?
There are times even in the lives of lawnmakers when their feelings become so deep that they are unable to be expressed except in terms of ironic jest. Such a moment finally came to Assemblyman Frederick L. Hackenburg, of this city; and the following provisions were included in an amendment to the penal law which he introduced: "It shall be illegal to bet on races between voting machines and steam rollers, flying squirrels, and Plute monkeys, and other members of the animal kingdom or products of the brain of inventors." Mr. Hackenburg's measure was the result of a peeve at the blue jaw advocates.
The "devil box" has finally edged into Chinatown. Never until very recently, would even the most shy and retiring camera be allowed to pass unmolested thru the streets of any Chinese quarter in the country, and never until last week was such a thing as a photographic studio ever established in New York's Chinatown. But now it's there, boldly opened and conducted under the euphonic name of Jun Jun Inc.

The Goddess of Liberty had a right to hold her torch a bit higher than ever the other day when the steamer Princess Matolika sailed out thru New York harbor; not in celebration of any new liberty, but in pride at one more commercial triumph. For on board the steamer was American-made spaghetti, bound for Naples! For consumption in that land of blue skies and spaghetti! Fifty tons of it were sent in this first consignment. The explanation seems to be that returned Italianes have taken samples of the American-made home-food with them and trained their own people to like it particularly well. So even the immigrants who leave us, taking American dollars with them, do us some good.
It's a sufficiently hard fate nowadays even to have any Russian rubles on hand, if one has to remember having paid real money, for them. But to be fined for trying to sell 1000 of them for $3 seems harsh, indeed. That's what happened to George Schwide. He was peddling them up and down Delancy-st, when the police grabbed him. They were perfectly good ruble, as rubles go, and he explained to the magistrate that he tho' it was legitimate to offer them at $3 a thousand considering the frequency with which affairs can change in Russia. But he was fined $5 just the same, and wasn't allowed to pay it with the 2,000,000 rubles which he still has.
Margaret Anglin has established something of a record for a star. She has taken for herself the part of "Cligmenestra" in her production of the Greek play, "Iphigenia," and it is NO the leading part. That she has given to a young New York actress, Miss Anglin gave an explanation to the startled reporters which said something about "suitability" but it sounds like a queer explanation.
The pictures that make you buy silk stockings or linen/collars have come to have authoritative recognition as real art. There is being held thru this month the first annual exhibition of current advertising art.
Queen Marie of Roumania is considerably more than the beauty of the royal ranks in Europe, according to Miss Anita Hodgskin, who has just returned from that country where she helped to establish the Roumanian division of the Y. W. C. A. The queen is a real worker in whatever she takes up, Miss Hodgskin declares, and not just an honorary committee head. The American Y. W. C. A. executive spent two years in Roumania, but she insists that she didn't "run" the Y. W. there. "I helped to organize it," she said, "and then the Roumanians ran it themselves, with only what direction from me any new organization would need. And no one did more than Queen Marie. Aside from her personal work, she turned over the palace grounds every Saturday to the girl reserves and assigned her lady-in-waiting to look after their needs. Her youngest daughter, Princess Tiano, 12 years old, was a tremendously enthusiastic member of the reserves and wants to be the head of it. The Y. W. is permanently established in Roumania now and has classes of the same sort we have here: typewriting and all. But the most popular course given is the one in English."
The Hon Sylvia Gough is the latest member of the English titled circle to make her debut on the professional stage. She has chosen for her medium the chorus of "The Right Girl," a new musical comedy Just opened here. The Hon Sylvia is the wife of Captain Wilfred Gough, son of Sir Sutley-Gough, and she is said into Chinatown. Never until very recently, would even the most shy and retiring camera be allowed to pass unmolested thru the streets of any Chinese quarter in the country, and never until last week was such a thing as a photographic studio ever established in New York's Chinatown. But now it's there, boldly opened and conducted under the euphonic name of Jun Jun Inc. Dr. Ma Soo, head of the New York branch of the Chinese National party, and his secretary patronized the shop on its opening day. After the ordeal of being pointed at by the "devil box" was safely under-gone by these men, a fair sized crowd of young and daring members of the colony followed suit.

"Have you any children?" Harry Sherman, 12 years old, asked a policeman who had just arrested him on a charge of stealing from a 5 and 10 cent store. When the policeman said, "Yes," Harry handed him two $20 bills and said, with a generous gesture, "Here, buy them some presents." Upon being asked the source of his wealth, he explained it was craps. So now he has two charges instead of one to answer before the children's court.
In spite of the cables and news reports it begins to seem as though the great war were actually over. Foreign mail steamboat service has just been re-established in New York bay and harbor after four years of discontinuance. The service transaporta and coastwise mail steamers from Quarantine to the North river pler, to expedite delivery. It was abolished April 21, 1917, "for the time of the war."

A statement by Secretary of Commerce Hoover that definite figures in this country's foreign trade for February would show that imports of goods already in large supply here weer increasing alarmingly has been followed by the announcement that the Republican members of the house ways and means committee and the senate finance committee, with the approval of President Harding, have agreed upon the passage of an emergency tariff bill as the first item on the legislative program of the special session of congress called for next month. Mr. Hoover sees indications that we inherit from the war are
