c CHARLOTTE DAILY OBSERVER, JANUARY 17, JD0& A GOWX FROM THE 6CXTAX. Interesting Tarn About a Beautiful Gown of Pure White Silk. Worn by , prominent Actress Sultan or Tur key Gave It (o Her. Ada Glenn, who plays the leading female role In Charles Klein's famous play, 'The JLUi ana me .noure, wears In the third act of the piece a gown of pure rhlte silk and of the 4inet texture, given nor oy in om tan of Turkey. Aide from, IU Intrin sic value Miss Glenn prises" this gown more than anything else in 'her pos session, .on account ' of the itrar.ge manner In which It came into her hands, W'Jien but a child of 10 years, Mlsi Glenn, with her parents and. a n.rtv of friends, spent more than two year in a trip around the "lobl eventually arriving at Constantinople While in Turkey the child and her party gained a private audience with the Sultan in his palace, a rare priv ilege and one extended to. few foreign ers. The Tuler of the great Eaatern empire seemed much infatuated with the child, and permitted her to as cend his throne. In rising to greet (he youn? victor the Sultan's foot slipped and he -would have fallen.!? the foot of the stairs had it not been for the agility of the little visitor, who put out her hands, thereby re storing theequilibrium of the mon arch. So pleased was the ruler with the child's nctlm that his offered her any thing ehe fan:l?l in the palace. He then took her to the wardrobe depart ment of the palace, and for several minutes the young -mis stared in mute wonder at the magnificent as sortment' of gowns before her eyes. JFlnally she splai a massive gown of -white silk and lace, with a train of several yards In length. 'OhrmisterTTsratMeirt, - exclaimed the girl. ' H is needless to say her wish wras granted. Thl gown which haJ pioh ably been worn for generation by the ladles of the court of Turkey, was of the primitive style of the times. It was only within the last five jears that Miss Gtenn, who has always carefully preserved this treasure, con sented to hav-3 ;t fashioned after the modern styles. And, Incidentally, "The Lion and the Mouse," is the enly play in which she has worn it. WILL KKAIIOAKD BE SOLD? Interesting Fact Dlsclottcd Yesterday hi immliMt lisuvcr.

When greeted by an Observer man. he talked with out restraint of the Issues to come' be fore the special session of the Legis lature, which will convene in Raleigh Tuesday. LjJo you think the Legislature will paCv a State prohibition taw?" the Senator was asked. . "I hone not," was the ready - re- SCpnse. "I think such action "would be extremely unwise, it may.be law-; ful, but I don't think it la exjsVlient. Besides it would be the wprvtaind of! politics. The law aa It stafewrho w js sufflcient,.lf the prohibitloMtg will only be patient. There is plenty pt law, if . it Is tracked by public senti ment. In cases wherethepubllc sen timent is not In favor of it, the Leg islature, according to my way of thinking, has no right to force it on the people. The present Legislature, .was not elected on that issue. It is being sprung without consulting the 'perph of the State, viewed even from that standpoint, It Is unwise. . , .1 "In the matter of the railway rate! controversy," the senator continued. I think the Legislature will ratify the compromise. This is about the same tiling that the Senate voted for last winter until the conference com mittee, changed it. I shall vote for It, because I think It is the equitable thing. If the- Senate vote had been Adopted, we would have had none of -thi-Htiga4 "The talk about the railroads, de fraying the expenses of the Legisla ture is preposterous. I have no idea the Governor ever contemplated such a thing. No elf-repectlng legislator to pay bU expenses. I think it likely that that was a wUJful mlsun- derstanJIng by enemies of the party.'

Faster progress has rarely been maJe on any Charlotte building than that on the magnificent Young Men Christian Association that is to.be, at a cost of f 100,000, and which' is rap Idly rising and taking unto itself visi ble form. The third story has ben reached and the windows of that sec tion are now being put In. It Is ap parent to the eye of one who strolls through, with some knowledge of the plans, that this building is destined in no respect to disappoint expecta tions. Most of the ornamental work is as yet of course In embryo and doea not appear, but tne convsnience, the shapeliness, the ycommodlousness of Its appointment's, cannot fail to lm- i press. The offices, general and pri vate, are on the second floor, com municating directly with the reception hall to the . east, wherein will be a large fireplace, . the reading room' to the southeast, the ladies' parlors to the south and the gymnasium to the west. Above the gymnasium, holding the roof, will be placed, six huge steel girders, weighing each 12,000 pounds. All ahntra t Vi a uiAn mtnw rKa tYtirA alid jourth, will be devoted, wlth few exceptions,, to dormitories, which win be in much demand by the young men of the city who have no homes in Charlotte.
