Miss Dessie Mclntyre. 18 years old. was Jilted two weeks ago by Harry Pen dleton, a well known young business man, with whom she had kept com pany for two years. He told her he had become engaged to another girl. This other girl proved to be Miss Henrietta Aiken, of Bridgeport, O.. just across the river from this city. Although falling to understand her request. Miss Mclntyre'g parents gave her permission to have her hair cut off. Then she donned a suit of her brother's clothing, vis ted Bridgeport, and through a friend met Miss Aiken. , I It was a case of love at first sight on the part of the Bridgeport girl. Miss Mclntyre. who was mas querading as "Lawrence Dressing,"; WSil a devnferf fiiiltnr si ml .vnr night found "Lawrence" at the AI-! ken home. Last Sunday night while "Law rence" and Miss Aiken were sitting on the front porch of the latter's home, Pendleton appeared and de manded to know why another had usurped his place. Spurred on by her new - found suitor. Miss Aiken angrily dismissed Pendleton and or dered him never to see her again She then confessed her love for "Lawrence." Last night Miss Mclntyre, dress ed In a gown of the latest mode, met Miss Aiken on Market street. this city. The recognition was mu tual. Before Miss Aiken could speak.

How the IVesident Gets Paid. Pathfinder. The question Is often asked, how the President gets his salary wnexner be goes to the Treasury at tne end or each working day and draws his 240-odd dollars, or wheth er he waits till the end of the week. month or term for his money. The answer is that he does get his pay directly from the Treasury, and he is the only Government official who is thus paid. And his pay-days are once a month on the last working day of the month. President Wil son had to wait till March 31 for his first taste of Uncle Sam's mon ey. Then he got an "accountable warrant" for 15,625. This was figured to cover the portion of the whole month begin nlng with March 4, counting the month as thirty days. Actually he aid not take office till after noon of the 4th, and President Taft held down the job till that hour. But this was by a fiction. The Admin titration Is supposed to end with midnight of March 3, but it would be inconvenient to transfer the Gov ernment at such a time and so the change Is made 12 hours later. No fractions of days are recognized. however, In paying Presidents, and the half-day President Taft. did not get paid for on March 4 was made up by the extra half day he was paid for at the beginning of his term President Wilson's monthly war rants hereafter will be (i,250, or just one-twelfth of his full yearly salary of $75,000. Senator. Uepre' sentative and other Government of ficials are paid by a slightly differ ent system. The Vlce-Prelsdent Is paid by the Secretary of the Senate who also pays the Senators and Son- ate employees. His salary is $12, 000, but he does not get just an even thousand a month. The an nual salary is first divided into four parts of $3,000 each, for each quarter year. . The quarterly amount is then again divided up into month ly parts, according to the actual number of calendar days In that quarter. By a singular custom which was started in Washington's time and which for some reasons has never been changed, the President Is paid by what Is called an "accountable warrant." That Is he Is allowed to draw his money each month, but he is not credited with his services un til the end of his term. t is non proposed to change this and pay him by a "settlement warrant." at the end of each month.
