The voy-age, on the steamboat Boston, started from Havre and continued up the Greet Lakes from Buffalo in an-other boat, was one of hazard and worry. John Ton and Agnes Van der Syde plighted their troth during the voyage and became the first settlers of the enormous Ton family, which held Its twenty-eight- h reunion at Thornton forest preserve the other day. John and Agnes bought a large tract of what Is now Rosedale, on One Hun-dred Third street fhey decided It was a good locality, according to their daughter, the family historian, Mrs. F. W. Jansen, who still resides at the old homestead, 816 West One Hundred Third street They wrote glowing re-port to John's brothers and sisters In Holland, and seven of them came over o try their luck In the thriving village of Chicago. The nine original Tons who settled In Chicago had an average of ten chil-dren each. There were approximately 700 Tons at the Chicago reunion. Sixty-si- x Tons live in Los Angeles. They also held a reunion. According to the by-la- of the Ton family, which was Incorporated in 1911, fifty or more settling elsewhere than Chicago are en-titled to hold a reunion. Twenty-tw- o Tons in Holland sent greetings by mail. They are the only Tons there, accord-ing to Mrs. Jansen. ; To remain In good standing all mem-bers must report births, deaths and marriages to the historian. Only one misunderstanding has oc-curred in the family since John and Agnes bought the land around Rose-lan- d. That was when two of the fam-ily went into politics. It was like this, according to re-ports : Alderman Guy Madderora de-cided to run again In the Ninth ward, which Is Rosedale, the last city elec-tion. His family descended from Tryntje Ton. He got the support of many Tons. Then Albert Ton decided to run. Other Tons, supported him. Both were defeated, but two or three aren't on speaking terms yet. The family traveling farthest to at-tend were Mrs. C. Ton of New Orleans and her son, Burroughs, seventeen, nd daughter, Cornelia, nine. They drove to Chicago. They are of the family of C. J. Ton, who started the reunions. How Chief Nabob Runs Missouri Town LOUIS. Dubbed Chief Nabob ST. a tramp he arrested several ago, Jack O.

Americans are NEW travelers, not only by but by train Hnd boat. The outpouring from a big city for a summer week-en- d Is an astonishing spectacle; especially when a holiday falls on Friday or Monday. A New York newspaper has checked up and analyzed the exodus by train and boat from Gotham for the week-end Including Labor day, and found some Interesting things: Figures from railroad and steamship officials Indicated that over 600,000 per-sons left New York city, bound for sea-shore, mountain and country resorts. The rush, which began Flrday, was continuous and all trains leaving up to early Sunday morning were packed. Accommodation! were Impossible to obtain unless they had been engaged In advance, and nearly every through train which pulled out was run In two or more sections. Some of them had as many as four. The heaviest travel over the Pennsyl-vania system was to Atlantic City, Long Branch, Asbury Park and the other New Jersey coast resorts. All of the trains bound for Philadelphia were crowded and the rush to Atlantic City was biggest of all. The greater proportion of those who left town on the New York Central lines was bound for the Adlrondacks and the Catskllls. Hotel proprietors re-ported that their accommodations were engoged to the limit This condition also prevailed all over Long Island and at the various watering places along Long Island sound. The Bar Harbor express left In two sections, each one completely filled. The travel to Maine resorts was even heavier than on Friday night, when the greatest rush hitherto known this sea-son wes experienced. The Wlilte Moun-tains also drew their quota, and all trains bound for Canadian and West-ern points were crowded to capacity. The various steamship lines to Bos-ton, Sound ports and up the Hudson had more passengers than they could accommodate and scores of applicants for staterooms were turned away. The peak of travel came with the home-comin- g crowds Monday night. Whereas the outgoing throngs had been distributed over two days, fully 85 per cent of them sought to return between 4 p. m. and midnight Sunday. Add to this travel the thousands who motored and the totals are Impressive. Other big cities reported the same thing. It would be Interesting to know how many millions the outing cost. Little Suzanne Doesn't Like Models YOUX. Little Suznnne NEW Jealous, AIho she is She had been living with her husband, Hudolph Snden, a German artlnt. In Greenwich Village 19 Barrow street. Long nco rsdal lines hsl been obliterated by the mutual love of Little Suzanne and Ru-dolph, her talented husband. I Hiring th war they agreed that for them there was neither Germany mr France, but Just Kudolph and Suzanne. Kudolph Suden does nudes. He em-ploys, occasionally, beautiful girl mod-al to pose for his Inspired bmali. Now Suzanne herself 1$ beautiful, but nlie Is not a iiiodt-l- . Sometimes she sulked a little after tier husband bad shooed the beautiful model out of the studio door. And on such occasions Xuden would rally tier with guy banter.

Anyway, there was, on the shelf In the closet of the bathroom, a bottle of bichloride of mercury tablets. Quick-ly she swallowed them and staggered out that she might die at the sill of the door through which Hudolph must enter. Suddenly It came to her that It might all be a mistake. There was milk In the Icebox nnd Suzanne had been a Ked Cross nurse In the war. So she drank the milk nnd ran to the apart-ment of neighbors the Hlchard O'NVIls who called Hudolph Sudeti In. The ambulance took her to Hellevue hos-pital .lust In time. The doctori have nved her life. ".My wife," explained Kudolph Suden, "has been In n frightfully nervous ('on- - dltloii siM-- she was shell shocked.

I Y) every man on Easy street ha r j tn easy mind. v'" It requires no agricultural knowledge . .' to cultivate expensive tastes. Don't court trouble unless you want to find yourself married to it . Luck has a perverse habit of favor-ta- g those who don't depend on It People who keep their troubles t themselves also keep their friends. It Is never any trouble to discover arguments In favor of what you want to do. A fellow has to be something of a sprinter to keep up with his good In-tentions. Success discovers the mistakes of yesterday and corrects them in the work of today.
