HAIL! SPRING.

SHE IS DUE IN NEWARK TONIGHT.

One of the queerest magazines in the world is The Equinox, which is published in Paris and London twice a year, at the vernal and autumnal equinoxes. The spring number, to be issued today, will have a new editor, Mrs. Solomon Sturges [Mary d'Este-Sturges], the wife of a Chicago banker, who now resides in the French capital. She recently accepted the editorial post in collaboration with the English poet, Alister [sic] Crowley. Mrs. Sturges recently gained some notoriety through the attempt of a landlord to evict her from her residence, on the ground that she wore costumes that were too scanty. Mrs. Sturges is a convert to Raymond Duncan’s Hellenistic sartorial creed, and wears only sandals and a Greek tunic held on her shoulders by a safety pin.
