The employment of women in the running of elevators is making some headway in certain cities. But it ought not to gain a foot hold generally. It is not a sort of occupation in which one sex should come in competition with the other, at least in this country. In varie-ous parts of the Old World female drudges are yoked on farms with the beasts of the field. America would regard such a degradation of woman hood with unbounded scora and loathing; and in the guidance of elevators women are out of place.

J. Pierpont Morgan says he has no personal property to pay taxes on, as his debts exceed his assets. This is sad. We had always supposed that Mr. Morgan was comfortably fixed by this time.

Joseph Taylor claims that he was out raged by the county attorney in his trial against John Sholl and he also claims that Judge Donoho was unfair in his ruling in the case. We certainly hope that there is no foundation for such statements.

Fewer Children.
The best calculation that can be made shows that the average number of children to the white native family a century ago in the United States was more than six; in 1830 it had fallen to less than five; in 1860 to less than four; in 1872 to less than three; in 1900, among the "upper classes" in Boston, to less than two.
A Tired Congregation.

Eugene E. Lario, of 751 Twentieth Avenue, ticket seller in the Union Station, Denver, Col., says: "You are at liberty to repeat what I first stated through our Denver papers about Doan's Kidney Pills in the summer of 1899, for I have had no reason in the interim to change my opinion of the remedy. I said when first interviewed that if I had a friend and ac-
quaintance suffering from backache or kidney trouble I would unhesitatingly advise them to take Doan's Kidney Pills. I was subject to severe attacks of backache, always aggravated if I sat long at a desk. It struck me that if Doan's Kidney Pills performed half what they promised they might at least help. This induced me to try the remedy. It absolutely stopped the backache. I have never had a pain or a twinge since."
A FREE TRIAL of this great kidney medicine which cured Mr. Lario will be mailed to any part of the United States on application. Address koster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. For sale by all druggists. Price 50 cents per box.

Farmers, stock-raisers, fruit-growers, truck gardeners, manfacturers, merchants and others seeking a new field of activity in a new home at the very end of the prices, can obtain reliable information concerning Southwestern Missouri, the Cherokee Northwest, New Nations in the Indian Territory, Western Arkansas, Eastern Texas, Northwestern Louisiana and the Coast country, and of the business opportunities offered therein.

We have noticed with amazement that the same kind of corset a fat woman wears to make her look thin, a thin woman puts on to make her appear fat.
Insist on Getting it.
Some grocers say they don't keep Defiance Starch. This is because they have a stock on hand of other brands containing only 12 oz. in a package, which they won't be able to sell first, because Defiance contains more. Do you want 16 oz. instead of 12 oz. for same money? Then buy Defiance Starch. Requires no cooking.
Cversensitive Japanese.
The Japanese race possess too sensitive a nervous system, which predisposes them to melancholy. Our people are more fond of tragedy than comedy in drama and novels. This state of things must be remedied, and the nervous system of our people must be better attended tq. Physical education demands, therefore, greater attention on the part of our students and educators.—Tokio Jijl.
Marie Corelli Is Shy.
One who has just returned from a delightful holiday spent in the Shakespeare country relates that the chief amusement of the natives of Stratford-on-Avon is watching the American pilgrim in his or her efforts to snapshot Miss Marie Corell. She invariably carries an umbrella or a parasol, which "goes up" the instant the authorhes spies a camera.
An Insuperable Objection.
Mark Twain tells of a man who, when he came home drunk, explained to his wife that his condition was due to the fact that he had mixed his drinks. "John," his wife advised, "when you have drunk all the whisky you want you ought to ask for sarsaparilla." "Yes," retorted her husband, "but when I have drunk all the whisky I want I can't say sarsaparilla."
To Put In a Glass Case.

Kansas Notes
August Hohn of Marysville is one of the fifteen "Hons." appointed as delegates to the Farmers' International congress, to be held at Niagara Falls. Oil was struck in the southeast part of Coffey county this week. It is not flowing in prodigious quantities, but enough to place Coffey county in the "oil belt." George T. Anthony once said that the drug business was the only industry in Kansas whose profits exceeded the gross receipts. But that was before the Coal trust was organized. Naturally the state officers are alarmed to find that explosives are stored in the basement of the state house, though there is hardly a state officer who has not had a fire kindle under him.
Pupils of the 174 schools in Kansas which are closed because no teachers are available will be glad—or ought to be—that the cornerstone of the new State Normal school at Hays City was laid Friday.
Three inches of rain in one hour as Pratt this week, which caused the Ninescah river to overflow, has brought the term "cloudburst" back into use, although it is used much more conservatively than it was last spring.
Emporia's coal famine is really alarming, as no coal can be obtained to run the water works. Yet Osage county, which adjoins Lyon on the east, is one of the richest coal regions in the West, and could easily supply the entire state with fuel.
Parson Frederick's, a negro preacher in Atchison, was asked recently how much money he took in last Sunday. He replied that the total amount to $1.80. "Isn't that amount pretty small for preaching twice?" he was asked. "Well, I'll tell you," he replied, "it was mighty poor preaching."
An Eastern Kansas paper thinks Prince Albert is the name of the house that is demolishing all the harness records.
A Neosho county man who is boring for "general results," says he hopes to strike oil or gas, but will be satisfied with gasoline.
A number of the ablest and most fluent "open letter" writers in Ottawa are discussing the servant girl question at much length.
Fort Scott's troubles have commenced. It voted $125,000 for the municipal ownership of water works and the litigation is about to begin. It is only fair to Wichita to explain that Crescue was engaged at a princely salary as a fair attraction several months before he became a back number. Lawrence has fifty citizens whose weakin exceeds $50,000 each, thus proving the error of the assumption that Mr. Bowersock had all of the real and personal property of that town cornered. According to Billy Morgan the feeling between Bulgaria and Turkey can only be understood by those who understand the feeling which exists between Garden City and Dodge City. The suits against the Coal trust appear to have been dropped as abruptly as they were begun.
An Illinois man has arisen to dispute Colonel D. R. Anthony's title as dean of the newspaper profession in the United States. Colonel Anthony has been the editor and publisher of a newspaper continuously for more than fifty years. William Osman, of the Ottawa, Ill. Free Trader, is the claimant, and he was discovered by William E. Curtis, the Chicago correspondent. Mr. Osman is 84 and has been the editor of the Free Trader almost continuously since the first of August, 1840, a period of more than sixty-three years. Even now he goes to the office daily and does his full share of the work.
During the month of September the Kansas wind blew a total of 7,454 miles, according to Dr. Snow's observations. This is 2.348 miles below normal. The average wind was a fraction over ten miles an hour. 2
Another deplorable feature of the open gambling in Kansas City, Kansas, is that it is the home of J. K. Cubbison, the author of the law of 1895 which makes gambling felony in Kansas.
The silt deposited by the flood has greatly enriched the land in the Kaw valley and the tributary valleys. Nevertheless, the farmers much prefer to buy less violent fertilizers and pay for them.
The newest style in writing paper, which comes in sheets about a foot long and three inches wide, has reached Fredonia, and John Gilmore says: "It is now possible to write a long letter with few words."
Sheriff Roodhouse of Fort Scott is entitled to three cheers. He received an anonymous letter confiding to him the present whereabouts of the Bender family, which he promptly consigned to the waste basket.
Superintendent Dayhoff estimates that 174 schools in Kansas are closed because there are no teachers available. Either the Normal schools should increase their output or the new truancy law will became a dead letter. Since 1900 there has been a gain of 106 in the number of state banks. During that time there have been only three failures. But twenty-one banks have gone into voluntary liquidation because they were full of money and nobody wanted to borrow.
WORN OUT, DRAGGED OUT.

—Pe-ru-na is a Tonic of
Efficiency.
Mrs. Tressie Nelson.
JOSEPHINE MORRIS, 236 Carroll St., Brooklyn, N. Y., writes:
"Peruna is a fine medicine to take any time of the year, but I have found it especially helpful to withstand the wear and tear of the hot weather. I have taken it now for two summers and feel that it has kept my system free from malaria, and also kept me from having that worn-out, dragged out look which so many women have.
"I therefore have no hesitancy in saying that I think it is the finest tonic in the world."—Josephine Morris.
Peruna is frequently used as a mitigation of the effects of hot weather. What a bath is to the skin, Peruna is to the mucous membranes. Bathing keeps the skin healthy. Peruna makes the mucous membranes clean and healthy. With the skin and mucous membranes in good working order, hot weather can be withstood with very little suffering.
Frequent bathing with an occasional use of Peruna is sure to mitigate the horrors of

England's First Bob-Tailed Car
A novel style of tramcar has just been introduced at Southport, says an English paper. It is known as the "one-man" car, and is believed to be the only one of its kind in England. The car, which is of neat construction, can be worked by one man, the driver, who will be in a position by which he will be able to take payment, and give tickets, the services of a conductor thus being dispensed with.
Forests in Germany.
In the official count of 1000 the area covered by forests in Germany aggregated 34,988,672 acres, of which 17,443,188 acres belonged to the states and municipalities. These, as also the woodlands of private individuals, are kept in a high state of scientific cultivation, as the preservation of forests is considered to be a matter of great importance for economic and hygienic reasons.
Successful Novels.
It is stated that nine of the most successful of modern novels aggregated a sale of over 1,600,000 copies. The paper on which these books were printed was made of wood fiber—cellulose—and the Pawtucket Gazette figures out that it required about 4,000 trees to furnish this paper.
He Knew the Blouse.
He (as they were seated in a quiet nook near the links)—“Are you quite sure we never met before this season?” She—“Yes; quite positive.” He—“And you haven’t-a sister?” She—No; why do you ask?” He—“Well, I am positive I hugged that blouse before, somewhere.”
Plan to Extend British Trade.
A British expedition has been sent to explore Hudson bay for the purpose of determining whether a new grain route is practicable. The plan is to ship grain from the western portion of Canada, to be stored in elevators on Hudson bay, and shipped by water during the brief summer season in which navigation is open.
By the census of 1900 Chicago was shown to rank second as a manufacturing center among United States cities (New York being first) in number of establishments, 19,203; amount of capital, $534,000,000; average number of wage earners 261,621; wages in the census year, $131,056,337, and gross value of products, $888,945,311.

This is why Peruna is so popular with them. Peruna provides clean mucous membranes, and the clean mucous membranes do the rest.

these two officers, General S. B. M.
Young, chief of staff, issued the fol-
lowing statement:
“With a view to enable Major Gen-
eral Chaffee to become familiar with
the duties. vested by law in the chiet
of staff and to ascertain the present
condition of the military establish-
ment before entering upon their act-
ive performance, the president has
directed that he be ordered to duty
fn the war department as assistant
to the chief of staff, and that Major
General Corbin be assigned to com-
mand the department of the East.
This assignment, which is in accord
ance with the wishes of General Cor-
bin, 1s intended as a recognition of
the eminent services rendered by him
in the important office of adjutant
general during the war with Spain
and the subsequent operations in
China and the Philippines, and is
made with a view to obtaining the
benefit of his great administrative
and executive ability in command of
the largest and most important mill-
tary department of the United States.
Advantage will be taken of the as-
signment to secure the close har-
monious and intelligent co-operation
of officers and troops in carrying into
effect the new methods of administra-
tion whith have been made necessary
by the establishment of the general
staff.”
‘The announcement that General
Corbin has been assigned to com-
mand the department of the East
has a greater significance than ap-
pears through the medium of the care-
fully worded official statement. It
means an end to the powerful in-
fluence exercised by General Corbin
as adjutant general of the army and
the curtailment of the vast power
that enabled him to carry on a
faintly disguised fend with the com-
mander of the army, General Miles,
during an international war, in which
the latter was made to assume an im-
portance little" less than humiliating.
The one standing reproach against
General Corbin has been that he never
commanded troops, while directing
and detailing officers who had won
their rank by actual fighting, He ts
now placed in a position to offset
this criticism by commanding the
largest military department in the
United States and superintending the
erectioh and extension of the greatest
coast defense ever undertaken by the
government. On the surface he {s
made to appear as greatly pleased
with the disposition made of him, and
‘any statement to the contrary would
be promptly denied from all quarters
with authority to speak. Ever since
the organization of the general staff,
however, in which General Corbin was
made to give way to General Young
as chief of staff, he has been com-
pelled to relinquish his grip on tne
power that made him the most con-
spicuous soldier in the country. He
left suddenly for a tour of inspection
of the Western posts, and his office in
the war department has been turned
‘over to General Young, under whose
direction he will command his de-
partment, as other department com-
manders, fntil next year, when Gen-
eral Young retires and the scramble
for the appointment of chief of staff
will doubtless be renewed.

TO RAISE $200,000,000 FUND,
Uplifting ‘of the Race.
NEW YORK.—(Special.) The com-
mercial American negro national con-
vention, which opened on Thursday in
Brooklyn, closed Friday. It was de-
cided to name the new organization
‘which had been effected the American
‘Negro Co-Operative and Industrial As-
sociation. The convention decided to
raise a fund of $200,000,000 to aid ne-
groes in this country. On the sugges-
tion of the committee, it was declared
that 10,000,000 negroes in the United
States might be taxed 41 cents a
month, which would create a fund of
‘$50,000,000 in one year, or $20,000,000
in four years, ,
The interest on this sum at 4 per
cent, $8,000,000 a year, could be used
for the establishment of factories,
benking institutions, the purchase of
valuable stocks and the organization
of other business enterprises for the
benefit of the race.
A national board of supervisors, one
to be chosen from each state and to
have control and distribution of the
fund, was advised.

Hackley Were Blown Away Before
She Capsized—Steamer Finally
Listed and Sank Like a Stone.
slARINETTE, WIS.—(Special.) Dur-
ing a squall Sunday night on Lake
Michigan, the steamer Eric L. Hack-

‘The, Hackley was struck py the
‘squall’ when seven miles oft Green
island. The upper work was blown
away before the men could reach a
haven. ‘he boat then turned over and
went down in deep water.
As the Hackley went to the bottom,
those who would and could seized on
floating pieces of wreckage, while the
women and three or four of the men
falling to find any object to which to
cling, sank in the raging sea, so far as
4s known,
‘The waves were rolling high and
seversl of those who at first saved
themselves from immediate death, lost
strength and sank. It was more taan
an hour ofter the Hackley sank before
the Sheboygan hove within hailing
distance. The shouts of the floating
mem attracted the attention of the
sailors on the Sheboygan and every
assistance was lent.
Some of the persons who were res-
ued say that it is possible that one or
more of the eleven may have escaped
@eath. This view is not given much
credence by the sailors of the Sheboy-
wan.
‘The Sheboygan made into Fish creek
when hope of. rescuing other persons
seemed impossible. The rescued per-
pons were 80 exhausted from their
struggle against drowning that they
were unable for some time to tell
anything about the wreck.
‘The persons saved by the Sheboygan

upper work, all persons aboard the
Hackley ran on deck. Hasty prepar-
ations for a plunge into the water were
