Reeks Vengence in Negro Business District Destroying much Property. Judge Judge J. W. Swayne Instructs body to Investigate and Act. VOL. XIX. Grand J Indict Mob failed in Attempt to Lynch N in Negro Business District Des Judge J. W. Swayne Instruct Ft. Worth, Texas was the scene of much blood shed last week when Tom Lee killed two Negroes, one policeman and two other white men and then attempted suicide but at this writing is still living with a chance to recover. On account of the heavy guard a mob failed in its attempt to take him from the jail. Failing in this effort, the mob went to the Negro business district and demolished it, the saloons suffering most, as all the wines, whiskey and cigars were carried away. Grocery stores, restaurants, barber shops, tailor shops, pool halls, undertaking establishments, and the Negro bank in the Masonic Temple were all demolished, the damage totals to about $15,000.00. The leading white citizens are very much wrought, up over the affair and at a mass meeting condemned it in most bitter terms. Judge Swayne whose reputation has long since been established as an unbiased judge, instructed the grand jury as follows: Judge Swayne instructed that indictments be returned against the offenders for unlawful assembly and rioting. The Grand Jury was taken in a body to view the ruins of the stores, saloons, shops and other buildings. The Court's charge was as follows: "I was before you this morning and at that time asked you to return a bill of indictment as quickly as possible against Tommie Lee, the Negro who did the killing yesterday, and I am very much obliged to you for acting promptly in the matter. You have just returned a bill of indictment against him. "This is as it should be. The Grand Juries of the country and the courts of the country in murder cases should act promptly. There has always been too much delay. It has been my rule and practice since I have been District Judge to never let a criminal case lag, and especially a murder case. I try them quickly, whether high or low. The constitution guarantees them a speedy trial and it also guarantees society a speedy trial. That is my interpretation of the Constitution. "Now, gentlemen, I have sent for you for another purpose. Since I was before you this morning privately some very estimable cit- izens have called my attention to the outrageous conduct of the mob on Ninth street against some of our respectable Negro population. It was my lot to be one of the officials present at the jail last night when the mob attempted to take it. You know I charged you a few days ago about some outrageous conduct that had been committed by people in high places, I charged you then that no man was too high when he did wrong. I charge you now that no man is so low that his conduct should not be investigated when he is a violator of the laws of this State. "Those who composed the mob cannot say that they were not there for unlawful purposes, because, as the law directs, it became my duty as one of the Magistrates of this State to call upon them to disperse and tell them what the law is, and I did this in no uncertain terms; and after they failed to disperse each and every one of them was guilty of the conduct of the other, whether he participated in it or not. "Their conduct at the jail and their conduct against the respectable Negroes on Ninth street was absolutely indefensible. Some of the Negroes who were damaged own their own property; some of them have been good citizens ever since they have lived here and at all times have tried with all their power to encourage the enforcement of the law among their race. "The police officers notified the Negroes on Ninth street that there might be some trouble and requested them to close their doors at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon. They complied with the request and left their property there without any protection save by the officials of the city of Ft. Worth. Imagine their feelings when they came back this morning and saw thousands and thousands of dollars' worth of property destroyed in such a ruthless manner! "Gentlemen, Investigate it! Investigate it thoroughly! It matters not who is guilty, return return a bill against them. Each and every man that was in that mob at the jail or on East Ninth street is guilty of an unlawful assembly and guilty of riot. "Return bills against all who were in mob.

STATE'S RIGHTS AND RACE PREJUDICE When a nation once becomes possessed of a false theory it is difficult to teach it the error of the falsehood. It is the same way with an individual who, going wrong in a given thing, transmits it to his posterity as a running issue, which, when the posterity is numerous enough, may rise up as one man and shake a continent. State's rights is one of the theories that has troubled this nation from the foundation. As often as it has appeared it has been crushed, as in the Dorr Rebellion in Rhode Island, the nullification doctrine in South Carolina and the right of secession in the whole South in 1860, in the shadows of which the nation still stands in a vast volume of its national debt and its enormous pension grants to the veterans and their heirs. The slaveholders' war should have settled for all time the question involved in the constitutional affirmation that "the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved States respectively, or to the people," but it did not do so. The States still usup rights delegated to the United States, such as the regulation of the times and places of election and the making and unmaking of citizens; discriminations of many sorts as between citizens and citizens of the same State and of other States, such as "Jim Crow" laws in travel and accommodation in the schools, in marriage and divorce, and the like. Laws between citizens of the same State should be uniform, working hardship on neither party concerned, and a contract valid in every State. So it is with citizenship and suffrage. The United States only has power to say who are and shall be citizens and have the right of the franchise; and yet, in all of these vital matters the States claim and exercise the right to do about them as they please, with conflict and confusion as the results. During the past four weeks the nation has been a quiver of excited expectation over the determination of the Legislature of California to enact an alien land law aimed directly at the Japanese and in violation of certain treaty laws existing between the United States and Japan. The Constitution declares that "all treaties made, or which shall be made, un- der the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land." The right of California, therefore, to enact any law that will violate the treaty law with Japan, or to do any act to disturb the good relations existing between a friendly power and the United States does not exist. Diplomatically, Japan does not recognize California at all; it recognizes the whole United States in their State Department as the nation. And yet President Wilson has acknowledged the right of California to enact an alien law aimed at the Japanese and in violation of treaty obligations, where no such rights exists, and sent Secretary of State Bryan to Sacramento to reason with the headstrong Legislature, but all in vain. The Californians frankly and brutally admit that race prejudice is at the bottom of their opposition to the Japanese now, as it was the case of the Chinese thirty years ago. They will not be crowded by the little brown men, they say; the white man cannot compete with the Japanese in driving a bargain, in doing the same amount of work for the same money, and in putting some of his earnings in the bank or farm lands instead of all of it on his back and in his stomach, as white men do, they admit. The Russians make the same plea in the case of the Jews. The South makes the same plea in the case of the Negro in denying him by law and public opinion an equal chance in the race of life. It is the plea of the coward and the incompetent, who places the baby act between him and those he fears to compete with, proclaiming all of the time a superiority and self-sufficiency which the facts disprove. The Japanese have insisted upon their treaty rights, and shown a fighting disposition not at all comforting to the haughty pride of the United States. The white man is putting his race prejudice bluff forward everywhere, and the Japanese are the first off-color people to call his hand. As time moves along his slow and serpentine way we shall see what we shall see as to the right the white races claim to trample at their pleasure upon the rights and feelings of the black and colored races.—New York Age.

New York, April 23. A lifetime of hard work at scrubbing, washing and ironing netted Mrs. Matilda Wyne, of Oyster Bay, L. I., colored, $50,000. She left that sum by will to her husband, seven Washington--After a six weeks" "hike" from his home in Mississippi, William Geogory, a former Negro servant of Senator Vardaman, limped footsore and travelstained into the capital in search of a job. He got it. He goes to work today as a porter in the Senate office building, for Senator Vardaman believed the display of grit made by Gregory in search of office deserves to be rewarded. "I'm glad William is here," said the Senator today, "for he will prove an example to the members of his race." He added that his old employee "never would take a seat in a street car while a woman was standing." Chicago, Ill., May 6.—Maj. R. R. Jackson, who ran on the Republican ticket last November for State Senator to represent the Third Senatorial District, has been seated on a recount. He was counted out in November, and the recount shows that he received more votes than any of the other contestants. Maj. Jackson received 10,166 votes, William Ostrum, the other Republican, 9,566, and Henry M. Ashton, Democrat, who has been unseated 9,602. The figures of the first count were: Ashton, 9,566; Ostrum, 9,498; Jackson, 9,059. The recount was instigated by Ostrum, and the election of Maj. Jackson came as a big surprise to many. Tokio, May 17.—That God made the white and colored races equal and that if Japanese do not assert their rights to equality in America as well as elsewhere in the world, they will fall short of fulfilling God's purpose was the sense of an unusual mass meening held today for the discussion of the California alien land bill. The speakers were students, business men and a few members of parliament. The gathering was not of an official nature. Quiet and dignity marked the assembly and nothing in the NO 38 nature of inflammatory speech was heard. The majority of the speakers said they were confident that the American people as a whole would deal justly with the Japanese and that not the slightest possibility of war between the nations existed. New York, April 23.—A lifetime of hard work at scrubbing, washing and ironing netted Mrs. Matilda Wyne, of Oyster Bay, L. I., colored, $50,000. She left that sum by will to her husband, seven nephews and three nieces, according to a transfer tax appraisal filed today in Mineola, the seat of Nassua county. Exerybody in Oyster Bay knew her. Her maiden name was Matilda Hopkins, and the townpeople continued to call her Matilda Hopkins after she married John Wynn, a few years ago. It was generally known that she was comfortably fixed, but nobody dreamed that she had accummulafed more than a few hundred dollars. STILL LETTING OUT NEGRO OFFICEHOLDERS Washington. D. C., April 30. President Wilson and his cabinet broke their own record last week for removing Negroes from office. Both Hon. Joseph Lee of Florida, and Hon. Ralph W. Tyler, the Auditor for the Navy Department, were ousted. In each case a white man was designated to take the place vacated. Thus far there seems to be no intention whatever of the President and his cabinet to appoint colored men to fill positions formerly held by Negroes under the Republican administration. The graditude of the Democratic party toward the Negro who voted the Democratic ticket is being exhibited now nearly every day in nation's capitol in the foregoing manner. News reaches Washington from Atlanta that even the Negro messengers who hitherto delivered the special delivery letters and packages in the city of Atlanta are to be replaced by white messengers It is said that Messrs Carr and Morton of the United Colored Democracy of New York, visited President Wilson last week and urged the appointment of a New Yorker to the Liberian post, made vacant by the resignation Fred R. Moore. Rumor has it that President Wilson informed his visitors that he did not intend to appoint any one to a diplomatic position who was an active applicant.

The American government having delivered its reply to the Japanese protest, is awaiting the next step of Japan. FOREIGN. There was a rumor that Orizaba, an important town on the Mexican railroad in the state of Vera Cruz, had been captured by the rebels.

HELD AS DYNAMITER BACON JAILED FOR BOMB THAT KILLED HIS WIFE. Cripple Creek, Colo., Ex-Legislator Is Also Blamed for Death of His Stepdaughter. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Western Newspaper Union News Service Cripple Creek.—James L. Bacon, mining man and former Colorado legislator, returning from Denver, where he attended the funerals of his wife, Ida, and his stepdaughter, Josephine Davidson, killed in an explosion which wrecked the Bacon home here April 28th, was arrested by Sheriff Von Phil on a charge of having placed the dynamite in the kitchen stove which resulted in the deaths of two and the injury to himself. Bacon had nothing to say when taken into custody, and accompanied the sheriff to prison, where he is being held without ball. He refused to talk with the sheriff until given an opportunity to consult with an attorney. The warrant for Bacon's arrest was sworn out secretly by the sheriff ten days ago, but it was not served says that official, until damaging evidence was gleaned through investigations and shadowing of Bacon. When Bacon went to Denver for the funerals of his wife and stepdaughter he was accompanied by two deputy sheriffs. The sheriff says that he bases the charge against Bacon on conflicting stories told by Bacon after his recovery, and on the statement of County Physician J. H. Hereford, who is reported to have said that Bacon was reigning unconsciousness at the hospital. One story Bacon told the sheriff was that he was in the house at the time of the explosion and the other was that he was just outside the door. Bacon is accused by the authorities of having caused the explosion which killed his wife and stepdaughter and injured him so that he spent several weeks in a hospital. The explosion was at first thought to have been accidental, resulting from an attempt to thaw dynamite in a kitchen stove oven. Later, Bacon recovered and gave his version of the affair, in which he declared his belief that enemies had blown up the house. To substantiate this, he told of having received threatening letters. The coroner's inquest failed to clear the mystery, a verdict of death as the result of an explosion, with cause unknown, being rendered. Boulder Woman Heiress. Boulder.—Mrs. T. C.

The personel of successful candidates is certainly such as to inspire confidence and faith anew in the new form of government with which we are experimenting. ‘The non-partisan results should quicken the realization of commis- sioners-eleet that party government has been abolished as completely in fact as theory. ‘‘Goyernment of the people, for the people and by the people’’—was the mandate of Denyer’s electorate on last Tuesday. Since the honesty, integrity and ability of none of the successful candidates ean be challenged, it seems only a question of proper real- ization of the great responsibility devolved upon them to make their administration a flattering suecess. The Colorado Statesman not only wishes the commissioners-elect all the suecess which they deserve, but will gladly lend its best efforts and influence to making their administration what the people desire that it shall be. SPRUCE UP! ‘The annual renovating time is drawing nigh. The local improve- ment societies have begun reminding citizens of their duties regarding the general appearance of town or city, and people who need no such admonitions, have already begun to paint, paper, whitewash and to clean out rmbbish from house and yard. - It is a good habit to get into, and one which, once acquired, needs no outside spur to make it per- manently effective, for it is self-satisfying and generally profitable. The value of a thing is enhanced by its neat appearance. A property rents better or sells quicker and for better price, if it is in its best shape. That tenant is most desirable who takes good care of his house and yard and whose serupulous cleanlinéss is always noticeable. He becomes a favorite with his landlord and an example to his neighbors. But above all, the health of himself and family is better guarded. A great deal of Sickness is traceable to sanitary neglect and dirt. Epi- demics generally have their start and growth in untidy home conditions. ‘The most ravaging diseases are those which breed in the homes of the poor and slothful. There is a widely mistaken notion that poverty is an exeuse for dirt. While water is accessible to every houscholder ond soap easily attainable, this exeuse is a makeshift. The grease and stains on your doors, windows and woodwork and the settled dust aud dirt on your shelves, curtains, ranges and house furnishings, are an indictment against your regard for your own health and welfare and against that of your neighbors. They cost you the respect of every person who steps into your house, and possibly of every person who passes and takes notice, unless he himself is a sloth. But tidiness and neatness in the appearance of one’s house attracts where dirt and neglect repel. ‘The most of us live by what we get to do for other peo- ple, and no matter what others may want to do, they take note of our personanl appearance and methods. ‘The man-of-all-work, with a tidy home, a bright, clean cart and a shifty appearance, gets more work and better pay than the ragged and dusty dirt purveyor who does not seem to care anything about his looks. And it is the same with the chore man, the ash man, the house man, the porter, the butler, the coachman, the waiter, the janitor, the yard man, the milk man, the cook, the barber, the painter and every other individual whose work brings him in touch with the person, the food or the property of others, The woman who works runs the same gauntlet and must bear even a severer test, for there is common convietion that a dirty woman is filthier and more abhorrent than a dirty man. Hither one is always repellant and the first and direct cause of his or her own failures. But it is easy to eure these evils if one will determine to exercise care and judgment and to have regard for those conditions and convictions which must dominate domesticity and business alike among respectable people. Clean up both house and person, ng matter how poor you are! Regions Still. Unexplored. The mighty mass of the Himalayas, the loftiest of all mountains, “the roof of the world,” has not been penetrated to its center.

He won't loaf anywhere but in the National bank, and actually struts while he is sitting ‘down.”—Judge. His Way. lowing report was published in a Havre (France) newspaper, which pub- lished a list of 107 persons ($4 men and 23 women) employed in this city and its vicinity to whom silver medals of honor haye been awarded by decree of the minister of commerce and industry of France, for faith- ful service of thirty years in the same industrial establishment or busi- ness house. In this list are included superintendents, managers, dock fore- men, accountants, clerks, weavers, spinners, tailors, dressmakers, tramway conductors, masons, cabinetmakers, boilermakers, stokers, laborers, ete. The medal of honor for employes and workmen was established in France by the decree of July 16, 1886, which authorized the minister of commerce and industry to give them to persons whose services had cov- ered thirty years. This service must be in the same establishment, although it might have changed hands several times. Intervening military service will not interfere. An important condition is that the beneficiary be a citizen of France, although his employers may be foreigners. Applications must be made on stamped paper by the employer in behalf of his employes to the prefect of the department, who forwards them, with such notations as he deeme-necessary, to the: minister of com- merce and industry, and a formal inquiry isthen made respecting the char acter and standing of the persons on whose behalf the applications have been made. The medals are then presented, with suitable ceremony,’ to the employes by the mayor or his representative at his office (Mairie), in the preserice of the employers and the friends of those to be hanored. This institution is very property held in high regard by those for whom it is intended. It is, in fact, a form-of decoration bestowed by the French government analogous to the Legion of Honor, since those who have received the medal are permitted to wear on the lapel of their coat, or, in the case of women, pinned on their corsage, a narrow tricolor ribbon, of red, white and blue. There is an organization at Havre, the Association des Medailles du Travail, composed exclusively of those who have received the medal or honor. This institution has, of course, nothing to do with the old-age pen- sion system in operation in France; but it is undoubtedly a factor in bringing about industrial solidarity, esprit de corps, loyalty to employers, and cordial relations between employers and their employes. it is not seemly for the men to work more than they can help. The women, therefore, do most of the manual labor, while their husbands, fathers and brothers laugh and sing, lie about at their kraals and tell one another what fine fellows they are. A little Zulu girl is weleomed into the world by her father because she will become a valuable asset in years to come. If she is taken care of some Zulu lover will pay a cow, or perhaps two cows, for the privilege of marrying the lady, and so that she may retain all her charms the little maid is not allowed to do any Hard work until she marries, excepting such things as carrying food or fuel on her head to her parents’ kraal. Whatever she may be carryjng, a Zulu girl instinttively puts it on her head. If she goes to a store to buy a pot of jam she walks gravely over the rugged country with it balanced there, and I have seen women in remote districts carrying great bundles of wood, which I tried and failed to lift quite off the ground. They get it on to the head unaided by lifting up one end first and gradually working the body under the burden until it is balanced. It is certainly no exaggeration to say the women could carry a bundle equal to their own weight for twenty miles in a day and think nothing much of the feat. The younger Zulu women have a noble carriage, which is the result of carrying burdens on their heads. ‘They walk with a singularly stately tread, their head and shoulders being thrown well back. But as they get older the drudgery of working in the ficlds begins to tell on them, and there is very little difference in the appearance of a woman of forty and a woman forty years her senior. a nerve-racking rush, try what keeping a schedule will do for you. Buy a notebook and head opposite pages with the day and date. Be- fore going to bed plan and write down the work of the next day. In the ‘evening sum up what has been accomplished. Tt does not take long to keep this simple schedule, but it is surprising how quickly you learn system from it. Busy women go so far as to plan certain duties for certain hours. Do not plan to do too much in one day, for then the opposite page is a disappointment which spurs you to unwise efforts or needless discour- agement. What is left undone one day may be carried over to the next day’s planning page as a jog against procrastination, Reading over such a notebook is an object lesson to the shiftless house- wife who works by fits and starts, gets nothing accomplished, has no time ee leisure, and ends by being a nuisance to herself and a burden to her family. ability to show for it, so few women endure maternity without injury. ‘The young woman, if not actually, is potentially, a mother. Because of the fact that motherhood means risk of life, risk of health, and certainty of agony and self-denial, we ask you to make the occasional sacrifice, not of life, not of health, but of comfort.

It is about the cost of a mod- ern locomotive. But a man fs different from a loco- motive. He can’t pull as much, but he can push a lot more. He can last long- er and run farther than the best loco- motive ever built. Most important of all, he can constantly increase the capitalization he represents and re- quire more interest to be paid on it, while the locomotive can never be worth a cent more than it was when it left the shop. The circular re- ferred to continues: “It rests with you. Make your $25, 000 valuation climb to $50,000, to $100,000, to $500,000. Select your food with care. Treat decently the body on which your mind depends for its strength and sanity. Above all, feed your mind. Read, study and observe. Like the engine, you can't do your work unless you stay on the rails and keep where the boss can find you. Re- member that no call boy ever found an engine in a saloon or other place of the sort.” ‘There is food for thought in these words, not only for railroad employes but for all other young mea—and young women, too—who are trying to get on in the world, make a success of their lives, and get the things, the place and the power they desire. We hear a great deal now and then—from failures, idlers or busy- bodies—about young men not having now the “chance” they once had. At bottom the statement is a falsehood. ‘The world was never so hungry for really efficient men—for men who can and will grow up to greater tasks— for men resolute to increase the capl- talization they represent—as it is to- day. Every discovery of science, every trlumph of invention, demands more and more capeble men to operate the machinery of civilization thus newly vrovided. It rests with the man—with each man—to show that he has the capacity. And real power always gets paid.—Chiecago Inter Ocean, SAND WILL DO IT. I observed a locomotive in the railroad yards one day, It was waiting in the roundhouse where the locomotives stay; It was panting for the journey, tt was coaled and fully manned, And it had a box the fireman was filling full of sand. It appears that locomotives can not al- ways get a grip 3 On their slender tron pavement, ‘cause the wheels are apt to slip: And when they reach a slippery spot thelr tactics they command, And to get « grip upon the rail they sprinkle it with sand. It's about the way with travel along life's slippery track, If your load is rather heavy you're al- ways silpping back: So, {f a common locomotive you com- pietely understand, You'll provide yourself In starting with ‘a good supply of sand. Tf your track {s steep and hilly and you have a heavy grade, If those who've gone before you the rails quite slippery made, If you ever reach the summit of the up- per tableland, You'll find you'll ‘have to do with a Mb- eral use of sand. If you strike some frigid weather and discover, to your cost, ‘That you're liable to slip up on a heavy coat of frost, Then some prompt, decided action will be called Into demand, And you'll slip ‘way to the bottom if you haven't any sand. You can get to any station that is on life's schedule seen {f there's fire beneath the boiler of am- bition’s strong machine, And you'll reach a place called Flush- town at @ rate of speed that’s grand, If for all the slippery places you've a ood supply of sand. =Chicago Tribune. What the Railroads Do. It seems very simple to see the pas- senger trains run in and out of the station; to order the freight car and send the grain to market; to telegraph to the nearest large town for supplies, and in 24 to 48 hours have them de- livered, But it 1s not so easy and sim- ple as it seems, and there is danger today that the next great uplift in business in the United States will find the railroads, as a whole, sorely taxed to furnish the transportation needed for the commerce of the country. Why? Because a misdirected public opinion is demanding rates too low, taxes too high, wages too high, service too elaborate, and there was not cents enough to the dollar to meet all these obligations and still permit the bust- ness to be attractive enough so the man with the dollar will invest it, Qur American railroads have done good work, and can do better, and it is to the farmers’ selfish interest to see that they are so treated that they will be ready at all times to handle business. To be ready requires con- stant expenditure.—Leslie's, WATCH THE WHEELS CLOSELY Canadian Experts Declare Defective Flanges to Be Frequent Cause of Rallroad Accidents, ‘The railroad commission has issueq a circular to motive power foremen on the Canadian railroads urging the importance of a renewal of locomotive wheels before the flanges are badly worn. Inspectors ta the service of the commission report that many locc- motives on passenger trains have sharp flanges, in some cases the flanges being worn down below the master car builders’ standard allow- ance gauge. Some of these locomo- tives are running on fast passenger trains, thus Inviting much unneces- sary risk to the safety of hundreds of passengers. ‘The wearing down of flanges on lo- comotives is only one minor contribu: tor to the long chapter of railway aceldents. Derailments arise either from defective equipment, bad track, or faulty switching. As a rule, when a locomotive jumps the track, the ac cident {s ascribed to some peculiar de fect in the track, rather than to in sufficient flanging on the locomotive It {s undeniable that many supposed rail defects are in reality the outcome of defective driving wheel tires. The Railway Age Gazette tells of 100 rail on an Illinois railroad being broker on one trip by a flattened driving wheel. The recently issued annua report of the interstate commerce commission shows that out o 8,215 derailments on American rail roads during the year, 3,847 were dur to defective equipment, an increasr of 1,023. Bad ties, loose spikes, poo: ballasting, insufficiently —_flange wheels, rail breakages due to flattene wheels, all played a prominent part i causing these derailments, Fortunate ly derailments of locomotives cause, by defects in their own mechanism o driving surfaces are comparativel: rare, The warning of the railway com mission is not uncalled for, however for a worn locomotive flange migh suddenly precipitate a great disaster. ADDS TO STRENGTH OF RAIL‘ Invention of Frenchman Sald to Over come Defect Which Has Long Been Recognized. Rails with exchangeable treads consisting of a number of strips of very hard steel alloy sunk into their head, is a recent invention by a4 French engineer. The object is to make that part of the head which ts ANU RYN VR\\ AS i isan Newest Idea for Rail. normally in contact with the wheels more wear-resisting, an end which cannot be attained by hardening the whole rail, for the shocks and stresses to which it is subjected make it imperative that it be of not too hard steel. The new rail is made in two forms; one, as shown by the sketch, for light traffic, having the hard-stéel strips sunk into the head and held by setscrews; the other, for heavy traffic, consisting of three parts bolted together, the strips being held between the two parts of the head. Another feature of this rail is that the hard étrips may be so laid in, that web plates, holding the ends of two lengths of rails together, become su- Perfluous, thus insuring shockfree, smooth and noiseless running.—Popu- lar Mechanics, Campalgn Against Strong Drink. General managers of railroads throughout the United States are con- ducting a campaign against the use of intoxicating liquor-in construction camps, and the results are said to have been satisfactory. A report disclosing the evil effects of liquor on men engaged in railway construction, prepared by Dr. C. Fish er, chief surgeon of MacArthur Broth- ers’ Construction company, recently has been given wide circulation among railroad cfficials. A statement issued by J. L. Campbell, engineer of maintenance of way of the El Paso & Southwestern railway, says: “The EI Paso & Southwestern rail- road can bear witness to the beneficial effect of the absence of liquor as a re- sult of experience in extending ite lines recently to Tucson, Ariz. The construction period lasted 12 months, and about 1,200 men were employed. Saloons were not found at any point along the line of work, & distance of 65 miles from Fairbank to Tucson. Not a man was killed. “There were no serious injuries on account of the use of explosives. The only fatality resulted from a fight at Fairbank, where a licensed saloon was conducted. It was a matter of fre quent comment that the work pro gressed with an unusual degree of or. derliness. This result was obtained through. the co-operation of the coun: ty commissioners, who refused to grant licenses for the sale of liquor.” Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Cumber have moved to 1923 Clarkson street.

Officers and stockholders of the Golden Chest Mining and Milling Company are much pleased with the showing made this week by the car of ore sent down to the Denver smelter. In the past the company has made small shipments of selected ore, but this time, all the ore in the vein was sent with the design of finding out just what conditions prevail now. Assays and tests are accurate so far as they go, but the selling price of the ore at the smelter tells a story that needs no further proof. They found from a shipment of sixteen tons a new return of $163.00 over and above expenses of freight and smelter treatment. This makes a profit per ton of about $10. In the light of the fact that many mines at the stage of development of the Golden Chest are not producing ore valuable enough to pay shipment and treatment charges, the showing is most satisfactory. It is planned to continue the production of ore under present conditions until sufficient capital is gotten to add power drills and all machinery necessary to large workings. DEATHS.

Mr. Fountain told the doctor, he (Fountain) would have her treated by a doctor of his choice and that he was furnishing all necessary medical aid for his wife. The doctor persisted in attending Mrs. Fountain over the protest and notice of the husband not to do so. Fountain refused to pay a bill of $229 and was sued in the Justice Court. He lost the case and appealed to the County Court, where, on Friday his attorney showed that the doctor had no right to impose his services on Mrs. Fountain after notice not to do so, and the jury in ten minutes gave a verdict for Ed Fountain and against the doctor.

Hackley's musical romance, "The Embassador," booked for the Broad Street Theatre, Philadelphia, June 12th, is founded upon some actual and some not impossible diplomatic conditions past and present, involving the United States with the government of Morocco. The scene is laid in and about Fez, the Moorish capital, where Raisuli, a lawless native chief, has been conducting a wholesale business of kidnapping foreigners and holding them for ransom. By arrangement between the two governments, General Bug, special ambassador, accompanied by a regiment of Yankee marines, is sent to Fez to force the relase of American hostages, and bring about the punishment of Raisuli. Captain Bascom, in charge of the regiment, expects to be warmly welcomed to Fez by Marjorie, the niece of Colonel Todd, resident United States consul, but diplomacy and love do not mix well. Between the strenuous military campaign ensuing and the efforts of the consul to keep the lovers apart, amusing situations arise which are finally brought to a climax by the capture of Raisul. All ends well, and the Sultan and his court bestow honors upon the Americans. An amusing side character in "The Ambassador," quite new to burlesque, is that of Professor Ketchum, an American naturalist, who is gathering specimens of natural history in Africa for the Smithsonian Institute, a la Roosevelt. He is always in the running. NOTICES TO BE PAID FOR. Owing to the increased cost of publication, it becomes necessary to make a nominal charge of 50 cents, payable in advance, for all cards of thanks, notices of condolence and resolutions. The price of room rent ads and other liners that run on a monthly rate of 50 cents must be paid in advance, as small a rate and pay a collector's commission.

HANDFUL OF NEW DAINTIES Ideas That May Be Carried Out Whenever a Particular "Spread" is to Be Served. A new sandwich to serve with aft ernooon tea is two slices of hot, crisp toast, dipped on one side in melted butter and filled with iceed raw oysters, sprinkled with lemon. A variation of this filling is to stew the oysters until they curl slightly, remove the eye, chop rather coarsely with a silver knife, and mix with mayonnaise. Another good toast mixture has the toast prepared in the same way and filled with finely scrambled egg, sprinkled with finely chopped, crisp bacon. Both of these sandwiches must be eaten immediately or they are not good. Instead of serving lemon with tea, have on the tray a jar of grapefruit marmalade—in a silver holder or crystal jar if you have an eye and pocketbook for effect. Put a teaspoonful of the marmalade into the tea instead of the usual slice of lemon. Queer, but good. Orange marmalade is used in the same way; so is preserved ginger and branded fruit. The latter must be chopped into quite small pieces if the fruit is whole. The Russians use preserves of all kinds in their tea, but the marmalades and conserves that have a slightly acid or pungent tang are less cloying. A sweet toast is made by cutting small squares or oblongs of toast. This is dipped into a mixture made from a pint of hot milk, into which has been stirred the grated rind of a lemon and four tablespoonfuls of sugar. Flavor with a dash of brandy. Dip the soaked toast in beaten egg and fry quickly in hot butter, or bake on a well-greased griddle. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve immediately. In the KITCHEN Homemade cakes will be nicer if the flour is put in last. Whole peppers are better for seasoning soups and sauces than ground pepper. A teaspoonful of vinegar put into home made candy keeps it from being sickly sweet. Faded plush may be brightened by brushing it lightly with a clean sponge dipped in chloroform. Chopped preserved ginger added to the sauce served with cottage pudding is a delicious accompaniment. Corks may be kept in bottles when travelling by sticking them in with adhesive plaster such as surgeons use. Gold-edged glassware should not be washed in strong soapsuds. The soap will in time make inroads upon the glit. When cooking tomatoes to strain and use for tomato jelly, the flavor will be improved by a bay leaf and a piece of mace added. A small quantity of carbolic acid added to paste, mucilage and ink will prevent mold. An ounce of the acid to a gallon of whitewash will keep cellars and dairies from the disagreeable odor which often taints milk and meat kept in such places. Spider Johnny Cake. One and two-thirds cups cornmeal, one-half cup flour, one-fourth cup sugar, one teaspoon salt. Sift together and add two eggs which have been beaten together with one cup of sour milk and one of sweet, in which one teaspoon of soda has been dissolved. Stir thoroughly. Put one tablespoon of butter into a hot spider. When melted, pour in the batter and place the spider on the lower shelf of the oven. Pour over the batter another cupful of sweet milk without stirring. Bake from twenty minutes to half an hour. Cocoanut Buns. One pint flour, one-half cup shortening, one-half cupful sugar, one teaspoonful baking powder, one egg, one-half cupful finely chopped coconut, one-quarter teaspoonful salt; milk to make a stiff batter. Rub the shortening finely into the flour, add the baking powder, salt, sugar, coconut, the egg well beaten and the milk. Place in small pieces on a greased baking tin, brush over with milk, sprinkle with chopped coconut and bake in a hot oven fifteen minutes. Macaroon and Peach Cream. Soak two tablespoons of granulated gelatine in one-half cup, of water. Make a custard of one pint of milk yolks of two eggs, three tablespoons sugar, a speck of salt. Add gelatin and strain. Set in ice water and stain until it thickens. Add whites of two eggs beaten stiff, nine macaroons broken into pieces, one teaspoon vanilla. Line a mold with peaches, turn in mixture, chill and serve with plain or whipped cream. Tomato Soup. One quart can of tomatoes, one pint of hot water. Let come to a boil. Melt one tablespoon of butter, blend with two heaping tablespoons of flour, stir into boiling mixture and add seasoning. Boil for fifteen minutes and strain.

SHERMAN EMORIAL DAY this year will witness the perfecting of the nation's plans for honoring her military dead. It will see the final fruiting of a national, official sympathy with the bereaved who have lost sons, brothers and sweethearts in their EMORIAL DAY this year will witness the perfecting of the nation's plans for honoring her military dead. It will see the final fruiting of a national, official sympathy with the bereaved who have lost sons, brothers and sweethearts in their country's service. It will witness the final results of the nation's attempts to do all things possible for those bereaved and for the memory of the dead. It is a big task, and the manner of its accomplishment is the story of a tribute paid to one of the noblest sentiments that has ever been lodged in the breasts of a people. In that attempt, since 1900, for instance, the United States government has supplied free of charge 150,000 headstones to mark the graves of soldiers and sailors who have done her service. To the cemeteries of the great cities, to those of the quiet hamlet, to those on the borderlands of civilization, these headstones have gone. This Memorial day they offer themselves to a scattered multitude as fitting places for the bestowal of floral wreaths. The unmarked graves, through the efforts of the government, are growing fewer. In the national cemeteries alone there are the remains of 154,000 unknown heroes who have met death in the defense of their country, and who must, because of the loss of their identity, be denied individual recognition. Yet the nation has exhausted every resource in attempting to find the names of these heroic dead. The very futility of these deaths, from the standpoint of the credit received by the men as individuals, calls forth a sentimental appreciation of their service that overshadows that accorded the men with the handsomest monuments. The unknown are being reinterred in sacred ground, their graves are being kept green and great monuments are being erected to them, collectively. Every effort is being made to prevent the recurrence in the future of the tragedy of the "unknown" grave. At the war department army regulations have been drafted and put into execution that are so rigid that in the future it will be impossible for the soldier who fights for his country to fail of identification wherever he may fall. Above all this, the government has developed a system of careful and generous disposition of the remains of the dead soldier or sailor that offers the greatest possible recompense to the aggrieved and the best possible chance for the perpetuation of the memory of the gloriously dead, for the remains of any man who dies in the service, wherever his end may come, are transported to any other spot on the globe that be designated by his family and there given burial with military honors. All this is at the expense of the government, for the glory of the dead and the consolation of his family. Finally, the government is marking the graves and placing monuments over the remains of the Confederate soldiers who died in the northern prisons and hospitals during the Civil war. Wherever any man dies for whom it can be shown that he ever served in the United States army or navy, the Federal government stands ready to furnish for his grave a headstone of marble neatly inscribed with his name and indicating his military service. The government has a large contract with a firm in Massachusetts to furnish these headstones. Under the contract 20,000 such headstones were delivered last year. An average of 15,000 a year have been so delivered for the last score of years. Since this policy of marking the graves of the military dead was inaugurated in 1873 there have probably been 500,000 stones that have gone forth and which are today standing over the graves of men who once fought for their country. The nation is willing and anxious to continue their distribution of monuments free of charge, with freight paid to any point. It is hoped that eventually every grave of every soldier will be marked with a stone that will survive forever. The graves of all soldiers and sailors who are buried in national cemeteries are so marked when the identity of the individual is known. There are some 80 such cemeteries with a total of 300,000 men buried in them. But of this great aggregate of assembled dead of the military there are 154,000 buried beneath the slab of the "unknown." There are acres and acres of these white headstones that mark the graves of soldiers whose identity was never established. At Fredericksburg, Va., there is another 12,000 graves of men whose mothers never knew where they rested. There are 9,000 of them at Memphis; 12,000 at Salisbury, N. C.; 5,000 at Richmond; 4,000 at Nashville, and similar and smaller numbers scattered over the country as a whole. At the greatest of the national cemeteries, that at Arlington, opposite Washington, D. C., there is a single great monument that marks the burying place of 2,111 unknown soldiers whose remains were gathered from the battlefields of Virginia. But the unknown population of the national cemeteries is to be prevented from largely increasing. Today when a man is inspected for active duty metal tag of identification is a part of his equipment. When men go into the field of active service each wears about his neck a piece of tape, and hung upon that tape there is a metal tag which contains his name, the branch of the service to which he belongs and his particular regiment and company. This tag is made of aluminum and the lettering is stamped into it. It is practically indestructible. If a man is killed in battle he may always be identified. When the identity of the individual has been established the department will communicate with his relatives. If they desire his remains, these will be prepared for transportation to the old home. They will be brought back to his own people to be buried as they wish. All expenses will be borne by the federal government. If the relatives of the dead soldier or sailor prefer that he be buried in a national cemetery they may so order, and the orders will be carried out to the letter. There are the men who have died in the Philippines, for instance. None of these are left to rest in this foreign, tropic land. All are eventually sent back to the states. Relatives are informed of their coming. They may order the disposition of the remains as they see fit. In case there is no call for the remains of the Philippine veteran, his body is interred in the national cemetery at San Francisco and duly marked. During the Civil war there were great numbers of Confederate soldiers taken prisoners and held in northern prisons. Many of these died in these prisons, and many others, suffering from wounds and disease, died in the hospitals of the Union forces. Two years ago the federal government appropriated $200,000 to mark the graves of these Confederate soldiers. That money is now being expended. The task is practically completed. The Confederate dead are thus being honored in the land from which came their enemies in the monster conflict. At many of the prisons the dead Confederates were buried separately, and their graves were marked with their names. In these cases the graves are being permanently marked with headstones of a design different from those used for the Union troops, but in no way less imposing. There is the cemetery at Elmira, N. Y., for instance. The resting place of the Confederate dead at that point is no less beautiful nor well cared for than are any of the national cemeteries. But in most instances it was found that the dead had been buried in trenches, as were most of the dead on both sides in that war. Here it is impossible to identify the individual remains, but the names of all the men buried in given trenches are to be found in the records of the prison. In such cases one imposing monument is erected over the spot and the names of all the dead resting there are inscribed upon it. Such a monument has been erected at Camp Douglas, Chicago, and upon it are names of 4,275 Confederates. At Point Lookout are the remains of 3,300 prisoners who died, and their resting place has been marked by a similar monument. The same course is being followed at Finns Point, N. J.; at Alton, Ill.; at Camp Morton, Ind., and at Camp Chase, Columbus, O. All such burying grounds were marked by Jan. 1, 1912, and the commission appointed for that purpose disbanded The federal government has taken no action toward marking the graves of Confederate soldiers other than those who died in northern prisons and hospitals. But throughout the south the various organizations, such as the United Confederate Veterans and the Daughters of the Confederacy, have given ample recognition to the men who died for the southern cause. Their bodies have been gathered in special cemeteries, monuments have been built in their honor and their graves have been appropriately marked. In the south on Memorial day there are often enacted scenes that are even more touching than those in other sections, for there the veterans of both causes, those who wore the blue and those who wore the gray, join hands in honoring the military dead. Oftentimes the uniforms of the two causes, worn by men in the very eventide of life, are in evidence and old animosities are buried in a realization of the valor of both combatants and the fact that each fought for a cause he deemed the right. EXECUTED ON THE COMPLETE OF THE SOCIETY OF THE LAND OF THE DUNBEPARK. STATUE OF GENERAL THOMAS But everywhere under the Stars and Stripes on Memorial day there is an outpouring of those who pay homage to the soldier dead. Everywhere is evidenced the thoroughness and efficiency of the nation's attempt to take care of its dead and assure the perpetuation of the name and the credit of the martial hero. Twelve freight trains of 25 cars each would be required to haul the money in 20-dollar gold pieces that this nation has paid out in pensions to the veterans of the Civil war. Ten freight cars would be required to haul the money in gold that the nation pays to its veterans in a single year. These amounts promise to be greatly augmented by legislation now pending before congress. The pension office in Washington is the primary monument in honor of the old soldier. It was built with the particular idea in mind of furnishing a clearing house for the gratuities which the government extends to him. It is the largest building ever erected by the federal government. The maintenance of the pension service alone in its handling of the sums that go to the pensioners cost the government $2,650,000 last year. The net sums paid out in pensions has during the last few years amounted around $160,000,000 annually. This appropriation would mean a couple of dollars to every man, woman and child in the nation. Indirectly every man, woman and child contributes a couple of dollars to it. The government has expended in pensions to date for all the wars of the past a little over $4,000,000,000. Of this $3,000,000,000 was received by Civil war veterans. Four billion dollars is an enormous amount of money. There is at present in the United States, including all the gold, silver and paper money in all the treasuries, banks, wallets and old socks, but $3,556,000,000. This is to say, there is not enough money in the United States today to pay, at a single time, the pensions that the Civil war veterans have received. So, in the course of drawing their stipends it is evident that the pensions have at one time or another had all the money there is. There is but $1,750,000,000 in gold coin in the United States. There is not half enough gold coin in existence to have paid these pensions had the call come all at once. The government has paid out altogether 250 carloads of gold coin in pensions. All its gold might have been used two and one-half times over in the process. If this twelve trainloads of gold were loaded at once it would require but nine additional trainloads to haul the balance of the gold coin of the world. These pensions are paid quite cheerfully. There is hardly a dissenting voice in congress when a proposal to increase pensions is introduced. The people approve of the action. They worship at the shrine of the martial hero and are willing at all times to be taxed that he may be given further pittances. The pension appropriation is the largest individual item when, each year, congress makes up the list of governmental expenditures. Yet scarcely a voice is raised in disclaimer. Administrations may lay heavy stress upon the program of economy, but no suggestion is ever made that the pension roll be cut. When measures of pension increases are brought before congress not even the Democrats vote against them. When investigating committees go roaming through government departments in search of financial leaks the pension office is clear-listed and no questions are asked. The veteran and his pension are held sacred. When the question is raised as to who shall secure position under Uncle Sam, the veteran is again given the advantage. In the civil service, in the first place, the age limit is removed from the old soldier. Be his age what it may, the positions are all open to him. In the examinations that must be taken under civil service rules the veteran need secure an average of but 65, while the civilian must rate at least 70. No Escape.

Post at White House Greatly Desired by Members of the Police Force— Men of Rare Qualities Are Re- quired for the Service. To be “on the front door” of the executive offices at the White House is the most coveted police assignment. It {8 much of a “flxea post,” and the men on the post hold it down, year in and year out, whoever may be presi- dent. So their less favored associates on the force may feel envious, but opportunities to supersede the incum- bents are happeings of once in a de- cade. The front door is guarded during the day by two privates and a ser- geant. The sergeant comes on duty early in the morning and remains un- til the force of the executive office goes home. The two subordinate al- ternate in the early and late tricks, one coming before the sergeant ar- rives, and being relieved in the middle of the day by the man who must stay until after dark. The sergeant has been stationed at the White House for over fifteen years, One of the privates got his jeeeenreeele eleven years ago, and his ‘companion has had the post for eight ‘years. "They were chosen for special qual- ‘fications. They stay because they have “made good.” Tactfulness, gra- clousness, gentleness—characteristics which are not expected of the average policeman engaged in quieting down disorderly persons—and also a wide familiarity with the faces and names of public men are required of the men on the front door. Sergt. C. L. Dalrymple—he ranks as desk sergeant—is remarkable for the number of men he knows by sight and name. He has a most retentive memory. His brand of courtesy 1s Chesterfleldian; he is anxious to sat- isfy every inquiry, give every aid to the visitor to accomplish the end he seeks, and goes out of his way to please and accommodate. ‘The executive offices are sometimes the scene chosen for disorder by men with a grudge to exploit, or with an insane idea of some sort. Sergt. Dalrymple has dealt with such in- stances for many years—and it is not violence with which he meets the sit- uation. ‘The person who insists on seeing some one who is not to be seen is al- lowed, as long as he or she is unob- trusive, to sit in the anteroom until their persistence wears out and they are ready to move on. Where insist- ence becomes of the belligerent sort, [the disturber is coaxed to the door on some suificient pretext, and persuaded to go about his business. The crank is treated in much the samé way, but 1s gotten quietly into the custody of the policemen stationed about the grounds, who disposes of the case in the orthodox way. Sergt. Dalrymple—he was a mere high private in those days—was as- signed to the White House in 1898, when McKinley was president. He performed duty on the outside, around the White House grounds, for three years before he was called inside, in 1901. Two years after that, in 1903, ke was “put on the front door,” and Nas stayed put ever. since. | NOT THAT KIND. Key Pittman, new senator from Ne- ‘vada, did much’ of his primary cam- peening: in an automobile, the auto ‘being the recognized mode of convey- ance in that state of few railroads. | Far out in the wilderness one day the machine broke down, Pittman ‘and his fellow-spellbinders wrestled with ft without avail. They needed more tools than the box contained. A hundred yards from the roadway stood a little shack. Pittman hailed it. A broad-shouldered Swede emerged. “Hey,” called Pittman, “have you got a monkey wrench?” “Huh?” said the Swede. | “I said, have you got a monkey wrench?” “No; this no ban monkey ranch; this ban sheep ranch,” and he slammed the door. THIRD LARGEST IN WORLD. ‘The foreign trade of Argentina last year, totaling $840,000,000, which was $120 for each person in the country, was the third largest per capita trade among the nations of the world, ac: cording to a statement just issued by the Pan-American Union, Holland and Belgium along made better records. In comparison, the statement points out that the per capita foreign trade of the United States is approximately $40. . Parts Women Dislike Motors.

But in victorla or landeau she will have space and leisure to be ad- mired.—Paris Letter to the London Telegraph. NEW BRANCH OF EDUCATION. “The municipal university is com- paratively new in this country, and its development will be watched with in- terest,” said Dr. P. P. Claxton, United States commissioner of education the other day, in discussing the Univer sity of Cincinnati. “There are cer tain significant things about this city university that tend to show how valu able such an institution may be to a community. Consider the student body. Something like 22 per cent. of the students are fatherless. Of the fathers of the others, less than one- fourth are in the so-called professions. Over three-fourths are in nonprofes- sional, commercial or mechanical pur- suits. As a furthes indication of the class reached by the university, 86.5 per cent. of the male students have followed gainful occupations before coming to college, and 74 per cent. of them work regularly for a part of the time during the year. “Although the municipal university may be more or less of a novelty in this country, it is by no means so rare abroad. Any one who has studied at Leipsic knows that the untversity in that city is not merely a great German university, but is first and foremost the University of Leipsic—a munick pal institution.” SMITH WAS PERPLEXED. Postmaster General Burleson had a caller the other day, and when the caller and transacted his business Mr. Burleson was minus just $5. The man had been hanging around the post- master general's outer office some time. He explained to Ed Smith, con- fidential clerk of the postmaster gen: eral, that he was a lawyer, had been to see Secretary of War Garrison and wanted just a minute with the post master general. Smith explained that his chief was very busy, but he man: aged to get the visitor in to see him late in the afternoon. As the latter emerged from the posmaster general's presence Smith was called in. “Look here, Smith,” said the post: master general, “don't you know that you let a book agent in to see me?” Smith was perplexed. “But never mind,” continued Mr. Burleson. “He had a book for sale for which I have been looking for the last three years and I bought one from him.” GREAT INFLUX OF IMMIGRANTS. The influx of immigrants into the United States for the fiscal year end- ed June 30, 1913, will probably be greater than that for any other year in the history of the country. Judging from the reports now being received by the commissioner general of immi- gration, the arrival of aliens in this country by the end of June will pass the high water mark of 1907, when ap- proximately 1,200,000 immigrants | landed on the shores of America. Statistics received by Commissioner General Keefe show that for the first nine months of the present fiscal year, which ended March 31, 1913, a total of 888,899 immigrants arrived in this country at all ports of entry. If this ratio should keep up, it is estimated that at least 420,000 additional will arrive during the last three months of the year, which will bring the grand total up to 1,308,899, the highest mark ever reached, according to the records at the immigration bureau. EXPERIENCE ONLY WAY. More than 40 per cent. of all the farmers interviewed by government representatives believe that expert- ence is the only way to learn how to farm. This percentage told agents recently sent out by the department of agriculture that they took no stock in farmers’ institutes, demonstration agents, farm papers or department of agriculture publications as aids in helping to make the soil more pro- ductive. Starting on motorcycles or on foot four department agents have traveled through 13 states, visiting every farmer along the way and asking questions. his inquiry revealed the fact that of the farmers who got de- partment of agriculture bulletins, 84 per cent. read them, and 48 per cent. followed the suggestions contained therein. Of those who attended farm- ers’ institutes it was learned that 54 per cent. practiced the methods advo: cated there. COLLECTION OF RARE BIRDS. ‘A collection of more than 2,000 rar birds has been presented to the Smith. sonian institution as the result of an expedition through Africa by Maj. Edgar Mearns, U. 8. A., retired, o} the army medical corps. The birds are now being classified and cataloged. Major Mearns accompanied Colonel Roosevelt on his famous African tour, and he was asked to make a second trip with an expedition fitted out by Childs Frick, son of the steel magnate. He also represented the Smithsonian institution on this expedition. Hot Sun No Ald to Crops; Farmers will be interested to learn, on the authority of a French scientist, that just as good harvests can be ex pected after a dull summer as after a long spell of sunshine. He says that the value of the burn: ing orb’s rays in helping crops 1s greatly overestimated. Observations show that crops were just as good after the summers of 1910 and 1912, when the skies generally were over cast, as after the universally sunny summer of 1911. ‘The reason for this, he says, is that only a moderate quantity of light is necessary to assimilate the carbonic gas in the air.

THE Colorado I Nothing could be prettier than the hats designed for bridesmaids except the maids themselves. This season will find these heralds of the honeymoon more picturesquely gowned, more fascinatingly hatted, than in any summer that lies within the memory of man. What with flowing curves in gowns made of supple, "live" fabrics, with the additional grace of the long chiffon scarf, the vogue of glowing colors and the beauty of millinery, bridesmaids have the opportunity to look like a dream of fair women—come true. Nearly all hats selected for them are of the picture-hat variety as heretofore. They are flower and feather laden with trimnings in gay, soft colorings. They are graceful to the last degree and the fashionable bridesmaid's scarf helps them out in being so. This is made of white or a light-tinted chiffon, bordered with Dresden ribbon in which are repeated the colorings in the hat. Matter of Underbody Is of Very Serious Moment Now That Warm weather Is at Hand. Among the latest models of blouses differing in color and material from the skirt is one of white tulle made after the style of a sailor blouse. The square collar is of fine valenciennes lace. Worn beneath this is a lining made of moire ribbon. The ribbon is so arranged in front that it forms a plastron which shows above the decolletage of the blouse. The sleeves of unlined tulle are set in halfway down the arm and reach to the wrists. Beneath show the sleeves of the underblouse of fine valenciennes. These fall over the hand and are tightened at the wrist by a band of moire ribbon. Elaborate underbodies are quite necessary now that sheer materials are used so much. A very pretty one consists simply of wide ribbon, which is seemingly wound round the figure and terminates in a voluminous chou in the middle of the bust. This may well accompany blouses of unlined tulle or mousseline. Most of these indispensable accessories are only held by a shoulder ribbon of varying breadth, but for evening wear this ribbon disappears, leaving the shoulders quite bare. It is most important to select carefully the ribbons which are used for this purpose. In such details one may be allowed great freedom if only it produces desirable results. Black velvet ribbons may give admirable results when employed with discretion.—Christian Science Monitor. BRIGHTER COLORS FOR HATS Smaller Models Make Black Seem Too Insignificant, and Headgear Loses Its Chief Charm. Weary of devising black headgear, the milliners are inducing their customers to take an interest in colors by bringing forward hats made of brocade, with exquisite colors splashed over a background of gold or silver. It is urged that the black hat came into fashion when "mammoth" millinery was worn, because women felt they could support a great expanse of straw and feathers only if it was of ebon hue. But the small hat now in vogue looks insignificant when wholly black, hence the prospect of the brocaded model. With a velvet brim of one of the modish jewel colors, such as ruby, sapphire or turquoise, and tempered by a black plume placed at the back of the head or in front, according to the fancy of the designer. The brocade hat is a descendant of the turban worn in the evening, and one of its characteristics is its fantastic plume. The most whimsical edition of the plume is called the "interrogation mark," because it suggests the question: "What form will the feathers take next?" Handsome Desk Sets. Among the new metal desk sets are those of copper or brass with an etched design in color. The dark rich blues and reds, as well as the greens, are particularly effective in this work. In designs there is a choice between those purely conventional and others quite far removed from any set figures. A model made of a leghorn shape faced with king's blue velvet is shown here. There is a collar of wide blue velvet ribbon in the same shade finished with a broad bow at the back and a bouquet of roses and hydrangeas at the side. It is worn with a silver-gray gown of crepe-de-chine. But if the bride prefers to be heralded with nodding plumes, here is a stately model which her maids may wear. It is made of white neapolitan braid faced with ivory lace. The plumes and wreath of ostrich are white tipped with that red called $ _{M} $ . The scarf is of cream-colored chiffon bordered with Dresden ribbon and having the ends finished with armlets of the ribbon. This transforms it into a loose mantle. The combination is wonderfully "chic" and up-to-date. The scarf must be reckoned with by the bride of today. It is a part of the play and immensely effective. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. interesting to Ponder Over What Grandma Would Have Thought of the Present Style. Pocket handkerchiefs are smaller than ever just now. What our grandmothers would have thought of the dimensions of this useful article it would not be difficult to guess. They would gaze in amazement at the little scraps of finest lawn with a border in pale color. These grandmothers would find that their descendants are wearing turn down collars precisely like those to which they themselves were accustomed when on earth. Nor is the arrangement of the hair very dissimilar from that of 40 years ago, with the exception that the flat band across the head was then unknown and would have been set down as a surgical bandage rather than a modistic bit of headgear. In one way we have improved upon the fashions of that period. The high heel has almost disappeared. This would be regarded by our ancestors as a distinct loss to beauty, but in their days health and hygiene were in little thought of. times The fashion of white mourning gowns is gaining favor daily. This gown is made of crepe with simple blouse effect and large white roses with black leaves. BY ELIZABETH ALLEN. "Isn't this a lovely winter day!" rejoiced the hostess as the young woman with the extra fine lynx furs came in. "Oh, by all means!" agreed the young woman with savage politeness, as she made for the open fireplace. "Still, you can talk till you're black in the face about the joys of snow and ice and ruddy cheeks and all the rest of that rubbish, but as for myself give me a thermometer that is climbing to the top like a new-rich family on the social warpath. You might throw in a few palm leaf fans and a case of sunburn into the bargain—I'll take them all!" "What has happened?" inquired the hostess. "You are so violent, dear." "Violent!" echoed the young woman who had just come in, hurling her muff at the Pekinese spaniel and dashing her gloves into a thicket of Boston fern. "I'm a mild ethereal zephyr compared with what I'd have to be if I expressed the sum total of my emotions! In fact, I have so many emotions that I feel like the person who lives in a two-by-four flat with folding beds squeezed into one corner and has her grandmother's mahogany four-poster bestowed on her! I've got to move, that's all! Violent! Come here, Chow, and let me bite you!" "Leave that poor, innocent dog alone!" ordered the hostess, hurriedly. "Is your new velvet dress spoiled, or what?" The young woman sank into a chair and groaned as she regarded the fire. "Worse," she related. "Beyond the limit of the impossible! You know Winston Wilder, don't you—the one we all call Winnie because he looks like it? Why, once when we were having conundrums somebody asked, 'Why is a Winston Wilder?' and the answer was, 'Because he was out when the fool-killer called!' I don't know why any of us have tolerated Winnie all these years except that he is generally harmless, in spite of his supernatural conceit. "Then, too, as for myself, I always was interested in counting the six hairs of his mustache and seeing if by chance there were seven, but there never were. I think he has those six glued on, and even they are kind of pink. He isn't even decorative at a tea, because he insists on talking and that shrill voice of his sends every one home. We have accepted him as one of the drawbacks to existence. Well, when Winnie appeared yesterday afternoon and said he had come to take me skating he seemed so sure about it that I went. Besides, I had nothing else to do and I like to skate and I thought I could forget he was along. "We had a lovely time at first, until I noticed that it was frightfully cold. When I get chilled my face always becomes so frozen that the muscles won't work and I can't talk. It's just as though they were set in a visc. I didn't know it had happened until Winnie began to propose to me." "Propose!" shrieked the hostess. "Well, perhaps you wouldn't call it proposing if you are finicky about words," admitted the young woman who had dropped in. "Rather he began to inform me that he had decided to marry me. It never would occur to Winnie to ask a girl about a little thing like that—his idea is that she would hurl herself at him in hysterical tears of joy should he but mention that she had a chance to get him. As soon as I realized what he was doing I turned upon him with a chilling sentence on my lips—where it stayed. I couldn't get out a word, so I sawed the air wildly and protestingly with one hand. "I know what I have said has startled and overcome you,' remarked Winnie as he grabbed my hand and pulled it down, 'but try to be calm! Try to control yourself! It isn't so strange when you come to think of it—you are a very attractive girl if you aren't a beauty and I never would marry for money anyhow. I want my wife to be a girl who has been brought up frugally, so she won't expect diamond tiaras and ten servants to wait on her. A woman's place is the home, making things cheerful for her husband, don't you think?" "I made some strangling, guttural sounds and Winnie beamed at me soothingly. 'I knew you thought so,' he said. 'You can trust to my judgment. I knew you cared for me, dear, even though you were at such pains to conceal it. The knowledge that you did so was what first touched me—it would have been unmanly to spurn your affection!' "I stopped short at this and pounded on the ice with one skate and glared at him and waved my hands and tried to talk and my face simply wouldn't work. "'Poor girl!' Winnie said, still soothingly. 'I shall take you home to recover from the excitement of the moment. I'll have our engagement announced at once.' "I live only two blocks from the park, you know, and between rage and horror I cried all the way home and the tears froze and pulled out my longest eyelashes, and I thought I'd die. I almost pushed Winnie down the front steps as I rushed inside and when I got my face thawed out I tried to telephone him. I've been trying ever since and he's not at home or in his office or anywhere and I can't stand another minute to have him dare to think I'm engaged to him! I won't have it! "What on earth are you laughing at? You are a heartless, brutal, unsympathetic friend, that's what you are!"
