TO HAVE GREAT OF SUBMA
Uncle Sam Will Build Eight of $3,000
To the tiny submarine torpedo boats has been delegated a lion's share of the work of protecting Uncle Sam's great seacost from attack.
Somewhat slow at first to adopt the newest and most radical of devices for combat on water, the United States has suddenly developed into an enmiless craft, and no measure passed by the reorganization was more important than that which placed three millions aside for use in building of submarines.
Lewis Nixon, the well known naval constructor, who has figured very largely in the building of American under-water fighters, calls the submarine a steel fish, with human brains and incalculable power to inflict damage.
Navy officials were taught a lesson of appreciation by the purchase of American built submarines by both Japan and Russia in the recent war.
UNITED STATES SUBM
The department has now ruled that which was good enough for the other warlike powers, ought to be of value at home, hence the important movement toward assembling the world's most powerful fleet of these mysterious protectors for the United States. Many congressmen fought against authorizing two new twenty-thousand battleships, each superior to the British "Dreadnaught," but not a word of protest greeted the plan to put Uncle Sam in the forefront of the submarine navies. This is a straw which shows how legislators have educated to the value of the submarine. As a lover of peace, the United States has ever been opposed to any naval and military plan that involved a large outlay of public money with the idea of provoking conflict with any nation. But that policy which meant only protection was ever heartily supported and will continue to be.

Mabel—I know, George, that you have not much money, but you needn't worry, as I don't care for money! Only let me have plenty of dresses and nice things, and I'll willingly share your poverty, no matter how poor you are.

Eve—That Miss Flirter turned down twelve young men and accepted the thirteenth. Do you think it unlucky.
Jack—I should say so—for the young man.
Here rests the value of the submarine. It is pre-eminently defensive in its purpose. The wonderful little fighters of the Lake and Holland type, now in Uncle Sam's navy, could not cross the Atlantic to levy war against England or France. The furthest distance the best of them can travel is 500 miles - 250 coming and going. Under water they can only go about fifteen miles each way. This limits their sphere of action to the home coasts and ports.
The new fleet, to amass which $3,000,000 is to be expended, will supplement the monitors and shore batteries that now would have to bear the brunt of defense against attack.
The United States now has one dozen submarines, and with the ones just authorized, will soon boast of a fleet of thirty, a respectable force that ought to make it possible to take ample care of the principal ports of the
ARINE BOAT PORPOISE ALONGSIDE
Atlantic and Pacific coasts; as well as those on the Gulf of Mexico and at the mouth of the Mississippi.
In providing for the purchase of the submarine, the lawmakers specified that they must be equal to the best class of that kind of boat now in the United States navy, which is another way of prescribing that the new underwater warriors will be not less than 12 feet in length and 12 feet in width, displacing, when submerged, about 125 tons of water.
There are many problems to be grappled with, not the least of which is the difficulty of devising a method of under-water navigation, which shall enable the captain of the craft, when submerged, to know to a certainty what is happening on the surface.
True, he always has the power to control the ship, but by doing this he locates himself to the fire of the enemy, a danger made greater in view of the increasing pow-

er of the modern torpedo boat destroyer, a fighting engine born of the necessity of finding a means to circumvent the submarine. There is no such thing as seeing ahead under the water. Thus far the best means of taking observations has been found to be in the use of the "periscope", a funnel-shaped arrangement, which projects eight feet above the water, when the body of the boat is submerged fifteen feet below the water. This navigator sees surrounding objects much as the photographer locates scenes and people on the "finder" of his camera. But the periscope will not avail when it comes to a final test, the launching of a torpedo boat at the bottom of the enemy's battleship. With the 'ship' stationary, the periscope might give definite information, but with both the submarine and battleship under way, the movement would be too rapid to permit effective alm, without coming to the surface. In all the models of submarine boats which Uncle Sam has under consideration the torpedo is so placed that at the moment of firing it is directly in the water, and the torpedo hits it, if only a glancing blow, nothing can save the mighty craft. It is the story of David and Goliath all over again. The ship is just as helpless be

fore the torpedo of the little boat as the giant of the Bible was before the stone from the sling of the Jew.
Perhaps the prime advantage of the torpedo boat is that she needs only great offensive power. A battleship must combine both. She must be able to deal death blows, and to resist the shells of the enemy.
But the submarine is ever immune from danger of being hit, or nearly so. When under water the sea compasses her around as a perfect shield. The shell that hits within five feet bounds and skips from the water, harmlessly as the stone a boy sends skimming over a millpond.
The periscope is placed in a tiny column, which can only be seen from a short distance, and then is a target so small as to be very hard to hit.
One noted expert has said that a small fleet of torpedo boats could have thwarted Farragut's achievements at New Orleans and Mobile bay.

DUEL BETWEEN ENGINEERS AND COLORADO RIVER
The Break Has Been Stopped, but 5,000 Cubic Feet a Day Are Being Poured Into Dam.
ROCK ON THE FACE OF DAM CLOSING BREAK IN BANK OF COLORADO RIVER.
THE BRIDGE
ROCK DAM COMPLETED ACROSS BREAK IN BANK OF COLORADO RIVER
"I was asked by the interstate commerce commission what I regarded as the greatest achievement of my railroad experience. My reply was that I considered the closing of the break in the Colorado river on the afternoon of Feb. 11 as the most remarkable achievement of recent history. In the handling of rock and stone our engineers made a good record which is likely to stand for many years to come."-Statement by E. H. Harriman in Washington, D. C. March 6.
President Riseus Steeltemanded that the Southern Pacific company take steps to save the imperial valley of California by stopping the break in the Colorado river, the prospect was gloomy. For years a duel had waged between nature and science, and so far, nature had won.
To-day it is different. The break has been closed, closed within a period which has astonished the engineering world. The feat was thus described by Mr. Harriman.
The time actually consumed in the time actually dating from the dumping of the first rock, was fifteen days and two hours, during the peral 77,000 cubic yards of material, 95 percent of which was rock, the balance gravel and clay, were handled. The difficulties which confronted the engineers will be better appreciated when it is recalled that the Colorado river, with a flow of 22,000 seconds-feet, was rushing madly through a break 1,100 feet long in soft earth banks In the
ROCK ON THE FACE
mil-channel the depth of the water was thirty-four feet.
But not only has the break been closed; the Southern Pacific engineers are determined that such a break shall not occur again. Additional material is being added at the rate of 5,000 cubic feet each two-wheel hours. When completed the dam will contain 140,000 cubic yards of material, 80,000 yards of which will be rock and the balance gravel and clay.
The maximum amount of water contended with during the construction of the dam approximated 40,000 second-feet. In a period of a little more than two weeks a structure of rock, gravel and clay was built across the channel. The top of the dam is now four feet above the level of water. Its vertical distance from the top to the base is sixty feet. The dam will be raised five or six feet higher, in order to be safely above highest known water, and it is to be paddler on the up-slide side with clay until it shall become entirely impervious. The great railroad corporation, with abnormally rolling stock, alone could have achieved this feast. The entire equipment of the Southern Pacific was at the command of the engineers during the period of the work. At times even the locomotives on passenger trains in transit were diverted to haul rock to the scene of the accident, and quarries hundreds of miles distant contributed materials to close the break.
Temporarily, at least, the Colorado has been conquered, but, like the Mississippi in its delta region, it will bear watching always. The Colorado is

one of the shiftiest, slyest, and most treacherous rivers that ever ran.
The original scheme to reclaim the Imperial valley represented a design upon one of the four largest soils in the world—a region with which the valley of the Nile can alone compare. No wonder that in the effort to protect this region for future generations, the president of the United States has thought enough of it to send to congress a special message on the subject.
This valley will some day be the home of 100,000 persons on hundreds of thousands of acres of truly garden farm lands if intelligent methods are employed. With a population of something like 10,000, property there is estimated to be worth in the neighborhood of $5,000,000 to-day, and some day it is thought it will be worth seven times more at least. There were nests of little farm houses to be saved, tiny hamlets or settlements, small villages and larger towns clean up from the Mexican border and the Imperial valley above the town of Yuma and the government works at La Paz. There were hundreds of miles of railway lines to be saved, main line and branch line, with their bridges, trestles, sidings and stations; there are salt works and other industries—surely a prize in itself the fighting for.
It was not so many years ago that the Salton district, with the Imperial valley, so-called, was regarded as very
much as Dead Sea fruit. The country was in fact a dried and dead sea. The Salton Sink was described by scientists as "crystalline chloride of sodium," which is mostly salt, and the Imperial valley was the undisputed home of the horned toad and the diamond-back rattlesnake. Some curious persons, geologists or others, investigating all this dry-dust land saw that the valley were really deposits of salt, left there ages before when there was a river flowing through, capable of the richest harvest if only water could be obtained for it. Rain was out of the question, and they suddenly realized that right at hand was the supply, all they wanted and more.
Nature had kindly arranged the New river, branch of the Colorado river, so that it could be made to transform the entire district without any trouble worth the mention. It had deposited the slit over it all, and the very act had raised its bed higher each succeeding century until it was above the level of the land about it. All that was needed therefore was to tap the river intelligently, locate the canals and the things would be done. The first tap was made in 1891 and the result was as expected. That part of the country affected began to blossom. Settlers began to come. Two years later a company was organized to take charge of the project. Without taking thought of the morrow, they put in finsmay dams, strung a few canals over the surface and sold water rights to settlers. In the spring of 1904 the demand for irrigation was so great that an

"Indeed!"
"Yes, she searched everywhere for a chap with a waxen mustache, pink cheeks and luminous eyes. At last she found him."
"Ah! And he is now her husband?"
"Oh, no. After she found her aesthetic ideal she turned right around and accepted the homeliest chap in town because he was a real man."
other tap was made just south of the first one. The second one had scarcely been completed when both taps were filled up by silt washed in by the river.
To relieve the situation, in July, 1904, a third tap was made farther down the river, about four miles inside the Mexican border. The location was chosen because it would give a greater drop to the canal and it was believed that the increased velocity of flow would keep the channel clear.
This tap caused the trouble. They had simply opened a hole in illuvial soil forming the bank of the river.
Floods in the fall of 1904 caused the mouth of this third opening to wash considerably, and at each succeeding flood the channel to irrigation canals kept growing larger until in June, 1905, almost the entire discharge of the river flowed into the Salton Sink, where a lake was formed which had an area of about 400 square miles.
Slowly it began to back up and flow back toward the Imperial valley. Farmers were compelled to leave, farms were inundated, miles and miles of railroad track and development went under water. The country became a wilderness of water.
Heroic efforts were made to stop the flood. The railroad's equipment and facilities were used and considerable progress made; but the fall floods washed out part of the work, only to have it rebuilt.
On Nov. 4, 1906, the break, which had been 1,800 feet wide, was closed, and on Nov. 15 all leakage of water through the dam had been stopped. It seemed as if the battle had been won, but another flood followed, and on Dec. 5 water worked its way under the levees south of the dam. By noon on the following day nearly the entire Colorado river was emptied into the Salton Sink. The president of the United States took a hand. He and OF COLORADO RIVER.
Mr. Harriman exchanged numerous telegrams in a discussion as to the best course to be pursued. It was a rather delicate task for the government to undertake because an international question was involved. While the damage was being done in the United States, the break was in Mexico. The upshot of it was that the Southern Pacific was pledged to do the work.

The six and a half million people in Greater London live in $23,008 houses. The population 100 years ago was just one fifth what it is now. Though the number of births was nearly double the number of deaths in 1904, the birth rate is steadily declining. The postal figures show that in 1905 there were 1,028 post offices in London, and 2,435 public telephones working. The total imports at London in 1904 amounted to $849,086,000, and the total exports $462,290,000. Some idea of London's wealth is shown by the assessed income tax value in 1904 in the administrative county, houses representing $219,264,000, trades and professions, $364,045,000, profits of companies and other interests $698,514,000, salaries (corporate bodies) $115,044,000, salaries (army and navy) $103,674,000.

IS BEING "RESTORED"
NEEDED REPAIRS BEING MADE
IN STATUARY HALL.
A very important project which is now engaging the attention of Uncle Sam's architects and builders involves the "restoration" of famous statuary hall at the United States capitol at Washington. That any undertaking having to do with this significant chamber should prove of concern to a large portion of the public is but natural, since nearly every visitor to the nation's legislative headquarters at Washington pronounces this improvised gallery of art the most interesting and most beautiful of the great white-domed building. But, aside from its architectural attractions, statuary hall is notable for its historic associations.
In the old days, when what is now the national statuary hall was the meeting place of the United States
Houdini's Statue of Washington.
house of representatives and resounded to the oratory of Webster, Clay, Adams, Calhoun and other giants of the republic, it was generally conceded to be the most beautiful legislative hall in the world. As time went on, however, and repairs became necessary, motives of economy or misguided judgment, caused some "improvements" to be made that did not justification. To undo some of this work is the subject of the present task for which congress at its last session provided funds.
Accordingly, for weeks past the marble figures in statuary hall have been boxed up and the big apartment has been filled with scaffolding, while dozens of workmen have been busily engaged in restoring this part of the capitol to the state, even as to details, originally intended. Incidentally it may be remarked that there is to be a corresponding removal of the obnoxious paint from the crypt under the great dome, which was designed to be the tomb of George Washington, here also is usually pillared. Here also are stucco pillars of Doric columns with grinded ceiling, which will take on a new dignify when relieved of the disgusting coats of paint applied during a long succession of paint applied.
But the restoration of the meeting place of the house of representatives during a most important period of the nation's history will not end with the restoration of the pristine glory of the circular walls. Two of the old stairways which led from the legislative hall to what was formerly the men's gallery and the women's gallery have been rediscovered and opened, and the men's gallery will be restored to the original condition which characterized it when more than half a century ago it was daily crowded with visitors who gathered to hear the men's like the leaders of the anti-slavery crisis and other exciting acts. The steps of this old stairway are of solid blocks of sandstone and of rather quaint design, and in each step, a little to the left of the middle, a distinct depression has been made by the trod of the countless visitors who passed up and down in the old times.
Probably the most interesting statue in the entire collection in statuary hall is the replica of Houdon's statue of George Washington, the original being in the capitol at Richmond. Sculptor Houdon was permitted to make casts and measurements of Washington's person, and consequently his sculptured figure depicts the father of his country exactly as he is. Great interest also attaches to the only statue in an in this national gallery of celebrities—namely the marble representation of Frances E. Willard, presented a few years since by the state of Illinois.

LIONIZING DARK PEOPLE.
The famous Japanese general, Kuroki, has been lionized at Jamestown, notwithstanding the fact that he is not "white folks."
And moreover, just now Miss Rofle of Becham Hall, in England, is the guest in Richmond of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Bolling. It was to Becham Hall that John Rofle took his bride, the Princess Pocahontas, when they went to England after their wedding, and it is on the walls of Becham Hall that the portrait of the princess in her court attire hangs to this day. Mr. Bolling is one of the few genuine descendants of John and Pocahontas Rofle, and Mr. and Mrs. Bolling are much pleased to welcome their young English kinswoman, who is a most attractively handsome girl, and has been most cordially received in Richmond.
It really seems that the authorities of Virginia have not taken into consideration the serious results that may fellow making such an ado over people who are not white, and who are actually so deprived as to boast of the fact of not being pure-blooded. The fact that Pocahontas was a so-called princess does not make her white, and the whole performance is

calculated to increase the aspiration of the Afro-American for social equality. No doubt Senator Tillman will agree with this conclusion.
WHY THE DOLLARS ROLL·IN.
The more the Tillmans, Dixons and Vardamans rave and sweat trying to convince someone besides themselves that education for the Afro-American is a failure, the more the dollars roll in to provide schools for his children. If tom dixon could be persuaded to play the Clansman a few more times in Philadelphia and if that old Molly-coddle who composed "The Vardaman Idea" for the Saturday Evening Post could be hired to furnish a few hundred columns more of hogwash for that journal, THE APPEAL really believes that the result would be a great increase of the donations for the promotion of Afro-American education in the South. When bentillman goes up North and harangues the Yankees between Cape Cod and H-1, the aforesaid Yankees rip him up the back by giving a million or so towards educating the Afro-American.
The fact is that they have grown tired of trying to educate such degenerates as Ben and Tom and Jim and have concluded that the Afro-Americans are far more susceptible to moral and intellectual training than they are.
INDIANA BEASTS.
The Washington Post furnishes the following account of recent doings in Indiana:
One night last week eight masculine members of the human family, animals whom the census takers are compelled to class as men, but who are lower than most of the brutes, although they are spoken of as "leading citizens of Owen County," offended by the conduct of two of their neighbors, shot—and probably killed—the man and, with informal cruelty, flogged the woman in the case. The Indianapolis News is authority for the statement that the prosecutor of Owen County says the man "and the woman deserved a whipping, but the shooting is deplored."
Such animals are not confined to the South and such curs are the prosecutor are found everywhere. The solemn fact is that the American character has greatly deteriorated of late years, largely through the intermitture of the lowest scum of the nations of Europe.
The off-color brother, in almost every part of the world, seems to be getting a hustle on him which is very disquieting to his white masters. China, Japan, Egypt, India and South
Africa are becoming restless and troublesome and are giving the "home governments" no little concern. This is the natural result of the white man's greed and cruelty which have made nearly the whole earth an Aceldama and Inferno. It is the concurrent testimony of the most reliable and candid observers—men of the white race—that the dark-skinned races of Asia and Africa are filled with hatred for the white man, as they certainly have cause to be.
PROTEST IS RIGHT.
Commenting upon the following statement:
* **Senator Tillman is to have a body-guard plain point policemen in an Omen to lecture.**
"Afo-Americans from all over the world are so poorly advised to prevent Tillman from speaking here." The Evening Star remarks: It is a pity that the Afro-Americans everywhere are so poorly advised in the past. We are a country of free speech, no man consults his own or the public's interests who attempts to abridge the privilege. It may, however, be easily proved that a good many people besides the Afro-Americans are "poorly advised," which, we presume is also a pity. Notwithstanding the fact that this is a country of free speech, lecturers have been mobbed for making charges against the Catholic Church or for interfering with saloons. "Salome" has been tabooed in New York and "Tae Mlkado" interdicted in London. We cannot see that it is any worse to protest against Tillman's hogwash thwart against Sapho, Mrs. Warren's Profession, or the Thaw nastiness.
An exchange says: "L. D. Strong of Macon, Ga., who accused a man named Smith of wronging his sister, considerably waited until the grand jury had found a true bill against Smith and then emptied five barrels of a revolver into him. As a reward for his self-control the coroner's jury took just five minutes to discharge him."
Thaw ought to get a change of venue to Macon.
Old man Vardaman is on the rampage again in an effort to break into the Senate. He is as ferocious in his defence of the white race as if he were a pure white man. If he would expend his talent in attaining a reputation as "heap big Injin," his performance would be more entertaining.
Some associated press Ananias spread the report that a distinguished citizen of Louisiana had written a letter as to the impropriety of allowing Afro-Americans to compete for the Rhodes scholarships, but the party accuses come to the front and denies that he did anything of the kind.
Women as Imitators of Men
Womanity vs. Humanity—Vanity of Modern Woman Over Her Achievements — Business Not Her Highest Occupation—"To Keep House and Be a Joyful Mother of Children" a Woman's Birthright.
(Mrs. Rebecca Dahls has long been known as a talented writer of fiction, and she has been mentioned "A Law Unto Herself," "John Drieck's Frances Waldeau" and "Dr. Warren's Philadelphia." She is the mother of Richard Harding Davis, the author).
Surely we are all familiar by this time with the claims to admiration of the new woman; the beauty and energy and keen mother wit which as Americans believe, set her apart from the women of other nations and make her unique, as was once the huntress Diana among the gods.
She never tires of counting over her recent successes, from the marvelous costumes that she wears to her achievements in biology, in cookery or in founding new religions. The woman of the last generation walked in a narrow path; in her life, as in a Chinese song, there were but three notes—love, marriage and motherhood. But this queen of the present hour has a thousand plays to play. You never know where to find her. She may be driving a four-in-hand in highway or looking for the north pole. In the arctic seas or nursing some poor migrant in the shrims, or most likely of all she may be getting herself comfortably for life as duchess or princess in some old English or Italian family. We all look on with pride, and wonder complacently what she will do next.
The chief difference between her and her grandmother—and it is a very curious difference—is that the older woman regarded herself simply as part of the human race. The man was its head, its spokesman. She thought of herself as his child, his wife or his mother.
The woman of to-day is not only his equal but his antagonist. She talks not of humanity but womanity. Every village has its club of women who urge each other into new professions, work or studies which have been considered the business of men. Every newspaper has a woman's department in which the successes of the sex in wrestling trades and handicrafts from their brothers and husbands are daily noted.
I saw to-day the announcement that a woman was now filling a place as brakeman on a western railway. This fact is told with a hysterical sob of triumph, as though this energetic young person laid her hand on the brake she had dealt a blow at the foe of her sex and had made for herself a long stride upward in the scale of being.
In our national exhibitions, too, there is always a woman's department where statues, pictures, soaps, confectionery, etc., made by our sex are exhibited apart to prove that women are as skillful with their fingers as men.
I confess I do not understand this bolligerm attitude in the modern woman or her vanity. Is she not human, like the man? Has she the same fingers, eyes and tongue? She is not a monkey nor a freak that her cleverness should be trumpeted and paraded as abnormal in the public eye.
A man when he invents a new plow or paints a picture does not shout out: "A man—a man has done this! Not a woman! See how superior the male of the race is to the female!" But we American women of late years never weary of boasting of the doings of our sex, and especially on the ground that they are so much like the doings of men! It is true that the close of the chicle of our women were forced to compete with men for work and wages in every part of the field of labor. They had to make a place for themselves then as wage-earners or starve. It was no wonder that they were aggressive and sharp during that time. But why squabble and fight now? The whole field is open to them. All of the fences are down. There is not now, I believe, a single honest occupation by which a living can be earned which is not open to a capable, decent man to our help. It is given a fair field and much favor. Whether she chooses to drive a garbage cart or write a historic novel, they invariably are kinder to her endeavors and
NO STRIKING CLOCKS FOR HIM.
He Had One, But Its Erratic Methods Made Trouble.
"One thing I have always wanted is a clock that strikes," said Robert Matere, of the Wabash, to a Kansas City Star writer. "Such clocks were a necessary part of the household furnishing when a boy. Well, I found one on the table Christmas, bearing a card, upon which was written my name. Before I got the clock I was in trouble trying to see the time in the early hours without setting fire to the house. Of course, I expected the clock to move and to my watch. The next morning after Christmas it worked, all right and as I lay awake I heard it strike six and I husted out for work.
"The next morning I was awakened by hearing the clock strike and without further ado packed myself down to the office only to find I was three hours ahead of time after waiting 20 or 30 minutes for an owl car to boot.
"The following morning I again
hurt the strike, but as I sounded only
on the phone, I knew it was true."
applaud her more loudly than if she were a man.
Why, then, this incessant, defiant assertion of woman's achievements and possibilities?
This constant noisy boasting seems to him to the loud cackling in the barnyard of a hen over each new-laid egg, as if an egg never had been laid before.
Another mistake, it seems to me, is made by my energetic young sister when she thinks that she needs to into life is the work which she does to keep herself alive. She sings such energetic paeans over her success as a doctor or china painter or saleswoman—she is naturally in her need of money so thankful to have work to do and so glad that she can do it—that she begins to think that when she was sent into the world, to work was to be her highest occupation.
In her body not true. There is not a fiber in her body nor an impulse in her nature which considers the real primary business in life is to be a home-maker, the comrade of a man and the mother of his children.
God in His wisdom may have denied her that highest and best work, but whatever else she may do she knows in her heart that it is the highest and the best.
A "southern woman" the other day rated her sisters of the south sharply because they "took it for granted" that no woman is a wage-earner except when the success is removed the would return to her old vocation—that of the lily of the field."
And why not?
The vocation of the lily of the field is to be fair and sweet, to make one little place on God's earth brighter and fitter for His sight and to reproduce its kind to do the same work when it is dead.
The woman who makes her home a center of help and intelligence and high endeavor, who brings forth children who fits them in that home for their future life, does some aquaph.
She does not need to earn a single dollar in any way to justify her right to live.
As for the woman who voluntarily gives up her birthright—"to keep house and be a joyful mother of children"—in order that she may busy herself with public work, she is precisely in the position of that mad English peer of whom we all read a few years ago. She is the one who gives her birthright—castles, title andeward order that he might tramp on the high road grinding a hand-organ for a dancing monkey. She is choosing the meaner part in her ambition to exploit herself before the public. No club work is as honorable or helpful as a gentlewoman's management of her home and family; nothing that her talents enable her to give to the world—whether she is a teacher, a will-writer, or be as important or powerful an influence in it as a living child.
This is not a pleasant subject, but when we read that the births of children of native American parents have fallen off one-half in certain northern states in the last two decades, it surely is worth our consideration. As men go, the native American is a wholesome good bit of that human stuff which makes up humanity. The world seems to need him just now. If he is not to be born into it, I doubt whether the books or charitable work given to it by childless American women will fill his place.
There is one pleasant fact, however, which cheers and comforts us in all these doubts and dangers. That is, that the large majority of American women have kept their footing during all the struggles of their sex since the close of the civil war. They have raised money for them, necessary to but they have not used money-earning to the highest place among the achievements of life. They have been shrewd, amused listeners to the feminine wrangles in clubs and newspapers, but are themselves usually silent and unpublished. Occasionally they have exerted the power of persuasion effect, as when for several decades they have silently refused to claim the right of suffrage.
They are best known by what they do not do. They prefer to live in homes, not in boarding houses and hotels. They are not childless mothers nor divorced wives. They find no higher code of truth to teach their little ones than that which Jesus brought to the world. They do not replace it with the wisdom of Christ or the vague yearnings of Buddhism. They answer all arguments by the question: "Who has led man so far upward as Christ?" and go on quietly teaching their children the Sermon on the Mount.
You call them old-fashioned and commonplace, perhaps. But they are eminently sane. One of the strongest proofs of their sanity is that they are capable to be woman and not imitators of men and that they still keep in their lives that charm of modesty and aloofness which the losy minority of our women have so foolishly thrown aside. When I awoke I found I had overslept two hours.
"I've reformed on the clock proposition," concluded M. Matee, "and all I desire now is a strong, sharp ax."
**Devil Dogs.**
"Devil dogs," said a globe trotter, "are a species of alarm clock. They are used in Greece for the purpose of keeping watchmen, stage drivers, railway signalmen and such like persons awake.
"Wode in a Greek diligence from Patras to Agrionin, and throughout the night a small black, devil dog, strapped to a stool beside the driver, barked, barked, barked. Sometimes he would pause for a second to moisten his parched, rasped throat at the basin of water set before him, then he would commence his sharp and maddening clamor again.
"Of course, he kept the driver awake, and we got through without a spill, but he kept all the passengers away. He kept the daylight came and the little black crevice ceased his tumult, my nerves were as raw and quivering as his throat must have been."

W. M. GIBBS
various societies and orders have done for the benefit of the world in general and St. Paul in particular. Each Order or Lodge will also nominate some young lady who will be voted for as "Queen of the Carnival" the one obtaining the greatest number of votes will be crowned Queen on the first night of the carnival and all the unsuccessful candidates will be the "Malds of Honor." A valuable prize will be given to the Queen. The speaking will take place in the church and the carnival will be held on the grounds of the church which will be enclosed and properly decorated. Each lodge will establish a booth to receive friends and distribute literature and information to the uninitiated. The carnival will take place the first week in July.
The candidates for Queen will begin their canvasses for votes as soon as selected by the various lodges. This promises to be one of the most entertaining affairs of the season. The Elks at their meeting Thursday night selected Mr. Irvin Welhorne to present their claims, Miss Flossie Cotton as their candidate for Queen and Mr. J. Q. Adams to have charge of the decorations of the Elks' booth, on Elks' night. It is desired to hear from the other Lodges as soon as possible.

Miss Lina Norine Smith was among the graduates at the South Side High School Commencement this week. Timothy George Flynn a fellow graduate much to the surprise of every body refused to sit by the side of the young lady at the rehearsal. Dr. C. M. Jordan, superintendent of schools, was notified and he directed that the boy sit in the designated place or not appear upon the platform. When this order was received by the boys of the class, an entirely unexpected complexion was placed on the afield by their unanimous refusal to appear on the platform without the Flynn boy.
This "strike" on the part of the boys created consternation. Teachers and principal of the school were agitated over the disgraceful affair; the fair name of the school as well as the success of the commencement were hanging in the balance, when a member of the school board called the boys of the class into a private session and made them realize the enormity of their offense. He bitterly denounced their action and the result was that Henry Leon Mosher, one of the most refined and manly looking boys in the class, stepped cut and offered to sit beside Miss Smith.
His action saved the situation and the commencement program was given without a ripple on the surface to indicate that any disturbance had threatened disaster.
The thanks of all fair minded people are extended to Supt. Jordan, the members of the school board and especially to Henry Leon Mosher for their manly actions.

EYE DEFECTS AND SYMPTOMS,
Wye defects are few—symptoms many.
There can be but t-vo defects in the human eye.
Theeye may be too long in whole. Then we have the
Myopic eye.
Or too short in whole—the Hyperopic eye.
Combine the two in one eye and we have Astigmatism,
Properly adjusted glasses will correct these defects.
Medicines or waiting, never.
Symptoms that spring from these two simple eye malt
ormations are manifold; such as eye and headaches, Indi-
gestion, Dyspepsia, Nervous Debitity, Chorea, Epilepsy and
other ailments having their origin in lack of nerve force.
We correct all Defects of the human eye that glasses
will remedy. Charges reasonable. Satisfaction guaranteed.
