TaE HIND of A GIRL SHE Is.

In speaking of Phoebe Cozzens, who
has applied to be appointed on the Utah
Commission, the Times" Of Frisco,
calls her young lady. The first time
we saw Miss Cozzens was about thirteen
wears ago, back in Missouri, at hen
convention, then being held in the city
OF Saint Louis, and she wore a much
larger mustache than we did at that
time. During the convention, while
the gentle Phoebe was delivering herself
of a speech, DIR. Mary Walker, who was
to speak after her, thought that Phoebe
was consuming too long time for "a brief
speech, and became very nervous; in fact
so nervous and inpatient had Dr. Mary
grown that her brooches couldn't held
her, and she bounded out to the front
of the platform by the side of Miss
Cozzens and commenced talking, and
such cackling match that took place
was never before or since witnessed. For
full half hour both of these women
yelled at the top of their voice, but the
audience was unable to distinguish one
word spoken. During this heated
contest the strong-mindsd women on the
rear of the platform were consulting the
best method to put a stop to this rivalry,
when Susan b. Anthony, Julia Ward
Howe, Mrs. Livermore and Elizabeth
Cady Stanton advanced to the speakers.
Anthony and Livermorc pounced on DIR.
Mary and Stanton and Howe jumped
Phoebe. Then came the tug of war.
The women went rolling over the stage
and got their legs so mixed up that 1t
was impossible for the spectators to dis
tinguish whether it was Anthony's legs
that were covered with alpaca breaches
and the Doctor wore the blue stackings,
or whether it was Stanton who wore
the pretty huted drawers or Phoebe,
During the whole of the melee Walker
and Cozzens were yelling as loud as
they could. By the aid of the other
old hens on the platform, the rivals were
carried out of the back door. There
was more fun there than at the last Dem
ocratic convention held in Lincoln
county. Miss Cozzens is not so young as
the public consider her. 1t would never
do to make her Commissioner, for she
would certainly talk the other members
of the Commission to death, unless DIR.
Mary Walker was also placed ON the
Commission, so as to stand her off.

He of late associates very little with his

Nearly every bridal couple that comes
to Washington-and Washington is the
national bridal Mecca-visits the Treas
ury vaults. The young and invariably
interesting couple want to closely in
spect Uncle Sans plentiful shekels.
When they enter the vault the man in
charge OF it, after few preliminary
words of explanation, hands down a
package Of notes from a shelf and tells
the bride to take it in her hands. He
then explains that this package contains
$40, OOO,O 900 in United States Treasury
notes. The young lady is delighted to
be able to go away and say that she has
held so much money in her own hands.
She is Just too utterly pleased. The
groom also wants to handle the package.
They are further told that the notes are
all of the denomination Of $4,000. They
constitute what is known as the '' Bridal
Package" Young married tourists hav-
ing heard of this package often ask to
handle it just as soon as they enter the
vaults. This is all very pretty. But il
is fraud on the young people. The
Treasury here does not hold that amount
of money. The bulk of the money is in
the Sub-Treasury at New York. That

to cause the heart OF the animal to pump
boracic acid into the tissues. For ex-
ample, sheep is stunned by blow, and
blood being withdrawn from, the left Jug

acid, kept at blood heat, is injected. The

pumps the antiseptic fluid into all parts

cost is slight, and the meat thus treated
