Woman Killing.
New York Herald. !


by far the most startling and horri-
ole feature of the criminal records of
the time IL the frequency with which
women meet violent deaths and Tho
| mystery which enshrouds nearly ever,
case reported There can be but ono
reasonable eXplanation--it il that
many women are very careless of thejr
personal safety. In the DAYS not lone
past, when nearly all the inhabitants of
this country lived on farms or in small
villages, knew all oftheir neighbors and
seldom saw stranger, 1t was common
boast that n woman could go any,
where alone without fear of molcsta-
ton. This cannot now be said of ALI
localities. Where tramps abound.
where towns grow rapidly and bad
characters resort 10 them, no woman
should expose herself To any possibility
of insult or injury. Many deaths Of
women may be attributed to the
recklessness with which acauaint-
ances are formed in certain classes.
In the cities and mauufacturing.tow
many women have accepted as suitors
men with whom their acquaintance
has been very Shorthand of whose ante
cedents they knew nothing. Without
The ordinary and proper restraints of
home or society such women are at Tho
mercy of the men whom they trust. Re.
cent events should teach women in all
grades of life that, although 10 appear
fearless and INSCRIPTIONS may seem
very pretty, 10 Is worse than idiolic.

A Narrow Minded View.


Col. Culbersun has introduced bill
granting right of way through the
indian Territory to the Santa re road
The action in this matter is diametri
cally opposed TO the commercial inter
ests of the larger portion of the district
he represents. To inflict this in
jury upon portion OF the people
VINO elected him to congress term after
term, and who have granted
him undeserved honor and re-.
spect, he must advocate an entire
change in the policy of the govern
ment toward the Indians, and viola
ton OF treaty obligations with them.
We cannot understand the discredit-
able zeal he displays to injure the
eastern part of his district. He has
publicly declared that he would NOT
offer FOR congress again, but ms he
made the same declaration prior TO n
former canvass, we have no faith
IN his assurance that he will not seek
reelection. We believe he intends
to run again, and that the introduc-
ton of the bill is a bid for the support
OF Paris, and the west end of the
district. He knows, wcpresume, that
whether he oilers or not, a gentleman
from The west end will contest for the
position. Ii would be more nolitic
we think, for Culberson not to sacrifice
the Interests of his friends in a Frantic
eliori TO win, the support of those
locally inclined to antagonize him.

Unmarried Women.

Que of the greatest social prob
lens OF the day is to explain why
there are so many manageable
women who never get married.
Some say that it is owing to an
excess If women over men, in
consequence of which there are
not husbands enough to go round.
This, however, is disproved by
statistics. Take the world
through, and figures show that
there as many men in it as there
are women. Others attribute it
to the expensiveness Of modern
lille. Men do not marry because
it is said they cannot afford it.
But the fact is that no man who
truly loved q woman ever hest
tated to become engaged to her
and eventually marry her because
of poverty. There are cold
blooded men, with no idea of any
feeling for any woman stronger
than languid admiration, who
may be deferred from assuming
what they regard as burden in
the shape Of wife unless assured
of a liberal income; but most
men are not calculating. Others
again attribute the evil to woman's
fastidiousness. They expect too
much in a husband, and, waiting
for an impossible shadow, let the
possible substance slip through
their fingers This is a libel on
the sex. As a rule they are no
more fastidious than the men are.
and they are just as susceptible as
men to that enchantment of love
which invests its object with every
perfection and covers every fault.
So far as men and women are
concerned, they are as prone to
marriage now as in any period of
the worlds history. Neverthe-
less, there are women waiting for
husbands and not getting them.
They are pretty, accomplished,
sensible, and under proper train
ing, would be wives and mothers.
but they never get chance.
What seems to be needed is a
more thorough method of bring
ing men and women into social
contact with each other.

said Reynard; "but still / can't
understand it, and. what's more,
I won't believe it till / see it,"
So the man said they had better
prove it, and the dragon crawled
down into the hole again; but in
the twinkling of an eye they
whipped out the lever, and down
the stone crashed again on the
dragon.
ssLie now there TIL doomsday,
said the fox. "You would eat
the man. would you, who saved

The dragon moaned, and
groaned, and begged hard to
come out; but the two went their
way, and left him alone.
The very first Thursday night
Reynard came to be lord and
master over the hen-roost, and
hid himself behind a great pile
of wood hard by. When the
maid went to feed the fowl, in
stole Reynard. She neither saw
nor heard anything Of him; but
her back was scarce turned before
he had sucked blood enough for
a week, and stuffed himself SO
that he couldn't stir. So when
she come again in the morning,
there Reynard lay, and snored,
and slept in the morning sun.
with all four legs stretched
straight; and he was sleek and
round as a German sausage.
Away ran the lassie for the
goody, and she came, and all the
lassies with her, with sticks and
brooms to beat Reynard; and, to
tell the truth, they nearly banged
the life out of him; but just
as it was almost over with him,
and he thought his last hour was
gone, he found a hole in the
floor, and so he crept out and
limped and hobbled off to the
woods.
ooh, OH" said Reynard, chow
true it is. IT'S the way OF the
world; and this is how it pays its
debts"

stands of eighty saws each, from two

ginning cotton for the seed Besides
the seed thus secured, this mill has
purchased this season two aud half
million bushels of seed, paying on an
average II 5-S cents per bushel. 1t
has already shipped 1917 barrels of oil,
and has ON hand fifty barrels more.
1t has shipped 5000 sacks of oil cake
and 500 sacks of oil meal, besides what
has been sold TO supply the demand.
speak particularly of this enter
prise, for the reason that il is one
whose benefits are shared by the entire
county and surrounding country. The
oil cake is said to be better stock feed
than the cotton seed in their raw
state.
