Since the invention of telegraphy few con-
spicuous changes have been made on the syG-
tenn of Morse. How to increase the number
of messages sent over the wire was the

Gus system of multiplex telegraphy, which
enables twelve, thirty-six. or even seventy

by his invention to transmit autograph sig

MISS ROSA RoNHEuR

Rosa Bonheur is the most talented among
a remarkable family of painters, who ex-
hibit artistic genius through three genera
tions. She was horn in Bordeaux, France,
in 1892 was the eldest of four children, and,
owing to the poverty of the family, she was
obliged to give the greater portion of her
tims to household duties. Her father was
portrait painter, and gave instruction in
art to his children. Rosa developed the
most inherent talent, exhibiting her first
painting at the age of Is. Among her forty
large paintings, the one which brought her
the greatest praise was the ''Horse FAIR
finished in 1851. 1t was In making the
sketches for this painting among the rough
horsemen that she adopted the male attire.
which she retained and prefers since. Her
appearance is that of a short. stout drover,
and not that of the most charming female
painter that Sver lived. Miss Bonheur was
never married.

THE hp1CHE OUTBREAK.

The troops have not yet succeeded in bring

prevented from escaping into Mexico, and
unless there should be a considerable stampede
of hosties from the other reservations, General
Crook may be trusted to give a good account of
Geronimo and his band. Such work is much
more difficult, however. than is generally
realized. The country is mountainous and
rough, and If the Indians break up into small
parties they can cover a great deal of ground
and iDfict much injury upon the widely scat
tered settlers. 1t is literally impossible to
protect the latter. for they are too far apart,

suffer. But it is altogether another matter
when the policy of allowing an untamaOle
savage like Geronimo opportunities for fresh
raids is considered
With regard to the majority of the Apaches'
General Crooks clement system seems to have
worked fairly well. 1t has brought out what
ever capacities for civilization they may have
possessed. But Geronimo and his immediate
followers belong to an irreclaimable element I;
and seeing that such untamab!e savages cannot
be confined to their reservation by the troops
available, 1t is certainly not fair to the sur
rounding settlers to expose them to the con-
slant danger created by the vicinity OF sucn
treacherous Indians. After this illustration OF
