A VERY QUEER GIRL.
The Belle of the White Cap Region in
the Ohio Valley.
Not Popular With Ladies, but Men all Say She
is the Cleverest Girl in the Ohio
Valley
corydon 1nd lcor. Kew York sun.

COrydon (Ind. )Cor. New York Sun
Of all the queer characters i'll the part
of the Ohio valley that has produced the
genuine White Caps, Miss Pussy Posey is
unquestionably the queerest. There is
no drummer, or detective, or tourist, or
state official who has been to that region
who has not ever since held audiences
with Miss Pussy. In one respect she is a
woman apart from all her neighbors. An
enterpssing relative took her to Cincin-
natl while he was in business there, and
she lived in that city two years while she
was just entering upon womanhood. The
result stays with her. She dresses
more as city folks do than like tbs
severely callco-clad women of the Hooser
families around her who are apt to be
seen out of doors in poke hoods, bustle-
less gowns that hang in straight lines
from their shoulders, and in coarse
belle of the valley. She goes to Cincin-
natl, New Albany, or Louisville for her
hats, and she makes her own dresses
after the patterns of what she sees the
women IN those cities wearing. 1t is not
at all likely that she makes any lady ac-
quaintances in those towns, for even III
the little village where she lives she is cut
off from female society as absolutely as
was Hawthorne s scarlet woman.
All the men say that Miss Pussy is a
good and Virtuous woman. Nearly all
the women shrug their shoulders when
her name is mentioned. The reason is
that she swears like pirate and tells
humorous stories of 4 kind that men
whisper below their breath even in the
mems clubs OF New York. She is always,
when out of doors, to be seen in the COM
pany of men, almost always with men
strange to the neighborhood, and often
with men who have only been in the place
a few hours. Yet, without exception,
these men insist that, while she is unlike
any woman they ever met, they are con-
WINGED she is above reproach, except in
so far as her freedom of speech is con-
cerned.

WINNIPEG, NAN, Feb. 12.-An cpl
demic of the most virulent character has
broken out among the Chippewayan In
dams in the Cold Lake district, north of
Fort Pitt, where the great massacre took
place in 1885. Messengers just arrived
from there report that the red skins are
daily dying off by hundreds. Exactly
what the disease is cannot be ascertained,
but from descriptions given by
messengers, medical men think
it is either smallpox or scarlet
fever of the most malignant type
Those who have come from the reserve
declare that if prompt action Is not taken
to prevent the spread of the contagion,
the whole tribe of ChippeW ayans viii
soon be exterminated This tribe is not
included among the treaty Indians, and
has been noted as among the most thrifty
and industrious of al the Indians in the

Written for the Gazette.
Nothing could have more absolutely
determined the fact that any considera-
ton of the morals of women, at any
point whatsoever of the round world s
surface, is bound up inextricably with
equal consideration as to the morals Of
men, than the attempt to discover the
actual status OF French women on this
point. And thus it happens that, having
sought diligently to disentangle the two,
finding it at last as hopeless a task as the
separation Of warp and wool in closely
woven web, I leave the title as it stands,
but add that what viii be written IS
rather certain conclusions as to French
morality as whole, than any attempt to
define merely one phase Of the question.
There are innumerable unsayory statis-
tics. It is perfectly possible to make the
page bristIe with them; but, having
accomplished this, would the truth have
been told? Not in the faintest degree,
since a half truth - is ever the worst of
lies, <and volumes of such statistics are
only one phase of the knowledge they
simulate. 1t is from life itself, as one
may see it from day to day, that the an
swer must be drawn, and if any one OBJ
jects that statistics are also from life, it
may be answered that facts deducted
from vivisection come under the same
head, but are Of an order hardly to be
called natural, or to be accepted as the
necessary and inevitable condition of the
animals under the knife. Certain the
cries applied and experimental upon for
generations have brought certain results.
1t remains to be seen if these represent
the real Possibilities Of life for the French
woman, or if other conclusions may still
be reached.
The American, no matter how dill
gently every phase Of French life which
has found chroniclers, may have been
studied, discovers that his imagined
knowledge is but the crust covering the
densest ignorance. 1t is one thing to
read Of customs, quite another to watch
their actnal application, and the "inteI-
ligent foreigner, - who escapes that ap-
parently wellnigh inevitable gravItation
TO the american colony - in which
one is shut off from all but superficial
aspects of Partisan life, finds, as French
character becomes better known, a maze
Of contradictions. They cease to seem
such when once the clew has been found,
but till then there is often stupefaction at
the disclosures of daily life, and one
echoes the works of the bewildered
and detected AM erican, who announced
IN the top of n hm the other day:

THE COUNTY COMMISSIONER J.

Disposition of Coburn's Biil-Auditor
Evans Salary Increased.
The county commissioners met yesterday
afternoon with all the members present ex-
cept Anderson.
During the reading of the minutes
O'Keeffe made several changes, one being to
increase the amount of Auditor Evans sal
ary from Sl25 to $3.50 per month. II was in
tended to change the amount on the vouch-
ers at the last meeting but the matter was
overlooked.
When that portion of the minutes as
reached referring to Sheriff Coborn's bill
for boarding and committing city prisoners
and for the transportation OF the insane,
O'Keefe moved TO disallow both items. This
was IN accordance with suggestion from
the sheriff to give him an opportunity to
bring the matter before the courts. AT the
last meeting of the board the question had
been referred to the county attorney for an
opinion. His reply was received, stating
that the item concerning city prisoners
should be disallowed. O'Keeffe moved that
the balance of the amount due should be
placed TO the credit of the sheriff, but Co
burn protested and requested that warrant
be drawn for the amount, which was agreed
to.

He Expresses His Position Regarding
the Street Gar Fight.
The board of public works was in session
Yesterday morning IN relation to applica-
tions by the Motor and Omaha Street Rail-
way companies, for permits to lay tracks on
Lowe avenue from Cunning to Hamilton, and
thence to the military road. There was q
lively debate between the attorneys, in which
MIR. W. l. Kierstead. a member of the board,
was severely criticised by General Gown,
who practically asserted that Kierstead was
acting in behalf of the Omaha Street Rail
way company. In regard to this Mr.. Kier-
stead says:
Orchard Hill and Walnut Hill is to give both
companies an equal right on Lowe avenue
between Cunning and Hamilton streets,
which will give them choice OF routes into
the city, either by way of Farnam or by the
present route down Burt street. For in
stance, at the present time, in order to get to
the court house from Walnut Hill, one is
compelled to go as far east as Fourteenth
and come back to Eighteenth street.
'I am sure that IL thus proposition was left
to The people in those additions. they would,
nine out of every ten, be in favor Of grant
ing this privilege TO both companies. Since
my action in the board this afternoon the
consolidated people have informed me that if
this request is granted they will at once pro-
coed to construct an electric road through to
Hamilton by way of F'arnam. l think IL
they are satisfied with so small portion of
the route they ask for, the motor people GER
tainly ought to be, as they get an equal
privilege on those two blocks and an ex-
elusive privilege on the other,three miles.
II have no property interest in that part
of the city and have no other feeling in this
matter than to give the people the best pos
sible street car facilities. A far as my be-
ing partial to either company is concerned l
certainly have no feeling whatever. l think
DIR. Mercer is entitled to great credit for in
auguratihg a system of fast street car serv-
ice. We have always been friendly, and
three years ago he took an active part in my
nomination and election to the council and
materially assisted me, and certainly would
do nothing to work an injustice. to him. In
making my motion yesterday ] considered
that was presenting a proposition that
would be entirely satisfactory to him."
