The character of man, like the char
acter OF people, may be judged by his
own estimation Of a woman. The lower
ne is in the scale of humanity, the less he
amounts to as an individual, the poorer
is apt to be his opinion of her An infe-
rior man is apt to speak of woman pa
tronizingly, if not slightingiy, as mem

mits that their hearts and intentions are
good, intimating that their minds and
acts will not bear scrutinizing. But
man of intellect, capable of understand

seldom accept such Judgment He is

THE ATTAKAPAS REGION AND
THE FLORIDA PARISHES

The following item is taken from
the Questions and Answers" column
of the Times-Dcmocrat:
LATE ARRIVAL: Which parishes Of
Louisiana constitute the so-called .sAt.
takapas Region" and whence is thi,
name derived? 2. What parishes are
called the FLORIDA Parishes" and
why are they SO called?
1. The Attakapas region of Louisiana
has no clearly defined limits The name
lis applied to large and fertile section of
Southwestern Louisiana, which. though
often mentioned in commercial reports.
form no accurately known subdivision of
the State. The name comes from the At
takapas Indians, whose origin is lost in
the mists of early American antiquity.
Their-nam which means man eaters, !"
was first applied to the tribe of Choctaws.
The Attakapas were first made known to
the French by the adventures of Belle
isle, who was accidentally left on shore
during one of the early expeditions. and
remained among those Indians for some
time. In the year 1903 more than 100 of
the Attakapas were dispersed through
Southwestern Louisiana principall7 up
on Bayou Vermilion In less than TWEEN
ty years thereafter they ceased to be emu
meratcd, having entirely disappeared.
Their language was peculiar, abounding
in harsh monosylables.

France some years before This would
have made the eastern boundary of Lou

CLIFF. JEWELLERS FOUND.

'Po0i"i w tHe Ctty 1teHI IRON
Deming, New Mexico, June Sth, saws
All doubts as to the existence Of
the cliff and cave dwellers, concern
ing which there has been SO much
controversy for many years, to say
nothing of an expenditure from va
rious sources Of over half million
dollars In efforts to prove that the race
was extinct, have been set as rest.
Lieut.. Schwatka, the noted explorer.
and who has had charge of America 5
expedition into Mexico, has arrived
here. During his trip he has made
discoveries that in an archaeological
sense are the most important of the
present century. His party has been
successful beyond all expectations, and
especially in Southwestern chihuahua.
Here living cliff and cave dwellers
were found in great abundance, and
as wild as any of the Mexican tribes
before the Cortez conquest. The
The abodes in which they live are ex-
actiy similar to the old abandoned
cliff dwellings of Arizona and New
Mexico, concerning which there hes
been so much speculation and so much
money spent in investigation 1t was
almost impossible to get near them.
SO wild and timid were they, being
moreover exceedingly frightened at
armed white men. The cliff dwellers
OF the Barranca del Lobre are most of
them stark naked, wearing only, as
Schwartka says, sc wild look and
pair of raw hide sandals" Upon the
of white men they fly to
their caves or cliffs by notched sticks
placed against the face of the cliffs if |
too steep, although they can ascend
vertical stone faces if there are the
slightest crevices for their fingers or
toes. At one point woman entirely
devoid of clothing fed to river bank |
upon being surprised. Being unable
to cross, she climbed notched stick
twenty feet high, and then assembled
cliff fully fifty feet
high, the alternate hard and soft strata
forming inches an inch or two in
tepth which she had utilized in climb
ng. A lot of children upon being
fled to the rocks and low
brush like so many young quail. The
lotched stick or monkey ladder lead
ng to the cliff dwellings, as seen in so
many places in the Sierra Mavra,, !
nay account for the cliff dwellings in
Arizona and New Mexico being pro-
bounced inaccessible, the sticks having
oiled away and left the buildings un- {
pproachable to the discoverers.
The cliff dwellers now discovered t

THE Low COMMODITY TARIFF.
1t Will Go Into Effect to the Missouri
River on ,July g.


CHICAGO July 2.-TSpecial Telegram to
THE BEE. The low commodity tariff pro-
posed by the Burlington 81 Northern will go
into effect to st. Paul on all roads July 5.
The same tariff will be put IN to Missouri
river points by the Chicago, st. Paul s. Kan
sas City July s. After stormy session of
the Western Freight association to-day, all
the st. Paul roads agreed to adopt the com
modify tariff. AS soon as this decision was
reached, General Manager Egan, of the
Chicago, st. Paul & Kansas City, announced
that the same rates would be made by his
road to st. Joseph. After the meeting Mr.
Egan said: "We will put the commodity
rates into effect to the Missouri river July
So This statement was made posi-
lively and without any reservation. OF
course, the rates will be promptly met by
every other western line, and the anomalous
situation will be presented of all lines west
of Chicago and east of the Missouri, appar-
entity as a free will Offering, reducing their
rates over 80 per cent. The amount lost will
be far greater than the gross earnings on
westbound through traffic have been hereto
fore. Had the Chicago and St. Paul lines
kept up rates and allowed the Burlington 81
Northern to meet lake competition, local
rates would everywhere be intact, and the
break could not have extended. west of the
eastern line of Iowa. The Western Freight
association will still further consider the
matter, but only with reference TO the appli-
cation of the rates TO Missouri river points.
The Burlington &c Northern and
the Chicago st. Paul ~ Kansas
City representatives have left for their
homes, so there is. no possibility that the
rates will not go into effect.
The passenger department of the Central
Traffic association to-day agreed to adopt
rates of one first-class limited fare for the
national encampment of the G. A. II. at
Milwaukee in August. 1t was also decided
! not to grant reduced rates for harvest excur-
sions.
The executive board of the Inter- State
| Commerce Railway association to-day rem
dered decision denying the request of the
Chicago, st. Paul & Kansas City for the es-
| taolishment of Peoria rates from st. Paul to
| ST. Joseph on alcohol. 1t was the view of
! the board that the application of Chicago
| rates from st. Paul would not be unfair, and
| such application was recommended.
