root of the nose with cross formed of
several straight lines of small stars
running close together These tattoo
marks are dark-blu color. Algerian
women are also considerably tattooed
on the backs of their hands, their fore
arms and chests, as well as on their
shoulders, their wrists being especially
adorned with drawings representing
bracelets and flowers strung together.
As a rule, women are the operators,
and it is principally on children be-
tween the ages of seven and eight that
they have to exercise their art. They
use sometimes a needle, but more fire.

States are among the choicest dead
beats in this community.
The Worlds Fair Committee has
proven to be a veritable windfall to
them, and they have hung onto its

Col. Davis, Edwin Walker, and most
of the committee now in Washington
are high-minded gentlemen, who are
spending their own money to help the
great city of the West.
The great city itself generous in the

for its enterprise. finds itself going
into the real fight for the fair with less
cash money than any of its opponents.

An American lady who recently
visited Count Tolstoi, the great Rus
sian novelist, complains that he is not
quite consistent in practicing what he
breaches. He holds that there is
something degrading in the mere hand
ling of money and property, and ac-
cordingly delegates to the Countess
the control of the household and the
entire management of his pecuniary
affairs She observed however, that
he has a luxurously furnished study,
and horses, carriages and servants at
his command although they are his
wife's. On the whole the great man
would appear to have been rather a
disappointment.

After Saturnalia of Extravaganza
Chicago Has Less Money at Wash
ingtOn than Either New York
or st. Louis.

Chicago people need not feel dread
fully disappointed if the Worlds Ex
position does not come here. But If
such an unhoped-for thing should oc-
cur, then look out for squalls
There has been too much funny busi
ness about our Worlds Fair Commit
tee from the start, and too little genu-
inc work.
Chicago never does anything by
halves, and when the fair was first
talked of there was spontaneous
raising of money and a grand unity of
action among business men.
So far as the money is concerned
there has never been any stoppage to
the flow of it.
Week after week the golden stream
kept pouring in on the committee, and
with the same easy faculty it has
been
Pouring out
But pouring out where?
That's the rub!
Well, there are said to have been
large expenditures of money to Secre-
tary Cragin and equally large ex-
penditures to f. r. Jeffery, and gen
erous disbursements to Tom, Dick, and
Harry, for alleged services, until the
committee to bring the fair here goes
down to Washington with far less
money to use at the capital than either
New York or st. Louis.
How do the people like this picture 2
They will see more of it before this
Worlds Fair business is over.
The business men Of Chicago have
not been stingy. They have given
freely Of their money and their time
toward this enterprise
More than that
4 number of them have given freely
of the oneyand the time of their poor
employees.
II is well-known fact that many
concerns forced the working people in
their employ TO contribute money
toward the Worlds Fair fund. And
how has the money raised iu this way
been spent?
II is said that number of person.

The tiger still remains in Chicago.
The fact is that the gamblers do not
know whether the police are in earnest
or not

from the Mayor in the first place they
might put some reliance in the state

The CHICAGO EAGLE.
The police department was directed
to act in the matter not by the
Mayor, who, as chiet magistrate Of the
city, should have given such orders, bdt
by the City Council.
The Pond resolution shamed the adj
miuistratiou into acting in the prem
ises.
And how has it acted
A half dozen raids have been made,
and in almost every instance the VIC
Tins have been houses not controlled
by the gamblers trust
Hankins notorious place was raided
one night, for effect as much as any
thing else. OF the army of inmates
one hundred and seventy were permit
ted to escape while only seventy were
bundled into patrol-wagons and taken
to the lock-up.
One house which has escaped raiding
is at l7G South Clark street, the old

1t was into this house that some
police officers went with some friends
to gamble, in the month of October.

A NOVEL method of determining the
temperature of the air at great heights
has beer proposed by a German
physicist, and is to be adopted by the
Berlin Society for Ballooning. Small
balloons are sent up at night, each
provided with a thermometer arranged
to give flashes of light by the closing
of an electric circuit when certain
temperatures are reached. A so-called
"photo-theodolite" is affected by the
light, and gives Photographic record
of the temperatures, while the CORE
responding attitudes are indicated in
mechanical way. A more accurate
jdea of the rate of decrease of tenn
perature with height is expected from
this method.
