Sister Phoebe holds on to that worlds
fair secretary's tripod like grim death to a
yaller mule. Miss Cousins is an advanced
woman and believes in woman's rights and
other progressive ideas. So it is not to be
expected that she would allow such trife
as the unanimous election of another woman
to stand between her and a coveted Office.

Louisville's big bank failure turns out to
have SO very crooked an aspect that the
members of the firm have all been arrested
on suspicion of a conspiracy to defraud
depositors Of the s750,000 missing. 1t GER
tainly has a very suspicious look when a
bank can fail for such an enormous sum in
deposits without having dollar of assets to
show. But it is especially hard that the
poor immigrants who trusted the firm
should be robbed of their small savings.

Reports from South America state that
President Balmaceda precipitated the
Chilean revolution by attempting the role

popular anywhere in America. There is
something In the atmosphere that is incom-

tyranny. Hence the sound drubbing that
Senior Balmaceda is now receiving.

Telegraphic advices from Tennessee tell
of a girl at the town Of Milan who encour~
aged two rival suitors for her hand and
amorous favor to fight fisticuff bout
to decide which should have her and which
she should accept Apparently there was
no feeling involved. Personal qualities
and mental traits were of far less import
than an excess of physical strength and re-
morseless brutality. In that view of the
case an over-grown bulldog or vicious
jackass would probably have suited her
taste better than either of the combatants,
and the one who got her was really to be
pitied if it were not that his tendency was
equally depraved. Love is reduced to
brute passion i'll that way.

that the right of way privileges would be
