a CHANGE OF HEART.
Missouri River Lines Now willing to Pay
Commissions.

The lines west of the Missouri river have
sent out a schedule of commissions which
they agree to pay to a number of Western
points. The allowances run from 25 cents
up to 81 75. The Denver commission has
been reduced % cents, and Portland and San
Francisco are not or the list.
Passenger men were glad to see it, but
they don't understand the move. Some
time ago the same roads decided not to pay
commissions, and the huStlers wonder what
influence caused the change of front. Mean
while the Alton is waging a winning fight
for commissions in Central Traffic Associa-
tion territory. 1t does look as if the agents
are too strong to be turned down. They
want their share for work done.

BUN IN ON SUSPICION.
A Pair of Young Philadelphians Whose
Stories Were Not Clear.

Two young men smoking cigarettes and
well dressed stepped up to officer Jack on
Market street last night and asked if they
could get lodgings for the night in the police
station. They said they were brothers, had
just come from Philadelphia and were look
ing for work. The officer thought the story
suspicious and took them to Central station,
where Inspector McAleese interrogated
them. They gave their names as William
Robb, Jr., and Moses Silverstine.
Robb admitted to having served time in
the Philadelphia workhouse, and claimed
relationship with a well-known resident of
this city. The Inspector will investigate the
stories.

AFTER UNLICENSED CANNES.
The Dog Catchers to Begin Operations
Early This Morning

The Dog Catchers to Begin Operations
Early This Morning.
The dog catchers will this morning make
their initial bow to q thankful public. At 8
O'Clock the canine patrol wagon will leave
the Kuch's Hill pound, and the capture of
unlicensed animals will begin. In the wagon
will be a driver and two catchers, the latter
provided with dog-nets. They will make a
tour of portion of the city, and every poor
beast not possessing lease of life from the
Department of Public Safety will have a free
ride and glimpse Of a water tank, into
which his neglected frame will be plunged
unless an owner comes quickly to the rescue.
Licenses will, of course, be issued at any
time hereafter" said superintendent of Po-
lice Gamble Weir yesterday, "but in the
meantime dogs without the regulation tag
will be in danger of the pound. Another
thing which people do not generally under
stand is that owners of unlicensed dogs are
liable to prosecution and fine. Ii dog is
captured without q tag the owner may
within As hours get it out, hut he is then
open to prosecution for violsting the ordi-
nance in not procuring license Some
people imagine they can keep their dogs
locked up so that the catchers cannot dis
cover them and thus escape paying the
license fee. But all such can be sued, fined
and made to take out a license also.'
The pound on Ruch's Hill, with its cages
and drowning apparatus is all ready for use
and it will probably have some occupants
before night.

THE NAPE OF THE NECK.
A Point That Many Women Entirely
Neglect.

N
Neglect.
Very few women know how impor-
tant the nape of the neck is. If there is
one point Of the body that the average
girl neglects and the wise beauty cares
for, it is this spot.
sWhv, there is nothing" said a
gorgeous example of the sex, that
finally completes a beautiful woman S
triumph as does the nape of her neck.
If the line is graceful, if the skin is
pure and the small, accidental rings OF
hair that fall there are artistically man
aged. the spell that this part If wom-
an exerts over a man is tremendous. l
must say that few women have good
napes. A girl who always wears her
dresses cut high to her hair will usually
be dark and unattractive there. There S
nSthingl ike the air to purify the skin.
and the more a girl let's her neck catch
the breezes the fairer it will get. This
is not generally believed, but LET
any woman ask herself if the
few dark spots on her are not
lust where the skin has been kept con-
stantlv hot and covered. Well, the
nape of the neck Is peculiar IN this re-
gard To bc white it must be kept free
of woolens and the hair Once given a
good skin the rest is easy. OF course,
the neck shows to the best advantage
when the hair Is brushed up and away
from it. but there should be some
tinv little stray thistle-downs Of hair
falling away from the rest These
must be natural, mind. or, at least. just
separated and curled with the fingers
Oh. the horror OF the girl who ha:
curIed that part Of her hair with m
iron. and. oh. the crime Of the girl wht
has made a bang there. If the hair l.
skilltully managed and the skin white
then the only thing desired Is the goo'
line. A woman who presses her chi1

have a good line at the neck The chr
must be raised little and the head car

This gives a perfect angle from just DC
