Never. since St Paul first began its
existence, has there been such ''cult"
movement as now The women who
two years ago were heart and soul given
over to the mysteries of afternoon teas,
and the management of calling lists, are
this year equally interested in IbSen,
Dante, BTOWding, or the management
of some particular charity, OF woman's
Improvement association, for women, as
well as houses, are no longer desirable
without all the modern Improvements.
To attend lecture on an afternoon is
far more correct than to be seen at the
matinee. There have been lie ctureS on
art, literature, but far more successful
than either, talks on health. More
work in behalf of proper hygienic dress
ing IS done by one lecture than by Il
dozen articles, for the woman does not
live who has not an absolute and abid-
ing faith in her physician.
Apropos. a great many women with
plenty of leisure are never so happy as
when they can say, 80, dear, no! | am
rot able to do ii. y physician pos
itiveIy fOrbidS it," 1t gives a woman
an interest IN life and a deliciously tell
der sympathy Tor herself to be under a
physicians care. especially if there is
nothing really TIE matter with her. In
any gathering feminine, when even
babies and servants pail, as topics of
conversation, interest Immediately re-
wives as soon as one woman begins to
describe her symptoms. The only real
reason all Of Us haven't every ailment
under the sun is that we haven't had
time to think of it. We are sure to find
all the fatal symptoms if we only have
a moments leisure to hunt for them,
and in a gathering of Women-really a
trip through a hospital is absolutely
nothing at all TO the horrors one hears.
1t is a very Inelegant comparison, but
one is always reminded OF the emula-
ton between two urchins with the ON
nipresent youthful invalid toe. Each
always has the worse one.

Lii ruo women of the South we find
more of the graceful languor character
ling nations of the tropical chimes. The
climate invites a peasant life. and
b0unteOuS Nature ObviateS the neces-
sity for mach exertion. The Southern
woman is essentially domestic in her
characterized home, husband and chill
dren are her kingdom and subjects.
little does she bother her head about
Woman's suffrage or political affairs
she wants pleasant home, loving
husband and pretty children.
A daughter of Dixie is fond of admir-
alton. This love is innate and leads to
the flirtations and ''affaires d'amour" 50
universal over our Southland. There is
great literary taste in the South. In
fact, the Southern woman is generally
we'll educated, and those of the higher
classes are most accom- liShed in lam
guages, music and the classics. The
humber of our Southern women who
have recently made themselves prom
inent by their pen proves this. But the
Southern womaI'S tastes are more in
the direction of society than of political
progress, stump speaking and suffrage.
She rarely ever starts out on mis-.
sion'' for the emancipation of her sex.
On the contrary. Home is her only
place. is the universal sentiment here.
While the gayest of girls she makes
good mother. While often the pillar on
which her husband really leans, she is
always expecting from men the chival-
rous attention to her helplessness to
which she has been accustomed from
childhood. Yet while shrinking from
public business there are few who can
take firmer grasp on affairs in neces
Sity than herself.
The Northern woman is strong, CO.
labOrer with man, as rule. not vain.
she is foremost in the ranks of progress
and independence in her everyday life.
Her Southern sister never bothers about
such things. She is a gay girl, a true
and loving woman, finding all her hap
piness in the four words of her empire
of home.

THE NEW HAVEN VERDICT.

Tho burden of responsibility sits no
more heavily on the shoulders OF rail
road directors in consequence Of the YER
dict in the New Haven railroad case.
Tho law Of the state forblds the heat
ing of railroad cars by stoves, and the
prohibition is a wise one in the public
interest. There was no attempt to gain-
say the fact that the law had been per-
s~istently violated in the case OF the New
Haven road and that the violation re-
suited in the worst feature Of the disas-
ter. But the judge directed the jury
that personal participation had not
been proved, and the acquittal of Depew
and his associates followed of necessity.
In the eyes of the bench it was sufficient
rebuttal of the charge that the accused
directors had not personally issued Or
ders that the cars of the New Hagen road
should be heated as they were IN viola
ton of the statute. But the statute,
according to the counsel for the defense,
does not command positive action, 1t
simply forbids certain action on the
part of railroad corporations. The
court took the same view of the matter,
and the legal question was at an end.
The general public, we are inclined to
believe, will find the verdict e%minently
unsatisfactory. There was not one OF
the accused directors who had not for a
long time personally known that stoves
we're used as heating appliances on their
road, or who was not aware that the
practice was a violation of the law. But
they themselves did not issue or execute
the order that led to the commission OF
the act, and there was no proof that
the matter had ever formally come be-
fore them for decision. They knew the
cars of the road were heated by stoves,
but they did not act to cause or prevent
the breach of the statute. Therefore
they stand acquitted. The decision may
be perfectly legal but it is decidedly I'M
fortunate.
The imposition of a fine as the result
of a conviction would have served the
interest of the great travelling public.
1t might have proved to railroad dlrec-
tors as a class that a director ought to
be one who directs, and that acceptance
of office entails some slight share of
personal responsibility. The public
would have been glad to know that the
officials Of wealthy corporations could
not with impunity jeopardize the lives
Of their patrons for the sake Of increased
dividends and a saving of expense. And
an opposite verdict would have taught
the glittering after-dinner speaker of
the corporation a lesson in good taste.
1t would have served to remind that the
disaster, such as he was responsible for,
had other sides than one. He saw in it
only a subject for TESTING remark on the
inconvenience of his own position. He
ought to discover that it meant for the
friends of the victims of a corporations
greed a vast amount of heartache and
pecuniary loss.

ought to have done. 1t gave Butte a di-
rect line east and that was a great thing,
for Butte. 1t should have built q more
direct line from Butte to Helena, and it
made a mistake IN not doing it. And
we think it is mostly wrong in the min
eral land controversy, but time will
straighten that. And SO of all the other
railroads in our state. They are great
civilizers, wealth producers and public
~benefactors. Let us have nor Of them,

recently, II was in the employ of a big min

state of Cohahuila, Mexico. We had with

took a notion to 90 back to Tennessee on a
visit. We hadn't many railroads i'll that
section those days, so he started across
country on horseback to the nearest train,
and returning to the mines sought the same
style of conveyance. Well, one hot
day near Eagle Pass, James ran
into camp of about a
dozen fellows. He was pretty tired and SO
was his horse, SO he accepted the hospitali-
ties of the camp without inquiring who his
hosts might be. They gave him a good
dinner and supper and he enjoyed a good
nights rest. On waking up next morning
rather suddenly. from a kick in the ribs
he found the camp had been surprised by Il
party of men and all his companions of the
night before were under guard. Not q word
was spoken IN either side, and James
hadn't time to ask an explanation. James
and the remainder of the party were stood
up iii line on a ridge. the horsemen dehled
opposite, and each tool a shot. At
eachi discharge a man fell over.
and promptly fell over, rolling Town the
bank until he struck the bushes where he
gave a few apparently last kicks and
stretched out. The shooting party thought
him dead. as all the others were, and made
no examination. In fact they laughed and
enjoyed the sport Of seeing him roll down
the hill. When the horsemen had gone
James got up, and painfully wounded as he
was, walked in a boiling Texas sun fifty
miles to the nearest ranch. There a party
from our mine, carrying a train load of
bullion, ran across him. He got all right
again, but it was a long time before he
found out that he had camped with a band
of horse thieves, who had been surprised
bv a sheritf's posse. Then he understood
the whole situation"

EVERYTHING ELSE OF THE KIND.

r. Il. Bayliss, of the Drum Lummon
company, has a mule at work on that prop
erty which he is willing to back against
anything on four feet for intelligence,
cussedness and kicking, The mule works
on the 4O0-foot level, drawing cars out of
the mine to the dump. Along with the
other mules about the place he is shod once
a month. He submits to the operation
without a protest, merely looking around
at the blacksmith with a quizzical smile on
his placid countenance as if to say, what
a lot of trouble you fellows are taking for
nothing" One day l~ater-never more than
two %days-that mule is barefooted on the
legs. How he does it is a mystery OK
cept that he Just kicks them off. Everybody
knows how a mule can kick when ne gets a
motion on. But this mule has a sort Of
snap kick, which stops the hind feet half
way and allows the shoes to continue on
into indefinite space. The blacksmith has
tried all kinds of styles in mailing on that
mules hind shoes; but no matter, off they
come, and every time they do the mule just
laughs. Why the little fellow objects to
mystery as how he manages to get rid of
Lle SuOeS. IL ID currently DGlleSbu, How
ever, that he has heard the circus was com
ing and thought if his accomplishment be-
came known he would some day
be performing in the sawdust
arena and leave the b%lackness of
the 400 level behind him forever. There is
one man at TIE mine who will never forget
that mule. 1t is q w~ood-hauler. A few
days ago he was standing at the mouth of
the tunnel, when the mule. who was Just
ahead of him, began kicking the air. The
animal was about due to cast a shoe. The
wood hauler didn't know this, SO he stood
there taking in the scene, which he thought
was the funniest be had ever run across.
First thing that wood-hauler knew one of
the face, cutting him terribly across the
nose and under both eyes. The mule mere
ly looked sorry and stopped kicking. The
wood-hauler will be %disigured for life.
Speaking of mules reminds me of that
story Hugh McQuade and Guy Piatt used
to tell. 1t was about the mule which was
at work in the Mullan tunnel during its
construction. One day, 30 the narrators
say, there WAS an explosion that could be
felt almost to Minneapolis. After the de.
bris had settled his harness was found in
fragments, but there wasn't enough of the
mule for a coroner to hold an inquest or
anywhere i'll sight. Returning from the
scene of the accident McQuade and Plat
SO the story ~runs-found thai
mule in the valley half a mil,
from the tunnel, quietly grazing and seem.
ingly happy at having gotten Il half holi,
day. This story Is somewhat old, to b,
sure, but its antiquity precludes the posi-
billty of successful contradiction. Like til,
story of the cherry tree it goes anyhow.
