IN A BAD FIX.
Predicament of a Pretty Young Cir
in New York.

Predicament of Pretty Young Girl
in New York.
New York girls are nothing if they are
not inconsistent. While they exclaim in
horror at the way their Western sisters
are allowed to drive to the theater, or
even to ball, with young men, they
think nothing of taking cab from a
hotel or livery stable and driving alone
IN the evening from one place to another;
and yet annoying contretemps occur not
infrequently.
Fancy my predicament one evening
last winter" said pretty girl to friend.
Il had an engagement to dine with Mrs.
L, and sent the maid over to the Bre-
WORT House for a cab, as I always do, and
drove up to her house. AS / ran up the
steps cabby drove Oft, and was left quite
alone. Stupid of me- l said to myself,
for it was quite dark, mot to tell him to
wait till got in;' but here the door opened
and l walked into the hall. What is it
you want?' said a tall grenadier of a
woman, who had opened the door, as
threw off my cloak. I am dining with
Mrs. f L said with great dignity.
Don't live here said the Amazon, lacon-
ically, and somehow or other she man

peration. DON'T know was her rejoin-

less and homeless, alone in the street, in
full evening dress. Looking about me in
great tribulation, / was overjoyed to see
the friendly blue and red lights of a drug
store at the corner, and gathering up my
skirts I fairly 'bolted,' as the boys say,
into the shop. Have you,' l gasped, as
hurried in, quite terrified, my eyes blink
ing in the light. oh, have you diction-
ary?"
GAS the clerk tried hard not to laugh 1
realized my mistake. "A directory, you
mean, miss?' he said politely. Yes, of
course, directory and ready to cry,
explained my situation. An older man
came forward and nothing could have
been nicer than their manners. The adj
dress was found and the house proved to
be in the next street about a block off. a
messenger boy was sent for, who escorted
me thither in safety and / arrived only a
little late after ALL"
Moral-Always tell your cabman to
wait until you are in the right house.

HAwoRTH's soUTHERN TRIP.

Joseph Haworth received quite an ova-
ton in New Orleans last week, where he
produced 1.-THE Leavenworth Case" and
''St. Mare" to crowded houses. The in
tense, studious and careful young actor of
the Northern Lake region was at first
carefully watched by his Southern coun-
trymen, so totally different from them
in earnest energy and quick movement.
but it took him but a few minutes to
awaken their interest, and before the cur
tain fell he had aroused an enthusiasm
seldom shown in the Crescent City. Mr.
Haworth's sojourn in the South has been
exceeding pleasant and his business has
been excellent throughout. The people
in the South have given him warm and
generous welcome, and he now turns his
face with regret toward the North, with
promises to return with the odors OF
orange flowers and spice that breathe
like airs from Paradise. Mr.. Haworth
has. by the way, developed great Curl
osity about alligators, and, during the
day, has often watched the gray old fell
lows slide into the still BAYOU.

The lower Columbia river and lower
Yakima valleys are now beginning to
develop some Of their wonderful re-
sources. Prunes and peaches, hops,
alfalfa, and every variety Of small fruits,
wherever they have been planted are
grown in prolific abundance. On the
farm Of Dr.. William Elmer, five miles
below Pasco the writer had the pleasure
Of seeing an alfalfa field, only eleven days
old all beautifully set to alfalfa. The
Doctor has about forty acres Of potatoes,
some ten acres in peanuts and sweet
potatoes, together with Q great many
varieties Of garden products. He has
about so acres prepared for grapes,
peaches and prunes. He intends putting
out about five acres In grapes, principally
the Muscat and Flaming Toka, Us these
two varieties do remarkably well in this
locality. The farm Of Frank Schuneman
ct the mouth Of the Yakima river, Ia in
q very excellent state Of cultivation,
about 900 acres in alfalfa, 50 acres In
fruit and vegetables. The farms Of Judge
Wilgus, Of ProsSe., and also those Of
John Ross, W. H. Burrell, John Terrell
and Fred Warnecke, all look remarkably
well, considering the fact that one year
ago they were dry sage brush lands.

PROPER AGE FOR MARRIAGE.


Probably - long as women marry and
are given in marriage the discussion will
Roon asto the proper age to wed. ItSeems

msy be that Tho maidens themselves
haye removed that signi6cspt milestone,

THR state Of South Dakota has Of late
been overwhelmed by people from other
states seeking for divorce. The reason
for this appears to be not so much the
liberality Of the statute as to causes for
which divorce can be granted as the
brevity Of the period Of residence-ninety
days-aiter which an application can be
6led. The obvious remedy for the evil
would be TO increase the required period
to at least one year, and then TO require
some evidence that the petitioner Is not q
resident for divorce purposes only.
