The Club of the Future.

A growing opinion is that the coming
club will be the mixed one, where men
and women will study together the ques-
tons that present themselves and work
out together the problems of the day.
And this, it is asserted, will not be a
consolidation of the distinctively WON
EMS and mems clubs as they now exist,
but merging Of the best elements Of
each into fresh organizations.
Following this mixed club sentiment
it is not surprising to find Mr.. Stead in
London journal advocating scoop
erative homes for the unmarried" BY
this he means that the cooperative
homes for spinsters and those for bache-
lors should combine their housekeeping
arrangements into a sort of idealized
boarding house, where Mrs. Grundy
would be appeased with IAN experienced
lady housekeeper" and where companies
Of detached or unattached men and
women could find congenial acquaint-
ance. The limitations Of the word con-
genial Mr.. Stead insists upon and ad-
mits that this matter of selection is the
weak point in his scheme. The motion
in any form grows out of recognized
drifting apart of the sexes under the
changed condition Of things. York

1.-THE incident often illustrated in
plays Of a man carrying off redhot
stove has no basic TRUTH" said Halman
Carmody. Still the idea seems so pre-
posterous that people never fail to laugh
at the incident when placed before them
on the stage. The nearest theft that
ever knew to parallel it occurred not so
many years ago when an habitual Grim
inal in New York city was given six
months in the penitentiary for stealing a
timers stove. The evidence proved that
the criminal had record which included
everything from the theft of a paper of
pins and a wagon wheel down to water
gauge of steam engine and the stove
in question.
1.-THE timers stove was shown in court.
1t was very old fashioned, large and
ungainly looking affair, which one might
imagine would be the last thing that
would attract the attention of even a
chronic burglar. The top was cylindrical
and perfectly open for the purpose of
draft. To this top was attached the
handle. Now, the stove had good fire
in it and had been set out on the pave
ment TO obtain extra fame The thief
must have found it a very hot object to
handle, and yet he ran with it dozen
blocks before he was caught and arrest

THE COUNTY PRINTING

AS will be seen by reference to the
local columns of today's issue, the bids
for county printing were opened by the
commissioners at their session yester-
day afternoon, the bid of the WORLD,
the weekly edition of the Fairhaven
HERALD, being more than so per cent
below that of the Weekly Reveille.
Notwithstanding this fact the commits.
sioners have hesitated in awarding the
contract to the WORLD, one of the
members offering the argument that as
there was a clause in the statutes to the
effect that circulation is to be consid-
cred in awarding bids" and as the
Reveille had produced its subscription
list and the WORLD and Express had
neglected to do so, the bid of the Rev.
ellie should be accepted.
The intent Of the law, in the statute
referred to- is perfectly clear, and as
may be readily seen is not applicable in
the present case. The clause in its en-
tirety says that papers shall have been
In existence for at least six months and
must have a bona fide circulation, and
that such circulation WILDE considered
in the matter Of the bids. In other
words, it is to give encour-
agement to legitimate newspaper enter
prise and to prevent papers from start
ing into existence simply to secure the
public printing, with the prospect of
ceasing publication should it not re-
ceive the contract desired. Such of
course can have no application in the
present instance. The WORLD is a
well established journal of wide and
general circulation in Whatcom county,
and to offer the argument that simply
because the Reveille brought in its SUBJ
scription list with large showing, the
so per cent less bid of the WORLD must
be set aside in favor of the Revelle will
not be accepted by the taxpayers of the
county as being wise financial legis-
lation.
The county commissioners issued a
call for bids in which nothing was said
concerning the number of subscribers
each paper had on its list. In all good
faith the WORLD submitted its bid in
response to such call, the bid being
over so per cent below that of the
Reveille, and considerably less than
that of the Express. AS question of
simple justice the printing contract
should be awarded the WORLD,
statement which the better
Judgment of the residents of
Whatcom county will bear out.

An Irishman'a Excusa.

During a season of exceedingly cold
weather in frontier army post the
commanding officer issued an order to
have limited rations of whisky issued to
his men.
All went well until one day soldier,
an Irish-American, was arrested and
placed in the guardhouse for intoxica-
ton. The quantity Of whisky allotted
to each man was insufficient to produce
such a result, and brief investigation
which followed developed the fact that
the soldier had stolen the rations of a
comrade.
In course of time the matter was
brought to the attention of the COM
handing officer, and the private was Or
dered before him for trial upon the hei-
nous charge of stealing.
Pat was very much downcast when he
appeared before the officer, but was still
In possession of his faculties and native
wit. He denied having stolen the whis-
ky, but frankly admitted drinking the
double allowance and his subsequent
drunkenness.

THE SCHOOL ELECTIONS

In the cities of Fairhaven and New
Whatcom elections were held yester-
day for school directors, with the re.
suits as announced in the local columns
OF today's issue. Though without
financial remuneration, and entirely
an office of honor, the position Of school
director is one Of the most importantin
the gift of the reople, and the election
OF such officer should be lifted above
every consideration, political and other
wise, save that Of pure merit and fit
ness for the Office. 1t is not political
In the partisan sense, nor is
1t position in which any
interest should prevail as q
motive in the selection of the
director, save that of the influence to
surround the children attending
the schools of the district, and upon
whose character Of growth and devel-
opment depends the future of the city
in which they find home. 1t is pre-
sumable that in the votes cast yester-
day, in both cities, the intelligence and
best Judgment of the voters were ex-
ereised. 1t is certainly gratifying to
know that the ladies of Fairhaven
manifested so much interest in the
election and discharged the response
bilities committed to them with such
becoming grace. The decided majorities
given to the successful candidates were
complimentary in the highest degree,
and Indicate the confidence of a large
and representative part of the COM
munity 1t is to be hoped that the
gentlemen receiving this honor will APP
preciate the responsibilities entrusted to
their care, and will conscientiously de-
vote their best ability and talents to-
wards maintaining the high standard
heretofore enjoyed by the public schools
Of Fairhaven and New whatcom.

In Good Form.

A new series of pretentious books on
manners has been issued by New York
publishing house. This will be good
news to perplexed public, which has
long waited for something new in the
etiquette line. Among the rules laid
down is one that if guest arrives too late
to dress for dinner he should request that
dinner be served in his own room. This
is rather painful news, but as there
seems no way to get around it, why, our
readers will please govern themselves
accordingly. The old injunction is re-
peated that engagement rings should al
ways be diamond solitaires. 1t doesn't
say So but if young man cannot afford
to buy diamond for his intended he
must beg, borrow or steal one. The rule
seems to be infexible.
Among the other valuable matters in
this "Good Form" series is an able ar
ticle on when to carry an umbrella.
This will supply long felt want, and
an eager public will be glad to know
that an umbrella may now be taken if it
looks like rain without jeopardizing So
cial position or violating the code of Ell
quette. No provision is made in case it
should chance to clear off and the sun
come out, but it is assumed that in this
case the proper thing is to throw the
umbrella into the gutter, for "good
form" especially forbids carrying one
in fair weather.
Nothing is said against carrying an
umbrella horizontally, but as this is a
trivial matter and not worth mentioning
in book on etiquette it is presumed
there is no objection to doing SO in the
same old way-with merry swing and
giving the surrounding pedestrians the
usual social jabs for politeness' sake.
There is much more valuable matter
in this series of books on the manners
of good society, but these few bits taken
at random give fair scope of its char
acter.

Different Schools of Music.

Each generation, tired of the outworn
devices which furnishes its predecessor
with excitement, demands newer and
stronger effects to stimulate its emotions.
As the devices Of the classicist grow pale,
the listening public demands a romantic
school with new forms and strange pro-
gressions. The romantic school would,

An Eskimo Trick.

The short, chunky, wooden looking
Eskimo men wheedle silver out of the
populace by playing a game requir-
ing considerable skill. This consists
in lifting donated nickel or dime out
of the ground by the crack of whip.
The whips these chaps use are like an
ordinary bull goad, with a number Of
leather lashes added to the total length
of "a feet. They shoot these long lashes
along the ground like snakes straight at
a coin set edge up in the dirt, and as
each tip reaches the spot it curls with a
snap like pistol shot and likely as not
lifts the coin high in the air. 1t goes to
whatsoever gets it in that way.-Chicago
Cor. New York Sun.

They are SO playful on the South Side
in Chicagol Peter Roberts of Lyons,
Kan, was walking in that locality the
other day when his hat was grabbed by
a negress, who, as usual, ran into hall
way. Mr.. Roberts followed, when two
other female thugs seized him and re-
heved him of $3.50. If the Chicago po-
lice would show any disposition to cope
with these burly amazons, it might in
crease the attendance at the fair.

Vagaries and Victuals.

Eating is getting to be decidedly haz
ardous if we accept the dicta Of the
scientific and unscientific food reformers,
Just as conservative people had about
made up their minds to eschew flesh
foods as tending to deprave the mind
and subject the body to the liability of
a variety of diseases learned authority
says that meat, fruit and nuts are the
only things fit to eat. He proves his
case, too, if the jury be of the lay order.
Then we betake ourselves to flesh and
fruit and would to nuts also except
they are indigestible. But, alack and
alas, another school of wiseacres assures
us that fruit causes eczema and dullness!
1t causes psoriasis also, which must be
something terrible if the spelling be any
criterion. As for bread, vegetables and
milk, they are considered awful and not

Cyclone Scatterers.

Secretary of Agriculture Morton is in
vestigating the subject of cyclone ami
hilators as championed by DIR. c. R.
Carpenter. The great Mississippi and
Missouri valleys are the cyclone band
ing centers, and DR.. Carpenter would
have stations at various points in these
localities. These stations would be high
in air, so as to command good view Of
the surrounding country, and they would
be manned by experienced cyclone OBJ
servers. Strong marine glasses could be
used at night so that the watchers might
be prepared to give all cyclones a warm
reception. The weather bureau would
also be connected so that advance infor-
nation could be had if required. The
practicability of this idea for lombard
ing an agent of destruction that is con-
stantly becoming more formidable and
terrorizing is extremely doubtful, but
some such experiments as suggested are
likely to be made.
Cyclones are simply eddies formed by
the meeting of opposing currents of air.
They are of brief duration and follow d
narrow path, often only 100 feet wide
They seem to be of more frequent occur
renee than in earlier years. Whether
they really are more common, or whether
an increase of population in the localities
where they are most destructive and bet
ter facilities for getting the news make
them seem so, is difficult question to
