BELGIUM'S BIG GAS BILL.

The people of Belgium on May 1,
1898, put their clocks back seven
teen minutes to conform to the time
of the Greenwich meridian, but they
still go to bed at the same hour by
the clock as they did before the
change. A Belgian who used co seek
his couch punctually at 8 p. m. Bel
gian time now hops into bed at 8 p.
m. Greenwich time. But s. p. m.
Greenwich time is 8 II p. m. Belgian
time; so that the Belgian really goes
to bed seventeen minutes later than
he did before. The change of clocks
made no difference to the sun. AS a
result of all this the gas bill of the
nation has increased $1,00O,000 in
fifteen months, the nation sitting up
so much later into the night. When
the truth is known there will doubt
less be movement for going back
to the old time, in the interest of
economy. 1t will be forcibly resisted,
of course, by the gas companies,
who are strongly suspected of being
at the bottom of the time-changing
business, not only in Belgium but
else where.

A "LADY COWBOY"

In Pratt county, Dakota, lives
Gertrude Petan, who is known
among the residents of that neighbour
hood as the lady cowboy" Her
father owns a ranch and large
number of cattle, and much of the
care of these devolves upon his
eighteen year-old daughter. Dressed
in the fashion prevalent among cow
boys, and wearing a wide-brimmed
sombrero and long gauntlet gloves,
she rides all day about the ranch,
mounted on the widest broncho, TAX
ing care Of the cattle as well as any
man could do, even rescuing them
when they are mred along the
streams where they Craze. Her
duties frequently take her thirty or
forty miles from home, and she has
full charge of all the cattle on her
fathers nch.-[Harper's Bazaar.

DECLINE OF MARRIAGE.

Miss Susan b. Anthony is quoted
as saying that we are on the eve of
an era OF unmarried women. The
grounds for her opinion are that un-
der modern social conditions young
women are becoming more and more
self-dependent. The conclusion she
draws, however, is not quite evil
dent. The assumption that seli-sup-
port on the part OF young women
causes them to regard mar .Iage with
increasing disiavor implies that they
have sought marriage in the past
for sordid and selfish purposes.
This is a Misrepresentation. 1t 10
nores the influence of affinity and
affection, which have generally die
tated matrimonial alliances. The
most that can be said OF the general
dependence of young women in the
past is that it has narrowed in a
measure the natural choice of her
heart. Self-help in young women
means simply more freedom for the
NHNiNioN w tSlidCuNlGS. 1t
is absurd to say that such freedom
checks or smothers natural instincts.
Its effects is just the reverse unless
counteracted by other influences 1t
gives the full scope to the affections.
1t makes ill-surted unions less prob
able. 1t places young women as re-
CARDS social relations on a level with
young men.
Facts bear out this conclusion.
Marriage may be entered upon at a
later stage of life now than formerly,
but among the masses of the Amer
lean people it is as common as ever
II marriage has lessened in any ma
terial degree at all, or if there is a
growing aversion to it clearly mark
ed, it will be found among the wealthy
classes who are governed by So
cial ambitions or among young men
who are either unable to support
families or are anxious to make a
brilliant match" That intelligent,
self-supporting young women show,
as rule, any such Discrimination, is
nowhere manifesto Minneapo lis

A ROYAL HOUSEHOLD.

Whitaker's Almanac for 1898 con-
tains a vast amount of useful in
formation. Some of the details re-
lating to the Queens household are
very curious. The lord steward re-
ceives $4,000 year for his services,
as does also the lord chamberlain.
The examiner of plays draws $500
per annum the bargemastef receives
$50; the keeper of the swans gets
$50; the pages of the black stairs,
$3.50; the pages of the presence,
5000; pages men, f100; royal
housekeepers, e120; the master of
the Queens band, $500; physicians
in ordinary, 5000; dentist to the
household, $40; Poet Laureate, f72 j;
clerk of the closet, chapel royal
bishop of Rochester), 81. The
master of the horse is a very i'm
portant parsonage indeed, receiving
$500. The equerries in ordinary
draw $500 TO 5000. The bed
chamber women get $500. Some of
the titles sound strange to American
ears, as: Gentleman usher of black
rod, painter in ordinary, surveyor of
pictures, master of the music, Her
Majesty's Dody-guard of yeomen of
the guard, SERGEANT trumpeter,
hereditary grand almoner, lady
rider, master of the buckhounds,
whippers-in, acting mistresses of the
robes, groom of the robes, Lord
Warden of the stanneries, and groom
of the stole household of H. r. H.
the Prince of Wales). These posi-
tons, in many cases, are filled by
titled noblemen and ladies of high
degree.

WHAT JEANNE DARE DID.

Whatever else is uncertain, this at
least is clear, the maid of Orleans
possessed military genius of the
highest order. She had the supreme
eiits of great commanders; the tech
meal mastery of the art OF directing
artillery FIRE, of planning campaigns,
and the gift of foreseeing their exact
duration and result. That she had
these gifts there is no dispute. The
ablest OF the French generals formally
testified under oath to the extraor-
binary ability she displayed in war.
The Duke d'Alencon made the cam
paign of the Loire at her side, and
said other, in everything except the
making of war she was as simple as
any other young girl. But in war she
was very skillful, either in the bear
ing Of the spear or in mastering all
army, in appointing the order of
battle, or in the disposing of artil-
lery. All were astounded to see her
display the skill and foresight of
captain with the experience OF
twenty or thirty years of service
But they admired above all her use
OF artillery, in which she exhibited
consummate ability
For an illiterate maiden of eigh-
teen, who had never sat in saddle
or worn armour, to command an
army of 10000 men with such
brilliant success as to destroy the es-
tablished power of the English in
France, was clearly an achievement
OF the first importance, the sto-
~ of which has an incompatible
fascination for the modern world.
The English in France at the begin
nlng of 1929 bore to the French
people a relation similar to that Of
the Germans at the beginning of
1871. Talbot, the English Achilles
OF that earlier day, was as great a
military authority as Moltke in the
later one. The victories of Poictus
and Agincourt were as decisive as
Metz and Sedan. After war of
hundred years the dominance OF Eng
land had been accepted almost as a
degree Of destiny. In 1921 a solemn
treaty had made over the crown of
France to the English king. English
garrisons occupied Paris, Rouen and
Bordeaux. English authority was
supreme over more territory than
the Germans covered in 1871, in their
most venturesome marches. The
French had neither money nor men,
sovereign nor prestige. Their nom
inal king was vacillating and incapa-
bic. His councillors dreaded success
even more than defeat. Yet out of
the midst of this hopeless prostra-
ton Jeanne arose, and in the course
OF a single year she transformed
everything. She delivered Orleans,
crowned the king, broke the prestige
OF English victory, and recreated and
regenerated France. Her work was
not done in corner: it was accom-
pished under the eyes Of the world.
1t gave an immediate and definite
change to the whole course Of the his
torical development of two of the
greatest of civilized nations. 1t is
living and palpable force at this day.

A GOOD WORD FOR OWLS AND
HA WKS.

More than 100000 was expended
by the state of Pennsylvania in
bounties for the seal ps of noXious
enemies of farmers. DR.. Battles of
Girard writes in the Examiner that
fully $65,000, or about two-thirds
OF the whole sum, was paid for the
destruction of two of the farmers
friends, hawks and owls. 1t was
proved conclusively to the legislature
by naturalsts and ornithologists
that where hawks or owls destroyed
one chicken or song bird, they de-
Stroyed 25 mice, shrews and moles.
In fact, the examination of hundreds
OF stomachs of these birds de-
monstrated that these small vermin
constituted most of their living.
1t is surprising that farmers are so
lamentably ignorant of the value Of
the hawk and owl. The owl, being
nocturnal bird, is especially fitted
to pursue the smaller rodents, whose
Tavages upon field, grain, root and
orchard are SO we'll known that
farmers have from time immemorlal
exclaimed against the destructive
ness of these quadrupeds, whose
annual devastations cause the money
value of the property destroyed to
swell into thousands of dollars.
Any fruit grower who has planted
young orchard knows what al
most iucalculable damage mice and
rabbits can do in a single winter. |

diameter girdled by mice from the

years ago when we lost nearly 1000

Six Ice Houses and a Grocery Store
 Burned Early This Morning.
 NEW HAVEN, July 13 Six ice houses of the New Haven Ice company were destroyed early this morning. The ice houses are located on Elm street in Whitneyville and are beyond the fire limits of New Haven. Shortly after 12:30 lightning struck the house two buildings above Augur's store. In a re- markedly short space of time the whole ice house was in flames. There was a breeze blowing and sparks and burning brands were carried to the adjoining ice houses and 1t was not long before the whole plant, containing six ice houses, was a mass of flames. The area covered by the fire was 600 by 400 feet and the flames shot up into the air fully 100 feet. The reflection in the sky could be seen for miles around. It was with great difficulty that the fire was con- fiued to the Ice company's property. The small grocery store occupied by George D. Blakeslee, and owned by the Ice company, was burned later. In the ice houses was stored Is, 900 tons of ice, all of which is a total loss. The loss on the grocery store fire is estimated at about $1 900 while the Ice company will entail loss of fully $60 900.

THREATENED TO KILL coLLoTY.
Jack Neville FlourIshes Revolver In Q
 Bank Street Saloon.

Jack Neville F1ourishes Q Revolver in .
 Bank Street Saloon.
 About 10:S0 this morning Jack Neville entered M. J. Colloty's saloon, at the corner of Bank and Meadow streets, and walking down the length of the room sat in a chair at the rear end. A party of four friends stood at the bar and the proprietor was waiting upon them. He noticed that Neville was somewhat under the influence of drink and after he had finished attending to the wants of his customers he went to Neville and said: "Here, you must get up and out of here" Neville asked: Don't you know me?" "It does not make any difference" said Mir Col lotY, "I don't allow any drunken man to sit around in my place." After attend ing to some more customers he went to Neville again and taking him by the arm to the side door showed him into the street. Neville became abusive and called the proprietor taunting names, saying: "I will shoot you, see if l don't" h about ten minutes he en- drawn revolver and began fourishing it at Mir Colloty. The latter picked up a beer glass, but on second thought laid it down again and jumped over the bar. The men standing about threw several glasses at Neville, none of which hit him. Mir ColIoty took hold of him and after a short struggle he broke away,
 ran out the back door and towards the Waterbury Lumber & Coal companY's yard. Mir Colloty gave chase and cap
 tured him, holding him with the re
 volver until Officer Healy got to thu scene and took him to the police station
