The outcome of the liquor battle in
South Carolina was certainly anticipated
by no one. 1t is nothing more OF less
than total, absolute prohibition. First,
the dispensary law was declared uncon-
stitutional. and'everyoDe supposed that
South Carolina was to have free whisky
until the legislature should meet again
Bat two cases which have inst been
decided bring cut the following results
of the foregoing decision: The court
states that the dispensary law has been
declared unconstitutional in all points
save the enc which forbids the granting
0flieenses. The bill as whole being
Unconstitutional the clause repeating
the previous liquor law is ALEC nneonsti
tutional there fore it is still Illegal to
sell liquor without license. Bat if no
one can ellwithout a license, and there is
no power in the state that has authority
10 grant license, the liquor traffic is
prohibited This is an unexpected vic
tory, and it remains with PrObibitionists
10 hold the fort that has fallen 50 easily
into their hands.

She Likes to Get Even

eff there is one thing more than an
other that pleases me, it is to get even
with a grumpy man." said bright
girl in our hearing the other day. 1.-The
other night man and were out walk
ing and he asked me into a drug store
to have some soda. 3 fore we ordered
he asked the prop ietor i he could
change q ten dollar bill and shat indi-
vidual snapped out No as though my
escort had insulted him. Leaving me
seated there, my man friend went
across the way, where he secured the
change right readily, and when he
came back we sat down to vanilla soda
and lemon phosphate. When every
drop was gone fifty cents was offered in
payment, and I was just tickled to
death when the cross old thing couldn't
change that either. There we were in
> two drinks and the Grabbed druggist
had to see us depart without his pay.
My friend wanted to go back and pay
him later, but told him if he did I
would never speak to him again. Oh.
it was just lovely said the little
vixen, as she showed her white teeth
as they snapped together on a choc-
olate caramel and beamed in vicious
glee over the memory of one poor mans

COST OF BRITISH DEFENSE.
The Immense Expense Incurred by Eng
lands Military Operations.


lands Military Operations.
The British empire spends as a rule
upon defense from $3.50, 1000, 900 to $780,
100000 year, of which the military ex-
penditure of India, with the indirect
expenditure for the sake of India on
the mobile land forces at home, forms
the largest item, says Sir G. W. Dixie,
in North American Review. Almost
the whole of this vast sum is expended
out of British loans or taxes under the
control of the parliament of the United
Kingdom, and out of India taxes under
the indirect control of the house of
commons through the secretary OF
state, who is a member of the govern
ment of the day. This expenditure,
although vast, although open to the re-
proach that it does not do more than
maintain feet slightly superior to
that of France, and an army of very
small numbers, is fleabite as COM
pared lin its i'll effect upon the wealth
of the nation) with the military ex-
penditure of Italy, or, in less degree,
with that Of other continental powers.
The evidences of the overpressure OF
taxation in India itself, many as they
are, are slight in comparison with
those which are present in the case OF
Italy; and it may be assumed therefore
that, while the taxpayers of the United
Kingdom and of India may make thei1
voices heard in insisting upon better
value for their money, the expenditure
will not in itself be brought to an end
by bankruptcy.

than any one individual. The triumph,
short as it was, lasted long enough to
show that it was unworthy OF the great
sacrifice of womanhood by which it
came about.
Another mission of Mrs. Lease was to
raise women to an equality with men,
as if nature had not already done more
than that. But she meant to degrade
them to political level. Her example
and her fate will have contrary effect
upon the intended benefciaries of her
purpose. Many a woman who has
longed for suffrage will now shrink
from it in contemplation of the career
of Mrs. Lease.
If she was happy and contented be-
fore she became a politician, there is
much to be done before she can re-
enter her old estate. She must live down
foolish and disappointed ambition. She
must slowly win her way back into the
hearts of her husband and children,
who must have ceased to regard her as
q wife or a mother.
She needn't, though, trouble herself
about her future standing with the
public with which her name is now go
familiar. In another five years it will
have been quite forgotten and it will be
as if no woman by the name of Lease
had ever b ad political dream.

Judge Q who once presided over
criminal court ''down east" was IA
nous as one of the most compassionate
men who ever sat upon bench. His
softness of heart, however, did not pre-.
vent him doing his duty as Judge. A
man who had been convicted of steal.
ing small amount was brought into
court for sentence. He looked very sad
and hopeless and the court was much
moved by his contrite appearance.
"Have you ever been sentenced to i'm
prisonment?" the judge asked.
''Never! never!" exclaimed the pris-
ener, bursting into tears
Don't cry, don't cry" said Judge
O., consolingly; you're going to be

1T TURNED TO ASHES.

Mrs. Lease has given up the fight
against ungrateful politicians whom
she vas to some extent instrumental in
eleyating to power. She will abandon
the turmoil of politics and again enter
her old and more honorable place as
woman, wife and mother, which for her
own peace of mind and the honor OF her
sex she should never have deserted.
She has accomplished much during
the i've years she has been in public
life, but it had all better been left un-
done. She has made her name house
hold word throughout the length and
breadth of the land, but it is not a
household word of which she may be
proud. Any woman who would have sim
ilarly unsexed herself could have at
tanned similar notoriety.
She has been greeted with ieers
throughout the north and has been
made target for rotten eggs in the
south. The east has laughed at and
made fun of her and the west has been
made ashamed of her.
But her avowed mission at the out
set has been in part ACCOMPLISHED. The
Pnpullst party enjoyed brief triumph
in Kansas, and, perhaps. Mrs. lease

was Brazilian who had lived in Paris
most of her life. She was too perfect
in looks to require any wits, suppose,

stupid; but it suited her style to be
apathetic and Indifferent. One even

and spark fell on her light muslin
gown. She only said: Look, mon
ami, my dress is on fire; pray put me
out and I really felt grateful to her
for not jumping up and screaming as
most women would, thus shattering
my ideal of the absolute calm and rest

CRIME IN THE EAST.

Some three months ago band of am
bilious train robbers were led into
trap near St. Joseph, Mo-, and shot
down as warning to people inclined to
take improper liberties with other peo-
ple's rolling stock. Two NIGHTS ago an
other band of train robbers without
any preconcerted arrangement with the
railroad officials stopped train on pre-
cisely the same spot and got success
fully away with a sum of money vari-
ously estimated at from $500 to $50, 900.
The frat event may be described as
hippodrome by which it was intended
to discourage the train robbing indus
try. 1t seems though to have only
served the purpose of pointing out to
surviving train robbers what a con.
venient place that particular spot was
for the business.
Speaking of train robberies, Missouri
is rapidly re-gaining her reputation,
which began to wane with the collapse
OF the well-known firm of James Bros. &
Co. 1t is an interesting fact, which we
desire should not be overlooked, that
four-ffths OF the train robbsr les COM
mitted in the United States for the
fiscal yAar ending January l, occurred
east of the Missouri river, and during
the same period three fifths of the train
robberies took place east of the Missis-
sippi.
Criminal statistics also show a SINH
lar eastern preponderance of murders,
rapes and other infamous crimes within
an area EN- bracing much less than one
half of the country. and which, though
densely populated, presents natur ally
less opportunity for crime and SUCCESS
full escape.
Still, the people of that crime-ridden
section speak pityingly and patroniz-
ingly Of the lawless west.

FEMININE LONELINESS.
The Beautiful Empress of Austria-A
Brazilian belle in Paris.

BraZili2n belle IN Paris.
At a recent dinner at which several
diplomats were present the ever-fer-
tile subject of beautiful women came
up, and as usual evoked many com
ments, criticisms, and memories of
past beauties as compared with the
bellies of the present day, says a
writer in the New York Tribune.
''Who is the most beautiful woman
you have ever SEEM" was asked of the
minister to -, who has grown gray
in the service and had lived in every
large town in Europe.
'Unquestionably the empress of
Austria" he replied, without mo-
ment's hesitation. ''Of course I speak
of the time when she was younger and
happier than she is now. l remember
well the first time saw her We were
all assembled in a large salon of the
palace when some heavy velvet por-
there's were suddenly drawn back and
she appeared, surrounded by her
ladies. 1t was like veritable fairy
scene. I suppose I was young and
foolish and impressionable, but-what
a vision of loneliness thought her!
She was dressed in violet, with some
thing glistening all over it, and 1 took
it all in at glance-her regal figure
and carriage, her magnificent eyes
and the superb coronet of hair which
she wore plated as one sees even now
in her pictures. She spoke most
graciously to me, a youngster, and it
was then and there that 1 became her
slave and shall be till die.''
