Within the past hundred years the re-
publics Of France and the United States
have been born; absolute monarcies have
been Except that OF Russia gradually
hedged in. and their powers decreased:
the slave trade has been made piracy
serfs emancipated in Russia. and slavery
wiped out In our own country. The tele
graph and the.railroad with their civil
lizing influences. are children OF this cen
tury. The great benevolent and fraternal
movements have attained their greatest
force in our day. In our age, too has be-
gun the emancipation Of woman from the
preiudices which limited her scope Of oc-
cupation and her right to complete ed
ucation. She is now in all kinds Of buis-
ness and professions and the most splen-
did schools have been founded for the
benefit Of her sex. Political equality has
in many places. too. been conferred up
on her. The luxuriousness Of modern
travel, also. is largely due to the feeling
that nothing is to good or too dainty for
| women. This il is which has led to
the sumptuousness Of the sleeping and
parlor cars operated on most lines Of rail
road. In the management Of the elegent

A Bridal Bouquet.

A German Horticultural journal is
responsible for this story about bridal
bouquet: \ certain schoolteacher in
the town Of kOnitz had ordered bou-
quet for his wedding day, stipulating
that it should not cost more than 4
marks 81, but not designating what
kind of flowers should be selected. 1t
was in the gutumn, when hothouse
flowers We're few and dear, SO the for
list composed ii of white dahlias, but
the bride and her family declaring that
these flowers were unfit for the purpose
the schoolteacher returned the bouquet
to its maker and refused to pay for it.
The florist then sued him, but the
position of the schoolmaster was sus-
tanned in court, in accordance with the
testimony of experts in matters of taste
whom he had called in and who echoed
the opinion of the bride.
A similar result followed upon an
appeal to higher court, despite the
testimony of experts now summoned by
the florist, and the florist was rdered
to pay the costs of the suit, am mounting
to 300 marks.

Examining the Brain by Electric Light.

A report comes to us from st. Louis to
the effect that DIR. Donald H. Farquhar of
that city has succeeded in so concentrat-
ing the electric light that it will illume
the brain. The same plan can also be
adopted when it is necessary to study the
pathological condition in other parts of
the body. A small cone of light from an
800 candle power lamp is made to pene-
trate the tissues. and it is said that bro
ken bones can be studied and injuries
learned that could not be determined by
the ordinary methods of examination.

G. E. DIXON's CAREER.
The Bad and the Good of His Life as
Told by Different Persons

Below we give an interesting ac-
count of the past life of c. E. Dixon
(who was shot and killed by Dick
Johnson Tuesday afternoon), as
printed in the Arkansas Press:
mo, said Martin Forster, of the
we'll known Forster restaurant,
this morning, to Press reporter,
81 was not surprised to hear of
Dixon's death.
81 received a telegram from Tex
arkana at o'clock last night stat
ing that Dixon had been killed. l
said at once that it was a just re-
tribution. He was a reckless fellow
and a drunkard, and for years has
kept Texarkana in a reign of terror;
the people there were scared of him
and always avoided him, To my
certain knowledge he murdered one
man and assisted in the killing of
at least fifteen others-all gam
blers.
'Dixon lived in Little Rock at
one time and he is well known to
the old time gamblers here. For
years he ran a keno game for Horn
ibrook & Townsend. In 1874 he
went to Texarkana He entered
the town with a flourish, and soon
ruled the gamblers with an iron
hand. He ran a keno establish
ment and would not allow other
gamblers to ply their vocation. AS
soon as a gambler opened up a
house he was notified by Dixon
that he would have to give him a
certain per cent of the receipts or
leave town, If the gambler refus-
ed to do either, he was gotten out
of the way by Dixon's gang.
ga few years after his arrival in
Texarkana Dixon was elected Sher.
if, but he continued to run his
game. In March, 1888, a young
man named Albert S. Johnson, aged
% years, came to Texarkana. He
had plenty of money and made a
big loan to two men to open up a
gambling house. Dixon soon heard
of this. He hunted up young John
son and told him to close his estab-
lishment. Johnson refused and
cursed Dixon. Johnson would not
be blufied and challenged Dixon to
fight. Dixon refused saying that
he was an officer of the law. When
| heard of the challenge | said to a
party of friends that Dixon would
assassinate Johnson at the first OPP
portunity, A few days after this
Johnson scattered cards over town
denouncing Dixon as liar, coward
