They practice polyandry. The country be-

from the economical point of view. 1t is a
common thing for a woman to be the wife
of several brothers. All OF her children,
hcwever, are considered to be the offspring
OF the Oldest brother. Thus property is
kept together, the method being an applf-
cation of the cooperative idea. In many
cases each brother will have a wife of his
own, but the children of all of the wives
are regarded as belonging to the eldest
Lrother A governing restriction is that
brothers must not mary sisters. One ad-
vantage OF the system is that there is al
ways at least one man at home to take care

4 Girl Bandit Chief,

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
Sheriff Hancock with his posse captured
the robbers who held up A. r. Turner,
storekeeper at Rome, this county, one night
last week, and arrived here with them this
afternoon. They Were captured near Lead
He'll. Ark.
One of the bold thieves. and the one who
appeared to be the leader of the gang.
turned out to be a woman. Her name is
Lydia BriSton. There were three of them
who committed the robbery, the Briston
woman being dressed in mems clothing
She ordered Turner around in true high
wayman style. punched him with her pis-
tol, and cursed him because he did not
have more money, terrorzng him until he
hardly knew whether he was on foot or
horseback. Sheriff Hancock recovered $50
Of the $50 taken and both of the horses and
saddles. The three thieves were Ben Trott
an ex-convict, recently released from the
pen at Jefferson City. and the lover of the
girl, an all-round crook, principally horse
thief. who escaped from the Sprin gtield Jail
two years ago with Peter Renfroe, the con-
victed murderer; John Briston, brother Of
the girl, about eighteen years old and
Lydia Briston. John Briston was captured
at his fathers home, near Oakland, Ark
The other two were captured on the high
way, riding the stolen horses.
Lydia Briston is rather comely girl
about twenty-five years old, who is well
known to the police officers of Springfield

ABOUT SALESwOMEN.
Two Sides When the Question of PO-
likeness Is Raised.

From the Philadelphia Press.
An article III current magazine Is not
without Scme good points for shopping
women. 1t is on the saleswomen OF the
great stores. class between whom and its
natural complement, the women shoppers,
there is often a great antasonism.
Mark Twain, in Z recent interview, en-
coureges the American people to do more
protesting against the rampant iIcivlity
and ungraciousness of the Clerking world
He cites the case OF a mild-mannered wo-
man ciyilly accosting saleSwoman, to
be sharply treated and grudgingiy served
after the too frequent manner of her kind,
the patient customer accepting it all as
part of the process of buying. On the
other hand, all shoppers are not mild man
rered. are not even just and rea easonabe
and then it Is that the saleSwoman suffers.
for her place depends upon her success in
making sales and pleasing customers.
In the article referred to the evil infiu
cnce of the strolling LOCKER" women

purchase are called in "saleslady' vernac
ular was illustrated. One of them stopped
at a counter. spoke to tie girl in attend
ance and moved away after a moments
near and asked what she wanted. the
girl explained that she had merely priced
the article and had not intended buying,
Whereupon he out of sorts, perhaps, from
other causes, replied: 'Oh, | guess she
would have bought something if you had
expressed little more interest in her. 1
don't think We want sucn people you
around; you &C to the offiVe and get your
salary and SO the idle curiosity of a
We man who had no special interest in
learning the price she had asked had cost
the girl her place.
Anotk er point fer customers to be con-
siaerate of is to return 10 the same clerk

chase is not made the first visit. 1t is
obviously unfair that the enc who display
ed The goods and consumed valuable time
ir leading up TO the sale should not have
the benefit of it when It is finally made.
As the saleswomen are rated by the firm
according to the books they make up, it
Is most important to them that they get
all the credit to which they are entitled
Shopping wenen can afford to be gener-
Gus. for the balance OF power is tremend-
ously in their favor. The condition Is
good deal like matrmony, where bear and
forbear is the only golden rule.

HE CAN COOK.
Ex-Representntive Cable Has sub-

stantial Fame ns n Cook,
Ben 7. Cable. late Representative from
the Rock Island district. Illinois, with all
his money and his business interests, finds
time to be the best cook of the Abb Club

and what may be done with it, and where
every member has his cooks can and

stew pan or skillet as to hts appetite seem

bread, coffee, with, perhaps, dessert of
duff" as bread pudding Il called, or even
plum duff, the same pudding with raisins
in it. If at for long time, salt meat
or corned meat is used. and perhaps hard
tack instead of bread, and baked beans and
bean soup often appearI iii the menu. In
the olden time grog was served out at the
mast each day at noonI ,but the influence
of temperance societies Stopped this, and
row the "jackey' is lucky il he is allowed
bottle of beer before Timer and supper.
Some Modern lIChanges.
On the old ships the water supply was an
important thing, and water was sparingly
served out: but the modern system of con-
densing the sea water has made a plentiful
supply for all, and the time OF eighty and
ninety-day passages is gone with the old
sailing ships.
Accordingly the necessity of using salt
meats has been much lessened, yet habit
is strong in age, and L once received a
complaint from old blue jacket
whCse earlier service had all been on the
old sailing ships, that he didn't get any
salt pork, and only fresh beef was given
his mess" and that fresh meat might be
coed enough for n landlubber but salt
water sailor needed salt meat" and the
relic of other days got his salt pork.
l have said that grog was stopped for
the men and beer only allowed. but the
personal privileges of officers allow them
to have wine and beer for use in their
mess or for visitors, but no distilled liq-
uors allowed.
OF course, the officers pay for all this
themselves, and even for state visitors, in
whom they nave no personal interest or
friendship. must pay the bill from their
own salary.
Table wines, beer and cigars are gener-
ally kept in wine mess" by the officers,
which is run in much the same way as a
gentlemens club
In most other navies an allowance is
made by the government to each officer for
the entertainment of public visitors
while on foreign station, or of foreign
visitors" on home station, such as the
officers of other friendly governments and
navies who are officially or semi-oficially
entertained
But in our service such entertainment
while practically obligatory, according to
the laws of custom and general usage
must be paid by the officers themselves
and in case of q great celebration or naval
pense, yet. of course, such guests are none
the less welcome.
The stores laid in for long cruise are
often enough to last for a year or more,
and great care in the inspection and pack
ing of such things is necessary to prevent
loss by the spo ling or wetting of -four,
salt and meats.
Thus the commissary department, which
is in charge of the paymaster is quite an
important branch of the service. After
all, in spite of the narrow quarters, shift
ing markets and days at sea the house
keeping of a man-owar may well be
taken as a model, even for those whose
lot is cast on the dry land.
