WOMEN AS DETECTIVES

In refutation OF the oft repeated as
sertion that a woman cannot keep :
secret is the statement that the great
Pinkert9u detective agency employs
many women in its service. The
women are used in three ways, first, as
''sha6owing" suspicious characters,
that is to say, following them about
the streets and learning their haunts
and habits; secondly, to watch and be-
come acquainted with persons who are
likely to know the object of the search,
and who may be able to impart infor-
nation. The great art here lies in
quickly determining how important
this person may be, and in drawing out
the required knowledge with "a tact
that never awakens suspicion. The
third division is by riding in street
cars and railway trains and watching
the guards and conductors to see if
they serve the company properly, and
if they are honest with the funds they
collect. Often the wives and daugh-
tiers of railway men make application
at the detective bureau for this kind
of work and are received. Again
women often serve through the private
employment of detective official, who
during the course of an investigation
realizes the Importance of some
/ women's cooperation and engages ani
! pays her for helping him acquire the
! necessary data and preserving the
scent of the trail.

BITE PROVES FATAL.
New York Child of Eighteen Months
Dies After Being Bitten.

Bertha WuT, the 1Smonths-old
daughter of August Wurr, who lives
in the rear house at Al Morton street,
says the New York Sun, was bitten on
the arm by a mosquito on Thursday Of
last week. The bite made the child
restless and she scratched it contIn-
ually. The next day the arm sWelled
until it was twice the normal size,
and the child became very i'll. DR..
Cole, of the Northwestern dispensary,
who was called in, found Bertha in
great pain and suffering from a high
fever.
The child also had great difficulty in
brea thing He prescribed for her, but,
in spite of his care, the little girl died
on Monday. AS the case was a pecu-
liar one it was reported at the cor
oner's office, and yesterday Deputy
Coroner Huber made an investigation
After describing the symptoms DR..
Cole said he thought the child's death
was caused by the mosquito bite. Dr.

was due to cellulitis, which is an in

HELP! HELP! HELP!i!
Harvest Hands Badly Needed in the
Northwest.

There is urgent need of help in the
northwest, the help of men to save the
abundant grain crops now in the fields
of Minnesota and North Dakota, the
only kind Of help these states have
ever needed. Harvesters, threshing
machines and crews will be needed in
nearly every locality. Never was there
heavier stand Of grain. The Great
Northern and other railways report a
large increase in business in view Of
the good times which seem again we'll
established in the northwest. The
crop in sight is the phenomenal abun-
dance of 1897 when the harvest was
great but not properly cared for, good
weather not awaiting the convenience
of the farmers, and the result was
that hundreds of acres of as fine grain
as ever grew went to waste uncut or
in the shock, there not being men
enough to handle it before unusually
heavy fall rains came on The farmer
of northern Minnesota and North Da-
kota intends to profit by the severe
lesson of that year and leave nothing
undole that can be done to realize the
full benefit of this years work, but he
must have assistance. To afford this
assistance Will give men an admirable
chance to visit the northwest and pay
their way by working in the fields,
and by SO doing it becomes a mutual
benefit to all concerned. 1t may or
may not rain, but history repeats it
self and forewarned is forearmed.
