their answer, which was a most en-

in the face Of all this testimony, there

And they would give bond to pay

Women.

we are nearing great ueal now
about "the new woman just as ten
years ago there was a great TODD
about "the advanced woman" There
has been much talk about "woman's
sphere both from strong-minded
females who would make man Of
her, and from fusty and musty doc
tors of divinity, who would make her
a smirking and Ignorant nonentity.
At any rate, whether woman has all
the rights she wants or not, she has
always attracted attention, and men
have made remarks about her from
Adams 'the woman thou gavest me"
down to the present. For instance:
"Woman's at best a contradiction"
Goods last, best gift to man." mis-
tress of herself, though china fall"
"When the candles are out, all wom-
en- are fair" "Whoso findeth a wife
fndeth a good thing" "a child Of
our grandmother Eve" "What will
not gentle woman dare?" Variable
as the shade by the aspen made.'
"Man's best possession is a syrpa-
thetic wife," "Woman lost Mark
Antony the world" Perfect woman,
noblv planned Mature made thee
to temper man." Fantastic as a
woman's mood" Glove deceives the
best Of woman-kind." england is
paradise for women" If we substi-
tute our own country for England in
the last quotation, it will come pretty
near the truth. Women ought to be
friends to railroads, for the latter
have done more than any other
agency to make this country com
Portable for them. The beautiful and
luxurious furnishings are for the eyes
of women. The compartment sleep
er is specially for her benefit. The
courtesy and attention shown to
women is nowhere more marked than
on our railroads, especially "the Burl-
ington," famed for it's care Of women
travelling alone. Remember this,
ladies, and buy tickets to Chicago
and St. Louis over the Burlington.

The Sugar Trust has joined the
other trusts in marking up the neces-

fruit crop will be largely increased
this year, and, consequently, the con-
sumption Of sugar larger. AL the

the trusts, and they apply it even in
anticipation Of future demands. The

"FLY LOO" WITH A VENGEANCE.

How Scientist Did Little Investigation
and Also Did a Party of Friends.
The fat man with the stubby mus
tache and the tall, blond man with
the green tie smoked silently for {
time. Over near the bar two youne
men were contributing their sub
stance to one of those cigar machines
where the nickel you drop zigzags
down among the steel pins in a way
which makes you think you are GO
ing to win box of Henry Clays and
then gives you the laugh and drops
out of sight.
That's worse than fly loo, +" said
the fat man after he had watched
the game awhile.
whats fly LOOP" asked the man
with the green tie.
"Oh, it's a little game we used to
play in British Guiana when I was
on the sugar plantation. Most of the
white people down there are Eng
lish, and draw poker is altogether
too American for them. Besides it's
so hot a good part of the time that
there's no fun in anything that
keeps you moving. So they play fly
loo. You sit around table with a
cool drink handy and a cheroot
Everybody puts lump of sugar on
the table in front of him and throws
q shilling into the pot. Then every
body takes drink and smokes. +"
"But where does the game come
imp
"I'm getting to that. Nobody does
anything till fly lights on a lump
of sugar. Then the man who owns
that lump takes the pot. Every body
antics another shilling and takes an
other drink and waits for another
fly. If two flies light on two Jumps
at the same time, it's jack pot, and
if two flies get on to the same lump
at the same time it costs another
shilling all around. It's a great
game for a hot country. You don't
have to think any or say anything
Or do anything, and you can lose
enough in an evening to make it in
teresting."
The man with the green tie smok-
ed thoughtfully q minute and then
said: Don't believe I'd like a game
like that. It's nothing but chance
no room for skill or science. /"
:" I used to think the same way, .
said the fat man, but ! got over it,
That was the winter tho professor
was with us. He came from New
England and was collecting bugs.
He was quiet, pious looking chap,
sort of ministerial in his talk. But

deal of evenings and was always
watching the game through his big
spectacles. One night after he had

CITIES GOING TO THE DEVIL.

L
DR., Parkhurst said not long age
that unless something is done, ane
done at once, to save the big cities
they will go straight to the devil.
When one stops to think of it there
is great deal of truth and SOUND
logic in the statement. tits certainly
true of the big cities, and is also true
of the small cities. Even in small
villages it is still operative. Taking
it all in all, the fact is that every
thing everywhere will go straight to
the devil if something is not done at
once and all the time. THE descent
of Avernus is facile," said the poet
He meant that in this world the devil
has down-hill pull.
1t is very good world, neverthe-
less, but there is room for much i'm
provement. In some respects the
cities are good places. They are vast
workshops. The man who has work
to do and is in a hurry to do it nat
urally drifts into them. They give
HIM opportunities and material, and
if he has good in him he has oppor-
tunities for using it increased hun
dred-fold in the city. Unfortunately
it is so too with evil. That cannot be
helped entirely. 1t can be regulated,
however, so that good will be allowed
free play. Give the freest possible
play to all good purposes.
In some of our small cities the devil
has been given black eye by the
passing of the "Curfew" ordinance,
which prevents him from plying his
nefarious business by gas light on the
youths of our cities. He has also
been given a seth by our last leg
stature in prohibiting the sale of
tobacco and liquor to chill
dren under sixteen years of age.
These are steps in the right direction
and more will soon be liable to follow.
And now if every father and mother
would see that the laws are rigidly
enforced and more good ones enacted,
that their boys and girls may be
brought up in the path of the good
unhampered, the devil would silently
fold his tent and steal away for the
lack of business. Let parents try to
make home comfortable so that their
boys and girls will spend their even
ings home instead Of in the glaring
gas light of the saloon, gambling
dens and public dance hall. The
most prosperous work of the devil is
on boys from ten to eighteen years
of age. Keep them out of his clutches
between those ages and his congre-
cation on judgment will be very
small.

said yes, of course, and he pulled out
a lump Of sugar and put up his shil-

We'll, sir, it wasn't ten seconds
before two flies bumped their heads

all put up another shilling apiece,

For weeks the streets have resounded
with a nOnsensical cry which has proved
absolutely infectious, and 90 En- voulez-vous

In almost every grade Of society and in
endless variation has done journalistic
duty over and over again. The phrase,
bad French as it may be, has made all
sorts Of victims, and its constant reitera-
ton has proved such nuisance that 1t has
become absolutely obnoxious. The police,
II thoy had tho power, would put it down,
but all that they can do is to take up in
Qenious hawkers of leaflets and trashy
catchpennies who sought to put some sense
into tho idle words by converting the
'thomaris" into "mouohards, substitu-
ton which, however, cost them 20 francs
fine.
The cry as it stands has absolutely no
meaning Of It's own. 1t has not, more
over, a double meaning When adle asks
how 1t originated, you are reminded that
it suddenly leaped into popularity when
certain cafe chantant singer in the Champs
Flysees gave a song nightly with this idi-
otto refrain. 1t is not the first time in
their history that the Parisians have
adopted cry which is devoid OF reason.

a full troublous year, and the emperor

LONELY MOUNDS Al poINr BARROW.
They Mark the Antiquity Of "A Native Race,
but Do Not Tell Its Story.


Point Barrow, Alaska, the northern
most point Of land Of the North Ameri-
can continent, has some interesting
oraveyards Of its own About 1 / years
ago Lieutenant Ray, in his report of
the polar expedition to Point Barrow,
recorded that in digging shaft 20 feet
below the earth's surface to obtain
earth temperatures he found a pair Of
wooden goggles, pointing to the great
lapse Of time since these shores were
first peopled. The Alaska Mining Rec
ord saws that this country was undoubt-
edly inhabited long before Columbus
discovered America. OF the origin OF
descent Of the inhabitants no definite
trace has been found, and there are no
records Of the past among the people
who now live there. Their language
abounds in legends, but none gives any
data by which to judge how long these
desolate shores have been inhabited.
The ruins Of ancient villages and
winter huts along the seashore and IN
the interior show that the country has
been inhabited for centuries. There are
mounds at Point Barrow marking the
site Of three huts dating back to the
time when the natives had no iron and
the men talked like dog. " These
mounds stand in the middle of a marsh,
and the sinking of the land caused the
site to be flooded and abandoned. The
inhabitants in times past have followed
the receding line Of ice which at one
time canned the northern part of this
continent and have moved along the
easiest line of travel This is shown in
the general distribution Of a similar
people, speaking a similar tongue, from
Greenland to Boring strait The dis
tribution Of the race today marks the
routes travelled. The seashore led them
along the coasts of Labrador and Green
land, Hudson bay and its tributary
waters. They came down the Yukon, so
rich in minerals, to people the shores OF
that stream and the interior Of Alaska,
and travelled along the coast to Cape
Prince Of Wales. To this day they use
dogs instead Of deer, the natives of
North America having never domesti-
Gated the reindeer, and they speak
different tongue from their neighbors
across the strait in Siberia.
Some writers ON the subject have adj
yanced the theory that the natives Of
Alaska are descendants Of the race Of
people that Cortes drove out of Mexico,
others that they are japanese or Chinese
in origin, and others still that they
came to this country across the strait
from Siberia. So far as definite infor-
nation is concerned, one guess is as
good as another. The lonely mounds
at Point Barrow mark the antiquity Of
the race, bat they do pot tell its story.
