and attacked the town, and would have
taken it and murdered every one in it.

the Apacbes on two sides, killed some Of

that crime was almost unknown, and she
never knew any one to be punished more

village required all strangers, unless they
were of established replta tion, to engage
in some labor or business within three
days after their arrival or leave town, and
to this regulation she attributes their ex-
emption from crime. On inquiry as TO
whether they had LIQUOR in those days,
she said that she never knew time when
there was not plenty of mescal. but that
it was only on rare occasions that they

BATTLE OF THE INKS

"Tush - cried the Red Ink to the Black.
I'm full of color, which you lack.
Black is the symbol of the sad;
Red is the sym bol of the glad;
Red is joyous, red is loud.
Reds the hue of the truly proud.
Black means mourning. sRah for me!
I am the color of Victory"
"You are the color OF the battlefield!
You are the color of death we'll sealed!
You are the hue of the men whose plea
Is summed up fully in Anafchy!'
The Black Ink said to the Ink of Red.
"Red is, the groundwork of England's S
fag.'
cred Is the field of the Anarchists rag"
''Red is the hue of Liberty's reign"
BLACK is the color that followed its train
In the land Of France, where kings were
killed,
Where history stands with its heart full
chilled
'Red for moi" cried the Red Ink then,
"Let me stand by the use of Men,"s
Said the Ink so black.
Despite my lack
OF color and hue.o
And the hours flew.
The Ink so red that twas filled with pride
In q column of figures doth now abide.
The Ink SO black that it reused the sneer
OF the Colorado Ink, came out this year,
On soft ana beautiful sprlng-time day,
In verse that will live forever and aye |!

SWEATERS FOR WOMEN
Her Gentle Influence Has Transformed the
Once Simple Garment


New York World: Everyone knows
what the sweater has been during it's USE
full and unattractive career. 1t has been
shapeless. seamless and often sleeveless
sort of bodice, woven of wool, very heavy,
witt, coarse collar formed simply by al
lowing the m aterial to reach so high in
the neck that if turned over on it's own
accord. The sweater was comm only seen
in homely, durable shades, such as dark
blue or cream color. Sometimes an excep-
tionally frivolous youth would indulge in
red one. The sweater was worn by
athletlcally disposed young men and
filled its niche in the world very COM
fortably by affording. those young men a
warm, elastic and absorbent exercising
garment.
By and by women looked upon the
sweater and saw that it was good. They
demanded to know by what right men
had 80 long kept that desirable bodice
for their own use. They declared that
they. too, would have sweaters and they
proceeded to do SO. Undoubtedly there
were worthy people who bewailed the in
appearance OF all true womanliness from
the world. No one feared for the sweater.
YET it was the sweater which suffered !.
True womanliness IS still abroad in the
land. but the good old-fashioned sweater
where is it?
In the shops which cater to the needs
OF the new woman it may be seen, but
as they say IN novels oh, how changed
The erstwhile simple sweater, the SIM
plest OF all known garments, has become
under woman's gentle influence a curious
mongrel piece of attire. 1t retains it's old
seamlessness, but it boasts of sleeves dis
tended as though with crinoline. 1t
faunts itself in every known color. 1t
encircles the form of the store dummy
with the rose and gray stripes OF Vassar.
1t flashes forth in vivid Yale blue for the
benefit of Yale sympathizers. 1t burns
in crimson for the damsel whose affec-
tions turn toward Harvard. Princeton
black and orange and Cornell white and
cardinal fight together for supremacy in
producing blindness. And not only in
gorgeousness of hue and in breadth Of
sleeve does the woman's sweater show
the inuflence Of woman. There are
sweaters which, opening at the neck, are
laced daintily with silk cords run through
eyelet holes. There are sweaters which
show revers of contrasting colors. There
are even sweaters adorned with white
ribbon bows. Fancy man going forth
to practice for rowing contest clad in
gray sweater with big sleeves. pink rev.
ers. pink lacing cord and pink ribbon
bow fluttering from his breast!
In the face of this overwhelming evil
dence who can fear for woman's woman
illness. no matter what masculine attire
she may adopt? The only thing which
neeus sympathy or demands dread in this
case is the unfortunate garment which
Will soon become unrecognizable in her
hands.

About Winter crepons

A practical hint of the future is gath
cred from the gossip of the shops. One
of the richest yet most conservative of
the great dry goods stores. when sending
two buyers abroad in search of wooden
goods for next winter. instructed them
not to buy crepon, believing this fabric
to have had it's day of favor with Ameri-
can women. At last report these buyers
had cabled home that they must buy Gre
pom, as there is little or nothing else in
the European market for the next season.
At another house OF great repnte. more
than two-thirds OF the wool sam pies re-
ce1vad for next winter are creped, but in
new and fanciful weaving. different from
anything now seen. These crepons of the
future are also two-toned, some of them
changeable. others in stripes and plaids.
These facts are of value to economists,
who find crepons at greatly reduced prices
filling the counters of the shops. many of
them 81 less in the yard than was asked
at the beginning of the season. Black,
cornflower blue. golden brown and violet
are apparently safe cclors to buy, and 1t
is we'll also to look for those barred or
striped in two colors, and also dotted, as
a season Of fancy fabrics IS predicted

Scientific Fruit Growers

Chicago Times Herald: "Up in the
Michigan peach region" said South
Water street commission man who has
just returned from there. they are get
ting, or at least trying to- get. weather
science down to fine point. Some of
the farmers are undertaking to map out
the counties, just as the national weather
bureau maps out the whole country. By
cooperation they are making carful stu.
dies OF the topography OF the county,
noting the direction OF the prevailing
winds, the location OF timber. and indicat-
ing at what points the frosts struck, and
where they did the most damage this
spring. The idea is that these notes will
be valuable for future guidance in put
ting out orchards. An attempt will
probably be made to have this done ali
over the peach region. These peach
growers belong to the most intelligent
and go-ahead class Of farmers, and Il is
easier to get them to work together in
an enterprise Of this kind than II is the
general run Of farmers."
