COLLEGE GIRLS AND MARRIAGE.

| COLLEGE GIRLS AND MAhhIAdE'
An urgent and ptrple1ing question
in many households in the early
autumn is that which pertains to q
College education for the maturing
sons and daughters There Is never
much doubt az to the answer to the
question, shall we send John to COL
legep il the family means are sufi-
Cient. The perplexity comes when
the same question is applied to Mary.
Mrs. Kate Epson. CLARK has thrown
light on the subject Of q college edu-
cation for girls. No mother, she says
can contemplate calmly the thought
Of her daughter as old, lonely, and
dependent, instead Of Ainging her in
to society, immature and half educat-
ed to make q marriage which her
jejune condition is more likely than
not TO prove unfortunate; and to be- |
come mother whose ideals and cap
abilities are necessarily imperfect; or,
very possibly, not to marry after all.
would il not be better to see that, |
ct least, the girl is made into as fine
and reasonable being as nature will
permit Then, If heaven vouchsafe
her that best gift to woman, a good
husband, she is ready to be a true
helpmste to him; If she has children
she is fitted to become judicous and
successful mother. The statistics show
that college-bred women rear health
fully larger proportion Of their chill
dren than other mothers. If on the
other hand, she remains single she is
still able to find genuine happiness
She has learned how to extract pure
pleasure from books and pictures and
to climb the heights of science; she
can earn her living and provide a
home for herself. The fretfulness
and sOurness Of the typical dlssa-
pointed old maid of the past are un-
known to her. She weighs her life
in the scales and sees clearly that,
though it may not be enriched by the
love OF husbang and children, it may
still be OF benefit to humanity; per.
haps all the greater because she has
at her commend the leisure and op-
portunlties of a single woman. 1t
has been conclusively demonstrated
that the higher education pursued
judlciously is one Of the best things
for the health Of girls. It clears
away the sentlmentsllsm which makes
our women hysterlcal, whimsical, and
unreasonable; it makes them philoso-
phical, brave, witty and charming.
II one thing has been more exclusive
~ proved than another by the worlds
experience during the last fifty yesrp,
it is that il pays to educate girls. The
statistics are as yet difficult to analy ze
exactly, but there is no doubt that a
girls chances Of happy marriage.
not merely a marriage, but happy
marriage-are little, il any, decreased
by a college education, and that her
chances Of fortunate and successful
life, in which she may snap her fing.
ers at fate, are infinitely increased
thereby.

Two Old Legislators Dead.

Two old-time Missouri law makers
passed away last week. The first to go
was Josiah M. Anthony of Madison
county. He was a member Of the
Twentieth, Twenty eighth, Thirty-firs
and Thirty General Assemblies,
aud later was connected for a time
with the State grain inspection de-
partment He was a farmer and con.
siderable Of politician. While in the
legislature Mr. Anthony was known
as the wit Of the house, an honor he
was fairly entitled 10 wear. When the
House was worn out with tedious
debate everyone naturally looked to Mr..
Anthony for an outbreak of humor,
and he generally responded He was
strictly honest and well liked Every
body always wanted to hear Mr..
Anthony speak. He was 70 years old.
DR.. VIM. II. Folmsbee died at his
home in Gallatin, Daviess county, Inst
week He was about 10 years old and
had lived In Missouri about. forty years.
He was elected to represent Daviess
county in the Legislature in 1862, and
later was member Of the Drake con-
stitutional convention. DR.. Folmsbee

jefferson City Bridge Completed,

The last span of the steel bridge
across the Missouri River at Jefferson
City has been completed and the event
was marked by the blowing of all the
steam whistles on the river and bridge
works. Only the approaches, which
are well under way, remain to be COM
pleted, and they will be pushed by
large forces of men on each side of the
river, and the bridge will be open for
traffic by the list Of April, but the
formal dedication will not take place
until some weeks later. The Chicago
and Alton Railway has corps Of sur
veyors at work selecting a route for q
spur track from its terminus at Cedar
City to the north approach of the
bridge, so that passengers by that line
can be transferred in ten minutes. 1,
is very likely that the Missouri, Kan
sas and Texas will also put in a spui
track to the bridge and become an
active competitor for freight and pas
senger traffic with the Missouri Pacific
The bridge complete will cost $3.50. 600

Discovered Pigmies in Africa.

From the Philadelphia Times.
Donaldson Smith, the young PhilH-
delphia physician, who has been ON an
expedition to Lake Rudolph, Africa.
arrived in New York from London On
board theAmerican line steamer, st
Louis yesterday afternoon, and last
evening reached his home in this city.
Perhaps of the greatest popular inter
est is his discovery of many new tribes
whose existence was heretofore uri-
known. Among these is race of pig
mics, the fact of whose discovery has
caused commotion in scientific circles.
These curious people are of a negro
type, are coal black and absolutely
naked. Although of great physical
beauty, with well-formed limbs, they
are barely removed from animals, and
their code of morality is very lax. Late1
in life, however, they settle down and
marry. These remarkable people ar'
all between four and five feet high anf
live in primitive conical huts.
Their only industry is corn raising
and the rearing of sheep and goass
They are born hunters. In warfAr'
they use poisoned arrows, the wound
inflicted by which prove fatal withi'

Pill Box For the World.


From the London Standard.
Between 9, 600, 900 and 1000, 900 pills
of one kind or another are estimated to
be daily consumed in the United King
dom The estimates are based on the
actual daily sales by druggrists of ordi-
nary pills, prescription pills and patent
medicine pills. The average of these
estimates, which came in from all
parts of the country, showed that the
daily consumption was considerably
over 8, 800, 900, which would give one
pill per week to every man, woman
and child of the population, Taking
the average pill to weigh three grains,
the year supply for the United King
dom would weigh not less than 17s
tons, or enough to fill SO ordinary
wagons, and making trainload which
would require two powerful engines to
pull.

Tariff Bill Defeated.

Senator Morrill,, chairman of the
finance committee, attempted to call up
the tariff bill and met instantaneous
and emphatic defeat. His motion to
consider the measure was defeated by
the decisive vote of--yeas, 90 mays, 38s
The vote was the cause of lively
debate upon existing financial condir
tions, which was participated in by
Messrs. Teller, Sherman, Aldrich and
Others Mr.. Teller objected to what he
deemed an attempt on the part Of Mr.
Morrill, to read silver republicans out

was equally warm in his statements,
and the debate proved one of the most
interesting Of the present session. Mr..
Frye declared that the tariff bill was
as dead as julius Caesar, hoped that 1t
would never be heard from again and
wished the responsibility to rest where
it belonged.
On the following day the tariff crisis
in the senate brought another day Of
intensely dramatic action, of impetuous
debate and of strongly personal col
loquy. The speech of Senator Carter,
one Of the five republican senators who
voted against proceeding with the tariff
bill, was the main event of the day.
There was added interest in the speech
owing to Mr.. Carter's position as
chairman Of the republican national
committee. The senator used plain
words in denouncing what he termed
