MANY CHANGES THIS STRING

It is quite certain that TrumbuI is to lose at least five families by the removal of Tait $ Son to North Bridgeport. William Tait, Andrew Tait and W. N. French will move to town in a few weeks. This is quite loss in the popu- lation of the place to say nothing of a thrifty business, However, there are several families who are expecting to come into vacant tenements before long and there seems to be more than the usual demand for country homes. At present there are several rents to be had and among these is 8 good black- mith shop and store.

WOMEN AND BEAUTY.
Privilege Not to BE Denied to the
Fair" Sex.


The intimate association of woman
aad beauty is no vain thing fondly i'm
agined, but fundamental interdepend-
ence that may be denied for space
but can never be annihilated. So far
the denial of this truth has only
brought her to a condition of spurious
growth and fantastic activity, which
has in it neither the seed of the old
peace nor of the new perfection. II
has made of womanhood thing of
shreds and patches-shreds of misdi-
rected energy and patches of misbegot-
ten passion. Nor can she ever hope
to become whole and completed pic
ture with "a reasonable soul and human
flesh subsisting," without the sense of
proportion, which is the first element
of beauty. She has striven for liberty,
and already the keys of the gate of life
are in her hand, but, if she lacks the wit
to make freedom fair, what will it avail
her in the end? AS yet she has not even
knowledge enough TO recognize her own
Incompetence, her unftness for work
and love alike. Labor that is neither
continuous or cooperative benefits none
but the isolated individual, and the
world could go on quite as well, per-
haps better, without it. Neither is the
modern woman a greater expert at love.
At present she is apt TO take it as she
has her shoes mended, while you wait, "
and when she discovers what formless.
colorless thing is this casual Cupid she
jeers at the sentiment of which it is
but the shadows shade. For love can
never be lovely unless the desire at
beauty dwells in the soul of the woman
who loves. And only through the de-
velopment of this desire viii the re-
demption of'woman be wrought out.
This creed may seem at first sight
TO be nothing more than diaphanous
doctrine fashioned Of the stuff that
dreams are made of. But brief study
Of the principles of beauty viii show
that the pursuit of il is by no means
incompatible with the conditions Of
practical life. The service OF beauty
is not an activity. but al attitude Of
heart and mind which. being a sub
jective influence, touches the person
atty of woman rather than her deeds
or words. Once in the possession of this
sixth sense, this exquisite consciousness,
sven the least beautiful of women nav
become fair, good alike 10 the sight and
he soul.-SaturCiav Review

to suffer. Right now Cripple Creek IS
as well supplied with things to eat as
she ever was.
The scenes of the second fire were
in the very heart of the city. 1t rose
in the very reaht Of the city. The
ground rises rapidly 10 the north from
the origin Of the fire and the wind was
directly in that direction. The Port
land hotel, a large wooden building We
neered with brick, was the beginning
and from this it spread east and west
with the main Roadway to the north.
Control was from the first out of the
question. 1t was doom-all the scenes
of the first fire were reflected with four
fold terror. 1t has been described over
and over again in so far as words can
describe it. There were billions OF
flames and clouds of smoke that rolled
like the smoke of torment that come
from the region Of the lost. II was like
the foretold destruction of Jerusalem.
'Let them that are Judea flee unto the
mountains; let him that is on the house
top not go DOWN to take out the things
that are in his house, and let him not
return back to take his cloak. And
pray that your flight be not in winter"
For "desolation is at hand" and there
shall be great distress upon the land"
1t was tumult, terror. despair, roar OF
exploding dynamite and giant powder,
crackle of flames, smash of falling fur
niture, the voice of warning to be ready
rattle Of wagons, clatter of horses feet,
by the corner. RumOrs of loss of life
and of the work of the incendiary were
af1oat. The blowing up of buildings
sent boards, shingles, paper and corri-
gated iron hurting into the air. But
Jerusalem was destroyed. The people
had fed to the noun tains; distress was
in the land.
The origin Of the fire is SAID by soma
On what seems fair if not good authOri-
ty to be the act Of an incendiary, but
this view is not to be accepted without
positive proof.
Only two lives are positively known to
have been lost, while one sick man died
while being moved.

WAS AN OLD OFFENDER
James Scott, a HIghwayman, Walks Into
the Arms of a Sheriff.

Oklahoma City, o. T, May 5:-The
highwayman who held up Fleming and
Antoine Tracy last week was captured
last evening by Sheriff DeFord near his
OeFord's) home two miles west of the
city. He did not call to see the sheriff
and had no particular business in that
neighborhood. When arrested the old
revolver that he used in holding up his
victims was found on him. He gave
his name as James Scott, and stated
that he was from Bastrap county, Tex.
He admitted that he was the man who
did the holding up, explaining however,
that he did not hold up people except
when he was hungry, and that he was
hard Of hearing and could not get work.
He says George Fleming did not know
how much money he had, for the sum
taken from him was 81 % instead Of so
cents. as Fleming supposed. Scott
was arra;gned for preliminary eXami-
nation before Justice Stevenson this
morning ard plead guilty. He asked
10 be taken before the grand jury so he
could b. indicted and then so before the
