men. We have made sincere protests full
of dignity to the United States against
their limoges eliminating Spain and
calling us bloody tigers. in spite OF the no

bans. These proceedings and the language
OF the press are reflections upon the

The Commerce. protests against the in
suIting anti-Spanish attitude OF the Amer
lean press ana its favorable attitude to-
wards the insurgents, and says:
Spain has gained no consideration
through diplomacy, and must in future de-
pend upon material force TO command re-
spect for its rights. Time has shown this,
and teaches Us TO sharpen our nails for
the fray"
The paper criticises the inconsistency
and vacilla-irg policy Of the New York
newspapers and Of the London Times, ana
SAYS:

faith. and ii is time the Span!ards we're
convinced THAI only the army and navy

gan IS already relenJing in MS previous
desire to gobble Cuba, and Is now talking
conservativeiy on the question.
An editorial in La Lurha deals with the
exhortation by the London and Paris press
TO Spain TO deliver a decisive blow against
the insurgents because the settlement Of
the Venezuelan question and Englands
recognition of the Monroe doctrine makes
mediation in Cuba from Washington prob
able as an indirect result OF the Monroe
doctrine. La LuCha says of this view:
The English press has lost its serenity
and good sense and its boasted impartial
ity. Other questions. such as the limits of
Guiana have no affinity with the discus
ell of ba irnf- Gf
Cuba. Since its discovery nobody has dis
puted Spain's right Of possession"
With reference to the argument OF the
English press that the elevation Of Mr..
Mckinley to the presidency Will give an
impetus 10 the Monroe doctrine. La LUcha
expresses the belief that the new presi-
dent will not allow his ideals and pas
sions to supplant his duties as a states
man.

wOMES's NOSES.
4 PhrenoIoGist Says the New Woman
is Developing n Tyne of Her Own.

is Developing n Type of Her Own.
From the New York Herald
The modern woman is developing new
type of nose. or so, at least. says DR.. II.
S. Drayton, an authority on phrenology.
There are really two feminine types. one
is that of the business woman, or the
woman whose lines of life have lain in
professional places. This is the new nose.
The other is that of the society woman.
OF the first nose, that of Mrs Booth
Tucker is a striking example. No danger
of the glasses she wears slipping from
their perch. There is a nostril, too. that
shows the breadth of ambition, and the
conscious power of the owner. 1t is a
strong nose. No one ever saw a weak
woman with a nose like that. 1t constant
ly reminds you that the owner is not to be
tritied with; that it knows its rights. and.
knowing, dare maintain. Any one who is
acquainted with Mrs. Booth-Tucker needs
no assurance that she possesses each and
every quality which the nose indicates
were born in her.
Peculiar callings of women result in
characteristic noses. Take the typewriter
for instance. 1t will be noticed as rule
that her nose is somewhat pointed at the
end, with just a suspicion of an upward
turn to the tip. This must not be con-
founded. however, with the old-fashioned
retrousse nose, because the two are as
different as wax beans and blackberries
This style of nose is also peculiarly notice
able among the women and young girls
who have long earned their own living
Now, take the young woman who has
made up her mind that she is going to
make something of herself in her profess
sion. Not only her nose but her lips as
well gradually show a distinct change
in the alignment of expression. There is
no question that the nose is an Indication
of the intelligence OF the owner.
The nose of the modern matured and de-
veloped woman, such as that of Mrs.
Booth-Tucker shows enterprise, earnest
ness. curiosity, indefatigable perseverance
and an ability to decide a question prompt
ly and finally. Observation, says the phren-
ologist. shows that If this lady shall con-
tinue to take her present prominent and
active part in affairs her nose will take
on a sharper outline. and the rounding
fullness that makes the feature one Of
beauty at present be sadly marred.
The large nose has heretofore been held
to be principally an indication of generos-
ity, although this really has been very
pronounced indication that the owner had
a warm fondness for the material side of
life Under the new Interpretation, how
ever, generosity and materiality have moth
ing to do with it. of course. the big-nosed
woman will be generous. All broad-minded
persons are liberal. She will probably gaze
with kindly eye on the material things of
life, for there is no reason why she should
not
This nose, however. is rapidly becoming
as strong an Indication of character as
the eye. One of these days a brand new
science will make its bow to the world.
1t will be called the science of noses, and
woman will be its chief interpreter and

A few weeks before the national election
Professor Vineard. teacher of civil gov
ernment in the Central high school. had
each of his forty-five pupils in the fresh
man class write out a list of the states
and designate, according to their predic-
ton. the result of the election by placing
under the name of each of the presidential
candidates the names of the states that
would cast their ballots for that candi-
date These were taken up by the teacher.
Yesterday these lists were carefully eX-
amined by Professor Vineyard. who found,
to his astonishment, that one list was ex-
actly correct. according to the returns.
While the predictions on many of the lists
were almost exactly opposite to the way
the election went, this one had every state
in its correct column. The correct list was
made out by Robert Clements, the young
est boy in the class.

William DeVere, the enormous and genial
editor in "A Black Sheep" now playing at
the Grand, has many friends in this city,
where he lived great many years ago.
About three years ago Mr.. DeVere gave a
reading from his own poems at fire depart
ment headquarters, and the entertainment
he afforded at that time Is still remembered
by those who attended. He is the author
of modest little volume of verse which
he calls Tramp Poems of the West" They
are on the Bret Harte order and many OF
them contain genuine merit. all of them
possessing a keen human interest Mr..
DeVere has seen a great deal of the rough

the editor of the Tombstone Inscription"
he is perfectly at home. His portrayal OF
that part is one of the features of the per-

years ago are not surprised that he is now
on the stage, and though he is on the
shady side of the prime of life, there are
those who expect much better things from

now, with such an enormous vote against
the removal, the rabbit diet goes and the
people will have to stand it. Indicative of
the learning and ability of the chef who
prepares the feasts to which the law
makers daily sit down, it may be men
toned that in the special menu prepared
for Thanksgiving at the leading hotel of
Jefferson City were some features of clas-
sification that have caused no end of
amusement to the chefs OF the city who
have seen the card. On the card under
the head of roasts there was given Nal
lard duck. This was followed by oyster
patties, which were classified as game
and concluded with salted almonds under
the head of pastry. This may be taken
as indicative of what feast is at the
capital and from it the general public
may judge of what the everyday menu
would be. Add to that the fact that Kan
sas City people will get the short end of
the meal and there will be enough to
cause everyone to hesitate before arrang-
ing to spend the winter amid the gayeties
OF the capital.

STRIKE IS OVER.
Compromise Expected Between Canadian Pa
cfic and Their TeIegraphers.

Montreal, Oct. THE telegrapher' S
strike on the Canadian Pacific Railway
was declared off, this morning. 1t is
understood that all those operators who
have not performed criminal acts will
be reinstated. The other terms are in
the nature of a compromise.
The trouble was settled by a COM
mittee of the brotherhood of Engineers.
Firemen, Conductors and Switchmen,
acting as a conciliatory medium be-
tween the Canadian Pacific Railway
and the strikers.
Neither strikers nor the railway COM
pany are inclined to give to the public
the terms of the settlement of the
strike and both sides assert that
secrecy in this respect is one of the
considerations mutually imposed in the
settlement of the trouble 1t is learned
that the men will have to apply to
their respective superintendent for re-
dress for grievances which will be
finally passed upon by the higher off
Gals
1t is asserted that the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, Firemen,
Conductors and Brakemen and Switch
men will see that the telegraphers re-
ceive fair treatment in the proposed
adjustment and that the grievances
the company have virtually conceded
as existing are remedied. A committee
will pass on all charges of violence
brought against the strikers.
