Additional Tax on l;ecr.

CHICAGO, May "A special to the
Tribune from Washington says:
An additional tax of SO cents bar
rel on beer was voted into the senate
tariff bill last night by the republican
subcommittee. Whether the item will
stay until the bill gets Into the senate
is not altogether certain. Senators
Aldrich, Allison and Wolcott pre-
pared for an allnight session in the
hope of getting the measure ready to
report to the finance committee, but
along toward midnight they declared
they could not hope to make a report
before Tuesday. Meanwhile they voted
on the beer tax. The present rate of
81 barrel and the additional so cents
will bring the treasury about S17 ,000,-

sumption.

To Care for ParOlcd Prisoners.

Tho Interior, Chicago, speaking OF
the Illinois Industrial Association,

discharged criminals, says:
"Thc State expends at least SO, 000,-

It spends scarcely anything for their
reform. The association above named
is cndcavoring to supplement the work
of the State in the lust named depart

MISS WARS Ell OF CHICAGO.

take care of herself, but usually takes
a hand in whatever is going on about

A Miss Warner OF Chicago, did this

animal seemed to be ha If starved, and
because he did not move rapidly with

A SOUTH AFRICAN HEROINE.

Wives of distinguished men, but es-
pecially OF travelling and fighting men,
whose career Of personal adventure
demands frequent and prolonged ab-
sence from the homo of domestic
felicity, ought not to be forgotten,
says tho London Illustrated News,
when we talk of the exploits of man
hood. But Mrs. Colenbrander, of
Matabeloland, South Africa, is not a
stay-at-home lady, having been her
husbands constant companion in that
country since he went to Buluwayo, in
1899, to negotiate with King Loben-
gula for the mining privileges, which
we're quickly converted into the terri
torial occupation OF Mashonaland, tho
building OF forts, the organization of
a military force. and finally the con-
quest of all Lobengula's dominious by
the administrators of the Chartered
Company. We believe that Mrs. Col
enbrander, though she rides and
shoots as straight as most men, has
never been present at any of the nctu-
al fighting. She knows the native
languages and the native manners
and character probably better than
any English missonary's wife, and the
natives like her SO much that she had
no fear whatever in accompanying her
husband.

WHY SHE TAKES HIS NAME.

The practice OF woman changing
her name on marriage originated from
q Roman custom, and came into use
after the Roman occupation. says
writer in the Commercial Tribune.
Thus, Julia and Octavia, married to
Pompey and Cicero, we're called by
the Romans Julia of Pompey, Octavia
OF Cicero. and in later times women
in most European countries signed
their names in the same way, but
omitted the ''of." On the other hand,
at the beginning OF the seventeenth,
century, the usage seems doubtful,
since We find Catharine Barr 80 sign
ing herself after she had twice mars
ried, and VIC always hear Of Lady Jane
Grey (not Dudley, Arabella Stuart
mot Seymour), etc.
Some persons think that the custom
originated from the Scriptursl teaching
that husband and wife are one. This
was the rule OF law, 80 for back as
Bracton, and it was decided in tho
case of Won VS.. Smith, in the reign OF
Elizabeth, that n woman by marriage
loses her former name and legally re-
ceives the name OF her husband. The
custom, however, is not universal. In
Spain and Portugal married women
do not take the names of their hus-
bands, but continue to be known by
their own. In many parts OF the
United States woman never relin-
quishes her maiden name, and is
called by it ns often as by
that of her husband. Even in the
rural parts of England one often finds
u married woman called by her maiden
name, and in country districts of Scot
land it is sometimes found that both
names are used. In many parts OF
France and Belgium the husbands and
wife's names are used together when
either of them is mentioned. New
