man-eater shook his head as he ma6e

later he would have shaken himself

Springing quickly forward she grabbed
tho tin water pan and banged Nero on
the nose with it so vigorously that the
tears came into his eyes.
The big beast, accustomed to dress
ings down with red-hot bars and knot
ted thongs was surprised by the novel
ty and unexpectedness of the assault
and instinctively backed toward the
cage. Again and again the tin pan,
welded with all the vigor in Nine.
Pianka's muscular frame, clattered
against his tender nose as he slowly re-
treated in establishment.
Presently Nero gathered himself tor
gether. With a scream that sounded
throughout the building he struck out
with a mighty paw and clutched his mis-.
tress by the arm. The force of the blow
brought her to the floor, and the now in
furiated animal stood across her pros
trate form for a moment preparatory to
dealing her the final blow. The specta-
tors, almost paralyzed with terror,
turned away their heads, but, quick as a
flash, faithful Charlie" Ward Sprang
from the crowd armed with big iron
bar, which he jabbed desperately into
the ribs of the rebellious animal. Sey-
eral vigorous thrusts and Nero was
beaten back into the cage, growing sui

rubbing it across the scratch groove

slightest inconvenience whatever.
The match box itself is but an or
binary small one with a raised but
ton on its inner side. 1t is the head Of
this button which, fastened into the
lapel of the coat, is seen on the outer
side, and to the casual observer appears
to be an ordinary coat button. But
this simple button may easily be en-
larged upon.
Instead of q plain cloth button the
match box may be fastened by an ivory,
silver or gold button, which may serve
as q setting for a large diamond or
other precious stone and may even bear
the wearer's coat-of-arms or mono

PARDY'S RED FOX.
When 1t Lost Its Tail 1t Kept Turning
Somersaults.


Somersaults.
Bill Pardy, o. Wheelerville, n. Y,
came walking down the trail from
0dit's camp, up in the North branch,
the other afternoon, with his rife over
his shoulder and leading full-grown
red fox with a dog chain fastened to
leather strap about its neck. Elmer
Hamlin was leaning against the gate
post, remarks the New York Sun, wait
ing for the horses to finish their oats.
He looked at the fox, then at Bill Pardy,
then at the fox again, before he said any
thing. Then he said:
swell, say; where did you get him?"
'Up by 0dit's camp" Pardy replied
Then Elmer asked how.
Pardy said that his dog had started
the fox over the Big Ash ridge near the
Dix swamp, and he had gone ahead to
the runway by Odit's camp. The fox
came along and he opened on it with his
rife. He fred three times, and then at
last the beast went end over end. Pardy
reckoned that the bullet had hit itIn the
head; so that when the fox kept
tumbling headoverheels he didn't shoot.
When he got to the beast, however, he
found that the bullet had cut its tail off
close and clean. That had made the
beast so light behind that it keeled over
every time it tried to leap, like boy
turning somersaults. Bill took his
dog chain, tied it to the fox, and after
putting his tail into his pocket, started
for home, first tying bag of cartridges
to the stub of the foX's tail so that it
could walk comfortably.

WIDOWS IN WASHINGTON.

1t Is q Gathering Ground Upon Which
Rich Reflects Meet and Scheme.
Especially is it a great place for rich
widows with daughters-that peculiar
type of American women who, as soon
as paterfamilias is comfortably tucked
away under the sod, fly to Europe, spend
years wandering about like social
Bedouins, then are seized with aromantic
form of inconsistencies. But they can't
stand Porkopolis and Kalamazoo and
West Jersey after Paris and London and
Vienna, and Washington affords con-
yenient stop-gap. 1t is American iprlo-
cation, European in habits, and, to de-
gree, in personnel. So they come here,
buy o fine house, get in with the diplo-
matte corps, and the thing is done, says
the Illustrated American. And Wash
ington, which processes lofty scorn for
trade, and r1thlessly shuts the doors of
society in the face of all Washington
brokers, insurance agents, real estate
people, and, in short, trade in every form,
except banking, welcomes with open
arms the retired trades people from
New York, Chicago and anywhere else
on the face of the globe. It PRESERVES the
right of laughing at them, though, and
after faithfully attending all their
luncheons, goes home to roar over every
slip the ambitious host or hostess has
made. This habit is undoubtedly an
affront to hospitality, but it has one
saving virtue-Washington makes use
of rich people, but it is not afraid of
them

IS WOMAN A HUMAN BEINe7
This Question Was GraveIy Discussed at
Bishops Council at Macon.


Bishops Council at Macon.
In these latter days of the Nineteenth
century, when woman is struggling for
an equality with men in the arts and
sciences and in politics, it may be in
teresting to know that as early as the
Sixth century the woman question"
was q knotty problem confronting the
sages of that period.
1t was a more startling question,
however, than that of these days of
safety bicycles and abbreviated skirts.
"Are women human beings?" was the
woman question as formulated in the
Sixth century.
by bishop at the council of Macon, and
the reverend fathers were so amiable
and so liberal as to devote several ses-
sions to the consideration of the sub
ject. They did not disdain the question
as useless or frivolous, but gravely I'M
dertook the task of assigning to woman
her proper place in creation.
With all her faults they loved her
still, and, moved partly, no doubt, by
affection, they generously decided that
she did not belong to the world of NUT
tons, beeyes or goats" but was in truth
a human being.
It must not be imagined, however,
that this advanced theory was forced
upon Christendom, says the London
Mail. The council of Macon was not
ecumenical, and so churchmen were
not constrained to accept its decision.
