Dueliing on bicycles.

Duelling on bicycles is reported TO
be new division in Spain. Two
members of the Bicycle Club of Gren-
ada recently met in knife duel,
which is probably the first encounter
of the kind ever fought on wheels.
Accompanied by their seconds, they
wheeled out some distance on the
road to Malaga, to a secluded spot.
There posted 700 feet apart, at a sign
they wheeled toward each other, di-
recting the machines with the left
hand, and brandishing in the right
that terrible knife of Spain-the nav
ala. At the first clash, Perez pierced
the hand OF Moreno, but at the third
encounter Moreno thrust his knife in
to Perez's left breast In few min
utes the latter died of internal hemor-
rage,

Passing of the Old Lady.

Where are the grandmothers OF
tradition-the snow-haired, white
capped gentlewoman to whom us chill
dren we were taught all Difference
should be shown? Look about you
she is nowhere to be seen. Alas, the eli
xir of youth, or more properly speak
ing, the artificial mask of the real
bloom and beauty, has tempted the
ageing woman to assume that which
she should gracefully relinquish, and
the true grandmotherly type, with
soft shawls, fine laces, artistic caps
and heart in tune with the morn
ing of life though the body bends I'M
der the shadow of eventide is gone,
more's the pity.

Now that cows are on dry feed care
should be taken to give them plenty
of water. AS the weather becomes
colder the water should be warmed.
1t requirs large amount of water in
some shape to supply all of the mois-
ture that is evaporated from the body
of the cow by breathing or through
the skin, and also to provide for the
milk supply. More cows are dried off
prematurely through giving cold wa
ter or water in insufficient quantities
than through any other cause.

Hongo, Tokyo, Japan, Letter.-It is
justly remarked by some Ameri-
can writers that all the industrial
devices which have cost generations
and millions to develop in Europe and
America, come to us, japanese, ready
made. The same can be said, we
think, of the solution of the labor
problem. Follies and mistakes that
were made by western workers stand
ample warning for us, and if we but
heed them the path of labor emanci-
patton in this country will present
quite a different picture than that of
western countries.
While it is quite true that we have
adopted the Manchester doctrine of
cheap labor in conjunction with the
Manchester factory devices, the evil
consequence of which is apparent at
this early date of our factory system,
as witnessed by the horrible condi-
tiOns of work eXacted from factory
operatives, child labor, ETC., yet pre-
cedent experience warrants us in en-
tertaining a cheerful view for our flu
ture industrial career. 1t is now axio-
matte with the labor movement that
the peaceful solution of the labor
problem can come only through Or
ganized effort on the part of working
people on the one hand and through
understanding Of the labor movement
on the part of employers on the other.
With lack of one or the other of these
fundamental elements, the labor
movement can never have "a smooth
sea" in any country. II this be true,
what can we say of our future, when
we, at this early date of modern in
dustrial regime, observe these two
fundamental elements in evidence?
Though they are insignificant at pre-
sent, they are bound to assume much
Importance in the very near future.
Nor is it matter of mere conjec-
ture. 1t was only last July when an
association under the name of Rodo-
Kumiai Literally trans
lated, Association for Encouragement
anu Il VI VI duCo OHIOuS) was
formed in this capital city with the
avowed purpose to encourage and as
sist the formation of trades unions,
that powerful and only agency for up
lifting the working people.
This association made, during its
brief existence Of two months, gil
gantic stride in its membership, which
now is 450 The members are all
working men of various trades, each
of whom is pledged to make a deter
mined effort, backed by the whole
strength of the association, to organize
his own trade when sufficient number
of workers of said trade are enrolled
in the association and stand stead
lastly with the organization so formed.
The association is now hard at woS.l
to educate and familiarize these dis
ciples of the labor cause to every
phase of the labor problem, and it is
expected that few months in this
"trades-union school" will work
wonder upon the intellectual power of
these disciples.
The phenomenal growth of the as
ISOLATION and the good work it is I'M
dertaking speak much for the future
Of the Japanese labor movement.

To wish a woman grievin'

To think the weather's cloudy.

Until they tell you "Howdy!"

When she's away night swaps with day
An all the flowers stop CROWN;

In that away-to miss her:
But-bless her soul.-jest can't control
The wish to hug an kiss her!

months later went back to Marysvire,

daughter of Judge 2. b. Cole, of Ohio.
Miss Cole had been Fairbanks class
