According to an English writer the
typical woman of the United States
today Is a mental anarchist" The
reasons for this are several. She is a
composite of all the races of earth, II
not In blood in points of view. She
is a product of experimental democ-
racy, and, like her country, blindly
but fiercely striving for an ideal. She
has been thrown largely on her own
resources; unlike the women OF the
old world, she has done her " think

finds herself n component part OF a

In Limousin there Is a barren range
OF low hills which lies along the dlvid-
ing line between the departments OF

Limoges, says Popular Science Month
~. The water courses show the Local
ton OF these uplands. They extend
over an area about seventy-fve miles
long and half as wide, wherein average
human misery is most profound. Dense
ignorance prevails. There is more IL
l~iteracy than in any other part OF
France. The contrast In stature. even
with the low average Of all the sur
rounding region, Is clearly marked by
the dark tint. There are sporadic bits
of equal diminutiveness elsewhere To
tho south and west, but none are SO
extended or so extreme. Two-thirds
of the men are below five feet three
inches In height, in some Of the COM
munes. and the women are three or
more inches shorter even than this.
One man In ten - below four feet

due to race. for gaveral racial types
are equally stunted a this way within
the same area. Tt IS primarily due to
generations OF subsection to a harsh
climate, to a soil which is worthless
for agriculture, to a steady diet Of
boiled chestnuts and stagnant water,
and to unsanitary dwellings In the
deep. narrow and damp valleys. Still
further proof may be found to show
that these people are not stunted by
any hereditary influence. for 1t has
been shown that children born here,

Women Who Kept y seeret.

That women can keep n secret has
been proven In n case In court at Lath-

women destroyed a saloon, and q
charge OF malicious destruction Of
property was lodged against them. An
exchange notes that as many as thirty
were arrested; everybody present at

Of the county strove for two years to

Much more important than the gown
itself Is the trimming thereof. One
girl who has a gown Of last season
improved its appearance In the fol-
lowing manner:
The bodice was black and had a
short yoke OF pale yellow silk. To
conceal its shabbiness she covered the
entire bodice with a diagonal lattice

stunning.

ORGAN RECITAL.
A Musical Treat by James Hami1-
ton Howe Last Night.

Lovers of music were given a rare
treat at the Sixth-street Methodist
Church last evening, when the POSSIBLE
tiles of the organ We're brought out by
DR.. James Hamilton Howe. formerly
of Boston, now of San Francisco.
The regular evening services We're
preceded by a solo, Holy Father" by
Mrs. Frances MOeller, which was eff
fectively rendered and thoroughly ap-
preciated by all present Both words
and music We're written by DR.. Howe,
who played the accompaniment Mrs.
Moeller was in fine voice. and her many
friends united in saying that she has
never surpassed her effort of last ever
ing.
After the conclusion of the regular
service, DIR. Howe gave an organ re-
cital, the programme of which ap-
peared in yesterdays issue of the Rec
Ord-Union." DR.. Howe is we'll known
as a master of the organ, and the Sc
lections rendered were of a high order
and excellently executed. They were
selections from one of the oratorios he
has given many times, not only in Cali
fornia, but in the East, and one of the
most important was Mendelssc I'm S
Sonata in G Minor" the fugue of
which came out especially clear.
The variations on America and
Home, Sweet Home were especially
enjoyable, and after the conclusion of
the services DR.. Howe was cOngratu-
lated on their happy rendition. The
recital closed with a concert piece in

A Would-be Suicide Falls Into a
Peaceful SIumber.

There came near being a tragedy in
the City Cemetery yesterday, and doubt
less would have been had not the per-
son chiefly concerned imbibed more Ii
quor than he could manage.
A couple of ladies who were in the
cemetery, awaiting the arrival of fun
eral cortege, saw a man lying across a
grave with a pistol in his right hand.
They supposed him to be dead. They in
formed Undertaken land CoroneD Clark
and Rev. Mr.. Mel of their discovery and
the gentlemen went to investigate the
matter.
They found that the man was former
Sacramentan, who came to this city on
Saturday for a short stay. He was lying
across his wife's grave and was in a
stupefied condition from drink. They
got him up, placed him in carriage and
sent him to the home of a friend.
The man had, in his irresponsible con-
dition, no doubt intended to take his life
while lying on his wife's grave, but went
to sleep instead. Later in the day he
was all right, and intended departing

THE CORKERS WILL RETIRE.
KNOCKED OUT OF THE TOUR
NAMENT BALL SERIES.
The San Francisco Team Was
Quite Too Much for Them
Other Games.

The California Markets were too
much for the Corkers yesterday, and
Won hands down. In the first inning
they led off with six runs, and were
never headed. In the fourth inning
they got another bunch of six runs,
but outside of these two innings the
game was finely contested, and abound
ed in many brilliant plays
Iberg is about the cleverest pitcher
that has played in this city this year.
and at no time during yesterdays game
did he exert himself. He has no un-
necessary windmill motions, pitches
the ball as quick as a flash and inva-
riably just where he wants it to go.
He has a splendid slow ball, and is as
speedy as Hughes. He received fine
support from his backstOp, Peters, who
is one Of the best catchers that has
played here this year.
Goslinsky rivaled Doc" Hennessey
at first base, and made several phe-
nomenal pickups of low-thrown balls
Monahan did a great deal of unneces-
sary kicking, and succeeded IN getting
himself disliked by the spectators All
in all, the visitors far outclassed the
Corkers. and won on their merits.
The home players, despite their new
material, played their usual uphill
game. Their new pitcher, Mcnamara,
was hit hard and often, and was really
responsible for the loss of the game
He had not played ball for more than
i've weeks, and was in no condition to
pitch against such a hard-hitting team
as the Markets. Mcnamara has the
qualities for a successful pitcher, how
ever, and when in condition will bear
watching. He fields his position much
better than any pitcher in the tourna-
ment, and won deserved applause by
his fine backing up
In the eigth inning Rice went in to
pitch for the home team, and had great
success. In the two innings that he
pitched, but one hit was made off his
delivery, and he struck out a batsman,
besides assisting three others out at
hrst In the last inning he made a
wonderful one-handed stop of a hot
grounder and retired the runner at first
base
Billy Newbert played a fair game at
third base for the Corkers, and made
the greatest catch of a f1y-ball vet
made on the home grounds. A high
Il,
and Billy, after a run Of fully fifty
yards, just managed to reach out one
hand for the ball and got it. 1t was
a great CATCH and won for him much
deserved applause.
Harmon, in left field, made several
pretty catches, and did some heavy
batting Romeo Barry umpired the
game. His decisions were Invariably
correct, and the bluffing of Monaghan
had no effect on him whatever.
The game was delayed some time on
account of the manager of the Markets
demanding $75 above his expenses be-
fore he would allow his team to play
After much wrangling the matter was
compromised, and the game went on.
After the fourth inning not much in
terest was taken in the games, as the
visitors were so far ahead, yet the !, 100
people present remained until the last.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Charles H Yales brilliant production,
The Twelve Temptations, will be at
the Metropolitan Theater this and to-
morrow evenings. 1t is said to be by
long odds one of the best spectacles now
commanding attention. Mr.. Yale wrote
the story of the play, dealing interest
ingIy with love- elfin Vaccinations, ad-
ventures at the north pole in quest of
wealth supposed to be buried there,
pantomime and spoken fun. The plot is
developed by a thoroughly competent
dramatic organization. The premieres

Basseggio italian ballet S tars, while the
grand balIets are under the direction of
Signor Aurelio Coccia, one of Europe'S
great ballet masters. The large ballet
troupe is composed of young and shape
ly women specially selected for their
grace of movement and terpsichorean
accomplishments. The speciality people
are the Rosaires in amusing acrobatic
feats; John Harry in a wondrOus exhi-
bition of juggling; Josie Sisson and Gus
Bruno, Jr., in their chanson characters

features of the piece are Yale's descrip-
tive songs, all over the Bridge" is a
realistic and cunning ditty descriptive
of the hosts of quaint characters passing
across Brooklyn Bridge when the sun

A meeting is to be held at 1:30 this
evening at Pommer's Hail. Ninth and j

ton 1t ought to be large one. There
are plenty of good voices in Sacrament

in view, and unite for the credit of the
city and its musical tastes. We could
pick out 1915 voices in this city, twenty
of them equal to solo and mixed voice
