KANSAS CITY, Mo, July 19, The
Police Department of Kansas City be-
gan this morning working women

argued that women prisoners kept in
idleneSs were not sufficiently punished
They do rot object to going to Jail at
all; in fact they seem to like it," the
Chief said. The Police Commissioners
have adopted regulations for the limo
vation. The women will wear coarse
overalls, the same as the men. They
will have no skirts to impede their
work. The working of the women
prisoners will be the first effort of the
kind ever made in the State.

JOBS OF CHEMISTS.
The Queer Glass OF Patrons That They
Have to Serve.

| W SCTNts
| Chemists sometimes have queer en-
pcriences. The following facts. says
the Chicago journal, were told by
n professor in one of the western
universities: For about ten years
| l have made speciality of examining
and reporting upon cases of real or sus-
pected poisoning. AS a number OF my
cases have been connected with murder
trials, l have had considerable notice
in the daily papers. This reputation
for making analyses for poisons has
brought me queer class of patrons,
Every year have one or more old
men come to me with samples of food
to be examined for poison. These men.
without exception, have married young
wives, and when the husband is taken
sick and does not recover as quickly as
he thinks he should, he begins TO sus-
pect that his young wife wants to get
rid of him, and is poisoning him grad
ually through the medium of his food.
OF course he does not want his wife TO
know of his suspicious, and he quietly
gets a sample of the food he suspects,
and at some unusual hour for work,
generally either early in the morning
or very late in the evening, he comes 10
me and tells me very secretly that he
wishes to have an examination for poi
son made.
Now, the odd part is that though
have made a number of such analyses,
l have never found poison present in
Gny case. Then the husband is very
much afraid that his wife will find out
that he suspects her, and he gets out
of my laboratory in the quickest and
quietest manner possible. So every
year | expect to see some elderly man
coming pprehensively up my Office
stairs with a wcll-conceaed sample OF
food about him to Oe examined for poi
son. Every year he comes, every year
make my analysis and find no poison,
and every year the old gentleman gets
information that he considers cheap at
the Drice"
