A Milliner's Dr,imm or.

Women have long been drummers
for articles of female apparel. Many
milliners. send their representatives
from one small town to another to
take orders for hats and bonnets
Such women have a right to be en-
rolled in the noble army Of drum
mers without further question.
knew a milliner's drummer once,
says Charlotte Adams, In the New
York Journal. l met her at New
York clearinghouse. She was very
pretty girl and she wore pea.green
cashmere gown made with slashed
sleeves and plenty Of diamond jew
elry. took her to the theater and
ice-creamed her freely after the per-
Torrance. She was also buyer Of
milliners' goods, and her business at
New York was to purchase for half a
dozen business houses. The last
time heard Of her she had taken a
young man to support.
Why, indeed, should women not be
drummers? They are quite as able
and active as the men, and have fal
better manners. They do not ogle
ladies, they do notrun after actresses
they do not run up hotel bills at tn
expense Of their employer and the,
do not buy new clothes out Of tn
money allowed for EXTRAS

The Georgia Outlaw Hanged in the
Presence of About Four Thousand Peo-
pie.
ATLANTA, Ga, June 19-Tom Delk,
the 24-year-old outlaw, was hanged at
Zebulon, Pike county, Friday after
noon.
The execution was private in name
only. About 4, 200 people witnessed it.
The transparent and carelessly
stretched bagging, which enclosed the
scaffolding, and which was supposed
to shut off the shocking sight from the
view of the spectators, would
really have interposed little
obstacle even had not the crowd
spurred on by its eagerness to see the
finishing of the outlaw, torn down the
f1lmsy stuff. This they did and a
CHASTITY sight was revealed. Then. un.
der the blazing rays of the sun, above
the turbulent sea of faces, Tom Delk
kicked out his last breath As the
drop fell mighty shout went up. Pike
county was delivered of its former ter
ror and the murder of Sheriff Gwvnn
was avenged.
