w. &. T. u. COLUMN.
COL. GRANT AND NEW YORK
POLICE.
Motto: 'sGod and Home and Native Land

In New York has just come to light
startling evidence of the outrages
to which disfranchised womanhood is
Systematically subjected by the police
authorities of that city.
Col. Fred Grant, one of the four
police commissioners of New York
City, has resigned his position on the
board, because he finds the methods
taken by policemen in the prosecu-
ton and conviction of women sus-
pected of immortality to be such as his
sense Of self-respect forbids him to
sanction. 1t seems that in order to
obtain evidence on which to convict
such women, policemen in plain
clothing have sought them out, have
entered into improper relations with
them, and then have testified to the
fact-the women upon this evidence
being convicted and sent to serve out
their sentences, while the informers
receive official approval. Of course
this system affords cover for wide
spread, systematic bribery and black
mail. An effort has been made to
bring this evil to the attention of sew
eral societies that do much good and
deserve much credit for the courage
and persistency with which they have
fought vice and crime. No one can
rejoice more sincerely in the good
they do; but there is strong call for
\ -
those that led to the resignation of
Colonel Grant. All true friends of
morality must be with him in this ac-
ton, and honor him accordingly.
All honor to Col. Fred Grant,! His
manly protest entities him to the
hearty approval and regard of every
honest man, and of every self-re-
speeding woman. He has shown
himself a worthy son of his illustri-
Gus father. Gen. U. S. Grant never
permitted smutty stories or improp-
er language to be used in his pres
ence, and when visiting Pompeii in
company with his wife and daughter,
refused to enter alone certain build
ings containing pictures which wo-
men are not allowed to see, remark
ing that what was unfit to be seen by
his wife and daughter was unfit to be
seen by any one.
One of the strongest reasons for
giving women the ballot, is to put an
end to the slavery of thousands of
unhannv woman who ara TO 6av in q
condition infinitely worse than chat
tel slavery. If women voted, Col.Fred
Grant would be promptly sustained,
and no police board would, for a mo-
ment, tolerate such methods.

Fayorite Ernbroideries.

The new cross stitch. we'll shaded and
rich in design, figures prominently in
the holiday work Of those who like to
take their embroidery out of doors in
summer weather, as it neither soils nor
fades readily. Perhaps this is the out
come of the rage for everything pertain
ing to the early part of the Victorian
era that has been the fashion of late,
but in any case it is extremely effective
and will prove welcome to many work
ers. 1t is questionable whether our pres
ent state of artistic culture will incline
our admiration in the direction of moss
rosebuds carried out in cross stitch, but
it is quite certain that the conventional
designs, with their black outlines, will
prove acceptable
These black outlines on teacloths,
sideboard slips and many another knick-
knack for the house need only to be
filed in with soft shades of brown, red,
gold and blue, which are the favorite
colors for this work. The effect from q
little distance is splendid and will be
all the more appreciated when it is
found how little labor is needed to pro-
duCe it.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
An Excellent Idea Tor Bookshe1ves.
Some Favorite Embroideries-A
Useful Kitchen Table.

It is always difficult matter to know
what to do with our books, especially
when we are not lucky enough to pos
sess room which can be turned into
library and dedicated to their special
use.
Bookshelves are easily made, as the
amateur carpenter knows only too we'll,
but different ideas for their manufac-
ture are rare, and there is apt to be
dreary sameness in the rows OF shelves
he turns out with so much patience and
care. An excellent idea for bookshelves
in a room which boasts of several doors,
one of which may be closed without in
convenience, is suggested in The Decora
tor and Furnisher by a contributor who
thus disposed of door which was never
by any chance opened and through
which a cheerful draft whistled and
blew. To obviate this and to hide the
woodwork, which was by no means a
thing of beauty, shelves were fixed at
equal distances apart to the framework
of the door, the breadth of the shelves
fitting into the depth between the wall
and the door. Of course this plan could
not be carried out on the side of the
door which comes fat against the wall
That side, in case of necessity, can al
ways be hidden by a curtain.
The edge of each shelf was finished
off and made to look quite smart by a
piece of dark green leather about four
inches deep cut out at the edge in pat
tern and fastened to the shelf with or
namertal brass nails. The bottom shelf
was fixed about six or seven inches
above the wainscot, and from this cur
tain, run on brass rod, was hung.
forming a convenient spot in which to
stow away guidebooks and time tables
and those magazines and newspapers
which must find a place somewhere
waiting to be bound The height of an
ordinary door is seven feet, SO that the
shelves could be seven in number, with
a distance of nine inches between each
shelf, the space between the bottom shelf
and the floor being q inches, which
would leave plenty of room for odds
and ends and shabby volumes.

WHY HE WAS EXCUSED.

Dennis McCarty, true son of Erin,
was suing his neighbor, William Smith
for damages occasioned by the de-
fendant's carelessness in allowing his
donkey to escape from his stable and
tresspass upon plaintiffs premises,
thus doing much mischief in his gar
den. McCarty stepped into the wit
ness box to give evidence in support
of his case, and when he had finished
the lawyer who appeared for the de-
PENDANT proceeded to cross examine
him.
"Now you mean to say that all this
injury to the property of which you
speak was caused solely by Smiths
donkey?"
'Sartainly, sor.'
'tOh, indeed; and where did you
first see this animal which you declare
has been the source of so much mis-
chief?''

him?D
"On my premises, to be sure"
The lawyer now saw his chance, and
in his best manner pressed the ques-
ton.
CHOW did you know it was the same
donkey?'
Chow did know?" was the deri-
sive exclamation. ''If I saw yez tied
up in sthable, don't yez suppose I'd
know We when yez got loose?"
The plaintiff was excused from
further evidence.

Writing of Alaska in the Century

'sThe climate of all that portion of
the coast that is bathed by the Japan
current, extending from the southern
boundary of the territory northward

distance of nearly $500 miles, is re-
markedly bland and free from ex-
tremes of heat and cold throughout
the year. It is rainy, however, but
the rain is of good quality, gentle in
it's fall, filling the fountains of the
streams, and keeping the whole sland

more delightful than the shining

round sun days of June, July and

and even as far south as Sitka and
Fort Wrangel it sinks only a few de-
grees below the horizon, SO that the
rosy colors of the evening blend with
those of the morning, leaving no gap
of darkness between. Nevertheless.
the full day opens slowly. At mid
night, from the middle point be-
