BROTHER VETTER,S LESSON

BROTHER TETTER'S LESSON.
 The case of Mrs. Mary vetter of New York is encourag ging to her and her sis ter women, and it is instructive to MT. Vetter and his brother men. MT. Vet ter hasn't really kept up with the times. He has been so busy trying to get 8 living for Mrs. Vetter and the children that he hasn't noticed all the progress pleased with Mrs. Vetter, who, woman
 like, has kept up with the procession much better than he has. The other day he was so disgusted with Mrs. Vet ter's ideas and actions that he lost his placidity and got into the police court, where he was charged with having as- saulted Mrs. Vetter and calling her vile names. In his innocence and ignorance he thought he had a defence, and so thinking he spoke as follows: Your Honor, I am a much abused man. My wife attends lodge meetings four times week and I can't keep her home. l had to give up my job to stay home, take care of the children and cook the meals. I don't like this new-woman business. I am willing to work hard and do what is right, but woman's duty is to stay home and take care of her family. You ought to see the cflii
 dren, Judge. They are dirty and go about uncared for. I tried persuasion, but it wouldn't work, and I had to use force, Judge. I didn't use much force, but just enough Mrs. Vetter turned up scornful nose at this insufficient plea, and calmly explained to the judge that she did go to lodge meetings two or three times a week, being obliged to be present, as she held high offices in various orders. The judge saw the point and fined Mir Vetter five dollars. MT. Vetter now knows that he can't stay the onward march of progress and that he is in luck because his wife doesn't belong to more lodges.

THE TIN PLATE IND USTRY.

It is not fitting that a political cam paign should be carried on without some reference to the tin-plate indus try, which has increased so wonder fully under the protective system. The tariff which gave this industry it's start went into effect eight years ago. In 1889 we imported about 73600O,0oo pounds of tin plate and manufactured not pound. Within the present year, we shall have imported only 172,O00,0OO pounds and manufactured 64O000,0C0 pounds. There are now in operation in the United States 254 mills that make tin plate or terne plate, the latter being the tin and lead-coated sheet used for roofing. These mills are included in 43 different plants, and controlled by 42 different companies. Meanwhile, new tin mines in this country have been opened special impetus being felt in California, Texas and Colorado. But even these new mines have not been able to supply the demand of the American mills, and hence large i'm portations of tin are made from Wales. And this does not tell the whole story. Welsh tin plate manufacturers have been compelled to close their works, and several of them have announced an intention of removing their works to this country. Welsh tin plate work men have been coming to America in such numbers as to excite the jealousy of the labor unions, and Labor Com missioner Powderly has been asked to investigate the matter. Meanwhile. new American mills are building, and new concerns going into business. One of these seems to be controlled by la boring men themselves In all 54 new mills are either in process of erection or else planned for. and two new com panies are in the field. making a total of A corporations engaged in the tin plate manufacture. These figures do not include the Welsh concerns that

oVerfows it's banks because of the melting snows away up in the moun- tains of Colorado and northern Arizo- na and the heavy rains in Southern california. When the water recedes 1t el savesome thousands of acres of rich bottom lands along the sides of the rlVes, an area of alluvial mud, where the Indians plant their mesquite beans and melon seeds for their annual crops, the same as the Egyptians make their annual planting along the banks of the MI when the floods are past. The fertility of these bottom lands has at tracted attention, and in recent years enterprising Yankees have taken up hundreds of acres of this soil, and are growing to a small extent fruits and melons, which are first in the market even in semi-tropical Southern Califor- mia and Los Angeles. The town of Yuma has population of three thou sand. About half of these are Ameri- cans from eastern states, and the rest are Mexicans.
 A large part of the buildings here are adobe-that is, built of adobe mud bricks. They have walls from two to etrhe feet thick, and are one story high. At night every one sleeps out of doors. Many sleep there through ten months in the year. In midsummer no one can we'll endure the heat and closeness of any apartment. The sight that one has as he gazes from two-story building or some eminence in the place early in the morning in summer across the old town would be long remembered by any one not ac- customed to Arizona life and customs. Hundreds of men and women, each stretched out asleep on a cot, may be seen on the roofs or in the inclosures at the back of their respective houses out on piazzas.
 Many of them are sleeping in their clothes, others have a simple sheet as a cover, while little boys and girls are sleeping the sleep of the just without the least incumbrance of clothing or covering. When five o'clock comes and Old Sol rises so high that sleep is longer out of the question, even for the old-timers of the Yumans, there is a general movement on every roof-top and in every yard and piazza of the interior of the domicile for paiment and for morning ablutions. At the railroad hotels all the beds are made up every day in summer on the piaz- gas.
 The diet of the, people in this land of adobe and sunshine is very simple, and the average persons knows nothing but of green corn and such fruits as apricots and peaches are very abundant and cheap. They are eaten by every one. Dried beef, venison and mutton, brought down from the mountains, are in every home and there are all man. ner of Mexican dishes and soups that

above cloth skirt. Two bodices are often planned for one skirt Thus a lovely gown with sheath -hipped skirt was golden brown cloth, the close-fit- ting coat lined with black and worn over an orange cloth waistcoat dotted with black. The other bodice to match the skirt was set on yoke of black liberty satin heavily braided with gold edged braid. There is fancy, too, for having skirt and close bodice, which may be waistcoat front, topped by black cloth jacket lined to harmonize in color with the rest of the gown. For stout folk this is good idea.
 Despite the mentioned tendency to- ward having several bodices for a skirt which is reversal of our former fam cy-bodice-fo any-skirt rule, the bod ices and skirts of many new gowns are very closely matched. A case in point is the dress shown here, the harmony between the two portions standing out especially clearly because of the gowns simplicity. It seemed especially mark ed, too, because the repetition of the bodices trimming that the skirt bore "dS at US very leill, I1edNy pdle Dlue chenille edged this scalloping, and on the skirt was stitching by which a Spanish founce was initiated. Tur- quoise blue velvet was used for the belt, and golden brown ladies cloth was the dress goods.
 Your fashionable exquisite is to have her shoes made on a private last this winter. She declares that only so can she be fitted comfortably, and is quite oblivious to the fact that she used to squeeze her toes into just the smallest thing she could get over them. Now she maintains that unless her foot is comfortably fitted she is perfectly mis- erab1e, adding that a squeezed foot is horribly vulgar anyhow. This last mo- ton of hers will be endorsed by women who can't have even a small part of a shoe shop exclusively to themselves.

every one, even the most recent arri-. val from New England, eats with pleasure in these heated days. Alco- holic stimulants are no doubt drunk more generally in Arizona and all the mining localities in the southwest than anywhere in the east, but the drinker must exercise prudence in his drams in the famous hot towns, such as Yuma, Phoenix or Needles for the intense heat has greater effect on person in a state of alcoholic intoxication than on any one else. The sudden death of a hard drinker in a period of unusual heat is common in this region.-Corres- pondence of the Boston Transcript.

KANSAS SALT.

There has been some doubt whether Kansas has enough salt to save her, but she certainly has T great deal. Professor Erasmus Haworth, of the de- partment of geology and mineralogy in the Kansas State university, has been Investigating the Kansas salt industry and he finds much that is encouraging. Kansas first entered the market with her salt in 1888 and that year sold 155,- 900 barrels at $1.22 a barrel. In 1897 the output had increased to 1,224,eSO bar rels, which sold for a little more than thirty cents a barrel. There is perhaps no other product in the world that has cheapened so much In so short a time. The product finds large market in
 Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa and Oklaho-
 ma, much of it going as far north as
 Minnesota and as far south as Texas,
 while west of Kansas and the States named nearly the whole of the salt uSeu COIIleS lIOlll hdHSdS, chCCpLlh6
 that supplied by California, Utah and

 nually, of which Kansas produces S1a per cent. At present the only mines | and factories in operation in the State
 are those at Hutchinson. Lyons and l Annapolis, where vast beds are found | of a thickness of from six hundred to one thousand feet. There is abundant evidence" says Professor Haworth, that during the Permian time large bodies of ocean water were cut off from the main ocean and were evaporated almost to dryness, so that the salt was
 precipitated from the concentrated | ocean brines."

A railroad chaplain, probably the only official of the kind in this country, if not in the world, is employed by the Denver and Rio Grande. He is the Rev. John Brunton, and a service of thirty years on railroads as engineer and conductor, before he became cler- gyman, gave him special training for his present duties. His time is devoted entirely to the service of the company, Among his duties are attendance on the sick or injured employees in the hos pitals rendering assistance at wrecks, officiating at public meetings in charge of the company and looking after a reading-room for the employees of the company at Pueblo. When he is not engaged in these duties he spends his time among the men in the shops or on the road or track, often interceding for discharged employees and exerting what effort he can to reform men who have habits which interfere with their ser vice to the company. He supplies lit erature to employees on request and car ries in his pockets a supply of tickets good for a loaf of bread or a cup of cof- fee at bakeries and restaurants along the line. These tickets are for persons in straitened circumstances.

The schoolmaster there, as is common in Germany, is at the same time organist and sexton of the village church. For four generations up to 1895 the office had been held by the son. in-law of the previous holder. Then a married stranger was appointed, but he lost his wife and has just married the widowed daughter of his predeces- sor, thus carrying out the village tra- dition in the fifth generation.

According to statistical returns the suicide rates per annum in million of population have risen during the past thirty years from sixty-seven to eighty six in England, and from forty to for ty-four in Scotland. But the senior commissioner of lunacy for Scotland asserts that the tendency to conceal the occurrence of death by suicide has di- unfinished since insanity has become more recognized as a disease; and this, combined with other reasons, leads him to believe that suicides as whole are not increasing, as statistics apparent ly indicate.

If the Emperor of China has lost his life he hasn't lost much. When he was the boss he was forced to get up at 2 o'clock every morning. An hour later he closeted himself with his ministers, and until was occupied with matters of state. Not until did the iron rule of court procedure allow him to break his fast. He dined at from the worst served table in any palace. Red tape so ordered it that fruit would often be in season for a month before it found it's way into the royal menu, which was always prepared weeks in advance. Strict etiquette provided that everything must be served in pairs, and if the lord of all China, who was fond of good living, should chance to eat a morsel too much of any one thing that dish was forever forbidden by the doc tors, who were continually in attend ance.

In the divorce suit of Essie Carr against Edward Carr at Fort Scott (Kansas) the other day curious ante nuptial agreement was presented to the court. The agreement was in writing and provided that if the wife wanted to indulge in such amusements as the club, sewing society and afternoon teas the husband was to be allowed the priv ilege of drink once in awhile and an occasional hand at poker. It was not in the testimony that either party abused or tired of the agreement, the divorce being granted on quite another ground.
