WOMAN AND TATTOOING.
Feminine Interest in a Gruesome
Maori Collection.

An exhibition of tatooing on view at
the Guildhall Free Museum in London
is attracting much attention. Strange
to say, women are more interested in
it than men. The collection consists of
examples of ancient Maori tatooing
lent by Major-General II. CT. Robley.
Perhaps their interest is due to the
fact that tattooing is "A fad among
European women at present; or it may
be wOman's instructive love of the
gruesome that attracts her to such ex-
hibts. An English paper. in speak
ing of the collection, says this:
Mako as it was called by the
MaOris, was an art practiced by this
race from the earliest ages, its records
being preserved in the embalmed heads
of chieftains, departed relatives, or
prisoners taken in war, which it was
the custom TO hand down as heirlooms
from one generation to another. The
first embalmed head obtained by Eu-
rOpeans was procured by Banks in
100. General Robley, who is the au-
thor of a work on Mako, or Maori
Tattooing,' is the pOssessor of an al
most unparalleled collection of these
strange relics, including heads of war
riOrs, ladies, and even infants, many
of them in perfect condition, though
upward of 100 years old. The form of
the features is retained, and the mar
Vellously intricate designs of the tat
tooinG are i'm perfect preservation. The
practice of the art of mako was a rec
ogniZed profession among the Maoris,
and was carried out according to given
| rules, each series of lines having a
distinctive name. Sometimes the pro-
cess was performed by means of in
| dentatiOns in the skin. almost resemb-
ling carving, at others it was more
coarsely executed One of the heads
in General Robley's collection bears
distinct evidence Of the touch of two
different hands. One cannot but re-
| fleet admiringly on the fortitude of
| those who voluntarily underwent the
torture that must have been inflicted
The collection further includes sketch
es of various fashions in tattooing, and
curious specimens of ancient Maori
charms, implements, and efigies
| carved with mako designs"

the guest of the Misses Drnker, on
Madison avenue. Miss Dietrich was
formerly an assistant in Mr.. w. G..
Parke's office. Eight years ago she de-
terlnined to become a foreign mission
airy and the scene one Sunday in Grace
church when, after the confirmation
services, she arose and went to the
altar alone, and there, standing before
the bishop, solemnly consecrated her
life to mission work, was so impress
sivc as never to be forgotten by those
present. Miss Dietrich is Il frail little

She will remain a year at home and
then proposes to return to the work of

nfcipality. The time has come when
tives of the agricultural community
should have proper hearing as well
az a standing before this capital city.
A plan is now in process of forma
ton which shall provide a sufficient
area and in an acceptable locality for
the location of a gardeners market in
the city. Last March The G o b e sent
special correspondent to Kansas
City to investigate the system prevail
ing there respecting this subject. Kan
sas City and st. Paul are possessed of
a population almost identical in num-
beTs, but the community of Kansas
City is so far ahead Of st. Paul in its
treatment of this important element of
commercial endeavor that the people of
this community ought to hang their
heads in shame on account of their
shortcomings. Kansas City has
city market which makes a return to
the municipality of about 5000, after
deducting ali cost of management, in
Guiding the salary of the market mas
ter, the janitor and the scavengers who
have to attend to the cleaning UP Of
Paul should not be equally advanced in
this line of improvement. All that is
necessary is a homogeneous co-opera-
ticn. Minneapolis is, year by year, at
tracing to itself this very branch of
trade so important to st. Paul, not
only as a community which absorbs,
but one which ought to be an important
shipping point to distant localities.
The G l O b e would respectfully rec
ommend to the citizens of st. Paul
careful reading of the article by their
special correspondent sent to Kansas
City for the specific purpose Of inquir-
ing into the subjects of the city market
and public library, which articles ap-
peared in the issue of The G l o b on
March q and April 8, respectively. In
these two articles the schemes for the
accomplishment of two important re-
suits of great municipal worth are il

New MARKET House Plans

The commercial club, or a committee
thereof has just now under considera-
ton a plan for the Improvement of the
gardeners market system of St. Paul
This is q subject which has agItated
the people Of this community for quite
a long while. The fact has been strong
ly presented that St. Paul has been
most deficient in the matter of provid-
ing proper stopping place for the
truck men and market gardeners who
of right enter the city TO supply the
needs OF the community in the partic-
ulGr lines of produce which they are
IN a position TO furnish.
There is no city on this continent
which has paid so little regard to the
requirements of the market gardeners
as ST. Paul. These men for the past
three years and more have been driv-
ing in 10 st. Paul during the early
hours Of the morning, anywhere be-
tween midnight and the dawn of day,
without any knowledge of where their
teams might be hauled up for the dis
tributlon of their merchandise.
Tie whole business of treating with
this element of industry in the outlying
country is a reflection upon the mu-

DIES MONIES, To-, Nov. 23.-AThey
talk a good deal, but they don't give
much. Twenty-Five cents is about their
size.''
So spoke Simon Cassidy, treasurer of
the Associated Charities, at a confer
ence Of the council of that organization
with some of the preachers Of the city,
the subject being the preachers request
that the charity ball be abolished MIR.
Cassidy, who is one Of the leading bank
ers OF the city, was led to make this
remark by the assertion of Rev. H. o.
Breenden, pastor of the Central Church
of Christ, that many Christian people
had declined to support the Associated
Charities because Of the proposed char
ity ball. Mr.. Casady took issue with
this statement and said few of the con-
tributions came from the members OF
churches as such.
The preachers were repeatedly asked
by the members of the council to make
some tangible proposition as a subst-
tute for the charity bail, but they had
nothing but generalities to offer, say
ing they would urge their congrega-
lions to contribute directly.
Maj. Hoyt Sherman, president Of the
organization, read a statement of the
1eCeiPie VI lHS AsSOcidlHu OHdI1IiSS
from church collections. He showed
they amounted to not more than S120 in
any one year, and in one year only to
So. The church collections, he added,
had been discontinued, they being so
small. The charity ball, on the con-
trary, brought from 500 to 1900 net
every year.
There Is little doubt that the ball viii
be given. The council is unanimous
about 1T, since no definite proposition
can be secured from the preachers.

Episaes to St. Paul.

Rev. William Wilkinson, of Minneapolis
gentleman and politician, who has been
anticipating a venison Thanksgiving dinner
may have 20 eat plain, ordinary turkey. The
venison is in Minneapolis all right, but it
isn't in MIR. Wilhnson's Ierder. The yenison
arrived Tuesday morning, as Per schedule
and when Mr.. Wilkinson took visit to the
express Office he considered with complacency
the pleasure of his own family and those of
his flock whom he intended to favor with
some of the venison. When he came TO
cain Inc consignment he found the bulky
form of Deputy Game Warden Coffin hover
ing over the carcasses.
The game warden informed Mr. Wilkinson
That the venisOn was contraband, as it
was shipped without being accompanied by
the owner In vain he exhorted the game
warden to release the game. He pictured the
disappointment Of those Of his flock and dis
avowed any iEtentiOn OF violating the law
IN tell Fullerton about this threatened
Mr.. Wilkinson.
80 will T." replied Coffin.
We'll, I'll go over and see Gov. Cleugh'
was the concluding sally of the clergyman.
This was on Tuesday.
Yesterday he paid Warden Coffin another
visit to give that official one more chance be-
fore resorting to heroic measures. Coffin
this time threatened Wilkinson with prosecu-
more than the former chaplain OF the house
could stand.
He first visited Gov. Coughs office and
inquired for The governor. Upon being in
formed that the governor had not been over
since the blizzard Mr. Wilkinson took him
self through the deserted legislative halls
to Sam Ful ertcns Office.
Here Mr.. Wilkinson told his troubles.
Fullerton was in dilemma. The law was
against Mr.. Wilkinson, but "a her than dis
appoint the c.ergymans paIishioners and an
old school friend, he decided at once upon
a plan.
There is certainly some mistake about
this" said Fullerton. and l will go over TO
Minneapolis with you and straightsn out the
matter. Coffin has certainly made a mistake"
Why. of course he has l told him So"
said Mr.. Wilkinson "a friend of mine at
Grand Rapids promised me a couple of deer
several days ago. and l received notice on
Monday hat the deer had been shipped"
Fullerton heartily agreed with him that It
was very bad form for a game warden to
seize a gentieman's dinner, and augmented
his assurance with promise that the mat
ter should be Strengthened out.
Upon their arrival at Minneapolis matters
were net so easily adjusted. Deputy Game
Warden Coffin could not be found and the
express company had released the game Mon
day. Mr. Coffin was reported TO have gono
20 saltwater to eat his Thanksgiving dinner,
and unless he is found this morning the
venison dinner of Mr.. WilkinsOn's will be Of
some ether kind of meat.
