One of the daughters of ex United
States Senator Ingalls,, who is very
proud of her father, recently attended
a semi public dance. An amusing in
cldent took place, which The Kansas
City Times tells as follows:
In the course of the evening she
was approached by an Atkinson
young man, the son of grocery
keeper, who had known her from in
fancy, though not intimately. He
asked her for dance, when she re
piled, as she drew back little super
ciliously: Il think your are the son
of our grocery-keeper, but | infer that
you do not know Ine l am the daugh
ter of Hon. John j. Ingalls," In
gals? Ingalls," musingly inquired
the Young grocery man; where have
/ heard that name bsfore? Oh, yes,
L remember now. Your father was
the man who reported the Corbett
FltZsimmOns prize fight"

''N )thing could be better for human

clares in To-day, than that woman
should take to smoking. 1t is soothing
to the nerves. and women suffer from
nerves more than do men. Tobacco
brings broadness, tolerance and kind
ness.
MANY home would be happier if a
woman, when she gets worried and dis
traught with the petty cares of domes-

Spanish and French SwordswOmen.

Spanish and French women of the
higher class are usually expert swords

carefully and accurately as their broth

the two countries where young women
are taught not only to fence, but to
handle the broadsword. 1t is consid

ENGINEERS AND ACCIDENTS,
A Supa-sa:tion About Three Times
and Out."

A man employed in one of the rail
way offices in Washington has for years
been collecting newspaper accounts of
railway accidents of all kinds, says Lo-
connective Engineering. He now has
thousands of these narratives, and from
an attentive study of them he has come
to the conclusion that no locomotive
engineer ever came alive out OF his third
disaster. This is all nonsense. of course.
but there may be basis to truth in the
calculations.
1t seems that this belief is widely
held by engineers themselves, and the
maker of the scrapbook asserts that it Is
so well supported by experience as to be
almost as demonstrable as the law Of
gravitatiOn or any other natural regula-
ton. He does not insist that engineers
are never killed in their first or second
accident, but he does maintain with
great seriousness that the man who has
had two "close calls will if he is wise
abandon railroading and make his liy-
ing some other way. 1t is not difficult
to see how such a superstition should
have arisen, for the chances that an
engineer Will three times survive the
perils of collisions and deEailments.
greater for him than for any one else
OF a train, are manifestly close to the
vanishing point. To suppose that his
danger is greater in the third than in
the first wreck is. of course, merely an
other form of the delusion that ''luck
is bound to change"
