THE GIRL AND HER COLLEGE.
dOubtedIy of Inestimable Bene-
fit to Her In Her Home Life.
panion.

1t is sometimes argued that the col
lege units a woman for domestic life.
That is true, think. only so far as
a girl can or cannot adapt herself from
one condition to another. The differ
ence between the college and the home
is simply the difference between all
training and real work in the world.
If college course is rightly under
stood and taken advantage of, it will
prepare rather than unfit girl for
the wisest government of house. IT
she has used her time and opportuni-
ties at college well, her training of
system and discipline will prove of the
first importance to her in conducting
the domestic machinery. Aside from
the direct application of her training
vantage OF resources of mental refresh
ment when moments of leisure come
to her. The domestic courses. now
being so generally introduced into the
curriculum of our girls colleges, also
give practical value to college edu-
cation for girl which it did not possess
a few years ago. The value of these
courses lies in the foundation which
they give girl to build upon.
All things being equal, college train
ing is unquestionably a source of in
estimable value to girl, as it is to a
man, and she is the better equipped for
her duties of wife and mother because
of it. knowledge is always valuable.
Yet 1t does not, by any means, follow
that girl, unable to go through col
lege, is at a disadvantage with her
girl friend who did. Where it is feas-
ible and possible it is an excellent part
of girls equipment and its advantages
will come back to her in a thousandfold
in her future years. But in the ma
jority of cases college training is not
feasible or possible. If going to coll
lege simply means to a girls mind
the fun to be had it is infinitely better
that she should remain at home. If a
girl is inclined to be selfish, and hun
gers simply for a brilliant career, it
is wiser that the softening influences Of
home remain her portion. If she is
physically not strong the home care is
thousand times better for her than
the best care she can procure at any
school or college.-Edward w. Box, in

THE G1RLHooD OF YESTERDAY
Old-Fashioned Propensities That the
Twentieth-Century Maiden
Might Well Revive.

Arabella Is safely shut away In an
old daguerrotype, and there is nothing
left to her memory but few dead
rose leaves and the fading dreams In
the hearts of the old. But we would Of
fer to her memory tribute of praise
for certain ''sweet endearing young
charms" which are almost lost arts
at the threshold of the twentieth CEN
tury.
True, Arabella was a pale, faint star
in the brilliant light of the new girl,
and yet, looking into that old daguer-
reotype Qn just the right line OF VI
sion), one sees some sweet, old-fash-
ioned propensities which have been
banished to the cobwebs and dust OF
age, but which even the proud new
girl would do well to adopt.
If 1t is old-fashioned to be modest,
then 1t is grand, good old fashion,
and we need to dig it up out of the
past and give it genuine nineteenth
century "boom." Old-fashioned gowns,
old songs, old plays, are born again
after years of burial, and delight new
generations. Happy if some oid-fash-
ioned virtues long abandoned and for
gotten might be resurrected and be-
come the rage! Is there anything so
refreshing (and so rare) in this weary
world as sweet, unaffected, modest
youth? After the cheap Jests and
shrugs and mannerisms of society, a
pure, frank, unspoiled manner is like
sunshine on the waters of brook aft
er the yellow glare of gaslight. Ara
bella was won't to in state of sweet
receptivity and absorb the eloquence
of man, which, though perhaps inglo-
rious, was at least restful. Therefore
she had that pearl of all manners
repose. The new girl, on the contrary,
Is all the time making palpable eff
fort to sustain her reputation for bril-
liancy. Now the conscious effort to be
continuously witty and entertaining
may be as trying to the nerves as those
deadly pauses which occur between
ideas (and which unqrestionably oc-
Cured pretty frequently between the
ideas of our lost Arabella). The girl
who is determined at all hazards to
fill up silence and takes that task
wholly upon herself is sure to become
exhausted and exhausting. Isn't the
new girl, by demonstrating her power
to do anything, in danger of having
everything thrust upon her9-Carrie

TREASURES FROM THE DEEP
Cannon Raised from a Vessel That
Was Sunk Over Three Hum
dred Years Ago.

A very curious cargo was lately
brought to Cork on the steamer May
flower. 1t was nothing less than a
dozen cannon that have been raised
from the bottom of the sea In Dunwor-
ley bay, off the coast of Cork, after
having lain there for upward Of 300
years. For the past fortnight diving
operations have been going on in Dun
worley bay with view to the recovery
of certain treasure sunk in Spanish
vessels that went to the bottom over
800 years ago.
The facts of what led up to this re-
markable discovery are of interest. 1t
appears that two well-known Cork
gentlemen, Messrs. j. Mulcahy and L.
R. Holland, received precise informa-
tion about two Spanish ships-one of
them pirate-that were lost in Dun
worley bay over 800 years ago, and,
after consulting with Mr.. Ensor sal
wage contractor, of Queenstown, who
placed his diving gear at their disposal,
they formed n small syndicate to ex-
plore the bay and seek for the treasure
of the sunken ships. They secured for
this purpose the services of Mr.. Pat
rick Collins, diver well known in con-
nection with the raising of the light
ship Putin, that foundered some time
ago off the coast of Cork, and placed
the superintendent of the operations
in the hands of Capt. Jeremiah Collins,
an able and experienced navigator,
with the result that the sunken Span
ish ships have been discovered and the
dozen cannon brought to the surface
and landed at Cork. The information
received by Messrs. Mulcahy and Hol-
land as to the whereabouts of the
sunken ships was evidently most per-
feet, and very little difficulty was ex-
perienced in locating the vessels at the
bottom of Dunworley bay. 1t is now
believed that ere long there will be
brought to the surface something of
far greater intrinsic value than old
cannon, and 1t is intended to employ
dynamite to aid in securing the buried
treasure which the sunken ships are
reputed to contain. The cannon are
in wonderful state of preservation,
after being 300 years in the water

Suicide Near Lenapah.

The Co ffeyville Journal says A.
J.Raney. highly respected citizen
of that section, committed suicide
early Sun day morning at his place
two and one-half miles east of
Lenapah and fourteen miles south
east of G Coffeyville. Mr.. Raney was
living OH place he rented from J.
Randolph Wells and it was there
that he shot himself. He was
found at daylight and had evident
ly been dead but short time.
The weapon used was revolver,
and the bullet went through his
heart and lung, coming out
on the left side of his back.
The only cause known for the
suicide was his i'll health. For
some time he had been unable to
sleep and it is thought that he had
become desperate and decided
to end his troubles by death.
Mr.. Raney was well known and
highly respected in Coffeyville.
he lived for many years on an
eighty acre farm a few miles north
east Of town and was considered a
well-to-do farmer. Then be sold

THE CHEROKEE COUNCIL.
Prospect for Treaty Commits
sion Very Slight.
TAHLEouAH. Nov. Il,

TAHLEQUAH. Nov. IA,
The Cherokee council is still
struggling with the treaty question.
All of today was taken up in dis
GUESSING the various features of the
proposed bill. Many of the full
bloods sought information as re-
garded the possible good that might
result, and the treaty men were
very diligent in their efforts to ex-
plain and convert them.
There has been some work done
on the matter of providing for
ways and means to hold the elec-
tions next August, and this too is
meeting with considerable opposi-
tion-those opposed to it, holding
that any amendments to the old
election laws, making them con-
form with the provisions of the
Curtis bill, will be equivalent to
an admi ssion that all the Cherokee
laws are repealed by the Curtis
bill.
The public debt is also coming
in for its share of attention, and
the chiefs recommendation that an
appropriation be made from the
invested funds to pay same is
meeting with much favor. This
debt is something like 100000,
and the councillors are very anx-
ious that something be done with
regard to getting rid of it.

Rat and Snake Kept House Together

Potomac river, near Williamsport, and
proceeded to chop it into firewood.
While in the act of splitting the log he
was surprised to see snake, three feet
long and large rat occupying the
same nest in the hollow of the log.
Both rat and snake, which seemed on
very friendly terms, attacked Mr.. Gar
rish. The snake coiled for spring,

up his pantaloons leg to his waist. The

A dispatch tothe London News agency
from Paris last Monday said: To-day
the conference reached a crisis for the
first time. Judge Day presented the
demands OF the American commission
in threatening words. He said that
delay was the only possible object at
tainable by the presiscnt efforts OF the
Spanish commissioners to saddle the
United States with the Cuban debt. and
would be tolerated no longer. as the
United States would neither assume nor
guarantee any part Of the debt.
The Spsniards replied that this placed
Spain in a position 10 repudiate or Of re-
ducing the face value of the Cuban bonds
from 50 to 60 per cent. paying only half
the stipulated interest on the reduced
value. Before they would adopt either
alternative they would surrender to the
United States the entire philippines.
Judge Day responded that the surren
der Of the Philippines would probably be
demanded irrespective Of tho Cuban or
any other debt.
"Thif, to the Spaniards. the first init
