There Is Nothing New.

Apparently we have not learned 50
much during the last few thousand
years or so as we fancy we have. Prof.
w. M. Flinders-Petrie, the eminent
Psychologist, has been telling an inter-
viewer of various odds and ends that
he has unearthed from time to time
in tae buried cities of Egypt, where
men and women lived and loved. and
scheme and fought nearly four thou
sand years before the Christian era.
Among these items were rag dollies,
no doubt Rugged and rocked to sleep
by little Cleopatras every whit as af-
fectionately as the waxen babies made
in Germany are today fondled by our
small Dorothys and Phyllises. There
were draught-boards, too. and fishing
rods, babies rattles, whip-tops and
tip-cats, and many a domestic article
that we have nowadays in use. What
Is more, he and his learned compan-
ions were able to discover from the
skeletons of men and women who had
lain for considerably more than four
thousand years asleep within the
tomb" that we moderns cannot even
lay claim to a monopoly of such dis
eases as rheumatism and spinal cur
Nature, and ricketts,. The penny-in-the-
slot-machine, we now know, is nothing
new; next we shall hear that the mo-
tor car provoked the characters to
mirth. as an ancient comic papyrus OF
the period shows, when Seneferu. first
king of the fourth dynasty, was on the
.hrone considerably before Joseph was
,nld into bondage.

THIEF IN THE FOUR HUNDRED.
New York Society Startled by the Pres
ence of Woman Culprit.

New lOrk society SuarJleu ny bhS EoS-
ence of Woman Culprit.
New Yorks four hundred is greatly
disturbed by the presence of a thief
an unknown woman thief-within its
inner circles.
During the past winter thefts have
occurred at select functions in widely
separated points along Fifth avenue
and the adjacent fashionable side thor
oughfares, where it would have been
impossible for an ordinary thief to get
his nose inside the basement door. Cost
ly wraps have been claimed by some
particular guest and worn away as her
own. Valuable sealskin coats have been
appropriated by this guest, and their
rightful owners have never seen them
again. In one or two instances costly
sealskin wraps have been taken from
the cloak room at private dances, and
comparatively poor garments left in
their places. Several society women
have leagued themselves together for
far they have not succeeded in catching
her. In fact, theft of the kind was
committed week before last under the
very noses of the matrons who had de-
termined upon the capture of the Gull
prit. No clew has been found to the
identity of the aristocratic culprit save
a handkerchief marked "F'" in one cor
ner. 1t was in the pocket of cheap
fur cape which was left in the place of
an elegant sealskin garment worth

ed into two distinct processes, block
Ing" and stripping" Blocking con-
sists Of pruning vine as nearly as
possible without the removal OF any OF
the brush. II requires long experience
To do the work rapidly and we'll. The
primer estimates the probable capacity
of the vine. compares the values Of the
canes which may serve as bearing
wood the next season, removes those
which are least desirable, and shortens
to their proper length those which arr
to remain.
Stripping. as it's name suggests. con
sists Of forcibly tearing off the trellia
the several parts OF the vines. These
are thrown between the rows, TO be
removed either by wagon or by drag
ging through the vineyard a pole IS
to rs feet In length. by means OF a
chain attached TO 1t at a point about
six feet from one end BY this latter
contriyance nearly every cane is caught
up. Although these two terms apply
particularly to the methods commonly
practiced In eastern vineyards, they
also stand for similar processes where
a vineyard trained upon the horizontal
arm system is under treatment. But
with this system the blocking of the
vines Is a comparatively easy matter.
Assuming that the vines thus far con-
sidered in detail have passed their third
season OF growth and are In readiness
for their next pruning. the work is
done as follows: The canes which |
have been matured from the buds upon
The arms OF the vine must be spurred |
back TO about too buds each. This |
doubles the number OF buds upon the
plant as compared with the preceding
year, and consequently doubles the
Yield for the fourth year. In case the
trms from adjoining plants do not ex-
end TO each other, the cane formed
rom the last bud upon the arms must
% bent down to the lower wire and
led. so as to extend the arm to the
lesired length. The framework Of the
line is then complete, and after strip
ling the vineyard Is ready for Its
'rowth of the fourth season.
The pruning for the fifth season is
Practically the same as for the fourth.
here are, however, two canes to be
hortened where last year there was
ut one The buds may be reduced to
he Same number as before by cutting
no cane away entirely and reducing
he other to two buds, or the number
lay be increased by leaving both
anes. In this way the number OF buds
lay be controlled at will. After the
apacity Of the vineyard has been de-
'rmined the pruning becomes less
lnieult operation. The canes are each
sar cut back TO the same number of
ads. as already described But the
'ntinually lengthenlng branches soon
'come unsightly. and they must be re-
'wed by young shoots from their
Uses. Occasionally the branches are
lowed to become much longer and
UGH more irregular. On this account

BIG DOG DAY.

Treasurer waikup Sells Lot of Copper
Tags.
Yesterday was another big day for
dogs and dog licenses. City Treasurer
Walkup again sold a large number of
the little copper tags that entitle their
weaTers to exist without fear of moles-
tation by the alert and greedy dog
catchers. Yesterday was even bigger
day than Monday in the dog tax line
and to-day Will probably prove the big
gest of all. for now it has been seen
that the city authorities mean business
from the word go.
Yesterday the dog catchers started
out in their war upon the dogs. This
part of the work has been placed un-
der the control of Joe Mestes. who has
been in the dog catching business for
many a long day. joe has an able as
sistant in Joe Bart. who is himself no
novice at the business. There is prob
ably no dog catcher in the business to-
day that can hold a candle to Joe Mes
ties for strategic and rapidity of dis
patch. Joe was the official dog catcher
of Spokane a year or so ago, and in
that city he gathered in 1,4oO dogs in
the neatest way possible. Later ne was
engaged in the same business in Butte,
where he made himself thoroughly dis
liked by every unlicensed dog.
The dog catchers are paid for each
and every dog they bring to the pound,
regardless of whether their owners re-
deem them or not, and thus 1t VIII be
seen that it would be a losing PROPOSE
ton for Joe to play any favorites. A
spring wagon upon which Is fixed a
wire cage has been placed OF the dis
posal of the dog catcher and when a
dog without a tag is seen, the wire
moose shoots out and he is whisked into
that cage in a manner only possible by
a man of Mestes' experience. Yesterday
the AT work in the east end
of town and when night came there was
a big crowd of CANNES in the pound
The dog catching work is considered
by Mr.. Mestes To be a good thing and
he is doing what he can to push ii
along.

The Popular Comedy To be Given as "A
Benefit To the Football Team.
The play that will be given by home
talent for the benefit of the football
team has been selected. IL is The Pri-
waite Secretary" u comedy that has
for years been considered one of the
most successful plays of its kind ever
written THE Private Secretary" has
been before the American people for
years. but whenever it is presented, 1t
is ALWAYS greeted with full houses.
The selection Of this play by those
who have the matter under charge is
Il fortunate one.
Several Of these who will take part
in the performance have already been
selected 1t is desired to, SO far as
possible, secure the services of those
who have had previous experience in
amateur theatficals. and with this OBJ
ject in view the management has not
been hasty in soliciting persons to take
part in the show. il is the intention 10
give a show that will draw on its own
merits and not through the personal
popularity of the actors. The play Will
be produced probably about Feb. y,
which date is the anniversary of Wash
ington's birthday. No positive an
nouncement Of the date. however. has
vet been made, as Il is proposed to have
everything in the most perfect shape
before putting ON The Private Secre-
tary." and this will be done II it takes
three months at rehearsals.
