wlLES or X WOMAN
Lawyer Talks of Her Ways of En-
 trapping Rich Men.

A well known lawyer. whose exper-- ence is ripe, leaned back ia his office chair the other day and said to 3 friend:
 Its surprising how many tricky women there are now
 The lawyer paused a moment and then resumed q had a queer ex- perience with woman myself the ether day and the only thing that saved me was that I was not rich. 1 client of mine, woman about 90 years old, was sitting in my private office just about wher you st now, within few feet of the desk. when she suddenly said: Do you know, f you were. a r.ch man, I'd scream as loud as I could and arouse all the ten ants of this building. When they ran in to see what was the Elattsr I'd tel them you were trying to take advant- age of me
 T looked up at the woman in aston ishment and from the vicious snap in her eye I saw she meant what she said She went on to tell me that she thought Dr. Lowry was served just right and that Mss Smith had man aged her case well and that she would like to see more men get treated ir that way.
 While she was talking I looked at the closed door that separated me and the woman from witnesses. and deter mined in my mind that If I were rich, I would never admit a strange woman into my private office except in the presence Of my stenOgr2 pher or office assistant"
 The lawyer said he had said nothing to provoke such a remark from h.s woman client After she left he con cluded that if she were so unprincipleel as that he would TO longer act as her attorney and so notified her by letter.
 Tt is ? fact" said the lawyer, that very wealthy men never trust them selves alone with a woman they do not know. They always talk to them in the presence of witnesses. Of course, with lawyers. it Ss, almost tmpossi ble to do that. Many woman who wants to bring suit for divorce is squeamish about it and doesn't want any one else but her lawyer to hear what she has co say. Such women it is absolutely necessary to talk with privately
 Several damage suits that have re- gently been brought by women against wealthy men. but which have not come to the attention Of the public, were referred to by the lawyer. Hsi ex- p-ained just how and why these partic- ular suits that came within his know3- edge happened to be brought.
 ''I know of dozen CT more such suits within the last year" he said ''th2t nsver got beyond the lawyers office The men against whom they were about to be brought simply pre- ferred to pay few hundred dollars and settle the thing, rather than hava . public scandal. :-Kansas City Jour- nal.

WHITE RATS"
< Noted Tramp Who Claims to Belong
 to an Aristocratic Family.

Antorao Pasqual, universally known as White Rats" arrived in Denver yesterday from San Francisco. In the great army of indige1ts Pasqual stands alone for the uniqueness of h;s meth eds He has a dozen white rats con- stantly in his possession, and says he is q d5aleT m these animals. yet he was never known to make s5le. \ smooth, oily tongue, q pers.stency that $ deserving of praise and faculty to make heartre nd .ng appeals for aid are his stock in trade.
 You wisha to see da r3tta?" he says
 It will cost yoE anywhere from , cents to 9 to say Yes
 Pasqual is a typical Italian Il ap- pEarance. ragged in dress. and is prin- cipally distinguished by the small box he carries slung from his shoulders. The top of the box is used as T prone made by three CT four rats-pure, snow white with red eyes. The rodents are not 6 lit averse to being handled, even by strangers, but if you touch them it will cost you more than the price of 2 look"
 But t is not in rats alone that Pas quai's fame lies. He claims to ba the prOdigal son Of one of the most aris- tCcTat.c families of Italy. Pas1UaI has only one and one-half arms. and was born that way This he gives as his reason for being an outcast. Had he been whole he would now be enjoy ing spaghetti. maccaIoni and garlic under the blue skies of sunny Italy, in stead Of prEtending to sell white rats His right arm ends at the elbow joint.
 h his broken English Pasqual tells the story of a curse which rests upon his family. Fer seven generations one son n every generation has basn born with only half a night arm The unfortunate mus live as an outcss1 to avert the visitation Of revenge upon the other members of the family fer a sin committed in the middle ages. That is the way Pasqual tells i to In- srire pity.
 The ''outcast'' business has proved profitable to Pasqual. for besides mak- ing a living for himself, he is said 10 have handsome bank account in San Francisco He says it takes him eight months to make the tnp from coast to coast, and that he is now on his cIsv- enth trip.-Denver Republican.

CHfcAGo's POPULATION.

The unofficial police e1umsra ton published in the Daily News of yester- day shows population of 100000. and no one who has watched the signs which tell of a c;ty's growth will quss- ton the substantial accuracy of the figures. But for all that. thsir sig ri1cance is, perhaps. not generally comprehs1ded. Chicago is SO used Jo growing that she pays little attention to the feet
 Even now the worlds fair is com monly regarded as a sort of climac- tsrfc point n the clty's history. One might say t was during the preDara- tion for the fair that Chicago first paused and took stock Of herself. P5r- haps the public mind was then firsl fully Impressed with the tremendous fact of Chic2 go's rapid growth and with the collateral fact that the growth of the corpo1eal side, in streets, houses, parks, waterways, tramways. etc. had been haphazard and without plan.
 But Chicago today is just twice as big as when the preparations for aSs

SMOKING IN CHURCHES.
Instances in, Which This Practice Has
 Been Authorized.

Although not exactly . popular GUS
 tom, smoking n churches has been and is more largely indulged n than is generally supposed. The custOm is Dutch, that people being more lnvetsr-
 ate smokers and rarely seen without their pipes. They even indulge n 1t l in their churches, and spittOons are frequently provided for the better ac- cOmmOdation of those members of the congregation who cannot deny them selves the enjoyment of a smoke \ similar practice exists in several churches in South Amenca. Smoking ! in churches n this country is said to have been prevalent in the last years of the sixteenth and the beginning Of the seventeenth century. A one time smoking was carried OF to such an ex- cess in Seville cathedral that the chap ter applied to the pope for power to repress the abuse. Urban VIII, yield ing to their wish, issued a bull. which
 was promulgated on January 30. 1642.
 In Wales smoking in church was m dulg6d in 2s late as 1850. h one church the communion table stood in the aisle. and the farmers were n. the Eabit of putting their hats upon 1t, and when the sermon began they lit thsir pipes and smoked, but without
 any idea of irTeverence. IL $ also stated that when the. archbishop of
 York was on 3 visitation in St Mary s. Nottingham, he ordered some of his attendants to bring him q ripe. to-
 bacco and some liquor in50 the vestry for his refreshment after the fatigue
 of confirmation, but the rector would
 not allow il to be done IL was re- ported recently that al Presbyterian

The growth that occurred from the beginning up to 1880 has been nearly duplicated n the last ten years. h 1880 there WAS rs- grst that tn the rapid building, better thought had not been taken for he flu ture Yet beween thet day and this, another Chicago almost as largs as the city of 1890 has grown up here. And the population is even now fl- crsasing at the rate of about 100000 a year.
 These are the facts that tell so im- peratively n favor Of energy in the undertaking of a number of projects like the subway to connect the north and south boulevards, the improve ment Of the lake front, the building Of 2 permanent exposition structure, and the deepening Of the harbor. The future man for whom these things must be done arrive while the plans are being drawn.-Chlcago News.

Just at present Arizona seems to De a fayorite ground for these wildcat companies. and especially for that class which are trading on the repu5a- non of established mines. One con- spicuous offender of this class Is the = Copper King of Arizona, which has advertised extensively and has sCdt- tered prcspectuses and circulars all over the country Thts company l5 trading on it's similarity in name ard the neighborhCod of it's claims 10 the Copper Queen m.ne, although the own CTS of that and other properties h3d long ago prospected theN district tho . oughly. and would certainly have talk en up any claims of value, had thay eG- isted there This company not only trades on the similarity of names, but illustrates it's circulars with views Of the extensive buildings of the Copper Queen, thus attempting a{ deliberate fraud upon the readers.
 We find other instances of trading on name and proximity, without gong outside of Arizona, and although n these cases we have not be9n able as yet to make the necessary tnVesug3- tion to prove their worthlessr4ess, they are at least destitute of all proved or developed values, and at the yery best offer to the buyer of tneir st9ck gan- bles of the widest kind. Thete is also the presumption that the neiEhboring companies which arc operating on large scale would not leave valuable properties which they could hbve cas- fly secured for themselves at the slight expense of locating little exp,oTa- tion and assessment work. Tn this class we have the Arizona Copper syn dicate, which has claims at Clifton n5ar the well known Copper Company and a whole group-the United Verde Jqnior, the United Verde Extension and the Val Verde-whose Pnly dis tinction is that they are neal w. \.

MEXICAN MINING LAIws.


 As the mining code Of Mexico differs materially from our own, the Bisbse Orb presents for the inform3 or of it's leaders the following sumniary of it's requirements with respect tb the Iuc3- ton and possession of minds:
 Any person, foreign or cttizsn, can locate as many claims or f.7art men ciaS'' as he feels ahle = h,dd1dIe. each claim being one hundted meters square; provided. however,. that no fore. .gner can locate miRej in lhe free zone. for distance of ffty-rwo miles from the boundary line. without oh tain:ng special perm issioh from the government of Mezico.
 Having made his locations ne rre- eents a petition to the rhining agent of the district in which they are situ- ated, asking that they bel adjudged to nln n accorda1ce with the proV:s- ions of the law The fees fer registry. publication, stamps. etc. should mi exceed SIP (Mexican), but generally about thrice this amount. the official schedule being adjusted No suit the climate. If the petition ks admitted. as 1t usually IS upon payment of the fees, it is regularly filed for registry. and within thrse days thereafter an order for survey is issued
 Theoretically. any cCmpktent encf- neer can be selected to make the sur vey, but as the question of icomDsts1lcv my cause complications. it is better n accept the party recommended by he district agent. When the survey is ra- turned the agenl makes an extract rom the registry and causes it D ha published in the official paper )f the state, citing adverse claimants fo aD- pear ard show cause, as fn. the case of United States patents.
 At the end of four month it IS rhe duty of the agent to forwa d. D ina federal department of public works 2 transcript of all the proceedi, gs. and Ii these are found to bs rag1lar. and the stamp duty of $10 is r.he9m;ng the title $ issued
 The cost of surveying IS generally S15 for each claim, when there are many, the minimum cost of a survey being $100, but this expense is affected by distance and other variable con ditions
 The only limitations to the absolute ownership to mines is an obligation to pay the annual tax to the fsderaI gov ernment of SIC per annuin on each claim. payable every four months. If this is not paid promptly. q maximum extension of three monthsj IS granted on payment of fines of 25t 50 and 100 per cent additional for each month re- spectlyely. and a complete failure to pay is held to be an abandonment of the property, which then reverts to the public domain
 The state government collects. a maximum tax of ? per cent on the gross products of the mines (which c7n be avoided by letting them lay idle) and S6 par s1 900 on the assess valUe of improvements. The assess ment is made by an official exper: ap- pointed for each district.

NEW STORY ABOUT coNsuELo.
She Would Not Sell Lace to the Pr.n
 cess of Wales.

The Duchess of Marlborough has two very pronounced testes-fine jew els and rare lace This fondness which her grace displays was doubtless inherited from her mother. who $ ex- travaganily fond of costly lace, and from the time little Consuelo, the pres ent duchess, was born her mother was collecting rare lace for her daughters rousseau.
 The lace which her mother collected for her and which the duchess took 10 Blenheim was valued at over $100 0G0, and since then her grace has more than doubled her collection and it's value.
 Onca she possesses a piece of lace nothing will tempt her to part with it, and it is said she frequently looks over and fOndles her treasures as a niser does his gold
 Here is an instance to the point The Princess of Wales is a great friend of the little. American duchess. and they are intimate and informal in th6ir relations. The princess $ also devoted to old lace, and the duchess spent an entire afternoon oDca show ing her treasures to the princess.
 In the lot was one very rere ana wonderful piece of old Italian lace, which had once been part of 3 pope's or high priests robe. The duchess bought it when she was ;n Rome on her wedding journey, and paid an enormous sum for the riece The lace is eXqaisitely wrought of fine thread in q design of flowers and scrolls. and ths princess was greatly taken with it. She asked the duchess if she could be tempted to part with it to any one. and h . T o17 {,
 Tie princess sad no more at the time, but the next day her royal high mess sent her equerry to state that the princess would be willing to give the duchess exactly double the price she paid for the lace, and ask if her grace would let her have it as a personal favor.
 The duchess has a good deal of the old commodore n her composition. with any amount Of American inds- pendence. and where any other peer- ess of the kingdom would have sent the lace post haste and deemed it an honor to be allowed to do So, the Amer-can duchess returned a note say ing that nothing coald make her change her mind, not even were Mari borough house to be offsred in. return.
 The duchess latest investment tn lacss makes it doubtful whether So costly and ambition an order was ever given. before, unless. perhaps, by some French queens of long ago.
 The lace in question is beng made by the most accomplished French weaVers, and t is nlne rieces. It is not to wear, but consists of six cur- ta.ns, two bed draperies and a coun- terpane, or bed covering When. the lace is finished. which will be soon. l. will fetch altogether the pretty figure Of $10 900.
 The bed curtains will cost g, ,0OG. the window curtains S1,0OO each. and the cou1teTpane the sum Of S2.O00.
 The lace makers employed have worked on these pieces night and day for three years, and twelve more months will be required to complete ,hs orde=. -Philadelphia Enquirer.

N #ae assistance of no foreign DON the event of another war wit fgnglard. yet it's chief, President Kruger, treats the demands of the CO., lonial secretary with the same stolid indifference as he was accustomed 10 do when he had the promise of Ger many's aid. The Transvaal has en- tered into a partnership with the Or ange Free State, a ne.ghboring repub- 'fc. also composed of Peers and CO religionSts, so that when either state is attacked it can depend upon the other for assistance.
