REIoNs WITHOUT WOMAN.
Baxroa Land where Aase1llnS WN

Bsrrsa Land where Mass.liss WIN
Rules Supreme.
There Is at least one tiny section
of the globe where women are conspic-
uously absent from society and where
man reigns supreme, undisturbed by
the vagaries and caprices Of even q
single woman's will. There is only
one territory Of any size-and never
has been but one-occupied by any
considerable population from which
woman 10 absolutely excluded. Yet
such q place exists today and has ex-
listed for centuries. As far back rs
history reaches to all females It has
been forbidden ground. This country
without women is situated on q bold
plateau between the old peninsula of
Acte, in the Grecian archipelago, and
the mainland. Here In the midst Of
cultivated fields and extensive wood
lands dwells q monastic confederation
of Greek Christians. with twenty-three
converts and numbering more than
1000 souls. Not one Of the monster
tes dates from q later time than the
twelfth century. A few soldiers guard
the borders Of this land. and NO wom-
an is allowed to cross the frontier.
Nor is this all; the rule is extended to
every female creature, and from time
immemorial now COW, mare, hen, duck
or goose has been permitted to enter
this territory.

HOW SPANISH" PAY" SOLDIERS


SOAsS 20 toO C0sO0OsS O00 These OMe0KB
"Do' the Rest.
Spanish army accounts are strange
~ and wonderfully made. From their
absence of exactness and disregard Of
all detail one would certainly be lead
to believe that the bookkeeping de-
partment Of the Madrid war office has
few clerks In its employ. A certain
amount of money is allowed to each
regiment and charged in gross to the
colonel, who Is solely responsible for
Its disbursement. According to an ex-
planation made recently by the Mar
quis OF Montoro. secretary of the treas
urer In Havana, this lump sum of
money covers the entire expenses Of
the regiment, from uniforms and
equipment to soldiers pay. Each resi-
mental colonel Is his own bookkeeper
and paymaster. He practically sells
to his soldiers at his own price every
thing that they have while they are
In the service of Spain. The pay Of
q common soldier Is about $3 In gold
per month. Against this is charged

ample, suppose q soldier needs q new
pair of shoes. he makes his wants
known to the colonel, who hands him
a pair and takes s. or - out of his
wages. The shoes may not have cost
the colonel more than $3.50. which he
paid for out Of the regimental funds.
Out of one of his own men, who has
left home and family and everything
for his country. he has made 100 per
cent, by turning over government cap

When the time for final settlement
comes the soldier is quietly told that
there Is nothing to his credit on the
books Of the regiment; that his
great and good government has taken
care Of him for three years, and has
allowed him the privilege Of fighting
for It, and that IL he doesn't have .

heretofore worked very well But this

is charged with q considerable sum of
money for hospital services, and the

centage from each soldiers pay for
that purpose. Another percentage Is
deducted for what In Spanish book
keeping is called "!ncidentals"
