that their infamous conduct
is becoming known to the
American people, in spite of the press
censorship and the efforts of the mine

realization that they will not be per-

use the power of the United States

that their arbitrary reign must soon

The new woman is so much OF an
I outdoor woman that she is rarely the
victim of the complaint to which Wom-
zen Of a less energetic age were sub
ject. &SSY Yet "house nerves" used to be
a specific complaint recognized by doc
tors. It's victims were always women.
Never was a man known to suffer
from the ailment. Only the women
who stayed at home felt the effects of
it, which came wholly from lack Of
sufficient enjoyment of out-of-door life.
The amount Of time which women
sometimes spend indoors -. astonishes
them when the hours are estimated by
physician. The results of the dis
order were usually depression and
nervousness, which manifested them
selves quite as other nervous ailments
do. 1t was surprising how frequently
young women complained OF these dis
comforts, although the majority of the
sufferers was made up Of old women.
House nerves are q thing OF the past
now,'' said physician the other day;
"the exact opposite is the trouble now,
even if it has not yet received name.
Street nerves would, suppose, be the
right thing to call it. The only wom-
en- who have house nerves nowadays
are the kind that cannot get out OF
the house much because they are either
i'll or old. have never seen anything
to equal the desire of women to be

don't know when they are ever at
home. 1t is not enough that they go
out Immediately after breakfast, and
again after lunch start On a round of
visits or shopping or something that
keeps them until nearly Z. They must
go out again Immediately after din
ner, if not to the theater, to some
substitute for it. That is the daily
course Of most young women I know,
as well as Of number who are not
so yOung-whO are at least old enough
to find some comfort in their homes.
But the whole tendency of their lives
is to get out of the house as soon as
they can in the morning and stay out
until the last moment. Maybe this is
only a passing tendency among wom-
en- likely to continue no longer than
the conditions which created house
nerves. Perhaps the new state of at
fairs is better, although I am not so
sure of it. The fact is that one is as
unnatural as the other was. Both are
too excessive to be advantageous. The
house nerve epidemic did not continue
so long as this one. Women are said
10 be stronger to-day and generally
healthier than they ever were. So I
suppose the new disorder has bet
ter effect on their constitutions in the
long run than the old one did.

and vine-clad cottage. ~, ~
AS the two children were ct play one
morning a lady, with the indubitable
toothache symptoms Of swollen face
and hand pressed to cheek, alighted
from vehicle before the gate and
asked to see the doctor. Deciding to
apply the only infallible remedy, and
wishing to get the best light upon his
patient, that gentleman asked that she
would take her seat in the front door
way, resting her feet on the upper step.
But here a new d14dculty arose. The
improvised dental chair provided no
support for the head, and, summoning
the little visitor, the operator directed
him to stand behind her, put his hands
on either side of her face, and let her
brace herself against his shoulder.
Il did as I was told" continued the
narrator; ''but at the first twist of the
.old-fashioned turnkey the patient ut
tered a yell which, never having heard
an Indian war whoop, thrilled me with
horror, and, deserving my post, I fed
in dismay. In an instant George was
in my place, and can see now the set
look of determination upon his face
and the resolute pose of his sturdy
little figure, as with the lady's head
pillowed upon his breast, he grasped
an ear firmly with either small hand.

New Blasting Powder.

Australia has produced cricketers
and scullers, and frozen meat and
irish M. P.s, and now it has produced
a new explosive, the name whereof is
kallenlte.' The advantages of the in
vention are claimed to be numerous.
and it is worthy of note that it has
obtained the approval of the govern
ment of Victoria, and mining man
ayers assert that after blasting with
it men can 60 back to work in the
races more quickly than after using
any other explosive. 1t contains no
non-explosive material, whereas No. 1
dynamite contains rs per cent, gelig-
mite per cent and blasting gelatine 2
per cent. The government chemist
calculates that it possesses five or six
times the strength of No. 1 dynamite.
Moreover, it can be manufactured at
very low cost. Its absorbent material
basis is composed of eucalyptus and
ti-tree leaves, which are almost as
common in Australia as blades of grass
are in England. The remaining in
gradients are, of cours, as yet a trade
secret. A most successful experiment
was carried out quite recently in Sgd
ney. The minister for works and
Others who observed the experiment
carried out from a. safe distance, were
all well impressed with the power of
kallenite, which is claimed to be an
entirely Australian composition. It is,
stated that when the government tests
are complete, if the new material is
finally pronounced to be as excellent
as, it now bids fair to be, manufac-
tory for its production and export will
be- established in Sydney.-London

Alfred Dolge's Career.

It is a strange coincidence that the
Armour felt and curled-hair works
should have burned just as Alfred
Dodge, founder of Dolgeville, N. Y, and
former millionaire, had arranged to-
make new start in life by taking
charge of the plant. Dolge's career
has been a romantic one. He arrived
in this country a penniless emigrant
boy. Thrift and hard work made him
prominent as a manufacturer, and.
finally he went up into the foothills:
of the Adirondack mountains, bought
a huge tract of land and started the,
town of Dolgeville. The firm of Alfred
Dodge & Son was interested in nearly
every enterprise in the village. They
controlled six or eight factories, ran
weekly newspaper and became famous.
as the leading piano felt manufacturers
of the country. Among their many
employees they put into practice sys-
TEN Of profit sharing. The firm also
furnished life insurance and gave old
age pensions to deserving employees.
Dolgeville was much like a patriarchal
community, with Alfred Dodge at the.
head of it. After the failure of the,
firm creditors began supplementary
proceedings which left Mr.. Dodge prac-
tically without means. The burning
Of the Armour works must therefore
come to him as severe blow. His
son, Rudolf Dodge, is now the agent Of
some American manufacturers in Cara
cas-, Venezuela. -. "

Senator Davis Speaks.

Whatever criticism may have to say
against Mr.. McKinley's reticence con-
corning pronounced Philippine policy
the same cannot be urged against Sen
ator c. K. Davis. Yesterday afternoon
he addressed the members of both
houses of the Minnesota legislature
and to his utterances there was no I'M
certain ring. He boldly came forward
as the avcwed champion of imperial
ism in it's broadcast sense. He spoke of
the capture" of Porto Rico and the
Philippines, and his assertion that the
American people would never surren-
der them was received vociferously by
the Republican members present The
tenor of the entire speech was strictly
in line with the idea that what Eng
land, Germany and France had done,
America could also do. and do it better
in the long run, no matter whether it
was waging desultory warfare in far
distant chimes or opening up important
trade relations with the Orient.
That this speech of Senator Davis
was a semi official utterance, and in
spired by the administration. cannot
we'll be doubted. 1t sounded like the
challenge of a powerful cOnqueror
voiced by his imperial herald. There
were no reservations; no timid quib-
bling or lf-hearted faltering in the
announcement that the United States
had, practically, determined to be the
whole thing" 1t was bold annunci-
alton of an administrative policy
sharply defined by one who has en-
joyed most favorable opportunities for
knowing just what that policy is.
There was. however, one trif1ing slip
in the logical sequence of the address.
Early in his opening Senator Davis
gained applause by declaring that Por-
to Rico and the Philippines would new
err be surrendered. But toward the
close of his remarks he advanced the
idea that If in the fullness of time the
Filipinos should develop a capacity for
self-government, we, as a nation, might
stand aside, and. with a broad mag
nanimity. permit them to go it alone. 1t
is difficult to reconcile these two con-
fiicting positions, at least difficult for
those not so closely in touch with the
Republican administration as is Sena-
tor Davis.
