How Trusts Operate.

One of the greatest evils in connection
with trusts is the power they possess
to depress the returns of the producer.
Whether the raw material take the
form of the workingman's brain and
Drawn or the products of the farms or
mines or the forests, it is all the same.
Ultimately the profit must come out of
the class that gets the least. No Won

News has been received from Mountain

six men are already dead. Mountain
Home is far from railroad or telegraphic
communication. No less than six sturdy
mountaineers in that vicinity have been
suddenly stricken and died in great agony,

like manner have only been saved by

near Mountain Home, and one day +. l..
Hayes, prominent Zinc-mlne owner, died
in almost the same manner as the others,
while at nearly the same hour and only
short distance away John Fout died in
the same sudden and mysterious way.

were convinced that the men were the
victims of some powerful poison. An in
vestigation showed that in every case the
men had been Frustrated Immediately

BILE, but have heard of more than one
case when a foreigners official position
has been lost owing to his Wifes indls-
erection, though he, and his wife also,
may be entirely ignorant of the cause Of
his dismissal. In appearance Japa-.
nese woman is smaller and Of slighter
build than a European. Many are dis
tinctly pretty when young, but they age
very quickly and with their youth every
vestige of good looks departs Their
compilations are very sallow, but their
faces are generally thickly painted and
powdered, a hard line around the neck
showing the point where art stops and
nature begins.
Beauty, from a japanese standpoint,
consists in long, oval face regular
features, almond-shaped eyes, sloping
slightly upwards, high narrow fore
head, and abundance of smooth, black
hair. Their movements are graceful, al
though the style Of their dress prevents
them walking with ease; their feet and
hands are delicately formed, and their
manners unquestionably charming.
They take little or no exercise and one
wonders sometimes how the little ladies
employ their time-there seems SO little
to be done in a Japanese house.-Corn-

STREET SPRINKLING COMING.
The city Will Probably Begin Early

Inc city VIII ITpDdDly btsS IAaiiy
Next Month.
The board of finance and the special
committee on street sprinkling last
night discussed together the sprinkling
problem which now confronts the city
government and there is a probability
that by the first week in July the city
will be watering the streets. The specr
ial committee has held two executive
sessions to consider the matter. AT last
nights meeting the committee discus
sed the bill to provide for street sprink-
ling here, which was passed by the leg
islature a few days ago, and is now be-
fore the governor waiting for his sigma
ture The general opinion expressed by
the members of the committee last
night was that the bill was mandatory
in its terms and that il it is signed UNI
der it's provisions the city will be COM
PEELED TO sprinkle the streets and furn-
ish the money to do it.
The matter had already been laid be-
fore the board of finance and that board
decided that it was unable to devise a
way to provide for sprinklng and ask
ed the special committee to submit a
plan. Accordingly the committee. last
HlSnL ADJOURNED 10 lHG DUdItl VI llLidiltt'
room and informed the board that in
the opinion Of the committee the bill
which is now ready, for the governor S
signature was mandatory and that af-
ter it was signed the city must be
ready to begin sprinlSling on July 2, the
date when the bill Is to go into effect.
In the meantime no source from which
to draw the money needed has
been found, but a member of
the special committee suggested
last night that it might be TAX
en- from the tax on the increased valu-
ton of real estate, which was not in
cluded in the estimated income for this
year.
The special committee will hold
special hearing this evening to hear the
opinions of citizens as to whether the
sprinkling should be done by the city
or let out at contract.
The special committee desires to settle
the question at once and to present an
order to the common council for pass
age instructing the director of public
works to take steps to have the sprink-
ling done either by contract or by the
city, according as recommended by the
committee after the public hearing. 1t
is the purpose of the committee to have
arrangements made so that the sprinlS-
ling may begin on July 2.

THE TRUE JAPANESE WOMAN.

The fair sex in Japan are the most
simple, and at the same time the most
complicated creatures imaginable. In
their general ideas and knowledge of the
world they are like children--delightfu
children, too-and, in their love of enjoy
ment and simple pleasures they retain
their youthful simplicity all their lives.
But, on the other hand, it is almost i'm
possible for foreigner really to under
stand their natures. Up to a certain
point a japanese lady is apparently
with that easy grace and courtesy which
is one of their peculiar charms. But one
seldom becomes more intimate. There
seems to be a wall of reserve beyond
which it is impossible to penetrate 1
have vainly attempted to fathom the
cause of this barrier, but without sue
cess; and | find it is the general expert
ence of those who like myself, have
lived among the Japanese, and know
them we'll.
Perhaps the natural antipathy which
has so long existed between the eastern
and western races may somewhat ac-
count for this want of intimacy and
also. | fear, we Europeans have often
wounded the delicate susceptibilties of
our eastern cousins by our want of tact
and our tendency to treat their manners
and customs with r9icule, If not con-
tempt.
am speaking more particularly of the
ladies of the upper classes. The little
"musmee,' generally considered by the
ordinary globe-trotter 10 be the recog-
nized type of a Japanese woman, is no
more so than is the 'grisette" the typi-
cal Frenchwoman or the English ballet
girl the typical Englishwoman.
Nowhere, perhaps, in the world does
one find a more ideal "lady" than among
the wives and daughters of fair Japon-
lea" A japanese lady reminds me Of a
delicate sea-anemone which, at the first
approach of rough hand. shrinks into
itself, avoiding contact with the practi-
cal hardness of everyday life. She is
almost morbidly sensitive, but her nat
ural pride and politeness forbid her in

Crops Suffering from Drought
Last evenings rain came most well
comedy to New Haven and vicinity and
was especially appreciated in New Ha-
ven where the dusty streets receive no
sprinkling, except that which comes
from nature. The storm was part of
the area which started in the north
west and caused the cyclones in Min
nesOta The area passed over the lake
region and last night was passing down
the St Lawrence valley. New Haven
was on the extreme south edge.
The rain yesterday afternoon spread
over a considerab BILE area covering near
ly the whole state, and being heavier
to the northward The rain in Hart
ford was much heavier than in this
city
Many complaints are heard from the
farmers in this section who fear dis
astrous results to their crops unless
more rain comes soon. That which fell
yesterday afternoon was only sufficient
to lay the dust and while appreciated
for that still was not sufficient to do
much good to crops. 1t is reported
that the hay crop has already been so
injured by the drought that it is past
help by rain. The farmers report that
there will be only half crop of hay in
thie section. Other crops are also suf-
fering, especially those of the truck
farmers and Strawberries have been
greatly damaged by the dry weather
