Life of an Arab Woman.

From Pearsons Weekly.
Many an Arab lady never leaves her
house from the time she Is married until
she Is carried out to be buried. A woman
of the middle class is allowed more Lib
erty, and occasionally goes out for walks,
accompanied, as a rule, by a servant The
poor creature is enveoped In masses of
white drapery, which makes her look like
a walking bundle, and in front of her face
she arranges a large black scarf en-
broidered with blue, red and white flow
ers. It falls low in front, and even by
holding up the ends she cannot see more
than a foot or two of the road before
her. l otter wonder that she does not
get run over when she goes out alone
for l am sure she needs a dog to guide
her quite as much as any blind man. Ser
wear pieces of black crepon wound tight
ly round their faces. leaving just slit
for their eyes to peep through, and they
are qually muffled up in white draperies.
Seen from a distance, they might be men,
with masks or thick black boards, as in
Arab countries 1t is by no means easy to
tell a man from a woman at first sight.
The older and uglier a woman is the more
prudish she seems TO be about covering
up her face, which, after all, is rather
considerate on her part. Even the greater
number of negresSes wear the yashmak,
but the Bedouin women never do. In
deed, l am told that in the interior there
Is one Arab tribe whose men wear wells
and whose women go about with their
| faces uncovered. These are probably tho
new women" of Arabia.

THE WILD WEST SHOW.
Buffalo Bill and His Aggregation
will Be Here Monday.

The reason that the kindergarten Is
the best method Of training the young
mind IL because 1t entertains while in
structing and the reason why Buffalo
Bills Wild West is the most successful
and popular of entertainments Is for
exactly the same reasons. The scenes
representing the early settlement of the
western part of our country are enter
tanning and are object lessons OF great
value of giving life and motion to those
things we have read of in the histories
of our school days. The students OF
anthropology never saw congregation
of people so varied and diverse as Is
gathered from the four quarters OF the
globe in this one arena, and at the same
time the value of the study is en-
hanced by the exhibitions of the vari-
Gus modes of life in peace, in war and
in their pastimes as given by these
people.
All the features of the Wild West ana
Congress of Rough Riders that have
appealed so successfully to the public
in the past will be retained, and as
they have been improved upon greatly
since last seen here. they will in many
respects appear almost new. The show
will be seen here Monday.

CANINE REMORSE.
A Mastiff Kills Little Greyhound,
Disappears and Never Returns.

From the PunXsutawney Spirit.
A gentleman from Indiana county,
who is absolutely reliable, related a
dog story the other day which would
seem to indicate that a dog can suffer
keen remorse. "A few years ago." he
said, 81 owned a fine, big mastiff,
which / had reared from puppyhood,
and who was intelligent and faithful.
He was extremely good natured and
seemed to exercise the most consider
ate care in playing with children or
smaller dogs, not to hurt them.
when l had kept the mastiff for
several years l became the possessor
of a delicate little Italian greyhound.
The mastiff treated him as one Of the
family and never abused him, but the
little greyhound considered himself a
dog of superior breed and too aristo-
cratic to associate with the mastiff.
He would snap and snarl at the mas
tiff when he came near, and when
the dogs were fed the little greyhound
would attempt to drive the mastiff
away This continued for some time
until one day, after the greyhound had
eaten the quantum of food thrown to
it, it ran up to the mastiff, snapped
it on the leg and attempted to take its
food. The mastiff looked at it for a
second, and then, as if it had conclud-
ed that 1t was time to teach the impu-
dent little greyhound lesson, grab.

UNFRAMED WOMEN.
Some Thoughts Suggested by Stats"
les of the Professions.

The Art Exchange has this TO say
with regard to women in art work:
statistics are not to be trusted abso-
lutely but some recently published fig
ureS showing the invasion OIL the pro"
fessional field by women afford the
thinking ones among US food for re-
Election. 1t is stated by those who de-
vote their energies to gathering such
information that 110O0 women in the
United States follow art as a profess
sion. ln no other profession are so
many women employed, except in mu-
sic, whose followers, as voCalists and
instrumentalists, number 81, 900. Twen-
ty-eight hundred men are engaged in
literature ana 800 in journalism. Be-
sides these, there are 600 employed in
dramatic authorship. The actresses
number 1000. Contemplation of these
figures will afford some idea of the
keen competition for employment be-
tween men and women in our cities.
1t will also point 30 the necessity for
better equipment among women seek
ing employment in their chosen field.
1t is a recognized fact among those
who come much in contact with pro-
fessional workers that few of them are
adequately trained for the work they
would undertake. The superficiality OF
the study and the total unfitnesS of the
average woman for her task are
enough to startle one who comes IN
contact with her for the first time. Her
assurance. too, which usually accom-.
panies ignorance, is so amazing that
few persons have the temerity to un.
deceive her, so she goes on in her blind.
ness, doing herself and those whom
she would instruct more injury thar
good. 1t would be a safe estimate that
out of the 1l,oO0 women following art
as a profession, not more than 1,10t
are properly equipped and trained fol

THEY WILL CONFER TODAY
Viewers on the Opening of Wyo-
ming Avenue to Meet officials
of the Delaware and Hud-
son Company.

Today, w. W. Davis, George Okell
and Carl Mckinney, the viewers ap-
pointed by court to assess the damages
for opening Wyoming avenue, Will
have a conference with officials of the
Delaware and Hudson company to
finally adjust the terms on which the
company will remove its tracks from
the line of the proposed extension.
1t is understood the company Is dis
posed to vacate the street for the ac-
tual cost of securing a new right OF
way and the labor of moving it's tracks.
1t Is willing also to make due allow
ancc for the benefit that will accrue
from the Strengthening of it's line, the
increased facilities that will be af-
forded about its freight house and the
increased business that will come to
its road from the improvement of the
avenue.
This disposition on the part Of the
company is conditional upon the man
ner in which the viewers deal with
the other property holders whose prop
! critics have to be condemned.
AS q rule persons regard the entrance
| upon their property by a corporation,
| and especially municipality, as a
| sort of open door to fortune. This in
| stance is no exception. Exhorbitant
| prices are demanded and the chances
are that the viewers will have no easy
| time in effecting reasonable compro-
misses, if indeed they can compromise
at all in most of the cases.
Realizing this the railroad company
| declined to make terms until the view
ers had arrived at a conclusion as to
| the basis of settlement with the other
property holders. The viewers have
about completed their estimates and
will today deal with the company. On
the outcome of this conference depends
in a great measure the carrying out
of the improvement.
If the expenses can be kept below
$4,000 it is likely that councils will
give the project its approval If il
costs $50 900 as the appropriation asked
for would seem to contemplate. it is
safe to say the appropriation will be
wanting for some time at least.

CAUSES MANY WRECKS.
Quartz Sand of Lake Superior Makes
Compasses Treacherous.

From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
How ships compass could lead her
master astray has been one OF the
mysteries of Lake Superior for years,
but 1t is probably explained now by
one OF the vesselmen in the only way
that seems consistent One of his own
boats suffered a week ago at a time
when he knew his compasses were
right His ship was heading for Du-
luth, and for safety was two points
south of her course, which should have
taken her to the entry at Superior,
seven miles south from the harbor
entrance at -Iuluth. Without warning
the vessel grated on beach and
stopped. An investigation showed her
to be on a sanubank at the mouth or
the Knife river twenty miles east from
Duluth. She was heading directly up
the river, almos: due north, but the
compass still held two points south OF
the course for Duluth The boat had,
by the charts, turned almost right
angle. Within l25 feet OF either side
rock reefs ran out into the lake, on
which she would have cut herself to
pieces. TO the southerly side, where a
tritling less deviation would have TAX
en- the vessel, lay an island of rock
that would have driven her bow back
to her engines and hunChed her up
into a ball. AS it was, tug pulled
her off, and a survey showed not a
dollar Of damage. Indeed, nothing is
publicly known of the fortunate acci-
dent till this writing. Many such a
casualty has occurred from time ia
time, ana the river on which this boat
brought up has been the scene of two
or three groundings every season for
years. Some of them have resulted
luckily, others have been total losses
The only explanation for these ground
ings ana deviations Is that a great bed
of magnetic iron sand lies in the bed
of the stream, covered by the wash
ings Of quartz sand from the rocks OF
the lake.
The same explanation probably ac-
counts for the late disasters at other
points on tne north shore. Indeed, in
n gathering of vessel captains in an
agents office in Duluth this week they
discussed the remarkable alterations
OF compasses this rail-, which every
man had noticed far more than be-
fore in any year. During the week
one of the captains of one of the great
fleets, man noted as the most careful
and the best man in the line, who has
not lost his company a cent in repair
for years, found himself on the north
shore and three points off his course
though the compass was identical with
its indication of every trip Of the sea-
son. He got off without much loss
but the fact was none the less re-
markable How did he gett here, and
what made ting deviation?
