TROUSERS FOR GERMAN GIRLS
The Kaiser Did Not Object, but the
DurgOmnster of Flschhnuscr
Was Shocked.

A contribution towards the question
Of women's emancipation comes to the
Berlin Lokalanzeiger from Fischhaus-
err, small village in East Prussia, says
the Chicago Tribune.
A 10-year-old girl there had been left
in sore straits through the death of her
= father, who had been intrusted with
the administration of an estate belong
ing to the community. But she did not
despair.
Though only frail creature she sud-
denly developed an abundance Of en-
ergy and resolved to earn her means Of
living by following the same occupa-
ton as her father. AS step towards
the purpose she addressed letter to
the German emperor, asking to be al
lowed to wear mems clothes, which
would enable her to overcome all diff
culties.
The emperor's answer was encourag-
ing enough: "She would be granted
the privilege of DOMINIC male attire
conditionally upon the assent of the
burgomaster of the village"
The girls hopes were high when she
went to see the village potentate to in
form him Of the emperor's reply. But
they were doomed to failure, for, alas!
the burgomaster did not see his way to
grant her urgent request
HE could not give his consent" he
explained, "to such shocking thing,
which would be most dangerous to the
morals of the community over which
he had the honor to preside"

FUNNY FIGHTERS.
FilipinOs Initiate the American War
Cry and Then Beat a Hasty
Retreat.

A private letter from bugler IN Cen.
MacArthur's command in the Philip7
pines to his mother in Chicago relates
laughable incident about the Filipino
method of warfare. The story Of Col
Funston's several advances, and his
wonderful command over men, seems
as well known there as in this country,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
When, shortly after the fall Of Calum-
pit, Gen. Macarthur sent detachment
against some insurgents who had
thrown up breastworks on shrub
covered hillock, the Americans crept
forward just before dawn, and while
heavy rain was falling. With the first
CLEAN of daylight they rose to their
feet and ran forward silently until a
hurried. nervous discharge of musketry
told them they were discovered. Then
they yelled, and fred, and redoubled
their pace.
Suddenly they heard the Filipino
commander cry out, in fairly good Eng
lish:
Come on, boys-give 1t to 'em!" At
the same time abandoning the position,
and retreating at dead run.
The bugler declares the slogan" was
as effective in a Filipino camp as in an
American-only in quite contrary
manner; "for they no sooner heard
those words-which our officers most
always employ-than the last beggar
Of them hoped out of the intrench-
mcnt, and skurricd away"
"This," concludes the soldier, "is in
line with the general Asiatic habit Of
doing everything backward

Himself.

Leonidas Darlington, teller
OF the Citizens National 3 tank,
at Middletown committed sui.
eide by shooting himself in the

and notified her husband, who
found the teller lying dead on

slowly oozing out of the wound
in his head. He was highly
respected in the community.
Ills accounts are thought to be
all right. He was about SIS
years of age and leaves a wife
and one child to mourn his
