A STILL, SMALL VOICE.
Gallery Gods DisillusioniZe the
Fancy Of Stage Struck

Being IL years old, Mildred Hyland
we'll born and carefully reared,
cherished the idea that she needed on
ly opportunity to dazzle the world
with the rising of another Bernharot
in her own pretty person. Mildred
was stage-struck. Her parents were
wise and firm. They knew that the
hind side of scenery and the I'M
trammeled comments of the gallery
were the best cures for incipient stage
fever. and they pitilessly allowed the
daughter to accept a position with a
CORRESPONDING theatrical company. o.
the program Mildred was labeled SOU
brette: she yearned to play Camille.
At the end of six weeks of this Mildred
justified her fathers wisdom by return
ing to the parental roof on ticket
procured by leaving her watch with
the .llage ''jeweler" in town Of 600
inha bitants in western New York. Her
trunk also remained in seclusion, hav-
ing been left with the village landlord
as souvenir of the unprOh table ap-

Furnishing Lynchers In Texas.

Statistics of crime show a smaller
number of lynchings last year than for

show also that two Texas lynchers are

q lyncher in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Iowa, Kansas or Pennsylvania has been
prosecuted, and 10 Oh 0 the state auJho-

Major LleWellyn And Capt. Good
rich Made a Run To Las

Major w. b. 81. Llewellyn was in
the city Saturday from Las Cruces &C
companied by his wife and son.
When Major Llewellyn was here early
last week he returned home ON spe-
cial engine hired from the Santa Fe.
His trip Attracted considerable atten-
ton and many conjectures were in
dull ed in concerning lis object.
he came in Tuesday evening on the
White Oaks from Tularosa where he
had spent several days accompanied
by David M. Goodrich, prominent
and wealthy citizen of Akron, O..
formerly a lieutenant and acting cap
tain in the Rough Riders. They In
tended going out the same evening on
the Santa Fe for Las Cruces but miss
ed their connection and had to lay
over in Ell Paso. Ats O'Clock they
hired a special engine and without
any coaches made run to Las Cruces,
a distance of bout forty-four miles, in
forty-fve minutes. Capt. Goodrich re-
manned in Las Cruce- only until 10
O'Clock thu t night when be left on tn
passenger train for the east.
When asked regarding the object OF
this hasty trip Major Llewellyn said:
"My friend, Capt. Good rich, had some
business to transact that evening in
Lss Cruces and had to leave the same
night for home. AS we missed our
connection Tuesday night, this was the
only thing we could do"
The business that caused this haste
was some affairs in the United States
land Office a. Las Cruces. Il Is be-
lieved that the party received word
that some one was driving across coun-
try from Otero county to beat them
and they found it necessary to get
there first at all hazards.

WOMAN'S
WORLD.

Last Sunday in the Cathedral at Bal
timore Cardinal Gibbons spoke Of the po-
sition of woman in the home and of the
so-caled society woman, he said
They are never at rest unless they
are in pursuit Of amusement They are
never at ease unless enjoying morbid eX-
element and artificial gayety. They are
never at home unless they are abroad.
All OF the solemn duties which are theirs
by virtue of their positions in home rest
lightly on their shoulders. They have no
taste for domestic usefulness, and no de-
sire to be the companion and helpmeet
of man. in the wrecking of many life
such women have had large part. Theirs
is the responsibility for many ruined

so now 1 hear they really are going,
and l am not at all surprised!'
Mrs. Louise de Lassomm of San Fran
cisco returned from tour of South At
RIGA a short while ago, and relates some
interesting impressions of the Beers.
THE Beers impressed me as being a
very uncouth sort of people" she says,
although those that we met We're pleas
ant enough. 1t is easy to see that they
are required TO pay little attention to the
courtesies of life while young, so that
their manners are devoid of polish, and
they frequently have surly air, which
does not by any means create faVora-
BILE impression upon strangers. But OF
their fighting qualities there can be no
question and England need not expect to
subdue them until their last shot has been
fired and their last ounce of strength Is
exhausted. There is no more determined
and stubborn race of people on earth than
the Beers.
1.-THE children, both boys and girls, are
taught the use of firearms as soon as they
are old enough to hold a gun. They prac-
ice constantly.
From one generation TO another the
Beers have been preparing for war until
to light is now their natural instinct.
The women are as courageous and COM
balive as the men. A Boer woman is new
er too old to shoot straight. You should
see them as [ have seen them coming -
the station to say good-by to husbands,
fathers brothers and sweethearts on their
way to the front. Such stoicism is as
tonishing.
Not tear does a Boer woman shed
when she sends son away from her to
fight for his country. Not tear does she
shed when he falls in battle. Fighting to
them is a business, a duty-anything but
a matter for sentiment.
my opinion is that when there are no
more Boer men left on the field, the Boer
women will take their places and give des-
perate battle to the English foe, whom
they hate with all their hearts. These At
rikander women are better soldiers than
most men.
Life in the Transvaal for Boer women
is very pleasant. In johannesburg l saw
more bicycles than in any other city, and
] have visited all the large cities of the
world.

Why do women hesitate to tell their age?
By common consent, 1t is regarded as very
rude and boorsh to ask a woman cate
gorical question regarding the number of
her birthdays. Yet there should be 10
diffidence on the point, and reticence on
the subject is hard 10 explain. Except
for some season connected with business
which may find in accommodating years q
handicap, man is usally very open about
his age and as ready to proclaim it as his
wife and his sister are to conceal theirs.

ing in the matter had its origin in the
