GALVESTON SCHOOLS OPENED.
The Galveston public schools opened
Monday. The enrolment was 1900.
he normal enrolment for the first
day is about 5000. The superintendent
thinks the enrolment will increase to
$500 by the end of the week. Some of
the children are obliged to go over a
mile to school and as the street car
service is still limited this has a ten
dency to restrict the attendance.

The first effort ever made to raise
foxes for their fur has passed the stage
of experiment and the men who con-
ceived the Idea are congratulating
themselves on their success. The ex-
pertinent was tried on a farm at Fox
croft, Me. While they raise various
varieties of foxes the o. which they
hope to breed to the greatest extent
is the blue fox of Alaska, whose fur is
so valuable. The animals occupy two
acres divided into three yards and
nine smaller Individual pens. These
yards are enclosed by three ton Of
wire fencing. These fences extend
from below the ground to from ten to
10 feet above, with an overhang at
right angles, on the inside at the top.
This prevents the foxes from making
their way over the fences. Dens were
built in the ground in regulation fash
ion, and the foxes live as comfort
ably as they would If forced to dig
their own homes.

Chicago, June 4.-Letters from Pres
byterian missionaries stationed in Chi.
ma have been received at the Woman's
Presbyterian Board of Missions in this
city. In one of the letters, dated April
IS, the writer refers t. the Boxer
movement and praises the magistrate
of PaO Ting Flu for the friendly action
he gave the missionaries. The letter
reads, in part:
The magistrate of the place said
that he had posted a proclamation full
of threats to the Boxers He sent ten
soldiers to watch the chapel the first
part of the night and ten others the last
part. He also sent a messenger out
here (the missionaries live outside the
city, neal M of the gates) to say that
soldiers patrOled the locality all night.
Today the Boxers put up a poster say
ing hat the god Of wal had come down
to eXterminate the foreign devils. The
drought throws many out of employ
ment. Nothing is being done in the
fields because the earth is so dry"
The other letter is dated April q and
tells of a fight between Roman Catho-
lies and Boxers" having taken place
not far from Pao Ting Flu. The mis-
sionary says, in part:

invited to come to this place by a rich

Shespmen Capture Two Highwaymen
and Kill One.

Sterling. June Sin a shooting af-
FRAY which occurred at a ranch near
Crook, thirty miles down the river in
this county, Sunday night, one man
was killed and two wounded.
While King and S. Gale, prominent
sheepmen residing near Crook, and
two hired men, Baker and Kearns, were
in their camp Sunday night, two high
waymen entered and at the point OF
revolvers held up and reSsved the
crowd of about $50, two watches and
lother articles. They bound and gagged
the men and then left the house and
pillaged the premises.
When the sheepmen managed to re-
lease themselves they set out on the
trail of the robbers. About 9 O'Clock
yesterday morning they met James
Lynch on his ranch. Lynch had a ri
1e with him and they persuaded him
to take up the trail with them. About
noon they came upon the two robbers
in the hills and ordered them to sur
render. This they promptly did and
were taken to the Lynch ranch. When
they were nearing the ranch house
with their prisoners one Of the captors
remarked that it was about time they
were relieving their prisoners of their
weapons. Nothing was said, and as
Lynch ~dismounted to open a gate one
of the prisoners fired two shots at him
without warning, the first bullet enter
ing Lynch's side just above the hip
and the second killed his horse. At
this moment the other members Of the
party opened fire on the highwaymen,
killing n and seriously injuring the
other. Word was Immediately sent to
this city Immediately after the shoot,

The state Besjukovschtschina, in
Russia, is probably the only place in
the world that is run entirely by
women. This state is made up of seven
villages, each presided over by a
mayoress, the whole under the super
i~ntendence of a lady named Saschka,
who acts as president. There are
women magistrates, women preachers,
women p0licemen-in fact, every ca
pacity in the state is filled by women.
The roads are made by women, and
women sell milk and deliver letters.
If you want to bring an action against
your neighbor in this state you go to a
woman lawyer; and If there is any
thing in your house to be stolen,
then a burglar of the weaker sex steals
it. No place of any Importance is
filled by a man.

for stating that the dowager empress

In China doors are often round, leaf
shaped or semicircular. In placing
them the builder usually avoids having
one opposite another lest evil spirits
find their way from the street into the
recesses of the building. The door

are usually of an elaborate kind. and
the octagonal form is one of the most

Religious superstition asserts itself in

In the memoirs Of Baron Stockmar
an amusing anecdote is related of one
Herr Won Radowitz, who was given to
making the most of easily picked up
information. A friend of the baron's
went to an evening party near Frank
fort, where he expected to meet Herr
Won Radowitz. On his way he saw
barn burning, stopped his carriage, as
sisted the people and waited till the,
flames We're nearly extinguished. When
he arrived at his friends house, he
found Herr Won Radowitz, who had
previously taken the party to the top Of
the building to see an aurora, dilating
on terrestrial magnetism, electricity,

"Have you seen the beautiful aurora
borealis?'' ->e.-~

Lost I'm Self Admiration.

It happened in an IL" car. He was
tall, handsome and just little too well
dressed and was reading pamphlet
on which stood out in letters large
enough to be plainly legible to the op-
posite row Of passengers the title,
Correct Dress" They all noticed him,
for he was really beautiful.
There was no doubt as to what he
was reading. The passengers followed
it almost line by line and knew just
what part of the essay he had reached.
1t began when his eyes left the book
and glanced obviously at his cloth top
ped patent feathers. He shook his
head slightly as he saw that the upper
was of trife too pronounced a pat
tern. Next he took in his trousers, and
a bland smile of satisfaction wreathed
his face. There was slight frown
when he compared his waistcoat with
the haberdashers manual, but his coat
and hat were evidently irreproachable.
The end of the inventory and Of the
spectators self control came when the
beautiful one began to admire In the
