In these days when women are do
ing all sorts Of things it is well to re-
mind them that there are some things
they can't do. For instance. The ad-
dustment Of the female clavicle makes
IT physically impossible for woman
to throw a missile with either accuracy
or grace. Nature, doubtless, never In
tended that she should throw things at
the other sex. Another thing. Few
iwomen-bless 'em-know how to get off
q street'car In the orthodox fashion. A
street car conductor will give his bell
rope couple of jerks to tell the mo-
torman to go ahead as soon as a man
puts his foot on the lower step-as to a
woman, never. She is all too likely to
get Off backwards or straight in front
or any old way. Even women have
their limitations.

/, The rOmanceS of royalty are as tragic
as those with which Anthony Hope has
filed the imaginary realm of Rurita-
mia. Princess Stephanie, a daughter
Of the King Of the Belgians, in the
bloom Of early youth became the wife
of Archduke Rudolf, the Grown Prince
of Austria Hungary, She seemed des-
tined to be an empress, but her life in
Vienna has been overshadowed with
unhappiness. The tragic death of the
Crown Prince left her a widow with a.
young daughter to be educated in the
stateliest but most gloomy court in Eu-;
rope. The Princess at 35 has entered
upon her second romance. Her mar
riage to Count Elemer Lonyay involved
the sacrifice Of her royal rank and COM
plete separation from her daughter,
who has reached the age Of 16. The
King of the Belgians and the Emperor
of Austria each attempted to dissuade
the Princess from this second marriage,
but she had fallen in love with the
Hungarian Count, and chose to take.
her leave of a court where she has
never been happy, and to leave behind
her daughter, to whom she is devotedly
attached. At the marriage, which took.
place in March, neither her royal father:
nor her imperial father-in-law was.
present Etiquette forbade them to as,
sist. at the ceremony. But the Coun-
tess has not forfeited their love or their
esteem. The Count is Of noble, but not
of royal, birth. He has estates in Hun
gary, and is diplomatist who has been
connected with the Austrian embassies
at several European courts. Royal eti-
uuette is rigid and without sentiment.
The Crown Princess, who had expect
ed to be an Empress, divested herself
of royal rank and privilege when she
became "a Countess. She can never
again meet on terms Of equality her
own daughter, who is great figure at
the Austrian court, and Is to marry
Kings son. Yet she has exchanged a
life which had become perpetual
tragedy for one that promises happi-
ness, and every one who knows her
wishes her happiness In the fullest
measure.

: One Of the Iowa Legislature sins of
omission was its failure to pass the
bill to prohibit seining and other SINH
lar methods Of taking fish in the border
rivers. The bill was defeated because
the seine fishermen made a vigorous
hSht against It The argument that
had weight with the Legislature was
that the bill aimed to destroy the inter-
ests Of the men who fish for nyeli-
hood and was in the interests of the
sportsmen who caught only few fish.
This strange argument actually car
rftd the day. Several Of the seiners
employ from fifteen to twenty men each
to drag the rivers. It is only matter
OF time when the supply will be ex-
hausted, just as the game supply. was
ruined by the lack of adequate game
laws. Sportsmen believe that the sup
ply Of fish will be exhausted within
fve years at the present rate, and 1t is
feared that the rivers will have to be
restocked when the next Legislature
meets. Although the Legislature re-
fused to forbid seining it increased the
appropriation for the game and fish
warden from $1,000 to $4,000 and gave
him additional powers to enforce the
law. The warden has complained in
the past that he was unable to employ
sufficient help to enforce the law. The
additional appropriation should be ade-
quate and 1t Is hoped that he will pre-
vent the reckless slaughter out Of sea-

doubtful whether he is to be congratuI
lated upon his rehabilitation. Though
he is no longer drug on the market,
he has no brighter future before him
than at any other time since the trolley
car and the automobile began to crowd
him off the earth. For the crowding-
off process continues at a rate that
might well alarm the whole equine
race. Competent authorities estimate
that the Boer war Is killing at least s.
600 horses per month, which will ac-
count for $4,000 or 10000 animals since
the beginning of the war, not counting
those used for table purposes in Lady
smith, Kimberley, and Mafeking. There
is every probability that the wastage of
horses will be still greater when the
British penetrate farther into the Boer
country. The Beers take special pains
to kill the enemy's horses, because the
death Of horse Is almost as great a
military loss as the death Of man.
The climate also causes the wholesale
sickness and death Of the unacclimated
animals. To supply this enormous
wastage the British are securing the
horse markets of the world. The war
