When a Woman Wills.

People who go about and into society
tell me that when a woman ardentfy
desires to make herself one of the ia
yored few Of the smart set, there is
really nothing she will stop at, and
some of these same persons have been
telling me this story in illustration of
what they say. In high officialdom,
says a writer in the Washington Post,
is little lady, dainty as spring GRO
Gus, who was member Of the inner
circle long before she became a part
of officialdom. On one Of her last re-
ception days she was chatting with two
cabinet women, when the servant an
nounced the arrival Of a woman who
is struggling to get into things as new
er q social climber struggled before.
The hostess knew her by sight merely,
and had never so much as had a bow
ing acquaintance with her, but official
people are used to seeing strangers at
their receptions, and the lady of the
house bowed with her usual gracious
ness. The climbers quick eye took in
the situation. She saw the two cabi-
net women, and she knew they saw
her. She rose to the occasion in mas
terly fashion.
my dear Mrs. Blank" she said gush-
ingly, clasping the hostess hand warm
ly, II was so sorry not to have been at
home when you called on Friday. It
was so sweet of you to come so soon,
and 1 do hope you'll come in very often,
informally, that way
And before the hostess had recovered
from her surprise the climber had pass
ed on, well content, for she had appear
ed in the presence of two cabinet WON
en- as the intimate friend of lady who
had never even set foot on her DOOR

inducements are advantageous to the
officers career. Jews are excluded, as:
not to be trusted with military secrets
Of a marketable nature, and thus there
is an exclusiveness about the military
regime that carries out its pretensions.
The advantage of the two years train
ing in the German army which all
the youth Of the fatherland must un-
dergo are obvious much more so than
two years service in the United States
army in time Of peace. This arises from
the fact Of the general recognition Of
the Importance of this military train
ing of the men of the nation, and hence
as much knowledge and skill in the
manual of arms is impaired as posi-
BILE, along with useful information as
to how to preserve health and vigor
and the incubation of habits of order,
punctuality, cleanliness, etc.

EULOGY BY WOLCOTT.
SENATOR HAS PRAISE FOR HIS
PaRTYs WORK.
Temporary Chairman of the Republi-
can National Convention Tells of the
Measures Passed and Those that Are
Contemplated.

Senator e. o. Wolcott of Colorado,
temporary chairman of the Republican
national convention, in his address be-
fore that body, spoke as follows:
Since the first party convention in these
United States, there was never one gathered
together under such hopeful and suspicious
circumstances as those which surround us
to-day United, proud Of the achievements
Of the last four years, our country prosper
Gus and happy, with nothing to regret and
naught to make us ashamed, with record
spotless and clean, the Republican party
stands facing the dawn, confident that the
ticket 1t shall present will command public
approval, and that in the declaration of its
principles and it's purposes it will voice the
aspirations and hopes of the vast majority OF
American freemen.
We need mo omen but our country's
cause yet there is significance In the fact
that the convention is assembled in this his
toric and beautiful city where we first as
sumed territorial responsibilities when our
fathers, century and quarter ago, pro-
mulgated the immortal declaration OF tnde-
pendence.
The first and pleasant duty Of this great
convention, as well as its instructive I'M
pulse, is to send message of affectionate
greeting to our leader and our country
President, William Mckinley. In all that
pertains to our welfare in times of peace his
genius has directed us. He has shown an
unerring mastery of the economic problems
which confront us, and has guided US out
Of the slough of financial disaster, Impaired
credit and commercial stagnation up to the
high and safe ground Of national prosperity
and financial stability. Through the dell
cate and trying events of the late war he
stood Arm, courageous and conservative, and
under his leadership we have emerged tri-
umphant, our national honor untarnished,
our credit unassailed, and the equal devotion
of every section of our common country to
the welfare Of the republic cemented for
ever. Never in the memory of this genera
ho
government truer patriot, wiser or more
courageous leader or a better example OF
the highest type Of American manhood. The
victories of peace and the victories of war

A Chivalric Bird.

Even the birds recognize woman's
rights-at least SO an Audubonite lee
turer declared the other day in de-
scribing the habits of the golden
crowned thrush, more Familiarity
known as the oven-bird. The word
owen merely refers to the shape Of
the philosophers nest, which usually is
built ON the ground with a dome-like
roof Even the family name suggests
fire, being Furnariidae.
But the way in which the nest is built
explains the birds answer to eternal
feminine demands. A partition di-
vides the owen into two compart-
ments. The inside one is for the lady
bird and has luxurious feather bed.
The outer room is the gentleman birds
boudoir, and its only furniture Is q
rough clay couch.
This head OF the family has a golden
crown-which he deserves. for he's q
gentleman and a scholars regular
bird of bird, to fall into the slang Of
the day who might teach something
to humanity masculine humanity,
that is.-BaltinOrs News

frightened by a Poodle.

Perhaps Burns famous line might be
made to read, "a dogs dog for a.
that But of all dogs, thoroughbred
or mongrel, shaggy poodle would
seem to be about the poorest kind Of
dog for defense Yet missionary,
whose experience has been among the
savages and cannibals Of Africa, says
that his little poodle, Sally, was one of
his best protectors.
One of her exploits consisted in put
ting to flight band of hostile natives.
The missionary was travelling some dis
lance in advance of his caravan, ac-
companied only by his boy servant and
Sally When he came to the top of a
hill large body of Burungi warriors
in full war-paint were suddenly seen
racing toward them.
Calling Sally to him, the missionary
whispered in her ear something about
"going for them" Then was witnessed
the scene of a small, shaggy dog with
very big bark, tail in the air, charging
at a company of armed men.
ut was a great sight" says the trav-
eler, worth going to Africa for to
see those war-like men running for
their lives, with little Sally at their
heels, barking as if she knew, brave lit
tie dog. that she was making a great
big bluff, and it all depended ON the
noise she could make
