Illinois Woman Potent Power in the
Los Angeles Traction Company.

Illinois Woman n Potent Power In the
Los Angeles Traction Company.
From the Sacramento Union.
Miss Fanny Hook of Los Angeles, CAL,
takes a leading part in the management Of
that city's traction system. Not only does
she own large block of the stock of the
company, but she is power IN the councils
of the board Of directors. and her wishes
always receive respectful attention and her
plans are generally adopted.
1t is no exaggeration Of the facts to rep
resent Miss Hook as having her hand on the
wires that move the men and women and
machines in the various departments of the
traction system. She is force, a power
full force. and potent force in the third
largest railroad system of the west, sys
tenn that has millions invested and millions
more to invest. Yet it is doubtful if a hun
dred persons in Los Angeles, where the
traction lines have been running for many
years know of Miss Fanny Hooks share in
the wonderful development of the traction
company and its great prosperity.
The politicians at the city hall undertook
not long ago to levy tribute upon the trac-
tion company, but Miss Hook refused to
disgorge g. cent. They threatened a revoca-
ton of the franchise Of the company, and
Miss Hook told them to go ahead. At the
same time she took good care to accommo-
date the patrons Of the road and to extend
It's lines to parts of the town in need of
rapid transit AS a result public feeling
was aroused when the council undertook
to annul the franchise and the aldermen
took back water.
Miss Hook is an Illino!san having been
born in Jacksonville some years ago-it
doesn't matter how many. 1t is not known
how much she is worth, but she is classed
among the richest residents of Los Angeles
She has three Observation-Disclosures Thomas
and William. The last is associated with
her in the management of the traction
properties. He operated the street car
lnes or jacksonville, owned an interest in
the southeastern railway that ran out of
Jacksonville, had an interest in the Pekin
Peoria and Jacksonville railway. His wife
is very wealthy. Her money, it is said is
invested largely in the traction companys
lines.
There are about thirty Jacksonville pao-
pie employed by Miss Hook and her brother

Death From ApOpIexy.
From the New York Herald.


As death from apoplexy is always quite
sudden, the shock of the news is CORE
spcndingly impressive. With Rear Admiral
Sicard L. 5. N.-whose death occurred yes-
terday-there was no exception to the rule
The end came quickly and painlessly This
can be easily explained when the nature
of the disease is properly understood, there
being an effusiOn of blood into the SUBJ
stance of the brain, the result of run
tured blood vessel
The actual rapidity Of death is generally
determined by the portion of the brain in
Volved, the degree Of the bleeding and of
course the ultimate size of the clot Hem
orrhages occurring in the deeper parts are
more apt to be Immediately fatal by in
Ncivfng the nerve centers OF the heart and
lungs than those enusions which occur on
the surface of the organ.
The predetermining cause Is brittleness Of
the blood vessels, due TO the degenera tive
processes of old age. while the particular
provoking influence is associated with some
temporary congestion usually produced by
mental excitement.
1t Is a strange fact that very frequently
before the attack the victim expresses him
self as feeling extraordinarily we'll. This
corditiOn is partly explained by the sup
position that peculiar mental exhilaration
precedes the fatal fulness Of the circulation

ChristianiZed. 1t understands thoroughly
that in many ways missionary efforts are
beneficial to the government as well as the
people. The religion taught would not dif-
fer much from the Professionalism Of Eng
land, and the fundamental principles or
freedom are the same in the two countries
There are many writers who advocate the
Offering up of the American missionary as
a sacrifice on the altar of peace, while some
advise that he should be restricted In his
operations to the treaty ports. Both or
these suggestions are impracticable. 1t
may be asserted with absolute certainty
that the Catholic missionary will remain In
China. He would stay there If the land
were sown with dragons teeth. destined to
spring up armed men. His history In all
lands proves this to be true. He lived
among our Indians, and, with the sweat
wrung from his brow, while he was burn
Ing at the stake, he sometimes baptized his
murderers. No tortures will keep him out
of China. and where he goes his Protestant
brother will go. There is not much use of
trying by argument to deter men from do
Ing what conscience and duty command
them to do. Especially they will not be
deferred by danger. while men of rival
religion eagerly confront it.
Racial AntagOnfsm the Cause.
I speak only for myself, after some ex-
perience in China, when l say that it Is
not In the least degree probable that mis-
sionary work laid at the foundation of the
uprisal of the Boxers The missionary
suffered because he was a foreigner, and
the convert suffered because he was a
friend Of the foreigner. 1t was a racial,
and not religious, antagonism which
originated the disturbances The real
causes were envy, jealousy, resentment for
the loss of trade in the past, and the over
whelming fear that the new inventions and
machines that the foreigners were introduce
ing would pauperize the people. Added to
these sentiments was the dread of foreign
domination over the whole of China, which
was caused by acts Of spoliation. What
ever the causes Of the riots may have been,
1t is plain that discomfort was deep-seated,
and that antagonism to foreigners Is al
most universal OF course, plain, simple
remedy for existing evils would be to give
back to China the portions of her territory
which. by one method or another, have
been taken from her. Such an act would
convince her at once that the western
world was in earnest in the desire to win
her good will; but no man of affairs dreams
for a moment that such recession will ever
be made.
Be merciful, of course. but first be just
In the settlement Of the account against
China it is to be hoped that the small still
voice of the United States will have its
weight as well on the side of lawful retri-
button as on that of mercy.

From the Detroit Free Press
Look here, what are you doing there?"
The man who had asked the question
seemed excited, but the man to whom it
was addressed was not disturbed in the
least. He was dumping a load of dirt in a
vacant lot. This was perfectly apparent to
the questioner, too So that the question
was clearly unnecessary as a means of OBJ
tanning information. This idea must have
impressed itself upon the man at work, for
he went on with his task. The other man
and asked the question again in a louder
tone than before. Then the workman re-
piled:
Il am unloading some dirt, sir"
But don't you see that sign?" demanded
the angry man, pointing to a notice on a
pos. not ten feet away.
"Yes, sir
What does it say?'
'It says, Place no dirt here by order of
John Smith, read the man.
We'll, SIR, the angry man went on, II
am John Smith, the owner Of that lot"
Glad to know you SIR
None of your impudence, sir, or I will
have you arrested. Now, 1 wish to know
why you dump dirt on my lot when there is
a notice distinctly forbidding it,
Il beg your pardon, Mr.. Smith, but that
notice does not forbid me from dumping dirt

1T doesn't. Ell? What does 1t say, then?
I'd like to know, SIR

AT this the man mounted his cart and
drove away, leaving Mr.. Smith very
thoughtful.

Conditions That Warn People to Be
gin the Wearing of Glasses.
From the Youths Companion.

The three defects of eyesight which are
most commonly encountered in otherwise
healthy persons and which can be more or
less perfectly overcome by means of glasses
are near-siShtednesS, far-Sightedness and
astigmatism. These are all important, for
besides the discomfort and annoyance of
imperfect sight, the involuntary efforts
which the sufferer makes to see better
strain the eyes and not only inJure them,
but also give rise, through reflex action, to
headaches and various nervous disturb
ances.
Near-sghtedneSs, short-sightedness, or
myOpId- as 1t Is variousIy Gained, is Il cundi-
tiOn OF the eyebaIl-usually lengtnening-
III consequence OF winch the rays of light
are brought 10 focus III front Of the re-
tina ana 80 the object is blurred.
This condition may exist from birth, but
Is usually The result OF too much and too
early use of the eyes, the case OF stu
dents, enSraverS, women VINO do Iine sew
ing and 50 forth Thus We may say that
putting children at work at some of the
kinder garJen exercises, such as perforating
and drawing. Is in u double sense short
sighted procedure
Many near-slghted people refuse TO wear
glasses, preferrInS 10 deprive themselves oi
slght for everything beyond the nose raLh-
er than inJure their personal appearance, as
they think. This is another snort-slghted
pOilcy, Tor, besides losing much oI the joy
beauuful things about and above US, such
persons are very liable to suffer from IN
hammatiOn of the eyes produced by con-
slant strain.
A less common defect is long or far-sight-
edness or hypermetropia. This is the op-
poslte OF myopia, the eyebaIl being fiatten-
ed or shortened and the rays of hight con-
sequenuy not coming to a focus by the
time tnty reach the retina.
In this case the eye often corrects the de-
rect more OF less successfully by making
the crystalline lens more convex but il
does this at the expense of the sufferer $
nerve force, and SO often find tired and
congested eyes, headaches, indigestion and
even serious nervous affections. The effort
10 correct the vision is entirely involuntary
and can be overcome only by the fitting of
suitable convex glasses.
Inc thlrd and most common defect is as
uSmdtism. In this condition there is some
ITeg u4drlty OF the surface of the eve or
the lens, by means of which the image as
II reaches the r@tina IS distorted I-ntrear-
ed asugmatism Is a frequent cause of head
acne ana other nervous disturbances The
only relief is the wearing of glasses at least
while reading, writing or whenever near
objects are looked at.
