He Obeyed the Judge.


Over a score of years ago Judge Fitz-
gerald was appointed to the bench of
the district that includes Pima and
COchise counties, in Arizona. He found
on coming to Tucson that fOrmality
was almost unknown in the courtroom.
If the days were warm, the attorneys
and attendants dispensed with coats.
This to him appeared particularly dis
respectful. He announced that smOk-
ing in the courtroom would not be toll
Grated and that coats must be worn
under pain of the courts displeasure.
The grand jury was called. Among
the jurors summoned was a brawuy
miner, who appeared in his usual cos
tune, a dark blue shirt and overalls.
"What do you mean," Numbered the
magistrate, "by appearing in this court
room in your shirt sleeves? Where is
your coat?"

the juror.
"Then 60 and get it! No, not word,
STRIP glaring down upon the man rs
he attempted to speak. go home and
get your coat, sir, or I'll commit you
for contempt"
The miner went silently out. He
didn't return that day nor the next,
and the judge, after issuing a bench
warrant for him, swore in another
juror. About two weeks thereafter the
original miner, dressed as the court de-
manded, again stepped within Judge
Fitzgerald's range of vision. To the
irate magistrate he rendered the ex-
PLANTATION that his home and coat were
both in Harshaw mountains, near the
Mexican border, over 100 miles away
and that he had but obeyed the orders
of his honor in going home after his
cOat-Arizona Graphic.

If shoes go on forever, why should
not our toes grow together? We have
no use for them. We can't manage
them. About one man in 1000 can
pull on his interossei muscles and
spread out his toes. In the remaining
900 these muscles are as dead as fiber.
They haven't been used since the in

If we wore mittens all the time, the
individual control of our fingers would
be lost. We eat so much soft food
that we have scarcely any need Of

nose, as mastication is performed by

''In the early days of CRur d'Alene,"
said an old miner, Il was working
with my partners on claim when we
were suddenly startled by pistol shots
and, looking up, discovered a man ~
ing PROSTATE on an adjoining claim,
while his assailant was trying to es-
cape by Logging it to the best of his
ability. Without stopping to pick up
the injured man we gave hot chase to
the one trying to escape, whom we
finally overhauled, captured and hailed
before a justice of the peace at Mis-
sion, Ida, the nearby town.
''There, as l remember it, it develop
ed that it was an attempt at claim
jumping and that the man who had
done the shooting was the would be
jumper The evidence was all against
him, and word came that the man who
had been shot lay all but within the
portals of death, the physician giving
it as his opinion that he could last only
a few hours longer, and thereupon the
famed justice of the peace rendered his
decision.

A Loud whistle.

A clergyman in Scotland desired his
hearers never to call one another
.liars," but when any one said the
thing that was not they ought to
whistle.
One Sunday he preached sermon
on the parable of the loaves and fishes,
and being at loss to explain it said
the loaves were not like those nova
days-they were as big as some of the
hills of Scotland.
He had scarcely pronounced these
words when he heard loud whistle.

George, DEAR" she said night or

George, my heart would break If l

"But it will not be So" said George
passionately. I'VE love each other too
tenderly, too fondly for that. Our love
is not of the ordinary kind, my darling,
and our lives will not be so. All, no,
no. my angel; that can never be!'
And the other day she said: Il say,

All right, then. and don't you forget
that feeding bottle for the baby or I'll
send you back after it, and mind that

of some aid that would enable her
to advance intellectually some,
thing to feed the mind while she
busted herself with the routine
duties l!i Of life in the household.
Here the club comes in and stimu-
lates her to feel that her mind is
still growing, despite the cares that
fall upon her.
Miss Sanford had an emphatic
rebuke for those who belittle the
club woman as one who neglects
her household duties. Take the
clubawomen of the state of North
Dakota, . for example, she stated,
. and !! they will be found twice as
good housewives, twice as good
mothers, and away in the lead gen
orally Of the women Of the state
who do not belong to the clubs.
This was one Of Miss Sanford's
criterions, supported with words
of extreme earnestness. The ideals
she said, which women in club life
set up for themselves make their
routine household duties seem
easier and encourage them to nobler
living.
The study Of history and litera-
ture also enables the lives of club
women by making those lives
more beautiful, filling them with
higher aspirations and frmer de-
termir alton to do noble things.
Another thing the clubs do is
to inspire a better feeling. The
time was, in the early days of the
club, when perhaps a feeling of
jealousy was experienced by the
leaders, but women had broadened
since then and the spirit of
emulation and encouragement for
each other had supplanted the
feeling of jealousy.
Still another thing the women's
clubs had done was to create an
interest in the study Of art and
had advanced that study in the
schools. Furthermore they had
promoted the cause Of town and
city improvement and were incul-
eating in the minds of the young
the lesson that home adornment is
a virtue to be practiced.
Miss Wis s.: Sanford lt said that some
times she had seen q spirit mani.
tested by women that she could
not approve, When. for instance,
a women and a man we're candi-
dates q for g the same position, say
school Office, anlthough the man
was by far the better fitted for the
place, yet other women would say
she's a women and we must help
her. The speaker did not think
this was right. She wanted won.
en- to take their places side by side
with the. men and.to be judged as
men are judged.
Touching women suffrage, Miss
Sanford said she had never been a
persistent advocate of the cause
believing that the tendency was in
the direction of giving women hel
share in the government of the
country and that in time she
would herself goalong with the men
at the polls. She did not chide
those who were anxious to hasten
the day, but if they must agitate
for the right Of the ballot, she ad-
vised that they doso patiently.
In closing Miss Sanford observed
that the ways are manifold in
which women's clubs may benefit
the homes and lives Of the people.
They should devote more attention,
however, to extending everywhere
the influence of music and the en-
coulraagement a Of lecture {, courses for
the people. The latter she regard
ed as being almost as necessary as
are the primary and intermediate in
the high school. ''@' : :

WOMENS DAY.

q S1duO duuIcSS.
woMENs DAY. :
The meeting held in the auditor
ium yesterday afternoon under the
auspices of the ladies' was fairly
well attended and enthusiastic.
Mrs. A. M. Powell presided and
Mrs. Thos. Thorson, on behalf of
the Devils Lake XIX Century
club, delivered the address of well
come. She spoke briefly of tie ey o.
luton of the Woman's Club, first
a mere social organization, but
which has it's elimination in the
grand confederation of clubs which
but-recently held it's convention in
Milwaukee. Its sphere has been
broadened until it now includes
philanthrophy, housekeeping, and
many other objects, and the speak
er hoped that it would embrace in
time. if not politics, at least politi-
cal education. Mrs. Thorson warm
ly welcomed the visiting ladies' to
the pleasures and enjoyment mnee Of
the hour at the Chautauqua.
At the conclusion ofthe remarks
by Mrs: Thoarseon, q e Miss Ruth An,
derson rendered q delightful violin
solo, and then Mrs. G. J. Lord, Of
Cando, in behalf Of the North Da--
kota Women's federation of clubs,
responded briefly but appropriate
ly to the address Of welcome. Miss
Eleanor Goodman then sang solo
in fine voice, and was followed by
Miss Eva Smith, of Crary, who re-
cited "Hagar" with thrilling effect.
The feature of the afternoon,
however, was the address of Miss
Maria L. Sanford, of the Universi-
ty of Minnesota, who spoke on
What Women's Clubs Are Doing
for Public Welfare While COM
ing from Spokane few days ago,
said she picked upa San Francisco
paper in which she found an ar
ticle written by a Mr.. Adams, dole
fully lamenting the condition that
was coming upon the country as a
consequence of women's changed
ideas. He lamented the passing
away Of the women Of the past,
and the speaker said she would
agree that there was one class Of
them at least who were indeed be-
coming scarcer. She referred to
those, she said, who had but one
aim in life and that was to catch q
husband, who thought only of the
men-they are passing away and
peace be to their ashes. On the
other hand, Miss Sanford claimed,
there are many women of high and
earnest motive who are studying
to make their homes better, their
husbands and children happier,
and who are meeting in small clubs
here and there, planning nobler
work to do.
In illustrating what the wom-
ems clubs have done the speaker
first mentioned the enobling of
