rell, g~rudgingly, but
"Oh, you really allow that?" cried
Nadia Stoddard, her tone decidedly
sarcastic. How generous of you"
They were together in the music

lounging over the pianoeshe, compos-
ed and d~isdainful, smiling up at him.
The light from an orfole window of
stained glass fell over her where she
sat, and flecked her white wooden
house gown with a thousand tangled
tints of rose and amber and blue.
THAT is ALL" he answered with a
flash of temper, that 1 Go admit, I
have serious doubts as to his integrity

he is not a gentleman"
ooh, this is really too horrid of you,''
she exclaimed. She sprang up, stood
facing him, her hands clenehed at her
sides. What grounds nave you for
your suspicious? You have not even

Tnyoluntarily she paused. her little

Wine and the President.

Certain Methodist ministers have
accused President Mckinley of wine
bibbing, but Methodist 1aymen by the
hundreds and thousands cannot see
why wine, little of it, would not be
as beneficial for Mckinley as for Tim
othy; they do not understand why the
great Apostle would not, if he were
here to do it, prescribe little wine for
the President of the United States as
well as for his son in the Gospel. But
Bishop Walden, of the M. E. church,
has had a long talk with the President
on the subject, and that popular Meth
odist pre1ate declares that Mr.. McKin-
ley when at a banquet allows the
waiter to fiji his glass, but does not
drink the wine; he has, however, a
separate glass from which he drinks
Appolinaris water, "for his stomach's
sake perhaps, just as Presbyter
Timothy was wont to take little
wine. The President of the United
States, Judging from sentiment, is
more of an abstainer than was Paul.

Fants Worth Remembering.

Manufacturers of cotton goods Will
do well to remember that, "the number
of bales of cotton consumed in the
limited States in 1899 was 3, 589, 494 and
that, in 1894, when Cleveland was
President, the cotton used in this
country was fifty per cent. less than IN
last wear under McKin1ey>s admins
tration." This means that in 1894
ENGLAND was doing our manufacturing
for us. while now the American people
manufacture cotton cloth in their own
mills. Let the producers, the people
who have goods to sell, bear in mind
that an excess of $50, 100000 a month
for exports in the United States over
the value of its imports, is not bad
thing for this country to take, and that
the exports of American products and
manufactures were almost S5O,OOO,0OO
greater in March last, than in March
1885," Here, also, is fact for farm
ers to put in their hats-''in 1891 sheep
in Oregon were worth 1922 per sheep;
in 1900 they were worth $2.67 per sheep.
In 1891 the total value of the Oregon
flocks was SIS, 154, ia; today3 they are
worth S6,532, 676, perhaps seven mil
lion dollars; and that, Oregon sheep
owners do not banker for free trade in
wool See the point?

How to keep warm has been the i'm
portant question, Nor has the debate
quite concluded. Woe to the house
holder who has not some coal in his
cellar, even in the middle of May.
This great country has been answer
ing that great question and Uncle
Sam has made enormous contributions
of coal yearly for the comfort of his
rapidly increasing family-a family
that numbers 100000 of all kinds
and all color. His coal mines yielded
in 1892, 162, 100000 tons; in 1898 the
same amount; in 1894, 152, 100000 tons,
something queer in this falling off in
1897, 100, 100000 tons; in 1898, 229, OOO,-
900 tons; in 1899, 258,OOO,OO0 tons.
Who was President during those years?
Kenosha has answered the question
how to keep warm? so far as this COM
munity is concerned by building a
heating plant, with power and force
enough to make every factory. shop,
store, residence and public building
comfortable, even when the outside
world is shivering and freezing at 40
below zero.
But soon the thermometer will indi-
cate rise, soon ninety in the shade,
then the question how keep cool? Ke-
nosha has a cooler" but there is
nothing remarkably cool about it in
midsummer. There are thousands of
coolers" throughout the length and
breadth of the United States, but no
one desires to fall into them. But the
city of Washington, D. c., comes to
the fore and tells the world how to do
it. The plan proposed for the cooling
| off of the overheated, sweltering Wash
ingtonians is, not to put pound Office
in the hat Of every excited Senator
and Congressman, but to pump from
an immense refrigerato tor cold air, fresh
from the mountains of Challenger and
Cooperkey, by the cubic foot to every
building and bedroom in the Capitol
city.

THEY FAVOR JORDAN
City Members of the County Board
Select H. F. Jordan to Accept
Soldiers Monument.
B. H. sTooKER is SUGGESTED.

supervisor C. A. Dewey Suggests That the
President of the old Settlers Club be
Designated as the Repree entative of the
County, But the other Members Say
That Honor Should Go to the Retiring
Chairman.
A special meeting of the city mem
bers of the Kenosha County Board was
held at the office Of the county clerk
Thursday evening for the purpose of
selecting some one to, represent the
county in the acceptance of the sol
diers' monument on Memorial Day.
At the meeting were present Super
visors O'Donne11, Charles, Becker,
Dewey, Reinhardy, Kneip, E1sen and
Ok and County Clerk Crosby. The
meeting was informal and was largely
given over to the discussion of the
plans for the dedication of the monu-
ment and it's acceptance by the county.
1t has always been understood that the
monument will be accepted On the
part of the city by Mayo Sorman, and
according to the usual rotation it
would be expected that the county
be represented on thesoccasion by the
chairman of the County Board.
At the meeting-which was not held
for the purpose of taking any advan-
tage Of the country membership gen
era1 opinion Of the city members was
that the monument should be accepted
n NJ 6o5
account of the faithful service of Mr..
Jordan as Chairman of the Board he
should be allowed this honor. While
not opposing the selection of Mr.. Jor-
dan, Commissioners Dewey and Charles
thought that it was about right that the
county should be allowed some repre-
sentation on the great day, and sug-
gested the name of B. F. Stocker to
represent the county.
Mr.. Stocker is the president of the
Old Settlers club of the county, a re-
tired soldier and a man who has
always taken great deal of interest
in the affairs of the soldiers and their
friends in the county. And then the
old sore which has been connected
with the building and location of the
monument has been entirely healed,
and Mr.. Dewey held that it would be a
splendid way for the city members of
the Board to show that the past had
been forgotten, and that the city and
county were united in the acceptance
of the gift of Mr.. Simmons to the city
and county.
This view was not taken by any of
the other members of the Board, with
exception of Mr.. Charles who supported
Mr.. Dewey. The other members held
that it would not be proper for the
Board to go outside it's members to
select man to represent the county,
and the suggestion of Mr.. Dewey was
turned down by vote Of six to two.
Supervisor Charles, of theS Second
ward, voting for Mr.. Dewey's propo-
sition.
Of course the action of the meeting
last evening was simply preliminary,
and the matter will be settled definite
1y by the entire boon in short time.

In Her Place.

For everything an appointed place.
One star out of position would shock
the universe. For men and women
there is a divine1y ordained sphere
and relationship; it were folly to 1g-
more the fact and a difficult task to
countermand the decree. But pres
sure is on the age which IN certain
quarters is pushing woman out OF her
place. The doctrine latest born, Mrs.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Miss
Susan B. Anthony assisting at the &C
couchement, is that presented to the
world in the notion that woman's
rights require that woman shall be
warrior if she desires it. eff woman
wants to fight" they say, "she has
perfect right to- And they praise
the Boer wives for taking part with
their husbands in the Boer battles
with the British. Thus by woman
woman is dewomanized. She is pushed
out of her place.
The result of such teaching has re-
Gently been illustrated in the Trans
vaa1. Naturally Boer women are pos
sessed of all those delicate and tender
qualities which in ali countries have
elevated womanhood to higher moral
plane than man usually occupies and
has made the feminine character the
theme of poets and the inspiration of
heroes. The Boer daughter, sister,
wife and mother has in her soul the
instincts of lady. But woman of
the Transvaa1, or the Orange Free
State, or of any other nation clothed
in mems attire, drilling in the ranks
with the rougher sex. a rife on her
shoulder, climbing the kopjies, shoot
ing at men to kill them, and after the
battle 1ooting the dying and the slain;
or compelled to battle with other pris-
oners, revealing her sex; or found on
the field bloody, stark and cold, seems
to be sadly out of place. She is un-
sexed, has become poor apology for
man, has been metamorphosed indeed,
from an angel to an amazon,as Lycaon
was changed into wolf, or Arachne
into a spider.
Deprive the gentle sex of sympathy,
that charming something that aids
more than any other power or inf1u-
ence in destruction of se1fshness and
discord; pluck out of the feminine ma
ture the divine instinct of motherhood,
that impulse to fold all suffering and
needy humanity as a mother folds her
babe in her arms; strike from the soul
of woman ideals of right and wrong
and religion, and the woman of poetry,
of Scripture, of mems 1oftiest thought,
is no more. Woman will move in
broad and ha11owed sphere, and be SOW
ereign in an empire worth her while,
if she abides, acts and reigns within
those boundaries providential1y APP
pointed for her. Let woman vote if
that shall delight her, but let the whole
world revolt when she is pushed out of
her place.
