Do Girls Lack Honor?

Many men there are who insist that
the majority Of girls Of today are lack
ing in honor if not in common homes
ty. One man, who is we'll to do in the
world and does not care a rush for a
dollar and is continually loaning small
sums to his young women friends, as
serts that he has seldom if ever been
repaid, and fears that he would be
attacked with heart palpitation if a
tender of payment of these loans
should be made. But men are not the
only victims of the borrowing girl.
She frequently mulcts those of her
own sex. It may be safely said that
the girl who borrows half dollar from
"a girl chum when shopping because
her own funds have been exhausted
and then fails to return it as soon as
tsheTeceiyes her next weeks allowances
is the very girl who, when she becomes
"a housekeeper, will thrust all of her
finally scheme all sorts of ways to
meet them, and failing in her ability
to do so, pout and say that the trades
people are mean things" not to ex-
tend her credit, says an exchange.
Every schoolgirl knows the type of
girl who would not be thought stingy
for the world, is jolly and ready to
"go halves" on all sorts of fun, yet
who often neglects to reimburse the
one who has stood the whole expense
because at the moment it was more
convenient or less conspicuous to do
so. This girl will finally meet the
obligation, but she will do so at her
convenience. Maybe the girl who has
footed the bill'' will suffer all sorts of
little Inconvenience because of the un-
usual demand made upon her purse,
but pride forbidding her mentioning it
she just suffers in silence. The girl
even with an almost limitless income
should be taught to know that she is
one of the fortunate few, that perhaps
her girl associates must be as careful
of their pennies as she is of her dollars
and that without show or any indica-
ton OF patronage she should always
meet and never neglect any obligation.

Clever Idea,

1t has been a mystery and a conun-

little time how women did without
pockets, and also a wonder to the
aforesaid man why women did not lose

handkerchiefs than they did, for it was
a marvel to them how the women man

complicated performance. For. some

EVIDENCE OF A PLOT
TO KILL KING HUMDERT.
Paris Police officers Make
Startling Disclosures.
HORROR AND INDIGNATION

European Press Comments on the AS
misunderstanding Anarchists Dis
cuss the Crime = Political Signifi-
cance-Brief Sketch of Assassin.
PARIS, July 31.-It can be stated on
the best authority that the French police
are in possession of important facts con-
corning the antecedents and associates
Of Bressi, the murderer of King Hum
bert, and that they are in communities
ton with the Italian police on the sub
ject While Italian anarchist leaders
who have found refuge in Paris declare
publicly that there is no plot behind the
assassination, the information IN the
hands Of the police shows the reverse to
be true.
One of the chiefs of police In an inter-
view declared that after the Milan
troubles Of 1893 the Italian political
refugees poured into France and that
many who suffered terms of hard labor
then are now coming out Of prison and
finding their way abroad. These groups
OF political refugees who would have
grievances against Humbert are verita-
bic hotbeds of intrigue against the Ital-
ian monarchy.
Bressi passed some time in Paris, and
has certainly been brought in contact
with the revolutionary Italian party
there and went from Paris to several
other European capitals.
The object of Bressi's stay In America
is declared to have been to collect funds
for the anarchist cause among Italian
workmen in the United States who have
more money than their compatriots at
hime. IN an interview Amilcar Capri
ana, the italian revolutionary leader,
said that he was glad to hear Of the
kings death, and considered the killing
an admirable aot. This statement, from
such source. is of the greatest i'm
portance as showing the act had politi-
cal significance.

DARIEN, Ga, July 31.-Arthur Ham

been filing the place Of the striking
longshoremen, who went out on strike
about four weeks ago. There is no clew
to the murderer, whatever, although
Hamilton was accompanied by a negro
who was taking his satchel home for

on the public highway, the wind blew
off his hasAnd while he stopped to pick
it up, he heard gunshot and on look
ing up he saw Hamilton hmping away
few steps and fall. He gave the alarm,
and Hamilton was removed to his home,
where he died.
1t is thought by some that tho murder
was done from spirit of revenge by one
of the strikers, and by others that 1t
was from private quarrel. Hamilton
could give no explanation whatever.

vanced faster at Galveston and gulf
ports than at New York.
Ship owners are asking more all the
time for their ships and it is difficult to
find out what the rates are likely to be
for the coming season. If the trouble
in China is not soon settled the rates,
he stated, would doubtless be very high.
The Galveston ship brokers are not
quoting any rates at present, though
the Texas grain crop is very large, and
is moving Co that port at rapid rate
