A short while ago The Cosmopolitan
published an article by a well-known
writer under the nom de plume of Raj
ford Pyke on ''What Women Like in
Men," which created wide interest not
only in America, but also in England.
The Review of Reviews, of London +.
said that the article showed rare
sympathy, rarer penetration and rar-
est knowledge of woman's nature. -
In The Cosmopolitan for October the
same author discusses with brilliance
and keenness "What Men Like in
Women "There are few in all the
world who would not care to possess
the passports to a mans or woman's
affection, and it is doubtful if truer
| words were ever written about prob
lem which has occupied the world from

ONLY A FEW DAYS TORE
In Which to Get Fine Piano at the
Wholesale Price.

Great opportunities seldom come.
You now enjoy the most remarkable
one to get first class piano or organ
at the wholesale price, which will be
a saving to you of at least $50 on a
piano and $75 on an organ.
The large, fine stock in the
Edwards building on Main street op-
posite the A. G. NJ. Go. store is fast
diminishing, and those who want a
piano or expect to get one within the
next year should not put it off an
other moment, as in few days more
this the greatest and falrest piano
sale ever seen here or will be seel
will have ceased. The new scale
Klmball piano stands strictly first
class by the profession aud the trade
and no other piano in the world ha.
had such an endorsement by The
greatest musicians. Their popularity
IS unparalleled and the demand TO
them is overwhelming. You car
easy save $40 a month .and neve
miss it, and you can't spend the sam,
amonnt of money in any other wa,
that will bring rs much happiues
and permanent benefit to your family
especially if yon buy right now. Yo
can't realize what bargains are offer
ed at this sele; if you did there woul
not be piano left at this store to
morrow night.

COMBINATION EFFECTS.
Railway Magnntes Put Up a BluR to Fool the Conhding
 People.

The giant railroad combination is evidently organized to fleece the public and thus pay dividends on their wa tered stock, not only at its par value, but on the market price of various stocks, many of which are quoted far above par and greatly above the intrin- sic value for which the roads could be replaced. The great railroad mag mates insist that the combination will benefit the public and better the con ditions of the men employed, but this is evidently said to fool the people.
 Freights have already been advanced from 30 to 50 per cent, according to the Washington Post, which says: Prominent western merchants, all heavy shippers of merchandise, are preparing to call to account before the interstate commerce commission the heads of the various railroad combina- tions and the "community of inter- ests" alliances of the trunk lines throughout the country. The charges are made that following those move ments of consolidation freight rates have been advanced from 30 to 50 per cent. through quiet and organized manipulat tion of the various classified tions of commodities. Behind the movement to attack this scheme of freight advances, by applying to the interstate commerce commission for relief, lies the plan for still more wig orous blow. The complainants intend to demand that congress shall take a hand in forcing the formation of uni form classified tion of freights which shall be effective on every railroad in the United States.
 It is encouraging to note that these prominent merchants" are to take ac- tion; hitherto they have stood aloof and left the burden of fighting the rail- roads to the "grangers" and others.
 Their plan of demanding congress to give them relief is the only one that will bring results, though it is very doubtful if the coming congress will be found willing to pass any bill that will really hurt the railroads. Nearly every republican member will ride on a free pass, not only for himself, but for his ia mily, when he comes to Washington, and the general managers who have granted him this favor of course ex- pect protection and favors in return.
 About one year from now the eau cuses and conventions for the nomina- ton of congressman and of legisla i've candidates who will elect United States senators. will be meeting, and then is the time for those who want to curb the rapacity of the railroad trust to get in their work, and in 1903 some thing may be accomplished.

LIST OF THE DISQUALIFIED.
Excluded from Making Homestead Entries in the Newly Coded
 Indian Lands.

Washington, July 9.-Commissioner Harmann, of the general land office, has issued a general circular specify ing the persons who are disqualified from making homstead entries in the Wichita and Kiowa, Comanche and Apache ceded lands. Those disquali- fled are as follows: Any person who has an existing homestead entry, or, after June 6, 1900, abandoned or re- linquished such entry; married woman, unless deserted or abandoned by her husband; those not citizens or who have not declared such intention; any one under 21 years of age at the head of family, unless he served in army or navy 14 or more days in act ual war; proprietors of over one hum dred and sixty acres of land any where; anyone who has perfected title to a homesteal of 160 acres by proof of residence and cultivation for five years or under section ?, act of June 15, 1880; any one whose title acquired and now being acquired by him under the public land laws, in pursuance of entries made since August 30, 1890, with the tract now sought to be en- tered, shall make an aggregate of over one hundred and twenty acres of non- mineral land.

SECRETS OF RECIPROCITY.
Split of Republicans on the TariM Question Brings Interesting
 Revelations.

The controversy that has sprung up between republicans as to the merits of protection and reciprocity is good reading these days, for when thieves fall out honest men may get their dues. The American Economist, the organ of the ultra protectionists is laying down the law with a high hand. It is receiving some pretty heavy raps in return but as long as the trusts and protected monopolies put up the money to make the fight, doubtless the editor of the Economist enjoys the situation and will hit every head that comes up to say a word against its packers. What makes the controversy more interest," ing is that many facts that were known but were difficult to prove arc now being acknowledged. For in- stance, it was we'll known that the republican managers in the senate were held up by the protected indus tries affected and so the French and other reciprocity treaties were not ratified.
 OiAC OI bhOSC W Hung about the matter makes this plain by saying: We invited the French gov- ernment to make a reciprocity treaty. We told them that if they would re- duce their duties upon some of our products we would reduce our duties on some of theirs. This invitation was extended under the authority of the Dingley tariff law, and therefore was the act of congress as we'll as that of the executive but after the executive had performed his part of the duty congress repudiated the whole thing because a few New Eng land manufacturers of knit goods and pinchbeck jewelry, and a few Cali fornians who are trying to raise French walnuts, feared that their products would be reduced.

WILL DROP EMPLOYES.
Railway Combines Will Throw Lots of WOrkingmen Out of Elm
 pIOyment.

The employees of the railroads will suffer by the combination that the railroad interests have perfected, and a good many will be hunting jobs in few weeks. They will thus be thrown into compe tition with the higher-paid clerks in other lines of business and eventually force lower wages than even now prevail for this class of labor. The Railroad News says: Ut is reported that the of- fees of railroads in the different com binations located in all principal cities throughout the country vii be consolidated. The report is revived in connection with the Morgan-Hill syndicate operations. After the of- fees of individual lines under the same ownership have been brought together it is said that thousands of solicitors and passenger agents will be eliminated in the interests of econ omy."
 When these men voted to elect republican congress, and nearly all of them so voted, they helped to in- trench the combines and trusts in power, and their only hope now is to join the attacking force of the democrats and force asunder these combinations, that free competition may again prevail.

PARAGRAPHIC POINTERS.
The expected has happene

The expected has happened in Germany. The financial panic has commenced and the banks are fail ing, and yet business has been boom ing under high protective tariff, with it's concomitant trusts and plu. tocracy.
 Senator Hanna has increased the pay of the men employed on his Cleveland street railway. The Cleve- flanders are asking if it is caused by the buzzing of the presidential bee or the stirring up Tom Johnson has given him.
 The Hanna machine in Ohio was we'll greased and ran with lightning rapidity roughshod over some of the old war horses. Caldwell was with drawn for lieutenant governor to pla- cate the anti-saloon people, but Cox, the Cincinnati boss, named another candidate quite as objectionable.
 The country is not to be en. frightened with the full details of the Chinese campaign, the war depart ment undertaking to judge what shall be published and what not of the report of Gen. Chaffee. This impe- rial idea of censorship is ill-befitting republic where all are entitled to all the information that it's public servants report.
 It is announced that up to the present time the prosecution of Mir. Nicely for the Cuban post office frauds has cost the government $50,0oo, and he is as far from conviction as when he was first arrested. How much Rathbone has cost is not stated. It is quite evident that the republicans do not dare to vigorously prosecute these men or they would have been brought to trial long ago. The threat of Rathbone Ito pull down the pillars of the temple has evidently had its eGaet.

TRUSTS AND SENATOR'S.
Pressure Brought to Bear on Secre- tary Gage Gets Him in
 Line for Them.

The Protective Tariff league of the Home Market club of Boston, who look through the same glasses and see noth- ing but ruin for the country unless the trusts are protected, have been making a fight for some months to get Mir. Gib- son out of the office of counsel to the treasury department before the board of general appraisers and have MT. Washburn, Senator Lodges private secretary, appointed in his place. Sem ator Lodge and other senators have been aiding the, trusts in this matter and in the naughty manner of repub- lican politicians demanded that Secre- tary Gage at once make the appoint ment, and followed it up by a telephone message asking why the removal and the appointment had not been made. Secretary Gage, whose vertebrae is not very rigid, did not resent these de- mands and succumbed to the trusts.
 Noting these facts, the New York Times says: But it would give great joy to some millions of the American people if some time the head of de- partment who dearly loved fight would send back to his insulters through the mails or over the tele- phone wires messages of loud defiance, accompanied by opinions on the char acter and habits of placehunting sem ators, enlivened by epithet and glow ing with justified anger.

BREAD UPON THE WATERS.
Government Expenditures that Will Bring Returns Now md After
 Many Days.

Washington, July 9.-The treasury department yesterday drew warrants aggregating $1,200,000, or $25,000 each for 45 states and two territories, be- ing the maximum amount provided for by congress in the act of August 30, 1890, for the endowment and main- tenance of colleges for the benefit of agriculture and mechanic arts. This act provided minimum sum of $15,0O0 for that year, with an annual increase of $1,000 for ten years up to $25,oO0. The maximum is now reached, and hereafter each of the states ahd ter ritories will receive annually this sum for it's agricultural colleges. This money is the proceeds of the sale of public lands.

MISCELLANEOUS.

On the 4tl, Franl, Tazelow, an aero- naut from Grand Rapids, was killed at Muskegon, Mich, while making d cannon parachute drop. When the balloon had reached height of 1,0Oo feet the ropes holding the cannon broke, and the big gun containing Tazelow dropped into Muskegon lake. Tazelow's body was found in terribly mapgled condition. The ac- cident was witnessed by thousands of people.
 In Chicago, on the 4th, three people were driven insane by the heat. There were also five deaths and IA prostra- tions.
 On the 4th, while Frederick Wright, of Indianapolis, was making a balloon ascension and parachute leap at New Carlisle, Ind, he became entan- gled in the guide ropes when 150 feet above he ground and was pitched to the earth. Thousands witnessed the terrible fall. Wright was picked up unconscious, but still alive.
 Carlton Meyers, a small boy living in West Liberty, La, became entan- gled in the rigging of balloon that ascended there as feature of the Fourth of July celebration, and was carried five miles and dropped, unhurt, in the adjoining county. The crowd which had witnessed his thrilling ad- venture contributed S100 as a reward for his courage and tenacity in hold ing on to the ropes until safely land- ed.
 On the 5th, in arranging for the twenty-fifth anniversary, in August, of the admission of Colorado as a state, the Colorado Springs commit tee completed the details for ban quet to the editors of the state, at which Vice President Roosevelt is to be the guest of honor and principal speaker.
