ROOSEVELT Up A TREE

Meeker, Colo, Jan. 1S.-Colonel
Roosevelt enjoyed a parallel for his San
Juan experience last evening, the chief
difference being that in this case the
doughty rough rider was the subject Of
attack and not the agressor. For four
hours he was kept in tree by a pack
of hungry wolves, until finally help ar
rived in other members of the hunting
party, who had been searching for him
for two hours.

The Housekeeper,. Hands.

"Housework is rather hard on the
| hands, but there are some precautions
which if taken will add greatly to the
comfort of the worker and the appear
ance Of the hands," writes Maria Par
loa in The Ladies' Home Journal
among the things which roughen and
blacken the hands the most important
are dust, soap, fruit, vegetables and
neglect to properly dry the hands.
Wash all the vegetables before pairing
When the hands are stained by fruit or
vegetables, be sure to remove the
stains before the hands come in con-
tact with soap or soapy water. Re-
move the stains with an acid, such as
lemon, vinegar or sour milk then wash
In clear water. When using soap and
water for any purpose, be sure to rinse
off all the soap before wiping the
hands. Always wipe the hands per-
fectly dry. Do not change soaps If you
can avoid it and always use a good
soap. When sweeping and busting,
wear loose fitting gloves. Have pair
of rubber gloves for use when it is nee
essary to have the hands in water a
great deal. Grease spoils rubber there
fore the gloves must be washed per-
fectly clean as soon as the work is fin
ished. A little bran and milk or vine
gar will make the hands clean and
smooth after dish washing or any other
work that roughens them. With a lit
tie practice one can wash dishes as
well and as quickly with a dish mop as
with a cloth and the hands. There
should be two mops, one for the table
ware and one for the cooking dishes.
For washing floors have self wiring
ing mop. To soften and whiten the
hands use some sort of cream on them
at night, then powder them with corn
starch and put them in loose gloves
kept for this DurDOSe"

sion to the throne of Emperor Nicholas
King Edward, who is very fond of the
Grand Duke Michael and an admirer of
his wife, has repeatedly interceded In
his behalf and has so far succeeded
that the car has restored to the grand
duke all his former honors and digni-
ties, including his military rank, be-
sides repeating the law Of Punishment.
He declined, however, to recognize
the marriage, even as morganatic al
lance, and owing to this the countess
is barred not only from the court of st.
Petersburg, but likewise from all other
courts, the emperor's consent being
necessary to render valid the marriage
of any of the members of his house.
While therefore the Countess Torby
will not appear here at any court func-
tons, she will be popular and promi-
nent figure in English society. Indeed
it is the warm welcome which she has
received from the latter which has in
duced the grand duke to establish his
home here

Twenty women and 80 or more chill
dren of Guntur, India, are enabled to
earn their daily rice by means of the
school for embroidery started in that
place by women of the Evangelical
Lutheran mission 10 years ago.
The institution was an outgrowth of
primary school established for Mo-
hammedan children some years before.
The object of the school was to create
an opening for Christian women as
well as to give them source of reve-
hue and to encourage the exquisite art
in which they excel. The materials
used are silks, gold and silver laces,
fancy brass laces, tinsel and beetle
wings, all of native manufacture. The
work is done on hand woven cotton
cloths, Roman satin, satin serge, plush
and velvet. The pupils receive a secu-
lar education and also technical train
ing in drawing, designing and needle
work.
Only Mohammedan and Christian
women are admitted. The school is
self supporting, but no one except the
embroiderers receives a profit from it..
The work is sold in India, in Europe
and America, the largest part being
disposed of here.
At the Madras fine arts exhibition a
large display of the embroidery was
awarded six first prizes, two second
prizes and six honorable mentions.
Half the amount of the prize money,
$32, was divided among the women,
each receiving a sum proportionate to
her skill. Some had never in their
lives had so much money at one time
as fell to their share. One woman re
ceived $2.45 as her portion, and she felt
that she had suddenly leaped into
wealth. 1t was wonderful how far she
made it go. She paid six months ar
rearage of rent, settled debts of long
standing, bought necessary clothing for
herself and child and with the balance
laid in supply Of food for her family,
which includes her aged father. She is
now toiling from o'clock in the morn
ing until 5 in the evening, doing the
most beautiful work, for there is no
pattern too intricate for Zehrabee's
needle.
A gold medal was also given to the
school at the Paris exhibition. Among
the patronesses of the institution are
Lady Wenlock, wife of Lord Wen
lock, former governor of the Madras
presidency; Lady Harris of the Bonn
bay Presidency and the woman in
spector of Madras schools. A grant
in aid' from government funds is re-
ceived annually.-New York Tribune.

Mistress and Maid.

Mrs. Hugh Price Hughes in an arti-
Gle in a Yorkshire paper declares that
she is more and more convinced after
years of experience that much of the so
called servant difficulty arises from the
fact that mistresses cannot bring them
selves to realize that the same human
nature exists in them and their serv-
ants. "They have a fatal lack of mag
| nation in dealing with their servants
and forget their servants have the
same human desires, aspirations, fail
ings and contradictions as reign in
their own bosoms. The servant must
be always contented, respectful, cheer
full. She must not grumble, she must
not have moods or nerves, she must
not be eager for holidays or visitors,
and in all things she must put the in
terests and convenience of her employ
ers first. Many mistresses if judged by
the standard with which they measure
their servants would be found fatally
| lacking"
| Mrs. Hughes believes that we are in
a transitional period and that the
| probability is that people with small
| incomes will have to adopt very
simple style Of living and do much of
their domestic work themselves. Sat
the present moment" she says, 81
know ladies of small means who are
managing very comfortably without
servants at all. They do their own
work with the help of an occasional
charwoman, and the residential flats
which are now being built so extern
| sively in large cities greatly facilitate
arrangements of this kind" In Mrs
Hughes opinion it is probable that our
domestic service will become a pro-
fession for ladies in exactly the same
way as nursing has become a refined
profession

His Mothers Rooms.

| A house decorator well known in
New York has recently had an unusual
order. He was asked to decorate and
furnish a suburban house which has
| just been built by multimillionaire.
The house is a superb one and Is to
| be furnished according to the latest
| laws of decorative art, but in one part
| the owners individual ideas are to be
carried out.
"You and my wife can settle the rest
of the house, and I'll pay the bills"
said the millionaire, "but I'm going to
run my mothers room. I've got a
| blessed old mother who was born in a
little New England town and lived
there until my father died ten years
ago. Then she came to us, and she
| hasn't been happy.
"She adores us all, and we've given
her every care and luxury, but she
doesn't fit in. She was too old to be
reset. She thinks our home is all very
gorgeous and wonderful, but in her
own heart know she doesn't like it.
"She learned her canons of taste
in a village in the New Hampshire
hills, and modern ideas jar her. She
has gone slipping around on our hard
wood floors and sitting ON the edge
of our Louis Quinze furniture and
keeping her dress away from the satin
cushions piled up on our couches and
shutting her eyes when she passed our
marbles. She never has slept we'll in
that brass bed with the silk and lace
fiubdubs, and the cheval glass bothers
her.
"Now, I'm going to put her where
she belongs for the rest of her days.
I've got big sunny room for her, with
bedroom off from it. / want you

A CULINARY GENIUS.
Cooked Dinner In His Home While
at Business In His Office.

The ordinary man Is nowhere more
out of place than in the kitchen. All
rules have their exceptions, however,
and a correspondent sends story of
a man who might have led armies per-
haps, but was certainly equal to Gull
naTy emergencies.
In the absence of his wife and family
1t became necessary, as he thought, for
him to cook his own dinner, and in
view of the fact that he was man of
business his presence was also needed
down town at his Office.
Now the same body cannot be in two
places at once, and this well known
consideration would have settled the
question for an average man. He
in the kitchen or gone to his Office and
lunched out. This, however, was a
man to whom physical laws do not
courtesy even as custom to great kings.
The case stood thus:
He was to have boiled dinner and
would have it done to a turn, piping
hot and ready to serve at his home
coming. The meat, turnips and beets,
therefore, which require a longer time,
he put on before leaving the house.
The potatoes and cabbage, needing less
time for cooking, were put on the GOV.
er of the pot.
Then he dropped string through a
hole in the edge of the cover, ran it
through a loop suspended from the
ceiling and thence down to the sink.
In the sink hole he firmly stuck can
die, to which, two inches below the
top, he tied the string.
Last of all he lighted the candle and
went to his business. In two hours, or
about half an hour before he was to
return, when it was time for the vege-
tables on the cover to go to their APP
pointed place, the slowly descending
fame burned the string, which releas-
ed the otherwise unsupported edge Of
the cover, which dropped its burden
into the pot and fell back where it be-
longed.

AN INDIAN CIGAR SIGN.
The Fate That Overlook One Aggres
sive Wooden Savage.

The Fate That Overlook One Aggres-
sive Wooden Savage.
The city Of Little Muddy, on the up
per Yellowstone, was an exceedingly
wide awake town in 1887. When it
had reached the mature age Of 3
months, every kind Of business man
was represented except the cigar deal
er, and the next week a man from Chi
cago named Stark opened q tobacco
store, with large, gaudy and aggres-
sive wooden Indian in front, holding a
tomahawk savagely in one hand and a
bunch of cigars in the other. 1t would
take chapter to tell of all the trouble
Stark had with that wooden aborigine
This variety of sign was rare in that
region, and gentlemen not unconnected
with the stock growing industry who
came in from the ranges wearing spurs
and weapons would resent his threat
ening attitude-for that matter, no In
dian. even the most peaceably dispos-
ed, was popular. He was knocked off
his pedestal half dozen times a day
Stark learned to know what had hap
pened whenever he heard a dull crash
in front and would step outside and re-
store his fallen warrior.
But the red man did not meet his
Waterloo till lobe Hartley and a
friend, preserved to us under the name
of Long Isaac, came in from the Light
ning's Nest neighborhood. A close
friendship existed between these two
worthless 1t was their first vacation
from the ranch for several months.
They wandered about town in re-
ceptive mood and sought to enjoy their
visit. No facts are eXtant concerning
their condition after some hours, but
we may perhaps be allowed our suspi-
cions. Finally they separated, and
lobe, coming along to the Indian and
not noticing his appraised Ratchet sat
down at his feet to rest. He soon fell
asleep and sank lower At this juno
ture Isaac came around the corner and
took in the tragic situation at glance.
''Killed my partner for a simple
bunch of cigars, did you" he cried
"Well, We'll see about it," and he pro-
duced his firearms and began shooting
accurately and rapidly. At the end of
ten minutes Stark gathered up his no.
BILE savage in basket, while the resus-
citated lobe and the avenging Isaac
moved off arm in arm.-Harper'S Mag
azine.

Emigration of Women.

At meeting of the British Women's
Emigration society in London the 9th
er day Colonial Secretary Chamber
lain advocated raising a special fund
to encourage the emigration of women
to South Africa. A similar movement
is also seen in Germany. In each of
these countries there are over 900 900
more women than men, and societies
In both countries are attempting to
deal with problems which this situa-
ton presents.
The British Emigration society was
organized several years ago for the
purpose of assisting reputable women
to remove to the colonies. a large
number of British women are debarred
from marrying because Of the excess
of their sex, and they have a hard
struggle in the effort to support them
selves, for the women are more nu-
merous than the opportunities. The
iaudable aim of the emigration society
is to interest self dependent women
in the colonies and help them to estab-
llSH themselves Ill THESE ulStdHL cOuu-
tries, where they may find far better
chances Of self support or desirable
marriages.
The efforts of the society thus far
have met with much success. They
send to the colonies only worthy wom-
en- of the class that are needed to help
in the upbuilding of new countries
Hundreds of women have gone to Aus
tralia and South Africa. The emigra-
ton to Canada has been less numerous
though west of Ontario women are
still in the minority. No one can travel
from Winnipeg to the Rocky noun
tains without hearing on every side
that thousands of women might find
on the prairles and plains good homes
