The directors of Memorial Hospital
have purchased of Edward F. Lukens
strip of land from the William l..
King homestead, adjoining the hospital
property, having frontage of 81
feet on Morris street, and running to
point in the rear. This will preserve a
row of magnificent shade trees and
afford very desirable additional front
age.
Several other important real estate
transactions are about consummated and
it is believed building will be brisk
during the fall.
Mrs. M. K. Morgan has awarded con-
tracts for the erection of hand some
residence on Miller road from plans
proposed by architect Walsh. The plans

AMENDMENT BY CONVENTION.

Article V. of the federal constitution
provides: 1.-THE congress, whenever
two-thirds of both houses shall deem it
necessary. shall propose amendments
10 this constitution, or, on the april
cation of the legislatures of two-thlrdS
of the several states, shall call a con-
yention for proposing amendments,
which. in either case, shall be valid TO
all intents and purposes, as part of
this constitution. when ratified by the
legislatures of three-fourths of the
several states, or by convention III
three-fourths thereof, as one or the
other mode of ratification may be pro-
posed by congress.
The above mentioned provision
makes it possible for the states to take
the initiative in securing an amend
ment to the constitution and is an
other illustration of the foresight or
the early statesmen. For nearly ten
years the people have been trying 10
secure an amendment providing Tor
the election of senators by a direct
vote of the people. In the fifty second,
fifty-third and fifty-sixth congresses
the necessary resolution passed the
house of representatives, but died In
the senate.
Not only did the resolution pass the
house. but it passed each time by more
than two-thirds vote.
Among the people there is practical
" no opposition to this reform, but
the senate deliberately refuses to per-
nit this change and defies public sem
timent. The time has come for secur-
ing the amendment in spite of the SEN
ate's opposition. The voters, irrespec-
tive of party. should demand of the
state legislatures such action as will
result in compelling congress to cali a
convention. When two-thirds of the
states present their demand in a for
NAL manner. the senate will yield and
the victory will be complete. Now is
the time for action.

War on the Prairie Dog.

There is trouble ahead for the prai-
RE dog. 1t is proposed to begin war
upon the little fellow and try to drive
him from the western plains. This
frisky, interesting animal is accused
of many offenses, chief among them
being that he kills the grass and ruins
good grazing land. Poison is one OF
the means suggested for Kidding the
prairies of eastern Colorado and west
ern Kansas and Nebraska of this ex-
ceedingly active animal, and 1t may be
that in few years instead of the great
prairie dog villages that the western
traveller sees as he speeds across the
country the only specimen to be found
will be in cages or in public parks

Brave Act OF . Tough In SAVING .
Baby.
1t was not e long procession or
pleasing one, but it attracted much at
tention. There was policeman in tho
lead. Beside him walked q stocky,
bull-necked young fellow in a yellow
ISL suit of loud plaid. His face was
bloody, and his right wrist encircled by
the bracelet of the "twisters" which
shackled him to his captor. The face
of the policeman was also bloody and
his clothes were torn. Behind these
each with a handcuffed prisoner. The
kid" and his gang" had been caught
in the act of robbing a saloon, anG the
fight had been lively, although short.
The prisoners had been taken to the
detectives Office, and photographed
and registered for the rogues' gallery.
They were now on their way to court,
and thence, in all probability, to jail.
At Broadway there was jam OF cars
and heavy trucks, and the procession
had to wait. Nobody has been able to
tell just what happened, but they all
agree as to the essential points. First,
the bystanders saw a streak Of yellow,
which was the kid; then a streak Of
blue, which was the policeman. The
prisoner had wrenched the twister
from his captor's hand, and made
dash across the tracks The police
man, thinking of course, that he was
trying to escape, had followed. Then
everybody saw little child toddling
along in the middle of the track. A
cable car, with changing bell, was bear
ing down upon it with a speed which
the gripman seemed powerless to
check. The baby held up its hands and
laughed at the sound Of the gong. On
the other side of the street q woman
was screaming and struggling in the
arms of three or four men who were
trying to keep her from sacrificing her
own life to save that of her child. Then
the kid stood there with the child safe
In his arms, the steel twisters hanging
from his wrist. He set the baby down
gently at his feet, loosened the clasp OF
her chubby hand on his big red fist,
and quietly held out his wrist to the
policeman to be handcuffed again. He
had had one chance in a million for
his life when he made that desperate
leap, but he had not hesitated the frac-
ton of second. Jacob A. Riis was
among those who saw the splendid
deed. If he felt the need of any en-
enlargement in his fight with the
which convert young men like the kid
into ''toughs" before they are twenty.
he must have left that Broadway cross
ing with new hope and a more deter
mined spirit.-Youth's Companion.

THE SPANISH GIRL.
She Has None of the Freedom Ameri-
can Girls Enjoy.

can 0lTis EhJoN.
The Spanish girl has meme of the free
and happy times our girls enjoy after
emancipation from the drudgery OF the
school room and before the cares OF
womanhood begin, says a Madrid cor
respondent All Spanish girls are con-
vent bred and their education consists
very largely in learning to embroider,
which is an art in which they excel.
At II or 10, or even sometimes at II
years old, they make their debut in So
ciety and are considered marriageable.
Girls of ii and boys OF 10 frequently
marry, but divorce is unknown IN
Spain. II a husband and wife cannot
agree they separate and live apart.
The new woman" as we know her
is unknown in Spain, and though the
ladies of that country are often grace
full and clever horsewomen, the bicycle
is only just beginning to make its
way among them. Not only is there
among gentlewOmen a prejudice
against cycling, as not being grace
full accomplishment, but their natural
Incidence makes them prefer to be
carried on horseback to having to ex-
ert their muscles to propel bike.
AS rule Spanish girls take a con-
siderable interest in dress, and though
they have a great love of bright coll
ors they contrive to wear them so
they are becoming. Spanish women
have greater need of care in the mat
ter of dress than have English women,
for they fade so much sooner. They
come to maturity far earlier than their
northern sisters, and, perhaps on &C
count CT their earlier marriages, at 40
they often have lost every vestige OF
youth and beauty and are perfect old
hays.
