bon- / would rejoice that any OF my girls
should count this a matter not only OF very
little consequence, but even a source or just
pride. II the price of the feather and buckle
had been either USED unsel1shly for the
comfort of the family or bestowed upon
some needy persons. i could not nope OF

Servile-it is servile--imitation of what is

The things a girl should tax great pride

their parents bearing-anxious both for

1ney We're Forming Opinions

The club was full. Evening papers
were at premium. An atrocious crime
had been that day committed, and ey
cry member was reading the account
of the tragedy and eagerly discussing
the details.
A foot had been found IN the East
river, leg in the Hudson and the trunk
Of body in the park. Loud were the
expressions Of horror and disgust. Sud
denly a lull came over the crowd, and
two small voices were heard above the
modified din discussing the law Of hui
man nature which made people lean
toward curiosity even in its morbid
tendency. The small voices grew louder
and the argument stronger, until at
last a man in tones Of undisguised pity
turned to the disputants and said:
$50 you think we are filed with NOR
bid curiosityY
One Of the small voices replied that
it looked very much as If that was the
case.
Nothing Of the kind" expostuIated
the former speaker. You mistake our
motive. We are merely dlsquallfying
ourselves for jury duty"
The men with the small voices imme-
diately seized the only two newspapers

ABOUT TROLLEY LINES.
Many New Trolley Lines Projected
IN Wisconsin.

A special dispatch to the Milwaukee
Sentinel of yesterday, from GAINESVILLE,
says that there is an impression abroad,
that the trolley lines, projected by
Philadelphia capitalists to different
summer resorts in southern Wisconsin,
are but step in the organization OF the
most extensive network of electric
lines in southern and eastern Wiscon-
sin that there is in the world, with the
possible exception of that in the vicinity
of Cleveland, where one syndicate owns
several hundred miles of suburban, in
terurban and city electric roads.
Among the projected roads is one from
Kilbourn TO Baraboo and Madison,
which will be extended north it is be-
lieved, will put the southern portion OF
the state in direct connection with the
Wisconsin river valley, where a line is
soon to be built from Merrill to Grand
Rapids, by way of Wausau and Stevens
Point,

The Stevens Point Journal quotes a
part of what the PILOT had to say last
week about the recent murder which
took place in that city, and to the sug-
gestiOn made by this paper, that ''Stev-
ems Point should get up a vigilance
committe and rid its city of toughs,"
says:
There has been talk of vigilance
committees and of mob violence here
| in connection with this last affair
but we take it that no good citizen will
at any time advocate mob violence
| The law should at all tines, and under
all circumstances, be allowed to take
its course. The law is all right if it is
enforced; if the officers do their duty
and receive the cordial support of law
abiding citizens, the guilty will be pun
ished and there will be no excuse for
mobs or vigilance committees.
The fact that crime is not pun
ished is frequently the excuse for mob
violence, and we do not want any more
mObs or any more homicides in Stevens
Point"
The PILOT does not advocate any
thing of the kind. Lynching bees, and
the like, only tend to make matters
worse and are a foul blot upon any
community. But the good people of
Stevens Point can certainly organize a
citizens league, Ia vigilance committee,
if you please to see that laws are en-
forced; that saloons are properly con-
Quoted; that toughs are listed and
watched. The Journal may well say:
''neighbor, pluck the beam from thine
own eye" before offering gratuitouo
advice to Stevens Point. In a measure,
the Journal would be justified in doing
so. Grimes are committed in every COM
munity, but they are mostly of differ
ent nature. such as fighting, stealing,
gambling, etc. But the journal will
admit that the frequent murders at
Stevens Point calls for more than the
work Of an ordinary city government;
it certainly calls for the united efforts
of all good citizens. Not to 60 out
and lynch criminals, but to clean out
the filthy, fostering places that are
dyed with the blood of many Il poor
victim. This cannot be done in night,
nor in a day, but a start must be made
if the good people who dwell in our
sister city, ever hope to put a stop to
this wholesale way of taking human
life. The PILOT is of the opinion that
police force should be a detective
force as we'll; should be composed of
, the most honorable and fearless men
in a community; should enter the saloon
only when wanted there to quell dis
turbance and above all, not allowed to
use intoxicants. A citizens league
should be so strong in every city and
town throughout the country that the
least violation of rules in any depart
ment of municipal government, would
mean a discharge Also a saloon keeper
who will sell liquor to an intoxicated
person, should have his license revoked
This would not mean drastic measures
lynching bees, or anything of the sort
in Stevens Point, or in any other city
but it would mean untiring work by ;
number of good citizens who would Sc,
to it that there was daily lettering o
the conditions along these lines.

OUR DAIRY INTERESTS.

L. X. Wright, Secretary of the Mara
thon County Agricultural Society, has
placed in the premium list $500 on
creamery butter, arranging it so that
many will get premiums-all whose
butter is above a certain number OF
points. Marathon county is getting to
the front very fast in dairy matters,
and it is becoming recognized that
there is no better soil in the state for
raising gold cattle, and its dairy pro-
ducts rank well with the best in the
world. During the month of June the
Stettin creamery distributed 81, 900 to
the farmers who furnished milk. Every
creamery in the county should take an
interest in our county fair. By so doing
they will not only help themselves but
will further the dairy interests in the
county.

ApuiualdO'S Offer.

In another column will be found
dispatch which recently appeared in
the New York World and the st. Louis
Post-Dispatch, describing an offer made
by some Filipinos claiming to represent
Aguinaldo.
When Mr.. Bryan was in New York
he received a letter from gentleman
saying that two Filipinos were in the
city and desired to call, but the letter
was not read in time to be answered
before the Filipinos arrived. They
were refused admittance, and friend
was sent with a verbal answer to the
letter explaining that Mr.. Bryan did not
think it proper to confer with them, and
stating that the democratic party was
not opposing imperialism because of
friendliness to the Filipinos but because
Imperialism was dangerous to Ameri-
can institutions. The Filipinos said that
Aguinaldo was willing to issue proc
clamation promising to lay down arms
in case of Mr.. Bryan's election, and
also willing to contribute to the demo-
| cratic campaign fund, but Mr.. Bryan
refused to consider either proposition,
and did not require them to furnish any
evidence of their right to represent
Aguinaldo or speak for him. AS the
matter has been discussed in other
papers, the story and this explanation
are given to the readers of The Com
moner.-The Commoner.

able to attend to business. He was

WEEKLY
TRIBUNE
PAINT ON INDIAN FACES.
Nearly All of 1t Means Something t
N

Nearly All of 1t Means Something to
Those Initiated.
The fact of the matter is that every
paint mark on an Indians face is a
sign with a definite meaning which
other Indians may read. When an In
dian puts on his full war paint, he
decks himself not only with his own
individual honors and distinctions won
by his own bravery, but also with the
special hOnors of his family or tribe.
He may possess one mark of distinc-
- IN only or many. In fact, he may be
20 we'll off in this respect that, like
some English noblemen, he is able to
don new distinction for every occa-
sion. Sometimes he will wear all his
honors at one time.
Among the Indian tribes is one desig-
mated by the symbol of the dOgish,
painted in red on the face. The vari-
Gus parts of the fish are scattered
heterogeneously on the surface of the
face; the peculiarly long snout is paint
ed on the forehead. the gills are repre-
scented by two curved lines below the
eyes, while tno tai! is shown as cut in
two and hanging from either nostril.
When only one or two parts of an ami
NAL are painted on a mans face, it is
an indication Of inferiority; when the
whole animal appears, even though in
many oddly assorted parts, the sign
is one of great value and indicates a
high rank.
Very peculiar are some Of the honor
able symbols painted on the Indians
faces. There are fish, flesh and fowl
of all kinds-dog salmon, devilfish,
starfish, woOdpeckers. eagles, ravens,
wolves, bears. sea lions and sea mon
sters, mosquitoes. frogs, mountain
goats and all manner of foot, claw or
beak marks-each with special mean
ing Of its own.-Pearson's Magazine.
