Gen. Cassius NJ. Clay's Daughter Has
Done Much for Her Sex In Kentucky.
Within the past twelve years Miss
Laura Clay. woman suffragist and
daughter of the famous old Whitehall
general, Cassius NJ. Clay. has revolu-
tionized the position Of women in Ken
lucky. She is the president and found
er of the Equal Rights Association OF
Kentucky and under her leadership
wonders have been accomplished. She
Is mild-mannered, blue-eyed, round
faced little woman of pleasing address,
but in pertinacity and vigorous intel
lect she is her noted fathers daughter.
From girlhood she has been a stanch
advocate Of the idea that commercial
ly, legally. professionally and politi-
cally. woman is and should be recog-
nized as the equal of man. In 1888 she
began the serious battle for this idea.
She was chosen president Of the State
Equal Rights Association in that year
and appeared in Frankfort with GER
tain bills which the association wished
to have passed. At first politicians
laughed the matter away. but ere long
they found occasion to review their
opinion of the equal rights propaganda.
They passed some of the bills and
thought that ended the matter. but the
next session found the women lobby
ing as actively as ever. Bills were
passed going step further. and now
the committee from the Equal Rights
Association is one of the fixtures at
Frankfort.

WASPS BENEFIT THE FIGS.
Insects Arc Necessary to the Fruits
Successful Cultivation

Insects Arc Necessary to the Fruits
Successful Cultivation.
The long-continued effort to produce
the Smyrna fig of commerce in Cali
fornia has been crowned with success.
The history Of the experiment is in
teresting. 1t began over twenty years
ago with importation of cuttings from
Asia Minor. Figs have been produced
from these and other imported cut
tings, but they were not the famous
white fig Of commerce. The credit of
producing the latter in California be-
longs to George C. Roeding of Fresno.
Until this summer every true Smyrna
fig tree planted in California which
bore fruit failed to mature 1t; the figs
were unfertilized and withered and
dropped. 1t was finally discovered that
the fertilization Of this fig depended
upon the service of the blastophaga
wasp, whose habitat Is In the capri.
or wild fig. The latter was imported
and thrived amazingly, but the balsto-
phaga did not accompany 1t. Special
importations Of the wasp followed, but
1t thrived only for a season on the
capri fig and then disappeared. 1t was
assumed that it could not survive our
winters. Last year the department of
agriculture took the matter in hand.
A fresh consignment was imported and
its care intrusted to Mr.. Roeding. Last
April the young insect colony emerged
in full force from the first capri cot.
entered the second, emerged again, and
then took possession of the Smyrna
fig trees, the fruit on which was ready
for fertilization. Mr.. Roeding reports
that this experiment has been perfectly
successful. A ton of the fruit has al
ready been picked from his trees and
the entire crop will yield FIVE OF six
tons more. Mr.. Roeding believes that
the blastophaga has come to stay and
he expects that California will be en-
riched soon with another industry

WHITE GIRL AS INDIAN.
She Has Had = Strange Life Among the
Biackfeet.

Blackfeet.
The curious story of white girls
life among the Blackfeet Indians for
16 years just come out through a suit
brought by Alice Burke against Thorn
as Husson, q cattle rancher OF Eastern
Oregon to recover ranch which once
belonged to her father. and is now
valued at $4,000 dollars, says the "Chi-
cago Herald" Burke and old Husson
started to cross the plains from Kansas
to Oregon. Burke was detained and
sent his girl, then two years old, with
Mrs. Husson. Husson sold the child to
a Blackfoot Indian Chief for IL ponies,
and when Burke arrived in Oregon
told him that Alice had died. Six years
ago Burke died, and the Illusions have
been in possession of his ranch. Alice
meanwhile grew up among the tribe,
and when white people noticed her fine
hair. the Indians said she was half
breed whose parents were dead. She
gained the love Of the son Of q chief
named Fleetwing, who was sent to
Carlisle. When he was there Alice took
lessons OF the Indian agents wife and
kept pace with him In his studies.
When the agent was removed she went
with him to Boise City, but his wife
died, and she had to take place al
a servant, and was kitchen drudge
for many months. Then Fleetwing sent
her money, and she returned to the
reservation. The revelation of her
white blood came when she was an APP
plicant for place in big tribal cere-
mony. Then young Husson appeared
and told her the story, but offered her
only 500 for her fathers property.
She refused and investigated, and is
now suing for the recovery of the land.
When she gets 1t she is to marry John
Fleetwing.

COLONY SCHEME A SUCCESS.
Salvation Army's Experiment ut Fort
Amity, Col.

Salvation Army's Experiment Mt Fort
Amity, Col.
A problem which has vexed deep
thinkers of every age and those of no
age more than the present is that fur
nished by the poverty-stricken unfor-
Inmates who help to people the earth.
To find solution OF the problem many
experiments have been tried with
varying success, none being so sue
cessful as to furnish a satisfactory So
luton. The latest experiment to be
conducted on big scale was started
three years ago by the Salvation Army
and, 1t is said, it has developed into one
Of the best schemes for redeeming the
honest unfortunates of the great cities,
who, panic-stricken in an overwhelm-
ing menace Of misfortunes, seek in
vain for advice, for guidance, for prac,
teal aid
From the commencement of opera
tons on tract of 1000 acres at Fort
Amity, Colo, owned and directed by
the Salvation Army, in April, 1898, to
September 10, 1900, the accounts show
that the Salvation Army has loaned
its colonists s24,93S, or at the rate of
1897 per colonist for % families. They
have paid back s7,274, at the rate of
$3.50 per colonist.
The possibilities of this colonization
scheme are endless, because it is on a
practical business basis. The unem-
ployed are loaned money for invest
ment in land, which they earn by Ia
Dor and profit according to the i'm
provements they make in their OVID
settlements.
The Salvation Army bought the land
at Fort Amity for $3.50 an acre. ,fhe
colonists, after three years work value
1t at 500 an acre, and it belongs to
them. The usual allotment is 10 acres,
but they can buy 20 If they like. They
are given team of horses, COW, pigs,
poultry and groceries. Everything is
charged to their account, and they pay
nothing until they have earned it on
their own land.
The original capital was raised by
a bond issue for s150.OO0, and then a
system Of selecting suitable colonists
was begun. For this purpose blanks
were issued for applicants seeking an
allotment. in which they answered all
questions considered necessary.

Chicago, Sept. with spars and

part Of the big deckioad of cedar poles

steamer Pewaukee was towed into port
at 6 o'clock last evening after ter
rifle battle with the gale on Lake

of thirteen men, completely worn out
after hard days work at the pumps
to keep their steamer from going down
under them, lost no time in jumping
on to the dock after the Pewaukee
had been towed to mooring place in
the slip near the life-saving station.
1t was only owing to the fact that the
cargo consisted principally of dry
cedar posts and ties that the boat and
crew were able to reach the harbor.
The Pewaukee had taken on a cargo
at Cheboygan, Mich. Telegraph poles
were loaded on deck and were piled to
the height of sixteen feet. The ties
