Therefore, when Americans go home. they
will leave their girls behind. Should this
be so, 1t may be pitiful and provocative of
tears, but not very tragic. II the Ameri-
cans will not take the girls, they will not
take the babies. and no native girl likes an
American as we'll as she likes her baby.
Native social notions have not yet reached
that exalted stage which deprives a girl
OF caste because she may have been de-
ceived or deserted. She can make her own
way after his departure. and probably get
some one to take his place who will be
more worthy OF her affection. Besides. a
baby with a skin whittier than her own
may become a smart man. and all the
credit of it will be hers, 10 make proud
and comfort her age.
MOdesty is a conspicuous trait in the ma
tive woman. She is unobtrusive in speech
and conduct. Any one. may see that she
can wear but few garments and that she is
not at all careful TO hide her bare ankles.
She likes TO display one shoulder, and let's
the upper garment on that side fall, so that
from the firm, round neck there is always
on view a shapely slope that appeals to
the sense OF artistic symmetry. The
woman may not be pretty. but she drapes
AtIScAA III COlOE contrasts that are SbI4hlA5
and make her look like a picture. She
stands traight, walks free and all that
the world ever sees uncovered is from
the tip of that brown shoulder upward
II is the same at the bathing hour. Ma
tive taste has not been elevated TO the
bath-house-habit. Men and women go on
the beach together. and stand side by side
in getting into their bathing suits, and
she will shut herself as completely from
view of the man, and the rest of the world,
by the way she handles her skirt, as If
she were encased in a stone cistern. The
process is simply marvellous. Nobody cares
especially TO see her, but it would GER
tainly be curious TO know how she does
1t. After the dip she returns to dry cloth
ing by reversing. presumably. the initial
process, and then goes about her affairs
as if nothing extraordinary had occurred
as is true. for these islands. Her modesty
IN other respects is as marked and natural.
1t impresses all observers as instructive,
with nothing affected or coy about it.
She may have much to learn from white
women, but in point of modesty she is in
no sense their inferior.

still prevailing style, however. is the long
robe of sheep or yak skin, which is worn
by both sexes. In addition, some of the
men wear trousers of leather, and the
women a tight-ftting petticoat of the same
material, fitting so close to the person that
they acquire a peculiar mincing gait from
its interference with their walking. The

RAISING.
Some Telling Arguments Involving
the Oyster Stew.

From Captain Bluitt."
After a brief statement by the pastor
concerning the need that the church should
be relieved speedily from the burden of in
debtedness, Elder Brown. principal of the
public school, asked for suggestions re-
speeding the best way of accomplishing
the object.
One of the ladies proposed an oyster sup
per; another thought the community might
be willing to endure one more fair for the
sale of useful and fancy articles; and still
another urged that a concert with home
and foreign talent" would be a sure mon
ey-maker. Trustee wilkins inclined to a
magic-lantern show, will some comic pic
lures; say views of the Holy Land for the
main attraction, and then a bit of fun
or interspersed with the views.
Puella Blultt spoke about the beauty and
usefulness of self-denial and
that everybody should go without butter
and caramels for two months and put the
money equivalent of these articles into
mite boxes.
When these and other plans for obtaining
money had been offered and urged. Davis
COOK, the plumber, and the librarian Of the
Sunday school, rose for the purpose of
making a few observations.

passed without a dissenting vote. Dur

trations and deaths would have been large but for the low percentage of hu- midty. The intense heat extended all over the state. At different points the maximum temperature was as follows: Kansas City, l04; Chillicothe, no; Bow ling Green, 112; Paris, 10S; Monroe City, 107; Springfield. 100.
 Norman J. Coleman, former secretary of agriculture, who had been receiving for the last week full reports on the hay crop from al lthe agricultural domains of Missouri and Kansas says that this is the most disastrous drouth that has visit ed the country for generation.
 "The conditions right now are much moro dangerous than they were week ago." said Mir Coleman. The failure of the great pastures of the state to feed the stock dependent upon them for life Mutton has suffered in the same way has made the beef unfit TOT the market These products are poor and thin and must be disposed of at a loss to the farm CT. Many farmers are needing the ad- vice to plant turnips, grass, barley and even wheat. Of course the success of the experiment depends on the promised rain. There is now no relief for the pasture grass that was planted early iD the sea- son. This has been destroyed Nothing remains but to make an attempt to stem the disaster by sowing a second supply of feed for the stock.''
 Farmers in Missouri are feeding wheat to their stock in some of the most parch- ed sections of the state. They say that they have found this cheaper than resort ing to the supply of oats in thd present extremity.
 Large stock owners in Missouri have been shipping their horses and cattle acfoss the river into parts of Illinois which have escaped the worst of the heat.

Campers, who came in prairie schooners' by the thousands, generally brought with them provisions sufficient only to last from five to ten days.

ELLIS GLENN MYSTERY.
Photograph Is Found Which May Prove
 Valuable to Defendant.

Parkersburg, W. Va, July 21 = The mystery known as Ellis Glenn seems now In fair way to be cleared up. Today counsel for the defense received a letter from Marietta containing a photograph of Ebert Glenn taken in that city in 1896, with a sworn statement that the picture was taken there and that Ebert Glenn was a man. A comparison of the two photographs shows the greatest differ ence in the two people and strengthens the statement made a few days ago that Ebert Glenn was here in the courtroom and could be produced at any moment. The photograph shows a broad-shoul dered, black-haired, black-eyed man with long neck and large Adams apple. His hair is coarse and hangs over his forehead on one side. He has long nose , and large ears and does not resemble the defendant in the least.
 The production of the picture has cre- ated quite a sensation here. and the friends of the defendant are jubilant.

Ambush of the Officers by MoonShiners Caused h.

Nashville, Tenn. July 2t.-Reports from Monterey, Tenn, today, near which place the internal revenue raiding party was ambushed by 'moonshiners'' Satur- day morning, say excitement in that dis trict Is at high pitch The natives seem to have generally sided with the moon sinners and Collector Bell deemed 1t ad- visable to carry his posse to Cookeville to await the endorsements which leave here tomorrow morning. Every deputy collector and deputy marshal in the dis trict has been summoned to join In the raid which is contemplated. The moon sinners have boasted they would not be taken alive. and as they are well armed and fortified in the mountains, a serious conflict is expected.
 Collector Bell reports that one of the of wounds received in Saturdays fight, and that another. Will Hall. had his leg amputated as result of a wound re- ceived in the same affray.
 Thomas Prince, the wounded deputy marshal, has been taken to his home in Sparta, while Corder Mackey the wound- ed posseman, is at Cookeville, and Is re- ported to be in critical condition.
 United States Marshal John Overal of the Middle district Of Tennessee, will head the reinforcement party leaving here to- morrow.
