Rest for Working Women.

Since Princess Charles of Denmark
expressed her practical sympathy
with Mr.. Holmes scheme for a home
of rest for London's working women,
the scheme has advanced rapidly to-
ward realization. Thomas Holmes is
the North London police court mis-
sionary, whose recent book. Pictures
and Problems from Lonion's Police
Courts" has attracted so much atten-
ton. He tells this story OF the incep-
tion and progress Of his scheme:
For long time" he said. "per-
haps a dozen years, l have wanted to
do some such thing for these poor
people-the women who made ladies'
skirts, blouses and other garments in
their own homes. They are far more
helpless than those who work in fac
tories; they cannot organize, and
people outside know but little about
them.
Il could take you to see women who
work Is hours day, sometimes more,
fUr seven days a week, STOPPING all
the time over their machines. in a
foul atmosphere. For this a woman
will get perhaps Is. Cd. for sewing a
dozen skirts, and have to find her own
machine and thread. Sometimes the
pay is as low as 10d. a dozen

Duties of a Woman Colonel.

The southern girl, Miss Mamie Ger
trude Morris, who has been appointed
colonel Of the military staff of Gov.
Allen d. Chandler Of Georgia, finds
her position most enviable one,
Her duties thus far have been chiefly
confined to reviewing regiments, at
tending public functions and making
speeches, and she is everywhere
hailed with enthusiasm by the regi-
ments. Colonel Morris, who is a resi-
dent Of Chattanooga, Tenn, but ma
tive of Georgia, received the honor
that has been conferred upon her in
recognition of services rendered in
entertaining Gov. Gambler, and his
staff on the occasion of their visit to
Chattanooga for the dedication of the
Georgia monument in Chickamauga
park. She is said to appear to utmost
advantage in her uniform with sword
and other regalia.

Brims for Summer Hats.

For the summer a taste for very
wide brims has been revived, but
more as the Exception than the rule.
Several of the wide-brimmea hats
are signed earlier. They are trimmed
low, generally with a wreath Of
flowers running right around. and
have very low crowns. One in fancy

of large white poppies, slightly shot

sixth, in rose-pink straw. has two
large roSettes of pink tulle on the

NEW METHOD OF TRANSPORTATION.
Will the Pipe Line Be Used for Other Pur-
poses Than Oil Distribution?

VIII the Pipe Line Be Used for Other Pur-
poses Than Oil Distribution?
One of the developments of the COM
ing century, worthy of at least passing
thought, is the extent to which pneu-
matte tube principle will be employed
to expedite transportation which Is
now entirely dependent on steam loco
motives.
For example, the long lines of load
ed coal cars go from the mines to
the seaboard, and come back empty
to the mines. If the weight of car
is 25 percent of the gross load, there
is in this instance more than SO per-
cent loss or non-paying freight, the
empty train requiring about as much
power to haul it up into the interior as
was expended in taking it to the ship
ping port.
1t does not seem altogether unrea-
sonable, therefore, to think that just
as the miles Of tank cars loaded with
oil, which were seen in former years,
have disappeared, and that commodity
is now sent hundreds of miles through
pipe lines, go may coal, grain, an
ore be sent speeding through tubes to
central depots for local distribution.
In the matter of coal transportation,
in fact, just such pipe line convent
ence was tried experimentally some
thing like 10 to II years ago by the
late w. C. Andrews of New York, the
coal for that purpose being ground
into powder, mixed with water in suffl.
ciently large proportion, and carried
through the pipes in semi-liquid form.
At the delivery end of the pipe line
there were to be settling chambers for
the mixture, enabling the water to be
drained off and u e coal paste, IL we
may so term it, to be pressed into
cakes and driel for consumption.
The project, however, did not extend
beyond a brief experimental career.

Scotland and team made up Of the

the Davies team made only one point.

Mr.. Turner's Assignment.

BY complying with the wishes of
friends in Agra, the Independent is
one week late with an item that gives
US much pain to chronicle-the finan-
cial downfall of Hon. @. Fl. Turner,
the life and backbone of our thriving
little city on the north. In this very
unfortunate affair one of the best
men in the county goes down while
attempting to uphold an entire village
and help his farmer friends in buck
ing a wing of the grain trust. Mr..
Turner has always put in two ticks
for Agra to half kick for himself,
and now it will probably turn out
that those most benefited by his I'M
selfish efforts, will give him the hard
est kicks when he is down. In this
affair Agra will be a big loser and one
of the best men in the county will
pay the penalty. We understand that
Mr.. Turner has property enough to
square him with all creditors. We
hope the citizens of Agra and the
members of the shipping association
flor whom Mr.. Turner has made many
dol1ars) will not forget their plain
duty.-Kirwin Independent.
The HERALD concurs with every
word of the above opinion of Mr..
Turner. He is man who not only
fought on the side of the people poll
tically, but in business way as well
He put into practice whathe believed.
And now if the people for whom he
has labored stand idly by and permit
the trusts and corporations to crush
him, we shall lose faith in human ma
especially human nature round
about Agra. This unfortunate occur
renee ought to convince every man
who is not already convinced, that
the trusts are ruthless-that they
viii numerically destroy any business
man who dares to try to befriend the
people.
