1t is said by a correspondent OF the
London Telegraph that the habits Of
the Turkish ladies in Constantinople
are wonderfully fastidious. When
they wash their hands at a tap from
which water runs into a marble basin,
they let the water run till a servant
shuts it of, as to do this themselves
would make them unclean. They can
not open or shut a door, as the handle
would be unclesn. One Of these fas-
tidious ladies' was talking to a small
niece the other day, who had just re-
ceived a present Of a doll from Paris.
By and by the child laid the doll on
the .lady's lap. She was Mortified, and
ordered the child to take it away. AS
the little girl would not move it, and
no servant was near and the lady
would be defled by touching a doll
hat had been brought from abroad,
the only thing she could think of was
to jump up and let the doll fall. 1t
broke in pieces. The same lady will
not open a letter coming by post, but
a servant opens it and holds 1t near
for her to read. If her handkerchief
falls to the ground it is Immediately
destroyed or given away, so that she
may not again use it. Among the men
this curious state of things does not
exist.-Youth's Companion.

TOO MUCH LEGALISM.

An English jurist, commenting on
the Buffalo tragedy says:
This ought to give America the
chance to shake off the incubus of too
much legalism, and by legalism | mean
straining the law to defeat it's own
purpose.
In criminal trials it seems to be the
matt object of the American courts to
discover a jury who will liberate the
prisoner nor carry out the law.
Absurd questions are asked
whether the veniremen or jurymen
have read about the case; whether
such reading has led to the formation
of opinion on the merits of the case SC
as to prejudice the verdict; whether
they are acquainted with the prisoner
or victim.
This absurd ~straining for loop
holes. which the courts appear to en-
courage. is in my opinion the first steT
toward anarchy.
In this connection it is reported
that a famous criminal lawyer of New
York. who left London on a sudden
call or Saturday, has been summoned
to Buffalo to defend Czolgosz. This
does not indicate that the murderer is
absolutely friendless, but on the con
trary that he is merely the tool of ar
organization with funds behind It,"

madness. Yet it is a madness with
a method. and that method is assassin
alton. In the last fifty years this fear
full lesson has been impressed with
startling frequency.
Anarchism is plainly a league of as
sassins. 1t would be a league of ut
ter folly without its pistols and dag
gers. 1t would be despised and forgot
ton but for its bleeding victims, griev-
ing widows and nations in mourning.
If bands of %brigands are organized
they are hunted down. The bands of
assassins formed rave been INDUCED
because they call themselves anarch-
lists and claim the rights of free speech
and free press, even though the evil
lent object is to soad the iend II half
witted into the murder of high Off
Gals. Civilization has been tardy and
weak in dealing with these demons.
They should be deprived of a citizen
ship they %denounce and denied a
place in the communities they seek TO
plunge into chaos. When the fact is
distinctly grasped that every anarchist
is All assassin in his tendencies and
propaganda the %hardpan of truth in his
case will be reached and the remedy
applied will be adequate. Punishment
and exclusion are the only effective
resources. The disease must be {

oEvsERs PErERlNc OUT
Gsoiorist SAYS Present Generations May
Zee Last of Them.

SeoiOgist SAYS Present SenerattOns may
see Last of Them.
According to some of the members
Of the American Association for the
Advancement of Science, says the Den
yer Republican, the geysers of Yellow
stone Park will some day disappear.
Some of the scientists insist hat the
decline of the eyser is so rapid that
the present generation will see the
last of them. Edwin Hinckley Barbour
of Lincoln, Neb., professor of geology
OF the University of Nebraska and act
ing state geologist since 1891. has some
radical views on the subject, MI. Bar
bour is an author and is in charge
annually OF the Worrill geological and
photographic surveys. In a letter he
says: THE rapid decline of the geyser
phenomena in the Yellowstone Nation
al Park seems to be but little undel-
stood. but to those who will visit the
spot frequently, the changes seem
startling. and to the geologist alarm
ingly rapid. If n may judge from i'm
pressions, 1t seems safe to assume that
II the decline in geyser activity noted
during the past four years should con-
tinue for the coming eight or ten years.,
the features which most impress the
geologist will have disappeared. AS a
warning every geologist who intends
visiting the park should not postpone
the trip a year, but should visit it at
once. 1t may be stated generally that
this decline of activity is manifest in
the geysers, the mud geysers and paint
pots, pools and steam vents, many Of
which have become wholly or partly
extinct in the last four years. AS spe-
cific cases it may be stated that at the
mammoth hot springs the activity
seems not one-tenth that of former
times. Minerva terrace having become
extinct (since 1885, the discharge from
Pulpit and Jupiter terraces have great
ly declined during the same time, and
the Narrow Gauge-a assure vent-and
other attractions becoming all but ex-
tinct. Roaring Mountain is now silent
though steaming. In the Norris Geyser
basin the Black Growler is less active.
In the Lamer basin the splendid Fount-
ain geyser is extinct. with a feeble SUBJ
stitute near by named the Dewey. The
Giant Paint Pots are greatly contracted
in size, the pink half being extinct in
the upper basin. Some Of the better
known as well as many of the lesser
geysers, are extinct, or supposed to be.
Among these are the Splendid geyser
and the Bee Hive. The Grand geyser,
which used to play daily. now erupts
irregularly about three times a sea
son. The Cascade, which erupted about
every quarter of In hour in 1895, now
plays once a day. The unmistakable
impression of frequenters Of the park
is that the changes are serious and
much more rapid than is generally be-
lieved.'

DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and
perseverance in its use will work won-
ders for the most hopeless If
Mrs. Newton, whose letter is given
below, had not persisted in its use, she
might never have known the happiness
Of perfect health. Perhaps the reason
for her persistence was because she used
"Favorite Prescription as a ulast re-
sort" Physicians had failed. If'Favor-
lite Prescription" could not help there
was nothing to hope for. 1t did help. 1t
always helps and almost always cures.
1t establishes regularity, dries weaken
ing drains, heals inflammation and ulcer
alton and cures female weakness. It
imparts strength and elasticity to the
organs of maternity and makes the
baby's advent practically painless.

Mr.. John A. Blue, a farmer three
miles east Of Flora, Ind, is a patron
Of the Flora and Bringhurst Telephone
company. Six months 6 he had a
telephone placed in his residence, but
to this day he has never been able to
ring central. The ltneman has tested
the telephone and found it all right;
members Of the family or any n else
except Mr.. Blue could ring in and get
a response, but when Mr.. Blue took
hold of the crank and gave it a turn
the other end Of the line was as dead
as the %pIoverbial door nail. Various
tests have been made to prove that
this condition really exists.

THE LOSS is U

university that SO many of the states

are unable to answer it's question. but
1t is very evident that something must
be wrong or more would attend. Out

attend college this year, but one is at.
tending the state university,-Buffalo
Bulletin.
So far as The Republican is able to
learn, Johnson county has never pat,
ronized the state university to any
great extent. In after years the boys
and girls who are now going east from
Johnson county will regret that they
have not affiliated with the boys and
girls of this state. They are losing
that which money cannot buy, the
priceless boon of the friendship and
society of the people of their own
state.

Ora Amuses Turkish Ladies'.

The ~gramophone is a great source Of
pleasure to Turkish ladies. For some
years it was strictly forbidden; now
nearly every house is provided with
one, and the ladies sit around and roar
with laughter every night at its pro-
auctions. Nearly all are fitted with
cylinders giving Turkish songs and
stories. If the ladies w..h their
gramophones would only stop at home
no one would object; but what they
delight in is to get into a boat with
their friends and loaf slowly down the
Bosporus, with the gramophone
shrieking in the middle. The Bos-
porus on a moonlight night Il the most
romantic place imaginable. Sitting on
a balcony overhanging the water, with
no sounds but the soft %lappinig CO the
waves and the unceasing songs Of the
nightingales which swarm all alon g
the shore one gets lost in all sorts of
}nlaginations. and it is too bad when
a boat suddenly drifts close by with a
gramophone sq%ueaking out Daisy" or
something equally incongruous.

NEW WEAVING CONTINUANCE.
Its Mechanism Is Simple and Its Speed
Wonderful,

Wonderful.
A young weaver named Bernard
Crossley, Of Barnley, Lancashire, Eng
land. has invented a little device which
can be attached to existing looms
which will enable one weaver to at
tend to eight looms, and as it also
AVOIDS stoppages its use, it is claimed.
will result in the production of 1914
per cent more cloth in the same time.
1t Is small and can be attached at a
comparatively trifiing cost to the pres
ent box looms. Its mechanism is SIM
pie II its speed tremendous, effecting
shuttle changes with great rapidity.
If a loom is working at the average
rate of $50 picks a minute the device
without any pause changes the shuttle
in one four-hundredths part of a min
ute-half a revolution of the urst shaft.
The weaving is very even, there are no
thick and thin places in the cloth due
to the insertion of too much or too lit
tie welt. In fact, it is said it pro-
duces a far better cloth than that WOW
en- on the present loom. AS a conse-
quence of its great merits, 1t Ia under
stood. that it has been acquired by a
wealthy syndicate that proposes at
taching it to the looms of a number of
the Lancashire mills at once.

"a long white scream Of Joy" We
used the phrase yesterday to describe
a trainful of children of for a day in
the country. And a correspondent pro-
tests. "A scream can be long, but
how can it be white?" he asks. He
rather misses the point. But he also
forgets the close association Of sound
and other. A blind boy once. when
asked his idea of red, replied that it
was like a trumpet, and really you
can get no nearer to a definition Of a
primary color than by reference to
another sense. Besides, every one
knows that q hue is always associated
with a cry!-London Chronicle.
