"Anarchlst Queen Arrested.

ma Goldman, tho Anarchist queen.
under whose red banner Leon
Czolgocz claims he stands, whose
wo, ds he claims fired his heart
and his brain to attempt the as
sassination of the President, was
arrested hero shortly before noon
today.
She discIaimed all but the slight
est acquaintance with the Presl-
dents assailant; she denied abso-
lutely that she or any Anarchists
she knew were implicated in any
plot to kill the President. She
said she believed Czolgocz acted
entirely on his own responsibility,
and that he never claimed to have
been Inspired by her, as he is
quoted as affirming.
The President, she averred,
with yawn, was an insignificant
being to her, a mere human atom, ,
whose life or death were matter s
of supreme indifference to her or
to any Anarchist. Czolgocz's act
was foolish, yet she declared it
probably had its inspiration in
the misery which tho Psle had
seen about him. Violence, she
said, was not tenet in the faith
of the Anarchist, and she had not
advocated it in Cleveland, whore
Czolgocz had said he heard her,
nor elsewhere.

HOW TO BE HAPPY. :"

A young man recently wrote to the
editor of the Ladies Home Journal ask
ing: "What have you to say, squarely
and fairly, to a young man of 30 who is
about to marry?" Mr.. Box uses page
for his answer.
It's salient points are these: That a
man should make the woman of his
choice his chum, as well as his wife;
that he should show her the highest
consideration as we'll as loYe her: that
he should remember that he owes his
wife to her mother, and treat his
mother-in-law with respect, at least
that he should keep his wife informed
as to his income; that he should give
her regular allowance, and that he
should have his life insured in her
favor. And, above all, that when a
young man marries he must remember
that he leaves a world of self and
enters into world of another and self.

JUST WHY LOOP WAS MADE.

There have been four explanations
of Schley's famous loop at the San
tlago fight, offered from time to time.
The first was that he was afraid his
ship would be rammed, and that, fol-
lowing the departments orders against
unnecessarily risking any ship, he made
the turn. Then it was claimed that the
loop was tactical movement of the
greatest Importance and contributed
materially to the success of the engage
ment. The third theory was that the
loop was made for the purpose of
throwing the weight of the fight upon
the battleships and leaving the Brook
Ign, with her superior speed, to take
care of any ship of the enemy that
might try to turn tail and run away.
The fourth version is that Schley was
not responsible for the loop at all, but
that it was ordered by Captain Cook.
There has been no indication in the
court of inquiry as to which of these
versions, If either, the attorneys for the
Admiral will adhere to. That WILL
probably be developed when the Schley
witnesses take the stand. - Savannah

Mr.. Alfred G. Vanderbilt, the heir
of his father, is farmer His farm is
in Rhode Island, hence,as may be well
understood, it is not very large one.
Still it IS farm, and Mr.. Vanderbilt
has recently been making some notable
changes upon it. Chief among them,
he has plowed up and rolled the vege-
table garden and turned 1t into ten
mis- court. Another part of the farm
has been made into private golf links,
and still another into a polo field. And
that accounts for pretty nearly all of
the land. The vegetables, eggs, grain,
etc, that will be needed on the farm,
will, Of course, be available in New
York city.

1t IS encouraging to observe the
changed tone of the yellow journals
since the death of Mckinley. They
seem to have come to realizing sense
of their duty to the public and no long
or pursue a fagitious course. Public
men, likewise, have assumed a more
moderate tone and no longer talk in
the language of anarchy. This is as IT
should be. Violent publications and
also violent speeches have done their
worst Political discussion will hence
forward be moved to and maintained
on higher plane. righteousness will
not be accepted as authority nor black
guardism as wisdom. Political discus
sion will be caImer and more rational.
InYective will be less dealt in. Patr1-
otIsm will rise above partisanism and

One of the revelations brought out in
the present naval inquiry at Washing
ton is that tampering in official docu-
ments seems to be quite common as a
part of naval ethics ''for the honor of
the service" Commenting on the
naval management behind doors, the
Chicago Chronicle says: cit is well
that ray of daylight should occasion
ally flash into these extraordinary
methods of attempting to keep facts
from the public that no alleged stain
may rest upon any naval officer. Amid
all the miserable jealousies that are
cropping out as the Schley inquiry pro-
crosses there runs a uniform note of
distrust of publicity. Some day these
naval officials will be made to realize
that the American navy is branch of
the public service, and that the acts of
all it's officers are amenabIe to strict
scrutiny when occasion arises"

An English music teacher has come
forward with this statement: "When
all the world has learned to sing there
will no longer be room in the human
breast for rage or terror or murder or
anarchy" This may be true, but when
the world tries to sing and succeeds no
better than many individuals do now,
there will be wholesale murder and
anarchy.

A REAL TALKING MACHINE.
An Invention Which Itself Speaks
 Not Merely Reproduces Speech
london Express

LOnOOn EkpreSS.
 remarkable triumph in mechanical in- ventton has just been achieved by Dr.. Marage, who has succeeded in construct in ga machine that can utter plainly and I distinctly the five vowels-a, e. i. O. u. Although many attempts have been made at this, it is only now that success has been attained and before long we \ may expect to have a machine that can | really talk.
 Of course. the phonograph is not a talk ing naaehfne, because 1t merely gives off a \ record that has already been made upon | cylinder by an actual human voicet. Dr. \ Marage's machine. however, creates the ! vowel sounds at first hand. This machine has been constructed so | as to reproduce the interior of person 2 mouth while pronouncing the different vowels. using the plastic substance em- \ ployed by dentists.
 | These false mouths, as 1t were, are ! made of plaster of Paris, and are fitted
 to sirens giving the appropriate combi- rations of sounds. Dr. Marage then sets
 his machine in operation and the vowels are produced synth stically. pr. Marage puipo3es to modify the
 steam sirens used on shipboard so that different phonetic syllables may be ob- tained which may be used to form an in- ternational alphabet.
 Another important application of this
 synthetic process can be made in the
 construction of ear trumpets that will not
 fatigue the deaf. because they will not
 modify the grouping of oscillation adapt
 cd to the ear. Dr. Marage has also con
 structed the 'acouometer" giving a typ
 ical sound of the vowel "a," for example
 which may be used as a standard to
 which certain other sounds may be re-
 ferred.
 Thus there are far greater possbili-
 ties for this self-talking machine than ap-
 pear from first glance at 1t. Now that it
 IS possible to make exact mechanical re-
 productions of the human mouth with pi. able lips, perfect teeth. and all the won
 derful inner mechanical word producers on a magnified scale on steamships at
 night and in fogs, and many disasters may thereby be averted
 At present Dr. Marage is engaged In
 perfecting his invention and studying tion of which the cheeks play a more or less important part, for in this direction

WoMEN's CHOICES.

THE WATER HYACINTHs.
Plan to Destroy Them in Southern
 Rivers by Burning Petroleum

New Orleans Picayune.
 Sanford R. Moseley of Philadelphia has been taking comprehensive survey or the rivers and large creeks and inlets of Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louis- ana, in the hope of being able by care full study of the habits of the water hyacinth to be able to devise some means for it's destruction.
 This Is one of the most curious things In natural history" said MT. Moseley. "A few years ago 1t was practically un- known and now some of the finest navi- gable streams of the country are threatened with permanent damage and almost total obstruction in some cases by the pest.
 ] "It has been stated. apparently on au- thority, that the water hyacinth was brought to this country by ships from the Mediterranean. and others have theorized that 1t came from South Ameri- ca As a matter of fact, 1t has been known in this country for nearly a cen- tury ,and it is not necessary to account for its presence.
 'Tt is here. and apparently here to stay. I think 1t is destined to bear large part in building up the low-lying marshes along the southeastern coast Of Louisia- ua, and may possibly do some such work at other points, notably in Florida and the southern neck of Alabama, but at the same time 1t Is a serious menace to the navigability of some of our finest streams.
 'T think I have found a remedy that will be simple and sure in the new petro- leum discoveries in Texas and Louisi- ana. l am satisfied that the water hyacinth may be easily destroyed by the application of petroleum and fire-a thin film of oil on the surface of the water may be applied to several acres of water hyacinth with the use of ten barrels of petroleum.
 Each plant is furnished with bulb that acts as a float, and when the oil is set on fire the bulb will be destroyed, causing the plant to sink, and resulting in its destruction. There can be no danger from this except to the smallest and lightest boats and not them if they are occupied. as the oil will only burn for moment at any given point, and then not fiercely enough to ignite pieces of floating wood unless allowed to remain long enough be- fore firing to soak into the parts of the wood. There will be no danger what ever to shipping or to painted boats. un- less indeed they be very freshly painted. in which case the paint itself might ignite.
 q have made a few experiments on a limited scale and they have convinced me that this problem. which appeared serious, Is easy of solution upon a very economical basis"

man never thinks of . man sentimenta1ly until he asks her hand in marriage. Yet tradition assigns her the idiotic role of first appearing surprised. then coyly ad- hitting that although she had never sus- pected such a thing, she finds that she cherishes a deathless passion Tor her suitor. while In reality. long before the man ever dreamed of such . thing. she knew to a hear throb what she thought of him, and had every detail of the wsd- ding settled in her mind.
 Of course. in the old times. when a wne was entirely dependent on her husband, it was manners to wait until you were asked; but now. when there are so many eligible girl bachelors who are able to -revide for husband in the style In which his father has been accustomed to support him, the last practical objection to woman's proposing has been swept away and only the romantic prejudice re- mains.
 would have on the matrimonial situation Is hard to say, but probably the most not able one would be vast increase in we'd dings. Many man marries because he hasn't courage to see a woman cry for him, and few would have the nerve to say "No' to a pretty girl who, showed such superlative taste and judgemnt as admire him above all his fellows.
 Then, women are much more discerning In affairs of the heart than men are, tnd courtship would be most dangerous, be- cause they would be conducted with more subtiety. When a man proposes 10 a woman he never gives thought to time or place or her mood. He simply hurls the question at her. and is surprised 1T nc gets knocked down by the answer.
 A woman knows there is psychologi- cal moment in which you will say 'fes' to anything. If she sets her affection on a man who loves good dinner she will never be fool enough to ask him to be hers in that awful. irascible fifteen minutes before dinner when man hates everybody on earth but the cook. Instead she will walt until soothed and comfort. ed and mellowed by a perfectly appointed meal, she beams at him across table set for two. and then a matrimonial accident policy couldn't save him.
 If she is vain she will not chooose the
 moment of his success, when he feels suf- ficient to himself in which to propose. Instead she will wait until fate deals him a back-handed lick, and then she VIII bind up his hurt self-love in the ointment of her fiattery, and suggest her heart as repository for his troubles
 If he is selfish she will make nerseiI necessary to his comfort. If he loves the sound of his voice she will listen like pat fence on a moment before she speaks. If he is thrifty she will prove to him that two can live cheaper than one. And will any man say Nay nay. Pauline, to such fair proposition? I throw not.
 Fortunately for men, the day or wornen's proposing is still in the far future. Let bachelors return thanks to Heaven for their safety.
