SHE GOT THE PASS.
Not Because the Road Was Indebted

Chicago Post

 You may have heard the story of how Commodore Vanderbilt issued pass to candid man." said the general passen- ger agent of a Western Road, as he ftn- gered gingerly daintily tinted piece of paper.
 that of the Commodore. This note is from student at one of our high toned young womens seminaries, one of whom had no knowledge before the receipt thereof. It was written just before the summer vacation began and while prep arations were going on in the seminary for the closing events. It asks me II will not be kind enough to furnish the writer with transportation to her home
 in Kansas. The latter is nicely worded There is nothing bold or unladylike about It, but it's receipt puzzled me consider ably: I could not recall ths name as that o any one of my friends O. acqualnt- ances and could not conceive of any req son why such request should be made. Just to satisfy myself l dictated note to the writer, asking her to call and see me in reference to the matter, and in the course of a day or two 1 had a viSit from the young woman in person. She was fine, handsome young woman The term buXom would hardly apply to her. She was altogether too cultured and re- fined for that Her whole appearance in dicated that she was not one to whom tho financial consideration involved would appeal very strongly. The moment 1 saw her kllNW Sllt Cuulh llOl DG dpplN ing on the strength of any previous ac- quaintance. l had never seen her be- fore.
 You desire pass to - I said to her by way of introducing the subject.
 Yes she replied. I would consider it a favor if you will be kind enough 10 furnish me one.
 On what grounds; might I ask. is are in the habit of treating these matters as purely business transactions. Have you any business reason to advance as the basis ot your request?
 Well no. I do not think I ever thought of the matter in that light. In- deed. l do not think I should have ever thought of applying for pass had not several of my classmates been provided with them, and l did not see any reason why, when they had them, I should not have one, too. Their parents are as rich as mine, and ] could See no reason why they should ride free and l pay l want ed to be on an equal footing with them :" Do you know on what grounds they received their passes?'
 O. the father of one Is q railroad di- rector. He got his daughter her pass, Another is the daughter of a large mdnu- facturer who ships train loads of goods over the road. Another Is the daughter of Q general superintendent, She trdV- els free
 %. his money is in other kinds of in- Vestments, He is not a railroad man " Well. you see, your case is differrnt from any of those you have mentioned ." Yes. l know it is but I want to do away with al least some ot the difference. do not want to pay when they can ride free.
 You should hardly think it reason able to ask for free transportation for the whole school Nou attend would you" "'I never thought of the reasonable ness. All I thought of was that unless I could get a pass I would have to pay. while some other girls could ride free

Yale's s75,ooo Football Season.

New York World.
 Hal0'1 gate receipts for the foot ball season will reach the handsome total of about S75,00G The game with Harvard alone, which had 40, 900 spectators. added S55,0OO to the football earnings of Old Eli's sons. The game with Princeton was worth sl5,000 to them. From the eleven other games they netted s25.OO0. So that the average gross earnings of a first class college football team is about $5,SOO per game
 This is a fact that bears witness to the great and all-the-tme- growing fondness of the American people for clean and skilIful athletic sports. It also suggests that if the expenses of training the team are kept within modest limits, the foot ball earnings of a crack team will be- fore long be of themselves a consider able endowment fund for a college. YaIe's S75000 from gate receipts is the equivalent of per cent per annum on $1, ,S75, ,O0O which is a larger endowment fund than is enjoyed by many of our best-known colleges, including Amherst, Bowdoin. Princeton and Williams Col ieges wholly or mainly supported by the prowess of their athletes may be among the educational developments of the near future

AN EXCHANGE.
British Wire for the Pacific Cable and an American Bridge for Africa.


 Portland Oregonan,
 We trust our American wire men will utter tremendous howl about the loss or the contract for the trans-Pacific ca pc The American firm that is to lay the cable has let the contract for the rope itself to an English concern. When- ever such contract in Europe is let to American bidders. the welkkin rings with european protests Let us not be behind feet ~ We take it that our American spirit of fair play will assert itself at this trying Juncture as at others. We tax German sugar ? cents pound at our ports, but any tax Germany lays on our meat Is unju5tifiable. We sock 1t to French wines and gloves, but tariffs on our hour going into France can only be execrated Russia may levy indirect sugar bounties at her peril. but as for her selling anything here. there is the Dingley bill. We have Manila and flee.s Asia, but if Japan would sell us any tea or silk or mating. there are high duties. A Chinaman may not enter here on peril ot Imprisonment or massacre. but the Pei Ho shall run blood before the hair of an American interloper in China shall be harmed.
 The same wire that tells that the Eng fish are to build an American cable also gives news of a million-dollar bridg2 con- tract in British Africa going to an Amer ican firm. It Is well. Each transaction is for our good as well as for Britain's good. We shall get the cable sooner than the American builders could have made it, and the American bridges will be ready earlier, and perhaps be better into the bargain, than the British could have delivered them. There are those, alas, who still fancy that we are out and in- jured by the cable award. and that the Africans who buy our bridges are the hapless victims of our superior prowess, to be pitied. perhaps. but ceEtainly con temned. So also there are minds of equal acumen that still see in the earth a flat surface and in the moon a hunk of green cheese.

A Discolored Skin.
HINTS ON ETIQUETTE.
iRy Ann Somers.


 Dear Mrs. Somers:-Will you kindly tell me if I am expected to call on my host ess after a reception; If so, how soon Also. do I leave a card when returning first call. .s.. hFo"i'ie'
 You sho i'd call upon your hostess as early as you can conveniently do so &f- ter the reception. Usually upon calling, the card is sent up to the hostess by the attendant at the door. If the lady is not at home, the card is left with the at tendant. When making an At Home call however. the card is left upon the tray on the table in the hallway when leaving the house.
 Dear Madam:-Will you kindly answer the following questions: What are the latest and most proper ways of introduce to meet you" what should be the reply and to whom should it be said?
 Inquirer.
 In polite society, when a gentleman is introduced to d lady, the person making the introduction usually asks permission of the latter to introduce the former, then says, Mrs. A, allow me to present to you MT. B." A gentleman always rises when being introduced to lady; 1t is not GUS tomary for him to shake hands with her. The lady need not rise, unless she
 
 should also shake hands with any one who is introduced to her and say a little word of welcome. It is not customary to say Pleased to meet you," unless the parties introduced have some knowledge of each other through personal friends and an introduction has been looked for ward to: then the reply to this saluta- tion Is. usually. T am sure the pleasure is mutual" Ordinarily, however. the names of persons introduced are simply repeated with d smile and a bow of rec ogntiOn.
 Dear Mrs. Somers:--I am a young wo- man yet in my teens, who wishes to give some little entertainment to a few frieSds to whom I owe social obligations. l have not room enough at home to give a par ty, so thought of getting up a matinee party. Will you kindly tell me through the columns of The Advertiser if this would be proper, with a little luncheon afterward? Should have chaperon? Gertrude. A matinee party would We a very de- lightful way of reciprocating the atten- tions you have received. Light refresh- ments would also he an agreeable addl- ton to the afternoons pleasure By all ] means have a chaperon.

SAVINGS BANK INTEREST.
Semi Annual Limit in Vermont Plac-
 ed at 13l Per Cent.

Burlington (Vt) Free Press.
 When the Vermont Legislature in 1900 passed an act providing that the Trus- tees of savings banks and savings insti- tutions in this State should regulate the rate of interest or divide nds, not to eX ceed l 3-4 per cent. semi-annually upon the deposits herewith, it anticipated a course of action which has now to all appearances forced itself upon the saw ings institutions of the Empire State
 While some of the stronger Vermont in- stitutions, like the Burlington Savings Bank. could easily pay per cent. semi annually some of the weaker savings banks experienced great difficulty Tn keeping up that rate. owing to the larger percentage of cost of doing business, practically the same machinery being nec- essary for the carrying on, of a small business as larger one. 1id ''
 Some of the smaller institutions did not feel like reducing their rate of interest or dividend, for they realized that If they adopted a smaller rate while the stronger institutions continued to pay at least 4 per cent. depositors would be inclined to withdraw their savings and place the same where larger rate could be secured. In this emergency an appeal was made to the Legislature, to establish a uniform rate above which no savings institution could go in the regulating ot interest or dividends, and the act in ques- ton was the result.

EXPLOSIVE WATER

Italian Officer Discovers Power Fifty @ five Times Stronger Than Gunpowder.
Chicacn Trih1lne-

Chicago Tribune.
 To those persuasive and friendly men who meet strangers at Chicago stations and escort them to see where occurred d the explosion on the lake front 1t may seem impossible that any surprise should be sprung in the course of so old and well-known a game.
 The surprise of a lifetime is in store for that one of them, however, wAo endeaV- ors to play 1t on Colonel Cornara or the Italian artillery when he comes to this city. Colonel Corndrd, after years or eN- perimenting, has just succeeded in find
 ing a method for making water explode with tifty-hve times the force of gun powder, or twenty-eight times that or dynamite. If he arrives at the lake shore and finds the explosion nor forthcoming he is apt to produce a concussion lmme- diately that will aStonish more than the confidence man. Lake Michigan is more fresh water than the Colonel has ever seen at once. IS yet. and the sight may tempt him to extremes.
 His invention of explosive water Is based on the well-known principle that water is decompOsed into hydrogen and oxygen by electricity, He has found l means to make this decomposition sud- den and violent while the water Is con fined in air-tight steel shells, with the result that the Italian army Is eXperl- mcnting with water as a sort of smoke less powder for service rifles and pro- jeCtiles.
