no cessation of hostilities. The dele

locked for cleaning. a.
T7s. A member of the party tells this
strange story: " 5l - ..,
"On leaving Mudania, on the south
shore of the sea- of Marmora, few
days back the yacht stopped outside
the harbor to leave the pilot, when
those on board saw human being
swimming toward the boat from the
land, but so far out that it seemed in
credible that any one could be capable
of such endurance. "..r...
The yacht waited and soon the pas
sengers were able to perceive that the
swimmer was a native girl, who was
followed by dog. A boat was launched
and picked up the girl and dog, both
utterly exhausted.
''The girl explained through the pi-
lot, who alone understood her lam
guage, that she had escaped from the
hasem of a resident of Broussa and that
the iaithful canine had followed her.
The yacht then proceeded, taking along
the girl. Her name is Leyia. She is
about II years old and seems bright"

The duchess of Sutherland has writ

girls and women. The talented young
peeress was drawn into print by a LETT
ter distinguishing between boys and
girls books. M

per from the age Of six. still dis
trust the future Of the little girl who
prefers the sentimental 'Bessie's Red
Sash to the hairbreadth escape of
Tom Hdler's Leap The mother of
males, in her purchase, would do well
to avoid the volume, however bright
its boards, that bears the subtitle of
"a Tale for Girls
ssMy own opinion is that woman,
though she never rides to the hounds
or handles a gun, If she be not at
heart a sportsman stunts sympathies
and loses half the JOY of life. The bat
tie, after all, is not only to the strong,
and the sooner we discour our girls
from adopting convent ional kinks ii IS t to
warp their opinion, and help them to
lbe true to themselves and to what they
really care for, the better"
On the other hand, Mrs. Alec Twee-
| die, the well-known writer, deplores
the masculine tendency in the modern
girl. In the course of a long article
in the Daily Mail Mrs. Tweedie de-
clares too much exercise is responsible
to a great extent for the "lanky-
Weedy girls SO often seen in England. !"
American women, Mrs. Tweedie says,
take much less exercise than British
ers, and the overgrown girl is not so
often seen in America as in England.
Hockey, Mrs. Tweedie characterizes
as much too rough for girls. Is it not
better" she asks, 'sto make home
and its inmates comfortable than to
win a tennis cup?" 3S

The boy pounded and pounded on

explosion, followed q few minutes
later by the fire whistle. The Duluth,
Missabe & Northern railway station
was totally destroyed by the explosion
of nitroglycerin placed in holes bored
into the safe.
The burglars evidently used ten
times as much dynamite as was necs-
sary, for the building was completely
destroyed and the safe torn to bits.
Just before the explosion, two men
were seen running away from the
building, but no trace Of them has
been found so far. The debris caught
fire after the explosion, but was soon
put out by the department..
E At 10 o'clock at night the city jail
was partly destroyed by fire, and one
prisoner was burned to death, being
locked in the jail, a frame building
He was Finnish miner, and was in

FIGHT OVER CORN.
John w. Gates Leads Big Bull Move
ment on Chicago Exchange.

CHICAGO. June 1S.-Millions OF dol
lars are involved in deal in July corn
which has become the ground for fierce
struggle between two big factions in
the speculative world. Behind the bull
campaign in the July holdings, which
has resulted in a sharp advance in the
price of that commodity on the local
exchange in the last few days, is a crowd
of Wall Street spectators, whose wealth
is said TO aggregate millions.
Opposing the efforts OF the New York
crowd to corner the market are the
local elevator interests which also have
big financial interests behind them. The
bull party represented in the pit by
Harris. Gates & Co. had the best end Of
the deal They have succeeded in boost
ing the price OF July corn up several
cents. They have forced most Of the
smaller shorts to cover. but the big
shorts. and they are supposed to be the
elevator people, are still holding out.
The opening ia July corn today ranged
from 5sc to 69c, and trade for the first
few minutes was wild. Harris, Gates G.
Co.. however, sold out large quantities
of long corn on the advance. and the
price gradually fel! off to 65Hc. July
corn late in the seSsion sold at 652sc and
closed at IS lac, loss for the day Of &c.

Rats and Commerce.

In France, more than anywhere else,
the science of economy is carried almost
to n fine art. The common sewer rats
of Paris are raised to clean the flesh
from bones that are to be used in manu-
factures, but that must not be boiled to
clean them. When full-grown rats are
killed their furs are used for fur trim
mings, their skins for gloves their thigh
bones for the highest grade Of ivory"
toothpicks; their tendons and bones are
cooked down to make those beautiful
gelatine capsules which our physicians
often give us medicine in and their
teeth are used for tipping fine burnish-
ers for bookbinders use.-Popular Me
