CARE OF THE NAILS.
French Manicures Do Not Use Steel
Cleaners Nor CuticIe Knives.


Cleaners Nor CuticIe Knives.
A young woman who has been
living in Paris for year says that no
French manicure who treated her
hands used a cuticle knife about her
nails or a steel nail cleaner. The
little orange wood sticks sharpened
to broad point were used to push
back the encroaching cuticle, and to
clean the nails after each washing of
the hands. In this way the delicate
enamel of the nail is not injured, and
the under surface of the nail point is
kept smooth. The French manicures.
too. polish more often with a bit of
chamois rather than regular
polisher, and cut the nails with clip
per instead of curved scissors. These
clippers come in pairs, one for cutting
the nails of each hand. Emery
boards or velvet file is recommend
ed for the little filing needed to shape
the nails. Never cut the cuticle
around the nail, but press back lightly
with the orange wood stick. Daily
brief care when the nail is soft from
the use of soap and water is all that
is needed to keep the hands in goou
condition with a weekly manicuring.
Use lemon juice instead on any other

MOURNING PERIOD OVER.
Londoners Making Preparations for a
Lively Social Season.

New York, Jan. 21.-In the course
of a few days the years mourning of
the royal family for the late queen will
be over and the court will resume its
brightest aspect, cables The Tribune's
London representative. West End is
full of preparations for the new order
of things and it is clear from many in
dications that their majesties desire
the London season to be as cheerful as
the conditions will permit. Many fam
lilies are in mourning because of losses
in South Africa and for various rea-
sons it is presumed that Queen Alex

Henry Of Battenberg will continue

The Victoria memorial fund is still

ing out of London have a strong OBJ
lection to subscribe for the erection
of the memorial in the metropolis. In
all probability the precedent which
was set in the case Of the memorial
to the prince consort will be followed
and parliament will be asked to vote
the necessary funds.

MINE WORKERS MEET.
Nearly One Thousand Delegates at the
Annual Convention.

Annual Convention.
Indianapolis, Jan. 21.-Nearly 1000
members of the United Mine Workers
of America have gathered here for the
18th annual convention which began at
10 a. m. in Tomlinson hall. 1t is con-
fidently expected by President Mitch
ell, Secretary Wilson and other Off
Gals that it will be the largest conven-
ton ever held by union laborers. Del
egates are here from "a states, repre-
senting every bituminous and anthra-
cite coal field in the United States.
Ben Tillet, the famous British labor
leader, who is in this country studying
labor conditions, is present. His adj
dress will be one of the features of the
convention. The convention will con-
tinue until Jan. 80, VIII VI he joint con-
Pennsylvania, Illinois and Indiana will
begin. This last conference probably
will last 10 days.
It is understood that these delegates
are preparing to ask for an advance
that will be equivalent to an all-round
increase of at least 10 per cent. Along
with this report, however, is another
to the effect that many of the oper-
ators have determined to take stand
for a reduction of 10 per cent on the
ground that they have had an un-
profitable year and that the prospects
for the coming year are not bright
enough to warrant even continuation
of the present scale. 1t is not believed
though that there will be lockout as

states that sign the competitive

OPPOSES IRRIGATION.
Speech of sibIey of Pennsylvania in
the House.

the HOUSE.
Washington, Jan. 22.-The house,
without preliminary business, went
into committee of the whole and re-
sumed the general debate upon the
urgent deficiency appropriation bill.
Mr.. Sibley (Pa) made general
speech in opposition to the govern
ment entering at this time upon a
scheme for the irrigation of the arid
lands in the West.
Mr.. Sibley said every one who had
witnessed the tests knew the wonder
full productive results of irrigation, but
he believed the whole question was for
another generation. Members repre-
senting an agricultural constituency
should oppose a measure which in
volved the expenditure of untold mil
lions to be taken by taxation from all.
He spoke of the decline in value of
farm lands in Eastern, Middle and
Southern states, yet this was propo-
sition to open up hundreds of millions
Of acres more to be in open competi-
tion with these farms. Let us wait"
said Mr.. Sibley, until our increased
population. shall so expand that these
lands shall be needed to meet the de-
mand for greater food supply"
Mr.. Newlands (Nev.), an earnest ad-
vocate of the irrigation of arid lands,
replied to Mr.. Sibley. He explained
the provisions of the bill which it was
proposed to present to the house to
show that it would not create charge
on the public treasury, but would en-
ploy only the fund raised from the sale
of arid lands for the work of recla-
nation

TO AVOID DISGRACE.
Members of an Indian Family Commit
Suicide.

Members of an Indian Family Commit
Suicide.
Kirby, Mon, Jan. 22.-The Lame
deer tragedy was one of the most Pc
culiar incidents of recent times among
Indians. Family honor and tradition
were involved.
White was a Northern Cheyenne.
Billiard, the man he killed, was an In
dian policeman above the average in
intelligence.
White killed a pony that had been
bitten by wolf. Whites son invited
Billiard to supper, together with Little
Head and Wolfroad. They ate of the
meat and reported to the agency that
it was cow meat. 1t is against that
agency rules for an Indian to kill cat
tie. Billiard refused to be arrested for
shooting his own pony, and in the mix
up Billiard was killed by White.
A family council was then held and
it was decided that to avoid the dis
grace that would follow, the members
of the family should commit suicide.
Whites squaw stabbed herself and
then cut her throat. The elder son
then shot his father, his brother and
himself.
At the funeral the situation assumed
a serious aspect. The Indians held the
agent responsible for all the deaths,
and trouble was averted only by the
wise counsel of a Cheyenne from Ok
lahoma, who was here visiting.

SENATE COMMITTEE HEARS AR.
GuMENTS ON THE ExcLU.

Mr.. GoMPERs A WITNESS
Pending Bill, He Says, Meets the Views
OF Organized Labor and the Interests
OF the Pacific Coast-Representa-
tives of the Asiatic Association and
the Boston Chamber of Commerce
Oppose the Measure.

Washington, Jan. 22.-The senate
committee on immigration gave hear
ing during the day to representatives
of various interests upon the question
of Chinese immigration. Samuel
Gompers, the first speaker, outlined
the efforts which the Federation of La.
Dor had made in connection with the
Pacific coast delegation in congress to
perfect a bill which would secure a
continuance of Chinese exclusion and
this had been accomplished in what is
known as the Mitchell bill.
John Foord of the Asiatic associa-
ton spoke in opposition to the bills
and presented statistics of trade be-
tween China and the United States.
He urged postponement of any &C
ton by congress looking to Chinese
exclusion until the expiration of the
present treaty in 1904. 1--WE are all in
terested in being on good terms with
China" he said, land should treat her
with some degree of consideration
and some decent regard for interna-
tional facts"
Charles B. Hamlin presented reso-
luton of the Boston chamber of COM
merce advocating the Proctor bill con-
tinuing in force the present Chinese
exclusion law until the expiration of
the existing treaty with China in 1904
and urged that no bill be adopted in
consistent with that treaty, because,
he said, 'sthat treaty involves the
honor and faith of the United States
government"

ALARMING BRITISHERS.
Heavy Increase in Imports Of Iron and
Steel.

New York, Jan. 21.-One of the
features of England's foreign trade
that for some time past has been caus-
ing increased concern to the CONNER
cial class is the great increase of i'm
ports of iron and steel relatively to ex-
ports, cables The Tribune's London
correspondent. In the last three years
exports of manufactured iron have
fallen by nearly Goo,000,000, while i'm
ports have mounted from G5,O0O.O0O
in 1899 to G7,300,000 in 1901. This
almost so per cent increase brings the
imports up to nearly one-third of the
value of exports and induces trade
journals to anticipate that in few
years Great Britain will be buying
more iron and steel than she sells.

OFFICIAL INTERPRETATION.
Indian Commissioner Jones Explains
His Recent Order.

Ills nCCCHI STOCTs
Washington, Jan. 21.-Commission-
er of Indian Affairs Jones has issued
a circular letter to Indian agents de-
signed to correct a somewhat general
misunderstanding of letter he re-
Gently issued to agents directing the
modification or dlscontinuance of a
savage Indian custom. He says the
government mainly directs that agents
cut off all privileges from returning
students who, after coming back from
Carlisle Indian school and similar in
situations, paint their faces, indulge in
barbaric dances and feats and wear
long hair like the old Indians. He
says tact, judgment and perseverance
should be used and that agents should
begin gradually and work steadily un-
til the end in view is accomplished.
It is not intended that agents shall be
so precipitate as to give the Indians
any just cause for revolt.
This announcement, it is stated, is
merely an authoritative Interpretation
of the meaning of the instructions CIV
en- the agents on the question and in
no sense revocation.
