The Amateur Philosopher.

A widower marrfes sooner than a
widow but that doesn't necessarily prove
that woman is more constant than
man. The widow must wait to be
asked.
The average woman leads such a dull
and uneventful life that she has moth
ing to look forward to but the next in
stallment of a serial story.
The woman who never forgets her
SELF is she who always remembers not
to lift her skirt high enough to show
where the silk facing on the lining
ends
1t has been said that man is not
really a gentleman unless he's a gentle
man when he is drunk, and a real
LADY, may be distinguished from an i'm
itation when she's angry
The reason a great many people are
disconnected is that their lives lack
variety and monotony is a proof OF lack
of resources. Every one should have
a voca ton to employ most of their time
an avocation for leisure moments. and
a vacation to get away from both at

CUT OUT STREET FAIRS
Grand Lodge of Elks Places Ban
on Carnivals.

Salt Lake, Utah. Aug. 1.-THE grand
lodge of ElkS today adopted the recon-
mendation of the committee on rules
and laws absolutely prohibiting the
holding of street fairs or carnivals un-
der the auspices of Elks lodges. AS a
number of lodges throughout the coun-
try have already made arrangements
for fairs or carniyalS to take place in
the next few months, the law will not
go into effect until January 1. The de-
bate over the question was quite Spir-
tied, but the feeling among the men,
bers of the grand lodge that such fairs
and carnivals were not in accord with
the fundamental principles of the order
was evidently very strong and the COM
mittee's recommendations were over
whelmingly adopted.
The grand lodge had a busy session on
this, the final day of the annual reunion
Considerable routine business remained
to be disposed of as well as the installa-
ton of the newly-elected grand iodgS
officers, and final adjournment was not
looked for before late this afternoon
Today's outdoor programme consisted
of the prize drill contest of uniformed
marching clubs. The large body of Wis
iting ElkS gave the day over to excur-
sions to Ogden and pleasure resorts

being impossible for him to make his
voice heard above the crash of the hun

HE WHIPPED GAINES.
Secretary Curran Chastises the
Fusion Editor.

At $3.50 Wednesday afternoon the
peace and quiet of Quincy street was
fractured by strong language, mingled
with yells for help The occasion was
the trimming of Editor N. II. Gaines
of the Advocate by John Curran. secre-
tary of the state Populist committee
The fight, which was a one-slded affair
was not an accident Curran went after
Gaines with the intention of doing him
bodily injury, and according to his
story, he had sufficient proyocation. Ac-
cording to Curran Gaines has been
wreaking his vengeance on him by in
decently connecting his name with that
of young lady. The vile story reach
ed the ears of the young lady first, with
the result that she was almost thrown
into Mysteries. She at once called upon
Mr.. Curran's wife and told her what
Gaines had said. Mrs. Curran told her
husband, who at once started out to
punish the villifier. He found Gaines
near the alley, several doors from his
Office, and opened the ball at once By
the time Gaines got started Curran was
on his back, beating him in a scientific
manner. At the doorway the editor
was knocked down and further mis-
treated. He ran into his office, but the
nemesis on his trail was relentless, and
flee. Gaines was yelling for help. and
his son finally responded Curran
charged on the achievements, who
hastily retired. Il don't like to whip a
cur, who will not fight back" said Mr..
Curran this morning, but I considered
it my duty to punish Gaines for his
vileness. A man must protect his fam
lily and-friends from SANDER or its ef-
fects, if possible
After the combatants, or rather, the
combat ant, and his victim were sepa-
rated, Gaines retired to his composing
room and returned with a large mallet,
which he brandished and said: Il am
tired of having people come up here and
whip me. and 1 am going to have it
stopped"
Dr. W. c. Hamilton was called and
made some needed repairs on Gaines
head, after which the victim of Curran's
wrath went to the county attorney and
swore out a complaint against his as
saiiant charging him with assault and
battery. Curran returned his 5000 bond
after it had been used as an autograph
album by a number of prominent men.
Gaines has an entirely different story
to tell He says that the fight was the
result of his attitude in the American
Book company case He says that Cur
ran had resented the attack made on
the book trust through the Advocate.
