SAGASTA'S RETIREMENT
From the Spanish Cabinet Is Again Be
ing Talked Of

Madrid. May 29.-The possibility of
the early retirement of Senior Sagasta
from the premiership is again being
discussed in connection with the differ
enCes regarding the meeting of the
Cortes. The President OF the Senate
Senior Monteo Rios considers that as no
decree proroguing the session has been
issued the law requires the reassemb-
ling of Parliament and he has decided
10 summon the same to NEE, June ?.
Senior Sagasta is opposed to convok-
ing the Cortes and will appeal to the
King, who, ii is said, will not sign the
proroguation decree without consulta-
ton with other political leaders. 1t is
held i'll some quarters that such action
on the part of His Majesty will render
Senior Sagasta's position untenabie.

lands amendment was defeated, G. to 80.

subsidiary coins should be half and
m ~ dollars
pieces of .proportionate parts of 412I2

vision.

Rights of Navajo Women.

The Navajo woman, who has made
her tribe the most famous of all living
Indian races by means of her great and
excellent invention, the Navajo blan-
ket, occupies a social position of great
independence. Her property rights are
carefully respected. She owns much of
the wealth Of the tribe, and her chill
dren belong to her alone A woman
may have hIrdreds Of sheep when she
marries, and not one becomes the prop
erty of her husband. Descent is traced
through the female line. 1t is sur
vival Of the primitive matri-archate.
The Navajo woman has no perma-
nent home. The progress of the tribe
has been greatly impeded by its dark
superstition that every death is caus-
ed directly by Chinde, the devil. and
that evil spirits linger about the dead
body. The house Is never occupied
again. The corpse is buried In the
floor, and the house pulled down over
it, and a Navajo would freeze before
he would make fire upon the logs OF
one of these deserted heaps. So the
Navajo hogan" is poor, temporary
affair, a mere circular hut of logs and
stones, with a hole in the roof for the
smoke and a blanket for the door. In
the summer the Navajo woman loves to
move into brush ''wickyup," made Of
greasewood boughs. There she sets up
her loom in the shadow of the rocks,
and lives in Inc open air all summer.

The Punishments of a school.

When the John Worthy School of Chi
cago was created there was no law on
the statute books prohibiting fogging,
and so the institution fiogged. Soon So
ciety heard of it, raved, fomented and
sprinkled protests In the newspapers,
and afternoon teas, appalled, hut not
speechless, were agog with indignation.
and the great city council, stirred by
the feminine fluster, put, as it were,
gag on society's mouth by enacting an
ordinance making corporal punishment
unlswful. Then the solitary cell, known
otherwise as the solitary, or, yernacu-
larly, as "the hole,H came into exist
ence-solitary confinement for one, two
or three days, according TO the offense.
But it was found that offenses were
committed for which solitary confine-
ment of any length of time would be
too severe but which still ou-he TO be
checked by proper reprimand. To sup
ply this want a new and peculiarly
punitive device was contrived. In
course of time it became known as
'ploughing,'' a term suggestive of any
thing but prison life. This new punish
ment consisted of continuous walking
about the four sides of large rectan-
gular hall. the walking being ineessant
under watch of a guard. and of dura-
ton sufficient in length TO permit the
sufferer 10 hear at least one meal gong

a FIERY FURNACE.


That Is What the New Drawingroom
of the Blanks Was.
The Blanks have been very busy all
during the spring getting their new
house ready for occupancy. They have
had painters and paper hangers and
decorators and machinists in 1t for
two months. and a few of these busy
people were still there doing odd jobs
when the family moved in. one of the
hottest days of last week.
To say that the rooms We're warm is
to use foolishly inadequate descrip-
ton. They were fiery furnaces. Even

MOVING Sidewalk IN Paris.

A well-known engineer, NJ. Casalon.
ga, is so favorably impressed with the
practicability of the moving sidewalk
that he has worked out plan for
a rolling platform running from the
Place de In Coneorde to the Place de Ia
Bastlle. That part Of Paris now has
an omnibus line, but owing TO the
crowded condition of the streets the
accommodations are very unsatisfac-
tory. The platform itself would con
sist of three parallel parts, running
with speeds of ?, 4, . and I miles an
hour. respectively. \ passenger walk
ing on the third platform could thus
attain speed of nine to ten miles.
The promoters are contemplating even
a quadruple platform, making the high
er speed as great as twelve to fourteen
miles an hour.

CARE IN KINGS MEDICINES.
