WOMAN'S INFLUENCE.

While it is a common theory that,
no matter what the father and hus-
band may be, the mother and wife
must rise superior to her environ
ments, the fact remains that the home
is as much the mans as the woman's,
and he is relieved of none of his re-
sponsibilities because society assigns
| it to her as her special province. No
| man has right to shirk his duty to
his children because, perchance, he
has good wife and they have a good
mother.
The wife and mother rules by love,
husband may rule by authority as
well as love. The wife and mother
who finds that her love is losing it's
influence over her children requires,
but is too often denied, the dis
ciplinary authority of the husband
and father. The wrecks of children
may be traced oftener to the failure
of the husband to come to the as
sistance of the wife than to any fault
Of the latter.
Too much, we believe, is said of the
shortcomings OF women in these days
Those mothers and wives who are
neglectful of their homes constitute
the minority. The average American
mother is serious, unselfish and low
ing. If this were not the case we
should not have, as we have today, a
higher average Of young manhood
than any other country on earth.
The assumption that wives and
mothers are mainly to blame for the
waywardness of children is neither
reasonable nor fair. 1t is due usually
to a few exceptional cases which, be-
cause of their exceptional character,
deeply impress the observer. In gen.
eral, woman's devotion and love do
not change as the child grows old,
save for the better.-Chicago Inter
Ocean.

FACTS EOR MEDIATION.

NJ. Marchand has investigated the
brains Of LIB persons Immediately
after death. The brains of newborn
boys weigh on the average 81 grams,
Of newborn girls 361. At the end of
the first year the figures are: Boys,
967; girls, 500. By the end of the
third year the weight of the brain has
tripled, and from this epoch it in
creases very slowly, especially with
girls. 1t attains its greatest weight
at about 1912 years for men, at about
II for women. The average weight of
the brain Of an adult male is 1,400
grams, of an adult female 1915 grams.
The reduction of weight due to senile
atrOphy commences with men about
the eightieth year, with women about
the seventeen year The heaviest
brain on record is that of the novelist
Tourgeniff (2,120 grams), one of the
lightest is that of Gambetta I1,160
grams).

GERMANY'S CHEAP FUEL.

Chicago Record Herald Further
light on the manufacture and use OF
briquettes manufactured from brown
coal mines in Germany is furnished
by Frank H. Mason, our consul general
at Berlin. Mr.. Mason says that
these briquettes form the principal
domestic fuel Of Berlin and other
cities of Germany, they are used for
locomotive and other steam firing, and
are employed for heating in various
processes of manufacture
As for their advantages he says that
they are clean and convenient to
handle, light easily and burn with
clear, intense flame; make practically
no smoke, and are the cheapest form
OF fuel for most purposes.
The total output of briquettes for
1901 was 1,566,385 tons. In the man
ufacture of this amount 1886 tons
Of mineral pitch were used, at q. cost
Of $10.25 per ton delivered. The aver.
age price per ton last year was So .16.
which was an advance of 81 over the
prevailing price in 1895, and showed
A-N' N+4N piCuuCC4OII anu sale Oh DrI-
quettes can be controlled by syndi-
cate
Mr. Mason also refers to the econ
omy in fuel effected in Germany by
the use OF coke, in which every ele-
ment Of the bituminous coal is saved
either in smokeless coke or gas, and
adds: IF American municipalities
beyond the economic range of anthra-
cite are ever emancpated from their
present Vassalage to the smoke nuis-
ance it will be through the enforced
use OF one or more Of three forms of
prepared fuel, viz, coke and fuel gas
made in closed ovens from bituminous
coal, and briquettes made from 1ig-
mite, peat and other inferior materials
by processes which have been in
vented, tested and proven to be eff
hcient by the older and more economi-
cal countries of Europe"

Berlin, Oct. 18.-The boer generals
are much disappointed at the small

lean gave more than that. AS soon
as the tour of the continent is COM
pleted the generals will go to Amer
lea. The pan-German group is doing
everything possible to give the de-
monstrations of an anti-British char
acter, but the beers have refused out
right to do some of the things sus-
gested.
For instance, it was widely adver>
tlsed that the generals would Law a
wreath at the foot of the statue of
Emperor William l, near the schloss.
Enormous crowds gathered there ana

cts realized $6,750, some persons pay

Lueckoff, member of the reiohstag and
president of the boer reception com
mittee, presided. In his speech he
spoke in high terms of the conduct of
the beers during the south African
war. The speeches of the boer gen.
erals were eagerly applauded. They
avoided attacks upon England, but
the audience cried "Shame!" when
Botha mentioned the concentration
camps and referred to the charge that
Kruger carried off Transvaal money.
Thre young ladies presented laurel
wreaths to the boer generals and De-
larey and Dewett kissed the girls who
made the presentation. kilograms of
greeting were sent to Kruger and
Steyn.

ployed.
By securing the best text books
wherever produced, and paying royal
ties for them, the California board of
education would certainly improve the
standard of public instruction. and
remove from the state the reproach of
sacrificing its children at their
studies. There would remain, how
ever, the scandal Of extravagant print
ing, and the inferior mechanical get
up Of the books printed at the state
printing Office. The trouble at this
point is the familiar one of politics and
plumber. The state printing office is
the spoil of politicians, and it has been
for years. It is now to their personal
advantage to have the school books
printed by the state, since the bust
ness makes just so much more TO go
around" If California is to continue
its unique experiment Of publishing
its own school books, there should at
least be radical reorganization OF

the experiment must be a permanent
failure in case that Office is not run on

New York, Oct. 19.-Willfam c. Tur-
ner, former president and treasurer

terday shot and killed w. J. MaIlard.
secretary and treasurer of the COM
pany, Robert Hamilton, its president.
and then killed himself with the Same
weapon. Another revolver, loaded in
every chamber, was found in Turner's
pocket, and it is believed he planned
to take more lives than he did. The
shooting was caused by a quarrel be-
tween the men over an alleged short
age in Turner's accounts for which he
was threatened with criminal prosecu-
ton. The tragedy occurred in the Of
fees of the law firm Of Cantor, Adams
& Mcintyre in the heart of the Swall
street district during the busy noon
hour. Turner was a cousin OF Govern
or Odell. Mallard was a native of
Atlanta, Ga, where he was well known
in business and social circles and had
been president of the Young Mems
democratic club there. He had been
in this city about four years Hamil-
ton lived in Pittsburg. He arrived in
this city yesterday. The three men
met in the law office by appointment
to allow Turner to make a partial
settlement and he was asked for a
certified check
Il have it," hes aid, and then closed
the door. An instant later he drew a
revolver and began firing. Mallard
fell shot through the heart and Ham
ilton lived only few minutes. The
clerks and members of the firm in
the room fed in a panic. After kill
ing Hamilton and Mallard, Turner
shot himself in the head. Some
moments later, hearing no more shots,
the persons who fed ventured back
into the room and found the three
bodies.
+ Turner retired as president Of the
Climax Bottling company last April
when he was bought out by Hamilton.
After the sale a shortage of $500
was discovered. After long negotia-
lions $2,700 was decided upon as a
settlement in full and the money was
to be paid yesterday. During the con-
ference Turner was asked for the
check and said, Yes, | will let you
have it"
He closed the door and addressing
Mallard said Il will kill you, you
--." He then fired the shots at
Mallard. All except Hamilton sprang
for the door, but Hamilton when Tur-
ner fired, sprang at him to grapple
with him. Turner was too quick, how
ever, and dropping his weapon level
with his victims breast fired. There
is no witness to what followed. After
the others had left the room more
shots were heard followed by two
heavy falls. When persons connected
with the law Offices ventured back
into the room they found the three
bodies lying close together.
On Turner's corpse the coroner
found a certified check for S2,70O. The
later is regarded as throwing peculiar
light On the case, for it is thought to
indicate that Turner went to the of
fees with the probable intention of
paying the money which was to have
settled the difficulty If so, it is ar
gued, he changed his mind suddenly,
and decided to kill.

PIRATES TnEATER IN HAVANA

The Tacon theater in Havana, one
of the largest and most famous in the
western hemisphere, was built by an
old reprObate, Marti, who was a noto-
rious pirate in his day and obtained
immunity for himself by betraying his
comrades into the hands of the Span
ish authorities. One dark and rainy
night Marti slipped by the sentry
guarding the palace in Havana and
entered the apartments of the captain
general, who was writing at a table.
When the captain-general raised his
eyes and saw the clOaked figure be-
fore him, he reached for the bell
Stop, your excellency!" cried the
stranger. II am here on a desperate
enterprise. I have come to deliver
into your hands every pirate on the
Cuban coast upon one conditional
pardon for myself"
"You shall have it." was the answer
But who are you?"
I'm Marti, and I rely upon the
promise you have given me-"
Preparatory to this interview Marti
had appointed a rendezvous for the
different bands, to which he conducted
the Spanish forces, and every pirate
was captured and righteously CARROT
ed. AS to Marti, he was rot only par
dOned, but was given a monopoly of
the sale Of fish in Havana. which
made him a rich and thus eminently
respected citizen, who ended his days
in the odor Of sanctity Army and
