Chicago now has a wOman'S brass
band Of twenty pieces. There are
but three brass bands in the country
composed Of women entirely. The
other two are in Boston and San Jose,
Cal. There are several women's Or
chestras and many women cornet and
trombone soloists, but only three bands
in which everything from the clarinet
to the big bass drum and bass horn
are played by women.
The organizer Of petticoats' band is
Professor Charles S. Horn, professor
of cornet in the Chicago Piano College.
During the winter months the women
will meet for rehearsal weekly and will
give a few concerts in the small towns
near Chicago. With this training it
is believed the players will soon be in
condition to compete with the veteran
members of the older bands Of the
country.
When the sight of a brightly uni
formed band becomes familiar to citi-
zens Of Chicago the band will start on
Il tour of the United States. The leader
expects to arrange a series of contests
with the other two women's bands, and
have it determined whether Chicago
can produce rs good or better musi-
clans than Boston or the Pacific coast.
Uniforms have not been decided on
yet, but it is probable that they will
be distinctively feminine and not SAVIOR

A Cat Saves Seventeen Lives.

Seventeen persons owe their lives to
the action OF an old pet cat. At day
light Ruxton Terrace Hotel was de-
stroyed by fire. The flames were dis
covered by Jerry, the hotel cat, which
rushed in frantic haste to the bed of
Mrs. Annie Menninger, the landlady.
Springing on her face the cat awoke
her, and by frantically scratching
away the covering aroused the woman
to her danger. Then the cat rushed
through the house, caterwauling and
scratching at doors until the last guest
was out. AL had to dress running,
wrapped in blankets. Two babies
We're in the house. Jerry will b. re-
membered with n medal.-Manitou

Record-Herald.

Thought He Was Ma Il.

The late Count de Lesseps was tray
cling on one occasion in French rail
way train, in compartment with two
commercial travellers.
II beg your pardon, sir" said one of
them, fancying that he belonged to
their fraternity, "are you not a trav'
eler?"
Certainly 1 am" said the Count.
1--WE thought SO! What is your
line:'
"Isthmuses."
"Wh-wn-what," asked the puzzled
commercial, 'what are they"
II am introducing ship canals" said
De Lesseps, gravely.
The commercial travellers feared that
they had fallen in with lunatic, and
were making their preparations to es-
cape, when the Count handed them his
card, and put them at their ease

PRAIRIE DOGS DOOMED.
Inability to Find Suitable Poison Has
Deferred the Fate.

Prairie dogs are becoming an unmiti-
gated pest in the West, and their ex-
termination is ardently desired but
difficult Of accomplishment. Professor
Lantz of the Kansas State Agricultural
College, in a communication to Gov
ernor Stanley, says that the prairie
dogs are destroying the ranges in
Western Kansas and Nebraska and
Eastern Colorado, cattle preferring to
go without grass to eating that which
has been run over by the dogs. In
Kansas alone the prairie dogs occupy
million and a quarter acres. Pro-
fessor Lantz, who had charge of the
expenditure OF $4,000 appropriated by
the last Kansas Legislature to be used
In finding some means of killing off
the pests, has experimental with poi
sons for six months, but as yet has
failed to find any that is successful.

The Woman Behind the Veil,

The custom of wearing face wells
among the women of the Orient is
very ancient one, and undoubtedly
the wedding and widows wells of our
day are remnants of that Old World
fashion. The Oriental woman prizes
her veil above any other article of her
wardrobe; rather than have a strange
man look upon her uncovered face
she will snatch Il curtain, counterpane
or her petticoats in ner haste to con-
ceal her features, utterly regardless
of other parts of her anatomy which
may be exposed by the action. This
need not seem SO very absurd when
we remember that it is part Of most
Oriental religions to keep the women
in exclusion and that Mohammed of
blessed memory made the command a
binding one.
Turkish DANES of high degree wear
dainty squares of white illusion CO.
Quettishly wound about their heads
aud faces which cover but in no wise
conceal their beauty. This style has
been growing smaller and more diaph-
anous until now the Turkish woman's
face Is less concealed than the Euro
pean wonan's who clings to the close
square of tulle.
The Algerian women wear yards of
soft gauze about their heads and
shoulders; when coming in contact
with European men these are grace
fully draped so as to leave but the up
per portion of the face visible. The
five yard sarong of the Parsee women
makes dress skirt, covers a greater
portion of the body, leaving one arm
and shoulder free, and is then most
artistically arranged about the head.
The Nautch girls who wear the curious
nose rings and expensive jewels on
their feet and heavy anklets, make use
of the sarong in their gliding dances,
but they seldom use them for face
covering. The married women and
widows of the Basque provinces use a
combination cloak and hood similar
to that worn by the women Of San
Miguel.
Mohammedan women have variety
of face wells, modified by climate and
the country in which they live. The
yasmak of the Turkish and Egyptian
women is unknown to the women of
India, who enyelop their faces in the

More OpiniOn.

The world never gets a very high

The modish ulster is belted in.
Changeable or two-toned broadcloth
is something new.
Lace will be used for trimming all
but the corduroy waists.
Panne velvet, plain and fancy, is
used for entire waists, as well as for
trimming purposes.
On the dressy coats shown this sea-
son for children silver knob buttons,
richly chased, are among the novel
ties.
Heavy white silk embroideries are
let into the thick, white scratch wool
which is used in some of the smart
hats of the season.
Long, narrow, oval-shaped dots Of
black are to be seen on neckwear. One
stock has a large, white lace bow,
with these dots in black velvet as
much as quarter Of an inch long. A
big tulle bow has smaller dots of vel
vet the same shape.
Oak leaves which are monstrosities
from the botanical standpoint, but
charming from the milliner's, are to
be seen in all colors of velvet. One
hat is formed almost entirely Of these
oak leaves in white velvet, veined with
pink, and with a delicate pink fruit OF
some kind.
There seems to be an increasing bril-
liancy in the coloring of ornaments of
jewels. One beautiful opal brooch has
a large opal in the centre, one of IN
usual brilliance, and around this is a
row Of large rubies, and outside, the
rubies row OF larger diamonds. The
pin is oval

WHAT TO DO WITH DAUGHTERS
They Are Advised to Seek an Occupation
and TO Think Less of Marriage.

1hey are ADVISED to Seek an Occupation
and to Think Less of Marriage.
"It is strange fact, disputed by a
few, but generally corroborated, that,
While young men are looking askance
at matrimony, young women, who are
supposed to find the responsibilities
of marriage the more irksome, are ap-
parently as much inclined to it as
ever" says Kate Upson Clark in Les
lies Weekly. Indeed, women with
any pride Of sex must feel their blood
boil at the cartoonist and the para
grapher, who vie with each other in
depicting the agonizing efforts of the
Mays and the Angelinas to coax q
proposal out Of the unwilling Claudes
and Algernons.
"The mothers Of the young women
seem to share their wishes. In con-
sequence OF the trend of the popular
Joking these fond parents are placed
in a most unenviable position. They
scarcely dare to invite a young man
to their houses. Since affairs are in
this state, we must train our daughters
accordingly. In order toretain their self
respect they must occupy a perfectly
independent attitude. They must be
taught that ideal marriages are rare,
and even an ordinarily happy union is
none too common. Therefore, since
either one of these desirable boons
may not come their way, they must
be ready to grasp some other. There
are many good things besides matri-
Thapnforn xpbi1o hp1linor ~
self toward marriage in a proper posi-
tion of tentative acceptance, it is
worth while to look over the field and
find out what blessings, in the line of
life work, are within the reach of the
average woman.
"Many mothers discourage the de-
sire Of their daughters to go to college.
To those who intend to teach col
lege diploma is now q necessity.It is
also n substantial help in securing the
constantly multiplying positions as
cashiers, foorwalkers, proofreaders, in
surance agents-in fact every business
b in which highly trained intelligence
is required. Naturally, professional
success is also nearly impossible with
out it. All this is settled. It is no
longer a matter of opinion.
E"It is true that the college girl some
times becomes slangy and careless, and
occasionally loses that sweet longing
for home which has been counted one
OF woman's most alluring attributes
but these are usually mere surface and
temporary manifestations. The 'eter-
nal womanly' is there, just as it was
in Eve and Rachel and Jezebel-and
with much better morals, you may be
sure. And what is the use of being
the dependent, clinging, adoring crea
ture of the sentimentalist when there
is no man at hand to depend upon and
cling to and adore? Therefore, while
retaining unimpaired the faculty for
depending and clinging and adoring
(the poor girls cannot lose it if they
wouldD let us teach our daughters
that it is contemplate to be hanging
around, idly awaiting the attentions
of lot of impudent young men, who
are as likely as not to chaff at the
way in which the girls make eyes at
them, and who poke fun at the fran
tic efforts which are put forth to en-
trap them by some Of these men-coyet-
ing maidens."

How Deserts Are Reclaimed.

In the Western country, where tie
farmers depend mostly on stock rails
ing, tract OF five, ten or twenty acres
can be irrigated by means Of wells
pumped by windmills or engines. This
small tract gives large yield per acre
in the form of vegetables, fruit and
alfalfa, enabling the farmer to keep
pigs and cows sufficient for home use.
In some sections, such as the region
about Gordon City, Kan, irrigation is

 H. c. Dickey arrived in the city last night for the Hoey trial. which has been set for April 11th. MT. Dickey came from Washington by way of Memphis, Tenn, where he makes his home. He says that the government is ready to go to trial in the Hoey case and hopes to conclude it at this term of court. MT. Lemore will leave Gal weston on the first of next month so as to be here in good time for the trial
 When asked how the death of Line rider Hathaway would effect the trial, MT. Dickey replied that the govern ment officers interested in the case were all shocked to hear of the un- timely end that had come to Captain Hathaway. but he did not think that the absence of this testimony would effect the case materially. He stated that Captain Hathaway was more of . corroborative witness, and in that re- gard only was his testimony valuable to the prosecution.
 Judge Barnes, counsel for Mir. Hoey, is at present in New York. but will return to Tucson in time for the trial.
 Unless the defense has some sur prise to spring. the Hoey case will no doubt go to trial early in the ses. sion at this term of court Hoey is living at Nosales where he is interest ed in the mining property near Llano. Sonora.-Tucson Citizen.
