WOMEN FARM HANDS
Speaker at the National Congress
Predicts This Condition.
Il Il Fashionable for Young Women 20 Be
Tanned and Muscular. He Says, and
Modern Machinery IL Max
ing Farm Work Easy.

Macon, Ca, Oct. 11.-John M. Stahl,
of Chicago, at the Farmers National
congress, Friday, spoke of 1.-The
labor problem from the farmers
standpoint" He said in part. Zone OF
the most annoying, difficult and vital
problems of farming is to get a suf-
ficient supply of good labor. Farm
ers could hardly pay higher wages.
But to very small degree is ques-
ton of more wages. The loneliness
of farm life that has been so pow
erful in taking farmer boys from the
farm and in keeping city laborers
from it is fast passing away before
rural free delivery, the farm tele-
phone and the country trolley line.
If by the education and a proper APP
probation of our calling the intro
duction of business methods, we put
farming on the same plane as other
business enterprises, we can COM
mand for it our rightful share of
the faithful, intelligent labor that
now goes to railroading, manufac-
turing and merchandising. This will
come to pass all the sooner, be-
cause the future will see many wo-
men farmers. 1t is already fashion
able for girls to be strong and mus
cular and athletic and sunburned. In
teamwork so much machinery Is used
nowadays that the greater part OF
teamwork on the up-to-date farm
requires intelligence and deXterity
and application rather than muscular
strength. Very much of farm work
is no more firing on the muscles
than operating a typewriter; it Is
much less wearing on the nervous
system, and it is certainly much more
healthful. Woman has taken mans
place to large extent in the school
room, the store, the Office, even the
pulpit and the courts; why not on
the farm? The past harvest quite
number of women worked in the
fields and liked it. There are now
some very successful women farm
ers. The farmer may much indeed
prefer seeing hisdaughter helping him
in the field. operating the mower or
the harvester or hayrake or corn
planter than tempting fate amid the
artificial, unwholesome and danger
Gus conditions of the city.

PERIL OF FOREST FIRES.
Every Year In the United States o. Lives

Property Is Destroyed.

Washington, Oct. 10.-The reports
of recent forest fires in Washington,
Oregon. Wyoming and Colorado, in
which many lives were lost, will add
to the interest in special study OF
the subject which has engaged the
bureau of forestry for several years.
BY impressing the public with some
idea of the peril it suffers from for
est fires. and the enormous damage
they do, the bureau hopes to induce
more effective legislation in suppress
ing them. Investigation has shown
that, in an average year, 60 human
lives are lost in forest fires, $25,OOO,-
600 worth of real property is de-
stroyed, 1O,274.Os9 ,.cres of timber
land are burned over, and young for
est growth worth, at the lowest es-
innate, $75,OOO.O00 is killed. A spe-
cial canvass of the country by the de-
partment of agriculture in 1891 dis
covered 100000 acres OF timber

THE MOB oUrwITTED.
Sheriff spradley. by Many Ruses, Manages
to Place the Murderer of the Hicks
Family IA the Shreveport jail.

Shreveport, La, Oct. 15.-Sherih
John Spradley, of Nacogdoches coun-
ty, Tex, yesterday placed in Jail here
James Buchanan, self-confessed muir
derer of the Hicks family, for whom
a mob of several thousand persons
has been looking for two days. In
order to elude the mob the sheriff's
posse was compelled to resort to
many subterfuges, and during their
journey to this city two deputies
compelled a party of Is men to lay
down their arms. Buchanan was
captured in a swamp near Nacog-
doches. Mobs had gathered at Ten
aha, Appleby, Nacogdocbes and other
places, and to throw the mob at
Nacogdoches off the scent the sheriff
sent the negro ahead with Deputy
Matthews, while he himself took q
train with his other companions.
Matthews was instructed to watch
for the train. The plan miscarried,
however, as a mob saw Matthews and
he was compelled to hide in the woods
with his prisoner. Meanwhile the
crowd, believing the negro to be with
Sheriff Spradley, was after that of
fetal. At Appleby the trains passed
and spradley and his men got aboard
the westbound train as ruse. The
crowd Immediately swarmed aboard
and then Spradley and his men slipped
IN
greatly relieved when they met
Matthews and his prisoner at Lo-
gansport, La. The man was brought
to Shreveport in safety. The sheriff
afterwards got the negro on train
to take him to the Lusk penitentiary.

Possibility That the Proposition of Opera

Present Form.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 15.-From q
thorough canvass of the situation as
it existed last night there is every
indication that the new arbitration
plan proposed by the presidents OF
the coal companies for ending the
miners strike will not be accepted
in its present form. There is a de
vision of opinion among the strik-
ers, but there is no doubt that ma
iority feel that the offer to have the
president of the United States select
an arbitration commission along the
lines suggested by the operators is
not fair and that it unduly limits
the president in making up the board.

Membership Of the q. A. K.
Decreasing.

Washington, Oct. 1O.-In his annual
address to the National G. A. X. en-
campment Commander-in-Chief Tor
rance 4dwelt upon the charges against
extension Commissioner Evans and
his resignation, declaring that the
fight against Evans was just and
that there was no ground for the
wholesale charges of fraud so often
made against pensioners. Referring
to charges that the pension roll con-
tains more names of soldiers than
there are survivors, he said there
are more than 100000 survivors whose
names do not appear on the rolls.
He devoted considerable space to
consideration of the status OF the
ex-confederate soldier, repeating In
spirit his plea of month ago for
the manifestation of good will and
brotherly kindness toward the late
adversaries of the members OF the
Grand Army. Continuing on this
point, he said: 1.-THE most disastrous
results of a civil war are the ami
mostly and bitter feeling engendered
thereby, and I am convinced that
one of the most patriotic services we
can render our country is to ear
nestly aid in removing every barrier
that separates us or estranges the
people. The victory at Appomattox
will yield imperfect fruit if we do
not win the hearts as well as the
flags of the men who wore the gray.
A union of hearts as well as hands
is indispensable to an indissoluole
union of indestructible states"
The report of Adjt. Gen. Silas II.
fowler, of Minneapolis, shows that
on the 3Oth of June last the muster
roll of the Grand Army contained
263,745 names of members in good
standing and that there were 6,511
posts. The figures as to the MEM
bership show net loss since the
preceding year of $500. The adJutant
general says that the high water
mark of membership was attained
in 1890, when it numbered 400, 4S9, and
that there has been gradual de-
cline since that date. Commenting
on this circumstance he says:
"There are still living over 100000
of the men who were part of that
grand army of the sixties and OF
that number less than $4,000 are over
GO years of age. This suggests to me
that if proper energy were put forth
the Grand Army of the Republic
ought to increase in numbers instead
of decrease. The death loss for the
year rs shown by the report is g.
299."
