GOLF AND STAINED GLASS.
Difference of Opinion Between an Artist and am EnthusIast
 of the Links.

The aesthetic portrait painter and the enthusiastic golfer sat before blazing wood fire in the lounging room of the country club. Having nothing in common they had tried in vain to entertain one another, and were now at conversa sational standstill, relates the New York Tribune. A burst of sunlight streaming in through the stained glass window bathed the men and all about them in a flood of red, white, blue and yellow, causing both to look up, and giving the artist n in- spiration.
 Did you ever follow up the evolu- tion of the stained glass window?" he asked.
 '.No. I can't say that ever did, :" replied his companion, bored but re- signed.
 '.Well, the art in its inception dates back to the reign of Caligula, A. D. 37, but up to the beginning of the nine- teenth century the colors were Laid on with paints for the most part. Since the discovery of the art of staining glass by the use of chemicals while in it's molten state, and of other modern processes used in connection with it, the making of stained glass has taken tremendous strides, opening up an entirely new field for the exercise of artistic genius which is being general ly taken advantage of. For in- stance"
 <sNo. Inever thought of that, inter- rupted the golfer, s'but, you know, the game of golf dates back to--''
 tsOh, golf be hanged!" exclaimed the artist, impatiently. You don't seem to think of anything else''
 And he wentaout to admire the beau tiful October landscape, while the other man started to find some one who would play nine holes with him, muttering as he walked along: Golf is a darn sight better fun than stained glass, anyway"

IN WOMEN.
Students of Nervous System Say H
 Is Due to Impulse.
failure to Consider Results Drives Them to Spectacular Deeds They Act First and Think
 sober1y Afterward.

Students of the nervous systems 'f men and women frequently have :alled Eeroism-as it is generally ac- ted-simply pathological indi- cation of hysteria. The basis for his is in the fact that so often a person who has no idea of the art of swimming will plunge into water far beyond his depth in the effort to rescue some one already struggling beyond his powers. The point made that in such eases true heroism is aot involved; that hysterical impulse only prompts the person to the deed. All of which, says the Chicago Tri- pune, points to the fact that it is much easier to become a heroine han it is to become hero.
 For instance, little Mamie Milti- more, living on the Dugdale road, near Waukegon, is a full fedged heroine because she chased burglar more han mile through the ravines. and woods of that section, and only gave it up when, in a burst of speed, ne raced up a long hill and outdis- anced her hopeless1y.
 An0 cuuu, 4o years Olu, saw man breaking into the house of William Butler. A woman neighbor had her attention attracted also, and started lfter the fellow. He ran, soon leav- ng the woman behind, but the child, more feet of foot, continued the chase, keeping up with him for more than mile. Several times she was 50 close to the fellow that he threat ened her. but she did not give up, nntil finally he started up an unus- lally steep hill, and ran so fast that .he could no longer keep him in sight. The child, however, had dis tinct idea of what she was trying 70 do. She explained that she meant only 10 keep him in sight, hoping shat they finally would come upon

FASHIONS MANDATES.
Neck Ruches for FaI Wear-surplice Corsages and Up-to-Date
 Wraps.

Among the artistic trimmings, for the early autumn are the Falstaff neck ruehes with flat stole ends, and large Cromwell cape collars of point de Venise or Vandyke lace.
 Surplice corsas@S, French asquines, kilted skirts, hip yokes, and pepIum styles and overdresses are to be worn on fall and winter gowns, says the New York Post.
 Very little expensive jewe1ry has been worn this summer except on full dress occa sions, but the shirt-waist costumes and the pretty scarfs, belts, and four-in-hand neckties of the sea- son, have afforded an ample opportuhl ity for the display of all sorts of pret. ty stick pins, neck clasps, and buttons, studs, links, slides, fobs, buckles and brooches.
 Low-cut Louis Xv. coats are to form one of the features of autumn wedding reception, and garden-party gowns. They wil be made of peau de soie, satin duche sse, and lustrous Mus. covite silks, as we'll as of matelasse silk and satin brocade. The models reach at least IA inches below the waist line, and the Corday bartha or Marie Antoinette fchu which completes them is of real lace. The coat is lined with either white Liberty satin or mauve moire. The sleeves are in open flowing style, showing rich-Iooing undersleeves that match the elegant blouses to be worn beneath these coats, some of these being of creped chiffon with costly Venice lace ap- p1iques, or else of embroidered white silk batiste daintily lined with soft pink mousseline de soie--the, beautiful rose tint beneath them showing the de vices to marked adyanta oe

Score. of Farmers Burned out.

OREGON CITY, Ore, Sept 15.- Nearly every farmer in the territory covered by the postofices of Dodge and Springwater has been burned out. The loss is appalling and cannot be 'es- timated. People are destitute, home less and without money, food or cloth ing and have called for aid. All Thurs day night and Friday the fire ragged fiercely, following down Clear creek and Clackmas river, crossing Spring water ridge and stopping at the upper edge of Viola. Logan and Viola were saved from destruction by the wind dying down. Fires in that section are now checked, and there is no danger unless the wind shall rise again. The damage was greatsin the Eagle Creek section. Twenty-four places were en- tirely destroyed. Fires in the district near Shubel, Clarkes, Beaver Creek and Moshenk settlement are now un- der control.

IT WAS A DARING RESCUE.
one who would be able to stop

some one who would be able to stop the man.
 When Miss Helen Robinson, of Du- buque, Ia., rescued her friend, Vir. yinia Day, from drowning at Trout Park, Lake Geneva, she was deserv- ing of medal. She, with a number of school friends, had gone to the park for picnic, and as diver sion they had been wading in the water. Some one more daring than the others, got a heavy board and in- stead of wading, foated out some distance from the shore, only to be drawn back by her companions.
 Miss Day got on the board after awhile, and, in floating out, got be- yond her depth, got scared, and, jumping off, dropped into seven feet of water. Shrieking and strangling. she attracted the attention of her comrades, but only Miss Robinson of the party could swim. She, recogniz- ing just how handicapped a person is in trying to rescue panic stricken woman in the water, nevertheless went in and brought the strangling girl ashore. It was daring rescue, and Dubuque has been disposed to make ;s heroine of the young woman.
 Rebecca Davis, of St. Paul, is only 15 years old, but in her rescue of woman neighbor few days ago she showed the judgment of man and more than the ordinary mans pluck. Mrs. Eva Brooks lived just below the Davises in flat building in Third street, and the other evening shriek from the Brooks flat brought Rebec- ca Davis flying down the steps to discover the trouble. The woman had been filling gasoline tank, and while she was at work at it her lit- tie boy unwittingly struck match. Instantly the woman was enveloped in flames, and when the girl reached Mrs. Brooks, the woman was frantic. At once the girl began to tear off the woman's, clothing, but the victim ran out of doors, rolling over and over or the ground in her efforts to extinguish the blaze. The child, fearing that the wind would only fan the flames worse, dragged the woman inside, and, seizing rug from the floor, snothered the fire. Mrs. Brooks was badly burned about the chest, neck and arms, while Rebecca Davis suffered keenly from burns on her arms and hands. Forgetful of her own burns, however, the child went to the icebox, taking eggs from it, and breaking them over Mrs. Brooks scorched body. So intelligently did she act that Mrs. Brooks will get well, while for herself the girl is not scared at all All the commentators the woman has received have not turned her head.

 KALAMA, Wash, Sept. 15.-News has reached here that the forest fires on Lewis river have wrought sad hav- oc. D. L. Wallace, his wife and two children were burned to death. They were camping in the woods when caught by the fire. Their wagon was found burned up, the charred bodies ly- ing near. A twelve-year-old boy of MT. Manley is also dead. Mrs. John Polly, her baby and brother, name un- known, and MT. Newhouse and Mrs. Graves are dead. Fifteen others were found without clothing except gunny sacks.
 Five logging camps are burned out completely. Ten families have lost everything.
 The fire has spread from Lewis riv- CT north to the Kalama river, and fifty sections of the finest timber on the coast have been destroyed. It is inn possible to give any estimate of the amount of the damage done to proper Sdh O16tD tW C4LJ PSAN" here, on the Columbia river, has been destroyed.

$4,000 PAID FOUR
FIRMS OF LAWYERS

The legal firms Of Rosser & Carter John
L. Hopkins & Sons. King & Spalding and
Brandon & Arkwright have severed their
connection with the interests represented
by II. NJ. Atkinson and will no longer rep
resent them in the courts and before the
city council unless some new contract Is
made in the future.
The four firms which carried the COM
panies represented by Mr.. Atkinson
through the long street railway fight and
which finally effected lie consolidation or
the Georgia Electric Light company, the
Atlanta Railway and Power company
and the ---lanta Rapid Transit company
have been paid for their services. Each
firm received $4,000. making total OF
$50 900. which was paid by the Atkinson
interests for the splendid legal services
which aided in winning the fight and
which resulted in Mr.. atkinson obtaining
what he wanted for has companies.
For some three years the fight between
the Atlanta Railway and Power company
and its allied interests was waged bitterly
against the Atlanta Rapid Transit compa-
ny and its allied interests. At every COM
mittee meeting there were lawyers. At
every council meeting there were lawyers.
Lawyers lay awake nights and planned
moves. They drew petitions and counter
petitions, searched out abstruse points or
law and exploited them brilliantly for the
benefit of the public. Lawyers proved one
thing for one company, while other law
yers were just as tireless in proving the
opposite for the other company.

ROTATION SYSTEM
MAY Be ABANDONED
5I5s COUNTY MAY INSIST ON A
"cATcH AS CATCH CAN"
SCRAMBLE FOR NOMINAL
TIoNs HEREAFTER.

MACON, April 1s.-It is supposed by
many to be within the range of possibility
that Bibb county will before great while
be driven out of the rotation system
which has been practiced with regard 10
choosing a senator in this district.
A member Of the senatorial committee,
which met here yesterday, said Judge Ju-
lien Williamson went away from the meet
ing declaring that he would favor a
scramble or a system OF catch as catch
can in future nominations. because he did
not think Bibb had treated Monroe at all
fairly He thought Bibb and Pike should
have stood back and not only allow Mon
roe 10 put forward the candidates for the
nomination, but also allow Monroe 10
choose between her candidates. He said
that unless this were done Il would avail
Monroe nothing 70 have the choice, be-
cause Bibb's greater number OF votes
would make either of the candidates chos-
en- and put forward dependent upon Bibh
for his nomination.
Mr.. S. A. crump. OF Bib. replied TO him
saying that II Monroe had the naming Of
the candidates she certainly ought TO be
willing 70 give tn. other counties whose
interests are at stake 10 help select be-
tween them. The district primary was
finally adopted. but Judge Williamson and
Mr.. Carson. OF Forsyth. went away ex-
pressing dissatisfaction.
The primary viii be held on the same
date the general primary is held, June ..
