THE LATEST TYPE
 OF MAIDEN.

Have you heard of the latest type of maiden?' asked the clever woman be- tween the dinner courses
 The Christy girl looked bored. as did all the other types. The very thought of a new type was tiresome. We have enough, goodness knows. The illustra- tors did their work only too well and they have had many imitators. So many affecting the Gibson woman, pos ing as the Christy girl and imagining that they were of the Menyell type. But they have been throwing away their time. Gibson and Christy, and all the rest of them, must find the new type. The girl of the period Is the Coronation" girl.
 "She is a sweetly feminine creature, went on the clever woman. ''She Is not the woman of the world like the majori- ty of girls are today, even in their first season. She is very demure, and she must blush every time she is spoken to-" l Flushing and courtesing are two strik- l ing changes in the new type. The girl
 of the period Is being taught the courtesy
 of her grandmother's day. It is going to
 be the fad for them to courtesy on the
 street. that little, bobbing courtesy that 1 Is called in England the charity bob" l "The King and Queen Alexandria are ] responsible for the new type All the l London papers are pointing out the radi-
 cal change that will take place, since the l King has determined to reform girhood 1 on what the papers term model of sweet simplicity It is said that the Lon
 don women seeking presentation at court for their daughters are to be told that | if the fc dad jt
 end the girls appearance in court cir cles. It seems that the girl of the period
 will not occupy a prominent position at court. and the London papers say that she will not be encouraged to hold her
 own against matrons and that she will
 be properly treated as girl and nothing | ing morc."
 The evolution of the "coronation" girl, 1t is believed, will have great effect on the American girl because in this coun-
 try as well as abroad the average girl is allowed too much freedom and knows too much of the world. It is only too true that American girls wish to appear worldly, and fully agree with a recent writer who declares that nothing can be
 more charming than the American girl bright and clever as she is, but toned down from her too exuberant manner to the charming simplicity of the old-fash- toned girl"
 Then the coronation girl, we are told, will mark change In fashions She will be distinguished for her simplicity in dress and she will not scintilate in jewels nor put up her hair when she Is only six teen"
 The coronation girl will not indulge In cake-walks and sing coon songs. but on the other hand she will be the charm ing. graceful creature of her prandmoth CTS day, and it will be fashionable for her to blush and courtesy, a decided con- trast to the present type"

'LAND OFFICE BUSINESS"
MIR. f. Il. Grimm Tells About 1t.

F. T. Griffin, the land commissioner of
the Canadian Pacific Railway company,
upon being interviewed, reports very
marked advance in the value of farming
lands convenient to the railways in alt
parts of Manitoba and the Northwest Ter
ritories. Land which year ago could be
purchased from the railway company at
So per acre, now sells readily at SIS per,
acre, and other lands in proportion. To
those who know the country well this is
not surprising. The large immigration Of
last year both from Europe and the United
States and the prospects OF a very great
increase from all quarters this season,
together with the tremendous crop of 1901
all contribute to exceptional activity in
farm land sales and to substantial in
crease in values. Then tn quaelity of
the lands must be considered.

tinent can finer wheat growing lands be

farmers from the grain growing states
have to see the land to know its value.
The sales of the railway company'si lands
| in 1901 were double those Of the previous
year, and those of 1901 will be trebled this
year without doubt; in fact, were it not

No expensive system of municipal or
county organization has been introduced
into the Canadian Northwest. There is
instead simple and economical law in
operation, known as The Local Improve
mcnt Ordinance, under which districts of
varying area are organized. Each quar-
ter section of land, consisting of 100 acres,
owned or occupied, is taxed to. the extent
Of 81 to $3.50 per annum. The only other
tax levied is that for schools. The total
tax for all purposes on a quarter section
seldom exceeds 81 to IS per annum, an:
in those portions of the country where
the settlers have not yet decided to form
school districts the total taxation per
quarter section, is only from 81 to $3.50
per annum.

school system Of Manitoba and the vest
ern territories is the eaual of any on the
continent. In Manitoba the rnral schools
are about three miles apart and the sys
tenn is free. The government makes an
annual grant of a considerable sum to
each school. All Of the expenses, teach
ers' salaries included, are paid from this
grant and taxes on the land within the dis
trict whether occupied or unoccuped.s In
these schools all of the ordinary branches
are taught. In many of the village schools
where two or more teachers are employed,
a more complete course is given. In the
city and town schools collegiate insti-
tutes ere maintained where students are
fitted for the several colleges at Winni-
peg and other points in Canada. One

Plenty of Teachers. 1858,
In 1871 the school population of Mani
toba was SIT, and now it is 59,sll. IN
1883 the average attendance was 5,064,
and now it is 5,45S. In 1888 there were
246 teachers in the province, and the num-
Der is now 1,472. about one-half males,
and there appears to be no scarcity, as
between 500 and 900 new certificates were
granted during the past year. sFIhese
figures show one teacher for every 24C
people or every forty children. The en-
tire value of the school properties of the
province is now $1410,719 or nearly s.
per head for the entire population, con-

With the order which the Santa
Fe has placed for I5o electric
headlights with which all the pas
senger locomotives on the road
are to be equipped, the end of the
acetylene lights is marked. They
were given fair test Of good
many months, but somehow the
results were not satisfactory. 1t
is said that the gas is an admirable
iiluminant in places where there is
no motion to jar the generating
apparatus, but on trains it seems
to have proved a failure. Less
than half year ago it was used in
a number of the new passenger
coaches which the company ran
through here, but after about S4o,-
900 worth Of equipment had been
destroyed and several people
burned; the acetylene lamps were
taken out and Pintsch gas put in

While Kansas people claim if it
were not for irrigation the water
would flow to them, the Colorado
people contend that but little OF
the water originating in Colorado
would reach Central Kansas for
the reason that it would sink in
the sand and disappear in the bed
of the stream. The engineers
concluded that since this enormous
flood, SO greatly exec. ding the
ordinary flow OF the river, disap-
peared SO rapidly as it advanced
toward the interior of Kansas, it is
evident that even il there were no
diversion of water in Colorado by
irrigation, comparatively little OF

ing in this state would reach Wich-

SAINT. =. Kick. on Valuation.

The Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe Railroad Company is dissatis-
fed with the valuation fixed on its
property by the state board OF
equalization and has filed a COM
plant and petition setting forth
the fact that it believes the assess
nent excessive and inequitable
and asking that its complaint be
set for hearing September 9th, the
date, fixed by law when these ap
peals may be heard. The petition
recites that the valuation of SI8,-
o5r.68 per mile, fixed upon the
main line from the state line to
Pueblo and from La Junta to the
New Mexico line is excessive and
unreasonable and that il is out Of
proportion to other lines similarly
situated. The valuation Of 81, 900
per mile, fixed upon the Rockvale
branch, is pronounced out Of pro
portion to the assessment on paral-
lei lines. This is the first protes,
from railroad company against
the valuation fixed by the state
board, and il is understood the
