name was followed by the address,

with the affair. In the first place
the lady was a very pretty. dark

ELEYATING.

Woman is the chief uplifting force in
the world, and why should she not run
what the English call 'lifts?" We do
not pause for a reply, because we know
there isn't any that needs to be paused
for. Woman should run everything she
wants to in any way she wants to,
world without end, amen. Therefore
she should run elevators if she wants
to. There are signs in Boston that she
wants to. The elevator girl has made
her appearance in fashionable down
town stores, luncheon rooms for wo-
men. dressnaking establishments and
various philanthropic institutions for
women that abound there. It all came
about because the elevator man at the
Women's Educational and Industrial
union left. Looking around for some
one to take his place, one of the man
ayers suggested putting in a girl. The
idea delighted the other managers, and
it was adopted at once. A young and
pretty girl was found, and she is now
running the elevator, wearing a neat
white cap and apron. A week later a
girl appeared in the mirror-lined eleva-
tor of the Young Womens Christian
association. The idea caught on" and
girls got employment in elevators in
other establishments. The elevator girl
is fast becoming popular in Boston.
Good idea. Here's to the elevator
girl and the elevating girl. May she
keep on rising and graciously take the
low-down male critters up with her.

AN AcRoBATIc KANSAS HORSE

AN ACROBATIC KANSAS HORSE.
This afternoon as Asa Clements was
driving the big gray horse hitched to
the Wells-Fargo express wagon up
Commercial street the horse stumbled
and fell at Fourth avenue, and in the
fall the bride bit was broken in two.
The horse struggled to its feet and
started up the street at gallop, the
driver being powerless with no bride.

Joe Markley. an old soldier, living on
West Sixth avenue, was just turning
around in the middle of the street in
his buggy when the express horse came
along. The express horse attempted to
jump over the buggy but struck direct
ly between the horse and buggy, and
the momentum of the heavy express
wagon drove it over the small buggy in
which Mr.. Barley was sitting and
crushing 1t to kindling wood. Every
one who saw the accident expected to
see Mr.. Barley killed, but he was
thrown out of the way Of the wagon
and escaped with several severe bruises

SOME TIT FOR tat.

They are discussing the everlasting
and ever-pressing servant girl question
in Kansas City, ana one of the girls
has taken part in the discussion. Of
course what she says isn't worth and
wont receive as much attention as what
the ladies say, but it may properly be
noticed. The charges most often made
against hired girls are that they fit too
fast from place to place; that they will
not do enough work and altogether re-
fuse to do some kinds Of work; that
they are not so willing or efficient as
the servants of the last generation;
that they are impairment; that they
want too much wages and too much
time off "A Servant replies that
some mistresses make a practice of
keeping girls only short time; that
many treat their help inconsiderately
and unkindly; that servant girls are 50
hard-worked that thousands of them
break down; that servants are willing
to work and do work as hard now as
they used to, but that the more elab-
crate entertainments their mistresses
give make their labor heavier than ever
before; that they are given practically

Awhile ago, at the height of the stock
market boom, there weren't cars
enough to transport the money the
railroads were earning. This sad stu
alton has changed for the better, but
the difficulty now is to get cars enough
to transport the freight. In 1901 the
tonnage moved by the railroads was
1,0S4000,0O0. This tonnage was moved
by 100000 freight cars and 10000 en-
gines. 1t was estimated that for 1902
the tonnage would reach 1.100 100000.
On the estimate for 1901, 10000 cars
were added for the work; on the esti-
mate for 1902, $4,000 cars. But 1t now
appears that the tonnage offered for
transportation is so far in excess OF
the estimate that the demand for cars
exceeds by $4,000 the supply. The
freight yards and freight houses at the
shipping points throughout the country
have for weeks been in an uncomforta-
bly, crowded condition, and unavoida-
BILE delays have been common expert
ences for consignees. The prospect
now is that what has been uncomforta-
BILE will, in a short time, become a
condition of blockade. The situation is
bad now; "a sudden period of cold
weather would make it worse, almost
to the point Of paralyzation of traffic.
To avoid this situation the transporta-
ton force has been laboring night and
day to forward its shipments, yet the
bulk is not diminished for the offerings
of freight equal, and indeed exceed, the
movements.
This is Prosperity with a big P. Per-
haps by and by we shall get so pros
porous that no work of any kind can

ANOTHER,

Another popular theory gone to pot.
People who have been afraid Of typhoid
fever and some other things have cheer
ed themselves with the notion that pol
luted water purifles itself in rivers and
streams within a distance of twenty
miles. Professor Leighton of the geo.
logical survey says that this, like most
things except death and taxes, isn't in
varfably so. He says that while this
has been demonstrated in some rivers it
has failed in others, and that the dist
ance necessary to publication must be
determined by investigation in each
case. There can be no general rule. 1t
is admitted that self-puriflcation goes
on naturally in water but it is not be-
lieved to be wholly due to aeration, for
Professor Leighton's investigation
shows that the process of publication
proceeds much more rapidly in still wa
ter than in swiftly flowing rivers, and
not necessarily in deep water. Dams
and other impediments which check the
flow are a valuable aid in publication,
according to this report.
Let us continue to eat, drink and be as
merry as possible. We are probably as
safe as we have been, which may not

no time off unless they demand it; and
that while society ladies busy them
selves with associations for the benefit
of factory and shop girls it never seems
to occur to them that they might do
even more good by forming associations
to uplift the minds and characters and
brighten the lives of those who daily
minister to the comfort and happiness
of themselves and their families in their
own households.

There has been considerable contro-
versy of late years as to which country
should be conceded the honor of print
ing the first regular newspaper. Claims
have been successfully put forward for
Italy, France, Germany, England and
Holland, and all with some degree of
plausibility, but it appears from recent
researches that neither one Of these is
entitled to the distinction, and that
precedence should be given to Belgium
II has been established by the antigua
ries that certain Abraham Verhoeven,
of Antwerp, obtained, in 1906, from the
Archduke and Duchess Albert and Isa-
belle, the privilege of printing a. news
sheet. AS the first German paper ap-
peared in 1916, at Frankfort; the first
Dutch paper in 1917, the first English
paper the Weekly Gazette, in 1922, and
the first French paper in 1881, 1t would
seem that Antwerp's claims have some
foundation, and that the Belgian city
initiated what has become one of the
most influential factors in modern life
and progress. On the strength Of this
1t Is proposed to hold a great tercen-
tenary celebration in Antwerp some
