The japanese wunRndoes not tfacte-
en- her teeth under any mistaken idea
thns it makes her attrocttes she does
It to mako herself unnttractf&e. Her
husband is supposed to know her val
ue. If he doesn't. he divorces her. He
makes no provision Tor her, and she
has no dowry from her family. But a
divorced woman in Japan nearly al
ways marries again. She brings moth
ing but gentle and obedient slave
and takes nothing away with her but
the same valuable commodity.
The reason why lower class women
receive more consideration from their
husbands than their upper class sis
ters is that they are capable of earning
their own hvings, which japanese la
dies are not. So thoroughly is this rec
ogniZed that a lower class woman di-
vorces her husband If she Is not salts
fed, thing which never happens in
the more select circles unless the won-
an Is an heiress, when the husband ts
of as little consideration as lady. It
ts only when she has no brothers that
japanese woman may expect money
from her parents. II they have only a
daughter to leave their money to, tho
sonin-law has to taase her name-and

STORMS IN NORTHWEST.
Trains Unable to Move in North
Dakota. Situation Serious.

st. Paul, Mimi. March 81
Transcontinental traffic by the
Northern route continues to be
blockaded. The Northern Pacifc's
efforts to transfer passengers
across the lake formed by the oy-
erfiow wing of the sloughs near
Mckenzie, n D., has proven fu-
tile, and but little hope is held out
for a resumption of business in
the near future.
Reports from the Great North
ern are to the effect that the trans
continental trains. which haye here
Ptofore been able to get through.
with only a slight delay, are now
held up by floods in the western
portion of North Dakota.
Just where the trouble is has
not been defnathly learned but
telegraphic reports say that the
Mouse River is out of its banks at
Minot, or that line, and that nun
erous bridges have been swept
away. Red River is also at food
tide at Grand Forks, n. D., but so
far as reported, but little damage
has been done there.
The situation of Northern Pa.
cifc is extremely serious. Re
ports from Mckenzie are to the
effect that lake thirty miles long
and two miles wide mas been
formed and theltracks are sixteen
feet under water, or perhaps ens
tlrely washed out.
Efforts to transfer passengers
across this lake have not been sue
cessfuI. The wind has been so
high and the water SO rough that
much danger has attended the at
tempt to transfer passengers in
samll skiffs. A gasoline launch
was put into service yesterday,
but even this large craft was found
inadequate to the task.
1t is thought that an entirely
new track will have to be built
around this gap in the road before
traffic can again be carried on.
