Education and Ugliness.

Does the higher education tend to
lessen the physical beauty of women?
A certain physician has stirred up a
hornets nest about his head by de-
claring that it does He points to the
fact that many of the most advanced
women have been the ugliest, and he
further argues that the women who
distinguish themselves by their intel

A Sickbed BPnch.

One of the most useful contrivances
the home tinker can make is a little
bench about a foot wide and three feet
long, supported on end pieces about ten
inches high. 1t will be found the
greatest comfort when placed across
the lap of sick person in bed to rest
the tray of dishes upon, taking the
weight from the limbs SO that one may
move without upsetting the food.
Paint it red, so that it will contrast
cheerfully with the napery and china.
Nothing that requires so little work
and trouble as this is could give the
satisfaction it does when in use.

Text Of the Report Of the Committee
on Resolutions.
1--WE. the committee on resolutions,
beg leave to recommend that the fol.
lowing report be adopted and forward
ed to Theodore Roosevelt, president OF
the United States of America:
Dear Sir: We, the representatives
of the employees of the various coal
companies engaged in operating mines
in the anthracite caal fields of Penn.
sylvania, in convention assembled, hav.
ing under consideration your telegram
of Oct. 15, 1902, addressed to John
Mitchell, president of the United Mine
Workers of America, which reads as
follows:
"I have appointed as commission.
ers Brigadier General John II. Wilson,
E. w. Parker, Judge George Gray, E.
r. Clark. Thomas H. Watkins, Bishop
J. L. Spalding, with Carroll D. Wright
as recorder. These names are accept.
ed by the operators and now earnest
ly ask and urge that the miners like
wise accept this commission. It is a
matter Of vital concern to all our peo-
pie, especially to those in our great
cities, who are least we'll off, that the
mining of coal should be resumed with
out a moments unnecessary delay
I'VE have decided to accept the
proposition therein embodied and sub
NIT all questions at issue between the
operators and mine workers of the an
thracite coal regions for readjustment
to the commission whicn you have
named.
"In pursuance of that decision we
shall report for work on Thursday
morning, Oct. %, in the positions and
working places occupied by us prior
to the Inauguration of the strike.
I'VE have authorized John Mitchell,
president of the United Mine Workers
bf America, with such assistance as he
may select, to represent us in all hear
ings before the committee"

Reverse In somaIiIand May Prove Sc
rious to the British Force.
London. Oct. 20.-The severe re-
verse in Somaliland places the small
British force there. of about 5000
men of doubtful reliability, In an ex-
ceedingly perilous situation.
Since the beginning of Colonel
Swayne's second campaign against the
Mullah last May little has been heard
of the expedition. The present dis
patches seem to show that he was re-
treating from the Italian frontier
northward when the Mullah attacked
him at Erego. Last December the
Mullah was reported to have about
$4,000 men, mostly mounted, large
percentage of whom were armed with
rifles; it is possible that he now COM
mands about $4,000 men. With this
large force harassing him, Colonel
Swayne has to retreat to Bohotle, $50
miles, and probably still 100 miles
further, to Burao, the principal British
frontier post.
Colonel Swayne is accompanied by
twenty white officers and has with him
some Maxim guns and some seven
Founders.
It was announced by Lord Lans-
downe, foreign secretary, in parlia-
ment last summer, that the Italians
were cooperating with Colonel Swayne,
but, as the dispatch made public does
not mention Italian help, it is supposed
that some local difficulty was found IN
arranging for the cooperation.

Dillon, M. p, for East Mayo, and

Mr.. Redmond, in speaking of the
present condition in Ireland and Of
matters relating to the United Irish
league, said:
"The United Irish league Is the rul-
ing power in Ireland today, as truly as
ever the Land league was. The gov
ernment played into our hands by the
coercion policy and now the country
is aroused.
1--WE are on the eve of settlement
of the Irish land question and after
that national self-government will
speedily come to Ireland
''The Irish party now in the house of
commons is the only real opposition in
the English parliament and l believe
the day is near at hand when it will
have the controlling influence in Great
Britain.
Hundreds of Irishmen are imprs-
oned under the coercion act without
receiving any trial by jury. But no.
body cares for Imprisonment under
these circumstances. The more the
people are attacked the higher their
spirits rise"

Flax Tow Industry,

Manager Atkinson of the By.Prod-

turned from the East, where he saw
the results of the work in flax tow.
The company owns four mills in this
state and the flax straw is converted
into tow and then shipped to Niagara
Falls, where it is changed into pulp.
This pulp is being sent out to the lead
ing manufacturers of letter paper,
bank notes and material of that ma

and very adhesive and is making a
good impression. Mr.. Atkinson thinks
the plant will be able to handle all

One Claim Lost bv MARRIAGE,

James r. Hollingsworth and Mary
J. Glover had adjoining claims in La
Moure county, near Edgcrley They
had a house which had been built
across the section line and was oc.
cupied jointly by the homesteaders.
Before Miss Glover proved up on her
homestead she and Hollingsworth
were married. F. w. Rasmussen con.
tested the Glover claim and has just
succeeded in having the Edgerley land
Office decide in his favor. The case
will be carried up. The officials held
that either Hollingsworth or Miss
Glover should have proved up before
the marriage and the other claim could
then have been legally held.
