A woman always admires a man
who can put on a screen door, CT
chop down a tree If 1t happens to
spoil the view from her favorite
window, even If the man happens
to be the President OF something
ard could hire somebody to do It a
thousand times over. But women
are not the only ones with whom
ability to perform anything chal'
lenge admiration. There are too
many of both sexes, who, outside
of some particular sphere, are as
helpless as babes.-or to be more
exact, they think they are, for In
many cases the helplessness Is only
imaginary. The woman who ad-
mires a man who can put on
screen door, should bear In mind
that the same man admires the
woman who can hang a picture, fix
q curtain or carry home from the
store small purchase. Helpless
ness may call forth pity or sympa'
thy, but a Willingness to do or try
is always admirable.

Services In memory OF the late

afternoon at two o'clock, at his late
residence on Main street. Many
relatives and friends gathered to

beautiful floral offerings were sent

which the brother was held and at
the same time helping to alleviate
the sorrow and pangs of death.
The services were brief and sim
pie, according to the rites OF the
Presbyterian church, of which the
deceased was a member. Lead

Jeferles or Fitz? This question

scheduled for Friday night July as
of course. like horse and elec'
tious, prize6ghts are never de-
cided until the last minute of the
fray, but In the present instance
there seems to be no reasonable
chance of victory for the Cornish
man. ci;zsimmons Is a clever box
.er, a determined slayer and a phe'
uomenally hard hitter, bat the
giant Jim Jeffries Is Gibralter OF
pugilist that neither Fitzimmons
nor any other heavyweight
can successfully storm. Fitz
will enter the rirg OF the
San Francisco Athletic club at
about 40 pounds. JEFF will carry
with him about 2IS pounds of we'll
trained avoirdupois, and. having
had the experience In fight with
the long, lean Bob, should have no
feor &C m the YeSr11f
Jefries should win inside of fifteen
rounds. Fitz Is an old man now,
and, despite his remarkably pre-
served stamina and physique, he Is
not likely to stay longer than that.
Naturally Bob's unexcelled ring
generalship will serve to prolong
the battle, but JEFF has made a de-
liberate study of his rivals style
and will be prepared for almost
anything that may occur.

PHILIPPINE CURRENCY
Congress Now Wrestling With a
Difficult Subject.

Washington. Dec. 19.-The indications
are that the solution of the Philippine
currency problem will be found by the
committees of the two houses along the
line Of establishing the gold standard for
the islands. and giving them silver
currency suited to their needs with power
vested in the Philippine civil government
to maintain the parity Of the two metals
to prevent further loss through the con-
slant depreciation Of silver. So. y :. T..
There is a strong sentiment among men
OF all parties in congress favorable to
extending the money Of the United States
to the Philippines, as was done in the
case of Porto Rico. The objection to this
is that the, people of the islands would
suffer loss and trouble would follow from
an effort to establish a dollar there of
the same size as the Mexican dollar, but
which on the gold standard is made just
double the value Of the Mexican dollar.
The committees of the two houses will
probably soon make reports favorable to
standard gold peso for the islands of
just half the size of the United States gold
standard dollar, sand base all the silver
currency on gold. coming only the silver
money for use in the islands. Under
this plan, it is believed. the best results
would be secured, as there would be notfl-
ing of tfels...tWo for one" system, except
in the exchange of the Philippine money
for United States gold coins. S

CHEERS FOR DR.. L0RENZ
Another Wonderful Operation on a
Club Footed Girl in
New York.

New York, Dec. 19.--'rhe latest clinic
held by DR.. Lorenz in this city was en-
tirely successful in it's results. So great
was the crowd Of parents with crippled
children present that half a score of. po-
Iicemen had to be called to keep order
In the halls and corridors of the Cornell
university medical college in which insti-
tuition the opera tons were performed.
Three Of the patients treated were suffer-
ers from congenital dislocation Of the hip,
and the fourth operation was upon little
girl both CT whose feet We're dubbed.
This case DR.. Lorenz described as the
worst he had seen in a child. When the
stretching and kneading of the feet was
over the doctor raised the child in his
hands and set her on her feet With the
mere. pressure Of his finger and thumb
he set both feet fat and straight, and
cheer after cheer broke out as the COM
plete skill of the operation was demon
