A GIRLS PROBLEM.
How to Feed Herself when Running

II am a stenographer!" That statement
brings Up q picture OF long hours Of tiresome

A young lady In Dayton. Ohio. writes:
Some time ago l was a stenographer in a
large city retail store and having the re-
sponslbility OF the once work resting
largely upon me my health began gradually
to decline, and l stood facing the dlhicuIt

trouble; l became dyspeptic and nervous and
suffered with insomnia and restlessness at

fishing drink and a second dish Was taken at

orrhage OF the brain. the inevitable result
Of which was death. The doctor stated
that the fatal blow could not have been
dealt With a fist, nor was II probable that
II was, the result Of a club, but o.! some
semi solid substance. In his judgment the
most probable theory was that the fracture
had been caused by a kick. All his kcien-
tifc investigation went TO substautiate this
theory. The doctor gave 1t as his opinion,
however, that this fatal fracture was the
result OF more than one blow. He opposed
the theory that II was produced with a
club. as contact OF two solid substances
produced an incised wound and the injury
which caused CaldwelIs death was not Of
that character. Such an injury might have
been caused by a fall on a semi-solid sub
stance, said the doctor.
Aside from the fatal injury DR.. Lavender
stated that Caldwell bore a incised wound
on the forehead. Just above the right eye,
deep tissue bruises over the left temple
discoloration OF the right eye aud a sllEht
abrasion on the chin. None Of the Injuries
other than the one in the back OF the head
he said, could have produced death. He be.
heved that Caldwell ought to have survived
and In fact did survive his injuries about
an hour. He was satisfied that the victim
died In an unconscious state. ,

Novel Emergency for schools.

SIOUX CITY, Ia. Sept. 15.-(Special.)C
The school board here is face to face with
an emergency for which the hard coal fam
inc is responsible. Eighteen of the school
buildings in the city are heated wholly or
in part by hard coal furnaces or hard coal
stoves. The possibility of a scarcity of
the article had not occurred to the d.
rectors until the past few days, and now
they are busily engaged trying to solve
the problem Of heating the school houses.
Secretary Chase states that many of the
furnaces in the building canno be success
fully used for any other material than
hard coal, and for that reason soft coal,
coke and kindred articles will be of little
use, as they were constructed for hard coal
exclusively.
