WOMEN SH0ULOI
POP QUESTION
So Claims Dr. Croft of Webster
Grove, Missouri.
MAKE HAPPIER MARRIAGES

St. Louis, Jan. B Rev. DR.
Charles Croft, pastor of the First
Congregational church at Webster
Grove, near nere, created sensa-
tion this morning by Il, published
interview in which he insists in
the Interests of good morals and
common sense that woman should
pop the question to the man whom
she loves as well as the man pro-
pounding the question to the
woman he adores. He states that
there are about 300 marriageable
women who attended his church
and that only twelve of them were
married the past year, when, in
his judgement, there should have
been fifty. Mr.. Croft intends from
now on to encourage women to ask
the man she loves for his hand in
marriage, and believes that there
will be more happy marriages as
the result Timidity in women
should not prevent them from ask
ing the men they love to marry.

FIGHT ON IN EARNEST.
Result of Tomorrow Nights Cau-
Gus Very important.

Colum bus. Ohio, Jan. 3-The
bitter fight for political supremacy
in the Legislature between the
Foraker and Hanna forces has
reached an interesting point. Price
represents the Foraker faction and
McKinnon the Hama faction. In
the caucus tomorrow night both
sides today claim they will con
troll. A careful poll of the mem
bers shows there is not two votes
to spare either way, and the result
means much to the winner o.
loser, as the winner will direct the
republican political situation ia
Ohio the next three years. 1t is
thought that Foraker will be re-
elected no matter which faction
controls the caucus

Just at this time of the year
many business men feel that they
must cut down their expenses -
must economize and about the
first thing they do is to discontinue
advertising in the home p ,per.
This is wrong conclusion Cut
down your expenses some other
way; don't cut your own throats
by withdrawing your support from
the local papers, for your paper is

you to enjoy good patronage

Hobart's protege, John w. Griggs,

HAVE FOUND RELIC OF STONE AGE
Flint Dagger Deeply Embedded in
SAUL Of q Horse.

rAnC Dakger Deeply Embedded in
SAUL Of Horse.
In Sweden has been found a very
curious relic of the stone age. It is
the skull of a horse, and it was dis
covered by J. A. Sjogren, an archae-
ologist, in the mud of the Ulitorpsa,
near Ingelstad.
Gunner Anderson, describing the
relic, which is now in the museum at
Ystad, says:
lat first it was thought to be the
skull Of a deer, but Professors Leche
and Lundgren, after careful exami-
nation, proved that it was that of a
tWo-year-old horse. Compared with
the skull of a modern horse it is I'M
usually large, but what makes it
chiefly notable is the fact that a flint
dagger was stuck in it when it was
found. The dagger was broken off,
and its original length, as may be in
ferred from several specimens of a
similar weapon in the museum at
Stockholm, could not have exceeded
twenty centimeters, Hence it could
never have formed part of lance.
That the, dagger was broken off at
the moment when it was driven into
the skull is as certain as that it dates
back to the stone, or so-called neo-
lithic age. The man who thrust It
into the skull knew his business, for
the weapon is fixed exactly in the su-
turC between the nOnns and Tho
crown, and lit was driven with such
force that it did not leave the slight
est mark on the outside. Indeed it is
fixed so firmly that it would require
a good deal of strength to draw it out.
All the scientists who have examined
it say that it would be hardly possible
even for an unusually strong man
to drive a weapon of this kind with
his hand into a hdrse's SKULL

Il Being Demolished.

Z Last week workmen began tearing
down the old De Lancey house, on
Heathcote Hill, near Mamaroneck, N.
Y. The property had been sold in
partition proceedings, and had passed
out OF the possession of the last OF
the De Lancey heirs. a.
The house was built in 1892 on q
high knoll overlooking the inlet, and
on the site Of a brick. house erected in
1897 and burned just before the Revo-
lutionary war. The original house,
known as Heathcote Manor, was &C.
cupied by Col. William Heathcote, an
early settler and slave owner. The
house was nearly, surrounded, it is
said, by the quarters occupied by Col
Heathcote's slaves. After the death
Lancey, one of the heirs, bought the
interests Of his cousins. De Lancey
had been captain in the British
army, but in 1889 he resigned his COM
mission and went to Mamaroneck.
He erected the house now being de-
molished, and lived there with his
family until his death.
