great number of house owners in New
York live in flats. Said representative
of this class: mo one with an income of
less than $4,000 a year should try to
live in his own mansion in Manhattan,

worth $500 1 rent 1t for s2250. My fiat

Mr.. REEDS SPEECHES.
Every Word Told, and There Was No

the rumored. prospect of a speech by Mr..
Reed would always crowd the galleries
and bring all the members In from the

ing at the members gallery little after

that l could only squeeze in at the cost
of some discomfort to my neighbors. The
house assembled at u, and the roll call
never seemed so long drawn out. The
spirit of expectancy was intense. Finally
we saw a massive figure begin to rise and
slowly reach its full height. and with
thrill we heard the speaker say: THE
gentleman from Maine" The members of
the house drew nearer, and the gallery
with one accord leaned forward Even
before he spoke a quietly appreciative
smile started somewhere, and was COM
municated from face to race, until 1t
spread over the whole audience AS one
would expect he made no attempt at
dramatic emphasis, either by voice or ges-
ture. His voice was penetrating, al
though not resonant; neither was 1t sharp.
1t had certain nasal quality that, COM
bined with his drawing utterances, had
a peculiar fascination, impossible to de-
scribe. He held his audiences as long as
1t pleased him to do so. for every sem
tence so deliberately uttered was preg-
nant with significance. Every word told,
and there was not a superfluous syllable.
With almost no change of voice or faclaf
expression he would afford us the lxeenest
mental enjoyment as he passed from deli
cate touches of irony to whitening sar-
casm more effective than any possible
form If direct accumulation ALWAYS com
ing home to a profound and concentrated
earnestness so impressive that when ne
had ceased to speak we went away feel
ing satisfied that although there were to
be no more speeches, the last word had
been said.

THREE HISTORIC WOMEN

of her house, the adjustment of the cor
rupt empire, were in the final result the
very greatest blessings that could have
been bestowed on the French people,
but that is not the point of view from
which l wish to look at her. l think
of her, not as the thoughtless and frivo-
lous leader of fashion, but as the woman,
wife and mother, who has passed through
vicissitudes and sorrows, so poignant that
death, even under it's most terrible form,
would have been preferable to the mis-
cry she must have endured. She has
seen almost everything that entered into
her life fade away. All the statesmen
of the empire are dead. The swords
that supported it are rust; the men that
bore them, dust. She alone remains the
fascinating figure on the stage of the
fallen monarchy of the nineteenth CEN

MODERN ADVERTISING.
Sosinn.ug, OF Ths Method of sslII-s
In the East

lsSinn.ng, OF Thls Method of SsiIias
la the East
Fifty years ago ii was considered be-
ieath the dignity Of many su- .Iantial
concerns to advertise, beyond the in
iertlon In the newspapers Of an occa-
,ional business card. Some Of the ex-
1eriences of that time show how re-
emily advertising. as we know 1t, has
developed. A retail hardware house
an Eastern city once found Itself
possessed OF ten times the number OF
.rticles of a certain kind that 1t had
Intended to buy. As they had been
ordered especially for a new hotel, and
we're Of a peculiar design. there seemed
o be no way OF disposing OF them ex-
cept at a merely nominal sum. One
Of the younger men connected with the
concern offered to move them" at a
tair price, provided he be permitted to
advertise. The suggestion encoun-
;ered much opposition. but finally
small sum was set apart to carry 1t
out. The advertisement was drafted
in an attractive way and the people
soon began to buy the new article.
Finally the house was obliged to send
to the manufacturers for more. When
the next seasons trade opened, tho
member of the firm who had most op-
posed the experiment whispered to the
young man that he had better write
out a few notices and put them In
the papers From such beginnings
the advertising practice has come.
Thousands Of dollars are now spent
not only in advertising itself, but in
devlslng clever catch-words, ingenious
phrases and illustrations which will
stick in the memory of the reader, as
well as new general methods. No
doubt money may be wasted in ineffec-
tive advertising or in advertising
worthless goods But on the other
hand, fortunes are made whera there Is
in an article happy union between
publicity and merit

Will They Come to Anadarko?

So
What will be the result of the
race war in Lawton? Will the
whites carry out their threats and
compel the negro population to leave
before Monday next at sunrise?
And if they do, where will the
negro go? Not south, because
Lawton is the terminus of the Rock
Island. Not east or west, because
no railroads run in those directions.
They will come north, north to the
beautiful city of Anadarko. They
are coming already, they will come
by scores next week. Do you want
them here? If so, meet them with
a committee on welcome and receipt
ion, if not meet them with an elo-
quent committee that will persuade
them to believe that Anadarko is
not a good city to light in.

WARNING The

Woman That saved q Tr.in-
load of Human Life.

HerOines commonly figure on some
quiet stage. where there are no re-
pOrters TO chronicle their deeds.
Vow and then. however, a woman's
duty calls her TO acts of conspicuous
courage. Lieut. j. = Brady. L. :. y,
gives 4 thrilling description in the
Youths Companion OF a young and
delicate woman. whose promptneSs
and daring alone saved a train-load
OF human life.
\ half-witted boy who had been
fishing that day came tramping into
the Office. telling Miss Marsh. the
operator. that Peach Greek bridge
had just been washed out. The sie-
was nearly due. and she was abso-
lHtely alone saw for the boy, and he
had not enough to be of any
use The train must be warned.
She must do il. Quick a a fash she
picked up the red light standing
near and started down the track.
The rain was coming down in a per-
feet deluge. and the wind was sweep
ing across the prairies like a hurri-
cane.
Undaunted. the brave little wom-
an. bareheaded. hair flying in the
wind and soaked TO the skin. fought
her way down the track. II was a
mile TO the creek. ordinarily n short
distance; now it seemed almost in
terminable- Presently above the
bowling of the wind she heard the
mad waters as they went boiling aud
tumbling down the channel
At last she was there, standing on
the brink But the train was not vet

road made an abrupt curve round
a small hill She must reach that
curve All the bridge was gone save
rails. stringers and a few shaky
ties
There was only one wav to get
across, so. grasping the lantern be-
tween her teeth she started on her
hands and knees The stringers
swayed back and forth in the wind.
and her frail body. il seemed. would
surely be caught up and blown into
the wild maelstrom of waters below.
Away up the road. borne by the
bowling wind. she heard two long
and two short blasts of the fier's
whistle IS it signaled for a crossing.
Straining every nerve. she at last
succeeded. and. tottering. struggled
up the other side.
FLYING up the track. she reached
the curve. swinging her red light.
The engineer saw the signal and i'm
m~ediately applied the emergency
brakes Then he looked again and
the red light was gone.
But caution is a watchword with
all railroad men. and he stopped.

took his torch and started out TO in
