The Frivolous Woman.

Her husband was railroad train con- uuctor. She was a. woman of society," The height of his ambition was to be master of trains, assistant superintendent of a branch road or superintendent. Her ambition was to become president of the and parties. to ride in automobiles.
 The husbands train invariably came fin late and he invariably came home to dinner at the club hour. The home was deserted the meats and the breads were cold in the side-board and he would start out on his night run with cold lunch and a keen appetite.
 His trousers had needed few mends, a few buttons were off. His laundry had come in but was locked in her room. His bill at the barber shop was 60 cents while if he could have gotten into the room 1t would have cost nothing to make his toilet.
 And it came to pass that when the hus- band was away from home she was stricken with fever, perhaps it was ma laria, or typhoid or it could have been of the yellow type-he never inquired; i; She fingered two days and passed beyond the earthly sphere.
 He came home with steady tread and attended the funeral at the swell church.
 Flowers were strewn on the route of the burial procession by the women of soci- ety and her name was recorded in the records of the clubs.
 The husband accepted the sympathy of sympathizers and in a few weeks took unto himself another wife.
 From then until now his dinner was smoking and waiting, his laundry ready and his trousers mended-and the con- ductor and his wife are happy.
 Moral-There is something to be gained by every change.

A Treatise on New York.

A new magazine called "The New Met ropolitan." edited by John Kendrick Bangs, has been launched into the jour nalistic world. It announces Its chief aim and purpose to treat of New York and other cities of modern times, enlighten- ing the people of remote parts of the country and pointing out to the more met ropolitan classes the superiorities and in- feriorities of the various phases of met ropolitan life without departing in any way from the standards or scope which are required for the making of a first class magazine of general human inter est"
 In its salutatory The New Metropolitan has the following:
 But most of all shall it be our mission Co depict the human side of metropolitan life. It is of people, of men, women and children that we intend most often to speak, for these are so much the soul of the city as to constitute its essence. They are the city. and without them and their joys and their miseries, their toilings and their playings, even so majestic mate rial thing as New York has come to be, would be an insensate clod, a bit of life less clay unworthy of a moments thought. The hurly-burly, the business activity and the swirl of society in the large cities are known to all. but underneath the thing that appears to be New York is another, 1n which notes of tenderness, of pathos, of humor and of tragedy are sounded, and the vibrations of these will find a chord ko strike upon in our pages"

 He asked her for kiss. His eyes were full of yearning, Her pretty cheeks were burning His admiration earning As quickly from him turning. She proudly said him, Nay" But, ah! the minutes rushing.

After the costly experience the DEM
ocratic party had with the Bucklin
Australasian tax amendment last fall
there is little doubt it will be happy
to have the measure unloaded on the
republicans. That it should ba en-
tailed to this district, however, is the
rub. Senator DeLong has re- intro
duced it in the senate. This was done
by request or through courtesy. no
doubt, but his name and party now
stand committed to the ''hoodoo"
thing as closely as ever did the demo-
cratic parry. If turn about is fair
play. the republicans should be treat
ed to the same dose next election as
the deomcrats were at the last. We
do not anticipate that Senator DeLong
will make single tax his sole legisla-
tive child. The virus has not attack.

expect a passing thought for the prac-
tical needs of the district which elect

More About
EmbcZZlement Case.

The sheriff found two Meas county
warrants on the person of ]. W. .Cowles
who was arretsed last Saturday after
noon on the charge of embezzlement.
The facts seemed to indicate that these
had been forged by the prisoner j.
hotel, who swore out the warrant for
Cowles' arrest. had this to say about
the whole matter. this morning:
''On October End. 1 first saw Cow.
les. He lodged in my house that
night. He left early next morning
without paying me for his bed. He
returned on the 10Th Of December and
apologized for his negligence. He
said that he would settle later. From
that day until last Saturday he slept
and ate here most of the time.
never received one cent from him In
addition, I loaned him three dollars
in cash which he did not return
During the holidays he got work with
W. F. White. oiBut he took to drink
ing and did not hold his job. Some
ten davs ago. Cowles fell in with one
G d Robinson who was selling charts
to the outlying schools of the county.
l became interested and bought three
of the charts outright with the under
standing that Cowles was to take them
out and sell them dividing the profits
with me. Cowles sold one of these
charts to school in Plateau Valley
He received for it the sum of $15.
He reQu ested the school board to make
the warrant out payable to him. This
was contrary to our agreement. In
stead of coming to me with the
money, Cowles cashed the warrant
down town and proceeded to get
drunk. 1t was then that caused his
arrest.
He. claimed to have come here from
El Paso. Texas where he asys he has
brothers. -
Cowles will have his hearing before
Justice Byers at 3 o. clock tomorrow
afternoon.
