THEY ARE SATISFIED,
danish West Indians Have No Desire
for a Change

Berlin. Aug. 31.-The National Zietung
says the Danish West Indian commits
sion is said to have reported as follows
to Finance Minister Hage:
1.-The population of the islands is sat
isfed to remain under Danish rule. The
whites hope from the newly awakened
interest Of Denmark in the islands an
improvement of economic conditions
and the fostering of civilizing influ-
ences. The administration of the
islands was found to be impractical and
expensive, and the conditions entirely
unsatisfactory"
1T is believed" says the National
Zietung, that the commission will re-
port in favor of reducing the military
establishment on the islands and re-
organizing the gedarmerie on modern
lines.

Ola Maids and Climate.

The uncnlightened frequently, make
the mistake Of thinking that lack Of OPP
portunity is responsible FOR the exist
ence of single women. but l la most
of it to climate. The New England eli
mate is not conducive to matrimOIy
or even loveIaaking. And even after
the crucial moment has passed and the
single woman has drifted from girl
hood to spinsterhOod, a cold climate,
raw winds, chill rains and SHOW tend
to increase the loneliness of It. There
may be old maids in the south, but
never heard of them being called by
that name. l have known some single
women, schoolteachers. anywhere from
seventeen to fifty. and some Of their
grown boy pupils were c.ernally and
perennially in love with them. A sin
gle woman who has made up her mind
not to marry has a hard tine to Keep
her resolution in the south. for she IL
always assaulted to break it. The very
climate hreathes love. All. there it is:

A Legend About Cats.

. The ancient Greeks thought that all
creatures except cats had souls and
that that animal lost it's soul through a
bargain made between a bridge arcHi,
tect and the devil. The architect had
besought the devil to get his help in
constructing an exceedingly dangerous
bridge structure. and his Satanic mai
esty only consented to lend aid on con-
dition that the first creature to cross it
should lose it's soul.
81 This was agreed upon, the bridge
finished in due time and the devil sent
to the opposite side to await his prey!
The shrewd architect took good care to
send cat over before any human be-
ing was allowed to cross! On learnihg
off, the bargain ;the cat recrossed It pc
bridge and scratched the architect
eyes out. .,...'.,.,. =
