 ST. LOUIS. Feb. 7.-The stupendoua interests involved in the Missouri, Kan sas and Texas settlement have not been fully realized. Besides affecting the four other southwest roads, the Missou- ri Pacific, Iron Mountain, the Frisco and the Cotton Belt, it will be the key note to the settlement of wage griev- ances on every road west of the Missis- sippi river. Committees are now wait ing at the headquarters of the Burling- ton. the Great Northern and all tha other western and northern roads to follow the action in St. Louis.

seek master Hugh" he said, 'and follow
his fortunes" And that very day he de-
parted. Rose was deeply affected when
she heard of this resolution. She longed
to see her father, and confide to him all
the trouble she had SO lately endured
all that had been on her mind concerning
Robin; but, with further thought, she
decided that it was better to retain her
vexation and trouble within her own
breast until she had confessed all to the
marquis; for now she resolved to delay
that confession no longer.
And so Jacques went, and Rose only
gave him a thousand loving messages for
her father, and bade him tell Of her ad-
venture, and her final safety, and Of the
death of the villain Gasparde. Nothing
of all her sorrow did she desire her father
to know yet. He must think of her only
as happy and content.
The next day there was gathering OF
stout and sturdy men from far and near,
armed with serviceable weapons; and the
forest was searched, and the robbers'
cave discovered place never known tiu
then by the dwelers in that region. But
the brIgands had fed-their chief no long
er with them; and the cavern was empty
deserted. The robbers never returned
to It, 1t is probable that the horde broke
up, and the men went in various direc
tions to gain an unlawful living else
where; but they never were heard o.
again. Raimonde went to Italy. ant

This authority says that the sallow

between rising ana retiring. but not

water drunk must not be too cold.
Ice water does not help the cause Of
beauty. Cool spring water, II 1t Is to

The drinking Of too little water he
believes to be the cause Of many Ills.

Thief Caught by Turtles,

The pickpocket who tried to pinch"
likely looking mans pocketbook and
found his fingers In the grasp Of two
swapping turtles was a japanese. A
native traveller in Japan had bought
the turtles, and, being afraid that he
would be charged heavily for their
transportation as live animals on the
train, he placed them in a small por-
table trunk which he carried. When
he got on the train he held the trunk so
carefully under his arm that q thief
who was in the crowd was sure the
man had something valuable in the box.
So he got into the same car and took
an adjoining seat. Taking the first op-
portunity he cut q small hole In the
trunk with a sharp knife and slipped
In his hand.
About this time the turtles conclud-
ed that there was something doing
and they took hold Of his fingers in q
hearty way. Grittlng his teeth, the
thief tried to withdraw his hand. but
he couldn't. Then he howled and the
owner of the trunk seized him and
turned him over to the train people
who at the next station gave him to q
policeman. The incident, however
wasn't closed until the traveller was
punished for violation Of the railway
regulations.

WOMEN IN POLAND.
They Are Renowned for Beauty and
Terribly Patriotic.

They Are Renowned for Beauty and
Terribly Patriotic.
Polish women are renowned for their
beauty, for the perfection OF their
hands and the smallness Of their feet.
They place the fineness Of the hands
above all other charms. Il regard my
hands, not my face" said one, and 1t
is reported in Warsaw that the Vienna
shoe dealers keep a separate case OF
shoes for the delicate feet Of their Po-
lish customers.
Polish ladies' maintain that when
they shop in Vienna and show their
small feet with the high instep to be
fitted. the tradesmen exclaim, "Ah.
those are Polish feet!'
But their pleasure in this distinction
is not so much a matter OF personal
vanity as of satisfaction in the superb
ority of anything belonging to their
country. For they are fervidly patri-
otic. They adore their country and
hate her tyrant, Russia.
The lady of position rises between
II and II in the forenoon, and goes to
bed at 4 o'clock the next morning. She
drives from one visit to another, but
in reality she is laboring all day for
public interests. Everything, the
founding of a library, a hospital, g
sewing school. is made to strengthen
the Polish cause. Four ladies do moi
meet on a charity committee, sayi
George Brandes, without taking some
measure, under that innocent pretext
for the national benefit.
As a consequence Of this charm ant
spirit, the women OF Poland receive
from the men a courtesy amounting L
homage. The greatest consideration
for them is a commonplace of dali,
life. Men always rise in a tram-car t

YOUNG INVENTORS.


Useful Discoveries Made by Children
In Their Play.
Many cases are reported where mere
children have made discoveries in their
youthful diversions which have ex.
erted a wonderful influence on Inn
portant Industries in their delevop-

with some o8 their fathers glasses In

Of the glasses together they peeped
through them and were exceedingly
astonished to see the weathercock OF
neighboring steeple brought, SEEM
ingly, within short distance Of their
eyes. They were very naturally puz-
zled. and called their father to see the
strange sight. He was no less sur
prlsed than the children had been. He
conceived the idea that he might utilize
this strange feature in the construction
of a curious toy which would be pro-
ductive Of both wonder and amuse-
ment among his friends. He did SO,
and Calico, hearing Of this toy that
was said to make distant things appear
