 In this same house there is a rule that no cooking may be done by the tenants. The apartments were not fitted for housekeeping, and an appli cant for suite was warned because she frankly admitted that she made tea for herself every afternoon.
 We cannot permit it, madam" in- sisted the agent, and the applicant yielded to the point and went without her cup of tea or ordered it up at the extravagant rates from the restaurant on the ground floor.
 Her troubles were not at an end. however. One day a man in the uni 1 form of the house knocked at her door. He insisted that he smelled the odor of naphtha and was entitled to investigate, for the rules of the house never per- mitted the occupants to clean their own gloves.
 1 T am not cleaning my own gloves, resentfully answered the resident. "l am taking a spot out of my new even- ing dress" and she showed her gown and a bit of cloth and a minute bottle of benzine. She was obliged to give up the task and send her frock to 2 professional to remove a dab of ice cream grease no bigger than the thuml nail

 One woman had given up a hand some flat and moved to the country al on account of a pumpkin pie.

TAnING WYATT EARp
Done at Dawson by a Five-Foot
 Cockney Policeman.

Since Wyatt Earp, once famous as a gun fighter in Arizona and California, went up into the Klondike very little world. The last exploit that brought him into prominence was his decision in the Sharkey- -Fitzsimmons prizefgic { in San Francisco, when he gave the fight to Sharkey on an alleged foul. For some years before that ne had been e>an> orderly citizen for one of his reputation as gun fighter.
 From the stories that have driftet! down from the Klondike in the last few weeks, it appears that Earp ha re- sumed a favorite trick of his, known in the West as shooting up the town. He was much addicted to it in the old law1ess days of Arizona and California.
 Earp was never a man who could easily be tanned, consequently a story told of his suppression a few weeks ago by a diminutive cockney member of the Canada mounted police will be interesting to some of his friends here.
 .Earp drifted into Dawson several months ago full of a determination to get actiop," said a San Francisco mar to some of Earp's old Western friends the other night. Civilization, police men and progress generally knocked out Earp's gun fighting game in the states some years ago, and, like Bat the old days, he had been quite orderly and we'll behaved for some years.
 But when he got to Dawson he found

HANK MONKS FAMOUS DRIVE
Greeley's Stage Coach Ride Vividly Recalled by Worlds Fair Exhibit.

St. Louis-Hank Monk. the stage driver of the pioneer days in the far west was immortalized by Mark Twain in his "Roughing It." The stage coach in which Hank Monk got Horace Greeley to Placerville lon time,' and the gold watch that was presented to the intrepid Jehu because of his record breaking trip will be among the in teresting curios at the worlds fair, St. Louis in 1904.
 MT. J. A. Warrington. of Carson City, Nevada's executive commissioner to the worlds fair, was in St. Louis few days ago and told Charles M. Reeves. secretary of the states and territorial exhibits committee, that Nevada would exhibit among other in- teresting things, these famous Hank Monk relics.
 Hank Monk, as will be remembered by everyone who has read Mark Twain's first famous book "Roughins It. was the driver who was in charge of the stage that carried Horace Greeley into Placerville one evening in the latter sixties. MT. Greeley was booked to deliver an address in that mining village at : o'clock. The trip was tedious and the great editor be- gan to fear that he would not reach Placerville in time to keep his engage ment. He leaned out Of the stage win | dow and asked the driver, Hank Monk if he could not entice a little more 1 speed from the horses.
 The imperturable driver leaned down and replied:
 "Keep your seat, Horace. I'll get you | there on time."
 How Hank kept his word is graphic | ally recorded by MT. Clemens. Prob ably no trip over the mountains was | ever made at such break-neck speed.
 The distinguished passenger was toss cd around in the bounding stage coach like corn In a pepper and there were those who declared that MT. Greeley s head was forced through the roof

UNCONSCIOUS MOVEMENTS.

Slit a match at the end which has no phosphorus on it and cut another one on the slant. Place one within the other so as to form an acute angle, and bend them both slightly. Put the joined matches astride the blade of knife held in your hand. leaning your hand heavily upon inc table. Be careful to allow the phosphorous ends only lightly to touch the table. but on no account move them away from the surface. To your astonishment the matches will be- gin to march along the blade. This IS due to the unconscious movements of your hand. movements invisible both to yourself and to spectators. Make the experiment more attractive by
 painting d piece of paper to represent a man and attaching it to the matches.

THE NEW ARMY MULE.
The Zebrule. Striped Like a Flag, Is
 His Successor.

Germany is about to strike another blow at a thriving American industry, and incidentally work an innovation ia the equipment for modern warfare. Consular reports from Frankfort now on file in the state department tell the story, which is to the effect that ardent scientists in the employ of the kaiser's general staff have evolved a substitute for the American mule.
 Let Missouri, whose long -eared plod- ding quadrupeds have been the stand ard of the world, weep bitter tears. Her idol is about to fall. The mule that has been her joy and pride and has been responsible for q large increase "a the vocabulary of profanity, will nu longer plod along in the van of Con- tinental conquerers. Germany has ever evolved a new animal. which, like the mule, is a hybrid. It is called the ze- brula, and is d combination of the horse and African zebra.
 Various reasons are assigned for tl.e substitution of the Zebrula. They are handy. cheap, plentiful, and can be used especially in Africa, where hereto fore the mule has been the all conquer ing hero. The consular reports do not say so, but it is rumored that the scien- lists who have evolved the zebrula have worked a scheme to play on German patriotism to help them carry out theil full purpose.
 I The zebra, as everyone who has beer to the circus knows, is beautifully striped. By process of evolution thes: stripes have been made to evolve them selves in curious forms, SO that the | herd of zebrulas which are now 1T
 training for army service are all strip ed like the German flag.
 The zebrula farm will soon be prepar- ed to turn out for all nations. striped SO as to harmonize with the nationa | emblem. The new army equipment vii have it's advantages and may lead tt new and untold deeds of herOism. Re 1 ports will come of the troops. wheI

TYRANN1Es OF FLAT LIFE.
Why People Fly From Fashionable
 Apartments to Homes.

The iron-clad rules and regulations enforced by special sleuth employed by the management drive many womeI, out or aR apartment house existence into the pursuit of happiness under ] roof of their own, says an exchange. These lron-clad rules prevail in apart ment houses where the rents are high and the appointments and location all that the most luxurious could desire.
 They are rules evolved and enforced for the good of the user and the protec- tion of the tenants. says the manager. and most of the residents obey them without much open grumbIing or re- bcIlion because of the sleuth who is en- gagged to look after their enforcement.
 In most of the smart flat buildings. pets. other than canary birds. are not. permitted and parrot. even if caged

THE QUEEN so WILLS.
Children Welcomed at Social Functions
 in London.

During the season that is now on the wane a great feature has been made of the presence of children at great so- cial functions, and several splendid en- tertainments have been arranged solely for their benefit.
 Lady Brooke has been seen every where this year with her lovely boy Master Maynard Greville, and at the vast number of weddings that have taken place there have been more baby bridesmaids and pages than there ever were before.
 Their majesties, the king and queen, and the Prince and Princess of Wales, who are foremost in encouraging the wise educational movement of develop ing the tastes and inclinations of the young by allowing them to be the com panions of their elders, base all the treats given to the little princess and princes of the royal house upon sys- tenn of rewards. Their lessons are made matter of first importance, and are never interrupted, but when the school books are put away they are encour- aged to find happiness in play and in the pleasures that have been devised for them.
 The Princess of Wales sets every mother the best possible example by giving her children the very simplest clothing, and encourages them to like old-fashioned homely toys that do not break the moment they are touched. as do elaborate mechanical ones. At Marl- borough house the little ones have had wooden see-saw out on the lawn this summer, and big carpets have been spread on the green sward with tables and chairs upon them, to play part in the open air life of these illustrious children.
 Fashion has put an end to the strain ed relationship that used to exist be- | tween parents and their children, an6 has brought to final chapter the dis nal story of wealthy children whosc l mothers, immersed in a ceaseless roun6 of gayety. were utter strangers te them. For King Baby has come into his own now, and is as potent a power | in the abode of princes as he is in tho villa residence, where, because migh | is right, he rules by the force of his own lusty lungs.-London Daily Mail
