Every second Monday through the sum-
mer season a carload of children are car
ried from St. Louis to a niche in the Ozark
foothills four miles from Eureka. where,
at the Children's Industrial Farm, they en-
joy the unalloyed pleasure of two weeks
freedom in the open air. with the purest of
food and the sweetest of milk for diet.
Recruited as they are from the less for
tunate class, many of these little ones for
the first time taste the sweetness of the
great world in which they live and learn
that the high brick walls and stuffy streets
of large city do not constitute the entire
earth.
Two weeks in the countryside real coun-
try, where the fields are green and dotted
with flowers implanted by man. and where
the trees are not set in distracting rows
Two weeks of freedom and pleasure that
fill every wakefuI moment and linger at
night in dreams.
The when at last their furlough is over
and they return 10 the city to make way
for another consignment OF children, the
little bodies. burdened with flowers, turtles,
lizards or other treasures that can be
found in the country. are Strengthened in
limb and mind and are better able to meet
the distractions of their everyday life.
CHILDREN TAGGED

For the last six years the association that
provides the means has maintained a place
where children from the congested districts
OF the city get outing that their moro
fortunate brothers and sisters would envy.
The first crowd of the season were taken
from st. Louis Monday morning last With
rag on coat or dress. they were met at
Union Station by the representatives of the
association and for two weeks they will be

which, If they prove successful, will intro
duce new factor in telegraphy. The in
ventor is Giuseppe Musso. revenue con-
troller of the Province of Genoa, Italy, and
a graduate Of the University Of Genoa. By
his invention message is sent from the
keyboard of q typewriter without the use OF
a telegraph transmitter. and is received by
another typewriter, which prints the mes

stations will be established throughout the

termined. Messages will be sent by wire
and by wireless system as well. The in,
ventor. Giuseppe Musso. has experimental

invention was success. The tests here
will be on a more elaborate scale.
The invention may be said to be develop

secret of the use Of these parts of type

MANY have imputed to japanese

As her home is therefore her world,
it is only natural that it has become
the inherent instinct of the Japanese
women to lavish the greatest love

and to expend much time and

THERE IS NO SPORT IN IT.
Northern Indians Do Not Take Pleas-
IRE in Securing VenisOn for
Their Larders.

Anew Yorker who lives a small frac-
ton of the time in the city, being usu-
ally long distances away in pursuit OF
game, tells of the method pursued by
the Indians of British Columbia in TAX
ing deer, says the New York Tribune.
They have evolved a system, this hunts
man says. that shows practical skill
and sympathy and knowledge of nat
ural conditions. He says:
1.-The Indians, to begin with, do not
hunt deer for the pleasure of hunting.
They go for deer as ahousekeeper goes
to market for beef. And what's more:
in British Columbia, at any rate, they
don't go often. Salmon are plentiful
in the waters and are easily caught.
So, why chase animals when they can
secure fish? 1t is something as it is
in Newfoundland, where I went a cou-
pie of seasons ago. There the pre-
vailing fish, as you might say, is cod;
and though there is no end to the vari-
ETY. of edible fish that can be taken,
the natives never think of eating any
thing else. Cod is plentiful, and they
form the habit, suppose. This is SO
ingrained that they call Goldfish fish
simply. The genus is divided into cod
and the rest of fish.
"Well, when the British Columb ia
Indian makes up his mind for venison,
he goes at it Systematically and with
out sentiment. A group of half doz-
en- or ten men split and take either end
of valley. Then they proceed along
the mountain slope from the two ends
to the center. They choose the shell
tered side of the valley on which the
deer seek to escape the wind Each
party covers the mountain side, some
near the foot and some at the TOP. and
others between the lines, keeping
abreast by an initiated owl boot. The
deer, on winding pursuit, have the
trick of leaping away down the slope,
unlike the goats, which go up, and thus.
between the two approaching parties.
they are swept together at the middle
of the valley. A good sized herd will
thus be killed off and the Indians sun
piled for many weeks by two or three
days eXertiOn'

THOSE WHO GO TO LAW.
The English Are More Given to Set
thing DisIsutes in Court Than
Any Other Nationality.

Deep is the confidence of the Brit
on in the law. 1t settles his quarrels,
and he settles it's charges, OF as much
as he can defray, states London
paper.
A parliamentary return issued re-
Gently, and dealing with the judicial
work of 1900, shows that during the
year mentioned there was, compared
with the preceding year. a slight in
crease in appeals entered and an in
crease in proceedings begun.
Compared with the average of the
preceding four years the total of
cases begun and heard shows an in
crease.
1t appears that Of all the cases be-
gun considerably less than half come
to trial. The total of cases entered
in all courts was 1,31O,6SO, and the
number heard and determined 42o,.
418. This means that one case was
begun for every 25 members of the
population, while one for every 75
was heard. Seeing that there are
case, it follows that one person out
of every 1879 began legal action and
one in every 81 brought an action
to trial.
The judicial committee heard sc
appeals from India, 33 from the col
onies and 16 from Australia. The ay-
erage cost of these appeals is esti-
mated at $3.50 each.
The average cost of an appeal to
l.. L =
much, senior counsel in these cases
receiving from so to IS guineas day,
and their juniors two-thirds of their
fees.
Of sos cases in the court of APP.
peal no fewer than 1872 were eases
under the worlmen's compensation
acts. The average cost to each party
of these appeals is put at $50.
1t is instructive as to the nature
of lawyers charges to know that
some bills of costs of appeal before
the lords have had as much as 60 per
cent. taxed off, and the average re-
duction by taxation was 29.O6. In
one case the bill of costs was e..
336, but the hearing extended over
II days.
The records show that there is
no decline in the public liking for
trial by jury, and that there is an
increasing preference for special

the defendants.
Of actions entered in London and
