FRAUDS TRIED ON THE PEARL

FRAU HEYL. DOMESTIC OR : x s5 GANIZER. cs


 The soul of the German movement fer. new housekeeping is Frau Hedwig. Heyl of Berlin. As the wife of d wealthy manufacturer and, since his death, as the manager of his business, she obtained wide knowledge of people and of the needs of different classes. Her first interest was in her own factory workers. She saw how difficult it was for the father and mother who were busy in the factory all day to train their children into good and in dustrious men and women. Frau Heyl felt that she was responsible for the welfare of the children of her workers, so she prepared her attractive garden house and invited them to come to her when not in school. The girls were

Immediate consideration. Pretty much
all the bills introduced had some rela-

An executive session was held.
The house resumed work, but with

down for lack of quorum. The bill
to create a general staff in the army
was up and in attempt to pass it un-
der suspension of the rules, which re-
quires a two-thirds majority, showed
that there was not quorum present,

Giving jewels" (as the poets call ba-
bies), dropped unstained from heav-

they came one for every minute of the
day. From Jan. 1 to Dec. 81 between
3S,0O0,O0O and 100000 living jewels
are dropped into this cold world.
There are more baby girls than boy
babies. The proportion of female births
to male births is as 100 to 90. SO that
between 100000 and 100000 more
girls are born in the world each year
than boys. There is always surplus
of women, and the extra number Of
girl babies keeps up the supply.
The rate of infant mortality is enor-
nous. In round numbers, 100000
babies never live long enough to talk,
100000 more never have chance to
walk or run and 100000 more never
get old enough to go to school.

file with which to scrape it, the COM
bined outfit producing q discOrdant

Cubans fancy it, is even worse than the
finger drumming and wire swapping

Distribution AT ST. LOUIS
Family Found, with Husband and Child
Dead, and the Others Starving
to Death,

st. Louis, Jan. 5.-Sick and tossing
On a miserable couch in a poverty
stricken abode, and surrounded by her
five young children, the police Satur-
day found Mrs. Nancy McKane slow
ly dying from hunger. The dead
bodies of her husband and 16 months
old grandson lay in the same room.
There was no fire and no food. One
Of the children lay on the couch with
the suffering mother, flushed with
fever.
The husband had died from con-
sumption and the infant grandson had
succumbed to insufficient nOurishment.
The case was SO appalling in it's desti-
tuition that the two officers who had
accidentally discovered it provided
coal and food from their own pockets
and then took the opportunity to make
a report for speedy charity.

EARTH ENGULFS HOUSES.
Remarkable Cave-In at Olyphant, Pa
O'Brien Hotel and Three Other
Structures Drop.

Scranton, Pa, Jan. GA mine cave
in, the like of which has never before
occurred in the Lackawanna valley,
happened at the corner of Lackawanna
and River streets in the borough of
ELEPHANT. Four structures, one of
them the O'Brien hotel, fell 100 feet
into the earth SO that only the apex
of the different roofs appeared.
A gang of men and boys who were
at work in the mine beyond the fall
encountered flooded dip" or de-
preston, in Il vein in making their
way out by circuitous route, and had
to swim from one rise to the other.
The O'Brien hotel was a three-story
structure. Flames broke out from
the stoves in the structures almost as
soon as they fell, and the hotel struc-
ture was destroyed. The other build
ings burned for a time, the fire APP
parently being smothered by the con-
slant falling of earth.
The loss is complete-land, personal
property, houses, and everything at
tached to them going down. The
money loss is fixed at $4,000. For
tunately not life was lost

San Francisco, Jan. 2.-The patience
Of the watchers of the Postal Tele-
graph company was rewarded at IL :01
p. N. yesterday when the instrument
at the San Francisco end of the Pa
cific cable indicated that connections
with Honolulu had at last been made
and that a message was coming
through. The first words that the tick
er denoted OF the tape We're "You are
reversed" This was adjusted and then
the first formalmeSsage was sent from
Honolulu. 1t was fitting that such
message should be from the chief of
the fair Pacific isles to the head of the
United States, and so the ticker read
a message of congratulation and good
will from Governor Dole to President
Roosevelt.
Messages then followed rapidly,
greetings being exchanged. The local
operator said that the cable worked
like an old timer, and surprise was ex-
pressed at the speed and accuracy The
Postal company officials are delighted

hours working and accept it as an
augury of Il prosperous future

Saturday. The express box was taken

few dollars. The holdup took place at

The method of swallowing is a very
simple one, although if the frog be
large more than half an hour may be
consumed in the process. The two
bones of the lower jaw are separate
and capable of Independent movement;
so the reptile loosens it's hold upon one
side of it's jaw and pushing that side
forward as far as possible it drives the
teeth in again and draws the jaw back
to it's original position.
The result is that the prey is drawn
down by the movement. The process
is then repeated by the other half Of
the jaw, thus inevitably forcing the
victim inward. The snakes skin
stretches enormously, and the jaw is
of course dislocated, but the extensible
ligaments hold the bones together.

Port Closed, Fearing Plague.

Mexico City, Jan. G.-The govern
ment has issued an order closing the
port of Topobolampo, which now Off
cially is known as Port Stilwell. This
action is due to the fact that there are
no quarantine officials at that port and
it is feared the bubonic plague may
be brought there from MaZatlan. Port
Stilwell is the Pacific terminus of the
Kansas City, Mexico and Orient rail-
road, and a new steamship line was
recently inaugurated to touch at that
port by the Stilwell interests.

Marriage without love is almost a
crime. In fact, it would be regarded
as one if the world were as true, as
simple, as sincere, as it ought to be.
But society has SO long wandered in a
maze of complexity, and marriage,
from monarchs downward, is under
taken for such a variety OF reasons
apart from love, that only a few retain
the correct impression about it. And OF
these few the majority are women or
girls who would rather die than marry
a man they did not love- Sir Walter
Scott knew this we'll when he wrote
"The Bride Of Lammermoor." His
noble, gentle, true and tender spirit,
aware Of what love is could well COM
pute the horror of loveless marriage.
