 An interesting g featufe of the hilip- pine military exhibit at the St Louis worlds fair will be the collection of weapons, many of which were taken from the native soldiers when war was In progress. Some of the bolos, war clubs with heads at either end, are deliberately carved The spears, too, death-dealing in war, make splendid decorations. in times of peace. The bow and arrow, a most primitive means of offense, were used by the Philippines in remote sections until re- cent years, and the collection shown embraces many specimens of these. Many of the rifles captured from the Filipinos are of ancient Spanish manu- fracture, and the contrast between tl1ern and the splendid Krag- Jorgensen rifles which the F'ilipinos were com pelled to face, when lighting the Amer dcan soldiers, is striking. All the buildings in the Philippine exhibit wifi be constructed of native materials by native workmen. and when conn pleted one will have an accurate pie ture of what life really is tn the Phil ippines.

Some very shrewd. if interruptions newspaper work is being done by the press agents who are booming Pred- dent Roosevelt for the 1904 republi- can nomination. They are portraying him as heavyweight trust fighter who is smashing the trusts right and left They tell the people that Wall street is dead against Roosevelt, and is laatching all kinds of schemes to prevent his nomination. They are even tnvsnting ingenious stories about the postof1ce frauds. scantais and cor ruptions, which they hope will not on- 1y divert well4deserved bIanne for this state of affairs from the president, who has permitted it to go on for two years, but will try to make political capital out of it for him. They now say that some of the principal rascals of the many who were plundering the postoff1ce were conspdring to prevent the presidents nomination next year. In these simple and absurd ways they expect to beguiIe the voting popula- ton of the country, and, according to their own assurances. they are suc- ceedfng.

SERVANT GIRL PROBLEM.

If ever there was a conscientious servant she is Katie Morrison of Meri- den. If ever there was better cook, Charles Johnson never had one in his employ. But Katie Morrison's deter n1inatfon to do her work thoroughly even brilliantly, and to remain in her present place for a month has driven the Johnson family frantic; also from their happy home
 Mrs Johnson brought Katie from New York, engaging her for a month At the end of the third day Mrs John son was sorry she could not engage Katie for the rest of her natural life. Not, only was Katie a most excellent cook, but she was quick, attentive, DO lite and deeply interested in her work "a Jewel in word.
 And then came the awakening. Ka- tie is a victim of epilepsy Mrs Johnson went ir1to the kitchen day before yes ter1ay to find Katie suffering from an attack. Mrs Johnson was mortified When Katie had recovered she sorrow have to go Katie Morrison just as firmly announced that 1t was her pur- pose to remain until her month was up.
 It developed upon Mir Johnson to discharge Katie forthwith. He did dis charge her. Katie serenely announced that it was her purpose to remain un- til her month was up. Mir Johnson lost his temper. Katie calmly pro ceeded about her household duties.
 The Johnsons conferred and resolved to appeal to Katie's better nature. They pleaded with eloquence. Katie almost .wept out of sympathy, but she knew it was her duty to remain. MT Johnson offered her a months wages If she would depart at once and her fare back to New York.
 Then Katie wept, but was firm. She proudly announced that she could not be bribed. An appeal was made to the police. They could do nothing. Then Mr Johnson sought City Attorney Hinman. He looked up the law and found that it was all on Katie's side. He advised stratagem-the turing of Katie from the house and then barring the doors on her.
 Katie refused to be Iured. She is- sued 11er ultimatTm; she was going to remain in that house and do her work as it should be done until her time was up Mr Johnson believes that Katie will keep her word and he is arrang- ing to move away and leave the entire house to Katie.

 Arrangement That It Stood.
 While we were visiting at a small village in one of the Carolinas we went one afternoon to see one of the old negro mammies in her own log cabin. She was highly honored at the condescension of "de ladies" and was much concerned that the call might not be disturbed by the presence of her children "fo'teen pickaninnies" she called them. Of course curiosity was too strong for the youngsters, and soon the one door was blocked with curly heads and wide=open eyes hen nanny perceived them she just turn ed around and, gathering tip the skirts as one does in front of a flock of tres passing chickens, cried out "Shoo!" and the ugh-drops disappeared.
 But towards the end of our visit nanny needed the service of help CT to put out the jelly and cake that she insisted we eat. Stepping to the door she called:
 Soon three girls fin single-piece COW erings came bashfully. but curiously, through the door, and all were given orders by the bustling mother.

DIVORCE IN FIRST FAMILIBs.

For the first time the women of the real first families of America are seek ing relief in the divorce courts. Hith- erto these women have been wont to bear bad husbands patiently until more appreciative men came along and made them happier wives by first making them widows. But even the conserva- tisrn of the first families breaks down at last and yields to modern methods of ending mistakes.
 According to dispatch from Bone steel, s. D. Anna Lame Dog. Matilda Beaver Boy and Kate Medicine Horse, of the Sioux tribe of Indians. have pc titfoned the courts to be relieved of undesirable, husbands. Anna says her husband was cruel and has eloped with Red Horse Woman. Matilda accuses hers of cruelty and non-support. Both ask the restoration of their maiden names, Anna Wild Horse and Matilda Black Tomahawk
 Tn these complaints, averments and requests there is nothing unusual. But the case of Kate Medicine Horse, ac- cording to her petition. exhibits such feminine fidelity that Medicine Horse must be a very bad husband indeed,
 
 he seems to have done.
 Kate ayers that her husband insisted she should do all the work. and that she was perfectly willing to do 1t. But in addition Medicine Horse became q confirmed drunkard and constantly abused her She thinks 1t too much that while doing all the work she should be maltreated She rightly holds that such an inconsiderate man does not deserve wife.
 Tn view of the we'll known facility of divorce in South Dakota there can be no doubt that these Sioux women will promptly receive their freedom. And. while the extension of the divorce habit into the first families may be de plored from one viewpoint, there can be no doubt that Kate Medicine Horse, at least. deserves her freedom.

The report of the interstate com merce commission just issued says that the number of persons in the en- ployment of the railways of the Unit ed States, as reported for June 30, 1902, was 1,189,315, or an average of 694 employees per 100 miles of line. AS compared with June 30, 1901, the num- Der of employees increased 11S146, or 46 per 100 miles of line The classt- 1cation of these employees shows that 4S,818 were enginemen. 5O,651 f1remen, 35,070 conductors, and 91,3S3 other trainTnen. There were 5o,4S9 switch tenders, crossing tenders and watch men. Ddsregarding 1882 employees not assigned to the four general divis- ions of employment, it appears that the services of 41,O71 employees were required for general administration, 3e9, 1892 for maintenance of way and structures. 22S, ,28o for maintenance of equipment, and 51S, S,390 for conducting transportation. The report continues Tne Starement or the average daily compensation of the IS classes of em- ployes for serdes of years beginning with 1892, and also another giving the total compensation paid to more than 99 per cent of the railway employees for the fiscal years 1895 to 1902. The amount thus shown as paid in salaries and wages to employees during the year ending June 30, 1902, was $676, OPS, ,592, which was S65.S14,891 in excess of what was paid during 1901. The compensation of the railway employees for 1902 is equivalent to 60.56 per cent of the operating expenses of the rail- way companies, and 3916 per cent of their gross earnings
