A writer in an athletic journal holds that girls as we'll as boys should be given good training in physical exer- cises. He says physical training re ceives more attention in girls schools now than formerly, and holds that it should, for it is as important for girls as for boys, and more so. A girl in her teens is a more complicated ma chine than a boy of the same age, and her sports and exercises should have even closer supervision. But sports, by all means, she should have, and it is a good sign that American girls are getting an increasing share of them. The majority of American women do nowadays a very limited amount of physiacl labor, and have more need than their grandmothers had to have physical labor, and have more need especially in their early years. Not alone the daughters of well-to-do par ents need it, but the great mass of girls, and especially those who live in cities. They should be no more over taxed physically than mentally, but the training of their bodies is no more to be neglected than the training of their minds. Tn exceptional cases where the two courses clash, let the mind wait and give the body all the time and chance it needs.

An organization known as Sne Equity society, made up mostly of far mers. is trying to protect its members from the trusts, and to that end Is en- deavoring to place wheat at a stand ard price of $1.O0 per bushel. A Wash ington writer says that there is anoth- CT and an easier way for the farmers to accomplish the result aimed at, and it does not involve the risk and almost certain failure of attempting to imi- tate the manufacturing trusts. In the first place the price of wheat is fixed in Liverpool and not in Chicago, and if we ceased entirely to export the chances are that the price in Chicago would not go to one dollar. There are too many farmers and they are too widely scattered to form a trust, and even if they were not they are not pro- tected by the tariff rates, as are the manufacturers. The latter can get to- gether, form a trust and force the prices as high as the tariff wall at any time they choose. The farmers can do no such thing. The manufacturers have thus forced up the prices that the farmer must pay for manufactured

STUDENT HoUsE WORKERS.

At Columbia university statistics were taken to ascertain how it's stu dents were earning money to obtain an education. The variety of callings was large, probably because New York city offers to any one who Is in search of work more lines of activity than can be found in any other one An1eri- can city. One young man who as a boy had learned to help his mother turned houseworker for family of three professional women, who were in the city all day and kept house in a Harlem apartment. This student took all the care of the apartment. He ar rived on the scene each morning in time to wash the breakfast dishes and do the marketing. Once week he gave the apartment thorough clean ing, from scrubbing to dusting. The young women handed him each morn ing a list of the supplies they required. and all that awaited them at night swas their cooking The verdict O. his employers was that their work was better done than by any of the women that they had ever had.
 This student was not the only O. lumbia man who saw possibilities in .housework. Twelve of them earned their board and lodging by living in apartments where the servant dues- ton had become more than a problem. During leisure hours they washed dish es, swept. scrubbed, cleaned, shook rugs. cooked; one man actually did the family washing. and did it well. So ably do the students fill these positions that occasionally a Harlem or Wash ington Heights matron is found adver- tising for Columbia student who will emancipate her from helpless 'help. .'- Good Housekeeping. ..

While visiting Galveston during
the past week, the editor had the
pleasure of meeting several former
residents of Brownsville. Among
them was NJ. B. Kingsbury, who
now holds the responsible position
of general agent of the Southern
Pacific railroad at Galveston. Mr..
Kingsbury was very kind in ex-
tending every courtesy to the editor,
and his attention was much appre-
ciated. George w. Miller, also a
former Brownsville boy, the son of
the late Judge G. w. Miller of this
place, was also very attentive and
exerted himself to entertain the
editor. George is a fine fellow, be-
ing one of the best known young
men in Galveston. He is in the
employ of the Mexican Cable COM
pany, and has the confidence and
respect of all that know him. C. A.
Forsythe, who has an excellent
position in charge of the Pullman
company's offices at Galveston, was
another old friend from Browns
vile whose familiar face was one
of the pleasing sights that greeted
the editor. All were very much in
terested in hearing OF old friends at
Brownsville and were much pleas
ed to learn of the late progress and
development here, as the result OF
the irrigation enterprise.

Col. Cleary to Be Promoted.

The San Antonio Express of last
Wednesday, under its Army notes,
says that Col. Peter J. A. Cleary
will receive his promotion in July.
The Express says;
Colonel Cleary, who is a Civil
War veteran, is due to retire on
Nov. I, but it is expected that he
will be promoted to the position of
brigadier general in July and then
retired"
Colonel Cleary's many warm
friends here are very much pleased
to learn of his prospective promo
ton, and will congratulate him
most cordially when he becomes
General Cleary, a distinction he
his long and faithful service. There
will be regret mingled with their
rejoicing, however, as his promo
ton and retirement may deprive
US of the pleasure of having him
with US again.

A hint to dentists. The London
Onlooker says:
l hear that Lady Rivers Wilson
has had a tooth extracted without
pain, and by new method. The
dentist begged her to go the open
window and inhale as much fresh
air as she could, drinking it in
with a long breath. After a few
minutes this new anaesthetic render
ed her as insensible to suffering as
laughing gas or ether could have
done, and her tooth was successful
ly and painlessly extracted. So the
story goes.

THE P0sToFFIGE FRAUDS.
A Sensation Promised in Wash
ington Soon.

Washington, Sept. 9.-One of the
persons indicted yesterday by the
Federal grand jury, in connection with
the postal investigation, is George W.
Beavers, formerly chief of the division
of salary and allowances. It is under
stood that the charge is conspiracy.
Another of the indictments is
against August w Maehen on new
set offacts, inEolEing him with Beav-
ers. The charge is conspfraeeJy..
While the officials refuse to disclose
the names of the four remaining
persons who were indicted yesterday,
it is said that none of them is or has
been connected with the postofice de-
partment, and that one is man of
some prominence. It was stated at
the city hall today that the climax of
the investigation is to come shortly
when a person not connected with the
department, but man as we'll known
as the Postmaster General himself,
will undoubtedly be indicted for COM
plicity in the postofice frauds. The
grand jury began hearing the evidence
in this particular case today, and it
is stated that when report is made
it will in all probability conclude the
investigation in Washington.

went fifty feet through the air, and
Oldfeld, who kept his seat, had a

had one rib broken.
Oldfeld had just time to twist his

several places and fracturing his skull.
He was thrown seventy-Gve feet and
never recovered consciousness. Old

throw himself backward on the fat

wrecked. Shearar's brother was stand

The LEXINGTON JURY LIST.
1t Will Not be Published Before
the Next Term of Court.

The Columbia Record publishes the
following article. In view of the fact
that the trial of J. Il. Tillman is ex-
pected to come of at the approaching
trial in Lexington the Records article
is very interesting:
A gentleman from Lexington county
who was in the city today said that the
list of jurors for the term of court to
be held this month will not be pub
lished.
Citizens expected to see the list in
the Dispatch of this week, but failing
to find it in the paper some of them
inquired of the clerk of court why the
names were not printed. According
to the gentleman referred to, this Off
Ger answered that the names would
not be published this time in order to
prevent the possibility of any " tamper-
ing'' with them. There is no law SO.
far as Lexington is concerned, it is
said, to require the list of Jurors to
be published in a newspaper, but
their names cannot be kept by officials
from anyone who may desire to know
who they may be. Still the statement,
as to the reason the list will not be
printed in the Lexington Dispatch is
interesting, and involves a serious
question as to whether tampering"
with Jurors is custom in the state or
whether it is suspected to be attempted
at this particular term of court in
Lexington only.
