ARE sHoRTsIGHTED'
Disagreeable Man Makes Remarks
About Apparent Stupidity Of
Female Travellers.

''Id like to know why 1t is that a
woman can't see an empty seat on an
open car when it's staring her in the
face" said disagreeable man, grum-
pier than usual under the influence
Of the heat, to Chicago Inter Ocean
man. 1--WE had to ride all over town
on surface cars good deal this sum-
mer, and I've seen cars delayed time
and again by the apparent stupidity of
women who codldn't find seat. OF
course woman can't travel along the
footboard like man; but why, after
she has taken plenty of time to survey
a car which is only half filed, will
she insist on climbing into a row
where she either has to stand up
until some perpsiring man gives up
his seat to her, or else squeeze in
where she has to sit on the edge7 The
man will have his seat picked out be-
fore the car stops. He has no trouble
In picking out the empty spaces in the
car. But nine out Of ten women go
all to pieces the minute the car stops.
After woman has done a few laps
alongside the car looking for an empty
seat, it's dollars to doughnuts that she
will pick full one and pass right
by one that's got some room in it."

WATER LILY SEEDS AS FOOD
Many Indian Tribes Still Cling to
Primitive Form of Living
Harvest in August.

/ Some of the Indian tribes of the United
States still cling to their primitive forms
OF food, declares Golfers Weekly. A.
notable instance of this is the continued
use OF wokas by the klamath In
dams This tribe occupies the klamath
reservation, which is part of the terri
tory Originally occupied by 1t before
the arrival Of the white men, and lies
In the southern part of Oregon. The
land has but small annual rainfall, but,
on account Of its situation at the foot
OF the eastern slope of the Cascade noun
tains, 1t is we'll watered with streams and
contains two considerable bodies of wa
ter. One of these, klamath marsh, is
particularly rich in plants, and conse-
quently In animal life. Occupying
about 10000 acres of this marsh there
is a solid growth of the large yellow
water lily, Nymphaea polysepala. In
the old times the seeds of this plant
were collected by the Indians, and I'M
der the name Of wokas furnished their
principal grain supply, filling the place
OF the corn used by some other tribes.
To-day these seeds are still collected and
regarded by the klamath Indians as a
delicacy. The lily seeds are harvested
IN August; the wokas gatherer uses a
dugout canoe, and, pulling herself around
among the dense growth of stems and
leaves, picks off the full-grown seed
pods.

FAIR DURING ENTIRE YEAR.
saxony, Germany, the Only Place on
Earth Where Continual Expo
sition Is Held.

+ "Saxony, Germany, is the only place
in the world where continuous fair is
held during the entire year." said Will
liam j. Helms. "These fairs are Of
three kinds. The most important ex-
hihitions are held in the larger cities
during the summer and fall months for
a week at time, but never on the same
dates. It is quite common to see as
many as $4,000 to 10000 persons attend
"a fair, and they stay from early in the
morning until late at night. The gov
eminent of Saxony recognizes the fact
that the matter of holding expositions
has passed the experimental stage, and
that they are great benefit to business.
Another fact which appealed to me
when l was travelling through Germany
was the action of the Bavarian trades
museum in sending out travelling lee
turers who show the practical workings
of toys by means of models in actual op-
Grafton. The museum is, believe, up
held by the manufacturers of Bavaria,
who are largely engaged in making toys
for sale in America and at home, and the
fact that the sales Of toys, especially me-
'chanical ones, in that section of the
country is ascribed to the work of these
travelling lecturers"

The detective visits
Uncle David

So much for one oddly which may
stand as sample of many others.
One glance at the room into which he
ushered me showed why he cherished
80 marked dislike for visitors. 1t
was bare to the point Of discomfort
and had 1t not been for certain
Quaintness in the shape of the few ar
ucles to be seen there I should have
experienced decided feeling of repul-
sion. so pronounced was the contrast
between this poverty stricken interior
and the polished bearing of its owner.
He, am sure, could have shown no
more elevated manners If he had been
doing the honors Of palace. The Or
gan, with the marks of home con-
struction upon it, was the only object
visible which spoke of luxury or even
comfort.
But enough of these possibly uninter-
esting details. did not dwell on them
myself except in a vague way and
while waiting for him to open the con-
versation. This he did as soon as he
saw that l had no intention of speak
ing first.
"And did you find any one in the old
house?" he asked.
Keeping him well under my eye, re-
piled with intentional brusqueness:
"She has gone there once too oftenw
The stare he gave me was that of an
actor who feels that some expression
Of surprise is expected from him.
"She?" he repeated. "Whom can you
possibly mean by she?"

GARLIC FOR CONSUMPTION.
Its Use as Food Declared by Expert
to Be Preventive Of Dread
Disease.

The use of Garlic as food will pre-
vent consumption, so says an Italian
expert with the euphonious name Of
Giulio Cavaszani. In an article to the
London Lancet he claims that garlic will
prevent consumption. He thinks he has
made this discovery by experimenting on
guinea-pigs. 1t is to be hoped that the
italian physician is correct, but it may
be another one Of the numerous lukes
which medical experts are so fond Of
foisting. It seems very strange, con-
sidering the number Of garlic eaters
there are in the world, that it has not
been discovered that such people never
have tuberculosis. However, garlic is a
great improvement on creosote. So far
SO good. H is advisable to use garlic as
q food II one likes it, whether it pre-
vents consumption or not.

WAGE FARMERS AT THE FAIR
Prominent Men Planning to Help
Workers See the Great Exposition.

Prominent Men Planning to Help
Workers See the Great Exposition.
Wage earners of America are to see
the Worlds Fair by tens Of thousands
under the auspices of the National Civ
&c Federation. A new bureau Of the
Federation has just been established at
st. Louis upon the Worlds Fair
grounds. Back Of the movement are
Grover Cleveland, David R. Francis
Andrew Carnegie. Cornelius N. Bliss
and others. Plans are making to have
a vast number Of the wage earners Of
the United States see the Worlds Fair,
the most glorious spectacle Of the age
and the most influential factor in the
education Of the American citizen.
The bureau is in charge of Miss Ger
trude Beeks, secretary Of the Fedora
TONS welfare department, of which
Mr.. H. II. Vreeland. head of the street
railway system of New York city, is
chairman. The bureau headquarters ia
In the east end Of the Palace of Trans
portation, on the ground floor. The Elk
position management is in hearty ac-
cord with this movement on the part
of the Federation to induce the large
manufacturers and other employers Of
labor to provide ways and means for
the wage earners Of America to visit
the Exposition. President Francis is
displaying personal interest in the I'M
dertaking by affording the Federation
every facility for the contamination of
its efforts, and in this connection he
has directed Theodore Hardee, assist
ant to the secretary, to cooperate with
Miss Beeks and Ralph NJ. Easley,
chairman Of the Federation's executive
council, In every possible way.
The Exposition management has also
equipped this bureau with clerical as
distance and a full supply of Worlds
Fair literature. The bureau will be
used as headquarters for all wage earn
ers coming to the Exposition under it's
auspices. The aim of the Federation ia
to make 1t feasible for the largest pos
sible proportion Of wage earners to WIS.,
1t st. Louis and see the Worlds Fair.
It will see that they are met at the de-
pot by responsible persons and con-
Quoted to suitable lodgings, where they
will be treated fairly.
There will also be furnished, free of
charge, appropriate itineraries indicat-
ing the points Of interest to be seen
within limit of one week, which is
about the average time each party will
spend here. 1t will also indicate the
objects Of special interest to various
craftsmen in their particular lines, so
that they may devote as much time
as possible to the objects Of peculiar
interest to them. These and many 9TH
er efforts will be made to help all wage
earners to enjoy the benefits of this
great Exposition comfortably and at an
expense within their means.

st. Louis, Aug. 15.-From all direc-

to believe that the attendance figures

Sufficient evidence of the growing
popularity of the Worlds Fair is pre-.
scented in the statement that the at

double that for May, and that the num-
Der Of admissions in July was nearly
quarter of million in excess of the
figures for the month preceding. On
August 2 the number of admissions

IN forded me that night for study
ing the three leading charac-
tiers in the remarkable drama
! saw unfolding before me. A task
was assigned me by the captain which
took me from the house, and missed
the next scene-the arrival of the cor
oner. But repaid myself for this loss
in way thought justified by the i'm
portance of my own theory and the evil
dent necessity there was of collecting
each and every point of evidence which
could give coloring to the charge, in the
event of this crime coming to be looked
on at headquarters as one of murder.
Observing that light was still burn
Ing in Uncle David's domicile, crossed
to his door and rang the bell. l was
answered by the deep and prolonged
howl of dog, soon cut short by his
masters amiable greeting. This latter
was surprise to me. l had heard 80
often Of Mr.. Moore's churlishness as a
host that I had expected some rebuff.
But encountered no such tokens of
hostility. His brow was smooth and his
smile cheerfully condescending. In
deed, he appeared anxious to have me
enter, and cast an indulgent look at
Ridge, whose irrepressible joy at this
break in the monotony Of his existence
was tinged with very evident dread
of offending his master. Interested
anew, followed this man Of contra
dictory impulses into the room toward
which he led me.
The time has now come for a more
careful description of this peculiar
man. Mr.. Moore was tall and of that
refined spareness of shape which sug-
gests the scholar. Yet lie had not the
scholars eye. On the contrary, his re-
gard was quick, If not alert, and while
It did not convey actual malice or Ill
will it reused in the spectator an I'M
comfortable feeling not altogether
easy to analyze. He wore his iron
gray locks quite long, and to this dis
tinguishing idiosyncrasy, as we'll as to
his invariable custom of taking his
dog with him wherever he went, was
due the interest always shown in him
by street urchins. On account Of his
whimsicalities he had acquired the cpl
tibet Of Uncle David among them, de-
spite his aristocratic connections and
his gentlemanlike bearing. His clothes
formed no exception to the general air
Of individuality which marked him.
They were Of different cut from those
Of other men, and in this as in many
other ways he was law to himself;
notably SO in the following instance:
He kept one day of the year religiously,
and kept 1t always in the same way.

The surprise expressed at this bold
attempt at righteousness was better
simulated than his, hope.
"You don't knoww exclaimed. "Can
you live directly opposite place of
such remarkable associations and not
interest yourself in who goes in and
out Of Its deserted doors?'
II don't sit in my front window" he
peevishly returned.
I let my eye roam toward a chair
standing suspiciously near the very
window he had designated.
"But you saw the lightT' I sug-
gested.

I went out to give Ridge his usual
five minutes breathing spell on the
stoop. But you have not answered my

his own special sleeping place under

in those dismal apartments? You in
terest me greatly. I did not think she
would ever have the pluck to visit this

her wedding"
"She has had the pluck" assured
him, "and, what is more, she has had
enough of 1t not only to re-enter the
house, but to re-enter it alone. At least,
such is the present inference. Had you

In position to correct this inference.
1t would help the police materially to
know positively that she had no COM
panion in her fatal visit"
"Fatal?" he repeated, running his
finger inside his neckband, which sud-
denly seemed to have grown too tight
for comfort. Gan 1t be that my niece
has been frightened to death in that
old place? You alarm me-"
He did not look alarmed, but then he
was not of an impossible nature. Yet
he was Of the same human clay as the
rest Of us, and, If he knew no more Of
this occurrence than he tried to make
out, could not be altogether impervious
to what had to say next.
"You have right to be alarmed" I
assented. "She was not frightened to
death, yet is she lying dead on the
library floor" Then, with a glance at
the windows about me, added lightly,
II take it that pistol shot delivered
over there could not be heard in this

BE sank rather mechanically
into his seat, yet his face and form did
not lose that sudden assumption Of
dignity which had observed in him
ever since my entrance into the house.
II am overwhelmed by this news"
he remarked "she has shot herself7
Why?"
II did not say that she had shot her
SELF" I carefully repeated. yet the
facts point that way and Mr.. Jeffrey
accepts the suicide theory without
question:
"Ah, Mr.. Jeffrey is therev'
"Most certainly; he was sent for at
once"
"And Miss futile? She came with
him Of courseT
"She came, but not with him. She is
very fond of her sister"
Il must go over at oncep' he cried,
leaping again to his feet and looking
about for his hat. ut is my duty to
make them feel at home; in short, to
ITO put the house at their disposal"
Here he found his hat and placed It on
his head. "The property is mine now,
you know" he politely explained, turn
ing, with keen light in his gray eye,
full upon me and overwhelming me
with the grand afr Of man who has
come unexpectedly into his own. "Mrs.
Jefrey's father was my younger broth
er-the story is an old and long one
and the property, which in all Justice
should have been divided between us,
went entirely to him. But he was a
good fellow in the main and saw the
injustice Of his fathers will as clearly
as did, and years ago made one on
his own account bequeathing me the
whole estate in case he left no issue or
that issue died. Veronica was his only
child; Veronica has died; therefore the
old house is mine and all that goes
with tall that goes with It."
There was the miser's gloating in
this repetition of phrase sufficiently
expressive in itself, or, rather, the
gloating of man who sees himself
suddenly rich after life Of poverty.
There was likewise callousness as
regarded his niece's surprising death
which considered myself to have
some excuse for noticing.
"You accept her death very calmly"
I remarked. Probably you knew her
to be possessed Of an cratic mind"
He was about to bestow an admoni-
tory kick on his dog, who had been in
discreet enough to rise at his masters
