BANK TELLER GETTING SIXTY

Takes the Banks Money and Lives Expensively-Tried Speculation, But Failed, and the Generous Paying Bank Get What They Deserved, Namely, 3 Robbed Till.

A warrant issued yesterday by Mag istrate Planning in the Morrisanai DO lice court charging Frederick J. Voss, receiving teller Of the Dollar Savings Bank ot the Bronx, with grand lar ceny, was the first intimation of the dedication and disappearance oi Voss.
 A salary Of s64 month did not agree very well with the expensive tastes of himself and his beautiful wife. ae needed more money, and, according to his own statement made in a letter of confession written to the president of the bank, used the banks money for speculation.
 His speculation turned out badly, he couldn't raise money to make good what he had taken, so he left town. He disappeared on December IS, and no official of the bank has been able to learn anything as to his where abouts. The representatives of two bonding companies, the Aetna Indem- nity company.

RECLAMATION OF ARID LANDS.

A day or % ago the Review called the attention of the people of thls city. and particularly the business men of this particular community, to the importance Of the irrigation prob lem of he San Pedro Valley, and which the San Pedro Valley Develop ment Association has so nobly endeaV' ored to foster and promote through the proper channels at Washington.
 From a recent report made by the Agricultural Department at Washing. ton we learn that our crops of corn, wheat. oats, barley, rye. buckwheat flaxseed, potatoes and hay for 1903 were raised upon 215.0o6,oOO acres of land, or II per cent. of the area of the republic, not including Alaska. The farm value of these crops is placed al s3,0OO, 900, 900, or at the rate of $13.7O per acre. Wheat was valued at 62 1-2 cents per bushel, and other crops in proportion.
 Engineers who have made @ study of irrigation and of our arid lands west of the Mississippi claim that 100000. 900 acres can be reclaimed by irrigation, and made highly productive lands, which command at all times and seaso1s an abundant supply oi water, and will yield larger and more uniform crops than land in the valley of the Mississippi dependent upon the rainfall
 Irrigated lands in California sell for from s1O0 to s1 ,0OO per acre, and have been sold.for s1,sO0 In Colorado this season ITO tons of sugar beets were produced upon twenty-nine acres of irrigated d&nd, and were sold to a su. gar refinery for sS,1s5 Irrigated lands planted with fruit trees. grapes, or anges. almonds. and small fruits oft en yield S1,O00 per acre. A conserva tive value of 1O0,0oO.O00 acres Of irrt gated land in our trans Mississippi and Pacific States would be s10,000, 900; GOO. or s1pO per acre. The annual val ue of the products should be not less than s25 der acre. or total value oi s2.5O0 900, 300
 Ten billions added to the accumc lated wealth of the Nation in the form of productive land. yielding an income of s2.5O0, ,OOO will give stability to our investments in railways, steam. ship and manufactures The recla- nation of these lands involves no en tangling international problems to solve nor, should their reclamation be male a-oues'ion of party politics u is a problem for the Nation to solve. and not the States or private corporations.
 The Empire of Germany and the Re public of France have an area Of 2s3.. 100000 acres, and a population Of s3,- 000,0o0. If We assume that 40 per cent Of their lands are under tnlage their crops of food products named above are raised upon 105 200, 900 acres of land. They produced in 1900 400; 100000 bushels of rye, and 30,G00, 900 tons of sugar beets and other crops for the 9upport of 93,000 900 people.
 The reclamation of cur arid lands means a vast and permanent enlarge ment of our home market for the pro 1 duct of our industrial establishments | Irrigated lands will repay extensive cultivation because the returns from

A very pleasant wedding took place
at the country home of Mr.. and Mrs
Arthur Braddell, near Lewis, on
Wednesday evening, the 9th inst. +,
when Mr.. Harry Radcliffe and Miss
Mary Mclean, eldest daughter of
Mrs, Braddell, we're joined together
in holy matrimony. The service used
was the beautiful marriage ceremony
of the Episcopal church and was per-
formed by Rev. DR.. j. D. Krum, of
Ottawa, former rector of the Brad
dell family. The bride was Hastily
gowned in white crepe de chine trim
med with white silk .medallions. A
brother of the groom was hest man,
and Miss Anna Mclean, a sister of
the bride, was brides maid. The
wedding presents were useful as we'll
as beautiful. Only two invited guests
were present besides the families of
the bride and groom. Elegant re-
freshments were served and after the
ceremony the time was passed in so
ciability. The. young couple are
among the worthiest people of Lewis.
We extend to them sincerest wishes
for happy and prosperous future3

TWO MAIDS AND A CHILD.
Little Three-Year-Old Was an Active

Little Three-Year-oId Was an Active
Aid of Cupid.
There was wedding in BlankwOod
the other day, and it has leaked out
how James Parker, the catch" of the
town, came to marry plain Harriet
Moore instead of sprightly Helen Best
1t was chubby and not overclean lad
of three summers who made the
match.
James was standing in the shadow
of the forward deck of an Erie ferry
boat when he saw the girls, return
ing from a days shopping, take seats
in the cabin.
Cupid. disguised in hideous ging-
ham pinafore, struggled to climb on
the arm of Helen's seat to look out of
the window, and the maid who affect
ed extravagant devotion to children
when James was around. did not con-
ceal her annoyance.
/. Harriet, who never had posed as a
motherly girl, changed places with
her companion and heh the squirm-
ing imp up to the window until the
boat put in at The slip, while Helen
looked bored.
BLESS that little blue-aproned cher
ub!" murmured James, after Harriet
had said Yes" and then he had to
confess to his eavesdropping--New

AN ANCIENT ISLANDER
Women is No Ponder Than Man Of
Hearing Herself Talk.

tSattu9 tISfSStI dtk.
The less foundation there is for a
slarder the longer it lives. How many
ideas are in existence today that have
been handed down through the chan
nels of literature and verbal tradi-
ton and are firmly believed in by the
mass of mankind. and yet are abso-
lutely erroneous. For example, take
that common idea of woman's gar
rulity. From the prevalence of this
mistaken notion, one might imagine
that man has lost the power of speech
and that woman is the sole medium
for verbal communication.
The so-called comic" papers TEEN
with jokes in which wcman's alleged
fondness for words, words, words -
as Hamlet says, is held up for ridi-
Guile. The men who write cynical
paragraphs for the press are continu-
ally harping upon this ancient theme
OF feminine loquacity with such re-
marks as this: "A man in Missouri
hasn't spoken a word to his wife in
16 years. Perhaps he was unwilling
10 interrupt" Or, 1T was said of a
certain great man that he could be
silent in seven languages. 1t is rarely
that a woman performs one-seventh
Of this feat" Funny? Perhaps, but
with a sting.
Let us see whether verbosity is a
purely feminine characteristic.
Preaching and the law may be re-
garded as chief among the 'talkative"
professions, and these are filed almost
exclusively by men. Barbering, too,
which is somewhat of conversation
al calling, attracts many more men
than women, and whoever heard of a
female auctioneer? The truth is, the
power of speech was given to both
men and women for intelligent use,
and one sex abuses the privilege
about as much as the other But to
lay the entire burden of criticism
upon woman is the essence of Unjust
ice.-Housekeeper.

WI TALKS OF FOOT BINDING
Humorous Address Of Former Chinese
Minister on the Subject.

Minister on the Subject.
Minister WI recently attended the
meeting of an association in Canton,
composed of Chinese and foreigners.
called the Natural Feet Society. 1t
was like this irrepressible humorist
to begin his speech by solemnly as
severating that he had never allowed
any daughter of his to bind her feet,
admitting, however, that he had no
daughters. To be sure, his wife had
small feet, but he confided to his
hearers that he deferred marriage
three years, hoping for a wife of suit
able rank with natural feet, but when
his parents could find none he had
to marry one with bound feet or re.
main single. His wife now thinks as
he does about the folly of ancient
customs. But it is very difficult to
unloosen feet once bound, though I
can tell you sub rosa my wife is try
Ing to unloosen her feet. When she
heard of this meeting she urged ms
to come, and she has authorized me
to say she will give small contri-
button of 500 to the society."-New
