ERROR IN MISSOURI SEAL.
Small Bear in Center of Emblem Faces United States Decoration, Thus
 Denoting Hostility.

Since the issue of the Missouri volume pr. W. G. Brown, of the University of Missouri, has called attention to the fact that the reproduction of the grand seal of the state is incorrect As this em- blem forms an important part in the decoration of the Missouri building and the several exhibits of the state, t!,c matter has been investigated by Walter Williams for the commission. Tn the centerpiece of the seal small bear is shown on one side, while the other is oc- cupied by scroll, emblematic of the United States. Tn the reproductions of the seal to be found in the Missouri vol une, and the decorations of the exhibits, this bear has his head turned toward this emblem of the United States It is claimed by Dr. Brown, who is an author ity on heraldry, that this representation denotes an aggressive position on the part of the state, represented by the bear, toward the United States, repre- sented by the symbol. His claim is that the head of the bear should be turned away, as denoting submission to the idea of the union. Dr. Brown refers to the official description of the seal and the original seal, preserved in the archives of the state.

ALL HAVE SAME BODY HEAT
Medical Man Examines Stoker and Explorer and Finds Tempera-
 ture Always the Same.

A medical practitioner has drawn att tention to very important subject in the matter of diet. He points out that the stoker grilling in the stokehole of a Red sea liner and the explorer among the ice foes of the frozen north-pro- vided they are healthy men-have identical temperatures. The automatic heat-regulating mechanism in the body, no matter what the thermometer may register outside, gees that the body is kept at a normal temperature Of about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. Tn order to assist this wonderful process in ex- tremes of weather, it is necessary to con slider the subject Of food, and one of the most important items of food in hot weather is water. Water, as the writer points out, is food, and it should be taken in summer weather as a regular article of diet. The habit Of drinking iced water is discountenanced. and the ice cream isbarred as the most fruitful cause of innumerable dyspep- sias. Better than cold drinks are hot drinks. and tea with a slice of lemon is recommended as the most cooling drink at this time of the year.

CAB IN FRONT OF ENGINE.
New oil-Burning Locomotive Used in Some Railroad Systems
 in Italy.

An oil-burning engine with the cab on the front end has been in operation on the Pacific coast for some time, and locomotives of this construction have also been in use for several years on Italian railways. The Southern rail- way (of Italy) has recently added to it's equipment some four-cylinder com pounds of this type. They are of the ten-wheel class, with the cab in front of the truck and frebox and the cylinders at the rear end. The coal Is carried Tn bunkers at the side of the frebox (four tons capacity), and the tender has cylindrical tank. The firebox is of the Belpaire type and extends over the frames. The cylinders are all in row behind the smokebox (at the trailing end ofthe frames), and all of them drive the middle driving axle. The arrangement of the cylinders and valves is peculiar. The two high-pressure cylinders are on one side and the steam distributor is controlled by single piston valve and Walschaert valve gear. The two low-pressure cylinders are on the op- posite side and are also served by a single piston valve and valve gear. The engine has six driving wheels. In front of the cab is a small platform with side steps.

"oyER NIAGARA FALLS" ]"

A large audience are witnessing Rowland and Clifford's elaborate pro- .duction of lover Niagara Falls" this afternoon at Polls, and large at, tendance is expected again this even- ing. It is just the play to stir an au, dience, and thrilling excitement runs high. especially when the heroine, en- cased in barrel, is dashed over the Horseshoe falls. The scenic effects of this piece are grand. Those who have visited the real Niagara will appreciate the wonderful reproduction of the falls all the more, while those who have not been so fortunate as to become ac- quainted with the monarch of the cata- racts can form an idea of it's magni- tude and grandeur. Prices are 20, 35 and 5 cents.

BUSINESS WOMEN INCREASE
Visitors to High-Class DepaTtment Stores Become Impressed with
 Change for the Better.

Unquestionably more women of capa- bility and intelligence look upon sales manship as life work than was the case ten or even five years ago. A visit to any one of the better class of stores is sufficient to prove this to the satisfac- ton of even the casual observer. One does not get the impression that the salesgirl is simply working at a small salary until she can marry or find some other employment, but one sees thoughtful saleswomen, who are trying to make their occupations worth some thing, who intend to sell goods as 8 business and not as transient occupa- tion. The result is that they get better pay than before, and many of them are earning better salaries than they could in any other way. The discrimination between men and women in salaries be- comes less and less for the modern ten- dency is to regulate the remuneration by the work done, without reference to who does. 1t. Many women as heads of departments get good salaries and it is no uncommon thing to see women of 50 years or. Trcr.a h taese positions

BEAVERS DAM MAINE RIVER. Aquatic Rodents Prevent Engine Se- curing Usual Supply of Water
 from the Stream.

Many curious stories have been told about beavers and their ways. Some of the lumbermen in Maine say they are flooding their timberlands to such an extent that they should have less protec- tion by law. while visitors to our lakes and ponds find them great attraction. The biggest" beavers, in way, that we have heard of reside in Redington township near the Eustis branch of the Phillips and RangeIey railroad. Their home. is on stream that supplies water for engines. A few weeks ago the en- zine crew stopped for water and found, to their surprise, that the stream was dry. It was only dry for few days, however, and the water began to run again without any apparent cause for the change. Then man followed up the brook to investigate, and mile and half or so up he found a nice beaver pond. The beavers had damned the stream for their own purposes and when their pond was full the overflow went into the stream and then the engine could have the water.

VAUDEVILLE.

Henrietta De Serris and her Parisian models leave us after their final exhi- bition at the Jacques this evening, and it is not likely that this wonderfully striking novelty will again be seen here, since the models return to Paris after a few more engagements in America. As headline attraction to follow them next week Manager Poll has secured another European novelty in the Three Joscarrys, who have been secured after short engagement at Hammerstein's in New York. This is considered one of the big European novelties in the acrobatic line and has won great popularity since it's introduc- ton in America. As second feature Klein Ott Brothers and Nicholson ap- pear in their splendid musical act which is regarded as one of the very best things of its kind on the Ameri- can stage. MT and Mrs Gardner Crane make still n third special feature III presenting their splendid comedietta ssAm Your Wife?' A minstrel novel, ty that always makes great hit on any bill is offered by Mitchell and ,AIarron. and in addition they bill sin4 cludes the Great Trimmer and a num- Der of other well known entertainers.

 The bride boarded the train without him. Still he was there. While she worried as the train sped along he was clinging desperately to the iron rail of the baggage car. s4g
 There was no stop until the train pulled into La Crosse, ard the bride alighted and looked around her anxious ly. A smoke begrined young man stood alongside the car she had just left, but he escaped her notice until he could get bath and clean suit of clothes.

HAD UNIQUE WEDDING TRIP
Hung On to End of Blind Baggage Car.

Married, yet separated on their honey moon, the bride riding in Pullman and the groom crouching in death defying position on the head end of the 'sblind baggage" of the limited, was the odd trick fortune played a young La Crosse couple a few days ago.
 The names of the young couple are kept secret, but it actually happened. They were married secretly in Winona, but when the time came to return to La Crosse the groom had just enough money to pay railroad fare for one.
 He purchased the bride ticket to La Crosse and assured her he would quick

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

"BEAUTY AND THE BEAST"
 The marvellous Drury Lane spectacle of "The Sleeping Beauty and the Beast,' which will be seen at Polls the last half of next week, continues to meet with phenomenal success. It is strictly a beauty show, having over 150 pretty and chic maidens, and a host of popular comedians. Never be- fore has such grand spectacle been placed on an American stage with it's wealth of gorgeous se,nery and radi- ant costumes. It is simply a show of dazzling splendor; the groupings at the. finish of the acts are simply won derful for their beauty. The costumes, the grace of the young ladies and the originality of the maneuvers win the most enthusiastic praise, and the spec, tacle ends with a fascinating artistic tableau. It is not strange that one has to see .'The Sleeping Beauty and the Beast again and again before begin, ming to really appreciate its perfec- tionS.

MILDRED HOLLAND.

A very satisfying performance is certainly assured at Polls on Tuesday
 evening when Mildred Holland appears in her established success, ''The Tri- umph of an Empress" Miss Hollands s artistic and emotional abilities are so well recognized that any lengthy men ton of her work and personality seems at this time to be superfuous .'The Triumph of an Empress is a play which was written especially for Miss Holland. It is a dignfied drama it's theme being based on incidents in the life and history of Catherine II of Rus
 sin. and introduces during it's action many of the characters who were prominent during her reign. The au- sluor has taken the period of 1S69-1762

WAIT MANY YEARS TO WED
They Were Married in the Dark That Marks of Age Might Not Be
 Apparent. .

Judge Zell Roe left his bed the other night at 12 o'clock to speak the words which bound together Ragan B. Bay hard and Lou Pairn, aged 47 years, says the Des Moines News. The couple walked into the city from opposite directions to reap the reward they had waited 27 years to1receive, and then asked to be wed in the dark.
 The groom arrived about II o'clock and hung around the front yard until the arrival of the bride. They met in the moonlight and approached the house hand in hand. It had been a long time since they had met before.
 Judge Roe thrust his head from the door without the formality of putting on his clothes or striking light.
 Please don't strike light, squire" :" pleaded the groom in a husky voice. T reckon Lou ain't quite es purity es she was 27 years ago. Kaint you tie us up in tn dark so's we ken think we air es young es we used t be?"
 When it was over they told story of humble submission to fate. Each had watched tenderly over the last declining years of father and mother. For 27 years they had slaved to ease the path of invalids in the separate homes. But few days ago the death angel fitted away with the soul of an aged mother in one home and a father from the other. The angel opened wide the door which has been barred these long 27 years.
 Judge Roe will not deny that he felt a glad thrill of joy as he watched them wandering, arm in arm, down the moonlit road.

Is the Waterbury City Government Run in the Interest of Trusts :?

With the Assessors Department grinding the small and middling prop~ erty owner to q point of distress, and this reform government now proposes to make the owners of small dwelliz gs set water meters in each house, pay for and keep the same in repair, and sha city will sell water to the small cons sumner at q high price, md the bis ecn- sumer at n low price. If this rlilt is enforced the city will be compelled to place on the pay roll about 100 meter inspectors. Of course the city vill pay for their services first, and tho taxpayers afterwards.
