Mrs. House Fly
on Women.

One day during the past week,
while bordering upon the pleasant
and unpleasant occurrences OF past
years, as we'll as the surroundings
of the present, my attention was
attracted to a reunion of Mrs. Ely
and her family. A large number
of visitors had passed through the
shop, greater majority OF whom
were young, and old maids, any
where in age from thirty to one
hundred and ten. Mrs. Fly had
been watching them and making a
few notes, and when she called her
family around her she began as
usual to give them few pointers.
This time she devoted her remarks
to women, as follows:
Some time ago I told you that
fiction informs us that man was
planted in a garden. Well after
he had grown to be a good sized
animal he became very uneasy ano
lonesome, so the keeper planted
again and this time woman grew
Now man thought he had hare

is said that man did not get TIM
to feel lonesome or for anythin.
else.
In the first place she made her
self dependent on man, and whel
she began to exert her infuenc
on him from that time to this h
has been in trouble up to his nee
most of the time. They tell u
that she made him eat things the

o was that the keeper kicked thel

from that time to this man h,
h had to grub for living for hin

r. may I always like to watch wor

SKELETON I'm
ROOTS
Washington Farmer Makes
GrueSOme Find In a Tree

Tacoma, April 1S.-A. NJ. Hunt, of
Gig Harbor, a town seven miles
across the bay from Tacoma, yester-
day while ex~cavating the stump of a
giant fir tree, found ahuman skele.
ton imbedded in the roots beneath
the center of the tree. Hunt be
lieves that the tree must have been
about 300 years old when it was cut
down. and it has been cut about %
years. ~'tS
The skeleton is undoubtedly that Of
an Indian. When first taken out Of
the ground the bones were soft and
pithy. After being exposed to the
air for a few hours they became firm
and brittle. Barbarous head orna.
mentations, consisting of the teeth
of wild animals and gew-gaws made
of bones, were found around the
skull, indicating that the Indian was
buried in the full regalia of war
paint and savage splenjor.
Hunt thinks that the time the In
dian was buried was so remote that
the Sound must have flowed very
neal the spot where the skeleton was
found, but that though some seismic
disturbance. or on account Of some
slow natural %shrinkage of the ocean.
the burial spot has been left far
above the high tide line. Clam shells
found where the skeleton lay tend to
substantiate his theory that the In.
dian was buried just above the high.
tide line.

The VitaIs of a City.
The Worlds Work.

The Worlds Work.
OF all the thousands who daily walk
the streets Of New York, looking admir-
ingly at the towering buildings, few
know that the vitals of the city are be-
meath their feet, that life throbs far below
the pavement in the thrust of a hundred
thousand piston rods, in churning engines,
in the hum of ventilating fans, the buzz of
dynamos, and the choked roar of the fur
naces. And yet, buried fifty feet or more
beneath the sidewalk, far below the tide
water of the rivers on either side, bulked
in by coffer-dams of steel and rock, are
mechanical plants which represent the acme
of engineering achievement. a great steam
ship has no greater proportion Of its bulk
concealed below the water line than the
modern 'skyscraper' has beneath the line
of the asphalt.
The foundations of the great fifteen or
more story structures of lower New York
are sunk beneath the level of the bottom of
the East and North rivers. Nothing but
bedrock is firm enough TO support their
giant proportions. Then, built around the
sunken caissoas and within coffer-dams
of steel and concrete, are three, four and
five stories OF the building lower than the
street.

A mob in a factory, the fun that comes
on pay day. a murder. a stolen will, all
these things and more have a place in
Charles Z. Blaney's new comedy drama,
tn Factory Girl which comes to the
Park to-morrow afternoon. Above all the
more exciting Incidents CLOVIS the love
story of a girl factory worker who has in
justice heaped upon her. While the play
presents many phases of the labor problem
as a toiler faces them, 1t contents itself
with making an appeal for just treatment
for him. The production is said to delve
into comedy as much as IL does in drama,
most of 1t being brought out by Lon Has
call, who, in the character of an insurance
agent, not Only is a funmaker, but has a
hand in righting many wrongs which be-
fall the heroine. The production is said TO
be heavy with scenery and mechanical
equipment. One scene reveals a factory in
operation, when a murder Is committed,
and, to cover the crime the Sanseless form
of a man IS thrown upon a carrier that
moves toward a great steel hammer. The
heroine, witnessing the crime, breaks down
a glass partition and reScueS her sweet
heart as the hammer is about to fall upon
him. A dynamo, a switchboard, and other
electric c~ontrivances are employed in max
ing the factory scene realistic. A large
number OF men, women and children par
day, which ends in a dance. The play is
frequently interrupted by singers and
dancers. who give speciality numbers. In
the company are Neil Barrett, Charles
Keane, George E. Fisher, Harry Vane,
Caroline May, Ella Cameron. Estelie Wills,
Beth Kaufman, Florence Ardley, Marion
Arnold and a number of others. The en-
gagement is for three days.
Daniel Frohman's brilliant dramatic sue
cess of last season, "The Pride of Jennico,"
will. by special arrangement with Mr..
Frohman, come TO the Park the last half
Of the week. Edward X. Mawson. who ap-
pears as Basil J~ennico, is said to be a
worthy successor to James X. Hackett,
who last year appeared In the title role.
Mr.. Mawson is said TO not only have talent
as an actor, but his voice and splendid
physique especially fit him for the part of
the hero, who with his sword cuts his way
through many intrigues and gains possess
sion of a princess, whom he loses soon
after their wedding. Helen Holland ia said
TO make a winsome Princess Ottilie. who
changes places with her maid to make sure
that the mar she marries loves her without
her title. The fiery gypsy maid is imper-
sonated by Helen Harrington. Mary Mac
Gregar, Annette Leslie, William Hawley,
Leon Richman, Wilmott Williams. Morris
Frank, q. a. Coutis and others make up
the company, which numbers twenty-five.
The play is from the famous novel by the
same title and the dramatization is the
