Old Traders Watch Board.

It is the old traders who frequent
the tradingroom. The women who
want to catch up on their dressmak-
ing and millinery bills and who would
die rather than have their husbands
learn that they know what a margin
is carry on their deals over the tele-
phone, but last week the most of them
trailed away behind their bills instead
of forging ahead.
The women who make trading a
profession and not a luxury are sat
isf1ed with small killings and if the
close Of the days market finds them
with $50 or SIS to the good they are
satisfied. This happens so frequently
that they reckon their income at that
rate and during the recent furry many
Of them doubled it.

HOLLANDS NEW VENTURE.

Mr.. Holland, whose name Is known
in connection with the submarine boat,
believes he has a successful flying ma
chine. 1t is different from the usual
air ships In this respect, that It has no
gas bag, but depends entirely ON me-
chanlcal contriyances for floating and
moving about in the air. The machine
is said to have two sets Of wings oper-
ated by four wheels. Each Of the
wings is ten feet In length, and the
whole machine, we are told, weighs
only 20 pounds, and may be packed in
large sized trunk The inventor is so
sanguine Of success that he predicts
that flying through the air vii soon be
safer and more popular than bicycle
riding.
II is probably true that successful
flight viii finally be achieved along the
line Of the mroplanc, rather than the
balloon. or by the two combined, as
they are in the bird. The balloon has
practically been developed as far as 1t
can be, and the sad experience OF NJ,

point Of view 1t Is regarded--s not cal.

ments along that line II IA to be hop

MRS. MAVERICK.

The final release OF Mrs, Maybrlck,
from custody, Is not a vindicatIon Of
her innocence. The unfortunate wo-
man Is freed on a ticket OF leave. But
ms she Is not under obligation Of re-
porting TO any British authorities, she
is practically free to 30 and come
where and when she desires, even be-
You'd British jurisdiction. The free
dom obtained Is due, very largely, to
the constant agitation OF American wo-
men, many OF whom have regarded her
as a martyr TO British Jurisprudence,
and their victory is a matter OF sincere
generalization.
The history Of her case is well known,

RUSSIA WILL MAKE GOOD.

It will be seen by the London dis
patches, that the questions relating to
the seizure OF English vessels by Rus
sian cruisers are being amicably adjust
ed. the Russian government being will
ling to make every PREPARATION possible.
There could he no other outcome Of
those cases. Russian diplomats are
masters In international law, and they
generally know just how far they can
permit their army and navy command,
ers to go, without mourning the risk Of
war.
The Russian cruisers that sneaked
through the Dardaneles were vessels
employed In the transportation Of mer-
chandise. but in times Of war under
obligation TO enter actual service.
Every government has vessels Of that
class. They are called auxiliary cruls-
ers. In times Of peace they are not
war vessels. on that account they
could easily 70 through the Darda-
nelles, eludlng Turkish vigilance, par
tlcularly II deception is practised as IN
this case, when one Of the vessels dis
played the Red Cross flag, and the other
went as a hospital ship. Once on the
open ocean, the armament was hoisted
from the hold and mounted, commits
slons were read and the merchant
steamers became armed ships OF Rus
STA.
The British premier, however. has
emphatlcally stated, that II the ships
had the right to pass through the
straits, they had no right to arm them
selves after they had passed; and, II
they had right to carry arms, they
had no right to emerge from the Black
Sea. From this logic there IS no APP
peal. And so the giant Of the north"
once more retreats on the command OF
his powerful rival in the orient, The
bear is not in a position to show its
| teeth to the angry lion.

UTAH's "oLD FOLKS"

The San Francisco Call comments
approvlngly on the Utah custom OF
providing special excursions and
| amusements for the so-called Old Folks
Referring specially to the late outing
| 10 Spanish Fork our contemporary says
that Nathanlal Hawthorne, In his
search for the unusual never imagined
an assembage so striking "There
were present old people OF nearly every
color an, nationality known to man
kinda chleftain from the South Pa
clac samoans, Hawalians, colored peo-

Scotch, Americans. Scandinavians-a
cosmopolitan gathering Of a very un-
usual character. They were all alive

DRY events In the war with Mexico and
the old days on the Missouri and Mis-
slssippi prior to 1916, Even one Of the
original party OF Mormons that entered
Salt Lake city In July lSi7, was at
the picnic"
We believe the general sentiment in
the country wherever this dlstlnctively
Utah institution IS known, Is one OF
approval and admiration. 1t is all the
more strange that every state IN the
Union has not, before this, followed the
lead Of Utah in this matter, and pro-
vlded for regular gatherings Of SINH
lar kind Everywhere are aged men
and women whose pleasures are few,
and who would look forward to an an

the commercial outlook for New Eng
land was darker than at any time since

doubtless due, in part, to natural causes
which no government could control,
and no political party can honestly
promise to correct, but they are also
in great part due to artificial trade
conditions, brought about by republi-
can commercial politics. The mentiou
of Parker's name evoked great
cheering.
William l.. Douglas, for governor and
John G. Crosby, for lieutenant governor
were nominated by acclamation.
The platform endorses the national
