 The strangest anomaly, to civilized eyes, of all this ffnery and the money that is invested in it lies in the fact that not one of the true Zapotecan wo- men will wear shoes.

LABOR COLONIES,

Perhaps the United States can still learn something from other countries. For instance, perhaps it might study with profit the labor colonies in Hol- land, Germany, Belgium and England. In Holland there are three such colo nies, with an aggregate population of 5000, consisting of poor families which were without employment, but willing to work. These colonies were begun after the battle of Waterloo, when thousands were reduced to poverty by the war. Philanthropic persons gave the land and assisted in its cultivation. After experience is gained and a repu- tation for efficiency obtained the cslo- mist is put first on a free farm and
 then OH 8 farm of seven and half acres, for which he pays rent. He is given a COW and other helps, for which he pays in annual installments. Farm ing, horticulture and dairying are taught; governmental aid is supple mented by the sale of products and by private contributions. In Germany the colonies consist chiefly of ex-prisoners and others who require exemption from temptation rather than punish ment The colonists cultivate the land assigned to them during the summer and during the winter work for neigh boring landowners. There is no limit to the time of their stay. The three Belgian colonies, aggregating 6,O0O per-

AFTER MONET.

Surprising as it may seem to the in- nocent and trusting people of the Uni ted States, some designing folks are after their money. These folks are using Mexican enterprises to separate United States people from their money. Consul-General Parsons, who repre- sents the United States at the City of Mexico, warns Americans against fraudulent American companies opera ting in Mexico. He gives his advice to all who intend putting any money into these Mexican ventures in mining and agriculture not to place reliance on re- ports of stockholders nor on high sounding names on boards of directors, but to investigate for themselves or through some agent they can trust be- fore putting a dollar of good money into the enterprise. The custom of using unearned dividends to advertise these agricultural and mining enter prises is apparently common enough, and MT. Parsons says that the men running these enterprises are fatten- ing on the subscriptions of clerks, school teachers and even common la borers, who cannot afford to lose their money,
 Of course there is money to be made in Mexico. but it will be well enough to heed MT. Parsons warning.

There prevails in the navy the tradi- ton that some wealthy man in New York has offered large sum of money if any one can prove that sharks bite human beings. There are several claims in favor of this propensity of the shark. The latest case comes from Assistant Surgeon F, M. Munson, U. S. N, re- gently on duty on the Asiatic station and now at his home on waiting orders at New Castle, Delaware. Dr. Munson, in his report to the surgeon general of the navy, describes the experience of 8 boatswain's mate of the Piscataqua at Olongapo, Philippine Islands. The man, while bathing from the side'of the ship. was bitten on the foot by g. shark.

Ben Thorn, one of the noted charac- ters in the history of California, for more than forty years sheriff of Gala veras county, the captor of many of the infamous criminals of the State, fear less and daring, died recently in San Francisco. Thorn was a leader in many of the famous man-hunts in California. One of his early captures was that of Tom Rivers, lieutenant of the notori- ous Joaquin Vasquez, the bandit who was hanged at San Jose. Through Thorn's efforts Joaquin Murietta, the most notorious of all the pioneer-day outlaws, was driven out of the mining countries, where he had committed many depredations

Revising itself, and by the close vote of 4 to 3, the New York Court of Ap- peais has decided in favor of the closed shop, that an employer can agree with union to employ only union men. The majority opinion, delivered by Judge Gray. holds that such a contract is simply private agreement and in no way eentravenes public policy. The mi nority. opinion, delivered by Judge Vann, holds that the manifest purpose of such a contract is to prevent compe- tition and create monopoly of labor.
