WOMAN A PUBLIC OFFICIAL.
Pessimiss When Talking Of Alabama
Must Speak in Soft Tones-Fe-
male Secretary There.

The pessimist who protests
against woman's progression, not
to mention DEPRESSION, in new
lines of work must admit there is
recognition of her ability abroad
in the land when a woman is
chosen as recording secretary of
one of the southern states, says
the Pilgrim. When the man who
held that position with Gov. Gun
ningham, of Alabama, resigned
recently, Miss Mamie Offutt, who
was confidential stenOgrapher to
the governor, was appointed in his
place. 1t was a great compliment,
for the Office demands the exercise
of much tact and diplomacy. By
virtue of her position Miss Offutt
is also secretary of the state board
of pardons, and keeps a record Of
everything in connection with the
thousand and one applications for
pardon from inmates of Alabama
mines and prisons. She must have
a familiarity with the statutes Of
the state which relate to the Of
fee of governor, since questions
bearing upon state laws and stat
Utes are consequently coming in,
and many novel points raised.
She must also indorse the action
of the governor upon such applica-
lions, as well as conduct much of
the correspondence of the execu-
tive department. Graciousness
and gentlewomanly qualities are
no less characteristic of Miss Of
futt than the knowledge of her du.
ties or the efficiency with which
those duties are performed, and
her appointment to such respon-
sibilites is not only a tribute to
her exceptional ability, but Incl
d%entally recognizes the fact that
there are women who can keep a
secret.

MoBs ATTACK MONUMENTS
When Riot in Russia Breaks Loose
Big Shafts Are Made the First
Object of Attack.

That the disturbances in Russia
are not marked by the overthrow
of memorials is due to the care
exercised by the police in guard
ing the column of Alexander l..
and other historic monuments.
The police have learned through
experience that these public me-
MORALS are the first objects of a
mob's attack, and they prOfited by
the happenings in other lands.
When the Commune gained con
troll in Paris its first action was
the overthrow of the Vendome
columns, while even the historic
Nelson column, in London, has
been mined, though in that in
stance the detonator failed to eX-
plode.
The statue of William III. in
Dublin has withstOod many an

AMERICAN osTRIcHEs MANY
Four Farms in United States and In

Year by Year.

There are four ostrich farms III
the United States and the two
most important are situated in
the Salt River valley, Arizona.
The industry is carried on success
fully in the Arizona climate and
the birds seem to thrive quite as
well as in their foreign habitat.
Mr.. Joseph Harbert, of Phoenix,
imported 16 birds from South At
RIGA in 1893, and placed them on
his farm i'll the Salt River valley.
a few miles from the city of Phoe-
nix. A number of the birds died
from the effects of the journey and
the change of food and climate.
and during the first years little
progress was made. Their eggs
were Matched in large incubators,
and when the business of caring
for them was learned it was found
that the Salt River valley birds
grew up to be several inches taller
than the imported birds and the
feathers IRE said to be of better
quality. Gov. Alexander 0. Brodie
of Arizona, takes great pride il
the ostrich farming of his terri
tory, and he has devoted consid
cradle space to it in his last an
nual report, showing that hit
believes it will become in time on,
of the leading industries of tina.
region. One bird will yield ;
pound Of feathers at one clipping
and they are clipped every eigh.
months. Some of the feathers ar,
sold as high as $25 a pound in east
ern markets, so it can be readil,
seen that it is an industry WORT
