Men Arc to Blame.

1t Is customary for those who de-
plore the tendencies of modern life to
put all the blame for everything that
Is wrong upon women. but Mrs. Rus
sell Sage takes a different view Of the
matter. In an article in The Club
Woman she holds the American man
responsible, in great degree. for mol
ern American res.lessness and home
lessness.
I've Lear little nowadays OF the
obligations Of the father to his chill
dren," says Mrs. Sage. THE modern
father is not like the Scotchman of
Philadelphia. who said. I do my share
in caring for these seven children
On the contrary, the modern father
says: Let the nurse take care Of the
children. We will 60 to the park
"The paternal instinct is not strong
ly developed in the average man. He
must be diverted, and the woman. in
stead Of being n helpmeet to her nus
band, becomes prOvider of amuse-
ment. No part Of the day or week is
set aside wherein fathers may become
acquainted with their children. The
Sabbath is given over to a mad seek
ing after excitement. When their
father comes home in the evening the
children are in bed. The strain upon
the wife is great, and many dangerous
experiments are made to comply with
this demand of the men for amuse-
ment. The watchfulness which a care
full mother should give to her home
and children is expended on the self
ishness of one man-the father! 1t Is
this attitude of the father which is a
serious menace to home life!'
Club life and apartments Mrs. Sage
also mentions as partly responsible for
the passing of the home. 1.-THE apart.
Ment," she says, us really the solution
of knotty problem brought about by
the typographical formal on OF our
metropolis and the enormous increase
in population, but it nevertheless
makes real home life almost impossi-
BILE. 1t is difficult to find an apartment
at moderate cost that is large enough
from sanitary point Of view. All
rooms are on the floor. The child
cannot be isolated from the mother,
and the latter cannot obtain the nee
essary rest which is imperative to her
well-being.
"This problem Of space Is not
solved even in the country. l know
one mother who finds it very difficult
to secure a summer home near the
city where the accommodations for
the family and the five maids are
sufficiently healthful and comfortable.
She will not doom the maids to hot
attic chambers and an abundance OF
mosquitoes"
The servant problem Mrs. Sage
mentions as an effect and not cause.
The growing desire on the part of
women to free themselves from house
hold cares and their consequent neg.
lcct of the duties of the mistress have
created the servant problem. in her
opinion.
And all these things are visited on
the heads Of the children. They are
left more and more to the care OF
servants. They receive no moral train
Ing. And as for manners. there are not
enough to be worth mentioning to-day.
Neither does the school supply this
lack. The intellect il fed, and there
is no time left for moral training or
the teaching of manners.

A MAN WITH A PULL.

Reliance on pull not infrequently de- velops into a dangerous passion. Such was the case with a prominent citizen of Westfield, who must be nameless. This prominent citizen with three Oth- CTS had been to a resort on the Con nectfcut river near HolyOke, where a clambake was held. Beer and strong drink had flowed freely. until on the ride home late at night the hired driv- CT was the only man in the party who was wholly awake to his surround ings. AS he came near a grade crossing he heard the whistle of an approach ing locomotive and refined in his horses.

HALLOWEEN FRANKS
A Street Car Incident that Casts Sus-
 piCiOn on hischievous Boys

Halloween was very generally rec ognized by the young people of the city last night, who were out in force until a very late hour this morning. At o'clock a. m., there had been dIs- covered but one accident of a nature so roguish that it might be criminal, and it is not yet a certainty that it was not an accident instead of the work of Halloween imps.
 That incident was the ditchlng of a
 street car on the Brill line, in Church. hills addition, so near the switch that it also impeded the passage of the Indian school car, thus tying up both lines. It had not been determined last night whether the car was thrown by some obstruction placed on the rails or whether the derailment was a mere accident, but if it was the latter the fact of the date casts a circum mstantial suspicion on the prank of playing boys of the city. If they were responsible, it is well for them that they were not detected for wrecking a street car is almost as apt to endanger life as wrecking a steam railway car But in the absence of proof, the public will be only too happy to give the boys the benefit of the doubt.
 The police found many street corner conventions of boys during the night. and it is likely that daylight will re- veal a somewhat disheveled state of affairs in respect of foot bridges, gates, etc, though no dis turbance of the peace was reported and nobody was caught in the serious abuse of property rights. About 1 o'clock this morning a gang of boys were seen operating suspiciousIy on First avenue, south of Washington | and the police took up their trail. but nothing serious had been discovered at press time. Early in the evening there was some uneasiness among grown people over what seemed to be the fir | ing of series of shots, but it was found to be explosions under the 1 street cars, presumably of gun caps or primers placed there by festive youths

tate consisting of the north three Inch- es of lot l, block 54. of this city. This lot, by the way, is the site of Consta- ble's cold storage plant. erected since the beginning of the suit. The defend ant Mead, is, or was, a resident of Denver, whose chief business was to go throughout the west attending the sales of property for delinquent taxes During one of his visits to Phoenix he took the feast part of the above mentioned lot and paid the taxes due on the whole" The least part, or less than any of the bidders would take, was three inches. This property after ward came into the possession of the plaintiff, who asked that Mead be brought into court to set forth the na- ture of his claim upon the property.
 The Denver Bond and Security com pauy inteTVened and filed an answer and cross complaint in which it was alleged thatin 1897 Mead had received from the treasurer of this county a tax certificate as a tax lien on the proper ty described in the plaintiffs com plaint. This certificate had been as signed to the intervenoT, but no appli- cation had ever been made for deed. A subsequent amended cross bill stat ed that since the beginning of the suit the intervenor had applied for and re- ceived a tax deed, which had been duly recorded. The intervenor wants his ti- tile to the property established by the court.

WEALTH NOT LUCK.
More than Chance Back of MilIionaires
 Assets.

With the one exception of inherit ance, there is not a prominently wealthy man in the public eye today who can be said to have amassed his money through luck.
 While it is true that every invest ment they make, especially those of which the public are aware, seem to show evidence of the Midas touch,' we must remember that these invest ments are being made after years of training and experience, which enable the financier to forecast results to a practical certainty. The strongest characteristic of these men is will power.
 Rarely are persons found who do not have a desire and hope for ultimate in dependence. but still more rare are the ones who have the stamina to really make any attempt to save money or actually bring about their own for tune.
 The end of each successive week, month and year finds them in the same condition as at it's start.
 Should an offer of a partnership for only a few hundred of dollars be of fered them in some good paying busi- ness they would be in no position to avail themselves of the opportunity. Neither, until a man masters his own will and starts to actually set aside every week. something toward his ulti-
 mate independence is he a safe man to put at the wheel even in his own business, were such a partnership pre- sented to him, free.

The fox terrrIer hurried across the street to head off a water spaniel. The usual preliminaries were gone through and as there was no cause for a fight the two stopped for a few minutes to discuss affairs of the day.

 How does that interest me?" asked the terrler. twill dog meat be any cheaper or more plentiful?''
 "Perhaps,'' was the reply, but I was not thinking of that I was thinking of what a great load would be taken off your mind"
 ''In what way" asked the terrier.
 "You would no longer have to live in dread of the sausage maker. The city would not dare to grind up dogs and call them sausage. Somebody would raise the cry of graft and an investigation would follow"
 But" asked the terrier, what would they use Instead?"

 Tomorrow Night.

Rev. C. Hall Cook. of the London So- ciety of PsychicaI Research, which among it's members the late w. l.. Gladstone will lecture tomorrow night at Veterans hall, in the Lamson College building on the subject of Existence After Death" He arrived here recently from the coast, where he had appeared before many audiences. The San Jose Mercury Herald said of his lecture there:
 "Rev. C. Hall Cook, who Iectured to crowded house two weeks ago. has re- turned to deliver his second lecture. The crowded houses which have greet ed the lecturer in all the great cities of the West, show a widespread interest in the theme he discusses. pr. Cook is connected with that eminent body of scientists known as the Society for Psychical Research, London, England and is himself a trained investigator along psychological lines. He has the endorsement of the secretary to help along the great work of the society to secure members and to organize To- cal bodies. His report of investiga- tiOns in automatic scrip first attracted the attention of the late Frederick H Myers and Prof. William James of Har- ward, by reason of which he was elect ed to membership in the society, and since then he has been one of it's most active workers in compiling reports as sisted by special committees on vari- ous phases of psychic capacity.

Cole is accused of having obtained under false .Drctenses a. Mauser rifle, the property of Will Weinegard. The incident occurred in the Wellington saloon. Weinegard, early on Monday morning, brought to the place a, pack age Cont2jning the gun and requested the bartender. Cha lies Collins, to place it behind the bar for safe keeping, at the same time saying that he would. later in the day. call for it. At the time this conversation took place
 there wa,c no one in the saloon but the two persons holding the conversation and Cole Tsehind the bar the pack age remained until Collins went off shift, when he was relieved by Billy Hart. Collins explained that the pack
 age would be called for later.
 It was, but not by the real owner. Hart had hardly been on watch ten minutes when in rushed a man, sup posed to be Cole, who demanded the
 package he had left, and pointed out the one containing the gun. Hart supposed him to be the rightful owner, and thought nothing more about it un- til Weinegard came in about six o'clock and made inquiry as to where his bundle had been removed to. Hart, for a time, thought he had been made the victim of a joke, but the serious
 ness of the situation was soon dis 1 covered, and the affair reported to the police. A warrant was secured for the arrest of Cole from Justice Burnett s court and it will be before that mag | istrate that hc will be taken today for examination.
 Weinegard had waited for several
 weeks for the gun to arrive from Dead wood his former home, and it was to have been a gift to a friend.
