/ woman Thrown Through a Window.
/ This morning about 4 o'clock there
/ was a hot old time on Colorado ave
nue. between Second and Third
streets, in front OF tine restaurant
and ruoming house conducted by
| Frank Butler and wife.
Three men-two young men we'll
/ known around town and COW
puncher-and two women from 240
/ Colorado avenue, were the partici-
l pants in a general row.
Frank Butler states that about 4
a. m. he was awakened by the sound
OF people quarreling in front of his
establishment. Hot words were
passed, and then he heard the crash
ing OF glass and a heavy fall. Get
! ting out OF bed. he rushed to the
front of the floor and found that a
woman had been thrown through
one of the large windows in the front
of his restaurant and was laying on
the floor.
The woman got up quickly, and
! joining the other woman and two
| of the men, all started on a run
| down Colorado avenue toward the
/ corner of Second street.
Butler states that he started out
after the four. dressed only in his
night clothes, in an effort to identify
] the parties. The four ran down Sec
/ ond street and then turned down
| Main, and, as Butler is suffering
| from rheumatism, he was unable to
| keep up with them and they soon
/ gave him the slip. Butler returned
| home and dressed, and then went
up to the Pastime. There he found
/ one of the men, who was suffering
| from wounds on the head which We're
] In Il
/ been hit over the head with beer
bottle in the fight and his head had
| been badly cut up. He had his
wounds washed and given attention
and then went to his home and has
| been asleep most of the day
From the wounded man Butler Sc
| cured partial and disconnected ac-
count of the trouble.
II seems that the COW puncher and
one of the other men had been out
walking with the two women. The
| third man, the one that had his
head cut up, was a lover OF one of
| the women. and when he learned
/ that she was out with the other
woman and two men he became en-
ragged and laid for the crowd. In
| front of Buffers place he confront
ed the two men and two women and
| the row began. After a war of
words, blows were exchanged, and
one of the women was thrown
through the window. Then one of
the two men christened the third
mans head with a bottle of beer.
At this time Butler appeared and
the combatants scattered.
The woman who was thrown or
pushed through the window was con-
siderably bruised, but not seriously
hurt.
The row created much excitement
in the immediate neighborhood

Practical Arithmetic.

A teacher received the following
from a complaining parent a few days
ago, says the New Zealand Graphic
Sir: VIII you please for the future
give my boy some eesier somes to do
It mites. This Is what be brought
ONE two or three mites ago: If fore
gallons Of Bere will fill thirty-to pint
bottles, how many pint n half bot
ties will nine gallins fill? Well, we
tried and could make nothing of it all,
md my boy cried and sed he wouldn't
go back without doing it. So l had to
go and buy a nine-gallon key Of berc
which l could i'll afford to do. and then
we went and borrowed a lot Of wine
and brandy bottles, besides a few we
had by us. Well, we emptied the key
into the bottles and Their were nineteen,
and my boy put that down for an an

Ten million buffalo in 1865, LOCO III
1868, says Recreation. Twenty years
ago the black, shaggy bison of the
great west would have suificcd for G
procession. two abreast. reacling from
Point Barrow to the Straits of MaScl.
Ian, while today the surviving rem
nant would barely reach aroun two
city blocks.
But what is past is past; it will be
infinitely more profitable if we take
counsel and decide what we shall do to
protect the buffalo that remain, rather
than spend our days in grieving for
animals slain by a generation that has
nearly passed away. The II hopeful
phase of the situation is the slight in
crease in number of buffalo during the
last decade, for it encourages the be.
lief that. with adequate protection ana
skillful handling, the species may
even yet become numerous.
The buffalo breeds freely in zap
tivity, and, when well fed and allowed
ample liberty. seems unaffected by in
breeding. 1t is, therefore, quite posi-
BILE that were a sufficient number gath
cred together in a suitable range, pro-
tected and left to lead a natural life,
instead of hundreds, in a generation
or two there will be thousands.

Every mother possesses information
which is of vital interest to her young
daughter.
Too often this is never impaired or is
withheld until serious harm has result
ed to the growing girl through her
ignorance of natures mysterious and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls over-sensitiveness and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians, as they SO often withhold
their confidence from their mothers
and conceal the symptoms which ought
to be told to their physician at this
critical period.
When a girls thoughts become slug
gish, with headache, dizziness or a dis
position to sleep, pains in back or lower
limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude:
when she is a mystery to herself and
friends, her mother should come to her
aid, and remember that Lydia Z. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound will at
this time prepare the system for the
coming change, and start the menstrual
period in a young girls life without
pain Or irregularities.
Hundreds Of letters from young girls
and from mothers, expressing their
gratitude for what Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has accomplished
for them, have been received by the
Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., at
Lynn, Mass.
Miss Mills has written the two fol-
lowing letters to Mrs. Pinkham, which

Freak Stamps Eagerly Sought.

During the winter of $50 a sheet of
the ordinary o%ne-cent stamps with the
word &c q printed across the face
slipped through with Guam" upside
down, says the Kansas City Star.
Those stamps We're printed for the use
Of the island, and collectors haze
searched far and near for them. Only
a few have been secured by the col
l%ecters, and they bring stiff prices.
The people Of Guam know little about
the value set on such freaks by the
stamp collectors.
Back in the '70s, when the govern
ment used it's own distinctive set of
stamps for the several departments,
an error was made by the banknote
company which then held the contract
for making the stamps. The regular
color adopted by b Navy Depart
ment was blue. A sheet of the two
cent denomination was printed in
green. and the freak has now a mar
ket value of about $40 each. The
genuine. in blue. 10 worth twenty
times it's face value.
One collector was fortunate enough
TO corner the market by getting pos
| session Of a sheet of four-cent stamps
of the Columbian series which was
| printed by mistake in steel blue, whan
its right color should have been ultra
| marine blue. He got it at its face
! value, and when he wants to dispose
Of one he can readily get $50.
There are a number of other valu-
able freak stamps but the errors of
the bureau Of engraving and printing
have been remarkably few, consider
ing the immense number of sheets Of
| stamps turned out every year. Each
| sheet after being printed passes
! through n dozen or more hands before
it Is ready for the stool vault, and in
spectors and counters are always on
the lookout for errors in printing.

her to address Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn.
Mass, and tell her every detail of her

She will receive advice absolutely free,

followed. pat her on the right road to a

Mr.. Adamson found among his letters
ar envelope bearing the Brigborough

Tearing this open, he saw enclosed
another one addressed to
Mr.. John Saunders, Patent Agent,

With this was the following explain

MI. Adamson was q passionate man.
and the blood rushed to his head as he
stared at the address on the returned
envelope. 1t was Enthusiastically the
