A GRAND PRIX GOWN
Josephine SabeI's Creation Took tn
Grand Prize in Paris. ~,

Josephine sabel is wearing this week at
the Orpheum a creation which was suffi-
GENTLY individual, even in Paris, to win
the grand prix last June. It is the
custom during the grand prix for the
managers Of the stars appearing at the
Partisan ,theaters-and every star must
have manager in Paris, or else he or she
is not a star-to select a committee to de-
eide which actress has created the most
stunning gown. This stage aggregation
tours the theaters, sitting in silent iudg.
ment upon each gown worn for It's edit
cation. Then the committee adjourns to
some cafe, and over coffee and absinthe,
makes it's decision. $ Y Z
Miss Sabel was the prize-winner last
June, and in accordance with custom.
was presented with a handsome bouquet
done in the colors and model Of her gown
-'one Of the most beautiful floral pieces
ever hope to see,' she says. The prize
winning gown is of chiffon and lace, in
vanious shades of green, with tints OF
heliotrope, heliotrope velvet roses and Sc
quins. It was made by Charpautier.
This is the second visit Of Miss Sabel tc
Minneapolis, the first being with the San
dow company here eleven years ago. AS
Miss Sabel is "booked'' ahead for 3O(
| weeks, mostly In Europe, 1t is doubtful
| if she is seen in Minneapolis again for {
4 number Of years.

Not Suited to King Cotton.

Lond,p, March 20.--The report Of
the commissioners sent out by the
British government to investigate the
cotton growing possibilities in east
Africa is published this evening in the
form Of q "White Paper" It SAYS;
"Unless difficulties which at present
are to be insuperable can be removed
cotton cultivation in east Africa will
never be undertaken on any consider
able scale" First among the diff eul
ties the commissioners place labor, on
account of the apathy Of the natives
and their disinolination to work. The
total area devoted to cotton growing
under European supervision can
scarcely exceed a few thousand acres.
The commissioners opinion is that
the only solution of the difficulty is
indentured labor from India or China.

it is still true that gray mules never

they die, as this one did. Perhaps it

A Story OF Tom Marshall.

Tom Marshall, Kentucky's famous
wit, attended phre nologist's lecture
one night. Marshall had been drink
ing. and when he returned to his hotel
after the lecture he drank more. The
drink gave him belief in his phrenulo.
gical powers, and he declared that he
could "read" heads as we'll as the leo
ture. So it was decided to test his
skill upon some Of the guests Of the
hotel. Both ladies and gentlemen as=
aembled in the narlor, and Marshaii,
who knew most Of them, furnished an
hours uproarious fun by hitting off
their failings. When he had finish
ed an empty headed dandy whose
head had not been examined loudly
and pompously called attention to
the fact that Marshall had neglected
him. II beg your pardon, sir" said
Marshall, 'but you must really ex-
cuse me. I am too drunk to read
small print by oandlelight. "-Argo-

HUMAN FRACTIONS.
Tho Relations They Bear TO the Math.
:. ematicai Brand,

me Relations They Bear TO the math-
ematioai Brand.
Fractions have never occupied my
mind since that golden age out Of
which was rudely thrust some thir-
ty years ago. But recently the curl
Gus personality they used to have
for my childish terror was recalled
to me. 81 know fractions" my niece,
Marjory, declared to me the other
day, with conscious wisdom. "There
are two kinds common fractions
ana Ieeimels. All that are not deci-
mails are common or vulgar"
"Cemnsc or vulgar!" The for
gotten nTafs came back from afar,
mere coa1unctions Of curious sylla-
bles without mathematical signifi-
aance, but pushing strange ideas
ahead of them. Why should there
suddenly have been opened up to me
strange and hunian aristocracy
among fractions whereby one order
should be assigned the place of eg-
clusion and made the shil'Loleth,
even among boys.-that sing.e class
of humanity to whom we look for
virgin and therefore true judg-
ment-while all the rest Of this
mathematical half world shorld be
tagged with double deros alton !?
Whence is the sinister power aud the
SNUG respectability of the decimal? /?
Has it to do with the money that it
stands for? Has the calculating
arithmetic done this human thing
also?
EMarjory, there is such thing,
is there not, as an improper frac-
tion?"
ooh, yes, there is. I know about
that too. An improper fraction is a
vulgar fraction whose numerator is
greater than its denominator."
1t would appear, then, that the
arithmetic appreciation Of good be-
havior- is close to the human. A
fraction has no business to be great
er than it appears to be, ne matter
how many integers it may actually
contain. Having the body of a
Common fraction, a common frac-
ticn it shall be, and an improper one
besides-a case of explicit misbe-
havior grated upon a general vul-
garity.--Scribner's.

Hotel for Negroes.

Muskogee, I. T., March 13.--Du-
rant, which never allows the sun to
set on q negro in the town, has decided
under pressure, to convert the old FIRE
station into hostelry for negro at
tendants at the sessions Of the Federal
Court. Judge Humphrey notified the
citizens that they must provide q
place for the negroes TO stay who were
Witnesses IN ihe Court or ne would
move the Court to some other town.
The Durant News in summing up
the situation, says:
There is no beating around the
bush about it, the facts are. before US,
and it is either care for the negroes or
kiss the Court good Bye
It was determined at recent meet
ing Of the Democrats Of the town to
care for the negroes during Court
terms, and the old FIRE station, which
will be set aside for chat purpose,
will be- known as the "Booker 7.

there was none to hear her.
But the rumor was lie, and he
came back.
sHe has done well and has come
back right, Margot," said the old
woman. She looked at her daugh-
ter-in-law with uncompromising
eyes. @He could give you fine clothes
now and the best looking house in
Keston."
Then for the first time was MIR
got's calm broken, Ind she was

back to him!" sine cried fercely.
She threw down her work and left
the room.
How was Jane to know that in
that moment her heart was stolen
from her, and she felt in its place
but lump Of heavy gold tnat tore
her breast? Wherever she went she
felt it there, and it hurt sorely.
When she passed David in the street
her fingers shook, but that weight in
her bosom pressed, and she remen.-
bered his gold and passed on. Oh,
it was i'll to be without heart and
have only q lump Of gold that must
always stand between herself and
the man she loved!
"He is rich now" said Margot,
and she was careful thatshe did not
meet him again. She spent much
time in planning that her ways
might not touch his.
In the evening she sewed still,
and she was sewing when Jane Greet
came to her with the news which
she thoEght SO i'll.
ooh, you were wise woman, Mar
got, she said, "to keep away from
such a Cool. No one but fool
would lose all his money in going se-
cnrity for such man as John Stan
ton is. David is o rich man no more.
Every penny that fs brought back
with him is frittered away and all
else that he had besides. Be thank
full, Margot Greet, :nat you are not
my sons wife in anything but
name!!" n
She went away, red eyed and
furious old woman, but Margot sat
on like one stunned.
Then she arose and put away her
sewing. She did not set it. on the
little table, las che always did, but
rolled itssup and, with a curiously
impatient gesture, set it away in old
James drawer.
That's finished with" said she.
Yet the, sewing was not nearly done.
Afterward she put on hieif. i Hat, a I and
the shawl which she usually put over
her head when she ran ont she
crossed upon her arm. Sic cast one
look around the little room and to-
ward the staircase where Jane had
sdisappe peared. Then she opened the
door and went into the street.
sS That was curionsly} quiet, and
there was fog. It was but one
short year since Margot Greet had
5quarreled with her husband and,
gone away. !,

streets and around the corners just
as surely as he had done, but she
was not unconscious of the way she>
