WOMEN WHO PLAY GOLF.
But Few Americans Look Well While
Playing, But They Play
Well.

Ladies links" is a term which
never became as widespread on this
side Of the ocean az on the other. In
England and Scotland when women
first took up the game they were not
permitted on the historical courses, but
were forced to play on shorter or
pocket handkerchief links, especially
laid out for them.
Women in this country have always
been permitted to rlay on our longest
sourses, says the New Idea Magazine,
although they are closed to them on
certain days. Very long and sporty
holes, on which hazards are so placed
as to spoil an average woman's drive,
have ladies' tees from which a SIM
hiar stroke would not be penalized,
but as driving is, on the whole, one
of the strongest points of many Nom-
en- champions, such special arrange
ments are done away with in tourna-
ments, and the long course is played.
The greater number Of to-day's wom-
en- champions are self-taught, although
they have had professional instruction
in some part of their careers. The
best results are gained, not by going
around the course dozens of times, but
BY practising the same shot for half
an hour at time, studying scien-
dfcally cause and effect.

The old-time actor had peculiar and
primitive views as to elocution and its
uses. remember writes Richard
Mansfield, in Atlantic, certain old
Friend of mine, who, when he recited
she opening speech in Richard III"
and arrived at the line "In the deep
bosom of the ocean buried" suggested
the deep bosom Of the ocean by send
ing his voice down into his boots. Yet
these were fine actors, to whom GER
tain young gentlemen, who never saw
than, constantly refer. The methods
Of the stage have completely changed,
and with them the tastes Of the peo-
pie. The probability is that some Of
the old actors of only few years ago
would excite much merriment In their
aelineation of tragedy. A very great
Tsgedian Of a past generation was
wont, In the tent scene in Richard
Ill.," to hold a piece of soap in his
mouth, so that, after the appearance
Of the ghosts, the lather and froth
might dribble down his chin! and he
employed, moreover, a trick sword,
which ratified hideously; and, what
with his foam-fecEed face, his roll
ing eyes, his inarticulate groans, and
ais rafting blade, tie small boy in
the gallery was scared into frenzy

Health as q Business Asset.

The average man is not accustomed
to regard his health as his very best
asset, yet that is precisely what 1t Is.
The man who will accord due regard to
his health, from strictly business
standpoint will 60 farther, last long
err and accomplish more in the end
than one who makes health an after
consideration. Success which is at
tanned at the expense Of health il
worth absolutely nothing to the man
who attains 1t. There is no pleasure
either in the process or in the final
result.-St. Louis Republic.

FRENCH TOYS FOR BEACH.
Are More Elaborate Than These
Made for the American
Youngsters.

The toys with which French chill
dren play on the bench include va
ried assortment Of implements and
paythings to use in the sand at the
seashore
First, there is sand screen. such as
builders use, but in miniature, and
which, with a brace at the back, can
be set up in like manner on the beach,
Tor screening the sand; and then there
is little hand sieve or SITTER which
can be used for the same purpose.
With these sets there is a pan to
carry sand In, and there are a shovel
and sand scoop 10 dig with, and
there is also little rake, and besides
all these there are little tin molds or
forms in the shape OF fishes and shells
and capital letters Of the alphabet;
and finally there goes with each set,
as part of 1t, skipping rope.
Certainly pretty elaborate outfits are
the little French sand sets for chill
aren.

FITZGERALD REPLIES.
Answers Questions Satisfactorily To
Stuhhs and Caoital.

Stubhs and Capital.
w. J. Fitzgerald, of Dodge City, the
Republican nominee for lieutenant
scyc~nor, - promptly made frank
statement of his position regarding an
ti-pass and primary election legisla-
ton in reference to questions that have
been propounded to him by represen-
tatives of the organization headed
by w. r. Stubs. He fav-
ors the enactment of an anti-pass law
and a primary election law and his
statement is right in line with his past
record, which is evidence of his abso-
lutte sincerity. Following are extracts
from the more important sections of
his statement:

DEFENSE FOR SHYLocK.
Senator Harris, In the 1897 Session,
Talked for the 2 Per Cent Per
Minute Man.

Minute Man.
Topeka, -. When the Populists
swept the State of Kansas in 1896,
electing a governor and majority OF
both houses of the legislature, 1t was
supposed that one measure that would
he passed by the legislature and APP
proved by the governor would be a
regulation of interest rates. Nothing
had been talked about more In Popu.
list centers or written about more In
Populist literature.
Several bills were introduced in both
houses, bearing on this subject. One
bill regulating interest charges was
introduced in the senate by Senator
Sheldon of Ottawa Senator Sheldon
was himself banker and for that rea-
son-if for no other-his bill was
conservative and reasonable measure.
It was, however, defeated with the as
sistance of Senator Harris and Senator
Farrelly and others-Senator Harris
making speech against the measure,
in the course of which he took Occas-
ion to make an eloquent defense of Mr..
Shylock. He claimed that Shylock had
been wronged and imposed upon and
although he had been dead several
hundred years, he proposed, even at
that late day, to see that his character
was properly placed before the public.
1t must be said that this showed con-
siderable nerve on the part of Senator
Harris. He is one Of the first public
men that has arisen within the past
three hundred years to make a defense
of Shylock and his character.
There may have been some reason
in his contention. Mr.. Shylock was
simply insisting on the right to carve
a certain amount of light meat from
the breast bone of Mr.. Antonio. Why
he desired this meat is not stated. He
may have wished to inaugurate pri-
vate packing house. 1t was a part Of
his contract with Antonio, and, of
course, the fulfllment Of this contract
would necessarily have resulted in the
demise of Mr.. Antonio But that was
not the business of Mr.. Shyloci.
We do mont cite this particularly In
criticism of Mr.. Harris, but to show
his willingness to arise as a defender
Of the money power as represented by
Shylock in his day. This, as we have
intimated, showed considerable amount
of nerve On the part of Senator Har-
irs, but it would probably not meet
with the approval of the old-time Pop
ulist.
