WoMAN's CROWN OF GLORY.
What Fuss They Do Make with 1t
at Any and All Times.

Women have great times with their
hair says the Atchison Globe. If they
visit in a dry climate they are sure
to say when they come home: MY
hair acted lovely; it did not come out
Of curl at ALL"
If they go where it is damp they
say when they come home: 1T was
the worst place for hair; my hair
was as straight as a string all the
time
Once in three or four weeks they
wash their hair and then they tell
each other how they cannot do thing
with their hair, as it has just been
washed For week or two before it
is washed they say it is a disgrace
they do not wash their hair; that it
is so sticky they cannot do thing
with it.
The women are always telling each
other they look horrid with their hair
down low, or else they would not be
seen with it done high. Their hair is
either all coming out or else they can
not imagine what has happened, but
it is coming in thick and lovely"
AS they walk down the street the
women are forever reaching for their
back hair and catching up short locks
with hairpins, or feeling to see if their
hair is coming down When they get
in front of mirror the very first
thing the women look at is their hair
and twitch it one way or the other.
No matter what any woman has on
her mind, her hair takes first place.

that a chancellor crisis" is imminent
Leading newspapers assert that Elm
peror William cOntemplates the ap-

of the general staff, as Won BuelOw 5
successor. A strOnge court camarilla,
led by Prince Philip Won Eulenburg
who aided the emperor in writing the
Song to Aegir," is working against
the present chancellor. The report
that BuelOw will retire is rendered the
more probable because of the condition
Of his health, which Will hardly permit
him to take part in the heated debates
expected at the next session Of the
rei"hstag.
TIE Lokal Anzeiger says that the
minister of agriculture, Herr Won Pod.

Xxi, who has been the emperor's favor

usual career for German cabinet Of
ficer. stepping from a commander of
cavalry into the higher civil service
without training in the lower grades.
Notwithstanding his administrative
talents, Herr Won POdielski got into
deep difficulties because he took the
view that Germany was able to raise
at home enough animals to supply the
national demand for meat.

Our Greatest Arsenal.

During the Civil War Rock Island
was called into unexpected service. At
the very outbreak Of hostilities the
island suggested itself as a suitable
place to care for the prisoners of war.
and extensive barracks were construct
ed, with hospital, officers quarters
and other necessary buildings. Over
10000 confederate prisoners were con-
fined there
Horace was indeed wise when he
cOunseled to prepare for war in times
Of peace, but that advice was disre-
garded, and when, in 1898, war was
declared with Spain, it found us un-
prepared, but the Rock Island Arsenal
promptly responded to the call. The
force of workmen was increased from
500 to nearly 5000, and the necessary
articles were poured out in like pro-
portion. Even then it was ia days
before the soldiers could be made
ready for action.
Had Spain been in position to take
advantage of the delay, our victory
might have been less decisive.
1t is not the object Of the arsenal
to encourage war, but to prepare for
it when 1t becomes inevitable; in the
words of Washington: ITO be pre-
pared for war is the most effectual
means of preserving peace"-Four-

who fought their way to California
during the great gold rush, was in st.

Frank Blair, of Chicago, and the two
dined at the Planters and later de-
parted together for Oakland.
Mr.. Wainwright is active and able
to travel alone. He made the trip
from Oakland to Philadelphia alone
and returned as far as st. Louis.
where his nephew met him. The two
will finish the journey together.
Mr.. Wainwright grew reminiscent
last night when he was seen in the
lobby of the Planters.
