SOCIAL SWAY OF WOMAN.

Different Valuation Il Made IN
Europe Than in America.
male ascendency Is as real and at
least as strong In America as in any
European country short of Turkey. The
social sway Of woman Is due to a diff
ferent valuation Of society by the Amer
lean man from that of European coun-
tries. What Henry James and other
critics affirm, that the American man
Is a business man, political and a
clubman, but leaves society largely to
his wife and daughter, Is quite true,
but what apparently they fail to recog-
nize is the characteristic mental att-
tude Of the male American toward this
social life" says writer in London.
His extravagant wife and daugh-
tiers, with their receptions, diamonds,
trips to Europe and sprightly talks On
books and art, are to him primarily
big entertainment an expensive, elab-
crate show, which he can afford to keep
up and likes to pay for. The average
successful male American would no
more think Of competing with his wife
In the display of social arts and graces
than the Londoner who visits Maske-
lyme & Devant's would think of vying
with the mystery men there, but his
real control Of the social order Is not
less deeply rooted on that account.
$50 far as fiction holds the mirror
up to American nature 1t exhibits quite
a significant paucity of sex emotion
in its more spontaneous, mastering
fow. Possibly the conquering Ameri-
can woman owes much Of her triumph
in circles where self-possession counts
for 20 much to this touch Of inner
chill. That she owes anything to in
tellectual superiority over the male OF
her kind cannot be conceded, for no
such superiority exists.
"She reads more and talks more, be.
cause that belongs to her decorative
function. The thought Of America
owes little to her, though she has long
enjoyed more ample opportunities for
education than the other sex. Her
contribution toward serious literature
art and science Is small, almost negli'
gible. Almost all the best brain work
in America, even in fields where WON.

END OF THE LUCY WALKER.

Steamboat Race on the Mississ1ppi
that Cost Many Lives.
Passing the place few days ago
where this noted Cherokee Indian used
to live, we were reminded Of the history
and tragic death Of the man, Joe vann.
who was the most noted Cherokee of
his time, says the Fort Gibson Post.
He used to live about three miles below
Fort Gibson, opposite the mouth OF
Bayou Manard, on the opposite side Of
the Arkansas River.
He owned 500 slaves, 300 Of whom
were men. He had thousands Of acres
Of land, many cattle and horses, some
being racing stock. He owned the first
steamboat that came up the Arkansas
River to Fort Gibson, when the United
States government had line of boats
to this place to supply the large garri-
son then stationed here. This boat was
named the Lucy Walker, and In those
days was noted for her speed. She ran
between Fort Gibson and lower Missls-
sippi ports, even to New Orleans. carry
Ing passengers and freight
Vann was a strange Indian, unlike
any known before or since, and was
known as a dead game sport" open
hearted, brave and generous to fault.
He was good to all his slaves and they
liked him and would obey him in any
thing He won and lost large sums on
horse-racing and gambling, but it was
all the same to him, for he kept up his
end Of the sport at all times and sea-
sons. This was along the 30's and 40's,
not long after the Cherokees took pos
session OF the country.
vann had one fault which ultimate
ly caused his tragic death. He could
not brook a boasting rival and would
not take a dare" While his steam.
boat had no rival for speed on the Ar.
kansas River, from its mouth at the
Mississippi to Little Rock and Fort
Gibson, there were two or three on the
Mississippi River, between St Louis
and New Orleans. One Of these boats
said to be the fastest on the river, at
tempted to pass him on the way down
Vann had a crew Of thirty negroes
said to have no superiors on the river
He told the boys that the Lucy Walker
must be kept ahead, no matter at what
cost. An allowance Of grog was giver
to each, and all promised to stand uI
to the work. The rival boat was gain
ing On them. The usual fuel failed t.
give sufficient speed. Vann went around
and told the hands to gather up every
thing that would burn. Tar and bacor
were thrown into the furnace and soer
the Lucy Walker was forging ahead o.
her rival.

The boilers were seething and foam

became alarmed, but vann was coel a
a cucumber. He told his negro crev
that they would beat the rival boat O

About that time there was an awfu
explosion and there was nothing lef

CHAPTER XVIII.

It was twelve o'clock when I left the
Golden House and strolled quietly down
to Liberty street. The larger part Of the
soldiers had been drawn oil, but couple
of companies still kept guard in the Pr
azza. The usual occupations of life were
going on amid q confused stir of excite
ment, and I saw by the interest my ap-
pearancs aroused that some part at least
OF my share in the nights doings had
leaked ont. The Gazette had published
a special edition, in which it hailed the
advent of freedom, and, while lauding Nc
Gregor to the skies, bestowed a warm
commendation on the noble Englishman
who, with q native love of liberty, had
taken on himself the burden of Aureata-
land in her hour of travail" The meta
phor struck me as inappropriate, but the
sentiment was most healthy; and when !

Of this class of immigrants to arrive

farming districts of the country.

The Tobacco Crop.

That the United States has become
the largest producer of tobacco in the
world Is shown by an official bulletin
containing an estimate Of the extent
and value of the crop raised last year.
In all about 796,O99 acres Of tobacco
were grown, producing an average
yield of 1872 pounds to the acre, or a
total of 6S2 ,42S,53O pounds The av-
erage value Of the crop was 10 cents
per pound, or total Of about $6S. 232, :
CAT. While it is almost impossible to
comprehend the magnitude of the val
ue Of the manufactured products of
tobacco, a glance at the total figures
may convey some idea Of the develop
ment of this great and distinctive
American industry.
In 1900 the total value of the manu-
featured products of tobacco was
S2S3, O76, 546. In the manufacture 142,-
1T people were employed, who earned
total wage of S49.S52, 4S4.
