Shortly before Mrs Inman was

to give her name to the police.
The woman was passing under tree

man, whose person was exposed from

fierce struggle followed in which the
woman finally escaped after much OF

How Holidays VIII be Observed In
The Nation.
NEW YORK. Dec. 21.-To the eye
of the prophet nothing looms up as
important on the horizon of the COM
ing week as the coming of Santa
Claus and the annual festival which
marks his advent While the cry of
hard times" has gone up over the
land, it is unlikely that 1t will affect
to any great degree, the oxuberance
of the holiday spirit.
President Roosevelt and his family
will spend the day quietly at the
White House. as In the past, the chief
executive will lay aside all his ofic-
ial cares and devote the day unresery-
eddy to his wife and children. The
usual distribution of gifts will take
place in official circles at the capital
and there will be numerous social
functions of a holiday nature during
the week. Most of the senators and
representatives have already left
Washington for their homes to spend
the holidays with their families. and
by the beginning of the week the city
Will be almost deserted by all except
the Washingtonians.
Despite the financial panic, the
poor of all the large cities aud towns
Of the country will be provided with
Christmas cheer. In New York, while
the contributions have not been as
large or as liberal as In past years
and many Of the poor are even poor
er than usual. It is unlikely that any
deserving person Will be allowed to
go hungry, although the dinners and
baskets may be on a less elaborate
scale than usual. From Boston. Phil
adelphia, Chicago. St. Louis. San
Francisco and other great eenters OF
population come reports of prepare
lions for great feasts for the unfor-
tunate. In all of which, as usual, the
Salvation Army is taking a prominent
part.

advantage of the holiday season to
hold their annual conventions. While

SEWERS AT COLVILLE

The letting of the sewer contract
at Colville. Washington, is another
evidence that Occur d'Alene is pay
ing two prices for its sewer system.
The price at Colville is 81 a foot for
an 18-inch outlet while the cost to
this city is almost 50 a foot for the
whole system, including mains as
small as eight inches. Here is the re-
port:
Contract for Sewer Outlet
"COLVILLE, Wash, Dec. 2O.-The
Colville city council last night award
ed to Charles A. Hunt the contract
for laying the 1900 feet of 1s-inch
sewer outlet from the western city
limits to the Colville river for 81 a
foot The work is to be completed
within 80 days from the date of the
contract. The new sewer system will
follow Immediately upon completion
of the outlet"
1t was stated yesterday by an in
terested citizen that an action would
be brought to test the sewer contract
and bonds and the Colville contract
shows that the complaints are found
ed on good grounds. There are no
new developments in the matter but
it is said that a thorough investiga-
ton of the system is to be had.

BREEZY GOSSIP OF NEW YORK
Letter of News and Views ON Inter-
esting Subjects.

esting Subjects.
NEW YORK, N. Y, Dec. 90
Less than twenty-four hours after
M. Alexandra Ular, editor of LIE Petit
Journal, the most popular newspaper
in Paris, had set foot in the metrop-
oils of the new world, no less than
twenty-four reporters had approach
ed him to secure his opinion of Amer
lea, American people and American
institutions. 1t is a curious fact that
those who have lived in America all
their lives and who know something
about the country should never be
asked to express their opinion; but
let distinguished foreigner step
from the gangplank of a liner, and
he is Immediately beseiged by inter
rogaters of the press, who publish his
statements as divine wisdom, SO be 1t
they happen to be flattering to the ma
tiOnal conceit. And they usually are,
since no country is quite so alluring
40 bhO OAS VI WHICH VIC hnOW uOJHlHB.
Replying to question No. 8 on the
list of problems to be presented by
the press to incoming foreigners, M.
Ular said:
mo, | do not find the American
woman nearly so charming nor intel
ligent as the French woman. They
have not the same grace as French
women and, in my opinion, have not
the same attractiveness. Neither
are they so well dressed as the women
of Paris, although most of them
spend many times as much money for
clothing as their French sisters. You
know, it is not the cost that makes a
woman's gown beautiful; it is the
way she wears it"
When Mrs. Cobden-Sanderson gave
vent to similar opinions a few weeks
ago, | dismissed her criticisms with
scorn. English are VIGOROUSLY the
least charming in the world, and 1t
was exceedingly immodest for one of
them to find flaws in Americas fair
femininity.
The statement of M. Ular is wor-
thy of more consideration. French.
men are admittedly connoiseurs in
the study of femininity, and to this
natural insight and esthetic SENSIBLE
ity NJ. Ular adds the acute powers of
observation possessed by all news
paper men. Evidently, his statement
cannot be dismissed with a shrug of
the shoulders and an airy percifiage.
American women must make good.
In extenuation of the charms of
the fair sex of Uncle Sans land. 1t
need only to be pointd out that NJ
Ular's opinion was based on an in
spection of the women of New York
alone.
