other. Tommy's righteous indignation
was something fair to see. ''Give your
wives an allowance, boys" he would
say. "Let 'em have money Of their
own to spend. My wife has had an
allowance ever since our marriage, and
I tell you it pays" Well, after awhile
we were astonished to hear one day
that Tommy's wife had sued him for
divorce on the ground of nonmainte-
nance, and in the proceedings which
followed it developed that his much
boasted allowance was the sum of 81
a week. out of which Mrs. Tucker was
required to clothe herself. He doesn't
belong to our club now, but his chest
is as obtrusive and his tile sets at the
same angle as Of yore.
A Very Important Question.
This question of an allowance is a
pretty serious one, and the disposition
Of the woman in the case enters large
~ into it's consideration. Some women
never get beyond childhood mentally
and prefer to be treated like children
all their lives. They know nothing
about their husbands incomes and care
less if they keep them literally sup
piled with the luxuries their childish
natures demand. With such women
and that is the ancient and time hon
ored one which is based on the theory
that all women are irresponsible be-
ings and are to be considered property
Of higher Sort to be fed and clothed
and perhaps regarded with degree Of
affection, but not to be treated as men,
tai equals or to be given any active
part in domestic administration except
as upper servants. The great trouble
is that there are so many wives who
are treated in this manner who do not
deserve to be. The human dolls are, in
fact, mighty small minority of wo-
mankind. The supposed limitations Of
the sex have been fixed in the mascu-
line mind by the customs and preju-
dices Of centuries. and it is pretty hard
is being made and made more rapidly
in this country than in any other We
have learned that the average woman
has just about as much sense as the
average man, and, given the same
training and same conditions. she can
accomplish equally much. There al
ways seems to be a subtle difference
in their mental equipment which en-
ables woman to reach an instant con-
clusion by means of something we call
intuition. while man arrives at the

The Riot Act.

What is commonly meant by reading
tho riot act' is better known than the
origin of the phrase. The historical
riot act was passed by the British Par
lament in the reign Of George l. in
1714. 1t enacts that felony is commit
ted when twelve or more persons I'M
lawfully, riotously and unanimously
assemble together to the disturbance
Of the public peace, so to continue to-
cether for an hour after being COM
manded to dispense by the sheriff or
undersheriff or a justice or the mayor
of the borough.
In the reading Of the British riot
act. which is a necessary preliminary
to its being put into operation, it is not
customary to recite the whole of the
statute which is rather a long one, but
only the following proclamation, which
If contains: "Our sovereign lord the
king chargeth and commandeth all per
sons being assembled Immediately to
disperse themselves and peaceably to
denart to their habitations or to their
lawful business upon the pains con-
tanned in the act made in the first year
of King George for preventing tumults
and riotous assemblies. God save the
king !"-Chicago News.

HUGHTOWN, Scilly Islands, Dec,
14.-The American seven-masted schoon-
er, Thomas w. Lawson, the largest sail
ing vessel afoat, was wreck in Broad
sound, Sicily islands, during fierce
gale last night, and SO far as known of
her crew Of eighteen men, only one man
survived. The schooner turned turtle
and is now floating bottom up.
Three bodies have been found off
Annet island, an uninhabited islet of the
Sicily group. The sole survivor, who
has been landed at st. Agnes by the
st. Agnes lifeboat, is only partly con-
scious at this writing.
Lifeboats in Terrible Sea.
Signals of distress were heard at the
Bishop Rock lighthouse at o'clock yes
terday afternoon. Two lifeboats put out
and found the Lawson anchored in q
dangerous position just north of Gun
ner's Rock. Great seas were running
and the lifeboats, although they stood by
for several hours, were unable to render
assistance.
Obliged to Put Back.
At about ten minutes before 3 this
morning the lookouts at the St. Agnes and
Bishops Rock lighthouses and the coast
guards missed the lights of the Lawson
at the same time, and when "a lifeboat
returned to the scene, oil floating on the
waves indicated the disaster. A few
minutes later the lifeboat crew found the
Lawson bottom up.
At the request of the captain of the
Lawson the ST. Mary's lifeboat, the
masts of which had been broken off in
attempting to rescue the crew of the
schooner. put back with the purpose of
Telegram hing for a tug to come to the
assistance of the Lawson. The st. Ag-
mes lifeboat was left standing by: A
little later this lifeboat had to leave, as
one of it's crew was dying of exposure,
while the others were almost exhausted.
Three Bodies Found.
Searching in the vicinity the ST Agnes
boat picked up a man named Allen and
found three bodies off Annet island.
The gale is still blowing fercely and
the seas are running high. A doctor
from St. Mary's has gone out in a life

CLOUGH AS A WITNESS.
Former Minnesota Governor Believes
Lumbermen Can Make Good Profit
Despite High Rail Rates.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. IT
Former Gov. D. NJ. Clough of Mime
sota now connected with the Park-Nick-
erson Lumber company of Everett,
Wash, was a witness for the defendants
in the Washington and Oregon lumber
hearings today before the interstate COM
merce commission.
Gov. Clough testified that his company
had made more than $780, 900 during the
last Eve years in the purchase, cutting
and shipping OF lumber. On cross-exam-
nation he said that on common lumber
SHIPPED to San Francisco bay points his
company had made no money, its profits
being made on the high grades of lum
Der produced and shipped by rail.
1t was his belief that most of the large
lumber companies could produce lumber
and market it at the advanced rates fixed
by the railways at a fair profit. Pressed
by attorneys for the complainants, Gov.
Clough admitted that while other com
panies were complaining of a lack of
cars for the handling of their products
his company had not been embarrassed
in that way. He did not admit that this
was due to any peculiarly close relations
with the railway companies which nis
company enjoyed.

NEW COINS ALL RIGHT
MEET WISHES OF BANKERS AND
ARE STAMPED so THEY CAN
BE STACKED.
EAGLE KEEPS HIS PANTALOONS
At Least Trousers Are Hidden and So
Directors to Feature Are Now
Pleased.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. IT.
The new 500 gold pieces, so designed as
to better conform with the tastes of
bankers, is now in circulation. The new
design substantially conveys st. eau
denis ideas, but has been altered in
details to such an extent that praise
and admiration has supplanted the criti-
cism which broke out several weeks ago
when the original coin left the Phila-
delphia mint.
Eagle Keeps Pants. e
The new double eagle can be stacked
quite as easily as any other coin. The
high relief to which bankers found ob-
lection has been greatly reduced, though
both sides are artistically concave, the
eagle and the goddess standing out bold
ly.
The new design is virtually compro-
mise with regard to the ''pantalooned'
eagle. 1t cannot be said that the de-
signer dispensed with the leg adornment
of the eagle, yet those who found OBJ
jections to this feature have no further
grievance, as the legs are Obscured.
The figures 1907 have displaced the
Roman enumerals. The sharp edge of the
coin has been eliminated. Around it
are stars and the phrase 'E Pluribus
Unum."
Big Demand for Coins.
There was a great demand for the new
issue yesterday, when the first consign-
ment of 100000 was delivered to the
cashier of the mint for circulation. About
half of this sum was distributed among
local banks and trust companies. The
coiners are striking off the coins at a
rapid clip and today a second consign-
ment was delivered.
Old Design at Premium.
The error of the designer of the old
double eagle, if such it may be called,
had a singular result. There were 5000
of the original design issued, and while
this meant 100000 in circulation the
high premius of $40 on each coin brought
$24O,OOO It is said that none of the
eagles are in circulation, as they all
have been bought UP by collectors
