Long Hair a Mark OF nunv.

In Olden times excessively long hair
was considered a mark of honor and
rank. For many centuries long hair
was In France the distinctive mark OF
kings. The ancient Persians and Par
thians of high caste wore long flowing
hair, while the poorer classes were
obliged to cut theirs short Homer
speaks of the long haired Greeks by
way of distinction.
The Gauls considered long hair n
mark Of honor, but Caesar obliged
them to cut 1t off in token of submits
sion. Long hair was thought by the
Franks to denote high birth, and the
Goths looked upon 1t as distinctive
mark Of culture and honor, Short hair
was considered by nearly all the old
nations to denote thraldom, and even
now criminals have their heads shaved.

OF course, the Commission want
expert railroad accountants to

Not prineely salary, but still
pretty good for the government
service. The only trouble is that
the men who are capable of filling
the places are mostly in the en-
ploy of the railroads already. If
they take the examination they
are pretty certain to be fired for
doing it by the railroads employing
them. Of course, they might take
the examination and not get the
job. So most of them are figuring
that the risk is not equal to the
chance and there is a fear that
there will not be many eligibles to
qualify.

The expression "Fudge" which is
heard so often nowadays, Is not a new
one. On the contrary, its origin dates
back to the reign of Charles IL, when
there was sea captain who was
named Fudge
No matter how unsatisfactory his
voyage, this nautical man always re-
turned with an endless string of pre-
posterous tales of great deeds and sue

The story is told of clergyman,
who, after he had finished his sermon,
heard one of his congregation say,

ton and asked him to retract what he

What a Hatpin Revealed.

A certain large millinery establish
ment makes a speciality of women's
trimmed hats at 50 and $40. 1t Is cut
ting largely into the trade of the small
er high priced dealers. A short time
ago a woman of fashion went into the
establishment mentioned and tried or
several hats, but found none to suit
her. Before going out she missed Il
valuable hatpin. A careful search
failed to bring 1t to light, and It's dis
appearance remained n mystery a
few days later the customer, still look
ing for n suitable hat, visited one OF
the expensive millinery shops in the
city. Among the hats shown to her,
none of which was priced lower than
$35 was one that closely resembed
one of the hats she had tried on in the
ten dollar store. She took it up to eX-
anime it more closely. AS she felt
the trimming she noticed that the end
of hatpin was concealed beneath a
bunch of artificial flowers. Drawing 1t
out, she discovered it to be her missing
hatpin.-New York Tribune.

Artists are not as class the happi-

WASHINGTON LETTER.
lFrom our Regular Correspondent


Washington, July Goth, 1907.
Officially the explosion last week
on the battleship Georgia is as
much a mystery as ever. 2But
some small admissions on thegpart
Of the Navy Department and talk
among naval officers is helping1 to
clear it up and show, that it has
at the bottom the same element
that is back of most crimes in
human life, the gold hunger.
1t will be remembered that the
explosion occurred in the after
turret OF the Georgia off Boston
during target practice. Accord
ing to the official statement, a
charge of about 200 pounds of
smokeless powder was being load
cd into one Of the u inch guns
when it exploded. 1t was said
that a floating spark, coming from
somewhere, had set fire to the bag
containging one Of the powder
charges, and that this had gone
off, setting fire to the other bag.
Here was a mystery. 1t was init
mated that the floating spark might
have come from the smoksstack of
the battleship or that it might have
been a spark wandering around in
the air after discharge of the gun.
This explanation was good enough
for the outside world. But those
familiar with the construction of
w9rships know that it was almost
aphysical impossibilty for spark
TO "foat" into turret, The
automatic gun ports and inside
ladders were all against such
supposition. Also, the silk bags
in which the powder charge is ZEN
cased are not flimsy enough to be
SET on fire by any ordinary spark.
The fact remained that ten of
the men in the turret died of their
burns and a dozen others were so
seriously injured that several more
of them still may die. The De
partment was of course shocked
and grieved. So was everyone
who know of the accident. But
5hc Department had no idea how it
happened. All of the electric APP
paratus in the turret had been care
fully insulated in view of some
previous accidents Of the same sort.
All OF the guns had been fitted
with automatic air blastsI,toi pre-
vent Glare backs", that is hot
gases coming out of the breech of
the gun when another charge was
being put in. And most of all,
there was never according to regu-
lations a second charge of Fpowder
in the turret before the.one in the
gun had been fired. There are
automatic doors leading down to
the powder magazine that are shut
as soon as one charge for the gun
comes up and the turret is clear:of
any power except that in the gum
There are good many fair sized
jobs that will probably go begging
Tor the lack of competent men to
fill them. The Interstate Com
merce Commission is about to start
its new system Of railroad account
ing. The Commission hasgfurnish
