Home Circle
As q Girl Sees It.

Dear Editor: Will you permit ore
OF the girl readers OF your paper to oc-
cupy a little space in your highly ap-
preciated Home Circle department.
l will begin, girl-like, by asking a
question. Has no n seen axood girl
lately? Are girls nowadays much
worse than those Of yore? The aver
age newspaper would make you think
so. Every journal (your own except
ed) which l pick up has some or more
columns devoted to things against
women, until / nave become frighten-
ed, and find myself wondering il 1,
too, am one of those dreadful Great
ures. And are those articles written
by men? IL SO, they must be men
without homes or families, who have
mixed withsa debaSed class Of society.
Surely no honorable gentleman would
pen an article such as we daily peruse,
denouncing all the gentler Sea as ex-
trava"ant, jealous, faithless. nay,
even immodest, and no home to re-
ceive the kiss Of a dear wife or meet
the innocent eyes Of a bevy Of sisters
or daughters. These articles SOW the
seed in the minds of young men, for
thoughts and feelings that would
never have risen there without teach
ing. Now l am young. and am
w)rdly wise, at least, yet | nave had
my little experience, and | must say
that l have met with many pure, good
women, kind mothers. loving wives,
dutiful daughters, affectiOnate sisters;
women who are not for running their
husbands Or fathers by extravagance;
who are not falling in love with every
handsome mar they see; who are not
clipping every day with the family
phySic an or husbands friend; but
sensible in every respect. And l have
met very good men. l regret it, | do
not wish to speak aga.ns the men,
for l rather like them and am willing
to say that my experience has been.
perhaps unfortunate. l am inclined
10 believe that as 10 all ages there has
existed noble men, faithful in love,
brave In war;" SO they may still be
f0und-fai,hful in love (when there is
plenty OF money!, -brave IN war
(when a major generalship ahead, and
pretty good, usually. when the skies
are serene and they have nothing to
cross 1t. And now | claim a cham
pinn. Will not some nj be brave
enough to stand in OppOsi uiOn to popu-
lar opinion, and truthful enough To
say to the public that ne has seen at
least one or W. real good girls in the
course Of a year? If such a II can
be found | will thank him warmly
and will think that honestly is not yeo
extinct from the a C OF men.
Now, Mr.. Editor, if this. my first
attempt at newspaper writing does
not find the waste basket you may
hear from me again.
Very truly,
Elizabeth Jane.

observes: Information comes direct
from Chicago that the meat trust is
making ready for another advance in
prices on all kinds of meat. The
southern farmer can raise his own
meat just as we'll az not, and a good
way to help break the trust is for
all wnu are in q position to do so to
produce their own beef, pork and

Captain Keller Captured

Captain Daniel S. Keller, who
passed bogus army checks on the
Washoe County Bank last May,
has been captured at Kamloops,
British Columbia, by Pinkerton
detective. 1t will be remember
ed that Keller was identified at
the bank by Charles Dougal, a
saloon keeper at Hazen, and that
the bank held $4,000 Dougal had
on deposit as part payment of
of the $500 Keller obtained on
the bogus checks. Keller stole
the checks from Quartermaster
Wiegars apartments at Fort
Sheridan, while on a visit to that
officer and forged the quarter
masters name to them. Sheriff
Ferrell is getting requisition pa
pers and will bring Keller back
to Reno for trial. Keller's crime
left Dougal almost penniless.
