WORSE THAN OLD SHOES.


Kansas City Journal-A rural dope
singer for the Kingfisher Times
makes the marriage Of bachelor
friend the excuse for perpetrating this
alleged poem:
Not laugh was heard nor a joyous
note.
AS our friend to his bride was hur-
ried;
Not wit discharged his farewell joke
AS the bachelor went to be married.
They married him quickly to save
his fright,
Our heads to one side turning
And we sighed as they stood by the
dawn's dim light,
To think of him more discerning,
To think that bachelor free and
bright,
And shy of the sex as we found him,
Should there at the altar at dawn OF
day
Be caught in the snare that bound
him.
Few and short were the words that
were said,
No cake nor wine partaking.
He quickly left from the scene OF
dread
And his knees were awfully shaking.

to be supported or left to starve rests
entirely with the husband and father.
The bill passed by the Iowa senate
is patterned after those in vogue in
nearly all the states, as Nevada, Ore
gon. Texas and Tennessee are the only
four Joined with Iowa in the list of
those without means of prosecuting
brutal husbands. 1t provides that a
man may be arrested upon information
charging him with deserving or failing
to provide for his family and that it
then rests with the prisoner to prove
his innocence. If found guilty the
court is empowered to impose Sc
we're Jail sentence, unless the offender
gives bond for sufficient sum con-
ditioned upon the payment of week
ly amount deemed by the court neces-
sary as q provision for the family. If
this bond is forfeited 1t is within the
courts discretion to pay the entire
sum to the family.
The law has proved success in ev-
cry state in which it has been operat-
ed, and Iowa should see that the bill
now before the legislature passes be-
fore any of the so-called reform meas
ures are taken up. Give justice to
the mother and her babies even if adj
ditions have to be built to the jails to
accommodate brutal husbands.

HIS ONLY CONSOLATION.

Harper's Weekly. Recently mem.
Der of congress from Missouri came
racing Down the iron steps which led
to the train shed of one of the depots
in Washington, just as the train was
pulling out.
The member was stout and perspir-
ing and his arms were filled with bun
dies, for nc was a commuter. Every
body got out of his way as he chased
the rear car down the long platform
some shouting advice and more or less
pleasant comment after him Some
sportively inclined persons offered bets
in loud voice on his chances of catch
ing the train, while others laughed at
his grim determination.
The member caught the train, being
hoisted upon the platform by train
man, without the loss Of a bundle He
shook his fist at the cheering crowd
behind him and went inside the car
with the blissful sense of having "won
out"
1t was only when the conductor came
around that he learned that he was on
Chicago express, instead of a local
accommodation. However, he accepted
the situation gracefully. observing:
There's one comfort Those idiots
in the station will never know. They
think ! caught the right train"

It's funny, isn't it? How many are
there of us that cannot look back on a
childhood in which the tin soldier and
the toy cannon played prominent
parts. And how many of us were
moved to engage in this "ghastly bust
ness of death" through playing with
our innocent toys?
But Mrs Mead talks in all serious
ness. why should you permit the
boy who you hope will become fine
and gentle man to pretend that he is
killing people and to cut whole pla,
toons of infantry at one volley?" she
demands. you would hardly allow a
child OF yours to play at hanging a
man" she insists, yet you give him
toy soldiers without thought of the
consequences.
Il do not disapprove of drums or
bugles or other military parapherna

pretended battles of tin soldiers
throws the glamous of romance about

SUFFRAGE in ENGLAND.

The efforts of the women of Eng
land to secure the suffrage enjoyed
by their sisters of Colorado sustained
severe check yesterday when the
mounted police after riding into a
crowd of the fai. sex collected at the
doors of the house of commons and
injuring several, arrested twenty Of
the leaders of the movement.
1t was an exhibition of brutal police
power that smacks more Of Russia
than of England, and instead of serv-
ing the presumed purpose of stamp
ing out the suffrage movement it will
but fan the flames if the women Of
the British isles have the spirit CT
their American sisters.
Let the American police mounted, or
unmounted, ride rough shod into a
ga herring of Amrican femininity. no
matter what the movement. and what
would be the result? Would the wom-
en- pick themselves from the mire
when tramped upon and meekly sub.
nit to arrest? Well, not in your I'm.
Gle Samuel's domain.
There is not the slightest reason TO
believe that the free suffrage system
shall ever become the general practice
even in this country, where it is the
prevailing sentiment that nothing is
too good for the sex if it wants it
This is true for the very simple rea-
son that the great majority of women
do not want free suffrage. The re,
suit in Colorado where the women
have almost equal representation IN
the central committee and fully equal
rights at the polls, has not been such
as to commend the suffrage system
But a small percentage or the women
there avail themselves of the right OF
the ballot and those that do have not
been successful in purifying the bal
lots in a state where an honest cleo.
ton is looked upon as a rarity.
/ But all the same the women of Eng
land deserved better treatment than
they were accorded by the police and
just because they were given such
treatment let's hope that they win

THE COST OF LIVING.

Oskalocsa Herald.-There has been
much said of late concerning the great
increase in the cost of living over the
increase in wages. Some people make
this the basis for an attack on the
protective tariff They insist that the
higher cost of the necessities of life
are caused by the tariff duties.
But those who are advocates of the
protective tariff argue against any
such condition. They contend that it
is the protective tariff which has CIV
en- the country the great prosperity
that it now enjoys. This prosperity
has enabled everyone to draw good
wages, where during periods Of hard
times only a portion of the people in
the country were receiving anything
like adequate financial income.
The whole country is now living
higher than it ever has in it's history.
observes the Burlington Hawkeye.
Everybody, both capitalist and laborer,
is indulging In greater Injuries than
ever. The wage Garner is eating more
meat, and wearing better clothing than
he did twelve years ago. He f. taking
more pleasure out Of life. going on
more vacations and attending the the
alter. going on railroad journeys and
living nearer to the line of individual
comfort than before. All of this costs
money, and consequently his expenses
are very much greater.
Ask man to name the particular
line of necessities of life that cause
the increase in living and there will
be hesitation, and vague declaration
that ''all Of them have advanced in
price" AS a matter of fact, however,
lit will be found that the advance in
the cost Of living lies more in the high.
err living INDUCED in by the wage earn
ers than in the greater cost of the
commodities. Were people willing to-
day to limit themselves to the cloth.
ing and food which they could afford
during the hard times they would find
that the cost of living would be very
little If any higher now than then and
that their savings would mount UP
more rapidly.
But the rule of life is easy comes
easy goes" and it is only with the ut
most frugality of spirit and careful
business management that the wage
Garner today is able to keep from al
lowing his good fortune to run away
with him.
With the present indulgence in ex
ira living, because of the financial abil
| ity to do so, increasing the cost of liv
ing, it is not fair to lay the blame tc
the policy that has created the larger
income. 1t is well in this connection
to consider the conditions that con
front the wage Garner in other coun
tries. The Kansas City Star has OBJ
tanned from a reliable source of list
! of the wages of twelve classes of la
borers, mechanics and artisans in Ger
many, England and the United States
| The comparison shows that the wage
here is more than double in the other
countries named. while prices In Ger
many are as follows Beefsteak, &c
cents a pound; porksteak, 20 cents;
bacon, 81 cents; ham, 20 cents; butter
20 cents; coffee, 28@4S cents; eggs
I20 cents dozen, potatoes, "a cents a
bushel; flour SO per barrel. Little
comment In this case appears to be
necessary.

THE uNcHANGINe CLIMATE.

Chicago Trubune-An interesting
interview with Prof Willis l.. Moore
upon the climate of the United States
indicates his opinion that those who
express the belief that the climate is
changing base their statements on un-
trustworthy foundations. Ordinarily
memory is appealed to and memory on
weather is considered by him an I'M
satisfactory guide.
The man who recalls heavy fall of
snow during his boyhood in the coun-
try is apt to use the abnormal instance
as an illustration of the normal. The
deep impression made upon him when
he was boy by one big storm. after
which he made his way along the road
in little travelled path, Is compared
with the later impression Of the snow
fall in city where thousands walk
along the street and where many are
at work Nth plows and shovels to
keep the passage open The drifted
snow Of the country road and the
comparatively clean sidewalks of his
city home are so different that gener-
alizations about the climate are cas-.
lily made.
Opposed to uncertain memory Is the
official record Of the weather bureau,
which now covers a sufficient number
of years to make, deductions possible
and fairly trustworthy This record
shows substantial uniformity of con-
dition. The average fall Of snow and
the average state of the mercury de.
duced from the records are far more
reliable than the chance recollection
of the story teller whose mind dwells
upon the abnormal and takes no note
of the average. AS one grows older.
Mr.. Moore says, one begins to exag-
gerate SO that I'VE had snow four feet
deep all winter is quite likely to be
the report of a year when there was
one storm where the snow was that
deep in spots.
A financial hearing on the subject is
indicated in connection with the rain.
fall. The records Of the weather bu-
reau show that the average rainfall
during the first ten years of period
of thirty or forty years is precisely the
same as the average during the last
ten years 1t is probable, therefore,
that the six years of abundant rainfall
which the country has been enjoying
will be followed by season of drought
TO equaiize things. The bureau has
received correspondence from those

ABOUT BOOMERS.

An argument in favor of divided
skirts, sometimes vulgarly referred 10
as boomers, is given in the recent
Chicago fire whcn 35 romping girls
most all the other accoNtrements that
go to make the fair sex presentable
for the street, ran down six flights II
stairs, dense with smoke and reached
the street in safety. Could this have
happened if the girls were attired in
their mousseline de sole or point
oesprit? Perhaps, but the boomers
a.e the best yet when the fire bell
rings and you're on the sixth floor.
