The Making of a Charming
Women.

OF course the foundation of the great
est of all charms lies in that unselfish-
ness whico illumines the face as we'll as
the heart. AS politenes, itself consists
OF little generosities, SO no women who
sinks self in the giving of pleasure to
others can escape its reward and not
be herself intrinsically charming But
all women are not unselfish, and his.
tory shows us many who, though in
nately bad, yet, through mind rather
than heart, have sent their names
down to us as examples of charming
women. But they were miscalled, and
what seemed charm was only fascina-
ton in them, which is an Unborn quail
ity, though improved by brain and use.
We have all known very unselfish
women, who were mentally dense as
mud, and much of whose unselfishness
went for naught thereby, but Ameri-
can women are seldom lacking in that
mother wit that can assimilate what
they see of good in others; and, given
that self-education, there are many
little things that can go far towards
the making of charm. To aspire to be
charming woman of the world may
not be very high ambition, but it is
better than to aim at nothing, and
little thought-mental generosity-can
aid much in the making of what will
pass as charming women.-''An Old
Beau in the February Delineator.

ISSUES ORDERS
TO CHICAGO POLICE

Chicago, Dec 23.-Through its president,
Arthur Burrage Farwell, the Chicago
Law and Order league has begun issuing
what he calls General Orders to the
Chicago police. commanding them to en-
force the state law against the Sunday
saloon. .
Coupled WITH the demand is a broad in
timation In the circular that all patrol
men who fail TO arrest the operators of
Sunday barrooms may expect to face the
trial board or some other tribunal for
"palpable omission of duty with the
penalty OF a fine or removal from the
force. A slap Is taken at the mayor In
the statement in reference to him that the
closing OF the Sunday saloon is course
required by a statute and imposed on
him by law
Recent rulings by Judge Fake and
Judge Heap are made the grounds for the
issuance OF the order the special points
being that these jurists have decided that
the state law against the Sunday saloon
is applicable to Chicago and that all city
ordinances in conflict with the Illinois
statute are void.

INTERIOR CUSTOMERS
WORRY NEW YORK

New York. Dec 2-The Journal OF

what they consider distinct absence OF ap-
probation by their interior customers.

here showed every consideration. going as
far as TO accept checks on their custom

their system having once found a footing
has grown much in favor among the in
terror dealers and out-of-town checks are,
IL is understood forming a much greater
proportion OF the remittances TO New
York than has been the case for years.

chants usually specifically call for pay

distinct disposition on the part OF the
larger class of merchants TO compel

FIRE BADLY DAMAGED
WADSWORTH ST. CHURCH

Fire damaged the Wadsworth Street A.
M. f. Zion church to the extent of about
$500 last evening. the flames practically
cutting the interior OF the building. Ser
vices were held In the church during the
evening, but by 3 o'clock the congrega-
tion had departed. and the house of wor-
ship was closed by Sexton James Green
Al 9:35 o'clock Patrolman Reagan OF Sta
tion saw smoke issuing from a cellar
window and he sounded box 364. On the
arrival Of the firemen the flames were is
suing from the roof and the firemen were
confronted with a hard task to prevent
the complete destruction OF the edifce
The fire evidently started around the
furnace, but A. r. Gross. who was one of
the last to leave the church, said that
when he departed everything appeared to
bo all right.
The building itself was insured. but the
library Of 400 volumes, the organ and
piano and furnishings were not. They
will probably be total loss. The church
was built about ~ years ago and was
originally known as the Mount Zion
Methodist church. The pastor is Rev.

BELIEVES NEVADA

Washington, Dec. 23.-The appeals TO
President Roosevelt to have federal troops
remain in Goldfleld In the opinion OF White
House officials indicate a desire on the
part of those sending them to rely solely
on tho national government for protection.
The position the president has taken is
that the state of Nevada should exhaust
every means within its power 90 control
the situation and that federal interference
should be supplemental only TO the efforts
being made by the state.
Nothing in the appeals so far received
indicate that any steps whatever are be-
ing taken by the state. Until this Is shown

FEUD AT PARK
AIRED IN COURT

James III. Ward %, I'm district court
this morning. pleaded nolo contendere to
having threatened to kill Oscar Nelson. II
was told to the court by Attorney A. j..
Gushing that the two were employees at
Roger Williams park. and that five years
ago sort OF feud sprang up between
them, and that " was his opinion that
Ward was as much sinned against as
SHINING and that he thought the threat
TO kill was nothing more than an exag-
gerated statement made during "A renew
al of the feud last Thursday.
lie said that Ward had been discharged
from the park employ, as in some ways
he was the aggressor, and that Supt.
Fits had taken that course in order to
keep up discipline. He asked that Ward
be placed on probation. as he thought
that he needed some restraint, and such
course would be better than putting him
under bonds TO keep the peace. Proba-
ton was granted. with the understand
ing that Ward not only keep the peace,
but take the pledge.

AWAITED WITH INTEREST
Everybody VIII Enjoy the Feats of
Daring of the Riders and Trapexe
Performers.

The Carl Hagenbeck & Wallace cir
Gus with its street parade and two
performances, which viii arrive Aug.
"a. is awaited with interest by the
young folks and the grown folks as
we'll. Every minute OF each per-
Torrance will be crowded with pic
turesque and exciting events and not
minute Will lag from the sound OF the
opening blast of the ringmaster's
trumpet to the final bow or the per-
formers.
A large number of the difficult acts
seen with the modern circus are in
danger OF not being appreciated, be
cause of the ease with which they are
performed. One of the chief difficulties
that confronts a manager of big cir
Gus like the Carl Hagenbeck x Great
Wallace, combined shows. is the scar
city of acrobatic equestriennes.
The way to the pinnacle Of fame in
circus ring is difficult and discour-
aging. OF the girls who essay
the feats of clever rider. not one in
thousand succeed and only one in a
hundred of those who succeed ever at
tain prominence. Prominent in the
coterie of equestrienne celebrities with
the Hagenback & Wallace circus is
Mile emmett. In point of poise, grace,
dash and daring agility. her riding
simply defies all description. Nothing
she does looks difficult nor appears, in
deed to require effort She is secure
and as much at home in her unstable
position on the heaving, bounding back
| of a galloping horse. as a society belle
on a ball room floor. The cleverness
| OF Miss emmett deceives the public and
makes 1t look easy. Any spectator who
| attempts to initiate the work OF this
| celebrity, will soon have such a de-
| fusion dispelled from their mind. The
same thing may be sand OF all the hun
dreds of performers with the Carl
| Hagenbeck & Great Wallace circus.
Every act is so cleverly, carefully, and
quickly executed. that the danger OF
