A pretty school teacher in Hammond,
Ind, has lost her position because the
superintendent does not believe that
school teacher should attend dances
and other entertainments Of the sort.
IT has always been sort or unwritten
law among school teachers that such
entertainments should only be attend

if the young woman in question con-
formed to that law she is excusable,
otherwise, the st. Louis Globe-Demo-

occupation, IL there is such, where she

Canal CompIications.

The letting of the contracts for the
Panama canal has been again post
poned until Jan. II, for it has been
discovered that no contractors would
bid under the conditions imposed. 1t
has also been figured out that of the
S145,000,O00 appropriated by Congress
for the work only S71,000.000 remains
unexpended, and as the cost win be
three or four times that amount. it will
require another appropriation by Con
gress before the contracts can be let.
These are only few of the principal
complications that our strenuous ad.
ministration has created.

The empire gown may have to It's
credit the return to popularity Of the
long train skirt. An empire dress must
be very long to be at all graceful and
one unusually long skirt in a room
will make all the shorter ones look
awkward. Trains, therefore, are this
year extremely long, no matter what
the style of the dress or to Just what
period ii may belong. The empire has
been brought down to fine point this
season, and 30 cleverly is the material
of the dress and lining managed that
the material apparently hangs quite
loose and yet shows to excellent adj
vantage all the good lines of the figure.

Persons familiar with real Indian up
risings have been amused at The
amount of attention attracted to the
recent attempted migration of three
hundred Utes from their reservation
in Utah to more fertile land in Wyo-
ming. The Indians had no warlike
purpose. They were simply seeking
place of residence where it will be
possible to get food. 1t is fifteen years
since there has been anything which
can properly be called an uprising, and
that eliminated in the fight at Wound
ed Knee, S. D., in 1890. The campaign
of General Miles for the capture of
Geronimo in 1886 was really the last
serious conflict between the whites and
the red men. To go farther back.
troops were called out at the time of
the massacre of the Meeker family by
the White River Utes in 1879, and the
Sioux and Cheyennes were so trouble
some in 1876 that they had to be at
tackled in the campaign which resulted
in the Custer massacre. These were
grave disturbances; but so many of
the Indians now speak English, wear
civilized clothing and cultivate the
land, that the red man who has any
disposition to take to the war-path has
practically disappeared.
