Sixty Political Women in Prison.

New York.-Mmme Maria De Ruiz
Sandoval of Mexico. whose husband.
General Francisco Sandoval, is now
with the army of Guatemala, an
nounces that she has received letter
from her sister. Isobel De Ruiz. a resi-
dent of the City of Mexico, stating that
she. with about sixty other Mexican
women of high degree had all been i'm
prisoned there on the charge of at
tempting to incite a revolution.
The sister says the women are ali
confined in small, dirty cells in Belen
prison and that they are treated as
common felons. The prisoners are not
allowed to see anyone and a trial has
SO far been denied them. Appeals to
President Diaz, the writer says. have
been of no avaN and she hopes that
some of the people in the United
States will call attention to the unjust
treatment meted out to them.
Sonora De Ruiz writes further that
the story of the arrests has been kent
from the newspapers of Mexico and
that through a friend she made in
prison she was able to smuggle out the
letter TO neT s.=ter.

Sanitation Of smaIl rowns.

We hear much of the reduction in
the death rate OF large cities in recent
years, but very little about the i'm
provement of the health of small
towns. 1t is well known. says the In
dependent, that all the infectious dis.
eases claim many less victims in city
life than they did 25 years ago, and
the reason for it is not far to seek.
Cities established departments of
health. gave to them ample powers,
and then insisted on their being of.
fective IL their appropriations were to
be continued. The consequence has
been that not only has much suffer
ing been spared, but thousands-nay.
even hundreds of thousands-of peo-
pie are now alive who, in the words of
one prominent sanitarian. have no
business being alive-they would have
been dead If the death rate that pre-
vailed 20 years ago still obtained.
Had they died their death would have
been considered as from the hand of
God We know that their living is
the result of the taking OF some very
simple measures for the prevention OF
disease.

With salaries beginning in the lowest

Marriage ceremonies in India are
full of pretty incidents. The chief in
oident OF the better class Hindoo mar
riage ceremony is called the Bhaunri.
1t is the sevenfold circuit OF tree or
post, or seven steps taken in unison.
The seven steps are the seven grades
of life. The husband. often boy of
IA, walks round and round solemnly
with the end of his coat tied to the
end of the cloth which his girl wife
wears on her head, symbolical of
their union. All the time they do this
they must not look at each other, but
upward. The Hindoo is bound to in.

works play an important part in the

to two or three months of the year.

The complaints about the poor pay
of the clergy are getting loud. and
nobody disputes their validity. 1t is
a solemn fact that the ministry stands
almost alone among all the profess

creased expenses of modern living.
The clergymen have a perfect right to
be indignant about 1t.

Fort Worth, Texas, Nov. %
When Harry Christianson started
from Chicago to Texas a few months
ago he decided he had better bring
a gun along with him. He visited a

little saucy-looking derringcr with
a barrel about an inch long, paving
$3.50 for it.
Wednesday morning he was
brought before County Judge Ter
rell on a charge of carrying a pls
toll Charles Rowland, assistan
county attorney, brought the of
Tending weapon into the cour
! room and showed it to Judge
Terrell.
II guess people in Chicago think
that is real gun said Judge Ter
rell to the prisoner

That's bad. It is just as much
of an offense to carry a little
thing like that as to carry a sure
enough gun"
The prisoner said he had never
been in the habit of carrying
gun, but he bought this one just
before leaving for Texas thinking
to protect himself.
He was fined 500. the minimum
fine in such cases The little der
ringer was turned over to the

keeping until the prisoner is releas-
