I make this statement because I do
not want the public deceived. l do
not want poor people paying their last
dollar, perhaps mortgaging their little
property, to get treatment which they

Still further in evidence of woman's
abilities as a wage Garner one may
consider the above table from the ST.
900 mark to that approaching $1,000 a
year. Looking only at the abstract
figures, one might take it for granted
that the number of women in these
classifications is markedly smaller
than the number of the men. But to
determine womans real position and
capabilities it is necessary to consid-
er her place in percentages. The num-
Der of the men in this table is taken
from a total of 172,053; the number
Of women from a total Of only 1891.
On basis of these figures the wom-
en- earning above $1,000 and almost
to $1,000 a year are proportionately
greater in numbers than are the men.
In these four gradations, as shown
in the salary tables, these percent
ages show as follows:

Washington Statue for Capitol.

One of the subjects to be brought
before congress early in the next ses-
sion will be proposition to provide
a suitable statue of Washington for
the east front of the capitol, in view
of the removal of the Greenough
statue, which represents the Father
of His Country in the scant attire
Of a Roman statesman, from the plaza
to the Smithsonian institution.
Representative Mccall, chairman of
the house committee on the library,
has introduced a bill providing for a
replica of the ]. Q. A. Ward statue
of Washington, which stands in front
of the custom house in New York.
Mr.. Mccall proposes to place this
replica on the staircase on the east
front of the capitol, so that presidents,
in delivering their inaugural address
es, will stand at the feet of the first
president.
This proposition Is objected to by
many senators, who prefer having a
new work and not merely replica
The idea of placing a heroic statue
in bronze in a conspicuous place on
the plaza, representing Washington
in the act of delivering his inaugural
address, is finding many supporters in
congress, and they will urge an ap-
preparation for that purpose before
adjournment.

SPEAKER sHIFTER HIS oUID.
This was Done So That No Partially
Could Be Shown.

Doctor Hildreth, in his Memoirs of
the Early Settlers of Ohio" devotes
chapter to Abraham Whipple of
Rhode Island. He was born in 1888,
and was one of the first to take hand
in the revolutionary war. In 1885 he
was elected representative to the
legislature from the town of Cranston.
The advocates of the paper-money
system were then in power, and had
chosen Othniel Gorton, a clumsy old
man, for speaker.
Gorton was in the habit of keeping
large guild of tobacco in one side Of
his mouth, which pressed out one Of
his cheeks. Most of the debates were
on the opposite side of the hall from
that on which Commodore Whipple
sat, and the speakers face was COM
monty turned that way.
Once in the course of the debate
Whipple had cogitated speech, which
he waited for an opportunity to de-
liver. At last, out of patience, he rose
and called, "Mr. Speakeri" The speak
er, whose face was turned the other
way. did not hear him. He raised his
voice to its utmost, "Mr. Speaker"
Gorton started, and turning to the
commodore, said. 81 hear you" There
upon Whipple began:
Il wish, Mr. Speaker, you would
shift your quid of tobacco from your
starboard to your larboard jaw, that it
might give your head cant this way,
so that you could sometimes hear
something from this side of the
house"
Then he went on with his speech.

SAVE THE PIGS TO BUY WIVES
One Reason Why cannibaIism Flour
ishes in the New Hebrides.

The New Hebrides are still popu-
lated by hordes of man-killing and
man-eating savages, precisely as they
were in the days of Cook.
Owing to international jealousy, mis-
sionary enterprise has been able to
accomplish little or nothing on the ma
jority of the islands. Indeed, the in
teriors of most of them remain
to this day unexplored and the tribes
men there have never seen white
face.
Nevertheless they all own firearms,
which they have obtained from the
coast jewellers, and labor-recruiting
vessels. With these they go gun
ming for one another in order to re-
plenish their larders, for they are can
nibals to a man.
Not cannibals occasionally, and
through stress of circumstance, as
are some of the Central African ne.
groes. The New Hebridean native
eats human flesh habitually because
he likes it, and because it costs moth
ing and is easily procurable.
This is shown by the fact that al
though pigs abound on most of the
islands, they are rarely killed for
food. Such proceeding would be re,
garded as sinful extravaganza. For
pigs constitute the currency of the
country, and can be exchanged for to,
bacco and beads; or for wives, the
greatest of all luxuries.
For 20 rigs one can buy really
good-looking girl-wife, who will de'
light her lord and master in her youth
and slave for him from daylight to
dark in the yam plantations when she
gets past her prime.

THE TURK IN WASHINGTON.
Little Known Of the Genuine Article
in National Capital.

We know so little about the real
Turk in this country that it is diff
ftcult to understand from any intimate
enlightenment events that occur be-
meath our very noses. Most of the
so-ealled Turks that come here are
only Turkish subjects, Greeks, Ar
menians, Syrians, etc., and not Turks
at all. Tourists who take in Constan-
tinople and chatter in the bazars with
deceitful tradesmen come home to tell
dreadful stories of the Turk and to
denounce his tricks as vain. The truth
is that they have not come in contact
with the real Turks at all.
The sultan has very seldom sent
a real Turk to Washington as his en-
voy. One reason is that Turks do not
care to leave home for domestic and
other reasons, and another is that
he has wished to reward the son or
the dependent of some favorite.
twenty-five years ago the Ottoman
minister at the capital was Mavroyen1
Bey, a Greek and the son of the sui
tan's favorite physician. After some
years the latter fell into disfavor and
Mavroyeni was recalled. He had
found much favor with the fair sex,
but had made few friends among his
own sex, certainly not many who were
important and could be of use to him
officially He was succeeded by a
real Turk Ali Ferrough Bey, a hand
some, sympathetic, impulsive young
fellow, who promptly ingratiated him
self with every one of sporty tenden-
cies and was informed with certain
wisdom and an unquestionable energy.
Ali Ferrough was in fair way of get
ting his country much liked and very
seriously considered when, two or
three years later, he was recalled for
promotion, and in his place came a
solemn, silent, unhappy looking gen.
tleman who said nothing to anybody
and had a beak like bird Of prey.
He didn't stay long. Latterly we have
had Mehmed Ali Bey, a son Of Izzet
Pasha, the sultan's deposed favorite,
not Turk, but Syrian. He is
eliminated and now comes Mundji
Bey, apparently a Turk, and, like Ali
Ferrough of pleasant memory, talka-
tive, emotional and essentially light
hearted. At least Washington accepts
him as such because of the resem-
blance He bids fair to make con-
genial and helpful acquaintances, and
if these indications hold out he may
come to be useful.
The fact remains that we know
very little of the real Turk. The peas
ant is always an agriculturist when he
is not soldier. The gentleman is
refined, elegant, exclusive and lux
urious-too much so, perhaps, for the
good of his country. Americans who
stay at home, and of course form COM
placent opinions, gather their ideas of
the Turkish people from the Greeks,
Armenians, ETC., who come here to
represent the diplomacy and the com
merce of the empire. What Ameri-
cans do not know about the Turk would
fill a library.

Writing of the famous Dean Kaye
of Topeka, in Suburban Life, Paul A.
Lovewell, says: ..-.....
Dean Kaye has had interesting ex-
periences during his soujourns in the
wilderness. Once an Indian woman
came to his cabin.
"'You marry?' she asked.
YES said the dean, I can marry
folks. Have you got MANI
Again the woman grunted, and de-
parted. About shutdown she returned,
dragging with her an apparently
abashed and reluctant brave.
"'Got him. she remarked, laconical-
ly, producing her marriage license.
The man knew no English, but the
woman prompted him when it became
necessary for him to give his assent
to the deans questions. When it was
over the squaw paid the minister his
fee and led her husband away in tri-
umph."

EMINENT PAYROLL.
Large Percentage Engaged in Sub
Clerical Work-Average Salary
of Those In District Is
1887 Per Year.

In the last few years, outside of the
departments at Washington, women
have been increasing in numbers in
the government service. Last year, in
all the civil service positions of the
national government, not including the
consular and diplomatic service, there
were 2S6,902 employees Ten per cent.
of the total were employed in the Dis
trict Of Columbia.
Recently the department of COM
merce and labor has been looking into
detailed statistics concerning the full
civil service employees of the country.
It was found impossible to include for
comparison those employees in the sew
eral departmental branches of the
government presided over by cabinet
heads under appointment by the presi-
dent; also the employees under the
lsthmian canal commission were ex-
cluded, the whole number of exclu-
sions footing 101, 028 of the army I'M
der civil service. This has left total
Of 1854 employees of the govern
ment subject to the comparisons of
the investigators.
Thus for the purposes of compari-
son these 1854 employees are divid-
ed according to sex into 1908 men
and 1891 women. In Washington 1t
was found that the proportion of wom-
en- employees was 8 to 10, while else
where in the country there was one
woman to 25 men in civil service posi-
tons. Both women and men in the
service at Washington were older than
were the employees elsewhere, while
in the district the average salary was
larger. In Washington the average
salary for the man was Sits and for
the woman it was $837; outside Of the
district the average was $685. for the
man and $766 for the woman.
In the matter of comparative salary
for the sexes the bureau says: That
the percentage of women paid at the
rate of less than S720 year is very
high as compared with that for men
does not indicate that women receive
less than the men for the same class
of work, but reflects the fact already
noted that a far larger percentage Of
the women than of the men are en-
gagged in sub-clerical work or in man.
