A Woman's Apathy.

II is unquestionably true that one
Of the greatest obstacles in the wom-
ans path of industrial progress has
been her own apathy. She is re-
preached by thesm in her trade for
DER lack of interest In trade unionism;
vhe is reproached by the philanthro'
pist for her lack of ambition - her
yeeming willingness to remain un-
skilled and underpaid. But in this
lew movement for the franchise, says
edith Abbott, in Atlantic. we have the
women who are already in the ranks
Of the skilled workers, and who have
long since proved their capacity for
organization taking another great step
forward. They have at last learned
that their industrial regeneration can
come only through their own efforts
and the Importance of this new spirit
Of independence. this enlarging OF
the working woman's sphere of activ-
ity to demand q voice in the laws
that regulate her toll" would be Diff
ficult to overestimate.

LEAPS FROM TRAIN
SHERCLIFFE, FAMOUS DIAMOND
ROBEER AND MURDERER.
ON WAY TO PENITENTIARy
Those Who Know His Character
and Record Are Not Sur
prised.

Leadville, Col, Sept. Fisherman
Morris, alias Frank -Shercliffe. re-
Gently convicted of the murder OF
John Walsh, Leadville saloonkeeper,
fifteen years ago, escaped from the
sheriff early yesterday morning while
being taken to the peniteniary to
serve a ffteen-year sentence. Morris
while handcuffed, jumped from car
window as the train was approach
ing Canyon City, and made good his
escape. Morris was brought here for
trial from Michigan. Witnesses came
from Omaha and Butte, Mont, to
testify as to certain admissions of
guilt he had made. Morris has a re-
markable criminal record. one of his
most daring acts being the robbery
of diamond dealer, for which crime
he served sentence in Iowa. Enter.
ing Canyon City, Morris, who had been
sitting in front of Sheriff Bonner sud
dely simulated pain. 81 must go to
the toilet room,' he said and started
on a run to the end of the car.
Bonner started after Morris, but the
latter entered the toilet room first
and slammed the door, which the
sheriff prevented from closing by in
sorting his foot next to the jamb.
Morris threw his weight against the
door and Bonner was forced to with
draw his foot or have it crushed.
Then Morris, locking the door against
the sheriff, opened the window
through which he leaped. Blood
hounds were sent from the peniten-
tiary but no trace of Morris has been
found.

Already air navigators are begin
ming to tell us what to do. One OF the
flrst things they ask is that the name
OF the town should be painted in large
letters on the tops Of tall buildings, SO
that he who flies may read. Then the
navigator can know whether he Is
over Michigan or Mississippi, over
wet or dry town, or nearly over his
voyage. This request appears to pre-
suppose that flying will be confined to
the United States. However, II the
invention is successful people will fly
IN all directions. Therefore the names
OF the towns wos1d have to be printed
In every language represented in the
international Flyers union. We see
now where the need OF Esperanto
comes in. The aviators can put In their

they fit from land to land, for they

JACQUES is NAMED.
Democratic Candidate for Judge of
State Supreme Court.


Des Moines, Sept. 25.-No opposi-
ton to w. H. Jaques of Ottumwa for
supreme judge developed among the
democrats, who come in for their
state judicial convention yesterday,
and the convention met last night at
the Auditorium for the purpose of
nominating him. Senator E. G. Moon
OF Wapello county placed his name
before the convention, w. H. Beck of
Sioux City and II. G. Evans of Des
Moines seconded it and Mr.. 'Jaques
was nominated by reclamation to run
against w. D. Evans recently chosen
by the republicans. 1t was decided
that as the convention had no bust
ness before it except the nomination
of Judge, and the state committee
already had indicated that selection,
it would be good plan to have it in
the evening and make a state rally
of 1t. This was attempted and the con.
yention last night nominated Jaques
and then heard John A. Atwood of
Kansas, in charge Of the national
democratic speakers.

Populous China,

The population of the Chinese EN-.
pire is largely matter of estimate.
There has never been such census Of
the empire as that which is
taken every decade in this country.
But the estimate of the Almanach de
Gotha for 1900 may be taken as fairly
reliable. According to that estimate,
the population of the empire is, in
round numbers, about 400,000,000. It
is probably safe to say that if the
human beings on earth were stood up
in line every fourth one would be q
Chinaman. &c.

q statute which forbids willful OF

IN rendering sentence declared that

mer professional partner, and Miss
Hannah Dineen, the maid at the Rus

found on the porch following the muir
der. Dr.. Lord was quite sure in his
identification of Davis as the man he
met while he was answering the call
to the Rustin home. Mrs. Rice was
in the court room, but was not called.
