"A French woman is a veritable
fairy, for even. with Indifferent ply

all other women-dressed. In wit, in
vivacity, in adaptability, in conversa-
ton, she remains unexcelled, but she
is more suited for dressmaker's than

I'm later years German women have
much improved, owing to American
ideas gradually permeating the educa-

from their physical Improvement,

from their American sisters"
Miss Beveridge has much to say for

deprived of potatoes and beer, she
thinks they would become handsome

The youthful Italian and Spanish
yomen she considers more picturesque

American women do not possess, and
that is repose. In Algiers and Tunis
she found many lovely creatures, but
it was almost impossible to secure
them as models. In Turkey, Bulgaria
and Roumania she found that the lazy
life and sedentary existence ruined the
forms of otherwise beautiful women.

In Russia there are but two types

only in the highest circles that the

WHERE Is THE $4,000?
Inspectors Found the Mail Pouch
Thief, But Not the Money.


Kansas City. July 3O-The postof-
flee inspectors have the $4,000 mail
pouch thief, but where's the $4,000?
Charles Savage, a negro, was arrested
early yesterday morning at rooming
house on East Twenty-f1rst street.
Pcstoffice inspectors in all parts of
the United States had been looking
for him for seven weeks. The inspec-
tors say they have conclusive evil
dence that Savage took the mail
pouch.
Savage was kept in a little room in
the federal building all day yesterday
and questioned. His meals were TAX
en- to him here, and no one was per-
mitted to see him. except postoffice
inspectors. Savage gladly talked on
any subject except the mail pouch.
He denies any knowledge of the rob-
berry, but admits that he was in Kan
sas City the night of the theft: that
he was arrested early the next morn
ing and later released in police court,
after paying Roland Hughes, an at
torney, 5000 for efending him.
Won't Tell the Hiding Place.
Savage was taken to the county Jail
at o'clock yesterday afternoon, aft
er he had been arraigned before John
M. Nuckols, United States commits
sioner land charged with the crime.
The bond was fixed at $4,000. OF
course there was no friend present to
sign the bond.
w. j. Vickery. chief postoffice in
spector in Kansas City, said he be-
lieved Savage had buried the $4,000,
or what was left of it, in or near Kan
sas City. The supposition is that the
negro intends to stand pat" serve a
sentence in the penitentiary. if neces-
sary, and then come from behind the
bars and enjoy his fortune. The in
spectcrs have some evidence that in
dicates this to be Savage's purpose.
In suit case captured in Denver,
supposed to have been used by Saw
age, the inspectors found a Denver
newspaper that gave an account of a
man who stole one-fourth million
dollars in gold from United States
assay office. In the headlines of the
article this question was asked:
"Who wouldn't stay in prison for
100000 year?"
Shot Craps for Travelling Expenses.
Savage told the inspectors of his
travels since he was released from
police court in Kansas City, June 8.
He named ten or twelve large cities
he has visited recently. One week
ago Savage was in Washington, he
said. The inspectors found some
souvenirs in the negros valise from
the capitol in Washington.
Where did you get the money for
all of that trayeling?" Mr.. Vickery
inquired.
Il made it shooting craps" Savage
replied.
Tipped a, White Boy $50.
The inspectors know many instanc-
es when Savage was lavish with his
money To begin with, the negro
wears silk undergarments and $50
suits. He tipped white boy $50 once
for carrying his valise. Another
time he paid S. for bath. On sew
eral occasions he bought diamonds
for his women friends. This is only
part of the evidence possessed by the
postoftice inspectors. They know
where the $4,000 was hid while
Savage was in the police holdover
and they have other Important facts
that will be used in the trial.

various states assem- led in Salt Lake
City today for the second session of
the Trans-MisSOuri Dry Farming Con
gress. The congress has for it's OBJ

and projects for the agricultural de-

semi-arid regions of the west by sys-
TENS Of scientific soil culture. Among
the states and territories represented
are Arizona, California, Colorado, Ida
no. Kansas, Montana, Nebraska. Ne
vada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah.
Washington and Wyoming. Experts
from the department of agriculture at
WASHINGTON are among the speakers
on the program for the three days of
the session.
The subjects slated for discussion
include: Consideration of the best
methods of rendering semi-arid lands
productive where ditch irrigation is
impracticable or impossible; the deter
mination of the best agricultural
methods where crop and live stock
farming is practicable; to encourage
the establishment of experimental
farms to determine the limitations of
scientific soil culture and seed selec-
ton, these farms to be operated I'M
der the direction of state Or federal
experiment stations or by private en-
terprise; TO assist prospective settlers
in every possible way to determine
what land under scientific soil culture
methods is susceptible of crop produc-
ton; and to encourage the use OF
every conservative practical method
for developing the semi-arid regions
Of the United States.
1t is declared by scientists who
have made long study of the sub
ject that the reclamation OF semi-arid
lands by irrigation will soon come to
an end, since the water SaSply avail
able for that purpose will soon be do
ing its full duty. With this fact be-
fore them, experts of the national and
state governments and others inter-
ested in soil culture have of recent
years been giving much attention to

Railroad Man Invents Elec-
trio Headlight Which Is
Said to Meet Every Objec-
ton Thus Far Found.

T. J. Anderson, passenger traffic
manager of the Galveston, Harrisburg
& San Antonio, who was in new Or
leans attending the meeting of the
southwestern excursion bureau, re-
ceived a telegram Tuesday announc-
ing the successful trial of a new cleo
trio headlight outfit, of which he is the
patentee. The light was put on the
fast Southern Pacific train running be-
tween Houston and Galveston and
proved a pronounced success. A sim
liar trial is being made of the head
light on the Union Pacific, with like
results.
MI Anderson was formerly a loco
olive engineer, and when the Texas
legislature ordered the adoption of
electric headlights for engines of
every character, it occurred to him
that something better. than the only
electric headlight ON the market was
needed. Furthermore, the production
of this headlight was a monopoly.

Mr. Anderson had friend who was
experimenting with an electric head
light for automobiles, with whom he
conferred, and to whom he furnished
the necessary caRlJaI Tor the perIec-

the production of a simple and perfect
light of superior character.
But one carbon is used in the light

the 4ower carbon, common in other
arc lights. In this manner an unvary-

is an immense advantage. In other
