new GUINEA cOURTSHlP.

Al the Preposals Of Marriage Ars
Made BY Women.
Away or In the strange island OF
New Guinea it is leap year all the
time in one important sense, for out
there all the proposals Of marriage
are made by the women. II Is consid-
cred beneath the dignity Of the male
Inhabitants OF New Guinea to even
notice a woman. and consequently the
women perforce must notice the men
and must start any idea Of weddings.
etc. ...
So when the island belle Of New
Guinea becomes in love she promptly
sends a piece Of string to the sister
Of the lucky man. II he has no sister
she sends 1t to his mother or to some
female relative-this because the man
and his male relatives are assumed
to be above taking any steps toward
acquiring Z wife.
Then the sister says to the man in.
volved: Brother, I have news. So
and-so is in love with you" If in.
clined to matrimony tho man makes
an engagement to meet the enamored
lady. When they meet 1t is alone, and
they either decide to wed or drop the
entire proposition at once. There is
no counting, for the man 10 not al
lowed, theoretically at least to waste
any time ON a woman-not even
enough time to make love to the lady
or to allow her to make love to him.
The betrothal IL announced, and the
engaged man in New Guinea IL brand
ed on the back with charcoal, but the
womaHs mark Of engagement to wed
is actually cut into her skin and is
never allowed to completely vanish.
If either one decides to break the en-.
gagement nothing can be done by the
offended party.
II the girl decides that, after all. she
sent the little piece Of string by mis-
take the man Is apt. however, to catch
her some time alone and beat her. If
the man jilts the woman her relatives
often hunt him up and administer q
sound drubbing. Blood, however. is
seldom shed. as the breaking Of these
women made engagements Is not deem
ed q very serious matter.
Though the women propose the wed
dings in New Guinea. the condition OF
the wife is miserable and unjust in
the extreme. The girl Is merely the
property and slave Of the husband. He
can beat her unrebuked and even kill
her with impunity If she incurs his
enmity.-Atlanta Constitution.

FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE.
Her Summary Method Of Swapping
Official Red Tape.

Her Summary Method Of Swapping
Official Red Tape.
When Florence Nightingale came, in
stantly q new intelligence, instinct
with pity, adame with energy. fertile
with womanly invention. swept through
the Scutari hospital. Clumsy male de-
vices were dismissed, almost with
gesture, into space. Dirt became q
crime, fresh air and clean linen. sweet
food and soft hands a piety. A great
kitchen was organized which provided
well cooked food for a thousand men.
Washing was a lost art In the hospital,
but this band Of women created, as
with breath, a great laundry, and
strange cleanliness crept along the
walls and the beds Of the hospital. In
their warfare with disease and pain
these women showed a resolution AZ
high as the men Of their race showed
against the gray coated battalions of
Inkerman or in the frozen trenches be-
fore Sebastopol. Middle headed male
routine was swept ruthlessly aside.
If the commissariat failed to supply
requisites, Florence Nightingale. who
had great funds at her disposal. in
stantly provided them herself, and the
heavy footed officials found the swift
feet Of these women outrunning them
in every path Of help and pity. Only
one dash Of anger 10 reported to have
broken the serene calm which served
as mask for the steel-like and reso-
lutte viii Of Florence Nightingale.
Some stores had arrived from Eng
land: sick men were languishing for
them. But routine required that they
should be inspected by board before
being issued. and the board, moving
with heavy footed siowness. had not
completed its work when night fell.
The stores were. therefore, with on
cial phlegm. locked up and their use
denied to the sick. Between the needs
Of hundreds Of sick men and the COM
forts they required was the locked
door, the symbol Of red tape. Florence
Nightingale called q couple Of order
lies. walked to the door and quietly
ordered them to burst Il open and tho
stores to be distributed Coenhin Mag
axine.

NEWS FROM
The MINES.
Lead

Lancaster NJ. No'''''' 0@i~oS
Total sale. .......... 2II'43o .'i..
Value; zinc, Sass.
AS outlined in our mining news
column last week, the price OF
zinc ore moved up to the S45 base
price, the top ore bringing S47.sO
With the price of Spelter showing
a strong upward tendency, and
a good firm demand for the fin-
ished product by the consuming
trade, it looks reasonable that
zinc ore should maintain its pres
ent base price, and no doubt will
advance still further, if the de-
mand continues to persist in TAX
ing its usual amount of spelter.
The steel industry, which is a
most potent factory in the con-
sumption of zinc, in its galvaniz-
ing and sheet departments, is re-
ported to be improving steadily
iu its output each week. At the
present rate of increase it will be
but a short time until all the
steel mills of the country will be
running at their full capacity,
which means that this one indus
try will be again calling on zinc
producers for a large quantity OF
spelter to fill its demands for gal
vanized products. The outlook,
therefore, for good demands and
higher prices for zinc ores, is
most flattering, and should en-
courage the investment of money
in opening up and developing
new mines for the purpose Of
meeting the increased demand,
which is sure to follow the re-
vival of business throughout the
entire country.
The best posted business mer
in this country all unanimous
in predicting the greatest period
of activity in construction, build
ing and operation, that this coun'
try has ever experienced is imme'
diately before us, and that with
in a short time this period will
be upon US.

BOOSTER DAY A SUCCESS.
An Enormous Crowd in Town
and Everything Passed OFF
Nicely.

Baxter Springs third Booster
Day was a grand success in every
way. The weather looked squal-
ly and it was feared rain would
keep the crowd away from town.
In fact it sprinkled at intervals
during the day, but the people
kept coming, and by ? o'clock
Military street, and also the
cross streets in the business sec
ton, were we'll filled with peo-
pie. The merchants were all
doing a good business, and every
restaurant and lunch counter in
the town was eaten out.
People came from long dis
tances, too. Not only was every
body in from the immediate sur
rounding country, but people
came from near Seneca, Miami,
Columbus, Galena and Chetopa.
The girls in the registration
booths were kept busy, and the
total registration was 1880 when
the booths closed at 3 o'clock.
Then came the drawing, and
the crowd was likened by more
than one observer to the crowd
around the ticket wagon of big
circus. Not much time was re-
quired to conduct the drawing,
and when it was over the lucky
ones scattered after the prizes.
More than forty ticket holders
were made happy.
