She also has to report at the theater
earlier and stay later in case the
women she understudies fail to appear
or are III.
After months of this moving from
place to place on one-night stands, the
average daintily-brought-up woman is
apt to wonder why she ever left her
comfortable, refined home to be a So
cial outcast, condemned to spend her
life among unrefned people, coarse
surroundings and damp and unwhole-
some old theaters and hotels, moving
from place to place like Bohemian
who Belongs nowhere. It takes years
of this sort of thing to lead up to a
Broadway success, and often, too, the
years and the struggling are all spent
in vain, for the field is frightfully
overcrowded.

Pulling Points About
Evolution of Clothes

bv safety pins or fbulae over each
shoulder. and as much of it was pulled
Up through the girdle, to fall over it
in graceful folds, as the wearer pleas
ed. The dress depended for its effect
and, indeed, for its permanence above
the shoulders, on these safety pins. If
one of them ceased to be "safe' down
came the dress. When the "Tale of
Troy" was acted many years ago by
the ladies whom Sir Frederick Leighton
directed, the pins caused great search
ing of hearts. However, they never
failed to do their duty.
Peplos and Belted Smock.
This fashion alone the Cretan ladies
of 2500-1400 B. G. never evolved and
DO safety pins are found in the older
sites of Cretan civilization. They come
in at the end of that period. AS they
are also found far away in the north
in Bosnia and Austria and all across
Eastern Central Europe, it is probable
that sthey were brought south from
these quarters by the prehistoric an
cestors of the Greeks, the Achaeans,
Dorians and SO forth. The women would
wear the peplos, the men belted smock
or chiffon, with a cloak over it, also
fastened with a safety pin, in cold
weather.
We nave in Homer full description
of the smock, cloak and elaborate gold
safety pin of Odysseus, and his swine
herd belts of smock before he goes on
a journey. This is the dress that Homer
describes. In war man put his corselet
on over his chiffon, of which the tails
must have hung down below it. Obvi-
ously the dress is that of a climate too
cold to be content with the southern
loin cloth; in fact, it is very like the
smoek and brooched and belted plaid
of the Highlanders before the philabeg
or separate skirt came into use, with
the coat over which the plaid is now
worn.

WOMEN WILL VOTE
ON IRRIGATION TAX

MODESTO, California, December S.
Votes for women will become a reality
in Modesto, January 5, 1910. At a
meeting held yesterday the directors
called an election to be held on that
date to decide whether or not the i'm
provements in the Modesto irrigation
district shall be exempt from taxation.
According to an amendment to the
Wright irrigation law passed by the
last legislature this question must be
decided by the taxpayers of the irriga-
tion district.
As large proportion of the property
owners are women they will have the
same privilege in voting as do the men.
AS far as known this will be the first
instance in California where women
have voted at such an election. The
law has been thoroughly gone over by
attorneys for the Modesto district, and
they have advised the directors that
women as well as oriental property
owners, will be entitled to vote.
According to the provisions of the
Modesto irrigation district was formed,
all improvements in the district were
subject to the irrigation tax. This in
cludes business property in the incor,
porated towns and the improvements
thereon. The last legislature adopted
an amendment providing that the PEG
pie of any irrigation district may by
majority vote remove the tax from
improvements and put it entirely on
the land.
1t is said by those who are in favor
of taking the tax off Improvements that
it has deferred many people from i'm
proving their city property and thai
its removal will be followed by a re
markable building boom in Modesto and
other towns in the district.

Ketchell whipped left to kidneys and
missed two hard swings to the jaw.
1t was noticeable that Johnson's right
uppercut, which he used with such
good effect in other fights, had little
effect upon Ketchell. The Michigan

landing terrific right almost on jaw

nose and soon thereafter repeated it.
At every clinch Ketchell was playing
with short arm blows for stomach.
In clinch Ketchell uppercut hard to

champion who rushed in, landing left
and right on body, Ketchell slipped
to floor with considerable force He
was up quickly and rushed in, but
had great difficulty in getting under
Johnson's long reach. johnson mere

percut with left to face as they broke
from clinch. Just before round end
ed Johnson swung right to jaw. Ket-
chel went to his corner dancing, how
ever, and looked fresh. Johnson
kept up running fire of conversation
with seconds during minute respite.

lead, to which the Champion failed
to respond. Ketchell showed unex-
pected cleverness at blocking negroes
leads, whenever johnson chose to
lead. Johnson flung left twice to the
face and men spared at long range,
Johnson working in left to the face.
Neither man showed damage as the
round ended. Few leads marked
round, Johnson having shade.

face with succession of lefts to jaw
Ketchell continued to force pace, but
was met with two lefts on nose that

as though he was holding back. In
every clinch during the fight Ketchell
was bent backward by superior
weight and strength of negro.

with two lefts on nose, Ketchell
countering with hard left hook to
body. Johnson shot another straight

to stop flowing blood from his nos
trils. At close quarters, johnson
landed several times on nose and face
Suddenly Ketchell swung left with
terrific force and it caught the cham
pion on jaw, raising big lump that
was perceptible to spectators.
1t was by far the cleanest and best
blow of fight and immense crowd
rose to its feet yelling gleefully.

SCIENCE.

At certain points known to
those famous scientists in their
marvellous (fairy) researches, it
seems hard to tell where the ami
NAL and the vegetable kingdoms
part company; it seems but hair
line (bee-line). If one takes the
exquisite feathers as seen on a
butterAy's wing (by aid of micro
scope) and the dainty wings of an
orchid rare, where is he? 1t is
hardly apparent, at least to an or
binary observer, which is fly and
which is flower! 1t is too abb
struse for us we admit, and we
will leave it all for those tireless
savanS, not Of Germany and of the
Sorbo,ule only, etc, but of Our own
dear Washington, D. c., Virginia,
Georgia, Harvard, Oxford, and all
the other learned dons.
One thing is certain, the appe-
tite grows by what it feeds on;
and, there are men in England to-
day, who are spending part OF
large fortunes in private labora-
tories, experimenting and diving

us that the inmates (strange
word, "inmate") should work at
that for which they have a bent
and knowledge, and that which
will bring in the most revenue for
the Territory. If man can make
more money at his trade or pro-
fession, several dollars a day for
instance, we cannot see the utility
of putting him to work on the
roads. There is room enough,
even under that tree, to carry on
real money-making, and a man is
happier and better, more cheerful,
where he can make whole lot of
money from his skill and BRAIN
work even if he knows it must go
into the public Golfers. The wo-
men, too, can more than earn
their keep in needle work, weav-
ing mats and hats or even broom

tiful we have ever seen and we
believe is Providential and the
words spoken under it's shade
shall be for the healing of many
wounds. We spoke with a noted
prisoner and he remarked that his
old-time friends did not visit him
We would not add to his bitter
cup (far from it) by speaking any
trite words Of philosophy, way

the minute to distract his gloomy
thoughts by reminding him of an
American friend. The singing
was good and we asked for Ha-
waiian. We spent pleasant if
sad hour and would wish to say
that many ought to go and see
the inhabitants of that place.
There is one suggestion we would
like to offer, if we may be per-
mitted: that the mattresses, both
for health and as matter of
economy, be raised from the floor
say foot or so, possibly by
means of a truckle-bedstead. 1t
could be made solid and yet mex
pensive. A mattress on the floor
cannot be properly aired, cannot
be as clearly and must perforce
be easily defaced and worn. The
truckle need be no wider than the
bed.

after the secrets of nature. Is it
not wiser than spending so much
on yachts or at Monte Carlo?
1t is the rule in Washington,
D. c., for the President to attend
Divine service on a Sunday. Con-
sequently all officials attend as
we'll as foreign diplomats. The
population attend rich and poor
alike, black and white alike-mu-
latto, quadroon and octoroon.
They are all as rule in some
place of worship, not in the morn
ing only but in the evening as
we'll. In looking over an Epis-
copal church in the evening we
spoke of the large number of
gray-headed men, present.
Should you ever be present at
the House of Parliament in ses-
sion, you will notice the very
same strange thing; part of the
wisdom of England is there!
Years and the gray matter arc
not despised or relegated to
back seat by the conceit and up
startishness of youth; that is re-
served for insular and provincial
towns west of the Rockies, home
of the Doors and coyotes and knife
in the mouth What can they
know of the edge of Damascus
blade, a Greek ode or Yankee
ridicule. 1t tells in the Bible of
the fool king who called young
men to be his advisers. 1t is a
good thing that with years and
wisdom, patience serves as hand
maid.
