MOQuI INDIANS MORAL RACE
Dr. J. Walter Fewkes Praises Morals of Moqui Indians Recent Troubles Brought on by Whites, if there Is any Trouble.

zona are the one American tribe which civilization has not succeed ed in spelling and despoiling. Their barron mesa and the dry des- ert surrounding them have never been coveted by the white man. They have never owned furs or oth- re valuable commodities, and so the whisky and other traders have all ways passed them by. They are to- day as they have been for centuries. a peope sufficient unto themselves, asking nothing of us but to be ai- lowed to live their lives in their own way, We have it on the au- thority of Dr. J. Walter Fewkes. the eminent archaeologist. who lived with them for years, learned their language and was initiated into all the rites of their religion, that they are immeasurably our su- periors in morality. They do not lie, nor steal. nor islander. and their women are almost without ex- ception modest and virtuous. Their little fields of maize. beans and squashes and modest flocks of sheep are. as they always have been. sufficient for all their needs.
 What little contact the Hopi peo- pie have had with civilization has not been of character to impress them with it's desirability. White men have stolen their sheep and raided and wantonly destroyed their gardens. Not SO very long ago more than three hundred of them died from an out break of smallpox
 -died so fast that the living could not decently bury them, and the bodies were thrown over the cliffs by the weeping and terror-stricken relatives. A government official had been warned when the first per son fell i'll of the disease. but he would neither go himself nor send a physician to see if the report was true. A missionary who lived among them was instructed by east ern charitable societies to distrib- ute among his charges the quanti- ties of clothing and toys annually sent him. But. instead of doing so, he made the people pay for them in rare pieces of their prehistoric and modern pottery. and he sold the collection for 5000 and left the country. Of course they learned about this in time and the knowledge did not tend to increase their liking for the white man s priests.
 The Hopis have never made war upon the whites. The only white men they have killed have been missionaries. They are probably the most deeply religious people in the world. Almost every act of their daily life has religions mo- tive They even weave prayers in- to the designs of their basketry and paint them on their beautiful pot trey. As soon as the little children begin to have glimmer of under stranding they begin to teach them to love and reverence the gods. They resent any interference with these teachings; hence their hatred of missionaries. and of schools es- pecially. is deep and bitter and un- shakable. What they have most resented has been the arbitrary re- movaI of their children to non-res- ervation schools. where the young are forced to attend the religious services of Christians, It is for hidden tn teach religion to our

Spain "Picking Up"

The sad straits for money into which
other European countries have been
driven by eXtravagant expenditure make
a dark background against which the ex-
cellenr financial condition OF the Span
ish government IS set off like bright
light. Her surplus income of late has
ranged from S1O.OO0.0OO to $2O,OO0.OOO
a wear. and while her neighbors have
been piling up additional debts, she has
heen whiting down hers and lowering
the amount annually due for interest.
Never in the memory of the present gen.
Grafton has the credit of Spain stood so
we'll at home and abroad as at the pres
ent time.
The fact is that, to borrow a homely
figure. Spain was kicked up stairs as
result of the war of 1898. The loss of
her colonies. while humiliating to her
rational pride. lightened her of a bur-
den that had been keeping her poor.
Her spirit is returning with the increase
of her material prosperity. She is now
INDUCING hopes of extending her trade
relations with foreign nations. The fact
that she has no military aspirations
that she does not expect to cut a path
for her commerce with the sword, makes
friends for her in quarters where a high
handed carriage would provoke suspicion
if not hostility. The United States
stands ready to welcome closer trade
relations with Spain. The wounds of
war will be healed with the oil of mu-
tual interest.

Three Hook Hotels.

'tNobody seems to have word to say
in behalf of the needs of the travelling
woman" said a woman, according to the
Boston Herald, whose calling keeps her
moving about. and yet she has serious
cause of complaint against the average
hotel of this land. It's three hooks. That
is what she has to hang her clothes on.
81 wonder that the commercial travel
ers of the country can continue to look
so well groomed, for this three-hook ho-
tel is said to be deliberately designed to
meet their needs. 1t is a growth of the
last five or six years and especially
thrives in the middle west.
MY profession keeps me from two
weeks to a month in each city and as
when | start out l go on tour from SIN
to ten months, naturally have several
trunks of clothes and always some even
ing things. How can | manage with three
hooks? And the hotel managers usually
say when l demonstrate: But this is
commercial mans hotel
$50 now I am of the opinion that such
men have three garments only. And the
hotel men seem incensed because L have
more.
81 cannot understand why the women's
clubs haven't considered the travelling
question. With more and more women on
the road every year in business and con-
tinually increasing numbers in pursuit

''Some mighty good hotels. too, have
the three hook habit. One of the best
automobile hotels in New England never
has more than three hooks in a room ex-
cept in the private bath suites, and even
then there is only one more hook. But
what sense is there in three hooks in an
immense room containing one double
bed. one single bed and a folding bed?
''But there is one hotel in western
Pennsylvania that deserves to be famous.
1t is run by rich and cranky old bach
elor. at least he is so cranky about wom-

the first woman, except the 'milliner
from New York. who had stayed in the

every comfort of home in the rooms. But

saying great DEAL for she does not Of a class
given to raising quiver-ful Dr. Smiths comparison
of college with their noncolege relatives went
to show that neither had of quite two lv-
ing children with the college woman trife below the

Emerging from the thcket of figures and contradc-
lions which surrounds the marriage of the girl gradu
ate there arises another difficulty, but happily less
perpexing If she decides not to enter the state OF
matrmony and rear a small but admirable family, what
happens to her? How does she earn living?
In the old days wellbred and wel-educated woman
could teach and she could do nothing else Nowadays
while many professions open to her. she still chooses
this in preference to other, although the
proportion of graduates it claims is not large as for

ogy are attracting great many. Such professions will
doubtless begin to rival teaching and professors
of economies in womens colleges bear this in mind.
Turning again to the admirable statistics of Bryn

ing of graduates without occupation there
are left about $50 who living. OF this number
145 is high percentage The percentage is not, how

greatest being under the Strait Of Mes

Commenting on the recent announce

have been ascribed by its discoverer.
DR.. Bailey, of Chicago, Frederick Sod
DIV remarks that the description of this
substance bears an obvious resem-
blance to radio-thorium, which has
been well known for some time. The
cheapness Of the new substance Is ex-
plotted. but radio-thorium can be OBJ
tanned from the thorium salts which
are manufactured by the ton in the
Welsbach mantle industry, and Profess
sorRutherford long ago suggested that
it might servo as a cheap and effect
i've substitute for radium for many
purposes. Thorium produces meso-
thorium, and from meso-thorium comes
forth radio-thorium. It's activity is not
permanent. like that of radium, but 1t
would last for many years, and for
most purposes would be as valuable
as radium.

going until his logs are in knots; still, he.
doesn't sink. He plugs along until there
isn't another kick in him. and even now
he doesn't go down. Instead of that he
rolls over on his back and waits for the
boat to pick him up. 1t may be min
ute or it may be an hour, but until the
boat comes the expert will be floating
around like chip.
When you catch cramp in your arms
or legs don't get excited. You may yell,
but keep yourself under control. Don't
exert yourself, for it takes little or no
effort to keep afoat. Crash down the
feeling of panic. Stretch out your arm
or leg, as the case may be. until you
are straining to the utmost. Then strain
a bit harder, and. watch the Jumped mus

New York Physicians Alarmed.

1t does not always pay to raise prices.
The physicians Of New York are coming
to this conclusion now. A year ago they
fixed So as the regular fee for visit
and laid down the rule that the fee
should be paid at the time of render
ing the service. Now they are complain
ing that their incomes have fallen off
20 to so per cent.
Several causes contribute to the shrink
age in doctors incomes, and there is
reason for suspicion that one of them
is the raising of the fee. Many
man who would rush to the telephone
to summon a doctor if the fee were So
would think twice about it if obliged to
pay S., and his second thought would
the call. After a few checked impulses
the habit of checking the impulse might
become so firmly fixed that doctors
would be called only in case of urgent
need. .
The rise of the Christian Science and
Emmanuel cults has made inroads upon
the business of regular practitioners of
medicine. There are doctors who think
that people in the aggregate are more
careful about eating and drinking than
they used to be, and are practicing the
precaution of leaving their windows open
which the medical fraternity has adj
vocated insistently fol- many years-and
that these things exert a favorable in
f1uence upon the health of the COM
munity. With less sickness there is
necessarily less frequency in calls for
medical attendance.
Still another factor may perhaps ex-
ert some infuence-the number Of ply
sicians in proportion to the population
must have Increased considerably in the
past few years, owing to the increase in
the output of graduates by the medical
colleges.
Some of these factors began to operate
years ago, but all of them are more ac-
tive and influential now than ever be-
fore, and the increase Of physicians
fees may have tended to bring them
sharply into operation. Certainly the
situation is worth noting. If it has
the effect of directing to other fields
some of the young men who have been
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of entering
the medical profession, that outcome will
not be deplorable. There are men in
the medical profession because they feel
irresistibly called. That element in
the student body will not be deferred
by the prospect of dwindling financial
rewards. The class of men who go into
medicine as gainful occupation may
well be spared to enter some other field.
