PROUD DANES BROUGHT LOW
Amusing and At Times Painful Col.
lisions That Have Taken Place
In Bathrooms;

Quite unpleasant contretemps can
occur In a London ballroom. says the
Gentlewoman. as witness the adven-
lures of two ladies one evening not
long ago. The cotillon was being
danced and in one figure the object
was to Jump through q paper hoop.
This q well-known lady succeeded
in doing. only to come violently into
collision with another who was pre-
pared to precipitate herself through
the other side. At least one black
eye and other disagreeable results
have followed this inopportune meet
ing between two fair but overhasty
leaders of fashion.
Apparently the ballroom Is becom-
ing second only to the athletic field.
It was during the season just closed
that no less q parsonage than Mrs.
George Keppel. a favorite with King
Edward, came to grief in dancing the
cotillion.
One of the figures demanded that
the lady jump the rope. and in essay
ing this return to her somewhat dis
tant girlhood Mrs. Keppel had what
was described as "a nasty fall" which
laid her up for some time.

10 MEET IN ACTIVE VOLCANO
Initiation Ceremonies Of the
Mystic Shrine.

Mystic Shrine IL being arranged to be
held In the crater of the active vol
cano. Kilauea. on the Hawaiian islands.
BY Aloha temple In November. when
the ceremonial session Of the temple
win be held. says the San Francisco
Chronicle. The significant feature OF
the occasion viii be that the c1ndt-
dates win nearer approach the real
walk over hot sands" than any Of the
initiates on previous ceremonies Of
the lodge.
Potentate Charles q. Bockus Of
Aloha temple. arrived In the city on
the liner Manchuria for the purpose OF
making arrangements for the local
Islam temple. Of which william Crock
er is potentate, to be present at the
ceremonies.
The ceremonial session win be held
on Saturday morning and afternoon.
An immense tent win be erected on
the edge Of the volcano to accommo-
date the guests. The party, with the
candidates, will descend into the pit
of the volcano. where the ceremonies
will be held in view of the seething
mass Of burning lava below.

Father Makes q Plaster.

A small child over on Detroit ave.
nue. had q cold in the chest. After all
had retired the child's mother p0ked
an elbow into the ribs Of the child's
father and told him she believed he'd
better put on his bathrobe and run
down to the kitchen and get some
lard and place 1t on q cloth over the
little ones chest. The father obeyed.
and found the crock of lard on q pan
try shelf Just as he had been told he
would. He spread it over some cheese
cloth and pinned It to the boys chest.
and the next morning the lad was bet
ter. Then the mother discovered
something. The lard that the father
had brought in wasn't lard at all. 1t
was mashed potatoes. - Cleveland

Impressions Of New York.

What impressed me most when I
visited New York." says Harry Fur
Miss, the well.known English cartoon
list, in his "Reminiscences" in the
Strand, was the number Of chirop0-
dists' advertisements. They con-
fronted me everywhere. Huge gilded
models of feet outside the chirop0-
dists' establishments. some painted
realistically and many adorned with
bunions, seemed everywhere before
me as I passed through the streets. II
looked up saw them suspended
from the first-floor window. or painted
on canvas on the front Of house. II
I avoided the shops I was bound to
knock up against some gentleman In
the gutter encased in q long white
waterproof, on which were portrayed
the inevitable foot and name and ad-
dress of the chir0podist."

COMMUNICATED.

EDT0R CoLu1Bus JoURxAL:-Your
stand ION Crossing The Bridge" was
well taken think.
While We should not censure person
too severely for shouting warning cry
against eny advance movement, we
should at the present time ct least place
moro confidence in our President than
republicans arc inclined to do.
I think some republicans have become
unnecessarily frightened BY the din and
noise made by the democrats.
President Taft has taken the chair at
. very inopportune time; has he'd very
disagreeable and thankless job to per-
form ct the start. In localities where
the tariff seems to b detrimental to
local interests everybody has . kick
against the President; while in localities
that are benefited people think they only
have their just dues, and see no reason
to lsud any one.
When congress passed the Resumption
Act calamity was prophesied on every
side, but it was not loug until it could
easily be seen that it was Q masterstroke
OF craftsmanship and the same might be
said about most Of the laws passed by
tho republicans.
There is . great deal said against .
central bank; but il We could have some
such institution. properly safeguarded,
it certainly would have advantages in Q
time like We had two years ago this fall.
It seems wholly wrong for . person and
moro especially an editor to say he will
bolt the party when everything does not
60 just to suit him. Rather be should
60 to work to find lbetter. method to
accomplish the desired end; or wait and
see if the fallscies he has pointed out
cannot be overcome.
Our statesmen have to discuss con.
templated laws to zee il they will accom-
plish all that is wanted; to eco IL the
people are ready for such measures; and
to see if they have overlooked any weak
points. Postal savings banks have been
agitated for number Of years and will
soon come. It is . great deal better to
be year or two late in evolving Q new
Law than to make bungle Of it.
There is no doubt in any ones mind
but what President Taft is sincere and
honest and We should give him time to
make good. We should not Judge him
by the tariff which can never be any
thing but compromise under the pres
emit way of establishing them. We are
all anxious to have President Taft step
in and force congress to decision on
the tariff but We wanted the decision
made our way.

ANYTHING IN THIS.

Andrew D. White once wrote:
"Among the curiosities of recent civil
ization, perhaps the most absurd is the
vast tax laid upon all nations at a
whim Of q knot of the least respectable
women in the most debaunched capi.
tai in the world. = Young men,
in vast numbers, especially in our
cities and large towns, are harnessed to
work As otherwise they would not be-;
their best aspirations thwarted, their
noblest ambitions sacrificed, to enable
the partners of their joys and sorrows
to vie with each other in reproducing
the last grotesque absurdity issued
from the precincts of Notre Dame de
Lorette, or to satisfy other caprices
less ignoble. The main hope for the
abatement of this nuisance, which is
fast assuming the proportions of .
curse, is not in any church, for, de-
spite the pleadings of the most devot-
ed pastors, the church edi6ces are the
chosen theaters of this display; it
would seem rather to be the infusion.
BY . more worthy education of ideas
which would enable women to WELD
religion, morality and common sense
against this burden, some perversion
Of her love for the beautiful. This
would not be to lower the sense of
beauty and appropriateness in Coz.
tune; thereby would come an esthetic
sense which would lift our best women
into . sphere Of beauty where the
Partisan grotesque would not be tol.
srated; thereby, too, would come, if
It oil, the strength of character which
would cause woman to cultivate her
'wn taste for simple beauty in form
md color, and to rely on that, rather |
han on the latest within of any fool. |

ret driven out of the Tuilleries or the |

ANOTHER BRYAN.

Ruth Bryan.Leavitt (Note.-Her
father paid q small fortune in order
that she might write her name by.

dacy for the Democratic nomination
for congress from the First Colorado
district.
Ruth is DESTROYS ofnot only helping
out the Sisterhood of Suffragettes, but
she has the greater ambition of wish.
ing to have the name of Bryan on the
nation's payroll again. She relies
largely upon What She Has Done for
Women to get the support of the wo-
men in Colorado. What::has she done,
do you ask? Didn't her Husband
Treat her Mean, and didn't she Re.

the Softy Women who are patient and

WICKED OLD NEW YORK.

WICKED OLD NEW YORK.
Why do not the muckrakers pay
more attention to New York city?
That is the most corrupt city in the
United States, and the officials are i'm
pudent as well as dishonest. The New
York police run the city to suit them
selves, whether the administration is
Democratic or Republican. Places
are provided in NewlYork city for
politicians by creating inspectors" for
corporations. This is an old trick
everywhere..alnong Reformers, but no
where is it carried 80 far as in New
York. There are hundreds of Gin
spectors" in New York city who make
no pretense of working. City print.
ing in New York costs nearly a million
dollars year, and more than half of
it is graft. Articles that cost 81 in the
open market, cost $40 when bought
for the city. The New York people
are familiar with a thousand forms of
theft from the public treasury, but
make little protest. The muck rakers
pay little attention to New York city,
prefering places like San Francisco,
where theft is not so common. New
York city is like a scarlet woman; no
one pays any attention to her depravi-
ty, but how people talk about . wo-
man on whom there is one "story"
Philadelphia is nearly as bad Is New
York, and that town is also neglected
by the muck rakers. But how furious
the New York and Philadelphia pa.
pers are because an occasional glass of
beer is sold in Kansas!-Drake Wat.
son.
The Columbus journal., 1909-10-27

Our brother in red is not striking
proof of the theory that civilization
tends to race suicide. The Indian is
multiplying under the influence of
civilization, as he gets it. The more
civilization, the more Indians in the
west. If this process could be carried
on to what some people may claim to
be its logical results, the results might
be the return of the Indian, thriving
under civilization, to the possession of
the land-if the theory Of white sui
eide was more tenable than it Is. The
official figures are interesting none the
less. The Indian population of the
United States has increased about 49,
600 during the last twenty years.
Within that time approximately $780,.
100000 has been expended BY the
government in works designed to give
Indians the opportunities and the
necessary means and appliances for
learning how to work, which is about
the best means of civilizing anybody.
Spending hundred millions to make
10000 new Indians may not be re-
garded by everybody Is civilizing
work. The old notion that the Indian
is . dead one is not the motive of
the work of making new live Indians
to take the places Of those who had
died during the many years in which
the death rate was exceeding the birth
rate among nearly al the tribes. |
But it is the policy Of the government |
and it is certain 70 be justified in |
economic results, a it Is always JUS
tilted from . civilized humanitarian |
point of view.-St Louis Globe |
