Society's Cruel Exactions.
n. O. States.

Mrs. Howard Gould, when pla-
ced on the stand in the celebrated
divorce case in which she is the
principal figure. told of the needs
of a woman in her circle of socie-
ty, the duties she has to perform
and the labor she has to undergo
to meet the requirements of her
station in life, all of which lead
naturally to the conclusion that if
she became addicted to the flow
ing bowl there was some excuse
for it.
She asserted that when she goes
for a sojourn at fashionable no.
tel she changes her costumes three
times a day, and each costume
must have hats, shoes, stockings
and petticoats to match. The ill.,
sxorable law of New York society,
according to Mrs. Gould, forbids
a costume to be worn more than
once at the same hotel. To keep
these costumes and the many diff
ferent things that belong to them
in a condition of distinct separa-
ton is evidently a Misunderstanding
task, to say nothing of the labor
and trouble involved in putting
on and taking off 30 many clothes
every day.
But this is not all. Most of US,
we think, can imagine the infiuite
torture she endured in being fit
ted to ninety dresses which are
necessary for a mouths stay any
where. We are quite sure there
we're times when Mrs. Gould
yearned for the simple luxury of
a loose gingham wrapper and a
pair of carpet slippers, but her
pride would not permit her to re-
vel in the rest and comfort they
would afford. Society called for
dress and she obeyed the imperi-
Gus mandate with a gait 80 rapid
that more than 100000 of the
Gould fortune vanished within a
period of eight years. That she
was going it some during that
time there eau be no doubt, and
that matrimonial explosions were
inevitable the public will admit
but the wonder is that she has
been able to stand the physical
strain of getting in and getting
out of the many hundreds OF
dresses she had.
Many of US have heard of the
English nobleman who deliberate
ly blew his brains out in order tc
escape the monotonous perfor
nance of undressing and going tt
bed at night only to get up anc
dress again in the morning, but i
is evident that Mrs. Howard
Gould was made a stronger STUFF
that the languid Englishman.

CHOICE MISCELLANY
Didn't Lose His Head.

a little knowledge is dangerous
thing to the man who handles dyna-
mite. Italian laborers who never read
up on explosives and have no supersti-
lions about them are seldom injured
through any faulty handling of their
own. If your dynamite freezes. thaw
1t out. If you drop an armful of it on
the ground, all you have to do is to
pick it up. Some italian laborers were
digging a well. They got down about
a dozen feet and struck rock. The
foreman improvised Il ladder, drilled
hole and inserted a half pound Of
dynamite. He lighted an ordinary fuse
and scrambled up the ladder. Before
he reached the surface his makeShift
ladder broke and down he tumblcd al
most on top of the spluttering fuse
Many Il better educated man would
have realized his awful peril to the
exclusion of every other thought. The
Italian foreman whipped out his peck
etknife and clipped off the burning
fuse. When he appeared at the sur
face, grinning. he exhibited the car
fridge with Il bare inch of fuse stick
ing in it.-New York Press

The London Cabby,

The old London hanson driver who
Is being driven out of business by the
taXicab, is a miracle of honesty and
politeness and wonderfully sure whip.
He has need to be. He is pretty Sc
verely tested before he gets his license.
He has to satisfy the police that he
knows how to drive and. what Is far
harder. how to find his way about Lon
don. He must also furnish full ac-
count Of his life for the previous six
years. list of all the places at which
he has lived and testimonial and
recommendation from two household
ers. All his statements are verified
and man who finally succeeds In OBJ
tanning his license may pride himself
on certificate that is really worth
having. The best proof of its value
is that there is never any difficulty in
recovering an article that has been
lost in hanson.

Silo Notes.

The silo is a sign of dairy prosperity.
a COW to the acre is not impossible
when silage is fed.
Silagc makes splendid sheep feed
when used judiciously.
The time is coming when sios will
be as numerous as corncribS.
The man who has the largest milk
checks is the man who feeds silage.
The silage fed COW is very easy to
pick out. especially in the early sum-
mor or late spring.
Remember it's easier to fill and cas-
Ter to feed from two small silos than
one large one. The silage will keep
better too.
The silo is appreciated at no season
more than just between winter and
summer feeds. The hay is usually
low, and the cattle are hungry for
green. succulent feed. Silagc bridges
over the season and brings the stock
out in good condition. -Kimbalrs Dairy

Streaky Butter.

Streaky or notified butter may be
caused by the salt or it may be due
to the working Of the butter. The salt
Is so evenly diffused in the finest kind
of butter that. as is shown by micro
scope, every grain is surrounded by a
film of clear and transparent brine,
which points out the necessity of avoid
ing the overworking of the butter be-
fore the salt is added. In the first
working every particle Of the milk
should be got rid of, but enough
clear water should be left to dissolve
every grain of salt in twelve hours
before the next working. If this is
done there will he but little danger
of streakiness in the butter but to get
the best results the salt should be very
finely ground

SHETLAND PONIES.
Raised With Profit In Several States.
Their Good Points

Raised With Profit IN Several States.
Their Good Points.
The business of raising Shetland
ponies has become Il profitable ana i'm
portant industry in several states. The
little animals seem to thrive better in
the northern and middle states than
in the extreme south. doubtless be-
cause of their origin in the rigorous
climate of the Shetland islands. This
Is true only with reference to their
breeding, for the Shetland pony is Il
true cosmopolitan, ut home in all lands
md III all climes, and is perhaps IN
equalcd by any other animal in points
of hardness and endurance In de-
scribing Il Shetland's points an author
lty writes as follows:
1.-THE head should not be too fine,
and the eye should be prominent. the
ears of good size and set well forward
The neck is thick and crested high up,
so that the impression is conveyed
that the crest extends right up to the
ears. This gives appearances Of great
strength in the neck and, added to the
broad shoulders. enables the pony to
draw great weights. The neck should
be of good length and the back, Of
course, short. The rib should be very
we'll sprung, any indication Of slab
sido0ness ilavoring of the Icelander
The quarters should be as round as
all apple ana the tail set on moderately
high.
In short. the Shetland pony should
pass muster when judged by the
points Of n horse. and there must be
no appearance of delicacy about him.
Nothing c1fcminate will do for Il Shet-
land stallion. \ poor neck is a fatal
fault, and for the same reason nothing
coarse will do for mare The geldings

RUMORED that
GOLDFIELD WAS
BURNING down
SMALL BLAZE IN SOUTHERN
CITY GIVES RISE TO
STARTLING REPORT

1t was reported around Tonopah
last evening that Goldfield was be-
ing visited by a serious confiagra-
ton, and for a time considerable
excitement was caused. Telephone
advices received from the southern
camp stated that small fire had
occurred at Jake's dance hall, which
resulted in one side of the building
being burned. The damage was
slight as the fire department had
the blaze under control in no time
Dancing was quickly resumed.
About the time the report was
spread here a huge white vapory
cloud, which appeared more like a
fog, was noticed over Mt Brougher,
and this bore close resemblance to
smoke. It's appearance gave added
strength to the rumor that Gold
field was in flames, but when the
true facts were made known, the
cloud resumed it's natural distinc-
ton.

Returns FROM
INSPECTION Of
COPPER Mine
FRANK EVERETT STATES THAT
WAGNER DISTRICT is
QUITE ACTIVE

Frank Everett, who is largely in
terested in the Wagner Azurite Cop
per company at Wagner, returned
last evening from a trip to that
district and reports the company
property as in excellent condition.
Eve are running crosscuts from
the 400 foot level of the property"
said Mr.. Everett, ''and are also
drifting on the 200 foot level. On
the last named level we expect to
find the ore shoot that was cut in
sinking the shaft. The drift at the
present has some very good ore ex-
posed. A crosscut that was sent
out to the east on this level is in a
quartzite formation, which is heav-
lily iron stained. Indications point
to an ore body existing in this ter
ritory and the crosscut will be con-
tinued in the hope of picking it up.
In working to the west the prop
er rhyolite formation for copper ore
has shown up. This crosscut will
be continued until the blue lime
| footwall is reached on the west side
of the rhyolite. In traversing this
distance we expect to encounter a
body OF ore We intend to start
a winze in this working and sink tC
the water level. AS a whole the
property is looking fine and from
the surface indications we should
open up Several good bodies of ore
in the near future"
