Police officers in Kenosha and Mil

had made a decidedly valuable, catch
in the arrest of negro by the name Of
Woodbridge but later the man was dis
charged as he failed to answer the
description of Ed. Woodbridge wanted

requires is that a hall shall be provided
for the meetings and there is no town

free and as their value is Acknowledged
this county is overlooking a good thing
in not getting more Of them. It is a
fact that those counties which have
taken the fullest advantages of the OBJ

the state are making the most progress
along the general and specialized lines
of scientific agriculture and when equal
advantages are offered to all it is rath-
er a pity not to use them.

1t is a curious thing, as noticed
frequently by the writer, that this
general fear on the part of animals
of the warning Of the rattlesnake is
instinctively taken advantage of by
many harmless snakes. In Florida

most uncomfortable for brief periods
by the rapid tattoo on dead leaves

stroke, such as a four-fOOt snake
would inflict on a fieshy part Of the

NEW YORK MAYOR ECONOMIES.
If Gotham Citizens Want Celebration

The old-fashioned Fourth of July
that New York is to have this year
will be new-fangled in one particular
at least-Mayor Gaynor announces
that the city will not pay the bills.

at meeting Of the committee ap-
pointed by him to formulate plans.

it, then well and good. If not / will

If a general fund is needed no doubt

All parading military organiza-

furnish their own music at their own
expense. If it were decided to give
an exhibition of fireworks on the
night of the Fourth the city would
pay for that, but not more. The
committee will endeavor to raise
100000 by subscription for the ex-

Perhaps the most wretched races
of beings dwell at the two extremes
.of the American continent, at the
north the Eskimos and at the south
the Fuegians OF these the Fuegians
seem to be the lowest in the civilized
scale. Their hideously ugly faces ex-
press the grossest stupidity, and their
persons are both stunted and mis-
shapen. The average height of the
men does not exceed feet inches
that of the women feet 8 inches,
and owing to their habit of standing
IN a STOPPING attitude they look even
less than their actual height.
Although they are veritable pig
mics in stature, yet their bodies are
exceedingly large, and their general
appearance is such as might result
from lacking onto the trunk of gil

Their color appears to be copper
bronze, but, as nearly all are be-
grimed by smoke it is difficult to
specify their precise hue. The very
young children are light brown in
color, with the exception of the
palms of the hands and soles of the
feet, which are a dirty yellow.

WOMEN HAVEN'T MADE GOOD

Promises of What Would Occur If the

We trust that we shall not be con-
sidered ungallant If we apply the
homeIy old proverb, that "the proof
of the pudding is in the eating" to
the fair sex, and the record it is maxi

IA California newspaper. We are not
discussing, of course, the question
whether the ballot should be given
to our wives, our mothers and our
sWeethearts, but we would simply
point out that many of the things
which the late Miss Susan B. An
thony promised if the male biped
would allow his consort to vote have
not come to pass; and, in fact. show
no signs of being realized. It was
said, and, in fact, no statement has
been so often made or more emphat-
ically reiterated by the friends of
woman suffrage, that if the women

which conveyed that information to
the outside world also added that
the women joined with the men in

The result in Denver, however
should cause no surprise, since in
Idaho, where woman has the right
to vote, there is no prohibition;
neither is there in Wyoming, where
she has the same privilege. In Kan
sas, however, where she has no right
to vote; in Maine and in the Dakotas,
where she is also without the ballot,
and in the south, where she does not
even ask for it, prohibition has car
ried by big majorities.
But her failure to support prohi-
bition is not the only divergence
which the woman voter has shown
between what she was to do and
what she has done when the right of
suffrage was given her. Suffrage,
