on probably seventy five tons of coal de-
sired for use In heating orchards to pre-
vent loss OF fruit crop.
] think you Will agree with me that
the case in question is not one that
should properly cell for special action
upon the part of the railroads, first, for
the reason that the amount of money
nvolved is very small; and. secondly, X
is not a subject for consideration from
an emergency or calamitous standpoint,
I assume from Mr.. Fishers letter that
he and others In the fruit-raising bust
ness on the east bench desire TO use this
means 10 insure this seasons crop, and.
supposing that nine other growers are
interested. the expense TO each, so far as
freight rates are concerned, would
amount 10 s13.12, added TO Sl6.S7. which

coal would make total expense to each
grower OF s2999. which would be quite
an insignificant sum as compared with
the value OF their property thus pro-
tected or insured. With kind regards

Last September Much Bad Luck went to the undertaken and in voice chok- ing with sobs tried to buy a casket for his son, who had died short time before. The Indian wished his son to be buried American fashion" The few dollars the old man had would scarcely buy the silver mountings on the casket of his choice, so he was told that the casket would be re served for him until he earned money enough to pay for it. The Indian left Dayton the next day. He told the undertaken how he had saved the pennies from his meager earnings Somewhere in the hills east of Dayton the old mans son is buried. The body will be exhumed and placed in the ex pensive casket.

4s FRIENDS SAW WHISTLER.
Much Allowance Made by Writer for Acknowledged Peculiarities of
 Great Artist.

It was Whistlers complaint that the world never understood him; but he himself was largely to blame for this. In surroundings of antagon- isIn," he once confessed. T wrap my self in species of misunderstanding Again and again he took deliberate pleasure in befuddling people. Even the matter of his birthplace was the subject of bon mot which wrapped the whole subject in obseurity. He was born in Lowell Mass, July 10, 1884. But when an article in French magazine gave Baltimore as his birth place, and the mistake was many times repeated, he did not take the trouble to deny it. My dear Cousin Kate, he said to Mrs Livermore, If anyone likes to think I was born in Baltimore, why should I deny it? It is of no consequence to me" To an American who introduced himself by saying, You know, Mr. Whistler, we were born at Lowell, and at very much the same time; you are 67 and I am 6S," he replied; Very charming And so you are 6S, and were born at Low ell, Mass.l But shall be born when and where l want, and I do not choose to be born at Lowell, and l refuse to be 67i"
 Something of this same fantastic spirit ran through Whistler's whole life. He refused to treat people-and especially people whom he did not like-serlously. He delighted in ban ter and persifiage. He loved to tan talize. He was something of brag- gadoeio. But these attitudes, we are coming to see more and more clearly, were the expressions not of a shallow nature, but of man ultra sensitive and intensely in earnest, who found in them his readiest weapon of defense against Philistine world.-Current Literature.

JOKES ABOUT Tnf MoTntR-IN-IAw.

We thoroughly agree with the est ~emed editor of the Meridian fMiss. ) Dispatch in his conclusions about mother-in-law. We have one, and we know whereof he speaks. The Dispatch says:
 he stale jokes that are usually perpertatei on the mother-in-law are still being gotten off in min strels and cheap shows and also in many newspapers.
 Of course, many of them are jokes, but they give rise to prej- udice that should not really exist
 It is true there are often cases Of welded life in which there is too much mother-in-law,' but these cases are the exception rather than the rule.
 There are thousands of mer who have learned to love theil mothers-in-law with as much de- votion as they have loved their owr dear mothers. who, in some in stances, have passed into another
The Huttig news., 1910-05-28

world, and the mother-in-law to a great extent fills the place of the one who has gone.
 Tt is the same way with mar ried women. A great number of them learn to love the mother ot their husbands in most devoted way.
 It is often the case that the mother-in-law comes to the helr of loved ones when they most need it. She of sl others. is devoted to the grandchildren and 1t is often that the grandchildren are devoted to her as much as to their own mothers.
 The mother-in- law is the worst abused woman in the world. Of ten she is one of the best in the world.
 Tt is true that many of the mother-in-law jokes are merely jokes. some of them handed down through the ages, but sometimes they must sting the heart of a good woman. Things said as a joke, especially about family affection, are often daggers that pierce the heart.
 With so much said about the mother-in. law, The Dispatch is much disposed to defend her.
 She is often a household neces- sity. She bestows kindness when others forget or neglect to do so. She is always interested in the welfare of the family of her son or daughter, as the case may be. She well knows that the happiness ot one depends upon the happiness of the other in married life.
 The good mother-in-law never foments strife; rather, she does all she can to keep it down and Ter own experience in married life aids her to do this.
 " A good wife is the best gift God ever gave to man. Outside of ones own mother, good mother-in-law comes next.
 There will be jokes about her probably as long as the world stands; there have been jokes about her since the marriage rela- ton was decreed; but there are thousands of men and women all over this country who know and love her for her real worth and gentle character.

MEAN METHOD OF ROBBERY.
In Garb of Woe Philadelphia Woman Attended Funerals and Robbed
 the SorroWinq.

Originally arrested on a charge of drunkenness, woman who says she is Annie Allen, sometimes of Camden, Gloucester and Philadelphia, was ar raigned before Magistrate Gallagher in the Twentieth district police sta tion on suspicion of being funeral thief" who has been much sought by the authorities, says the Philadelphia Record. When taken into custody at the Broad street station the woman carried small handbag, which on be- ing searched was found to contain more than seventy pawntickets, to- gether with black veils and other mourning apparel, which the police say she used in attending funerals as a professional emourner"
 The pawntickets found in her pos session bore the names of 24 different pawnbrokers, with places of business in all sections of the city. Many com plaints have been received from houses of mourning where petty rob berries have been committed while the services were in progress, and the police say the woman now in custody admits that she has put on her black veil and mourning raiment and at tended funerals for the purpose of robbery. Pending further investiga- ton of her career and to give the DO lice time to find out the owner of some of the articles called for on the pawn tickets found in her possession, the ac- cused was held in $500 bail for a fur ther hearing.

Died Like Joan of Arc.

An extraordinary tragedy, attributed to mystical madness, is reported from the village of St. Julien, near Chalon sur Saone, France. A woman named Madame Bounuet after attending a church service where she heard a sermon on Joan of Arc, shut herself up in disused chapel, saturated her clothes with inflammable spirits, and built funeral pyre of straw and wood. which she ignited. She was found by the neighbors kneeling amidst the flames and praying to Joan of Arc.
 Though promptly rescued and ren- dered every assistance, she died short ly afterwards in frightful agony.
