1t was but natural that a strike, with
its dramatic features and enforced idle
ness for the strikers, should impress
Itself upon s~choolboys. In Jersey City
the object-lesson of the recent strike of

strength. Boys in several of the schools
are out on strike and are going through
all the motions. It's a new game for

of it. If it is necessary, however, ar
ents of the strikers can put a period
to the strike at n given moment.

A Colorado woman, suing for a
separation on the ground of cruelty,
says that her wealthy husband has
during their married life consistently
refused to buy her a hat or to give
her money with which 20 buy one.
She says his annual income is $4,000.
She should have charged extreme and
unusual cruelty. Surely a man making
that much money can afford a hat for
his wife-not often-but occasionally.
She may have made a mistake in the
beginning by wanting him to pay too
much for a hat, but eve a scare like
that is not sufficient excuse for his
continued and determined refusal. The
court awarding her a separation should
her hat money also.

When the night ticket agent In the
Cone street. Orange. station Of the
Lackawanna railroad disappeared 1t
occurred to detectives that he might
have known something about a robbery
in the station last Wednesday night.
An investigation Of the missing ticket
agents record showed that his regular
business had been robbing railway sta
ions and that the ticket agent work
was really an avocation. Naturally, 1t
was highly desirable that the missing
agent be confronted with his unsavory
record, but as he had gone away there
was nothing to be done but to defer
such action until he could be found.

ways grooming over his burdens,
and the cost of living, is he who is
sure to wonder what wife did with
that last dollar he gave her.
AS If 1t were any business Of
his!
There is never going to be real
peace in married relations until the
husband feels his wife has as much
right to fixed part of his income,
has right to it unquestiOned and
ungrudged, as has the partner in
any business concern.
Happily, there is growing ten
dency in this direction. The mod,
ern wife is given certain sums for
household purposes and for herself
as regularly as the rent Is paid or
any other obligation.
And the wife being treated as a
trusted partner feels her response
bilities accordingly. Because she
knows the money is hers to dis
burse as she will, she takes pride
in making it bring in the best re-
turns.
You wives who are not yet treat
ed as partners in matrimOny, have
plain talk with your mistaken
husbands. Impress upon them the
shortsightedness Of their financial
dealings, insist upon being given
your share of the family funds.

The outlaw nodded glumly. They

Suddenly he slipped and fell and
in falling brought down his captive
crashing upon the ice, six feet
away, the length of the rope. There

ordnance; and suddenly the ice
parted and Dandy plunged headlong
into the stream, dropping his re-
volver. The outlaw leaped on him !;
then he withheld his hands, and,
clinging to flot, watched him with
wonder.
He had not known his store was
plundered; he did not know it was
the heavy gold dust that weighed
his captor down as though he were
bound with shackles of steel. Dan.
by sank instantly with hardly a
struggle. Once he reappeared; then
the body was swept down beneath
the ice just as the outlaw withdrew
his head from the slack rope that
frightened again, whirled through
the air, and vanished in the dark
waters.

Dandy smiled as he drew out the
sack of gold dust and filled his
pockets with it until he was fairly
weighted. He had laid his plans
well. He glanced up at the cabin
Another minute, and his victim
would be his.
Every one in the mining camp
knew that, somewhere in the hills
across the ford, a hunted man was
prospecting for gold, and that the
girl who came in weekly to ex
change dust for food knew of his
hiding place. But it was no bust
ness of theirs. Live and let live
they said. Besides, the outlaws cap
ture was not worth the attendant
dangers-even if they could find
him.
But Dandy, the gambler, broken
and discredited, had written to the
Canadian mounted police offering to
bring him in for the standing re-
ward of $500. They had accepted
and detailed two officers to wait for
the prisoner at Knoxville. IL miles
away. Nearer they dared not go
for fear of frightening the quarry.
So weekly. when the girl came
into camp, Dandy made love to her
with all the suavity at his com
mand, But loyalty outweighed even
his promises of a life of ease.
