SAVE GIRL BABIES
Alaska Natives Either Stran-
uIed or Threw Girl Babies
into the Snow.
BOYS ARE WELL NOuRlSHED

Seattle, March 19.-Except for the
heroic efforts OF Mrs. Thomas Noyes,
of Nome, Alaska, wife Of the principal
owner of the greatest placer project
on Kotzebue sound, the natives of the
far northland today might be continu-
ing the old tribal custom of wedding
out female infants.
Mr.. and Mrs. Noyes and their nine
year-old daughter Bonnie, who was
born far up in the arctic circle. are
in Seattle on their way to California.
when we first went to the north
in 1901" said Mrs. Noyes last night,
conditions were terrible. II a son
was born, all was well, but il a daugh-
ter, the mother might continue the
fight for existence of both herself and
her baby, but eventually she would be
forced to bow to the inevitable and
sacrifice the life of the infant.
StrangIed the Girl.
'The last case heard of was most
heartrending," continued Mrs. Noyes.
THE mother had borne twins. One
was a boy and the other was a girl.
What followed she innocently told me
afterward. The boy was nurtured
carefully but the woman said she
strangled the little girl regularly, for
the poor little unfortunate fought hard
for life and persisted in crying when
thrown out into the snow
With other women Of Nome and the
far north whom Mrs. Noyes enlisted
in the fight as fast as she could make
their acquaintance, she journeyed hun.
dreds Of miles behind dog teams
slept alone in the open and visited the
igloos OF hundred sections. A sharp
look out was kept on the Indians about
the settlements until one after anoth
er girl babies were rescued from exter
mination and the parents who had
cast the infants out were coaxed. ca
joled or by threats forced into compli
ance with the code of civilization.

Industrial Conditions Improve
According to the Statis-
teal Bureau Clerk.
"SPRING FEVER" PATIENTS
MANY MEN GIVE UP THEIR POSI-
TIoNs BECAUSE OF WARM
WEATHER AND THEIR PLACES
ARE IMMEDIATELY FILLED.

Indianapolis, March 19-Industrial
conditions in Indiana are beginning to
brighten up according to Carrie E. Nor
ton, clerk in the state bureau of Stats
tics, who has charge of the employ
ment agency conducted by the state
house.
I'VE hope to place many men from
now on" he said. ''It is getting warm
ar now and that means that here are
many men now working who will soon
give up their positions. There are a
great number of young unmarried men
without home attachments, who work
steadily all winter and then get the
spring fever with the first signs OF
warm weather.
Work? Why should work now-I
can sleep under the trees in this wealth
er. But IL it's cold tomorrow and you
have something open, I'll take job"
That is the talk that one man gave
mo the other week on q
warm sunny day. And my
experience has been that there are
fewer applicants on days when it is
comfortable outside than on the days
when it feels more comfortable to be
under shelter. A rainy day, or one
when 1t SHOWS drives many an appli-
cant to the employment bureau Per-
haps we arrange it for him to try a
position the next day. II it Is Is an
other cold, disagreeable day he will
probably show up, but IL the weather
changes the betting lies the other way.
"Of course this applies only to lin
tied number of men-the kind that one
might put in the tramp class. There
are dozens of hard working laborers
who have been thrown out of a job by
some accident or economical move on
the part OF his employers and wants
work, no matter what tempting condi-
lions invite him to loaf in the sun.
They may have had the same rowing
spirit in younger days, but the thought
of their families holds them to the
grind and the other men are ready to
shirk.
mo matter what job you offer some
men they find objection to 1t. 1t is
strange, but true, nevertheless. that
some 'down-and-outers' are more par
ticular in picking jobs than John D.
Rockefeller would be. With the in.
crease of work that usually takes place
in the automobile and other factories
about here, we should soon have work
for every man who honestly desires it. .

Even Muskrats are Affect
ed by the High Cost of
Living Now.
TRAPPERs QUIT BUSINESS
INCREASE IN PRICES WIPiNc FUR
BEARING ANIMALS OUT OF Ex-
ISTENcE AND PElTS HAVE
DOUBLED IN VALUE.

Columbus. Ind, March 19.-If the fur
bearing animals in Southern Indiana
could talk they would doubtless be
glad to give the press a statement
about the high cost of living. The in
crease in prices is having its effect
with them because it is wiping them
out of existence. Even the meek and
lowly muskrat, passed by in former
years, is now eagerly sought by the
trappers. and the price Of its pelt has
doubled since last season.
Local fur dealers are making their
last shipments Of the winter. The
warm weather reduces the value OF a
fur bearing animals coat and causes
the trappers to put away their traps
until another winter comes. When
questioned, local dealers declared that
they had bought more pelts this season
than last, in spite OF the fact that the
number OF fur bearing animals de-
creases from year to year.
Last winter the pelt of a musk rat
brought from 10 to Is cents. when sold
to a local dealer, but this winter pelts
Of the same quality are bringing the
trappers from 50 to s. cents. Minks
are disappearing so fast that furriers
are using musk rat skins for much OF
the so-called mink. The fact that the
price of pelts has doubled caused more
trappers than ever to work during the
winter. and musk rats have been Civ.
ing up their lives pretty frequently In
this section of the state. The law
which provides that all food products
shall be labeled, SO that purchasers
may know the ingredients, does not
apply to wearing apparel. and many
women wear skunk, musk rat and rae
coon pelts. when they fondly believe
they are wearing something q great
deal more aristOcratic.

THE EYE UF AN ARTIST.
A Case Where Il Was More Reliable
Than q Sailors Optic.

A Case Where lt Was More Reliable
Than . Sailors Optic.
Mr.. N. Chevalier. the well known
artist who accompanied the late Duke
Of Edinburgh ON many of his travels,
was once going from Dunedin to Lyt-
telton, New Zealand. by steamer. Anx-
ious to catch the earliest glimpse Of
the coast, he went on deck at dawn
and was alarmed to see that the YES
sci was heading straight on to the
land. Calling the officers attention to
the fact, he was told that it was only
a fog bank. Tho artist maintained his
point, but the second officer looked
and confirmed his mate.
The artist then said, "Well, gentle
men, ! win back my artists eye
against your sailors eye. and say
that what you mistake for fog bank
is q low range Of hills. and there is 4
range Of mountains appearing above
them"
But he was only laughed at until the
captain, coming on deck. found In
the growing light that the artist was
right and the seamen wrong. The
vessel was out of its course, and there
was only just time to avert disaster.
The helmsman was dismissed in dis
grace and the course given to a new
steersman, but the vessels head still
pointed landward- compass was
all wrong.
The cause was discovered later. A
commercial traveller had brought q box
Of magnets on board and deposited
them in q stern cabin, causing what
might have been q fatal detection of
the compass.
To return to the question Of inter-
probation, the artist was dealing with
the appearances which his eye was
trained to see and his mind to inter
pref. A speck on the horizon might
have remained mere speck to him
long after the sailors had interpreted
the speck into vessel OF definite rig.
There can be little doubt that the
trained eye is accompanied by q sort
OF mental seeing-an instinct outrun-
ming optics.

Georgetown began a week Of hard
preparation for the Virginia game next
Saturday on the West End gridiron in a
contest which will decide the champion
ship of the South. Yesterday was the
first time this year that Coach Nielsen
has had his charges out on Sunday

signal drill by the varsity, during which
two sets OF ends were used and the back
field shifted several times. The whole
varsity squad. consisting of two elevens,
followed the plays up closely, and an
earnestness was shown by all the men,
which was indeed gratifying and very
much contrary TO the listless way the
practices were being attended last week.

of the game, and there is a possibility
that he will not be able TO play next Sat

that interest in this years battle is
