rhree Kind. of Women.

Mrs Oliver H. P. Belmont. the SO ciety leader and convert to woman suffrage, said in a recent speech:
 "In this country I see three classes of women-frst, the woman who starts out in life with the inculcated idea that some man must support her; sec ond, the woman who finds out she must do everything that man does not want to do, and through force of nee essity does it; third. grand army of self-reliant, self-suppOrting women full filling all civic requirements: women strong in their own independence. ex- pecting no man to bear their burdens, asking for equal rights, knowing their obligations as citizens and determined to meet these obligations.
 We women who demand our suf- frage from men ask them to hono~ the women of the United States From the hour the first white woman landed on our shores woman has stood shoul der to shoulder with man. She has been his equal in toll, in hardship. in devotion. She has been his mother, his wife.
 'I appeal to mans sense of justice and of honor, for both of these charac- teristics are the strong. dominant traits of American men or we would not have the nation we have. And I ask, are these men just to women? To their sons they have given the right of citizenship. They make bondwom- en of their daughters.
 Now we women want to be great. We want our independence. We want to show men how we can stand side by side with them in the open field of life. Then shall the world judge us, and my faith in my own womanhood has taught me to believe in all wom- en-"

One Old New York Inspector Can Smell Diamonds Six Feet Away

One Old New York Inspector Can Smell Diamonds Six Feet Away.
 Timothy J. Donohue, the oldest in- spector of customs in this city. is cred tied by his fellows with possessing a nose which can smell concealed dia- monds and other jewels six feet away, the New York Press says. "Old sim" as he is known. has more seizure. of that sort to his credit on the records Of the customs house than any other inspector employed there. His duty ! Is to wander aimlessly about the steamship piers and ''frisk" incoming passengers. Many persons may not know what "frisk" means in customs house parlance. It is the art of stum- bling or brushing against person so skillfully that the inspector can rub his hands over the pockets and person of the suspect and ascertain whether he has smuggled goods concealed in his clothes and at the same time pre- vent the suspect knowing what he is doing.
 Tn the thirty-fve years or longer that Donohue has been at it on the New York piers he has ''frisked" thou sands of Americans and foreigners after they have landed and are await ing to get their luggage through the hands of the other inspectors. If any incoming passengers standing on transatlantic line pier sees a short, stout, gray-haired. gray-mustached man. quietly dressed. carrying cheap umbrella tied in the middle with a string and stumbling about as if fresh from the backwoods and looking for some one whom he cannot find, that is ''Old Tim Donohue. In his eager quest he bumps against everybody; seizes overcoats by the pockets, rubs his hands up and down passengers as he trips over baggage, acts half soused. never apologies and keeps right on. After the inspectors are through with a passenger whom he in- spects he steps up and invites him to go to the office to be searched. It Is not often his suspicious are misdi- rected

skeeIng Freed Norway from Foes Ready to OverwheIm Her.
 Surely Norwegians should know what's what fin skeeing. Have they not made history with their skee? Would they be the united. free and independ- ent little country they are today had 1t not been for the skee and their army's ability to use them? Would they not be merely succession of Ice free ports maintained for the conven- fence of England, Germany, and. most of all, Russia? They had a pretty hot little war all their own in 1S07-08. and If 1t was short they have only their commander. Prince Christian Angus tus and their infantry on skee to thank, says Charles F. Peters in Out ing.
 All Europe was busy trying to keep Napoleon from slnudging out the lines of the map, and nobody would help Norway, except the already besieged Denmark. She, although willing. was prevented from sending food and am munition by the English war vessels that blockaded the Morse coast. and with Sweden battering them by land and England by sea, poor little Nor way could only sit tight and wait for the approach of the season when Thor should throw the hammer and the frost giants of Jotunheim would fight her battles for her.
 And To, the Swedes allowed them selves to be outwitted Just as their army of the west, which outnumbered the Norsemen ten to one, arrived at the frontier and brought up their heavy field artillery. the White Bear from the land east of the sun and west of the moon sent his feathery flakes and brought confusion and defeat to the invading forces
 Their feldpieces were buried, their men could only founder about In the deepeqing drifts, and. to add to their discontinue. little fiocks of green dots began to appear upon the surrounding mountain crests, to skim down within range, fire carefully aimed rifles. and glide away again before resistance could be attempted by the demoralized Swedish hosts. Thus the entire war consisted sf much starvation. but only three battles, in all of which Norway was completely victorious. and peace was made before the year ended.

house ain't got all the charts this fish in a dry dock when 1t is pumped out than there are in them there har- Dor craft that go out with cargo of landlubbers and come back with all the ballast in their foretops. Them fish get shanghaied in the undertow when the dry dock is opened, and when she is pumped out and all closed they are left marooned on the bottom. This dog, he just goes down and gets 'em.
 Rags Is all right. He's low in the freeboard, bout foot of draught, and three feet in length. and his armor plate he must have swiped by Jumping in glue pot and then rolling in a rag yard. But he's cute. He got a job here on his face two years ago from the marine guard. And that dog can laugh, mister-leastwise he never stopped since he run afoul of govern ment rations. He goes around the yard every time a picket is posted and sees them marines do their duty.
 When he was piped off that the Massy was being floated that dog full steams down to the dock. He shinnies down the steps leading to the bottom and takes an observation between the keel blocks. Then he footed his siren.
 Quick as falling off a yard Rags dove his bow in tween the keel blocks. Up he comes with a four-inch feller in his teeth. He flung it contemptu- ous-like on the dry floor. Then he dove again and flung six-inch feller. Mister, he puts six of them in a row, and then he just turns around, and whacks them dead with his tail. Sure, he's great dog.

ly he exhibited, on the war office grounds near Chatham, 22-ton car. 40 feet long, 13 feet high and 10 feet wide, mounted on single line of four wheels, without other support than those wheels.
 Two gyroscopes were used, weighing three-quarters of a ton each and mak- ing 5000 revolutions a minute In a vacuum A gasoline engine furnished the power The gyroscope wheels are ! 8 feet inches in diameter and are placed in a cab at the front of the car. A speed of only seven miles an hour was attained on trial. It was found that the big car was even more successful than the model. It showed no tendency to leave the track or to tip. Sudden shifting of weights in no way endangered the equilibrium.
 It is expected that this type of car will do away with the dangerous and uncomfortable side thrust which leads to spreading rails and excessive jolt and lar. and limits the safe speed of the ordinary two-rail train to about seventy miles an hour.
 Moreover, the power of this engine can be more economically applied, and it is predicted that a safe speed Of 1oO miles an hour can be attained.
 The gyroscope employed is on the same principle as the toy of that name and of the ordinary spinning top. It lends stability to the supporting car through the fact that a revolving wheel tends to remain in one place.
