Women in Finland

The Firms are. says the Bystander.
politically, one of the most advanced
nations in Europe. Women take nearly
the same position as men in everything.
They are successful as members of
parliament. They are all brought up
to some business or profession, and
till they are married there is no pro-
fessional distinction between them. On
marriage 1t is the custom of the country
for the women to give up their profess
sion or business and devote themselves
to their households, the Firms consider
ing the maintenance of an efficiently
kept home as quite enough work for a
woman without expecting anything
more of her. Besides this, il is thought
unfair for a woman on marriage not
to retire in favor of the unmarried.

FOUNDATION" STAMP TO
AID FLOOD SUFFERERS
Proposal of French Government
to Swell Charity Fund

A proposal has been made to augment
the fund for the sufferers in the Paris
floods by the issue of an -.fnundation
stamp" says the London Globe. 1t is
suggested that the stamp shall bear
design emblematic of the disaster,
and that it shall be sold for 25 CEN
times. The actual value of the stamp
for franking purposes will be 10 cen
times, so the relief fund would benefit
to the extent of 15 centimes for each
stamp sold. The sale to collectors
alone would. it Is computed, produce a
goodly sum for the distressed and many
philanthropic persons would not object
to overpay the postage of letter when
the relief fund would benefit.

Human Dice Boxes

Excessive gaming has always been
prohibited by law. and in the time of
Henry VII archery was the only game
of any kind that was not unlawful The
gaming laws are, of course, far stricter
now than they were in the early years
of the last century, but, says IT. P's
Weekly, even at that time police raids
on gambling houses were frequent
enough. and it is said that at one Of
two of the west end establishments per-
sons were retained whose sole duty
lay in being able TO swallow the dice
in case of raid by the authorities
1t is curious to learn that about the end
of the eighteenth century the bucks of
the day were all smitten by an eXtraor-
binary mania for making extravagant
and eccentric bets.

il was upon such occasions that Comis-
key was figuring on making up his
training expenses.
On top of his other troubles Comiskey
arrived in Los Angeles IN time to see
his great little catcher, Billy Sullivan,
injure himself so badly that he may be
compelled to remain out of the game
for the balance of the season. Zeider,
Owen, Walsh and several of the others
were also taken sick, and the training
trip was practically Of no value TO them.
In the past Comiskey always made
money out of his spring training jaunts
TO the Golden state, but this is one time
where he dropped a hunk of it. How
ever. he would never pay any attention
TO such trifie had he been able to do

BEAN SANDWICHES POPULAR
WITH EXPOSITION CROWDS
Booth Of Williams Bros. Co. Well
Patronized and Attendants Are
Generous With Samples.

One OF the most popular exhibits at
the Detroit Industrial Exposition Is
that of the Williams Bros. Co., on the
second floor OF the Wayne pavilion.
Pickles. pork and beans and kindred
canned goods in great variety line the
shelves and counters and those In
charge of the booth are exceedingly
generous with their samples.
viii you try a bean sandwich Is
the cherry invitation extended TO the
passerby, and II is invariably accept
ed without any unnecessary formality,
for there Is no restaurant In the ex.
position. Many. after sampling the
products, have tried TO buy a can Of
beans or a bottle of pickles to take
home, but nothing is sold In the booth.
The price Is quite as attractive as the
sample. The pork and beans are put
up in five and 10-cent cans. and In this
way one can purchase a whole meal
for a nickel Since the exposition
opened. several barrels of pickles and
case after case Of beans have been
given away.
The williams Bros. Co. uses only
hand-picked beans for canning pur-
poses. II receives Its supply from 3S
stations, scattered throughout the
states, a large portion coming from
Michigan. the greatest bean state In
the union. Thanks to the Williams
Bros. Co., the state also leads In
pickles.
AS one result OF the exhibit many
retailers who have not handled these
goods heretofore are now putting
them in.

WOMAN TERRIBLY

Charged With Brutal Attack-She
May Die From Injuries.

MT CLEMENS, Mich, June 81
Emil Rohl Is under arrest charged with
making a murderous attack on his
wife n her home, No. Park Row,
early this morning. The couple had
been divorced for some, time and Roal
came to Mt. Clemens from New York
a month ago. Before he returned uhe
chief of police received a letter from
him inquiring about his daughter, who
had been awarded TO the custody OF
the mother when she secured a d.

Shortly after 3 o'clock this morning
Mrs. Signe Rohl was aroused from
sound slumber by some one springing
on her, but before she could utter
cry the murderous intruder had
clutched her throat with one hand and
kneeling on her PROSTATE form COM
menced pounding her on the head with
a heavy instrument.
Evidently believing the woman was
dead, the intruder fastened to make
his escape from the house, and as he
did so was met by the little daughter
of Mrs. Rohl, Lillian, aged II, who

was awakened by the noise in her
mothers room. The house was in
complete darkness.
Turning on the light in her mothers
room a terrible sight met her gaze.
The bedclothing was saturated with
blood and her mothers head was
scarcely recognizable from blood that
streamed from a terrible wound In
her head. DR.. II. F. Taylor was sum
moned and he at once notified the
police and started for the house. When
the police entered they found Mrs.
Rohl In a semtconscious condition.
On the floor lay a cheap shoemaker's
hammer smeared with blood.
DR.. Taylor at once ordered Mrs.
Roll removed to st. Joseph's hospital

was found her skull had, been crushed
by the blows from the hammer One

the chances are she cannot recover.

SEE RUPTURE BETWEEN
TAFT AND ROOSEVELT
Attempt by Former President to Sway
Gov. Hughes Looks Significant
to Wise Ones.

WASHINGTON. June 2z.-Politi
clans who are credited with rejecting
me administration attitude, today
look upon the course OF Col. Roosevelt
In attempting to dissuade Gov. Hughes
from accepting the supreme court
judgeship as the first indication OF a
rupture between Roosevelt and Taft
II is pointed out that both Pinchot and
Garfield. fresh from Oyster Bay,
have given ntterance TO statements
impossible OF Interpretation other
than opposition to the administration.
The suggestion that Hughes would
become a candidate for president In
1912 Is one OF the most unpleasant
phases of the proposal, from the Taft
administration point of view.
Those close to the president say
Taft selected Hughes for the supreme
bench with the definite idea that he
would sit during the arguments OF the
trust cases in October and they de-
clare IL would greatly embarrass Taft
If Hughes should refuse to serve, con-
gress not being In session and the
selection OF another justice being out
OF the question until next December.
Perhaps the predicted conference be-
tween the president. Roosevelt and
possibly Hughes may solve the situa-
ton.
Taft men say that only the very
strongest proof of the danger OF the
defeat to the Republican party In New
York could lead Taft to lend his sup
port to Hughes as candidate for the
nomination for governor.
At the White House today Il was
stated that there had been no meeting
arranged so far between President
Taft and Col. Roosevelt
