WOMAN HATERs.

Her press agent, or some enterpris-
ing correspondent, lately credited
Mary Garden with saying that she
adored men and hated women. Pos
s1biy Mary said it, being plain
spoken person of few frills or other
wearing apparel, but, whether she did
or not isn't SO important as the fact
that she doubtless felt the. first part
of the statement.
Women cry for their rights, but the
truth remains that, since time began,
the woman haters have numbered
more women than men in their ranks
Women, more than men, have drawn
the double social standard which al
lows the man to come back along the
primrose path on which he wandered,
and sends the woman along the same
road to hell, with never chance to
sidestep or return. That condition
may not be just but it is a fact, and
it is more woman's injustice than
mans, as you know if you ever heard
a pure woman hand both barrels to
the one touched with suspicion or ac-
knoW1edged guilt.
Mary Garden speaks frankly, but
she isn't the first woman to hold the
same view of her sex, If one assumes
to pass judgment according to things
as they are.-Atchison Globe,

Willing to Climb.

A woman walked into the headquar-
quarters of the woman suffrage party
in the Metropolitan tower and asked
for a ticket for the party's next big
political meeting in the Broadway
theater, January 81.
Il am sorry, said Mrs Minnie Rey-
nolds tsbut I have nothing left except
the second gallery. Perhaps you would
not care to climb as high as that
"T don't know that I'd object to
climb to the second gallery" replied
the woman calmly. I'm Annie Peck"
And Mrs Reynolds. rem EN- bering

ord, gave her the ticket.-New York

Przheyalsky Horses.

Within the next few weeks there will
arrive in this country from st. Peters,
burg the first Przhevalsky horses ever
imported. The horses are natives of
the Cobb Desert, south of Mongolia, in
asia, where they were discovered in
1888 by Nikolai Przheva1sky, the Rus
sian explorer, whose name was given
to them. Major Gordon w. Lille, who
is importing two mares and stallion,
hopes to be able to cross them with the
mustangs on his ranch at PaWnee.
Okla.
After PrzhevalsEy's discovery of the
wild horses, which are believed to have
been the last race of horses living in a
wild state with an unbroken wild an
cestry, his story was. doubted for
time,, but when the brothers Grjimailo
cf Russia corroborated him by return
ing to Russia with much information
regarding their habits, etc, an expsdi-
ton to the desert was undertaken in
1904 by the Russian government.
This returned the next year with 40
of the animals, all that remained of As
young ones, which had been captured
alive Except a few that were present
ed to the Duke of Bedford, president
of the. Geological Society Of London.
and which are now on his estate In
Bedfordshjre, all of these still are in
Russia. Several died as a result of
their trip after reaching ST. Peters,
burg! ~
When the wild horses were shown IN
England they aroused much skeptic-
ism. English scientists were inclined
to believe them to be g results of cross
breeding of asses and escaped Mon
golian ponies, f not the offspring of
the ponies themselves, with character
istics altered by their life in the desert.
No attempt was made by the English
to classify the new beasts. Major
Lille. who has succeeded in purchaS-
ing the first of the Russian herd that
has been Gold, now writes of them:
1T has been proved beyond doubt by
the Russians that the horse is truly a
wild horse, a species separate and dis
tinct from the Monaghan pony and
from the ass. This am told, has been
established by hte study of the skele-
tons of those which have died, com
pairing them with the bo1ies of other
kinds of animals.
I'm some ways the little horses, they
are only about II hands nigh when full
grown, resemble the ass common IN
Asia and in China in particular, but by
many characteristics. as, for instance
the tail, they can be seen at once to be
true horses"
Dealing with the habits of the ann1i-
mails, a recent writer says that the
Grjimailo brothers reported that the
horses lived in open, level districts,
keeping quiet by cay. but seeking wa
tering places and the pasture lands by
night, returning to the desert at day
break. They said the animals Travelled
single file, and, as their habitat was
very restricted, the region is crisis
crossed withstracks. like buffalo tracks
on the western plains.
These characteristics of the animals
and the similarity of the ranch lands
of Oklahoma to the Desert of Cobb led
Major Lille, who has more than 1000
acres of fenced land, to believe that
they would thrive in Oklahoma.-New
York Times. &

shows, who has returned from a visit
to Havana, there is no censorship of
moving pictures in Cuba. Mr. Fox
made the journey in the expectation
that he would find in Hsv; ma a good
field for the moving picture enterprise,
but what he saw there convinced him
that the American motion show would
not stand a chance.
