JACK FROST NO LONGER TERROR

Frosty nights Of late have given the
Department of Agriculture an oppor-
tunity to test in the vicinity Of Aiexan.
dria the wonderful nrcharl-heating sys-
tenn now in use throughout the fruit
growing regions Of the west.
At the Arlington experiment farm
for several nights past, a Waterman has
lowered close TO a thermometer with
his lantern. Four acres OF trees bear
ing tender peach buds have been the
objects Of his solicitation.
As the mercury sinks lower and lower
in the chilly hours proceeding daylight,
he stands ready to summon Snpt.
Butterield and the farm force. On two
occasions recently the hands have
turned out in response to the watch
mans alarm. and have rushed through
the orchard with torches lighting up
the "smudge pots" which have been
illed with kerosene and placed among
the trees, 100 to the acre. As Jack
Frost made his way into the vitals Of
the tender peach buds, the flaming pots
have produced the warmth of atmos-
phere necessary to drive him back.

Perils That Come With Managing

ment when be performed with his
twenty-seVen lions. He said that be
thought it was when be first entered
the arena. The moment before. when
be had to drive this great herd Of lions
in, was almost as bad, but the first
few minutes when the crowd Of lions
entered were terribly uncertain and
undoubtedly the most dangerous.
In the first place, with such q crowd
there was the danger Of being pushed
or knocked down. Then there was the
danger Of tripping among them or OF
stepping on their tails, for many OF
them would lie down and roll over and
over as preliminary TO the perform
ance, and If he were not struck by
their feet be was just as likely to be
struck across the face or body with
their strong. ropelike tails
In getting them into their places
there was also considerable danger.
for In such q crowd it Is difficult t.
treat each animal according TO its pc
culiar idiosyncrasies. ana dick Of the
whip intended for one lion who would
be fairly Indifferent to 1t Is likely 10

revolt the whole number will always

pected that there would be an army of patrons many of whom would lapse in payments. and lose what they had paid.
 Apart from the merits of the busi- ness as set forth above. the auditor has great many reasons for believ- ing that the Jackson Loan and Trust company of Jackson, Miss, which had branch office here and which was placed in the hands of a receiver and ostensibly went out of business here about the first of the year, or else it IS new institution conducted by some of the same men, employing practically the same methods, and de- signed to find its patrons among the clients of the supposedly defunct con corn. This is denied to the auditor by Berry and Morson but their ef- fleets show the plan of work to be the same and it strangely happens that Berry and MorsOn were both asso- ciated with the Jackson, Mississippi concern, together with a man named J. l.. Wyatt. It is claimed by Nor son that Wyatt was away frop here for time. returned again and left for Utah Friday night and that he had in some way not explained pos sessed himself of a large part of the collections of the Jackson company of Phoenix since the first of January. though as explained. that does not appear to be a very large sum of money,
 Also it is found that the Jackson Loan and Trust company of Phoenix was incorporated in March of last year but did not begin doing business until about the first of this year when the Jackson cc~spany of Mssis- sippi went into the hands of a re- ceiver.

CHiNA'S WOMEN.
What Christianity Is Doing For the
 Women Of the Far East,

Knowing how little the modern wo-
 mans movement in the west owes to
 church men, one is surprised to see
 how potent is Christianity for the up
 life Of the women of the far east
 But in China the present need of wo-
 man is not industrial and social op-
 portunity so much as improvement in
 her lot as daughter and wife. Thanks
 to the exalted place of of the parent. the position of the mother. with refer ence to her children or her daughters in-law, leaves little to be desired. writes Professor Edward Ellsworth Ross in the March Century
 The missionaries have not proclaim ed the rights of women" or insisted upon the full equality of the sexes But the women converts gain from the reading of the New Testament ideas of their dignity, and come to feel that they have rights which ought to be respected. It gives them courage to become Bible women. teachers and physicians.
 From the same source the man learns to look upon his wife in a new light and to feel that he owes her love and respect. He substitutes per suasion for coercion. and comedies her full authority in certain matters, such as the management of the household or the direction of the servants. One man told how formerly he had looked upon his wife as a mere toy. but since conversion he had come to love her and consult her, and. to his surprise. he had found that often her judgment l was sounder than his He blushed as he confessed that he loved" his wife. | for the Chinese never talk about such feelings. It is a fact that Christians have the name of making good hus- 1 bands, and are preferred as sons-in- laws even by unbeiieving parents
