W0MAN'S DUTY IS TO CHEER
Mayor Gsynor Gives Advice to New
York High School Girls
on Graduation,

Mayor Gaynor told a graduating
class of girls that they must never
worry about the future, that every
thing always came out right and that
all they had to do was to prepare
themselves as best they could each
to make some young mans home
happy, says the New York Globe.
The girls argued with the mayor
over the length of time an egg
should be boiled.
"Six minutes" was the unanimous
decision Of the class. The mayor be-
lieved four minutes was right, but
gave in to superior numbers.
The husbands do a lot Of worry
ing, the mayor told them, and it will
be the duty Of the wives to cheer
them up,
"You will ALL" said the mayor,
"have husbands in a few years. The
saying is that, though God disposes,
man proposes. And, this being leap
year the girls have a right to pro-
We if they want to. But l won't
say anything to you about that. I
only mention it at all to remind you
that the education which you re-
ceive here is to enable you to become
good wives and good housekecpers.
You could not be that, you know,
without being reasonably intelligent
and well schooled."

An old subscriber asks: evil you
give me the name of the paper which
you consider the most unreliable pub
LEGATION in the United States?" It is
our firm belief that the Congressiona al
Record is that paper, and our reasons
are based on the fact that this publ
cation, which is supposed to accurate
ly chronicle the proceedings of con-
gress, publishes "speeches" which
were never delivered, and even has the
audacity to intersperse such
"speeches'' with "great applause, -
"continued applause" etc. About
the only purpose the Record answers
is that of assisting delinquent con-
gressmen-making them appear great
in the eyes of their constituents.

Under the. discretionary authority
vested in him by the neutrality pact
with Mexico, President Taft last Fri
day issued an order under which a
million rounds of ammunition and a
thousand Krag-Jorgenson rifles have
been shipped to the American ambas-
sador at the Mexican capital. With
these arms it is proposed to equip
American residents as a protective
measure. It seems to US that this pre-
caution should have been taken
earlier in the game. With the repub-
lie in state of anarchy and the rebel
troops rapidly gaining ground, it is a
question whether the arms will ever
reach their destination.

John Grass, the only real heredi-

make fight for the retention of all
that remains of their once enormous
domain-a few hundred thousand
acres of rough lands upon which live
$500 Indians. Congress has the
power to open these lands whether the
Indians, are willing or not, but the
redmen prize them as a range for
their stock and could not we'll get
along without them. They should be
permitted to retain these lands-the
government should be content with
the territory it has already appropri-
ated.

The amended homestead law, which
permits settlers on publ Is 4 to OBJ
tain patents within three years after
entry, should do much to prevent the
exodus of farmers from the United
States to Canada and have a tendency
to attract immigrants to northern
Minnesota. However, this in itself
will not suffice. More and better
roads are necessary in the unsettled
parts of the state before it can be ex.
pected that immigrants will locate
there. Good roads are absolutely
essential in order that the settler may
be enabled to haul his products to
market.

Nov. 3 Noros and Nindemann heard
the door of their hut in Bulun open

made himself chart on which were

Melville pushed his search to the

spoken Of by Noros and Nindemann
and received from some native hunt

Long. Learning from the papers
where De Long had left the log books,
thermometers and other abandoned ar

marked by a tall flagstaff on the

OF three weeks, made with great suf-
