At place called Anghln. about for
" miles south of Bangkok, q China
man and his wife cultivated a small
sugar cane plantation. Tho man had
been greatly annoyed by having his
cane eaten by his neighhors' buffalo
calves. Coming homo one evening jusi
at dark. he saw what he thought was
one OF the marauders at work on the
cane. Stealing silently up behind II
he struck Il a mighty blow with p
heavy club. The animal dropped with
out q sound. The Chinaman told his
wife what he had done and added.
''That calf will steal no more Of my
cane" In the morning he found tha,
the calf was a full grown tiger. He
had killed II by breaking its neck. just
az the woman of Nam had done. And
John was 10 much impressed with his

WOMEN IN PORTUGAL.
They Do All the Hard Work While
Lazy Men Loll and Smoks.

LuAI fflUU NeiN NHa 0ifeNnt
The lot Of women ia Portugal is not
an enviable one. according to Mr.. Au-
brey F. Q. Bell. who IN his book. in
Portugal" thus describes the labor
that falls 20 their share.
Portuguese men are so notoriously
indoent that it is no exaggeration to
say that two-thirds Of the work OF Por-
tugal is done by women. 10 them the
Portuguese word mourejar Is really ap-
plicable. since. in fact. they work like
Moors or slaves. They work IN the
fields and appear to bear the hrunt OF
the labor
"In one field the woman in the heat
Of the day draws up bucket after buck.
ct OF water while the man sits perched
In a shady olive tree. In the neiehbor.
ing field a man watches six women at
work among the maize In a third
a group OF women stand working In
the summer sun while n group OF men
sit At the same work under a vine trel-
lis.
Everywhere are to be seen women
with huge loads Of immense weight
while the men accompany them empty
handed. The man lies in his OK cart
and must have a cigarro and cope OF
wine or brandy after his hard days
work. or he sits at his counter and bids
his wife go out into the cruel sunshine
TO fetch a heavy bitten OF water OF
other provisions. Women work in the
quarries. Women row heavy barges
Wherever there Is hard work women
are to be found"

As diabolical a specimen OF murder
Gus ingenuity as ever was discovered
by the polio was found one day In the
possession OF a Chinaman who had
been working in a laundry in New or
leans and who was believed TO have
intended using it upon his employer
It was a tiny stiletto. with a handle
about as thick as a carpenters pencil
and a blade four inches long Of glass
pointed as keenly as a needle. A tiny
groove had been fled around the blad,
close TO the hilt Suppose It was driv
en- into a mans body. IL would be Ger
tain TO hresk Of at the groove aud
leave three inches Of glass deep in his
flesh. What Is more. the punctur,
would be so tiny that II would prob
ably close at once and show no mark
not even a single drop Of blood.

by the village not becoming incorpor-

Arthur Andrews asked II the in-
crease IN taxes was not on tho Inn
provements but the trustee stated no
did not know. Brown moved that an
itemized list of the leaseholders to-
gether with their assessments be
prepared. Mr.. Shandrew stated that
the assessors had prepared a list

as plots but nothing was In tho list

Browns motion was voted down.
The question Of reading the deed
Of trust on which the COLONY is
founded was then considered and Ar
thur Andrews suggested that the
original one and not the amendment
should be read ID. Haines Albright
a Philadelphia lawyer, objected say
ing other constitutions and docu-
rnents were as important as II, refer
ring 10 the United States Constitution
and international Law. This caused
considerable discussion and Brown
declared II Ike light on all subjects,
7 ike things done in the open"
g. Frank Stephens explained the
founding OF the colony on the deed
Of trust which was drawn upon the
Single Tax theory by a lawyer who
did not understand the doctrine and
thought the people fools, who would
only get out OF the colony by the
unloading Of the mortgage on IT, He
further stated that in order to make
II more democratic, Il was decided to
amend the deed OF trust. which was
done. This paper was drawn up by
a Mr.. Budd. Of Philadelphia, and Il
abbrogated the original deed.
One resident stated that as the
question would have to be settled in
the courts, he thought II best TO settle
K IN Arden. Lawyers, he contended
had told him the deed was illegal
This caused Brown 10 say that It wa,
worng 70 trust lawyers. One Youl,
say il Illegal and two would say 4
was legal.
II was then put 10 a vote as 4
whether the original deed Of trus
Should be read and the motion wa
laid on the table.
The question of suffrage was the
taken up, and after addresses on tn
right Of minors to vote at the tow

MURKY GREEN PETROLEUM.
Processes by Which II Is Converted
Into Refined Oil.

into hcNnoo Olis
In It's original state petroleum is Of
murky green color II is distilled in
pans with great furnaces blazing be-
meath them. and as the vapors arise
from the boiling liquid they are con
veyed into pipes surrounded by cold
water in which they are condensed.
The first vapors condense into naph-
tina and those produced by further
heating give the burning OIL A very
small percentage Of the crude oil put
into the pans or stills remains In the
form Of tar. which by another process
is converted into paraffin and coke.
After distillahon the refined oil is no
longer green, but is as transparent as
spring water and beautifully hnged
with puppies and blues. IL is not yet
ready for use, however. since 1t must
be 'washed" The fluid is emptied into
a large circular tank in which 1t is
treated with acids. these being poured
in and mixed with It by means of pow
erful pressure from beneath.
When It has been well shaken it Is
allowed to SETTLE and the acids then
separate from It and sink to the bot
tom OF the tank, taking with them
some OF the tar that remained in the
oil.
The acids are then removed and the
oil is washed with salt water. Finally
II is bleached, and It is then ready for
the market-Harper's Weekly.

would like to have hard campaigner

Judge Ben B. Lindesy who turned
down the overtures TO make him Unit

he would remain in the Democracy,
and John NJ. Parked, Of New Orleans.
In addition there are several compro-
mise candidates who have rods up and
are hoping that the lightning will
strike.
The real business today was the
Roosevelt speech, although nearly all
of the state delegations held caucuses
prior to proceeding to the convention
hall. Most Of them paraded to the
hall headed by band and the veteran
drum corps and big delegation of
sufiragettes.
Colonel Roosevelt spent the morn
ing quietly in his rooms, with Mrs.
Roosevelt. They received a number
of callers, among whom were a large
number Of suffragists, including Jane
Adams, Of Hull House
Negroes Seek Roosevelt.
Negro PrOgrsesives here from Ar
kansas met today and decided to call
on Roosevelt and his political mana
gers and ask for final ruling on the
new party's stand on the negro ques-
ton. Up TO the time the Colonel left
for the Coliseum they did not have
a chance to make their plea
The convention hall was as slow in
filling up to-day as on yesterday. The
majority of the ticket holders pre-
/ ferred to wander about the crowds
in the corridors Of the Congress hotel
and listen to the discussion until the
set time.

contention by william Allen White

Three planks dealing with the negro
question were under consideration
It was generally agreed that the plat

would be along the lines laid down
by Roosevelt in his recent letter deal

The Ohio delegates. in caucus de-
cided that the question of complete
state ticket was "up to the Progress

a state convention should be called as
soon as possible and the matter de-

Overwhelmingly In favor Of going

Talk Of BrocksOn for Governor
Democrats active in politics in Kent
county are urging the nomination OF
Franklin Brockson. OF Kenton hun
dred, for Representative IN Congress.
Mr.. Brockson was a Representative
In the Legislature OF 1909. He also
Is a prominent member of the New
Castle county bar, although for many
years he has lived in Clayton.
II rs asserted by Kent Democrats
that that county has not been repre-
sented in the national House OF Rep
fcsontatives since John p. Penning-
ton was Congressman many years
ago. II Is admitted that since then
Alexander NJ. Daily was a nominee
but he failed Of election. Those who
are urging the nomination Of Mr..
Brockson say It Is clearly Kent
county's turn TO have the Congress
sional nominee this time.
So far as can be ascertaincd, Mr..
Brockson Is not an avowed and active
candidate for the nomination. II Is
known, however, that political friends
have gone 10 him and urged him 70
stand for the pace.
