men wrangled in congress over the
tariff and other things, but not over
the bills for the protection of women

they had had to get protection for
young girls. Also women were given
no protection against the drink evil

endure when their husbands drank up
or gambled away his months wages.
Further the wages of women were too
low for their support, but there was

ASKS u. S. COURT
TO FREE JOHNSON
Pugihst's Attorney Appears at Wash
ington-Decision Probably on
Monday.

Washington, Nov l2.--Jack Johnson's
fight to resist a sojourn in Jail pending
his trial on charges of violating the
white slave law reached the United
States supreme court yesterday.
His attorney, benjamin G. Baehraeh
appeared TO move Johnson's admission
to bail. Among the causes assigned by
3achrach for his motion were; That
the federal court of Illinois had fixed
the bail at an excessive amount; the
courts refusal to accept certificate of
deposit, cash, real estate, sureties OF
guarantees by surety company for
that sum, and the contention that the
Mann white slave net was unconstitu-
tional.
"The appellant" said Bachrach, sis a
colored man and for several weeks the
newspapers in Chicago have been pub
fishing false and untrue reports concern.
ing him, whereby he has become preju-
diced in the eyes of the public to such
an extent that he is unable to induce
real estate owners to become surety for
him upon his bond, unless he is indemni-
fed
Acting for the government, Solicitor
General Bullitt opposed Bachrach's mo
ton and was given three days to file a
brief against admitting to bail, The
court will render decision in the case
probably next Monday.

Eighteenth CENTURY LIFE.
A Bath Was Matter of Some Moment
In Those Days.

These brief extracts from the letters
of Elizabeth Montagu. the queen of
the blnestockings." throws a curious
light on eighteenth century life in Eng.
land She was suffering from a swell
ed lip. Promptly the great DIR. Mead
prescribed a blister to her back. She
writes:
Il am better than | was; but. my
mouth not being yet perfectly reduced,
| have got fresh blister upon my
back Well may 1t bend with such a
weight of caiamities have sent for
my bathing cloathes and Oh Sunday
night shall take souze. think 1t a
pleasant remedy"
Apparently in lT4i lady could not
take a bath even on Sunday night and
in the privacy of her chamber without
her bathing cloathes"
Mrs, Montagu writes again: My lip
is not entirely reduced, though have
been blistered twice. once blooded and
have five times taken physic. have
lived upon chicken and white meats
and drunk nothing but water. | have
suffered great disappointment about
the warm bath which am advised to

THE FRlENDLESS SPIDER.
He's a Pretty Good Insect In Spite Of
His Looks and His Webs.

Aside from snakes. there Is probably
no living thing which can look to man
kind for friendship with so little hope
as the spider. yet when the spider is
fairly brought to trial 1t Is rather hard
to prove anything against him except
his appearance and few cobwebs.
Apart from furnishing an example
of industry and patience from which
we might well profit, the spider feeds
exclusively upon freshly killed insects,
all Of them being of the kind denounc-
ed by sanitary authorities. the house
fly being its favorite quarry.
As the actual destruction of few
hundred housefiies means that several
hundred thousand that would other
wise have spent gay lives in transmit
ting typhoid and other diseases will
not come into existence and as almost
any spider should be able to account
for as many as 800 In the course Of a
summer. to say nothing of stray mos.

him something more than fap With
