b. G. Buxton, Vermont farmer,
gives the following reasons for con-
sidcring Holsteins the best breed of
dairy cattle: First. the Holsteins
hold all records for production of
milk and butter: second. they stand
the cold weather better than most
OF the breeds: third, they are large
and strong and seem to throw off
disease and keep healthier than
most breeds. Some people will
claim that the milk is too poor i'm
butter fat, and 1t is a fact that the
average OF the breed is only $40 per
cent. However. they are being bred
up to a greater per cent OF fat. The
Holstein bull pictured was grand
champion at the Iowa state fair
last year.

Gave Life For 75 Cents.

As she was being whirled in a
taxicab toward police headquarters
at Atlantic City, last Tuesday, fol-
lowing her refusal to pay a fare of
rs cents, Jennie Cain, proprietress of
a resort on North Chalfont avenue,
leaped from the machine on North
Carolina avenue and was killed al
most instantly. The woman landed
on her head in her flying leap and
her skull was crushed. Mortified
spectators assisted in lifting her into
the car, which was hurried to the
City hospital, but she died on the
way.
With Elizabeth Whittier. a color
ed companion, the Cain woman had
made a round of cafes during the
morning and a taxicab was summon
ed at noon. Ben S~ubreusky was the
driver, and as he failed to get his
fare he drove TO police headquarters.
The Game woman assured the police
that she would pay the bill If driven
to the taxicab station, on North Car
DINA avenue. and the chauffeur
agreed to this arrangement.
When the station wal reached the
woman again refused to pay and
Subrensky, refusing to permit the
two negresses to leave the car, start
ed again for police headquarters.

Policewomen Are Worthy.

POIieeN0men Are worthy.
The p~olicewoman has proven her
worth in Oakland, and she has come
to stay. That is what Chief of Po-
lice Petersen of Oakland told Chief
Sebastian of Los Angeles, and the
latter agreed with him. Oakland
was one of the first cities on the Pa
cific coast to appoint women on its
regular police force.
The two chiefs got together re-
Gently for a conference, and discus
sed the "~coppettes'. Here were a
few of the things they agreed that
the policewoman does that a mere
man couldn't do:
Training and instinct enables her
to pick from the crowd the girl
whose steps are on the downward
path, and enable her to lead that
girl into right ways without invok-
ing the lave
She rescues girls from evil asso.
eiates. breaks up joy rides where
they include immature and unso-
phisticated girls. stands between the
reckless girls and a hayward life,
bringing back to her parents many a
wanderer and teaches the deceived
and foolish girl many wholesome
truths.
She searches the city for the dis
couraged, the deluded and the in.
c~orrigible, and gives each the proper
treatment and advice.
She takes from dance halls the
girls who have no business to be
there. and makes her go home.
She emphasizes to those she helps
the ultimate folly of the so-calied
good time in cafes and dance
Women police" said the Oakland
chief, ARE a necessity in our present
social conditions. Conditions in
Oakland are far better since we
have had them on the force"

Map of Postage stamps.

John Fortune, a mail carrier of
Atchison, Kansas, has completed a
map of the United States from
postage stamps, By using stamps
of various colors he separated the
original 10 colonies, also outlining
every state. The large rivers are
shown with orange-colored stamps.
In the center of the map Is a great
American eagle with wings spread,
the olive branch and bundle of
arrows clutched in its talons. Above
the eagle is worked out the phrase,
l"E pluribus unum." The Great
Lakes are shown and the Canadian
border is designated with Canadian
stamps.
The map is %bordered with pictures
Of all the presidents. the likeness be-
ing secured from stamps OF various
design. In the centre of the state of
Virginia is a copy of the Declaration
of Independendence, bordered with
stamps of Washington design.
The stamps are pasted upon a
canvas. 5x9 feet. and each one of
them has peer trimmed, requiring
infinite patience and work. The ex-
act number of stamps used In MAX
ing the map is known only to Mr..
Fortune, as it is his intention TO
lease it to large stores TO be used as
a basis for guessing contests.

This is a splendid thing for the

taking advantage of this unusual OPP
portunity. In the stead of these two
vessels the navy will obtain a super
dreadnought of the most advanced
type, such as the Pennsylvania. ard
not unequal to four vessels of the
type of the Mississippi or Idaho.
This ship will carry a main bat
terry of twelve f~ourteen-inch guns,
as against the eight twelve-inch at
tanned by the Mississippi and Idaho
combined. She will have a speed of
2O.5 knots, as compared with the
maximum of III knots attained by
the Mississippi and Idaho. Through
the concentration of her big guns in
tour turrets and use of oil for fuel
she will require a crew of about 500
men, whereas each of the Odd ships
required a crew of 700 men
"Battleship No. 80 has not vet

Appropriation bill authorizes tie
construction of two new b%attleships

Workmen who came from the east
to work on the farms quit last Tues
day, a most critical time in the
harvesting of the wheat crops. The
easterners were unable to stand the
intense heat. The farmers immedi-
ately rode to town and appealed for
help.
The response was immediate. The
county officials closed the court
house. the merchants turned their
stores over to women clerks, and
with practically every man in town,
started for the farms. Loss of the
harvest would paralyze the towns

Pelt Pastor With Eggs.

Rev. W. T. Elsey. a handsome
young bachelor minister, pastor of
one of the leading churches at Graf
ton. West Virginia, was last Tues
day bombarded with aged eggs"
by several of the city's leading
young SWANS who objected strongly
to the young cleric monopolizing
the attentions of all the pretty and
eligible young women in the city.
For some time Rev. Elsey has
been lionized by the bells of the
town and the young g~allants decided
to check the hero worship before it
had gone too far. Several laid in
wait for the minister as he came
from the home of a prominent young
woman last Tuesday night. Before
he had gone far, he was pelted with
eggs until he was a sight. Calling
on the police for protection, he
finally made his escape.
Three of the young men, William
Rainbridge, Percy Dadisman and
Caryl Hamilton were arrested and
held to await the action of the grand
jury. Other arrests are expected.

No i. W. VS. in Butte Miners Union
Despite the threats of President
Charles Meyer of the Western Fed
GRAFTON of Miners that his organiza-
ton would take steps to assert it's
jurisdiction in the Butte district II
the seceders failed to return to the
federation fold after the federation
terms of arbitration had been offered
them, the situation took on a clear
er aspect. This is in consequence of
the union organizations throughout
the city having conveyed the word
OF their support of a new and indie
pendent union of miners and the
announcement of President Nc
Donald of the seceders that no in
dustrial workers of the world would
be tolerated in the new organization.
The other union bodies of Butte
are rendering their support to the
seceders, 1t is said, because the recent
adverse vote taken by the miners
ON the card system is interpreted
to show that from SO to 81 per cent
of the Western Federation %organiza-

ception of two of the largest com
