the Bijou theater. Both Of the prln-
cipals as well as all of the actors in
the opening scenes of the story wear
masks. Their faces are completely
hidden. Still the spectators, 1t is said,
realize that in the apparently gay
throng there Is q woman whose soul is
being consumed in the fires Of jealousy.
The reason for this jealousy on the
part of the wife Is evident, in that the
husband, who Is also masked, Is par
ticularly attentive to other women.

depended upon the carriage of her

SOME IMPORTED WORDS.
Their Use Here and Their Meanings In
 Their Native Land.

You are sO familiar wi.l those three imported words. chauffeur. tonneau and limousine. that 1t would never oc- cur to you to ask whether they really apply to the objects which they have been made to describe.
 You know that q chauffeur Is the man who is hired to drive a motOrcar The mere driving of the car is not the thing which gives the name its signifi. canoe. for 1t does not apply to the owner of the car when he drives. ln file manner you know that the ton. neuu is the part of the machine which is behind the drivers seat and accom-. modates three or five persons. When the posseSsOr of an automobile Is sufh cicntly opulent he has limousine body for winter use. and probably 1t is cleo. tric heated and has bunch of fresh flowers in the wall vase every morn ing. To these three vocables. with their smell of greenbacks and their rattle of silks. we might add another. even more suggestive of the expendi ture of money. the word hangar which was dragged into the language when the gilded youth wearicd of sixty horsepower speed and took to the mir.
 Would you be shocked to learn that a hangar. in rural France. where aero planes are almost unknown, is nothing but sled for the farm cart? And what of the chauffeur? The high school girl was mortified to find. by consulting her dictionary. that he was either q fireman or braggart. Almost as dis. concerting was the revelation that a 'tonneau' was nothing but vat or tub. But the cruelest blow of all fell when the limousine was shown up as rough goatslin. worn by peasants near Limoges.-St Louis Globe-DemOcrat

wa its statehood for Alaska, because it is popular with some of the unedu- cated masses, who do not realize that Alaska has absolutely no chance at the present time of receiving State hood as a present from our paternal Government.
 On the other hand Alaska could re- ceive full Territorial form of gov ernment, would our Delegate aEan- don his wild political scheme, and work for the interest of the vast country he represents. Any man as keen as our Delegate must have fore seen long ago. that he is fighting the administration ideas of what is 5est for Alaska. Secretary Lane has re- peatedly given the administration g views upon the question of Alaska's future.
 Instead of indulging in useless effort to bring about what can never happen, our people should unite in demanding that our representative use every effort to secure Territorial rights for his constituents.
 A few years from now, after we have emerged from our present chaot- ic political condition, Alaska can make winning fight for Statehood.
 Just what immediate benefits can accrue to us from Statehood rights over Territorial rights is hard to see at the present time. Full Territorial rights would gain for us all that we are asking, and we would still have the advice and financial assistance of the Governmental experts. To be- come a State we must first become a Territory, and that we have fever been only in name.

The Motive That Is Said to Have 'n-

 John P. Holland. the inventor of the modern submarine. was an ardent ad vocate of freedom for Ireland. says 0 writer in Worlds Work. With this end in view. he allied himself with the Fenian movement in America and de- signed for 1t type of vessel with which he hoped to destroy Englands fleet. The I'enians financed the scheme and Holland designed boat which for several months entertained the people on the waters around New York.
 The Fenians had done everything they could to keep the thing Q secret though rumors of the usual British spies" were numerous. Occasionally an excursion boat or tug would be amazed to see a peculiar cOntrivance suddenly stick its head out of the wa ters.. There were stories that 1t was q sea serpent, or whale. or Q derelict. When the coming tower opened, how. ever. and Hollands good natured Irish face suddenly peered out on the outside world the mystery was explained. :
 The inventor had no difficulty in op erating in all the waters about New York. His boat handled easily. deftly and safely. the only trouble being. as always. with the engine.
