"Clubbed" to Death.
It 1h mild Hint Kcvcrnl loaders in tlio
progression of woman feel convinced
tlmt (lie clubbing bitHinoKH Iiiih becu

Iiiih shown lier eolois in the following
fashion, in the Manchester Union:
"One passing word pood ntitnred, not
ennt4inloroiis about clubs: "It la
borne m upon mo anxiously that
women nowadays, at least, in and about
the (front center), are clubbing them
Helves to death, and 1 think I hnvo
found out the heroic reason why. Sud
denlya lltllu while ago they cIIh
covered that there were too many in
the world ever ho many to one man
and with ti grand Hiigncity and u
yet grnndor altruinm, they net out to
thin down, nH rapidly and effectively
tin possible, their own ranlcH. Natnral
iHtH tell iih of a wonderful little race of
Ahudian rodents, which once in n cer
tain period rcaohcH an enormous in
crease, so that lt numbers are beyond
compulation. Then, all at once, oi
their own accord, they net forth in
-Htemly columns, deliberately, comfort
nbly, gnyly, picking up their snlll-'
cient substance as they go, and even '
multiplying on the way, until their '
persistent march brings them to the
Pacific sen, into which they calmly
"walk, mid aie drowned. Toward some
mich bir 'c, pathetic burial and end is
the great woman concourse, of its own
sublime will and purpose, marching

Julian Jami:s V. ITauvky, of the i
Montgomery circuit court, Cr.iwfordu ;
"vlllc, lnd., is about to establish a new I
court, rule which will practically dc I
nwny with Hie "professional juryman," I
"who has been such an annoying curse
to all ;ourts in Indiana from time lin
memorial. .ludge JIarvey proposes to
guard against this class by ordering
tlic jury commissioners to draw the
regular panel of 12 and then cither four
or six additional talesmen who can be
called in to tnhe the; places of thoe of
1he regular panel excused by the court.
The sheriffs dcclarp that the pro
fessional Jurymen become more numer
ous every year, and are most annoying,
rendering a sheriff's position, especial
ly in election years, most embarrassing.
Tiir proverb about an ill wind had
u curious Illustration in the course of
the long drought last summer and fail.
It was thought everybody suffered
from it, but it was n great tiling lor
the owners of the coal mines in Hop
kins county, Ky. because of the
drought the Ohio river became closed
to navigation, nnd the Pennsylvania
cool was shut out. of Louisville and
other important Kentucky markets.
As a consequence there wns n great de
mand made upon the local coal mires,
and they were all run at their extreme
capacity for three or four months.
A cownoY was brought into Tucson,
A. T., recently from a range In the St.
Simon valley, to be treated for a
wounded instep, which had been shut- '
tered by n pistol bullet of big caliber.
The shooting, it wns explained, oc
curred during a round-up. There was
no quarrel between the injured man
and tins man who shot, him, "but ono
morning when they got out. the air
was pretty crispy, and they begun
shooting ut each other to increase the, i
circulation of the blood." I
Tun old house of the Aldens at Dux
bury, Mass., built about 10.10, is now oc
cupied by the ninth John Alden in di
rect descent from the John whose pret
ty love story is so well known. lie has
u littk daughter, PriscillaMullins, too,
says a writer in the Kostau Tran
script, but her brother, the tenth John
Alden, was, killed by lightning in a
storm last summer; so the line of John
Alden is now broken.
SnvEitAL large consignments of salm
on eggs have lately been sent from
this country to Europe. Last week a
crate of 50,000 eggs was shipped to the
United States fishery nt Dalrd, Cal., to
Ireland, nnd nnother crate, containing
25,000 eggs, wns shipped from the same
place to Germany.
Some of the banks In New York find '
It to their advantage in cashing checks '

this way they cater successfully to tlie
Instinctive feminine regard for nicety
nnd neatness, and find their reward in
feminine appreciation.

Smoking Goes hi That )llloo.
There Is one postmaster in Ohio whr
does not fear the inspector. HecentPj
an old uitiid informed the postmaster-
general that there was smoking in the
post office at . 0. She went
straight to hendquartcrs. The postmaster-general
notified inspeetor-ln-Charge
Salmon to investigate, and he did. lie
found tlmt the ot office wns In a
grocery store. The postmaster wn the
storekeeper, and, in reply to the de
tective, said: "Yes, I smoke, nnd my
son smokes. And let me tell you Home
thing. Smoking is a necessity with me
and the post office is not: so thcsoofl'T
you take your office away the better
I'll like It." The office paid nbout five
dollars n yenr and nobody else would
take it. so the postmaster was informed
that Ii'j might smoke nil he wanted to
so long as he did not blow it in people's
faces.
A HUDDKXnnd unprecedented demand
for cents has lately sprung up in vnri
oiin parts of the country, and the Phil
adelphia mint has been turning out the
bright copper coins at. a rate unpre
cedented in the history of the estab
lishment. Nine presses, with a ca
pacity of $500 wortli of pennies an
hour, have been busy for weeks filling
the demands. The rutuion of the de
mand is that In Philadelphia un
eight-cent exchange fare ha been es
tablished by the street car railroads.
In Detroit a three-cent fare Iiiih been
established on the street railroads.
Changes of n similar character have
also been made in other large cities.
Then a great many defective cent h have
been received for redemption lately.
Uargttln-countcr prices, with odd cents,
hnvo something to do with the demand,
too.
Rhode Island will join Pennsylvania
in an effort to preserve the lines at the
famous camp ground of the revolution,
Valley Forge. The former state linn ap
propriated $2,000 and provided a commis
sion to erect a monument to the mem
ory of John Waterman, from that state,
who died at Valley Forge during the cn
enmpmeut and wn buried within the
lines. The grave Is located on the Pier
bol farm, now occupied by I. Ileston
Todd, about 600 yards east of Fort
Huntingdon and about 100 yards south
of the road leading from Volley Forge
to Port Kennedy. Gov. Lippett, who is
chairman of the commission, bus writ
ten Gov. Hastings, of Pennsylvania, say
ing that the Khode Island commission
will visit this place soon and desires to
cooperate with the Valley Forge com
mission. Tun practical purpose of our farmers'
institutes is to make farming more re
munerative. It is scarcely to be ex
pected that the business will become as
profitable as It was during and for some
years after the war period, but Secre
tary Morton, in his last report, speaks
encouragingly of the industry. He
argues that, inasmucli'ns the supply of
land appropriated for tillage remains
practically stationary and consumption
of farm products increases with the
rapidly growing population, the value
of farm lands must soon advance. This
view Is also entertained by others. M.
C. Wood Davis, in a series of articles in
one of our leading reviews, predicted a
rise in the not distant future. The drop
in laud villous is not confined to this
country; it has ulso occurred in many
purtfl of the world.
The tables were turned in a Bur
prising manner on an exultant crook
by a smart Yankee deputy sheriff in
York county, Me., the other day. The
deputy was after the crook, and came
up with him just across the border in
New Hampshire. The crook was safe
from the deputy's warrant there, but
in order to be safer he boarded a train
f oi the interior of tlio state. That was
his mistake. The deputy boarded the
same truiu, and took a seat near the
crook. At a point a few miles ahead
the railway truck ran across a comer
of York county, Me. The deputy knew
this, but the crook didn't. When the
line was crossed the deputy pulled the
bell rope, stopped the train, dragged
tlio crook out of his seat, put him off
the train, and arreBtcd him.
A JoruN (Mo.) man bought ten
dozen cloaks at a St. Louis sale, and he
has given them out to littlo girls in
Joplin whose parents were unable, to
buy them warm garments to wear to
school. There's n littlo practical phil
anthropy that is worthy of emulation.
The latest faith cure reported in
Maine is thnt of a lady who applied a
clothes cleaning preparation to her
face, thinking it was a liniment, and
who said it relieved her neuralgia
greatly.
