A scare of generous dimensions took possession of three of the men who are working on the taking of borings for the waterworks system. During the early part of the evening yesterday rhortly after they had gone to work the men heard unearthly screeches in the woods near them and the boys all agree that they saw green eyes staring at them from several different points In the woods. Tho scramble that those men made for the top of the derrick which is used for hoisting the drilling apparatus made a claim opening in Nebraska look like a Sunday school session in July. The "varmits" maintained a constant vigil during the whole night shrieking at intervals to help the boys keep up their courage. They kept it up on the top of the derrick and insist that the whole tower hasn't a single soft spot on it, at least not near the top. According to their statements the animals are supposed to hive been wildcats.

A mysterious walkout of waiters occurred recently in Brooklyn at the hotel where 200 Methodist ministers met in an annual conference. The waiters, paid at the usual rate, asked for extra money, and, not getting it, departed in a body. A second force was engaged, and very shortly they, too, quit, leaving the clergy in imminent peril of famine. Did the waiters happen to be Presbyterians? Was a physical plague or a spiritual contamination feared by the . garcons. who hesitated not to serve saloon keepers and tainted money ktngs? The ministers felt hurt. Neither theology nor experience seemed able to indicate the cause of this unjust discrimination. A waiter, however, made everything clear and simple by saying: "The preachers never give us tips; see? That's the trouble." N. Y. Tribune. Forever Young. J. Ogden Armour, returning to America on the Kronprinz Wilhelm, neatly pricked the "child musician" bubble. A young man was praising the various child musicians of the last fewseasons. "And there is Nieolo. that wonderful hoy violinist," he exclaimed. "Have you ever heard the nine-year-old Nicolo?"' "O, yes," sa:d Mr. Armour, yawning, 'I heard him 15 years ago at Covent Garden." Where Hops Come From. Scott Boozer wears a little gold kangaroo on his watchchaia.

Modern Woman Two Women Whose Heads Cannot Be Turned by Money Mrs. Kiliien Will Keep on Scrubbing Floors as Before :: :: :: ::

j Recently I have read of two women i whose Leads are level. Both have J fallen heir to considerable fortunes; I both take the matter as calmly and j philosophically as if they picked up j thousand dollar bills in the street every j ilav. One of these philosophers Is Mrs. i Mary Smith Kiliien, a bright faced Irishwoman who scrubs the floors of a jrreat oClce building in New York. Mrs. Kiliien is u widow with two daughters, whom she has brought up by the labor of her hands. Her pay is only n few dollars a week, but when she got the news that a brother had died and left ! her $110,000 and that the money was j waiting for her she said: "Sure, this is j very unexpected. I'm not needin' the ! money particularly, but it will come ia j handy for me daughters. They will get an eddycation for themselves, but their mother will stay here an' scrub an' earn an honest liviu'. If I wint home I suppose I'd barg out the winder all tlay an' get cs stout as an elephant. Why should I quit work because I've a few dollars V Would ye expect me to lay down like an on!J woman? Indade. I'm continted to work as long as tJod Almighty gives me strength. '' Tho other woman whose head is packed so full of good, strong common sense that t-he cannot be dazed by good fortune lives In Washington. Fhe is Mrs. Edith Sage Emerson, niece of Russell Sage. She is not going to contest her uncle's will, but will accept thankfully the $:0,000 Uncle Russ' widow has given to each of his nieces and nephews. She appears to be the one Sage heir who remembers the fact that Fhe never earned a Uollnr of the Sage fortune and there, is no reason, therefore, in equity, why she should get any of it. When she gets the $.'0.000 she will gr to Europe and study art. which she has longed to do for years. Only weakminded women and old men in their dotage live in the past. Don't do it. Look forward and always look for something brighter and better than the past has brought, doing your best to deserve it. V. l Do you know what Herbert Spencer said? "In the history of humanity the saddest part concerns itself with the treatment of woman. Cannibalism, th? torturing of prisoners, the sacrificing of victims to ghosts and gods these have been but occasional, but the treatment of woman has been universal and constant. The amount of suffering she has borne is beyond the imagination."' n Here is the story of a hysterical man and one of those air obstructing, dust catching lambrequins: Edward Harrlgan got up in the morning and lighted a gas stove to get breakfast on. The ! flame blazed up and set fire to the j mantel lambrequin. Edward screamed for help. His "wife fainted" at least the newspaper young man said she did. Neither of the nervous pair had sense enough to grab that fool drapery and choke the fire out. which could have been done in half a minute by anybody with a head on. Instead an alarm was turned in, and the fire department came, wagon, hook and ladder and engine. A dozen gallant firemen rushed in and put the lambrequin out. The extent of tlie damage was the loss of the lambrequin. 5 . Thirteen men were out in a launch in the Ilousatonic river. The launch struck a log and sank. The men were thrown into the water. Two women who knew how to run a launch put out in their own boat and rescued all of the thirteen men. I have heard a choice bit of slang which is new to me. A salesgirl in a dry goods store was imparting to a companion one of the thrilling confidences which young saleswomen generally exchange when a customer in a hurry is waiting for them. The girl who heard the tale raised her hands, looked upward and exclaimed, "Well, now, wouldn't that put your eye out?" t Out of thirty stories in a recent month's issue of leading magazines seventeen were by women writers. There Is no other fiction writer today so popular as Marie Corelli. Nearly 10,000 copies- of her last book, "The Treasure of neaven," were sold In Great Britain on the day It was published. v. st The recent marriage of Miss Louise Forsslund and Mr. Carey Waddell was tli3 union of two American literary people. The wedding took place at the Sayville (N. Y.) home of the bride's father. Why I mention It especially Is that by request of the bride and groom the words "obey" and "serve" were omitted from the marriage ceremony that. too. by a just and liberal minded Episcopal clergyman. Onca more. my friends, permit me to observe that the sun do move. l v. The most despicable creature on this earth is the "biddable" woman, whether she be under the thumb of her husband, her pastor or her folks. ! Says Mrs. Christine Terhune Herrick, writing of a certain old woman, i "Awhile ago she was enjoying poor ' health, but lately she has been conplaining of feeling better." Just so. f- ELIZA AECIIARD CONNER.
