WOMAN UNPROGEESSIVE.
At this late day, In fact f name is unknown and whose long hanle attached so that
tho act of collecting the swept up dust. Tired housewives all over tho country will welcome the announcement of an invention that Moses should have thought of, and after a hard day's work they will now he able to avoid the last straw that so frequently has broken the camel's back. There Is a special" significance in this invention. It shows that some tof tho greatest and most useful devices arc the most simple and proves the assertion, frequently made, that progress in the average kitchen, woman's domain is far behind that in the average business establishment, man's domain. Why is it that a woman will carry around a smoky, dirty, oil lamp when ho can afford electric lights, which, considering the element of danger, and the Inconvenience are really less expensive? Why is it that the hundreds of house wives still be ml ovr the washtub when machines will do the work as well and much easier? No matter what the device is, whether it be the gas range that eliminates dust, ashes and superfluous heat or the electric Hat iron that makes the old burden of Ironing a much less dreaded task, the housewife instead of receiving them with open arms avoids them as long as possible. This explains in a measure the reluctance of inventors to turn their genius towards the bettering of conditions In the home, toward the lightening of tho housewife's burden. The kitchen cabinet is a device that saves a woman hundreds of steps and an untold amount of energy which was formerly wasted and yet this is an invention of recent years and of more recent general use. There is no question that courses of domestic science in the public schools would make the housewife alert and ready to receive with open arms the latest labor saving devices. New Inventions are all right, but what the housewife wants is an Invention that will teach her how to adopt new ideas.
ERNE HPS iKnocks Out Italian in Fifth Round at Philadelphia Last Night. New York, Dec. 26. Frank Gotch, the American champion wrestler, it there be such a title, is taking on weight for the express purpose of building up his strength and being able to go to Europe and challenge llaekenschmidt, the world's undisputed champion at Greco-Koman style. Gotch now weighs twenty-five pounds more than when he wrestled Tom Jenkins, and he feels that he ought to be able to hold his own against Hackenschmidt or any other man across the waters. The particular grouch which is gnawing at Gotch's vitals, however, is what he calls the "presumptuous work of Tom O'Rourke in taking Joe Rodgers to Europe and billing him as the world's champion. He says he will go to London and force II ackensehmidt into a match, even if he has to post $3,000 to bind the bargain. "I am not afraid of Haekensehmidt or any other wrestler," declared Gotch. "My American record gives me the right to challenge anybody at catch-as-catch-ean. I will admit that I knowvery little about tlie Greco-Koman style, but I am willing to take a chance. "The idea of O'Uourke taking Rodgers over to Europe, though, and advertising him as the world's champion is what gets ire. This is perpostorous, and the English people will lie forced to see it as soon as I reach Rritish soil. I am not boosting my own game, for the records tell that, but I refuse to let an impostor like Rodgers go aiouud and try to take away my laurels, when 1 have beaten him to a standstill." Gotch says lie will start for Europe some t'.me in March. Effect of Sun Baths. "The tu'Kirjg of sua baths is one Ofthe most hoalthful things Jn the world." said Evan T. Roberts, of Cincinnati.

EUROPE JOR GOTCH Will Cross the Pond to Take a Whirl Wtih Big Foreign Wrestlers. Philadelphia, Fa., Dec. 26. Young Erne, the local 135 pounder, made short work of Joe Galligan, the Chicago Italian, in their scheduled six round windup at the National Athletic club yesterday afternoon, knocking the Windy city lighter out cold in the fifth round after a hurricane battle. Galligan came here heralded as a oraekerjack. Twice he had given Packey MeFarland a merry battle before his celebrated townsman could stow him away, while his victory over Unk Russell, another local star, at Indianapolis about eighteen months ago was still fresh in the minds of Philadelphia fans. It was hardly expected, therefore, that Erne would stow him, and many looked for Galligan to trim the local lad. Untile Even for Tho Hound. The battle was fairly even for two rounds, but Erne's speedy left drives began to tell in the third, and. catching Joe's guard down, the Philadelphian whipped in a cour of hard rights that , made Galligan wobble. Quick to take advantage, Erne swung another right to tho jaw and Galligan went to the floor. He got up slowly and stalled until the bell clanged. Galligan came back fresh enough for th fourth round, but seemed unable to avoid Erne's accurate mitt, which peppered him merrily and soon had him going again. Joe, however, weathered the storm and, getting in a punch occasionally that helped, staved his man off until the bell. j In the rtfth round Erne tore into the s fray like a wild cat. and. fighting i:s lie i never did before, kept on top of the : Italian and hammered him almost at will. Finally the opening presented itself, and with a right swing Hush to the point of the jaw Erne copped the money. Galligan going down and out for keeps. May Meet Paekey MePnrlnnd. Erne's victory was so decisive that he l.as probably earned a chance to meet MeFarland after the latter gets through with Tommy Murphy at Koston. on Jan. 7. Packey will probably appear here on Jan. 13, and his opponent will be either Erne or Johnny Summers of England. In the bout which preceded the r-.ain go Tommy Sullivan of Lawrence, Mass., knocked out Harry Jones of this city in the third round. Jones had a decided advantage over Sullivan in weight, but lie proved no match for Tommy, who dropped him in the first round and made the victory decisive by nearly sending Jones through the ropes with a right swing to the jaw. It was two minutes before Jones fully reeovered consciousness. Mickey Gannon of Pittsburg had ! George Jarseon of New York groggv iand almost out at the end of the sixth

After shooting the girl twice, one bullet entering the mouth and the other taking effect in the cheek, Green walked simc distance away from her and shot himself in the load. No one witnessed the occurrence, but the shots attracted a policeman, who hurried the couple to a hospital. The two bullets were extracted from tho girl's head, and there is a possibility of saving her life.

Y., Dec out Westchester county millionaires who have 23. Through -the New York country seats there gave Christmas dinners, gold, Christmas trees to the poor and brou or ht happiness to many a poor family. Miss Helen Gould, who maintains a homo for crippled boys from the slums of New York, called Woody Crest at Irvington-on-the-lludson, furnished a Christmas tree for the seventeen little inmates, and it was loaded down with toys, books, clothing and candy through her generosity. The night before Christmas the boys hung up their stockings and wrote letters to Santa Claus tilling their desires. Tho boys made a largo wreath of holly, which they sent to Miss Gould. It bore, in red flowers, these words: "Wishing Miss Gould a Merry Christmas from Woody Crest Roys." The boys' presents included tire entrines. trains of cars, books, bags of candy, fruit, and many of the newest toys. Miss Gould sent her proteges a message of greeting, in which she said: "May you have a pleasant and happy Christmas and a bright New Year." Today the boys had a chicken dinner with all the fancy fixings. Miss Gould also sent $10 gold pieces to the employes at the railroad station and the telegraph and telephone operators. So did William and John P. Rockefeller. Young John D. also gave gold pieces, and it was commented on that they were of tho new issue and did not have "In God We Trust" on thorn. Tho employes accepted them gladly, however. Congressman Andrr.s of Yonkers, who Is worth about $40.000,0n, gave turkeydinners to more than l,2'o poor families in Yonkers. A dozm express wagons and vans loaded with gifts went about the city. Each family received a turkey, bag of ilour. peck of potatoes, oranges, and other things to make up a good dinner.

When the service is over a general crusade is made in search of wasps' nest3, which are immediately destroyed. Some carry guns, some rags saturated in turpen'jne, while others carry paraffin, which is poured into the nest and a match applied. The anniversary is considered the most important event of the year.

UHEGEIitl Hotel Emlpoyes in New York Made Happy by Gifts From Guests. New York, Dec. 23. Gifts today were rained on tho employes in the hotels which house the wealthy. In the new Plaza, particularly, is was a merry Christmas. So keen was the demand at the office for e-ash that several guests were- compelle-d to postpone their elonations until tomorrow. Not only did the pages, bell boys, footmen, maids, and porters receive gifts of money, but some of the guests gave trinkets of various sorts. One bright faced page, received a fountain pen, a gold watch, a dozen handkerchiefs and $130. Mrs. C. II. Strong of Erie, Pa., mother of Mrs. Roglnalel Ronalds, who came to the hotel a week ago. distrib uted gold watches to about a dozen of her favorite servants. Alfreel Gwynno Vanderbilt, who is living at the Plaza, give away $1,000 in $10 and $5 bills. George J. Gould, who, with his fam ily, lives at the hotel was still calling the servants to his suite tonight and rewarding them with eye opening gifts of money. Christmas caught Mr. Gould unpreparen in a way. His cash supply i was not commensurate with his in tentions and his frequent requisitions on the hotel sate caused a money raraine. Guests In Cheerful Vein. John W. Gates was another Santa Claus was rejoiced the servants from the maitre d'hotel to the smallest page. Mr. Gates gave money. At other Fifth avenue hotels the same spirit prevailed. At the St. Regis one of the guests aske-el for a complete roster of the employes and blue penciled only a few of the names. In Sherry's, Delmonico's, the Waldorf-Astoria, the Gotham and the Hollanel House, presents were given right and left, though in some instances the gifts averaged less than a year ago. ifere and there were evidences ut stringent conelitions, but taking all things into consideration, Santa Claus was generous. All over the city from the Bronx to the Battery and over into the point where Coney Island shoves its nose into the set, there was merrymaking that must have satisfied the jolliest soul, and those who had no cheer of their own were bountifully supplied by those w-ho had enough and to spare.

Spokane, Wash., Dec. 25. Smuggling of costly wines, silks, opium, and Japanese from British Columbia into Washington has been reduced to such a .science by organized gangs working along the boundary that immigration officers and secret service men admit they are baffled.

The rush of Japanese across the border is giving the immigration officers the most concern. A dozen have been caught in western Washington in the last ten days, but so far the authorities have not been able to fix the responsibility. However, the officers ad mit that a band of clever smugglers is at work, guiding the undesirable aliens into Washington, and then leaving them to take care of themselves.
