CLUNG TO LIFE.

Milton Women Are Cultured and Able to Support Themselves.

Are

Milton, ma., Aug. 31 a squidd go

ing the rounds of the press states that

there Is an unusual number of unmarried women In Milton. The town board and the postmaster receive nu

merous letters from men expressing a

willingness to relieve the condition supposed to exist here. Milton people do not rear their daughters with the idea that the chief aim of woman is to get married. Local women are cultured and generally well-to-do or very capable of self-support, so perhaps may be a little slow about taking a man to care for or to be a hindrance.

THE PLAGUE AT HONOLULU. A Case Is Discovered on the Steamer Sierra. Honolulu, Aug. 31 A case of plague is reported on the mail steamer Sierra, just arrived here, a member of the crew being ill.

MEETINGS ARE WELL ATTENDED Hagerstown, Ind., Aug. 31. The meetings which are being held at the German Baptist church west of town by J. G. Rogers of Elgin, 111., are being well attended, considering the busy season.

An Old Time Natchez Indian Who Re

fused to Be Sacrificed.

One of the repulsive features of the laws under which the Natchez Indians

were governed was that when a mem

ber of the royal family of the nation

died it was necessary that several otb

ers or tne people snould accompany

him to the tomb by suffering death al the hands of executioners. When the

"great sun," the hereditary chief of the

whole nation, died, all his wives, ic case he were provided with more than

one, and also several of his subjects

were obliged to follow him Into the

vale of shadows. The "little suus.

secondary chiefs, and also members ol

the royal family likewise claimed when

dying their-tribute of death from tb

living. In addition to this, the Inex

orable law also condemned to death any man of the Natchez race who had

married a girl of the royal line of th "suns." On the occasion of her death

he was called upon to accompany her

"I will narrate to you upon this sub

ject, writes an old French chronicler of Louisiana, "tbe story of an Indian who wnsot in a humor to submit tc

tins law. ills name was litteacteai

He hud contracted ftn alliance with the 'suns.' The honor came near having n

fatal result for hira. Ills wife fell sick

and as soon as he perceived that she was approaching her end be took to flight, embarking in a pirogue on tbe MlssissiDoI. and sought a refuge in

New Orleans. He placed himself un

der the protection of the governor, wbc

was at that time M. de Bienville, offer ing himself to be the governor's hunt

er. The governor accepted his services and interested himself in his behalf with the Natchez, who declared in an

swer that he had nothing to fear, lnas

much as the ceremony was over, and as he had not been present when It took place he was uo longer available

as a candidate for execution.

to come in and look at the large line of Base Burners, Heaters and Ranges that we have on our floors. Winter is only a few days away. You need a base burner why not call at once selec while you have time and while we have time to show you. If you do not want the base burner placed in your home now, just pay a small sum down in order to hold it, and we will deliver it to you when you are ready. Special price inducements will be given all this next week in order to have you call and select early. It will mean a whole lot of time and rush saved to us, and a neat sum of "money saving" to you.

A TRUE SAYING

Housekeepers ! Save dollars in fuel ! You cannot afford to say to yourself. "My old stove will have to do this winter." The old stove is eating up the price of a new one every year. Not only that, but on top of the cost is the unsatisfactory result it gives. It is always out the coldest morning. The Favorite Base Burner is the modern heater. It produces an even temperature. Even heat all night. Fire never out in a Favorite Base Burner. It has three times the radiating power of other base burners. No extremes of heat and cold. If you want to keep your plants from freezing and enjoy the luxury of getting up in a warm room every morning without kindling new

fires, investigate the Favorite Base Burner at once.

Love Me, Love My Dog.

A curious incident, involving a yount

and good looking Frenchwoman an" her dog, occurred recently ou a con tinental railway. For several hour the young weman bestowed more at tentlou and tender care upon the pret ty little creature than the majority o women do upon their firstborn, one! at every station it was taken out foexercise. and between stations it wa?

fed with dainty nibbles taken fror: its special basket, which also con talned extra wraps, fresh shoes n; a gay collar with a huge bow. Whaattracted most attention was, how ever, the purchasing of a bottle o mineral water, the taking out of j tiny folding traveling cup, into whiei some f-the wnter was poured, an the Lipping of it tip by the pet.

A Truo American Typa.

Robertson's Bcttlemeata were email, his followers were rude, rough men. but the future of those little colonic was tig with destiny, and from tso loins of his pioneer has descended a race of men who, measured by achievement, are perhaps Inferior to none that ever trod the earth. Tbe deeds of tbe leader himself were enacted In an obscure corner of the world, but bis heroism was not lesa. than that of other men whose fame is brighter because tbe theater of their action was more In tbe gaze of the world.
