TOPICS OF
THE TIMES.
Tlio OnlvcHton News speaks of diver
sified fnrinlii in the light of "self de
fense crops."
It cost to take tlio coiiHUB $15,000,000.
That Ih u largo sum, hut It Is only 120
cents apiece for euch citizen.
Tlio Shah of Persia announces thnt
lie Is going to write a hook. He can
Milord to. lie doesn't have to run for
his ollice.
A curious coincidence In this pecu
lating batik clerk business Is that the
batik mostly llnds the clerk out by tlio
time that It llnds Itself out consider
ably. Look lifter tho transmitter of your
telephone, see that It Is kept clean, and
you may possibly escape Infection and
an unforeseen doctor's bill, llesldes,
not to do It Is wrong.
A woman In New York the other day
thrashed two street car rowdies who
were making things too Interesting for
the conductor. Thus does woman's
sphere widen as she becomes the chain
liloti of weak man and the redressor
of his wrongs.
If It Ib left to China to select the olll
dais who are to be punished, few of
them will suffer. It Is an old trick In
China to select n substitute and bribe
him to die for the mike of the family.
Human life Is cheap there, and this sort
of "iulck life lusuraucc" Is common.
Tho man who experimented on his
face with a chemical preparation war
ranted to remove the beard without a
razor has acquired some Information
ns to the action of certain acids on the
human cuticle which will be of advan
tage to other adventurers as well as
himself. This would be a dull world
If nobody had any curiosity and every
body had hciihc.
The possible philanthropist, undecld
rd whether to give to his native town a
library or a reformatory, a gymnasium
or a hospital, may Ilud his answer In a
recent conversation. A clergyman vis
iting In Cleveland accosted a well
known settlement worker to tell of a
due reform school In his place. The
citizens were very proud of It. "And
how about the schools for good boys In
your townV" came the answer. "Are
they anything to be proud of?" The. vis
itor stared, but he did not know.
Spanish public men assert that the
loss of Its colonial possessions has con
tributed to the prosperity and strength
of Himln. Klnce pence was declared
and friendly relations have been re-established
with the United States the
material progress of Spain has been re
markable. Not only have the larger
cities experienced a change for the bet
ter, but places of less Importance
throughout the kingdom have shown
wonderful Increase In manufacturing
luduMrlcs. Commerce In geheral has
been making rapid progress, and that
between Spain and the United States
during the past year has been gieater
than at any time since 1SSI. Krom
which It appeai-H that national calami
ties may be transmuted Into national
blessings, If that spirit In men or na
tions which rises superior to despair bo
not absent.
Tho questloe has been raised ns to
whether girls of 'JO ought to be allowed
to choose their own reading, ami
whether there are not pitfalls In libra
ries for those who are permitted to
browse about at will. Like other prob
lems of this kind, one Is compelled to
admit that It all depends upon the girl,
and If the girl Ik (Ike most girls of i!0
It will not much matter what one says;
(die will have her way. The dlllleulty
about putting only the best books In a
girl's way Is like that of Insisting upon
a certain kind of porridge; It may re
milt In u distaste for books of any kind.
There are times In a girl's life when
Bhe prefers pickles to the most whole
home article of diet, and when she en
joys the clandestine consumption of
choeolatt) creams more than the most
nourishing of family feasts. There Is
the plekle and chocolate stage In novel
reading, and a time when the Darning
bit of llctlon under the pillow Is worth
u dozen of tho Hlaudanl novels on tho
library hhelves. Hut a girl who escapes
for a time from a prosaic world Into an
Imaginary kingdom of perpetual love
makings, Hoplcl by feverish scraps of
femininity, comes at last to detect and
be repelled by the uuuaturaluess and
absurdities. In lime she will come to
have a natural hunger for the normal
and the true, Just us sho gets over her
ubuormal cravings for pickled and
chocolates.
Fertile as Chicago Is In crime, and
always leading the lists with Its contri
butions to the weird and horrible, the
last offering surpasses any since tho
I'ddcntook case, A young woman Is In
duced to lusuie her life and transfer the
policy to her betrothed husband. Then
bhe dies under peculiarly suspicious
circumstances (hat point to the bene
tlclary under the policy transfer, ami
the Insurance companies resist pay
incut upon the assumption that she has
been murdered In order to defraud
them. The lover and a practicing phy
sician Is placed under arrest. It Is thou
tihowu that there was a conspiracy
formed by three or four more, two of
whom were detectives, of whom one U
In custody. Then, as was to lw ex
pected, the whole case was revealed,
ud tho dctcclWv, to vuvi kin mUerable
lift "squealed." From what has beca
revealed the crime was heartless and
deliberate beyond credence. The girl
was mndc the object of special atten
tion before she was, led to engage her
self to the man chosen to 1111 the role of
lover. He deliberately won her heart
and confidence, and It was therefore no
mere opportunity that led the rascals
to commit their Infamous deed. They
planned the crime first, and thou went
out to seek n victim and found her In
an Innocent and respectable young
woman, whose life was sacrificed In
cold blood and for the most sordid purposes.
Ofllclnl npproval encourages women
to don tho short skirt. The State
Hoard of Health of Connecticut,
through Its secretary, Dr. 0. A. Llnd
ley, describes long skirls on tile streets
ns pickers of tilth. The short skirt Is
especially commended to teachers ns a
guarantee to that extent that microbes j
will not be swejit by It from the thor
oughfares Into the schoolroom. Not for i
teachers only but for all women Is tho I
short skirt to be commended for out-1
doors. Its advantages are many. It '
enables n, woman to walk more freely,
throwing her shoulders Imck, keeping
her hands and arms for defense In enso
of attack or accident nnd nt the same
time protecting her from entanglement
In wheels or other obstructions In case
of runaways. For this reason me Iron
tradition of the loug-tralued saddle
gown has been broken, That tradition
sacrifices more lives ninong women
riders than all other causes of horse
back fatalities. Tlio hygienic virtues
of the short skirt are so obvious that
they need no recapitulation. Even on
the dry and clean walks of private
grounds ami dwellings a trailing skirt
Is llnblei to gamer microscopic germs.
Tho dust of u city llnds Its way
through the closest tloors and windows
and burrows with Its pests In carpets.
For city streets the long skirt Is an
mazing sign of stupidity on the part
of the wearer. The hour may arrive
when ordinance will forbid crossing
sweeping by textures certain to trans
port danger from ordure and sputa Into
public halls, churches and schools to
the peril of humanity. It Is perversely
claimed by some too fanatical oppo
nents of tho common-sense skirt that
nil women wear the short skirt out
doors now except those whose feet are
not properly shod or are otherwise un
presentable. This Is clearly a slander.
A man was arrested the other day for
deserting his wife. Now, this thing of
marrying a woman and then running
away from her Is bad. It ought to bo
generally discouraged. Still, there
would seem to be exceptions even 111
matters of this kind. The man In the
case appears to have had provocation.
"She went to an astrologer," ho explain
ed to tlio magistrate, "and the astrolo
ger told her she was going to be mar
ried twice. living her tlrst, I decided
that It was up to me cither to die or
quit, and not wanting to die I thought
I'd quit." Wo can't blaino this poor
man for wanting to get out of his pre
dicament In the easiest way ho could
think of. There was the word of tho
astrologer, for which the woman had
paid $'J out of her husband's earnings.
Was It for the latter to remain and take
his chances? Obviously lie could not do
so without showing a contempt for life
or exhibiting a disbelief In that which
was perhaps a solace and a comfort to
his wife. There was logic In ills deci
sion to take himself out of the way and
give tho other Mltiw n chance, , but the
woman, being tlctormliUHl thnt ho
should escape none of the hardships
that fate had mapped out for him, went
to the police and had the matt arrested.
Then n Justice, with no Idea of the lit
hcsh of things, ordered the husband to
go back to his wife nnd support her,
and there was nothing left for him to
do but obey. It Is such cases as this
that cause pessimism to spread In the
world. The woman has her next hus
band to look forward to, hut what hope
can there lie for the man? What Incen
tive can he have to go ahead and accu
mulate wealth, knowing that the astrol
oger or the second husband will get
what Is left out of the household ex
penses? In some respects It Is still a sad
old world.

A group of men were exchanging sto
ries of adventure In n grocer's store In
a small Western town.
"I've been In camp," said one of them;
"only came down yesterday. One morn
ing last week I struck the trail of a
grizzly about half a mile above the
camp. I followed that trail without
let un till about half-past four that
afternoon, ami then I gave It up, ami !
went back to cntnp."
"What possessed you to quit after
mittltiK In n whole day's work?" asked !
one of his listeners.
Well, to tell tho truth," said the
grlKzly'a follower, shifting his weight
ponderously from one leg to tho other, j cent per annum and tho cosU and dis
"It seemed to tue tho trail was gettlug burseuionta ol this uotlou.
