Battle In the Northern Pineries
Won by the Former.
The Vast Woods No Lunger Filled with
Stockades in Whtolt Helpless Women.
Are Kept Prisoners and Chased
by Savage Dogs.
In the northwest forests where but a
few years ago vice most hideous boldly
paraded itself in the public fraze and
almost to the present lurked but little
concealed in the neighborhood of popu
lous communities, experienced search
fails to And any vestiges of the deprav
ity that formerly prevailed. Occasional
discovery of haunts like those that
once infested the entire northwest re
gion now raises a decidedly indignant
outcry apainst such monstrosities of
the past.
And yet, says the Chicago Journal, it
was only eight or ten years ago that
every settlement in the pineries and the
mining camps of the northwest vied
one with another in infamous and law
less practices. Citizens of more than
one locality in Michigan or Wisconsin,
after pointing out the improvements ol
a decade in the appearance of theii
thriving city, conclude a tribute to the
moral standing of the place and its citi
zens witn the statement that a score of
vears ago this was by reputation "the
most disreputable town in the United
States."
In every lumbering town was to be
found from two to a dozen stockades,
dens of infamy where womanhood was
held as cheaply as in any hurem of an
oriental prince. At first these stood on
'requented streets, later in by-ways of
;he city, finally retreating before the
advance of public decency to the cover
of the woods, half a mile from any
highway. Hither were brought young
girls enticed from Chicago, Minneap
olis, and even more distant cities
Every dive had its procuresses in everj
lity within reach. Under the contro
of brutal men and hardened women
the youthful victims were inducted ink
their lives of shame, never to he re
leased until death came. High wall:,
of sixteen-foot timber placed on end
surrounded the rude huts. At the
barred gateway was kept a kennel of
fierce bulldogs, trained to pursue only
the unfortunate women that might at
tempt an almost uselessflight.
The disappearance of even the very
'vails that sheltered these iuiiuities is
jiiicthiiig marvelous. Some were
razed to the ground by woodmen,
wearied of the immorality they fos-
erd. All have vanished excepts few,
which stand decaying and deserted re
nindera of the old strongholds. One of
liese is In the pine woods norosa the
.(('nominee river from Norway, Mich,
t was one of the moat notorious resort:
if the northern region. Within tlu
tiK'kade stood a commodious two-storj
frame house. The stockade itself wa
of planking, sixteen feet high, with i
strong gate facing the front ciitniinK
ff the house, on either ai''- of whi"'

in order to deceive the dogs, waa the
ncans of bringing to notice thu char-t.-tcr
of the place mid its tenants.

ssurancea of reputable employment.
Twice licforo alio hnd attempted
to escajte, eluding thu dogs by her
change of apjK'arnnce, but had been
overtaken by the keeper of the place.
A prominent lawyer in Norway awore
out a warrant againat the aluve muster

ment convinced him of the advisability
of a change of business. He betook
himself to the roper mining country
on the shore of Lake Sua-rior and en

now thu possessor of a fortune of five
hundred thousand dollar.
The house he once occupied when en
gaged in his aoiilli'sa business, still
stands, dilapidated and temmted only
ly the horrible association, and per
haps by the fciifTcrlngMplritaof the past.
On the denying framework of the
stockade still hang the lurrr plunk,
separated by Midi gup, through w hich

" 'Wait until we are inside of the
house,' I said to the driver, feeling
guiltily conscious that I wanted : the
footman to see that we did not arrive
in tho "bus.'
" 'Why?' inquired my husband, inno
cently (men are so stupid, they never
suffer from these aristocrats of the
kitchen).
" 'Oh,' I answered, feebly, 'perhaps
it's tho wrong night, or. Why can't
ho stay?' I exclaimed, petulantly.
" 'Why, certainly, Tessie, if you want
him to; I don't mind,' said poor Jack,
bewildered.
"Inside the door was another foot
man and Mrs. M.'s own maid,. who
looked critically at my home-made
gown and shook out my skirts with
proud humility. Yon Vnnw tho Mits
house and how the room in wnich they
receive their dinner guests is beyond
the big drawing-room; so, although I
was longing to ask Jack if my hair was
all right and receive the comforting
assurance, which he always gives, dear
fellow, that I looked 'awfully fit,' I felt
rather than saw that tho butler was
waiting patiently and reproachfully to
usher U3 through the anteroom and an
nounce us. 'Come,' I said to myself as my
glove wouldn't goon and I felt that the
battery of observant.calmly critical eyes
was more than I could endure, 'do re
member, you snobbish little thing, that
you are as good as Mrs. Midas' butler,
anyway,' and, rallying my self-respect,
I deliberately finished buttoning my
glove and swept haughtily through the
rooms.
" 'By Jove, Tessie,' said Jack after
ward, 'you looked like a regular little
queen of Sheba. What made you ao
grand?'
" 'It was the instinct of self-preservation,'
I answered. 'I simply had to
assert myself to keep from feeling ut
terly overwhelmed.' "

"Indians sometimes face light fire
arms with great courage, but they fight
shy of the attentions of any weapon
that sends a largo projectile," said Col.
F.' A. Blake, who has had wide experi
ence on tho western plains. "The rush
and scream of the heavy bulleta fright
ens them, and they prefer to keep away
from their range. To that not unrea
sonable prejudice Is due tho fact that
the Im flu I o hunters of tho early '70s,
who in following their business were
constantly exposed to the attacks of
hostile Indiana, were molested com
paratively little by them. Tho long,
heavy rille, with its telescopic aighta
and the knowledge of the deadly cer
tainty of the buffalo hunter aim, al
most invariably served to make the red
man keep hiadiatance, and set him tem
porarily free from the notion of scalp
hunting.

torn ot i.nuu, to beiiouu such of her sol
diers as fall into the hands of the ene
my, and are afterward returned to their
country. During several naval and
land engaprement3 upward of five
thousand Chinese troops wero captured
by Japanese, and it is to preserve their
lives that the foregoing provision was
inserted in tho treaty. Tho same con
siderations influenced the other provi
sion relative to the purchase of sup
plies from Chinese subjects. The curi
ous fact develops in this connection
that China has not a single prisoner of
war belonging to Japan.
The United Press dispatch, which
contained the exclusive announcement
that the indemnity of two hundred mil
lion taels will be paid in seven yearly
instalhnentsdiiTers from official reports
previously, received, which limited the
payment to five instead of seven install
ments. It is believed, however, that
the statement contained In tho United
l'ress dispatch is correct. While no
definite information has been received
regarding the matter, it is understood
that the indemnity will take the form
of a bond issue on the part of China, the
bonds to be retired during a period of
seven years, and to bear Interest at five
per cent, per annum. The presumption
is still very strong that the indemnity
will be paid in silver.
Until the beginning of the war be
tween China and Japan each country
had a consular jurisdiction over its sub
jects in the other country. It would
now appear that Japan will no longer
grant this privilege to China, although
8tirmla,i"' ' "ontinuanee of this
right for hertielf. The explanation
given for this exception is that Japan
is now a civilized country, with a code
of laws based on the highest prin
ciples of justice and cqu'ty, and that
she can be safely trusted, therefore, to
deal fairly with the Chinese subjects
living within her borders. China, on
the o'u-r hand, it is asserted, is still a
barbarous country, and foreigners there
must receive the protection of their
own country since little, if any, will be
afforded to them by the local authori
ties. NICHOLAS II. IN PEACE.

There la no safety In predicting any
turn in a game in which a youthful
monarch of Kussia holds a strong nand,
but, though muiiy rumors have been
running around about the new czar,
Nieholua II., there seems no probability
of hia undertaking any inllammublu
role, says Col. T. ti. Dodge in the
Forum. Itimln hi ao iinv'i to

of her army haa the new small-bore

the other regiments are no equipped.
Her revenues are none too great. KumiIii,
needs her money for the great tranv
SilH-rian railway, and she ought not to
blow It oul of the mouth of big guns.
So l"1,nt tl"re la a tension In many of
