make certain changes in the exterior
appearance of the house and these pros

that they were likely to affect the entire

job of remodeling the house, was on

was begun. Messrs. Ackers and Moore

Doors were removed, windows torn out
and new and striiniro holes were cut in
the adobe walls. A protest was entered

man for rain when the wind is in the

They called on Justice Kinciid
through their attorney, Juilra Wood

water from a canteen lying on the
wagon. Sim told him it was empty and
he immediately drew a revolver and
began tiring at her. The first shot
plowed beneath the skin on the left
shoulder, the second struck her in tho
back and two others whizzed by her
oar. Her son jumped from the wat:on
and ran away and the Indian soon after
left the wagon having evidently emp

M. Castrioni, an Italian olllcer, who

Tho Children's building at the Colum
bian exposition and tho attached creche,
as it is called, will bo places of great
Interest as well as of much valuo tc
mothers. Although tho plan is borrowed
from France, it is to be hoped that the i
experience of tho good ladies will' ba I
very different. During tho Paris ex
position of 1889 mothers took their in
fants to tho creche and loft them in caro
of trained nurses while they wandered
about the grounds, and when the ex-:
position closed tho appalling fact waa
published that about 3,000 infants had
been, abandoned and left to tho mercies
of the creche.

at Chicago, however, will be only a
minor adjunct to tho Chil'iron's build

deliver lectures on foreign countries,
illustrating with stereopticon, and then
the children will bo taken in classes to

ble. Georgo Cary, a Buffalo architect,
drew tho plaus for tho building, which
is an adaptation of tho parnco of Fran

is 00 by 150 feet. Tho general form is a
long rectangle, with a projecting wing
at each end, theso wings inclosing u
wide open court beforo the main en
trance. Tho great object was to secure
abundance of light and air for each
room. The main structure is but one
story high nnd the wings but two, and
on top of the former is to be a broad and
airy roof gaidcn, well secured, on which
the children can disport t'.iemselves in
safety. Thero will bo reci iving, dress

everything to make life p'.oasant for the
little ones. There will also bo a phys

Mr. II. C. Richards lectured in the
English metropolis tho other evening on
"London's 1 ,500 Years," and among other
things said: "If you see, as yon occasion
ally may, a little party wandering about
curiously poking nnd prsjig into old
corners armed with Baedeker or Hare,
wanting to get into closed churches (a
standing shame) and asking where are
ancient monuments whicn had been
swept away by greed and uvnrice, they
are sure to bo American, not English.
Londoners were hopelessly ignorant of
tho streets in which they stent tho best
portion of their busy lives.
"How few whoever stood orsoughtad

Mansion honso pictnred or thought of
thosceno of 1,500 years ago-ttho deep

by tho green bastion of a Roman fort.
The north wall and ditch extended east

er opening lay to the west for Watling
street, auother to tho north for Ermyn
street, and a straight road passed the
market plaeo in Eistchejp and went

"Tho one that answers questions." i
"What kind of questions'?" I
"Why, it's this way: We'vo got a
littlo bet, and wo have como hero to de
cide it. Wo want to know whether
theN was ever a United States ship of
war that camo up tho Mississippi river."
"Cruiser, you remember," put in the
other man. "Ocean vessel belonging to
the regular United Statc3 navy. That's
what we're betting on."
"Certainly. Straight United States
nav;rl vessel. Ship of war. That's tho
Let. I say there was."
"And I say thero wasn't. Regular
United States cruiser, now. That's tho
point wo want ssttled."
They had raised their voices to n high
pitch already, and tho man in the chair
referred them to tho files, and said that
if they would consult tho papers printed
about tho middle of last May, when tho
great Memphis bridgo was dedicated,
they would bee that somo kind of naval
vesbel had gone up tho Mississippi river
us far as Memphis anyhow.
They pounced on the files with tho
eagerness of a boy digging fishworms.

to his next neighbor.
"Yes."
"I can make him pull his watch out
of his pocket and consult the time
without saying u word to him."
"You know him, perhaps, and have
it arranged that he shall do so on a

"Xo. I never saw him before in my

"I have five dollars to say I can."
"I have a five to say you can't."
"It's a bet, is it?"
"It is."
The other man waited a few mo

ferred to fell on him, and then, with
much deliberation, he drew forth his
watch and looked at It.
The man aeross the aisle saw the
movement and instantly lifted his own

WOMAN'S WORLD IN PARAGRAPHS

tho Australian Itullot?
With all the intricacies of the Aus
tralian ballot system we shall need
presently to have young Americans in
structed in tho public schools how to
voto properly, and the teachers will bo
women. Graduates of Wellesley and
Vassar can tench tho average voter now.
At each of these schools the collego girls
have studied carefully not only tho Aus
tralian ballot system, but also tho ques
tions of state that occupied political
parties during tho 1892 campaign. Not
only that, but they actually voted in
November, these Wellesley and Vas
sar girls. At Wellesley the election
took place in tho collego chapel, not at
tho beer saloon on the corner. Tho
young ladies had their inspectors in
chargo of tho polls. Among them wero
members of tho Democratic, Republican
and Prohibition parties. At Vassar only
tho girls who had registered could voto,
Which they did nt the polling places in
tho corridors under tho eyes of tho in
spectors that had been sworn in.

meeting with any serious disaster or ac

that it took the arrival o the United
States gunboat Monocaey back of the
local officials to prevent a recent out
break at Nankin because a missionary
provided a Chinese boy with a glass eye
to take the place of a natural one ho
had lost.
The Chinese settlers on the island of
Sumatra have a strange and ludicrous
form of salutation. When they meet
each other, say after an absence of a
month or longer, they do not shake
each other's hand; they smile broadly,
and each grasps his own hand, shaking
it vigorously for a few moments.
