SERVANTS IN 2,000 A. D.
Will Not Be NeededLabor-Saving
Devices in Homes.
The thread-bare servant problem
will have become a thing of the past
by 2000 A. D. Domestics seem to be
necessary nowadays to supplement
the deficiencies of some housewives,
and owing to the incompleteness in
the construction of many houses. The
tendency of modern apartment houses
Is to minimize work so that no serv
ants will be needed.
The homes of the future will prob
ably be warmed in the walls from
some power-generating station. Air
will enter through proper tubes in the
walls which will warm the house and
will capture the dust, and it will be
spun out again by simple devices.
Scientific builders are now planning
to do away with the walls meeting
the floors at right angles, as by
rounding off the angles between wall
and floor, sweeping and cleaning will
be lightened.
If a window is cleaned hurriedly
and left wet, it dries in spots, and
dirt Is left in solution. By the touch
ing of a button and turning on of
water that contains a solvent, water
would be forced down the window
panes from pin holes in a pipe above,
into a groove below, and this would
be followed by pure rain water, and
window cleaning would be done "sans
domestlques."
And within a few years, perhaps,
the French scientists will have fur
ther perfected the taking of nourish
ment and enjoying whole meals from
a few drops, or a few pellets, from
two to tnrw vials, thus doing away
with chefs, and the elaborate part of
0\E MORE CHANCE.
Final Hearing of Cass Lake
Tbwnsite to be Heard
Soon.
Special Ae:ent Nessler of the
Indian service, will soon be sent
to Minnesota to conduct a final
hearing in the famous Cass Lake
townsite case.
This case has been before the
department for several years,
and was decided last December
in favor of Mrs Nellie Lydick
and her two minor children,.who
tookallotments as members of the
\Vhite Oa Point tribe.
The land as selected was on
the site now occupied by a con
siderable porti on of the popula
tion of Cass Lake.
Senator Nelson petitioned dur-
ing the last session of congress
for a reopening, which was grant
edand-further evidence will be
take n. The settlers who have
been opposed to Mrs. Lydick's
Babbit to look after their inter
ests. I is alleged that while
Mr s. Lydick was once a member
of the White Oa Point tribe, she
severed her tribal relations with
that band of Indians some time
ago, and consequently, forfeited
her right to take an allottment
on the lands set aside for that
tribe.
Secretary Hitchcock says that
th is is the last time he will take
up the case. thinks that the
claims have employed Charles H.
opposition to the Lydick's, if it
do es not submit any new testi-
mony at this hearing, will have
to give up. But few of the squat
ters really object, and many of
them already have provision al
contracts with the Lydicks to
purchase the lots upon which
their stores, shops and houses
stand.

A LITTLE TOO LATE.
Belated Suggestions for Newport
Amusements.
Luckily the Newport season is near
ing an end. If it wasn't, if there waa
yet time, we might expect that in
their strenuous efforts to outdo one
another the society dames would re
sort to extreme measures. For in
stance:
One of them might construct a gar
den on towers and call it the New
Hanging Gardens of the Hesperides,
and then give a garden party with cap
tive balloons for elevators.
Some other dame could dig a canal
through her domain, with real dykes
and wooden shoes and canal boats,
and windmills operated by perfumed
hot air, and give a reception a la Hol
lacdaise.
Another idea would be to lay out a
section of the Garden of Eden, with all
the animals from some big menagerie
running wild behind a heavy wire
partition, and then call it "An Even
ing at Papa Adam's." with all the
guests in Watteau costumes.
A real cute scheme would be to
have a duplicate of the ark and give
a "Father Noah at Home," with the
guests assuming the disguises of the
animals. If the ark could be made to
roll a little so the guests would feel
qualmish, it would add greatly to the
amusement. Then at a certain hour
there could be a Noachian german on
deck with railroad stocks and gov
ernment bonds for favors.
REFLECTION ON THE JUDG
Ultra Piou6 Lawyer Drew Upon Him
self Wrath of Justice Gray.
Justice Gray of the United States
supreme court, who has just retired,,
had a long experience on the bench
before going to Washington. Many
years ago. when he was a member of
the supreme court of Massachusetts,
he had an amusing experience with a
certain Boston lawyer, an exceedingly
pious man with a taste for evangeliza
tion, who had his letterheads printed
with a verse from scripture in large
type following th name and address.
On one occasion, having to make an
ex-parte preliminary argument be
fore Justice Gray in chambers, in
which it would be necessary to dis
close certain parts of his client's case
which he desired not to make gener
ally known until the trial, he wrote
the judge a note asking that he be
allowed an opportunity to speak to
him in private. He was somewhat
chagrined when MB note came back
to him with a ecrawl across the bot
tom: "Request denied, with a sug
gestion from the court that counsel
base future petitions on a more ap
propriate citation."
For a moment he could not make
out the meaning of this, as he was
not aware that he had qjfioted any law,
but glancing up the page he discover
ed that he had written his page on a
letterhead bearing this text:
"Ye are bought with a nrice."
When a man follows the races b
finds himself far in the rear sooner or

In the Gooa Old Days.
The most memorable ride In Eng
lish history was that of Sir Arthur
Owen, which placed the Hanoverian
dynasty on the throne of Great Brit
ain. The act of settlement, by which,
in 1701, parliament elected the house
of Hanover to the British throne, was
passed by only one vote, and this
casting vote was given by Sir Arthur
Owen, the member of parliament for
Pembrokeshire. He arrived at West
minster, dusty and travel-worn, only
just in time to record his vote, hav
ing ridden with furious haste from
Wales for th purpose on relays of
horses kept at all the posting houses
along tfce route. To that ride Britain
