8 Tn AnswerfnS Advertisements Always ttLJ iIA sf / / )r- . * All UhJ v ir 7 3 It Is the little points in etiquette that me ofU'iiest neglected and that tell the world just what plane of social eleva tion a speaker has reached. These little mistakes are not mortal sius. but they impress heaven more than, some things that are counted sins. It needs only a little care to avoid them, ami surely it is worth while to take a little care always to lie right. A writer in Harper's Bazaar has this to say about every -day etiquette: "Husbands and wives in speaking of each other to friends and acquaintances should observe a certain formality. Vulgarity touches bottom when the personal pronoun 'he' or 'she' is used without the name for which these stand, and this usage, to be sure, being confined to out-of-the-way and primitive portions of the country, is never eeneral enough to be worth notic ing. You will hear the sun-bonneted woman with the straight skirt reaching to her stout calfskin shoes and the marks of life-long toil and exposure in her hardened hands allude to her back woods partner as "lie." or as "Tim. never as 'my husband." or as, "Mr. | Smith." But in the more refined circles, where people know and observe the require ments ot etiquette, a woman does not use her husband's Christian name.much less any abhreviaton of it, o utside the narrow confines of their common kin dred. lie is "John" or "Jack" only among his brothers and sisters or to very intimate friends. "When his wife lias occasion to speak of him to others she. says "my husband" or "Mr. Jones," doing the very thing as a matter of course which the person who is econom- j ical of nouns and lavish of pronouns fails to do. A wife who values her husband's dig nity will not regard it as of little mo ment whether she upholds this by scru pulously speaking of him with respect, as well as addressing him with courtesy, I his position in the social world being helped or hindered by her practice in this regard. If the man have an official title, as colonel, judge, or governor, doctor or professor, his wife wifi use that title in mentioning him in places and on occasions and in the presence of persons whenever or to whom this usage will be in good taste. Equally a husband invariably speaks of "my wife" or ".Mrs. Brown" when quoting his better half, as good hus bands so frequently do. She is not Mary or Jennie or Margaret to anybody ex cept her own people, and it is bad form to make the outside world familiar with her sacred home name. To children a father naturally speaks of his wife as your "mother." ami in affectionate fam ilies it is quite common and by no means improper for parents to address one another in the hearing of the little one as "mamma" and "papa." Every day etiquette is trampled under foot in grim and undemonstrative households, where the pleasant custom 'of daily greetings is unfortunately much of the time in abeyance. Where a grunt does duty for a genial good morning, or an inaudible murmur is all that is heard when there should be a tender good-night, politeness Is a plant of slow growth. Keep Kool.

Some of our foreign friends are in clined to make light of the women's share in the great Chicago enterprise. They say that much ot the "work"— literary, oratorical, artistic, what not— has been, not to put too fine a point upon it, and to use a phrase that the women ought to understand, taken from the oven a little too soon, and that the participants would have done better to wait until they had something more worth showing. Doubtless there is ground for this kind of criticism, but the pebbles seem to us to be thrown from glass houses. The exhibits, per sonal and other, made by the stronger sex, can hardly be said to be monoto nously perfect after their kind. We have a painful consciousness that a large, a very large, proportion of the speech and writings of males on the subject of the world's fair might have been better baked. Some of it might have been reduced to ashes with ad vantage. And there is another side to the question. It is not lo be denied that there is excellent work by women at Chicago -artists, decorators, archi tects, writers, to say nothing of less pretentions exhibitors. It is our judg ment that competition among the wom en, where a high level is attained by some, will tend strongly, directly anil permanently to raise the level of the others. There are women of impreg nable vanity and hopeless stupidity as there are men similarly afflicted. But wherever a woman of sincere purpose, wishing to do the best, and ready to work for it, sees other women's achievements of a worthy sort, she re ceives a definite impulse, an inspira tion, and with these guidance and help. The result, despite any failures or errors, is good, and sensible men as well as sensible women will rejoice in it. Ml For Hot Days fy'ear our Uuliued Suits. The Boston, un Third street. . Surprised His Friends. A special from Winnipeg recived in 6t. Paul yesterday created somewhat of a surprise to the friends of A. B. Wood, city editor of the Dispatch.

An Exceedingly Hot Wave Takes the Starch Out" of the People. It Develops Early and Does Busi ness steadily During the Day. Warm weather ofthe Fourth of July series was what St. Paul denizens had yesterday, and so hot that the chronic grumbler, whose bones are his weather indicator, announced to his neighbor that we have but two seasons— winter and the Fourth of July.. That the weather was unusually warm was in dicated by the light attire of the women on the streets and the men carrying their coals ou tlieir arms and giving every indication of feeling uncomfort ably warm. There were plenty of croakers to announce that it was the hottest they ever saw it in this country. The day began with a warm wave that came by way of Dakota, and as early as 9 o'clock in the morning the mercury had reached the highest point of the day, with the exception of 4 o'clock in the afternoon, when it was one degree warmer. At 7in the morn ing the thermometer at the observer's station registered 76 deg in the shade: at 9 o'clock it had jumped up to 93 deg; at noon it had dropped to 92 deg. and at 3p. in. to 91 deg. At other places in the city is claimed that the mercury stood at 94 deg in the shade at 4 o'clock p. m. The forecast last eveuing was to the effect that the fair weather would be followed by showers and severe thunder storms during the night or this morning, followed by warmer weather. Forecast Official P. F. Lyons gave out the follow ing bulletin yesterday morning at 8 o'clock: y7: '7.ry yy.: The heat wave that was central over South Dakota Monday morning has moved into Minnesota, and is now cen tral over the northern portion of it. The weather continued clear yesterday throughout both Dakotas and Minne sota, with maximum temperatures as follows: Moorhead, 100 degrees; Huron and Pierre, S. D., 93; St. \incent and La Crosse, 92; St. Paul, 91. At other places over Montana, and Alberta, Assinaboine and Manitoba, it ranged from 88 to 04 degrees. The storm that was central over South Dakota Monday morning has diminished in intensity, and is not of a menacing character now. Increasing cloudiness, with probable light rains, aud certainly lower temper ature is indicated for Tuesday evening and night. It's Time Now. It's time to wear our Cool, Light weight Underwear.

Page Brothers Win Their Ap peal Against a Lumber Company. Important Ruling Concerning a Company's Liability I for Accident. An interesting decision, treating upon the right of lumbermen to use naviga ble streams, was handed- down by the supreme court yesterday, and the court below was reversed. The case was that of E. T. Page and others, copartners as Page Brothers, appellants, against The Mille Lacs Lumber Company, respond ents. SBS^BiBi In the court below, where the plaint iffs rested their case upon the trial, the judge dismissed the same on the ground that the testimony introduced was in sufficient to sustain action. A motion for a new trial was afterwards denied, and the question involved came before the appellant court upon a bill of excep tions. From this bill it appears that both parties had been engaged in lumbering for several years on Bum river, a stream navigable for logs and timber. Both parties cut their logs on the upper waters and drive them to their respect ive mills, there to be manufactured into lumber. The plaintiff's mill is at Anoka, and the defendant's seventy five miles above, or at Melaca, so that the former's logs must be driven past the point at which the latter takes his logs from the stream, and the only prac tical way by which either could supply their mills with logs is by driving them down this stream. . The defendant constructed two dams just above its mill, at a distance of about a half-mile apart, to create a pond and slack water above each. In the upper pond so created piers were c instructed, together with piling and boom sticks. The booms for sorting were so arranged that sawlogs had to pass the men doing the sorting tor the defendant. The result was that all logs destined for a point further down the river were detained and delayed, greatly to the damage of the plaintiffs. The supreme court, in its finding, relates as below, and Justice Mitchell emphasizes the syllabus by concurring and elaborating, that he did so especially because it was the only highway open to the plaintiffs. Entitled to Kecover. First— A nuisance,- such as an unrea sonable and unnecessary obstruction of a navigable stream may be public in its general effect upon.the public, and at the same time private. as to those individuals who suffer a special and particular damage: therefrom, distinct and apart from the common injury. Second— Persons using such streams for the driving of loss must do so with due deference to the rights of. other parties enizaged in. the same business,, and in most respects such. streams are governed by the same rules as are high-., ways upon land. "•*. '....'--...... ■'.'' : - Third— Plaintiffs were engaged in driving logs of their own and, under contract, logs-, belonging to other per sons, down a navigable stream to their own mill and to market, having to, pass through defendants' mill ponds and by its mill, its booms and sorting' gaps. There was testimony introduced upon the trial tending to show that, by means of its ponds and booms and the manner in which its own logs were handled and placed in storage booms, defendant maintained a nuisance in its mill ponds and unreasonably and unnecessarily ob structed and delayed plaintiffs' driving operations. Held, that the latter had shown special injuries, differing in kind, not merely in degree or extent, from those suffered by the general public, and upon the evidence were entitled to recover. Liability for Accident, James C. Wilson, as Administrator of the Es tate of Snorri Benson, respondent, vs. Northwestern Mutual Accideut Associa tion, appellant. Order affirmed. ■■-..-. •-;.. Collixs, J. Syllabus: First— Where an adminis trator, with the implied consent of an accident association, adopts and relies upon the act of a third party who has filed with such association proof of a claim growing out of the ac cidental killing of such administrator's intestate, a member of the association, the latter will not be allowed to defeat a recovery upon the ground that it was incumbent on the administrator to file the proof himself, or that he could not, with its implied consent, adopt as his own that tiled by such third party. Second— Where ascertain alleged trade or occupation is not mentioned at all in a manual cr classification prepared and adopted by such an association, it is not classed an non-insurable. Third -Where an accident happens and injuries result to a member of such an association, the certificate being in the form of that held by plaintiff's in testate, a recovery cannot be defeated on the ground ot voluntary exposure to a danger contemplated by the parties. Nor is it a good defense that the acci dent was caused by the mere careless ness or negligence of the assured. Fourth— Held, upon the evidence pro duced upon the trial, that the jury was warranted in finding that the work in which the assured was engaged when fatally injured was part of the trade or occupation of a brickmason.

The Recounter Believes He Never Told Another, Because He Was Not Talkative. .•■ The narrator hereof.. knew the late Gen. Lee well, and passed through the war close by him. So far as he knows the following brief and, perhaps, not very amusing war story, is the only war story that he ever told. It is certainly the only, one that the recounter, who heard him tell it. ever did hear from his lips, says the Philadelphia Times. Lee was never a great talker except under one condition, and that was when he had young ladies to entertain, for then his natural gallantry got the better of him, and he was a charming com panion, though not what might be called loquacious, and he did not care to talk of the war, preferring to choose other topics. It was in camp, however, that lie so far yielded to the desires of a couple of fair visitors as to spin a yarn. He had invited two young ladies.cousins of his, to dine with him, and it was to them and at their persuasion that he told the story of the "Two Confederate Scouts." Carefully arranging his napkin on the table in front of him and sitting per fectly erect in his chair, as was his cus tom, Gen. Lee said: "When this war is over you will hear a great deal of praise given the leaders of the armies, and in the attempt to do them honor the private soldier will to a certain extent be over looked. This is unfortunate, since some of the noblest and most daring deeds of the war were done by privates on both sides. yy t~~ *■* "I was once in absolute need of posi tive information as to the movements of the enemy. My regular scouts were out, so 1 had to select from a regiment of men who were familiar with the section of the country, if not with their mis sion. Two able-bodied and intelli gent men were sent me, to whom I intrusted the dangerous task of crossing the river and going into the neighboring village to ascertain from stragglers the coveted information. They made the trip successfully and re turned the next noon, not only with the facts, but with the traps and effects of four Union soldiers, which they had ob tained in a manner creditable to the coolest and bravest men of either army. "After ferreting out the seciets of the enemy, they started on the return trip, but were detained by a terrific rain storm of several hours' duration, which forced them to shelter until night. When they -reached * the river they found, to their chagrin, that it was too much swollen to be crossed in a canoe, and the only thing left was to make a bed ot the pine tags on the ground and sleep until morning,.-, when .... they would proceed unmolested. But they .had reckoned . without their host. The enemy's pickets, who had also been driven to shelter by the rain, were out early next morning investigat ing.and, seeking fresh tracks, suspected something wrong. Five of them started on the trail, plain in. the sift earth, and soon came upon the sleeping scouts. Feeling confident of having their pris oners secure, they thought to have some innocent fun witn them, and proceeded to jab the back with the points of their bayonets and request tl e:n to como in out of the rain.

'Oh. stop that! What are you poking me for? It isn't time for reveille yet,' as if he thoueht he was in his own camp safe and sound. Just in the midst of their greatest outbreak the scouts, with the agility of wild animals, sprang from their couches and with their pistols shot down the two front men, then as quickly dropped the other two as the fifth man hastily retreated, leaving his gun behind him. "When the scouts heard the federal squad advancing on them they were too close to admit of retreat, so they resort ed to strategy and feigned sleep, ar ranging between them that at a given signal both should rise and lire on dif ferent men, taking them so by surprise that the others could be shot also before they could get their guns up. The trick worked perfectly, and to it those men not only owe their necks, but the valu able information for headquarters and four good Snider rifles and warm over coats.
