WOMEN DECIDE A WAGER.
Incumbrancc of Skirts Shown by Prac?
tlcal Proof.
Two women well known in Vienna
were recently walking beside Lake
Geneva, discussing the latest fash
ions; when one of them suddenly re
marked that she wished she was not
obliged to wear a skirt, as she would
very much .like to bathe then and
there in the cool lake. A warm argu
ment followed, one maintaining that
a petticoat would not prove an en
cumbrance in the water and the other
insisting that no woman who wore
either a petticoat or corsets could
swim or even keep afloat for more
than a few minutes.
As neither j would give way to the
other, they,, "filially resolveu to test
the matter* practically, and conse
quently, after making a small wager,
they plunged into the lake. As they
were dressed.in the height of fashion
"their appearance in the water caused
a sensation among a crowd of tour
ists who were on the bank, and at
once the cry arose that they intended
to commit suicide. A minute or two
later half a dozen boats were on the
way to rescue, them, but the ladies
laughingly said that they required no
assistance, and to show that ther
were in no danger they swam out a
little way and then returned to the
shore. ,.
Theebine who had maintained that a
wdman's dress was no encumbrance
in the wMer then candidly admitted
that she was mistaken, and vowed
that In future whenever she visited
the lake she would dispense with her
corsets.-New York Herald.

BRAVE FIGHT FOR LIBERTY.
Russian Count's Vain Efforts to Es
cape Secret Police.
The career of the Russian Count
Nicholas Savin, who was arrested at |
Hamburg a few days ago on the in- |
formation of the Russian secret police,
reads like a page of fiction. Several
times previously the count, by most
reckless courage, had escaped from
his prison exile in Siberia, where ha
had been sent for committing forgery,
and each time he was recaptured and
extradited from the country where he
was found. His last flight, which has
just ended in hi:? arrest at Hamburg,
has given the Russian police ten
years' trouble. Thc count got away
from Siberia in 1S93. and succeeded in
reaching the United States. For five
years he lived undiscovered in Chi
cago, earning his living at various
times as wp.it.er. billiard-marker, cab
man and tram.conductor. In 1SS8 he
volunteered for the war. and fought
ewith great distinction with the Amer
ican troops against Spain. Afterwards
he went to Spain as the representa
tive of an American expert house. The
Russian secret police were meanwhile
making an incessant search and re
cently they located him in Spain.
When the count discovered that his
identit . was known he boarded a
steamei ~l Lisbon, bound for Ham
burg. Detectives booked passages by
the same vessel, and on arrival at
Hamburg persuaded the German au
thorities to seize the count. He will
be taken back to Siberia after the'
extradition formalities. The count,
who is 44 years of age, is the husband
of the French Countess Lantrec de
Toulouse.
Curious Prediction.
Nostradamus, who lived some cen
turies -ago, is well known on account
of his curious predictions, and now
his admirers claim thai in ene of his
celebrated quatrains he clearly fore
told the exact date of the death of
Leo XIII.
In this quatrain, as M. Henri Don
chet, a French occultist points out,
Nostradamus predicted that during
the twentieth century a pope would
die on the same day that "a hairy
star" vanished from tho sky.
M. Douchet maintains that Nostrad
amus had a comet in mind when he
wrote, and that the prediction has
been literally fulfilled, since the Eo
relli comet, which was discovered at
the observatory of Marseilles, van
ished from the sky on the very day of
Pone Leo's death.-New York Herald
The Prince and the Painter.
Swan, the animal painter, was re

"Mr. Swan," said the Prince, 'i

To eat a grape a minute for an hour

College Girls' Athletics.
President Eliot of Harvard does not
believe that women can indulge much
in- athletics without injuring them
selves, and condemns boating, putting
tho shot and such violent forms of ex
ertion for women.
"Women will never compete with
men's colleges in athletics." he said
recently. "1 see absolutely no possi
bility of that ever taking place. The
women do not seek competition, and it
would he of no benefit to them. Wom
ec were not originally intended for
such violent exercise as man. and
some of the things that they go into
must strain them. For women to put
the shot is preposterous.
"There may be women living who
arc made in such a strange and un
natural way that it is not lnjuriou', for
thc-m to put the shot, but (for the ma
jority of women it would be enough to
hurt them for life. Boating also is
bad for women. Women's colleges do
not have crews to any great extent,
hut the women who do go into it will
no< last long in their athletic life.
Women's athletics are a good thing in
moderation, but for them to try to do
all that their brothers do is a mistake.
They will only hurt themselves in the
attempt."

Feminine Footwear1!
Daintiness and grace are the fe?;
tures of the shoes and slippers that
maid and matron will wear on "occa
sions" during the gay season; Wheth
er for dancing or simply for afternoon
teag and receptions the high-heeled?
very high indeed, shoes seem to b?
the Ihing that shoe makers beguile
their fair customers into wearing. For
the meet part these are strapped and
many of them have huge rosettes of:
fluffy maline or flat ones of panne vel;
vet just at the tip of the arching in
step. Then, too, stiff, quaint rosettes
of satin sometimes are perched wher?
the shoe is tied.
Slipper and shoe this year match
the gown in tone, and the hose is also
always cf the same hue. In the foot
gear a little choice is permitted the
fair one. for the shoe may be of kid(
silk or satin, one being as fashionable
as the other. These may be plain or
studded with pearls, jet or steel, ac
cording to fancy. A great favorite with
the young woman of today is the
strapped shoe, many wearing those
strapped from the instep away down
to the edge of the toe.
The footwear provided for the wee
ones by fond mammas is just as
dainty ae these made fer the older
people. Great care for an artistic
finish is given to babies' shoes. White
buckskin Bhoes are especially fashion
able for the little tots who do not

Same ?rv Any Age.
"When I was young Ave bad a proper
respect for our parents," is an expres
sion with which we are all familiar
and if one were in the least
inclined to take a gloomy view
of things the parental pessimist
might seem to be developing at air
alarming rate, but "There's nothing
either good or bad, but thinking makes
it so," and if girls are being perpetual
ly told that freedom is their rightful
position, that they ought not to have
more restrictions than their brothers,
that mothers want "managing" and
"training." and all the rest of it, what
wonder if they begin to fancy them
selves always right and their elders
always wrong; and, again, when moth
ers and fathers are having it perpet<-;
nally dinned in their ears that the pre
sent system of education makes girls
selfish and insolent, that most girls
are unmanageable nowadaj's, they,
too. come to believe a large portion
of it, and, seeing through these lenses
the faults that are common to ali girls
in all ages, imagine the present gen
eration to be the worst on record.
Doubtless we do err in our preseut
lax system of dealing with young peo
ple, who, like young animals, need
discipline, and. when they come to.
years of discretion, are always grate
ful for having had it. But the spirit
of camaraderie which ought to exist
between. a:girl and her mother, the rev
erent love which the former should
have for the latter, and the unselfish
devotion and pardonable pride which
the mother should show in her daugh
ter, are not to be produced by encour
aging girls to air their "grievances"
and parents to blame their children.

TO MEET IN ST. LOUIS,
Selection for the Meeting Place of
the Democratic Convention
COMMITTEE SPRINGS SURPRISE,
It Was Generally Conceded That
Chicago Would Be Chosen, But
St. Louis.Won the Victory.
Washington, Special-The Demo
cratic national committee furnished a
surprise, selecting St. Louis as the
place for the national convention of
1904. The date fixed for the conven
tion was Wednesday, July 6, at 12
o'clock. Previous to the meeting of
the committee is seemed a foregone
conclusion that Chicago would be the
selceted place of meeting, but politi
cal extlngencies entered into the sit
uation and a majority of the commit
tee voted for St. Louis. For some
hours previous to the meeting there
was talk in the corrodors and among
Democratic leaders that the conven
tion in Chicago might be subject to
the influence of a strong movement
and a strong newspaper influence in
favor of some particular candidate.
,Mr.Knapp, of the St. Louis Republic,
hinted at this in a speech by saying
that the convention, if held at St.
Louis, would be welcomed by an ab
solutely fair press.
The committee meeting caused con
siderable discussion of politics and
the claims of various candidates were
advocated by their partisians, but
nothing favoring* any candidate ap
peared in the committee proceedings.
William J. Bryan, when the commit
tee had concluded its labors, appeared
but his viait was without any appar
ent political significance. He did not
come to the hotel until after the com
mittee had about concluded its busi
ness. He was warmly greeted by the
members of the committee and invit
ed a number of times by members to
call on them at their hotels.
The committee was called to order
by Chairman James K. Jones, of Ark
ansas, promptly at 12 o'clock. As the
members took their seats they faced
a raised platform back of which was
an elaborate festoon of flags, surroun
ding a large portrait of Andrew Jack
son.
The sessions were executive. 'Rolla
Wells presented the claims of St.
Louis. A written proposal was offered
to the committoe with a guarantee of
$40,000 and the use cf the Coliseum,
a fire-proof building with a seating
capacityy cf 12,000. The Business
Men's Leagie guaranteed hotel ac
comodations.
There were two rolls to select the
city. On the first St. Louis received
23 votes, Chicago 20 and New York
6. On the second ballot St. Louis re
ceived 23 and Chicago 21. The date
was fixed as July 6th, on motion of
Col. J-. M. Guffey, of Pittsburg.

j his own fortune is very great is hard
ly a sufficient defense against the
charge of fortune hunting. Although
an English duke could afford to marry
any one, it happens that he never docs
