A Good Wife For Some One.
?
i A Kansas erirl trrndnnfe ^
had been assigned the theme, '"Heyon
d the, Alps Lies Italy," wrote
this essay:
"I do not cave a cent whether Italy
lies beyond the Alps or in Miss-!
ouri. 1 do not expect to set the
river on (ire with my future career. 1
I am glad that I have a very good
education, hut I am not going to
misuse it by writing poetry or essays
on the future woman. It will
enable me to correct the grammar
of any lover 1 may have, should lie,:
speak of 'dorgs' in my presence or
'seen a man.' It will also come:
handy when I want to figure out
how many pounds of soap a woman '
can get for three dozen eggs at the
grocery. So I do not begrudge the
time I spent in acquiring it.
"But my ambitions do not fly so
high. I just want to marry a man
who can lick anybody of his weight;,
in the township, who can run an J
eighty-acre farm, and who has no
female relatives to come around and '
try and I kiss the ranch. 1 will agroo v
to cook dinners for him that won't
send him to an early grave, anil
lavish upon him a wholesome af-:!
fcction, and to see that his razor has .
not been used to cut broom wire .
when he wants to shaVo. In view
of all this, I do not cafe if I get a i
little rusty on the rule of three and 1
kindred things as tho years go by,"^
DES? RUCTION OF SAN FRANCISCO.
Stupendous Disaster to be Shown
In Miniature at. the Jamestown
Exposition.
(ClIAlll.ks Fkkdkimck Stansiu ky.)
Norfolk, Va., May 25th.?The
destruction of San Francisco by
earthquake and (ire is to he made
the subject of the rttnst elaborate
mechanical spectacle ever devised,
I which is to he seen next year at the
i Jamestown Tor-Centennial, near
j Norfolk, on the borders of Hamp!
Roads, Virginia. The spectacle is
to he on the lines of the Johnstown
! and (ialveston Hood productions.
The New York man who controls a
! largo tract of space for amusement
concessions at the Jamostwn Tercentennial
Kx position next year
said: "Artists and photographers
! are already on their way to San
Francisco to get the material for reproducing
the disaster in miniature,
with fidelity of every detail. It is
probable that the spectacle will he
worked out. under the direction of
10. J. AllStili. thi> lunrliJi

| who made successes of the Johns!
town llood at the Buffalo Exposi'
tion and the (ialveston llood at the
'St. Louis World's Fair, hoth of
j which arc now at Coney Island.'
'From a showman's standpoint the.
| Frisco disaster offers great possihili1
ties and wc arc going to take ad1
vantage of them.''
Ti.e destruction of the great
American city with the miraculous
| escape of the hulk of its -100,000
; inhabitants, out-classes in interest
land dramatic effeet most of the
I great disasters in tin* history of the
world. The drama of this dreadful
event as reproduced in miniature at
the Jamestown Kxpo.-ition will
bring it before the mind of the heholder
with a vividness second only
to having seen the actual event.
In fact, it will give a far clearer
idea of the frightful ruin of a great
city in a few monn nts than could
possibly have been gained by being
present in the western city at the
time of its destruction. This is
true because it will be seen in its
; entirety, a thing impossible to tuns
; who was actually in the horror,
and it will be seen without the nat|
ural fright and min^araM^|^p|
Jamestown
Exposition the drama of ruin will
set forth with all the romantic interest^
that attaches to the history
of the last days of Pompeii and
Ilerculaneum.

Wo wish to express through the

thanks for the numerous deeds of
kindness that have been shown our-,

is that God may raise up friends for
each one as you all, from time to
time, will stand in need.
