Congressman Tarsney returned from the political pow wow at Jeff- erson City last evening. He had been inspecting the meuth of the Osage river; and it may be ‘stated that the Missouri delegation to con- gress that got together at Jefferson City to talk polities did actually take a look at the mouth of the Osage. “We found said Mr. Tarsney with a smile and a lowering of the lid of the other eye. “that the mouth of the Osage river is larger than it ev- er was before.” Mr. Tarsney does not think there will be an extra session of the legis- | lature, although he avers the gov- | ernor did not tell the assembly con- gressman so. “The state will not lose the con- congressman, said he. “The last congress provided for the election of the cougressman from the state | at large in case a state given more congressmen had aot been redis tricted. This, however, was passed after the matter had been discussed at Jefferson City. There is, of course; nothing in the state law that anticipates the election’ of a con gressian from the state at large, but the act of congress I refer to is all that is necessary, and I think that a congressran will be elected that way. “Ido not think the thought of | being a candidate had any influence | with Governor’ Farncis in the ques- tion of an extra session. It was purely the question of expense,” and the congressman smiled again. “T think that if no extra session is | called,” he went on, “ex Congress man Stone will be a candidate for con gressman at large. If the state were redistricted it would be hard to make all the dis- tricts Democratic, but I don't think they should be; it is bad policy. There should be at least two Repub lican congressmen from this state. --K. C. Star. Pronounced Hepeless, yet sayed. | From a letter written by Mrs. Ada | E. Hurd, of Groten, S.

But why, may I ask, should ladies be dependent in such a degree upon gentlemen in this pleasurable recreation? ‘To be sure they can not all become experts in the art of rowing, but they may at least wequire the rudi- ments of it, and thus add an apprecia- ble amount of true and healthful enjoy- ment to their summer vacations. But how learn without a teacher? some may ask. Easy enough. Very few learn with one. A little persever- ance, coupled with a sufficient amount of contidence, will work wonders in the way of ultimate success. Certain general rules or precautions may be given which seldom vary, all of them being of importance, and, if re- mein}+red, aiding the beginner great- ly. re not, however, confined to aner, but answer for all who ng for pleasure. 1. When getting into a boat never step on 4 thwarts, as they are 1 : the bottom. 2, Never stand up in a boat. | Never change places with others in a boat when under w 4. Do not lean over the side nor rock a boat “for fun.” 5. Sitin the center of a thwart and endeavor to maintain the boat's equi- librium. 6. With hardly an exception the rower enters a boat last. seeing that those who accompany him are first seated The beginner will need a few definite suggestions that apply alone: (1.) Vor your tirst trial obtain, if possible, a flat-bottomed skiff, as it will answer your purpose much better than one with a round bottom, and it is not so easily capsized. See that it does not leak and is provided with two oars, a baler anda painter, the latter being a rope or ain made fast to the bow. (2) Sit upon the center thwart for rowing. (3.) Donot ‘ship’ the oars until the beat is shoved off, when, after your ed, lift one at i "s step on to him or her a time and lower easily to the rowlock. If the latter be fitted to the oars the conditions are much simplitied, and, though a little old-fashioned, the learner will probably make quicker progress than with the more modern oar, the latter to be used after the first few trials. (4.) Now brace both feet against a strip of wood which is usually provided in the bot- tom of every Loat for such purpose, grasp each oar firmly, see that all is clear ahead, and you are ready for your first stroke. (a.) Lean forward, mov- ing the body from the hips: dip the blades of both oars in the water so that they are just covered. and pull steadi- iy and evenly backward, or toward you, allowing the blades to leave the water when it is apparent that the stroke is ended and the effect passed. (b.) There is a momentary pause after ¢ stroke. and the tips of the oars in passing forward again should not be raised over three or four in fe.) The fault of ra ades high in air for every stroke. if once tired is hard to overcome. (5.) Keep close in-shore and away from other boats until you are no longer a novice. 1f careful and not easily discouraged, you will be most agreeably surprised at your progress, and the satisfaction and delight after- ward afforded will prove a great re- ward for the time and labor expended upon your early efforts.—Chicago News. —The antics of two young women produced a considerable commotion in arailway car that was just entering Boston.

The domestic life of the Amoy Chi- oese is admirable and detestable. The wife is not a companion, but a drudge. Unless she belongs to the coolie or boat- man class, her feet have been bandaged in infancy, so that her gait suggests a young boy learning to use stilts. Her costume is unique, consisting of four to seven blouses. as many trousers, hose and low-cut shoes. She wears no hat, and, in lieu of gloves, buries her hands in the folds of her long sleeves. In ap- pearance she is neat as a fashion-plate. Her hair, viled every day and sham- pooed every week, gleams like carved jet, her face shines from soap, water and friction; her clothes are spot- less and are brushed and ironed every morning. She is mild-mannered and courteous. But her ignorance is un- fathomable and her superstition a won- der. She burns joss-sticks at the door to keep away evil spirits; in the garden to scare mildew and parasites from her plants; in the dining-room as an anti- dote to poisons. and in the bedroom to intimidate the nightmare, burglars and wild beasts. She receives no company but a few women of whom her husband approves. She knows no men outside of her family circle. It is a deadly insult to ask a Chinese gentleman how his wife is. She is sad when her better half makes money be- cause she fears he will take an addi- tional wife or two and purchase one or more concubines. If he dies it is her duty, prescribed by a custom seven thousand years old. to commit suicide, so that her sons can erect a monument to their mother as ‘*a Virtuous Widow.” She goes nowhere, reads little or noth- img, sees no amusements and has no social pleasure. She never complains be- cause she has been taught to be what she is and no thought of change or difference has probably ever crossed H her mind. At times she catches aj glimpse of European woraen, but re- gards them with more contempt and/ deeper loathing than the outcasts of SELLS THE itchell, Turnbull and South Bend WAGON Ss.
