At the national party mass conven- tion held in Milan, Thursday of last week, a county ticket was placed in nomination as follows: Judge of pro- bate, William H.

The reason therefor s that the only living witness to the marriage of Mr. and Mrs. Cowell is :he minister who rnarried them and he wrote that as the marriage occurred some 30 years ago he might not be able :o identify them. The prosecutor thought the expense was not worth the while on account of the uncertainty. THE BUSY STORE. Joined the Newspaper Men. Ralph C.

THE LYCEUM ENTERTAINMENTS Six First Class Evenings in the Course for Only $1.00.

Somebody Is Prevaricating Officer Thumm and Will Gies, of Ypsilanti, had a troublous time be- tween them Saturday night in which both were hardly used. Thumm claims that he tried to arrest Gies for swear- ing and offering to lick any 200 pouud man in a crowd that was discussing the 16 to 1 gold problem. When he went to do so Gies raised his hand to strike him, and he knocked him down with his club. While kneeling on Gies try- ing to get the handcuffs on him some of the crowd kicked Thumm in the jaw and ribs and also stabbed him, where- upon he let his manget up and told him to go home. On the other hand Gies is out with an affidavit in whioh he claims that Thnmin struck him without any prov- ocation whatever, and that tbe officer never intimated to him that he wanted to arrest him. T THE STREETS Dr. F. K. Rexford, of Ypsilan- ti, Died Friday Last. WAS AN OLD PIONEER And Had Been in Business for Over 46 Years. About Ann Arbor Banks.—What Some People Think of Their Attitude on the Gold and Silver Question Nowadays. DEATH OF DR. F. K. REXFORD. A Worthy Ypsilantian Has Passed to His Reward. Dr. Francis K. Rexford, one of Yp- silanti's earliest pioneers, a successful medical practitioner, a prosperous bus- iness man, and one who had earnedfor himself the esteem, regard and respect of his fellow citizens by his upright, Christian life, died at his home, 111 Huron St., Ypsilanti, at 9 o'clock Friday evening after an illness of only two weeks' duration. Dr. Rexford was born in Cheuaugo county, K. Y., Aug. IT, 1814. After an early school education at his home he entered Fairfield Medical College and graduated from that institution in February, 1837. He shortly afterwards married and came, with his wife, to Ypsilanti in June of the same year, where he commenced the practice of bis profession, which he continued un- til 1850 when he, went into the mer- cantile business with Benj. Follett. This partnership lasted until 1850, when Mr. Rexford founded the busi- ness of which he was at the bead at the time of his death, and this business was located in the same place where it has continud for 42 years. He was postmaster of Ypsilauti under Polk's administration, was for a number of years a member of the school board and for six years was county superin- tendent of the poor. Four sons survive him. They are Charles E., Edgar and Frank H., of Ypsilanti and Dwigbt C, of Detroit. The funeral services held at the house Monday were largely at- tended. His remains wnre interred in the family lot in Highland cemetery. ANN ARBOR BANKS. Opin- THE SAVINGS BANK ARGUMENT State School Statistics. The annual report of H. R. Patten- gill, superintendent of publio instruc- tion, contains many things of interest to those not actively connected with school work. He says that the rural schools show especial improvement in clasification and grading as well as the quality of the teachers and attendance. The compulsory school law of 1895 has proved itself to be the most helpful school legislation enacted in years. About 400 districts in the state are now working under the free text book plan. The total number of school houses in the state is 7,835, their estimated val- ue being $16,760,822. The amount paid male teachers was $1,040,746; female teachers, $3,923,886. The total net ex- penditures for schools was $6,428,003 for the school year of 1895-96; 79 state teachers' institutes have been held, which have had nearly 10,000 in at- tendance. Please PAY SUBSCRIPTIONS NOW. One of Our Citizens Gives His ion of Some of Them. The Adrian Evening Telegram of Thursday, Sept. 24, had the following account in its columns ..of an interview between one of its reporters and a "widely traveled, intelligent Ann Ar- bor gentleman" the day previous: The refusal of some of the Ann Arbor banks to accommodate silver men on the best of collaterals, if continued, will likely result in the etablishment of a bank in that city that will treat all alike, and the result will be that the silverites will pull their money out of the gold banks, and they will soon realize how easy it is to cut the found- ations out from under themselves. The modern form of bulldozing people by refusing accommodations as a punish- ment for exercising the right of Ameri- can freemen to favor such politial pol- icy as they believe to be best, and the methods used this year by great corpor- ations to line tbeir men up and vote them for the Wall street gold standard, like so many sheep and cattle are driv- en tothe slaughter, is as reprehensible as the old time shot, gun policy of the south. While many laboring people, business men and clerks are frightened lest the money power close down on their employer and shut him up, thus throwing them out, yet when theyget into the booth they are where they can vote tobreak theability of tbe money power to thus control their franchise without fear of anyone ever knowing how they vote. The bank threat to call in their mortgages if free silver carries is simply a big bluff to scare the timid. They don't dare attempt it without pulling down the house over themselves. No bank that undertakes that scheme can keep its doors open48 hours." Prohibition County Convention. The prohibitionists met in county convention at the court house, Aim Arbor, Saturday. It was decided not to put a county ticket Inthe Held. The convention nominated as candidates for the legislature, from thefirstdis- trict, Joseph Doane, ol' Salem; second district, Geo. S. Hathaway, of York. The following delegates were elected to the congressional convention to be held at the court house, Ann Arbor, next Tuesday: M. W. Secord. O. R. 1J. Crozier, Wm. J. Bird, L D. Can-, J. B. Steere. B. J. Conrad, Chas. Boylan, Wm. II. Salyer, Rev. W. H. Forrest, Bert Schumacher. To the state senatorial convention, hereafter tobe called, the county com- mittee, W. W. Secord, B. J. Conrad, O. R. L. Crozier and Charles Boylan, were elected delegates. A movement is on foot at Manches- ter for the establishment of a cheese factory at that place Ashort time ago an attempt was made bythe farmers of the vicinity to organize a stock com- pany to run a creamery on the co-oper- ative plan, but it fell through for lack of interest. Given byaWashtenaw Silver Republi- can With Some of Its Back Actions. Banker: There are immense sums in the banks to day deposited by wid- ows, workingmeu and others and it will do them great injustice to have free coinage and repay them in silver. It would be robbing them of their hard earned savings. (Applies haudkercheif to eyes.) Farmer: Just how is silver going to hurt them? B. : Why, prices will rise, they will have to pay more for everything they eat and their wages won't go up nor their savings go as far. • F. : Can you tell me the compara- tive value of the real property of the country and just how the savings of the workingman compare with his earning capacity and which is the more important? B.: Really, I haven't the statistics but the deposits are more important to me. F.: Well, let it pass, but how are your deposits secured? B.: Why on houses, land, etc. P. : Just so, and when these become worthless and no man can make a cent where is your security and your de- posits? What would you give fora mortgage on a dead horse? B. (Chuckling): About as much as for one on a live one. F. (Rallying): Well, you declare for international bimetallism, isn't that in- tended to cheapen money and raise prices the same as independent bimetal- lism. Didn't that fellow Harcourt say in the house of commons that it would make them take 10 shillings on the pouud and that they were not fools enough for that, and how will that work on your depositors? B. : Well, you are intelligent enough to know that that plank was put there merely tocatch silver republicans and that if we live till we get bimetallism that way we'll dry ip and blow away. F. : I don't think much of that way of humbugging voters. B. : Politics is politics and you've got to saydifferent things to different men. F. : Yes, I have long suspected that you have a code of mora s a good deal different from that of comruou folks. But what is that high tariff going to do for us hayseeds? B. (Enthusiastically): It will start up all the mills, enable the manufac- turers to sell all their goods at high prices and pay big wages to their oper- atives who will in turn pay you good prices for your produce and the coun- try will enter upon an era of unpreced- ented prosperity and— F. : You make me weary, I learned all that by heart when I was kid and all the good times we farmers have seen the last twenty years or so haven't demoralized us, but say, if the prices of everything go up so, won't that rob the poor depositors and workingmen just the same as high silver prices? B. : No, they will be paid in good honest sound money, of the highest possible purchasing power, the best money of the world, gold. F. : Melt your gold and drink it. What is gold good for except to spend finally and won't those higher prices have tu be paid in gold too? B. : Well it's no use talking to you silver men ; you are so prejudiced that you can never be got to admit anything. F. : Oh yes, I'll admit it is a great hardship topoor depositors to be paid in cheaper money, but on the other hand do you think it just to exact from a debtor a dollar of from two to fou r times the purchasing power of that which he received? In what were most of the debts of the country contracted, in money of a higher or a lower pur- chasing power than the present? Do you think it wise to swell the value of English investments by discriminating against our own Bilver and in favor of English gold till abs <ntee faotory and mining lords drain all the wealth of the country into England just as that of Ireland is? B. : (Freezingly) Speaking of debts that little note of yours is due. F.: Yes, but wheat was so short a rop this year and prices solow that I just can't pay it. Can't you extend it? B.: We are forbidden to extend ac- commodations to silver men, but since you have done business with us so many years we will let you have it on ondition that you promise to repay it it in gold or money as good as gold. Now you see, my silverite friend, if there had not bfien all this agitation about silver we should not have been foroed to exact this contraot from you. F. (Sarcastically): No, suppose if the gold standard were a settled thing you would allow me to repay you in brickbats. B. : We must protect our depositors. F. : Yes, I suppose you are giving them papeis binding you torepay them in gold in case of Bryan's election. (Signs and exit.) B. (Solus): What the dickens ails the farmers. Before this they were al- ways content to take their ideas of finance from men who made a business of it and that old chap was always so still I thought he didn't know any- thing. What a deuce of a thinking he must have kept up. Well, if I can't tackle a rusty old granger without being done up in this style, our New York bureau must furnish me with better arguments or I'll have to shut my mouth.

Somebody Is PrevaricatingOfficer Thumm and Will Gies, of

Ypsilanti, had a troublous time be-tween them Saturday night in whichboth were hardly used. Thumm claimsthat he tried to arrest Gies for swear-ing and offering to lick any 200 pouudman in a crowd that was discussing the16 to 1 gold problem. When he wentto do so Gies raised his hand to strikehim, and he knocked him down withhis club. While kneeling on Gies try-ing to get the handcuffs on him some ofthe crowd kicked Thumm in the jawand ribs and also stabbed him, where-upon he let his man get up and toldhim to go home.

On the other hand Gies is out withan affidavit in whioh he claims thatThnmin struck him without any prov-ocation whatever, and that tbe officernever intimated to him that he wantedto arrest him.

State School Statistics.The annual report of H. R. Patten-

He says that the ruralschools show especial improvement inclasification and grading as well as thequality of the teachers and attendance.The compulsory school law of 1895 hasproved itself to be the most helpfulschool legislation enacted in years.About 400 districts in the state are nowworking under the free text book plan.The total number of school houses inthe state is 7,835, their estimated val-ue being $16,760,822. The amount paidmale teachers was $1,040,746; femaleteachers, $3,923,886. The total net ex-penditures for schools was $6,428,003for the school year of 1895-96; 79 stateteachers' institutes have been held,which have had nearly 10,000 in at-tendance.

One of Our Citizens Gives Hision of Some of Them.

The Adrian Evening Telegram ofThursday, Sept. 24, had the followingaccount in its columns ..of an interviewbetween one of its reporters and a"widely traveled, intelligent Ann Ar-bor gentleman" the day previous:

The refusal of some of the Ann Arborbanks to accommodate silver men onthe best of collaterals, if continued,will likely result in the etablishment ofa bank in that city that will treat allalike, and the result will be that thesilverites will pull their money out ofthe gold banks, and they will soonrealize how easy it is to cut the found-ations out from under themselves. Themodern form of bulldozing people byrefusing accommodations as a punish-ment for exercising the right of Ameri-can freemen to favor such politial pol-icy as they believe to be best, and themethods used this year by great corpor-ations to line tbeir men up and votethem for the Wall street gold standard,like so many sheep and cattle are driv-en to the slaughter, is as reprehensibleas the old time shot, gun policy of thesouth. While many laboring people,business men and clerks are frightenedlest the money power close down ontheir employer and shut him up, thusthrowing them out, yet when they getinto the booth they are where they canvote to break the ability of tbe moneypower to thus control their franchisewithout fear of anyone ever knowinghow they vote. The bank threat tocall in their mortgages if free silvercarries is simply a big bluff to scarethe timid. They don't dare attemptit without pulling down the house overthemselves. No bank that undertakesthat scheme can keep its doors open 48hours."

Given by a Washtenaw Silver Republi-can With Some of Its Back Actions.

Banker: There are immense sumsin the banks to day deposited by wid-ows, workingmeu and others and it willdo them great injustice to have freecoinage and repay them in silver. Itwould be robbing them of their hardearned savings. (Applies haudkercheifto eyes.)

Farmer: Just how is silver going tohurt them?

B. : Why, prices will rise, they willhave to pay more for everything theyeat and their wages won't go up northeir savings go as far. •

F. : Can you tell me the compara-tive value of the real property of thecountry and just how the savings ofthe workingman compare with hisearning capacity and which is the moreimportant?

B.: Really, I haven't the statisticsbut the deposits are more important tome.

F . : Well, let it pass, but how areyour deposits secured?

B.: Why on houses, land, etc.P. : Just so, and when these become

worthless and no man can make a centwhere is your security and your de-posits? What would you give for amortgage on a dead horse?

B. (Chuckling): About as much asfor one on a live one.

F. (Rallying): Well, you declare forinternational bimetallism, isn't that in-tended to cheapen money and raiseprices the same as independent bimetal-lism. Didn't that fellow Harcourt sayin the house of commons that it wouldmake them take 10 shillings on thepouud and that they were not foolsenough for that, and how will thatwork on your depositors?

B. : Well, you are intelligent enoughto know that that plank was put theremerely to catch silver republicans andthat if we live till we get bimetallismthat way we'll dry ip and blow away.

F. : I don't think much of that wayof humbugging voters.

B. : Politics is politics and you've gotto saydifferent things to different men.

F. : Yes, I have long suspected thatyou have a code of mora s a good dealdifferent from that of comruou folks.But what is that high tariff going todo for us hayseeds?

B. (Enthusiastically): It will startup all the mills, enable the manufac-turers to sell all their goods at highprices and pay big wages to their oper-atives who will in turn pay you goodprices for your produce and the coun-try will enter upon an era of unpreced-ented prosperity and—

F. : You make me weary, I learnedall that by heart when I was kid andall the good times we farmers haveseen the last twenty years or so haven'tdemoralized us, but say, if the pricesof everything go up so, won't that robthe poor depositors and workingmenjust the same as high silver prices?

B. : No, they will be paid in goodhonest sound money, of the highestpossible purchasing power, the bestmoney of the world, gold.

F. : Melt your gold and drink it.What is gold good for except to spendfinally and won't those higher priceshave tu be paid in gold too?

B. : Well it's no use talking to yousilver men ; you are so prejudiced thatyou can never be got to admit anything.

F. : Oh yes, I'll admit it is a greathardship to poor depositors to be paidin cheaper money, but on the other handdo you think it just to exact from adebtor a dollar of from two to fou rtimes the purchasing power of thatwhich he received? In what were mostof the debts of the country contracted,in money of a higher or a lower pur-chasing power than the present? Doyou think it wise to swell the value ofEnglish investments by discriminatingagainst our own Bilver and in favor ofEnglish gold till abs <ntee faotory andmining lords drain all the wealth ofthe country into England just as thatof Ireland is?

B. : (Freezingly) Speaking of debtsthat little note of yours is due.

F. : Yes, but wheat was so short arop this year and prices so low that I

just can't pay it. Can't you extend it?B.: We are forbidden to extend ac-

commodations to silver men, but sinceyou have done business with us somany years we will let you have it onondition that you promise to repay it

it in gold or money as good as gold.Now you see, my silverite friend, ifthere had not bfien all this agitationabout silver we should not have beenforoed to exact this contraot from you.

F. (Sarcastically): No, suppose ifthe gold standard were a settled thingyou would allow me to repay you inbrickbats.

B. : We must protect our depositors.F. : Yes, I suppose you are giving

them papeis binding you to repay themin gold in case of Bryan's election.

(Signs and exit.)B. (Solus): What the dickens ails

the farmers. Before this they were al-ways content to take their ideas offinance from men who made a businessof it and that old chap was always sostill I thought he didn't know any-thing. What a deuce of a thinking hemust have kept up. Well, if I can'ttackle a rusty old granger without beingdone up in this style, our New Yorkbureau must furnish me with betterarguments or I'll have to shut mymouth.

Vandals Have Chipped His Memorial InWestminster Abbey.

Near the center of the south wall ofthe nave is a monument to Major Andreof Revolutionary note. The very lopginscription upon it begins, "Sacred tothe memory of Major John Andre, who,raised by his merit, at an early periodof life, to the rank of adjutant generalof the British' forces in America, andemployed in an important but hazardousenterprise, fell a sacrifice to his zeal forhis king and country, on the 2d of Oc-tober, 1780, aged 29, universally belovedand esteemed by the army in which heserved and lamented even by his foes. "

About the base of the monument,which is a panel set against the wall,are several small figures. These projectfrom the panel, and represent the presen-tation of Major Andre's letter to Gen-eral Washington on the night before hisexecution. The ease with which theheads of these figures could be brokenoff has been too great a temptation torelic hunters, and most of the headshave been knocked off and stolen. Thatsuch vandalism is not wholly modern isshown from the fact that Charles Lambwrites of the defacing of this very mon-ument in this way in his "Essays ofElia." Southey, the poet, when a boy,was a pupil at the Westminster school.Later in life he was exceedingly sensi-tive in regard to his political princi-ples, and for a time a serious quarrelexisted between himself and Lamb, be-cause the latter, speaking in regard tothis injury to Andre's monument, de-scribed it as the "wanton mischief ofsome sohoolboy, fired perhaps withraw notions of transatlantic freedom."Then, addressing Southey, he added,"The mischief was done about the timethat yon were a scholar there. Do youknow anything about the unfortunaterelic?"

There is now fastened upon the wallof the nave, above the monument, awreath of oak leaves which Dean Stan-ley, when he visited America, gatherednear the spot on the bank of the Hudsonriver where Andre was executed. Al-though Andre died in 1780, it was notuntil 182] that, at the request of theDuke of York, his bones were exhumedand taken to England to be buried inthe abbey. The box in which they wereplaced for the voyage is still preservedin the oratory over St. Islip's chapel,where the wax figures are kept.—MaxBennett Thrasher in St. Nicholas.

Animals' Illusions.Binds are perhaps more commonly the

victims of illusions than other animals,their stupidity about their eggs beingquite remarkable. Last year, for in-stance, a hen got into the pavilion of aladies' golf club and began to sit on agolf ball in a corner, for which it madea nest with a couple of pocket handker-chiefs. But many quadrupeds are notonly deceived for the moment by reflec-tions, shadows and such unrealities, butoften ,';ern victims to illusions largelydeveloped by the imagination.

The horse, for instance, is one of thebravest of animals when face to facewith dangers which it can understand,such as the charge of an elephant or awild boar at bay. Yet the courageousand devoted horse, so steadfast againstthe dangers he knows, is a prey to ahundred terrors of the imagination dueto illusions, mainly those of sight, forshying, the minor effect of these illu-sions, and "bolting," in which panicgains complete possession of his soul,are caused, as a rule, by mistakes as towhat the horse sees, and not by misin-terpretation of what he hears. It is no-ticed, for instance, that many horseswhich shy usually start away from ob-jects on one side more frequently thanfrom objects on the other. This is prob-ably due to defects in the vision of oneor other eye.

In nearly all cases of shying the horsetakes fright at some unfamiliar objeot,though this is commonly quite harm-less, such as a wheelbarrow upsidedown, a freshly felled log or a piece ofpaper rolling before the wind. This in-stantly becomes an illusion, is inter-preted as something else, and it is a cu-rious question in equine nenropatoy toknow what it is that the horse figuresthese harmless objects to be. WhenRussian ponies first began to be shippedto Harwich, they usually objected topass near a donkey. This reluctancewas explained on the hypothesis thatthe ponies seldom saw donkeys in Rus-sia and mistook them for bears.—Lon-don. Spectator.

The Corpulent Bourbons.Wh«re does life Ducd'Orleans get his

fat? From the Spanish and NeapolitanBourbons, of whom he is unquestionablya descendant, even though Louis Phi-lippe were a Chiappiui. I cannot thinkof any French Bourbons, except LouisXVI, his sister Clotilde and PhilippeEgalite's father and the Comte deChambord and his sister, who were veryfat. The two latter were, however, de-scended from the Neapolitan and Span-ish Bourbons. Obesity has been an oftrecurring malady of the Spanish royalfamily ever since Elizabeth Farnesemarried Philip V. She was the heiressof the fattest Italian that probably everlived. He was a prince for a Barnumshow whose legs had to be propped upby buckram and whalebone cases to pre-vent them overlapping his feet. Fattydegeneration impaired the usefulness ofCharles III of Spain and destroyed theactivity cf the late Queen Christina,grandmother of the Comtesse de Paris.Queen Isabella strongly inherits thefamily failing. The Comtesse de Parismakes a brave fight against the heredi-tary diathesis by Bantingizing at Mar-ieubad and on the Aubergne moors,where she tires out all her gamekeep-ers.—London Truth.

Swinging the Arms.The queer habit men have of regard-

ing women as mysterious beings whoseactions and modes of thought are quiteincomprehensible was amusingly illus-trated recently by a writer who won-dered, through a column and more, whywomen, when walking, seemed embar-rassed about hov# to dispose of theirhands. The custom of the sex of carry-ing purse, card case, umbrella or othersomething was explained to be an effortto solve the question of what should bedone with the hands. Most peculiar, soit was averred, and very unlike thehabit of men!

It is indeed quite true that the sexeson the street manage their hands andarms after different fashions, but un-likeness in this particular is artificiallyproduced, as the wondering writercould easily have ascertained if he hadtaken the trouble to investigate. Menof high and low and all intermediategrades swing their arms as they walk.That beautiful, natural and comfortable

vement is not permitted to a womanor girl with any pretensions of goodbreeding. Don't swing your arms isamong (he earliest of the appalling longcalendar of "dou'ts" prepared exclu-eively for girls. In fact, among the veryawful sins that conservative people•charge against the bicycle girl is thatwhen off her wheel "she strides alongand swings her arms. " What she shoulddo, according to these censors, of course,is to glue her elbows to her sides and totake ladyliko steps. However, athleticsis likely more and more to claim thehomage of woman and it is more thanpossible that ere long convention willpermit her arms to swing as freely asdo those of her brother, and when thattime arrives one more woman "mys-tery" will be dissipated.—Vogue.

DR. MILES' RESTORATIVE NERVINEcures nervous prostration. Not mi-raculously, but scientifically, by first

removing the germs of disease, and thensupplying healthy nerve food, increasingthe appetite, helping digestion and strength-ening the entire system. Desperate casesrequire prolonged treatment as shown bythat of Mrs. M. B. Reed, of Delta, Iowa, whowrites: "As the result of a lightning stroke,the physicians said I had a light stroke ofparalysis, my limbs would all draw up. ID MUSS* would have throbbings

in my chest that seemedunendurable. For three

J-J A months I could not sleepKCSlOiCS and for three weeks didTTaoifVi n o t c l o s e my eyes. IriCd.UU prayed for sleep, andfelt that if relief did not come I would bedead or insane. I took Dr. Miles" Restora-tive Nervine and the second night slept twohours and from that time on my health im-proved; slowly at first, but steadily andsurely. I took in all 40 bottles, and I cannotexpress how grateful I am, for I am nowperfectly well, and have taken no medicinefor over four months."

Teaching Them English.The simple and effective method of

teaching English to the children of Ital-ians, Portuguese, Polish and GermanJews used in the north end schools ofBoston might profitably be adopted byother cities which are obliged to facethe fact that within their borders arethousands of foreign children who knownothing of the customs, institutions orlanguage of this country. A writer inthe Boston Transcript thus describes themethod:

The children, within a few days aftertheir arrival, are sent to the publicschools, as a rule without compulsion,and here they are first of all taught theEnglish language. It is done by a sys-tem of object lessons. The teachers inthe elementary rooms are youn^ women,as men would not be patient enough toaccomplish the best results.

The teacher may point to her eye andsay, "This is my eye," repeating it sev-eral times and requiring the pupils torepeat it in unison. Other portions ofthe body are pointed out in a similarmanner, and then familiar objects inthe room are in the samo way broughtto the attention of the children.• Later, when they have made sufficientprogress in the language, it becomes de-sirable to teach the different tenses. Toaccomplish this, a boy or girl is directedto run slowly round the room, when theteacher and children say in unison,"That boy is running," repeating thesentence several times. The boy is thentold to halt, and the teacher and pupilssay in unison, "That boy did run;"again, "That boy is standing still,""That boy can run," "Th'at boy iswalking," "That boy walks fast," "Ican walk," " I can run," "I did walk,"etc.

These and other sentences, as theyare spoken, are written on the black-board by the teacher, and the pupilswrite them on their slates. Thus theyare taught the language and taught tospell, read and write almost simultane-ously.

New Silk Waists.Now that the shirt waist days ara

over one would naturally suppose thatthe band necktie, so closely associatedwith it, would also take its departure.But this fall this chic little necktie hastaken a new lease of life owing to thepopularity of the changeable silk waists.

These waists are the present substi-tute of the cotton shirt waist and aremade in exactly the same design. Inaddition to this, they are worn withstiff linen collar and cuffs. They do notbutton down the front, but are made tobe fastened with studs.

The newest come in a variety of colorcombinations. Changeable golden brownand green silk makes an effective waist;also deep blue shading into a soft olrvsgreeu.

The majority of these silk waists aremade without lining, but for wear dur-ing the cooler autumn days they may bebought not only lined, but as stifflyboned as an ordinary cloth bodice.

The neckties to be worn with themcome in as great a variety as the waiststhemselves. The latest are of black,dark brown or deep blue silk, with aband of bright color near the end. Oc-casionally the band is of plaid silk in-stead of a plain color. Entire plaid silkneckties will also be much worn withthese changeable silk waists.

A novel feature of the new silk thea-ter waists is the unique way in whichthey are to be trimmed with buttons.The latest French models are madewith the wide crush belt, which is usu-ally of velvet and fastened with fivemedium sized buttons, eaoh button dif-fering in color and design. The effect,though odd, is exceedingly pretty if thebuttons are well selected.—New STorkLetter.

MISS KIRSINGER, THE CHAMPIONSWIMMER OF PATERSON.

The Hair to Bo Worn High—Woman'sFar t In the Kntional Campaign—WisoWomen Marry Late—Swinging the Arms.JCeiY Silk Waists—-She Does IS'ot Exist.

There were a number of men andwomen in Rauchfuss' swimming basin,below the Passsiic falls in Paterson,one afternoon about a fortnight agowhen Miss Maggie Sullivan was seizedwith cramps and uttered a shriek forhelp. The basin is only ten feet deep,but that is more than enough to drowna helpless girl, and several strong swim-mers did their best to reach her in timeto give aid. Among the farthest away,and swimming away from her at the mo-ment, was Miss Bertha Veronica Kir-singer, but the hand that first clntchedthe sinking girl and bore her safely tothe float was Miss Kirsinger's. Menwho had esteemed themselves goodswimmers had been distanced in therace.

This is by no means the only featthat has entitled Miss Kirsinger to beconsidered the local naiad queen. Sheis the only woman who has ventured tocross the falls basin to the edge of thecataract whirlpool, and a few days agoshe went through a test of endurancesuch as few amateur swimmers of eithersex would care to attempt. Accom-panied by two boats—ono containingMiss Annie Lister aud Miss Kate Far-rar, the other her brother, Alderman L.Kirsinger, and Eugene Levy—MissBertha started from Lister's boathouse,above the falls, to swim to Lincolnbridge and return, n distance of two

MISS BEBTHA KIRSIXGEK.miles. The course she was compelled totake to evade grass and weeds in thestream probably made the distance actu-ally traversed nearly one-third greaterand the current was sufficiently strongto make the swim to the bridge a hardone.

That portion of the feat was, how-ever, successfully performed in a fewmimites over an hour. Then withoutleaving the water she returned to thestarting point and was within less than100 yards of Lister's float when crampattacked her left leg and she was com-pelled to accept her brother's aid fromthe boat. She had been in the water twohours and fifteen minutes. From herpoint of view the achievement was in-complete, and she contemplates makingbefore the swimming season ends an-other attempt to accomplish the longswim without aid from start to finish.

Below the falls is her favorite placefor natatory exercise. Outside the arti-ficial basin it is 40 or 50 feet deep, andin one spot is popularly supposed to haveno bottom. Only the strongest, bravestand most self reliant swimmers venturethere, but that is Miss Bertha's favoritefield, its1 dangers mnking it the mostfree. Again and again she had tried todive to the bottom, but that remainsone of the things yet to be accomplishedby anybody but Tom Strong, who wentdown in July last and got the body of aman who had died of some kind of fitin the water.

Miss Bertha V. Kirsinger is a mem-ber of the Paterson Turn Verein gym-nasium and the best all around femaleathlete in the city. She learned swim-ming three years ago and took to theexercise so naturally that in five lessonsshe became an expert. Her elder sis-ters, Elvira and Anna, are both goodswimmers.—New York Sun.

The Kair to Be Worn High.Prepare to pile your hair high on top

of your head as a fitting accomplish-ment to the revival of trailing gowns.The easy and almost universally becom-ing fashion of a low, loose figure 8 willbe permitted for house wear and forthose numberless undress occasions cher-ished by all women who love comfortbetter than dinners and balls. But forfull dress occasions, for dinners and re-ceptions, for elbow sleeves and lownecked waists, dignified mountains ofhigh piled locks are to prevail. Thismode of dressing the hair has its advan-tages. The woman who indulges in itmay raise her inches by at least one. Itis the mode best fitted to carry bucklesand aigrets, feathers and bows, flowersand pins. It will appeal to many of thefair sex, while there will still be manyother3 who will cling to their own petfashion though all the world oppose it.

For those of the fair sex who chooseto continue on the old lines, the pompa-dour mode is the one that will be mostin vogue. It will be a favorite fashionbecause it is becoming to most faces.The hair may be drawn tight andstraight with good effect from young,fresh faces. For older ones a soft, fluffy,loose effect will recommend itself.

The style known as Victoria, broughtinto fashion and held there by thequeen, will be chiefly worn by old la-dies. Its soft, curling front, drawn soft-ly from a straight part on either side ofthe face, and dressed neither too low

no,- yet too high, but just where thebonnet will rest best and easiest, willappeal to most women who considerthemselves old enough to be comfortableand commonplace.

The soft, single, coquettish curl, fall-ing with apparently careless effect justover the right shoulder, is distinctly bor-rowed from Marie Antoinette's day.Charming accompaniments of this prettyfashion are the Mercury wings that fin-ish the side combs and stand out as ef-fective backgrounds on either side ofthe softly waving pompadour.

For the classic profile and low fore-head the long line of waving hair droop-ing low over the ears, just gathered ina loose knot, done how no one knowsexactly, with a rose crushed in at theside and a few leaves following the lineof the nock, will, it is to be hoped, inBpite of fashion's decree still prevail.~New York Jonrnal.

among Americcii v.< icu (o seemthemselves an. independent livclihcct}has made during tb< Ias1 two or tldecades are simply astounding. Notcan illustrate this better than the fol-lowing figures, which have reference tothe number of women in the UnitedStates in each profession in 1890, thefigures in parentheses being the corre-sponding figures for 1870. In 1890 therewere 4,455 female doctors (527), 337female dentists (34), 240 female law-yers (5), 1,235 female preachers (67),180 female engineers and land surveyors(none), 25 female architects (1), 11,000lady painters and sculptors (412), 8,000female authors (159), 888 female jour-nalists (35), 34,518 female musicians(5,735), 3,949 actresses (692), 034 fe-male theatrical managers (100), 21,185shorthand writers (7), 64,048 clerks,secretaries, etc. (8,106), 27,777 femalebookkeepers (none).

Last year 1,805 women visited theuniversities, of whom 34 left them asfully trained doctors and about a dozenrespectively as lawyers, preachers andjournalists. Of the above 1,805 femalestudents 28.2 per cent have married.American women, however, do not, asa rule, marry till they have completedtheir twentieth year, and of these 1,805as many as 887 were still under 20years. Of women who hold diplomas asdoctors, between 25 and 30 years, only32 per cent marry; of those between 30and 35 years the number of those whomarry -has risen to 43.7 per cent; ofthose between 35 and 40, to 49 per cent,and of those above 40 years, to 54.5per cent. From this it becomes evidentthat women who have frequented uni-versities, at least in America, marrymuch later than others. It is perhaps anatural result of this circumstance thatdivorces are virtually a thing unknownamong these late marrying women stu-dents.—New York Press.

Efforts are being made to get up ajunketing trip to Major McKinley'shome at Canton, Ohio, from this cityand vicinity. It is expected that fully600 will make the "pilgrimage" to thisMecca of modern republicanism.

We are not possessed of the ideathat the government can make some-thing out of nothing, but we do believethat an increase in the stock of pri-mary money means a depreciation inits purchasing power and a consequentrise in the price of commodities.

Mr. Farmer, has the cost of educat-ing your children, of supporting yourcounty, state and Federal govern-ments, of paying your preacher, doctorand lawyer decreased as your land andits products have decreased under agold standard? Lookup your tax re-ceipts and old bills and see.

The story that any candidate uponthe silver ticket is trying to increasebis chances of election at the expenseof others upon the ticket is a gold buglie. The silver candidates are all wooland a yard wide, and they don't needto resort to common every day republi-can methods to secure election.

It has leaked out that Billy Judson'splan of campaign is to hire democraticworkers against Lighthall in eachtownship. Democrats who want towork against Hi Lighthall for good,hard republican money, should applyat the sheriff's office at once. It willnot be a desirable job and they shouldput their price high.

Any of the Argus readers can obtainthe statistical abstract of the U.

They contain a fund ofvaluable informatinn on the questionsof this campaign.

A decline in prices due to cheap-ened methods of production is a bless-ing to mankind. It benefits all to thedetriment of none. But a decline inprices due to an appreciation of thematerial which is made by law—thestandard of value—is of advantagesolely to those who deal in money.Under its blighting etiect the debtormust suffer, trade becomes crampedand industry falters.

E. A. Nordman, the nominee of theDemocratic, people's union silverparty ticket for the legislature, is aworthy representative of the type of

well-to do and well informed farmers,who are a credit to Washtenaw county.He has lived for many years upon hisfarm in Lima, and enjoys the respectand confidence of all who know him.He is the farmers' candidate, and theywill not forget it on election day.

The suggestion of the Times, thatChauncey Depew be secured to advisethe people of this city how to vote, isa good one. Depew is the son-in-lawand successor to the Vanderbilt, whogave voice to the now celebrated sen-timent, "the people be damned."This representation of New York'saristocracy, who have ever been screw-ing down the wages of labor and in-Teasing their extortion from the pub-ic at large, would make a model ad-

visor upon matters pertaining to thewelfare of the laborer and the farmer.That advice would be received withthe same confidence that one treats thebusiness end of a Missouri mule, and;his too, without any disparagement ofDr. Depew's attainments as a scholarand an orator.

SILVER IN NEW ENGLAND.

Will some one rise and explain justwhat we want of British gold at thisuncture, or why we should be so solic-

itous of our national credit. We haveresources unparallelled by any otherterritory of equal extent. We have apopulation as energetic, resourcefuland industrious as any upon the faceof the globe. Rise and explain, if youcan, why the magic touch of Britishgold must be had before this popula-tion can enter upon and fashion itsown resources into wealth? The des-pised greenback fought the battles ofthe civil war and conducted the busi-ness of one of the most prosperous erasn our national history. During that

period we bought and sold at home andabroad, manufactured, developed in-dustries, increased in wealth aad pop-ulation and fought a stupendous warwith its consequent destruction ofwealth without the aid of gold. Mustwe be chained to it in an era of per-fect peace? As a nation we are sellersnot buyers. Would it not be betterfor us to be concerned about the otherfellow's credit than our own?

Mr. McKinley says that the impor-tations made under the Wilson billhave stopped American miils. Let usanalyze that statement. First, thestatistical abstract of the U. S. treas-ury shows that importations have beenless under the Wilson tariff than underthe McKinley tariff. But let that pass.It is not material. The question isthe influence that a few millions moreor less of foreign importations haveupon domestic industry. The value ofthe domestic manufactures of thiscountry is placed by the governmentstatistician at 9,000 millions per annum.The largest foreign importations since1890 is placed by the same authorityat' 157 millions, the lowest at 142 mil-lions. Both are less than 2 per cent ofthe manufactured goods consumed bythe country. By what perversion oflogic can 2 per cent more or less bemade to answer for the disaster thathas fallen upon the productive indus-tries of this country? It offers no solution. The true solution lies in theappreciation of the standard of value,which means a depreciation of allproperty measured by it.

FREE SILVER IN MEXICO.President Diaz, of Mexico, has writ-

ten a long letter in which he describesthe wonderful progress ot Mexico sincethe adoption of a financial policy in-cluding the free coinage of silver. Thegrowth of Mexico's commercial andindustrial interests has been particu-larly marked, writes the president.Our cotton and woolen mills have beenobliged to enlarge their capacity andnew ones are being established. Im-portations and exportations are in-creasing, and there has been nothingin the nature of a commercial panicconsequent upon the sharp advance insilver exchange. Failures are happilyrare. As to wages and the conditionof laboring men, continues Diaz, theycompare favorably with those of othernations. The demand for skilled laborin all branches is strong. The valueof our dollar has not been impairedand its buying power is unchanged.

Laborers Flocking to the Standard ofBryan.

Every city in the Merrimack valleywill roll us a majority for Bryan andSewall. The Sun is in touch with thepeople, and knows whereof it affirms.

From Lowell to the sea the Chicagoticket and platform are daily increas-ing in strength.

Up over the line in New Hampshirethe story is the same.

Since the Sun bolted Boss Hanna andhis candidate, McKinley, we have beenonstantly in receipt of hearty con-;ratulations from throughout New

England.Democrats are burying their differ-

nces, where differences have existed,and uniting in support of the ticket.

In Lawrence the gold republicansare in a state of indifference and haveas yet given no sign of life. Theylaven't even ratified McKinley's nom-nation, and the old-time party spirit

seems to have utterly vanished.The Lawrence Democrats, on the

other hand, have already held a greatmass meeting, listened to and ap-plauded George Fred Williams, andare preparing for a vigorous campaign

The sentiment prevailing among the18,000 or 20,000 mill workers in this citys almost overwhelmingly in favor ofBryan and Sewall and silver. Theydiscuss the great issues at the meetingof their labor unions, and in Lawrencethis means a great deal of intelligent:onsi'deration, as nearly every trade is

well organized.Bryan and Sewall will carry Law-

rence with a rush, enthusiastic, irre-sistable, overwhelming y.

And the Sun is doing all it can tocontribute to that glorious result.—Lawrence, Mass., Sun.

4 0 YEARS THE STANDARD.

THE REGISTER MAKES A DIS-COVERY.

The Ann Arbor Register has justdiscovered that the decline of pricesduring the past 23 years has been gen-eral. This is but another way of say-ing that the gold in which those pricesare measured has appreciated. If theRegister will consult the works of sucheminent statisticians as Zooke Ivetber,Saurbeck and Mulhull which may befound in the University library, it willfind that the general average of theworld's prices has always been con-trolled by the world's supply of metal-lic money. If the material which ismade by law the standard &f value isplentiful and easy to obtain, highprices will prevail; if it is scarce anddifficult to reach it will command agreater quantity of other things, priceswill be low.

Representing the prices of 1849 by100 the prices of 1809 were 160. Thedecline of prices from 1809 to 1849 isparalleled and explained by an average1

annual decrease of 35 per cent in theproduction of the precious metals. In1849 California and Australia began topour their golden treasurer into the lapof commerce and prices increased asthe value of money declined until theprices of 1873 were 38 per cent higherthan the prices of 1849. In 1873 far-seeing financiers, whose interests layin increasing the value of money se-cured the demonetization of silverthereby destroying one-half of thesource from which the stock of moneyis kept up, and prices again declineduntil the prices of 1893-4-5-6 havebeen about 15 per cent lower than theprices of 1849, the lowest previousprices of the century. It is regardedby economists as a fundamental truthin monetary science that an increasein the value of the material of whichmoney is made means a decline in theprice of all things measured by thatmoney. The re-establishment of theunrestricted coinage of silver moneyis proposed as the only effective wayof stopping the appreciation of gold.

AS EUROPEANS SEE IT.The delegates to the international

agricultural congress convened at BudaPesth, in Hungary, have sent Mr. Bry-an a congratulatory letter in whichthey wish kirn success in his struggleagainst the domination of the creditorclass, which during the past 23 years—these are the words of the agricul-tural congress—has secured, both inAmerica and in Europe, monetary leg-islation destructive of the prosperityof your farmers and others. AVepledge ourselves, continues the con-gress, to spare no effort to bring im-mediate pressure upon our respectivegovernments to co-operate with thegovernment of our great nation inrestoring silver to the world's cur-rency. We believe, that failing suchrestoration, the gold premium through-out all Asia and South America willcontinue to rob the farmer equally ofAmerica and Europe of all reward forhis toil, and that your election mayavert from Europe serious agrarianand social troubles now pending.

WHY GOLD GOES ABROAD.One of the reasons why gold goes

abroad when we have a balance oftrade in our favor seems to be gener-ally overlooked. For many years priorto 1890, English capital came here inlarge quantities for investment in rail-road and other enterprises. Since thattime, partly owing to the fact that therailroad field has been filled and partlyto the fact that the decline of pricesunder a gold standard has made in-vestment unprofitable, this stream ofcapital has stopped. When it stoppedwe noticed what we failed to noticebefore—that we were sending a largesum abroad annually in payment ofinterest and dividends upon foreigninvestments.

They Knew Bryan.At a republican meeting in Whitta-

ker, Saturday evening, there werepresent William Dansiugburg, JohnCampbell, S. C. Randall, H. Wirt New-kirk, Wm. Judson and George Cook.All were introduced to the crowd andwere perfectly delighted to meet yon,thank you. One of the speakers in themidst of his talk inadvertently happened to say: "Why, my friends, youknow William J. Bryan — "

"You bet we do. Wow! Hooray!Zip!" came the yell from a portion ofthe room that made one think therewere a crowd of Normal students therecelebrating their football victory overthe Hillsdales. That speaker willhereafter in his public addresses referto Mr. Bryan as the candidate forpresident, without mentioning hisname.—Times.

Silver Rally at Whitmor-e Lake.Whitmore-Lake, Sept. 27, 1897.

Editor Argns:' The free silver rally1 at the Clifton

house hall, Saturday evening, was agrand success. Old Nortbfield turnedout en ruaese to hear Hdn. J. NelsonLewis simplify the financial question,which he did in an eminently satisfact-ory manner and the liberal applause.which he received seemed to inspire thespeaker as well as the audience as abetter feeling audience never greeted apolitical speaker in this place.

Mr. Lewis gave us a conoise andclear understanding of what is forcingthe farmer to sell his hard earned pro-ducts at less than cost of production,and did it without any mud slinging.He showed us how it was that thebankers and corporations and the mil-lionaires were crying for gold, whilethe laboring masses were crying forbread. He explained how the bankersbought bonds to help keep up the goldreserve by going to the receiving tellerat Cur treasury and passing in his goldcertificates and gets his gold and thengoes to the other window to the dis-bursing clerk and passes in the gold hohas just drawn- ont and receives hisgold bearing bonds, and then he askshis hearers if they could see any per-ceptible gold increase in the treasury.Mr. Lewis had his speech just inter-spersed with stories enough to keep hisaudience mirthful and everybody wassorry whsn ne quit talking, althoughhe spoke over an hour and a half. Heeulogized the national, state andcounty ticket and the voters of North-field unanimously agreed with him.

After the meeting the expressionwhich greeted yon on every corner,"Wasn't that a corker?"" "That's theway to give it to them, square fromthe shoulder," "By gosh. I could listento that fellow all night," etc

On account of the sudden illness ofMrs. Cavanaugh we were sorry Hon.M. J. Cavanaugh could cot be hereas billed, but we anticipate the pleas-ure of having him here later on.

Doiv Florida Laivi Turtles Are Lured Outof Their Holes.

W. H. Gilbert, locksmith, astrono-mer, fisherman, scientist, hunter andcapitalist, is a great fancier of gophermeat, and has thought of many v;aya ofcatching the game.

Some time ago he learned that therewas a family li-ving in the northwesternpart of the county which boasted ofyoung men who could "sing" gophersout of their holes. He traveled manymiles to ascertain if the report wasreally true.

The young men were reluctant at firstto give an exhibition that might revealtheir secret, but Mr. Gilbert had anumber of pursuasives along and finalljthey consented.

The young men equipped themselveswith a gunny sack and a pointed stickabout five feet long. A half mile fromthe house, in the wire grass of the roll-ing pine land, they found the hole of agopher. They covered the entrance of.his tunnel with a sack and planted thestick over the tunnel. Then all of 'themen lay down about 20 feet away andone of them sang.

In a half hour the sack was seen tomove slightly, whereupon one of theyoung men jumped up quickly and ranto the stick, which he pressed deep intothe ground, cutting off the gopher's re-treat. The other reached his hand intothe hole and brought out a big gopher,•which was made into a delicious stewfor their dinner. Mr. Gilbert, discours-ing on the incident, says:

"I have since learned that the Mexi-cans, who are very fond of gophers,pursue this method, except that they donot sing. The singing is entirely super-fluous. Curiosity is what kills the go-pher, as it has killed the historic cat.The animal evidently is curious to learnwhat it is that has darkened the thresh-old of his abode and comes forth tosee. The stick does the rest. I havetried the same plan myself and verysuccessfully. "—Florida Times-Union.,

FORESTALLING THIEVES.Wliy Thomas A. Xklison Patents Every-

thing Ke Invents.As Thomas A. Edison watched the

pumping of the air from a glass tube inhis laboratory a day or two ago, a mansaid to him:

"You patent every little thing youdiscover, don't you, Mr. Edison?"

"I do," said Mr. Edison, "and doyou know why I do it?"

"I suppose you do it so you will reapJ&9.benefit of your discovery," was thereply.

" I thought you'd say that, " said Mr.Edison, "and I don't suppose you willbelieve me when I tell you it isn't so.Nevertheless, I discover a great manythings that I would be glad to give tothe public for nothing, but I don't dare.I patent these things to save myselffrom defending lawsuits. There are t\lot of sharks in this, world who are con-tinually on the lookout for new things,and when one of them hears of some-thing new he hustles to the patent officeto see if it is patented. If it isn't, heclaims it as an original discovery andfiles his claim. Then he will turn rightaround and, like as not, begin a suit•with the man who invented the thingfor making or using it. The inventor•will say: 'But I discovered this thingfirst. I am the inventor.' He is referredto the patent office, where he finds theofficial claim of original invention. Thefact that the papers are filed long afterJie made his discovery does not helphim, for all the other man does is to hirea fellow to swear that he made the dis-covery a month or two prior to the datethe inventor claims. It sounds ridicu-lous, probably, but it is a fact that thereare often races between the inventorsand the sharks to reach the patentoffice, the sharks having had early in-formation about the inventor's discov-ery. There are many such races andthousands of dollars depend on eachone. What I say is literally true."—New Ideas.

j The Belief Societies Appear to Have For-gotten That the People Escaped fromTurkey Without Weans and Are NowHomeless and Hungry—Feunilness Un-fortunates Actually Starving WhileWaiting for Help.

Marseilles, Sept. 29.—[Copyrighted,1S96, by the Associated Press.]—Thereexists a condition of affairs in this citywhich is a disgrace to Europe and tothe Armenian associations generallythroughout the world. Subsisting upongovernment, municipal or private char-ity here are 500 unfortunate Armen-ians, men, women and children, youngand old, healthy and sick, who havesucceeded in escaping from the bloodymassacres at Constantinople and whowere one and all buoyed up by thehope on landing here of being ableeventually to reach the land of free-dom, the United States. But weekshave already elapsed and nothing def-inite "appears, to have been done fortheir relief, much less toward findingthem homes, by any of the many asso-ciations for the relief of the sufferingArmenians which have been organizedin England and America. These un-fortunates, however, ' seem to be thevery class to which the hand of char-ity should be first extended. They- arehomeless, nearly all are penniless,manyare enduring the pangs, of hunger, andyet nobody seems willing to step inand guide this band of refugees tosome place where they can begin lifeanew and under more promising cir-cumstances.

No Friends in the World.Large amounts of money have been

raised in the past for the destitute Ar-menians in Armenia, but the situationof the latter is not a whit worse thanthat of the half-starving people here,if as bad. The Armenians in Armeniacertainly had their co-religionists andfellow countrymen to fall back upon,but the poor people here seem to haveno friends in the wide world, yet theyare as honest and industrious a class asyou can rind on the shores of the Medi-terranean.

Some South American speculators, itis true, taking advantage of this de-plorable situation, have prevailed upon300 of the refugees to allow themselvesto be transported to the Argentine re-public, there, in all probability, tomeet the fate of thousands ofthe Hebrews o£ Russia who, thanks tothe philanthropy of the late BaronHirsch, emigrated to South America,only to find themselves, figurativelyspeaking, tossed from the frying paninto the fire. It is true that the cli-mate of Argentina is said to be morehealthy than that of the regions thepoor Hebrews tried to settle in. Butthe end is likely to be the same inthe case of the Armenian refugees, whoare not a class of people likely to thrivein roughly founded colonies.

Few Able to Get Away.Only about eighteen of the 800 Ar~

menians who reached here have as yetbeen able to start for the United States.These few emigrants are of the bet-ter clas of Armenians; they are fairlywell equipped with funds and will prob-ably start for New York via Southamp-ton. But what is to be done with theremaining unfortunate Christians, flee-ing from blood-stained Turkey, whoare living on charity here with theireyes turned longingly toward the Uni-ted States? It would seem that thesepoor people may be barred fromreaching the United States and theymay be forbidden to land there, evenif they succeed in obtaining transpor-tation. Surely, if there ever was a casein which iron rules, necessary no doubt,might be relaxed, it is in the case ofthese stricken people flying from thepersecutions and butcheries that haveprevailed in their own land. There ismaterial here for the foundation of astrong American colony, and it wouldappear that there must be some spot onearth where these victims of the blood-thirstiness and misgovernment of Ab-

jdul Hamid, Sultan of Turkey—who, ac-| cording to generally credited reports,j must have caused the massacre of some! 50,000 Christians during the last fewyears—can earn an honest living.

The candi-dates were each with party friendswhen the agreement was made and ittook so well that about forty Demo-crats and Republicans are now pairedin the friendly demonstration.

PORTER IS SELECTED.

Candidate) for Governor on the New YorhDemocratic Ticket.

New York, Sept. 29.—The Democraticstate committee met Monday night inthis city to hear the report of the com-mittee appointed to notify the nomi-nees of the recent Buffalo state con-vention. There was a full attendanceby the members in person or by proxy,but Senator Hill was not present.

The meeting of the committee hadbeen delayed an hour by caucuses, sowhen the .report was made there, asabove, there was little' delay in theproceedings. In these caucuses it wasagreed that the man to be named inplace of Mi-. Thacher should be W. F.Porter, the nominee for lieutenant gov-ernor, and in his place Fred C. Schraubof Lewis county, should be named forlieutenant governor. The nomina-tions were made unanimous. Mr.Schraub came before the committeeand made a short speech pledging him-self to the Chicago platform and ticketand accepted the nomination.

Head Found in a R.ver and the Body in aRavine.

Pittsburg, Sept. 29.—Two weeks agothe headless body of a man was foundin the Monongahela river, near Eliza-beth, and Monday the head and cloth-ing of the man were found buried in aravine near where the body was discov-ered. The head was in a well-pre-served state, and the "coroner and de-tectives have been using every effort tolearn the identity of the man and lo-cate the murderer. These officials havetraced a decided resemblance of thefeatures to those of Parry Lee Downs,a defaulter from Baltimore, whose pict-ure and description has been in thehands of the police authorities for sometime. Downs, who was wanted in Bal-timore tor swindling some concernthejre of quite a sum of money, andstealing another man's wife, is knownto have come to this city. The offi-cials have not positively identified thebody as that of Downs, but the headanswers the description very closelyand communication has been openedwith the Baltimore authorities to se-cure, if possible, more positive proof.

Dr. Miles' Nerve Plasters for Rheumatism.

Look after the Back: A Fall, aStrain, a Constant Sitting orStooping Position Brings

Backache—Do Ton KnowThis Means the Kid-

neys are Affected 1How few people realize when their back

begins to ache that it is a warning pro-Wed by nature to tell you that the kid-

neys are not working properly. You havei severe fall, you strain yourself lifting orperhaps you arc compelled to maintain asitting or stooping position for long inter-vals at a time, your back begins to ache,then your head, you become listless, tiredand weary, but do you understand theeal cause? We think not, else you would

not use plasters and liniment on the back,which only relieve but do not reach thecause. If you would rid yourself of thepain and cure the root of the trouble, atthe same time save many years of suffer-ing and perhaps life itself, you will take akidney remedy that has been tried andproven that it will cure.

Mr. John Robsoin of 661 Russell Street,Detroit, says: "As a result of exposureduring the war I have suffered eversince with rheumatism and kidney trouble.Pains would start in my hip and goaround to my back. Highly coloredurine denoted kidney disorder. The painin my back was often so bad I had to giveup work until the severity of the attackpassed away. I have used many linimentsand other things, but received very littlerelief. Some time ago I started usingDoan's Kidney Pills and they have workeda wonderful change in me. My back isall right now and I owe it all to the almostmagical influence of Doan's Kidney Pills."

Mr. Robsoin was a member of the Fifty-first Illinois Regiment, which servedthrough the war with honor and distinc-tion. Doan's Kidney Pills are for sale byall dealers — price, 50 cents.

'STONE OF SCONE."The Enterprising Schoolboy Who Slept In

the Coronation Chair.It is a long walk from the dining

room of the Westminster school to thecoronation chair, which stands behindthe old stone screen just back of thealtar in the abbey, but there is an in-teresting collection between the two.This chair, as is well known, is a rude,heavy oak chair, much worn by time.It contains the "Stone of Scone" andwas made by the order of Edward I in1297, and every English sovereign sincethen has sat in it to be crowned.

A stout railing in front of the chairrestrains the crowd of visitors fromcoming near, but if they were allowedto examine it as closely as I was for-tunate enough to do they would -findcut boldly into the solid oak seat insuch sprawling letters as the school-boy's knife makes upon his desk, "P.Abbott slept in this chair Jan. 4, 1801."P. Abbott, it seems, was a Westminsterschoolboy, and a tradition, which thereis everyreason to believe is true, tellsthat he made a wager with a school- ,mate that he dare stay in the abbey allnight alone.

In order to win his wager he hid insome corner of the old building untilthe doors were locked for the night andthus was left alone there. Fearing,however, that when morning came theboy with whom he had made the betwould disbelieve his statement that hehad won it, he determined to havesome proof of the fact, and so spant thehours of the early morning in carvingon the coronation chair the sentencewhich, even now, nearly a century aft-er, bears witness for him. It is disap-pointing that the tradition does notrecord just what form and amount ofpunishment was visited upon the ladfor his~escapade, and that history doesnot tell us of his later years. I wonderwhether the courage and grit whichthis deed manifested foretold an ener-getic, successful life or was dissipatedin mere bravado.—Max Bennett Thrash-er in St. Nicholas.

PUMICE STONE.Thirty Merchants Are Engaged In the

Trade on the Island of Lipari.Pumice, as is well known, is of vol-

canic origin, being a trachytic lavawhich has been rendered light by theescape of gases when in a molten state.It is found on most of the shores of theTyrhenian sea and elsewhere, but i9 atpresent almost exclusively obtainedfrom the little island of Lipari. Most ofthe volcanoes of Lipari have ejectedpumaceous rocks, but the best stone isall the product of one mountain, MonteChirica, nearly 2,000 feet in height,with its two accessory craters. The dis-trict in which the pumice is excavatedcovers an area of three square miles. Ithas been calculated that about 1,000hands are engaged in this industry, 600of whom are employed in extricatingthe mineral.

Pumice ia brought to the surface inlarge blocks or in baskets and is carriedthus either to the neighboring villageor to the seashore to be taken there inboats. The supply is said to be prac-tically inexhaustible. Pumice is usednot merely for scouring and cleansingpurposes, but also for polishing in nu-merous trades, hence the fact that thepowdered pumice exported exceeds inweight the block pumice. Between 20and 30 merchants are engaged in thepumice trade on the island.—LondonNews.

EFFECT OF HEAT.

Th« Human System Can Become Used toa High Temperature.

No one can tell how high a tempera-ture man can endure until he is sub-jected to the trial. The effect of an in-tensely heated atmosphere in causingdeath has been but little studied."Some years since," says Dr. Taylor,the eminent jurisprudent, "I was con-sulted in one case in which the captainof a steam vessel was charged withmanslaughter for causing a man to belashed within a short distance of thestokehole of the furnace. The man diedin a few hours, apparently from the ef-fects of his exposure. Yet the enginerooms of steamers in the tropios havebeen observed to have a temperature ashigh as 140, and engineers after a timebecome habituated to this excessiveheat without appearing to suffer ma-terially in health. In certain manufac-tories the body appears to acquire apower by habit of resisting these hightemperatures. Still, it has been provedthat many suffer severely.

"In a report on the employment ofchildren (London) it is stated that in aglass manufactory a thermometer heldclose to a boy's head stood at 130 de-grees, and as the inspector stood nearto observe the instrument his hat ac-tually melted out of shape. Anotherboy had his hair singed by the heatand said that his clothes were some-times singed, too, while a third workedin a temperature no less than 150 de-grees. Amid this tremendous heat theycarry on work which requires their con-stant attention. They are incessantlyin motion."

In the Turkish baths higher temper-atures than this have been noted, butthere is reason to believe that serioussymptoms have been occasionally pro-duced in persons unaccustomed to them,and that in one or two cases death hasresulted. All sudden changes from alow to a high temperature are liable tocause death in aged persons or in thosewho are suffering from organic diseases.In attempting to breathe air 'heated totemperatures varying from 180 to 200degrees there is a sense of suffocation,with a feeling of dizziness and othersymptoms indicative of an effect on thebrain, and the circulation is enormous-ly quickened. An inquest was held onthe body of a stoker of an ocean steam-ship. He had been by trade a grocer and•was not accustomed to excessive heat.While occupied before the engine fur-nace he was observed to fall suddenlyon the floor in a state of insensibility.When carried on deck, it was found he•was dead. All that was discovered on apostmortem examination was an effu-sion of serum into the ventricles of thebrain. It has now become one of therecognized causes of death in this coun-try. In some cases a person may sinkand die from exhaustion or symptomsof cerebral disturbance may continue foisorfe time and the case ultimately provefatal.

Death from sunstroke, when it is notimmediately fatal, is preceded by some•well marked symptoms, such as weak-ness, giddiness, headache, disturbedvision, flushing of the face, followed byoppression and difficulty of breathing,and in some cases stupor, passing intoprofound coma. The skin is dry andhot, and the heat of the body is muchgreater than natural.

Walk slowly aud don't fret, and youwill not experience anything of thatsort.—Philadelphia Times.

WEDDED TO MRS. EDITH RANDOLPH

The Ceremony Performed at Bar Harbor,Me., by Rev. C. S. Leffln, Only a Few In-timate Friends of the Couple Being Pres-ent—Announcement of the Marriage Nota Surprise to New York Society—Some-thing About the Couple.New York, Sept. 29.—At 12:30 o.'clock

Tuesday afternoon the marriage ofWilliam C. Whitney, former secretaryof the navy, and Mrs. Edith S. Ran-dolph was celebrated in the Church ofSainte Sauver, at Bar Harbor, Me.Rev. C. S. Leffln acted as the officiat-ing clergyman. Only a few intimatefriends were present, it being Mr. Whit-ney's wish that the wedding be a quietone, because of the recent death ofSenator Henry B. Payne of Ohio, whowas the late Mrs. Whitney's father.Frederick May, the bride's brother.gaveher away. Breakfast in Mrs. Ran-dolph's residence followed the cere-mony. Among those who attendedwere Mr. and Mrs. Frederick Gebhart,Mr. and Mrs. Bowler, John Morris, MissNielson, and the relatives of the bride,including her mother, Mrs. May; hersisters, Mrs. Beaver Webb and Mrs.Carrie Wright. Mr. and Mrs. HenryPayne Whitney were not able to at-tend.

Marriage Not a Surprise.The honeymoon will be spent at Bar

Harbor, because of Mr. Whitney's illhealth. He went to Bar Harbor fromNewport, R. I., two weeks ago. Hehad been suffering quite severely fromrheumatism, but has improved greatly,since his arrival. The announcementthat Mr. Whitney was to marry Mrs.Randolph was by no means a surpriseto New York society. A rumor of theirengagement has cropped up frequent-ly—in fact, almost monthly—for thelast two years, to be denied as fre-quently. Mrs. Randolph, formerly MissEdith May, is one of the daughters ofthe late Dr. "Frederick May, for manyyears a resident of New York. Abouttwenty years ago she married CaptainArthur Randolph of the British navy,a brilliant and accomplished man.Two sons were born to them. CaptainRandolph died about ten years ago.Mrs. Randolph is a brilliantly hand-some woman, a brunette, with an un-usually clear complexion. She is a de-votee of music, and during the operaseason has been most constant in herattendance, generally in company withher cousin, Mrs. William Jay, and herIntimate friend, Mrs. William Douglas.She is a cousin of Herman Oelrichsand Charles Oelrichs.

Lived in New York for Years.Her sisters are Mrs. William Wright,

formerly Miss Carrie May, and Mrs.J. Beaver, formerly Miss Alice May.She has lived at 147 East Fortiethstreet, New York, for several years.William C. Whitney has long occupieda prominent position in politics andfinancial circles. He was born in-Con-way, Mass., July 5, 1841, and is a de-scendant in the eighth generation fromJohn Whitney, an English puritan, whosettled in Massachusetts in 1635. Onhis mother's side he is a descendantof William Bradford, governor of Ply-mouth colony. His father was Briga-dier General James Scollay AVhitney, asuccessful railroad and steamship linefounder of Boston, where he held sev-eral public offices. Mr. Whitney grad-uated from Yale college in 1863, andfrom the Harvard university law schoola year later. He then began the prac-tice of law in this city. Later he en-tered politics and in 1885 he was ap-pointed secretary of the navy byPresident Cleveland.

New York. Sept. 29.—Rumors, well-defined and backed by good authority,are to the effect that Chauncey M. De-pew will marry Miss Edith Collins, hisward, in October. This is the first timethe report, so frequently circulated, hasbeen confirmed, and it is generally be-lieved the wedding day has been set.

Mr. Depew declines to deny or affirm.His smile, whenever the subject of hismarriage is approached, can be inter-preted as meaning "yes" or "no." MissCollins is a great-granddaughter of oldCommodore Vanderbilt, and is an ex-tremely distant relative of Mr. Depew.Mr. Depew has been her guardian formany years. She is said to be wealthy.She "is about 25 years old, with blackhair and black eyes, and is tall andplump. _ _ _

SCENE OF PANDEMONIUM ENSUES.

Some of the Woman Bettors Faint and Oth-ers Scream nnd Tie Handkerchiefs OverTheir Faces—Arrested Women WereProminent in Society and Wore Silks audDiamonds—What the Officers Discoveredin the House They Raided.Chicago, Sept. 29.—A woman's pool

room was discovered and raided bythe police Monday .afternoon. Several

j women, all said to be members of southI side society and attired in silk cloth-. ing and wearing diamonds, were ar-i rested, together with a colored boy and! an inspector for the Western Union| Telegraph company. When the policei broke into the pool room in the build-i ing at 351 Thirty-third street, the oc-i cupants were busily engaged examin-I Ing the entry cards at Oakley, Windsor,St. Louis and the Ideal park racetracks, and in placing bets. With theappearance of the police the room be-came a scene of pandemonium. Someof the women fainted. Othersscreamed, and tied handkerchiefs overtheir faces. The women all gave fic-titious names.

What the Officers Found.The proprietress of the house gave

her name as Gussie McKee. She liveson the third floor. On the secondflotfr the invaders found both tickersand telephones, which are said to haveconnections with the sources of rac-ing news. These were confiscated.

The raid was made by DetectivesMcCarthy, McGuire, Landeck andBurke of the Stanton avenue policestation. Lieutenant Bonfield says hehas for some time imagined what wasgoing on within the quiet-lookingdwelling. He appointed officers tolook after the matter, and they gath-ered what they considered sufficient ev-idence to justify a raid. Consequentlya warrant was secured and a call madeupon the place. And officers say theydid not encounter much difficulty ingaining an entrance after they madeknown their business. ,

Women "Were Frightened.The man who appeared at the door

was inclined to prevent them frompassing, but he soon gave way. Thewomen appeared much frightened, andwhen they were taken from the build-ing they made an effort to concealtheir faces from the crowd. It re-quired three patrol wagons to take theprisoners to the station, where it wassome time before they were able tosecure bail. While waiting for bonds-men the women were permitted to re-main above stairs. When they finallysecured their liberty it was on thesurety of L. H. Bisbee, and attorneyin the Atwood building.

The police are unable to say whetherthe names given by the women are realor assumed. Among the number werethree colored women. The men whowere arrested declared at first thatthey had visited the place on busi-ness, but later admitted being em-ployed in the pjlace. The prisonerswere arraigned at the Thirty-fifthstreet police station Tuesday morning.

The cases were continued untilOct. 6.

In different ways each con-trived lo bleed the late emperor of mon-ey. They were brought up at Muiguanoamong the Etrurian remains whichtheir father disenterred during movethan 20 years, to the enrichment ofmost of the great museums of Eurona,

Pierre and Antoine lived like ban-ditti, carrying off women and shootiugthe meu who went to stop or came toarrest them. Pierre fired his final shotat Victor Noir, at Antenil, and killedhim. The eldest, whom I remember asPrince of Musignano, was married to adaughter of his uncle Joseph. He re-volted against the pope, was presidentof the Roman constituent, and such aviolent domestic tyrant that his wiferan away to Paris to supplicate the em-peror to protect her and her son—thefuture cardinal.

The Prince of Mnsignano met this bythreatening to publish certain papers ofthe first Lueien proving over and overagain the dishonor of Josephine andHortense. Louis Napoleon bought theaedocuments at his cousin's price. Thedeath of the wife, Zenaide, put an endto the feud. The late Prince Lueien,who obtained a civil list pension of£250 a year—about the fourth of the en-tire fund—figured in Paris during thesecond republic as an ultra LiberaJ. Heplayed this card until he got a largesum of money and a senatorship. Thispost was honorary, as he had to live outof France.

Antoine, the youngest of the fourbrothers, led a charmed life. His lifewas spared by the pope at the supplica-tion of Lady Dudley Stuart and hermother. The papal government banishodhim, and he went to Greece, where hegot into another serious scrape. In NewYork he had the narrowest escape of be-ing lynched for forgetting that ho wasnot at Musignano. Thence he went toMexico and Panama, with a scheme inhis head that he and Louis had talkedover at Bordentown for making an in-teroceanic canal. He laid the egg atColumbia (?) which his cousin LueienWyse and De Lesseps hatched 15 yearsago. Thus, had the man sent to arrestAntoine shot, instead of being shot by,him, the Panama bubble would nothave been inflated in our time.—ParisLetter in London Truth.

Deman Thompson's "Old Homestead.""The Old Homestead," which will be

the attraction at the Graud opera houseThursday evening next, is not a sur-face play, for Denman Thomspon inturning playwright, turned poet, drop-ping his plummet line deep into thehearts of the men and women he haswrought. The emotion of the lowlyfolks he depicts are deeper than thoseof the city-bred who, accustomed toschool themelves, forget, in the viotor-ies of today the disappointments of yes-terday. But not so with the lowly tillerof the soil, for to him yesterday's trag-edy hovers as a oloud o'er him and hisfor today and for many days to come,and it is only after many weary disap-pointments that the familiar smilesagain chase across his honest counten-ance as he beholds the silver liningbreaking through where the clouds seemdarkest. In Joshua Whitcomb, Mr.Thompson has given to the stage acharacter creation foreign to any thathas ever been presented before, a char-acter so honest, so homely, so true,that the actor is forgotten, and we6eem t9 hold conversation with the

DENOUNCED THE COAL BARONS

Rev. J. W. Bradshaw's Pointed Re-marks on Their Extortions.

In his sermon at the Congregationalchurch last Sunday morning, Rev. J.W. Bradshaw voiced the sentiment ofthe poor people of this country, if ofno other class, when he denounced thecoal barons for raising the price ofcoal this winter, although there is nowless work than ever for the laboringpeople and as a consequence Jess mo-ney in their pockets. Mr. Bradshaw isquoted as having said: '"They havetaxed the people $64,000,000 withoutany cause or justification.

"Labor is no higher than last year,coal is as plenty in the bowels of theearth and as easily obtained, freightrates are the same. They have wrungthis from the people by extortion.

"There is a blind Sampson goingaround this country who may be drivenby such oppression to pull the templeabout our ears."

ORIGIN OF THE HELLOINVENTION OF THE TELEPHONE, AS

TOLD BY ITS AUTHOR.

Dr. Bell, Like His Father, Was InterestedIn Efforts to Icstruct Deaf Mutes—WhileEngaged In This Line of 'Work the Tele-phone Was Suggested to His Mind.

The story of how the telephone c&meto be invented was told by Dr. Alexan-der Graham Bell during his attendanceon the meeting of the American Associ-ation to Promote the Teaching of Speechto the Deaf, held at Mount Airy. Dr.Bell's father was an elocutionist inEngland and well known as a correctorof defects in utterance, as his grandfa-ther had also been. His father had de-vised a method of representing the ac-tion of the vocal organs by symbols,Bimilar to those used in chemistry. Inlike manner letters representing the va-rious organs of speech, with figures at-tached indicating the positions of thoseorgans, would represent certain soundsor spoken words. A person placing bistongue, teeth, lips and palate in the po-sition indicated by a certain formulawould produce a definite sound. Theuse of such a system for the instructionof deaf mutes was not overlooked byDr. Bell's father, and experiments weremade in a little school in London. Dr.Bell became interested in the subjectand developed a method of teaching thedeaf to speak. His father had lecturedin this country, and in this way thesystem had come to the knowledge ofthe deaf and dumb institutions in Bos-ton and of the prominent educators inthat city, and in 1871 the board of edu-cation invited Dr. Bell to see what hecould do in the Boston School For theDeaf. He accepted the invitation andput the system in practice there withvery grei.i success, and it was intro-duced in one institution after anotherthroughout the country.

Dr. Bell did not at that time believeit was possible for deaf mutes to under-stand speech by looking at the mouth ofthe speaker. The mechanism of speechwas, he thought, too complicated forthat. He therefore set to work to in-vent an apparatus which would repre-sent speech to the eye as it was spokenby throwing a picture of the vibrationson the screen. He commenced his exper-iments with Koenig's manometric flameapparatus, which, by means of a vibrat-ing diaphram, stretched on a piece ofwood divided into two parts, and a se-ries of mirrors produced a band of lightwith wave effects, according to thesound uttered. The flame was too fee-ble to be photographed. Dr. Bell thenturned his attention to another appara-tus, called a phonetograph, in whichwas stretched a membrane, againstwhich a person spoke and which car-ried a little pencil over a smoked glass,which made a curved line that couldeasily be photographed.

He made many hundreds of tracings,but unfortunately they did not corre-spond with the flame pictures beforedescribed, and he attributed the troubleto the clumsiness of the apparatus. Hetherefore mapped out changes in theconstruction of his phonetograph andthought he saw in his draft a rude anal-ogy to the construction of the humanear. Instead of bones actuated by amembrane, as in the ear, he had a leverof wood moved by a membrane. Hetherefore concluded to modify the shapeto correspond with the human ear andwent to a distinguished aurist in Bos-ton, Clarence A. Blake, who suggestedhis experimenting with an actual hu-man ear. Dr. Blake got an ear and dis-sected it for Dr. Bell so as to expose themembrane and the little bones. The doc-tor attached a pencil to the bone calledthe malleus, moistened the membranewith glycerin and water and construct-ed an outer ear. With this, beautifultracings were made on the smoked glass.The tracings, however, were differentfrom what he had before produced.

While he was engaged upon the aboveline of search at the Institution For theDeaf, he was also developing an inven-tion out of which he expected to makesome money—viz, an electrical multi-ple telegraph, by which he could sendmany messages simultaneously over onewire. Dr. Bell simplified this apparatusgreatly. He noticed that when half adozen were operating together therewas a resultant electrical effect, andthat but one sending magnet was neces-sary to produce all the sounds. Furtherconsideration convinced him that hecould not only send any number of mu-sical tones simultaneously, but soundsof any kind. His familiarity with thenature of speech had taught him thatthe term "quality of sound" meansreally a chord of different musical toneshaving different intensities, and hecould conceive how a sound of any kindwhatever, even words, might be trans-mitted if one of these reeds could bemoved in front of an electro magnet inthe resultant way in which the air ismoved when a sound is uttered. Hiaexperiments in vibrations had taughthim the form of the sound waves. Theproblem was to make a mass of steelvibrate in the way the air does. Theproblem was in his mind at the time hewas making the experiments with thehuman ear, before described.

The thought suddenly struck himthat there was a great disproportion inmass between the bones of the ear andthe membrane that. connected them ;that these bones were, relatively to themembrane, very heavy and very mass-ive. Why, then, could not, the piece ofiron or steel be moved by attaching itto a heavier aud stiffer membrane, ofthe present telephone form. The prob-lem was solved. It will thus be seenthat the telephone was the result of twoseparate lines of thought.—St. LouisGlobe-Democrat.

Insuperable Difficulty."What became of your women's de-

bating club?""We had to disband. We couldn't

find a girl who would act as chairmanand keep still while the rest of us talk-ed. "—Philadelphia North American.

She Does Not Exist.There is really no such person as the

new woman. She is nothing but a sup-positious fad, a figment of the mascu-line imagination. She has no real exist-ence unless in remotely isolated indi-vidual cases. Generically she does notexist any more than the rampageousmother-in-law, the Vassar bred honse-keeper and her deadly cookery, the flir-tatious and designing tpyewriter andall tbe other items, singular and col-lective, of the professional caricaturist'sstock in t\\de. The whole world iamoving on together. The new womanon her bicycle today is no more "new"than was Di Vernon on her horse ofold. The new woman who now seeksmastery of all the arts and sciences isno more "advanced" fhan was hergreat-grandmother, whose modest intel-lectual aspirations so shocked good Mrs.Malaprop. When the wcrld conies to seefully, as it will, that all the inoverneutsof the day which so disturb some timor-ous souls.are nothing but uniform andharmonious social evolution towardthat which is best and perfect, it willwonder how men could ever have beenso foolish or so unjust as to make sovast a pother over the burlesque Frank-enstein of the new woman.—New YorkTribune,
