The very last changes of fashion axe being made for the summer of 1887, -which it going into history as a season which dressers need not to be ashamed of, save in the one matter of bustles. Already the dimensions of that monstrosity are dwindling. The bustle begins to disappear. Where the back draperies are greatly distended, the new aim is to suggest lightness rather than solidity. That is to say, the material of the toarnure is kept oat by isolated wire, and not by an inner structure. The effeet is pieasanter, because the outer fabric seems to be extended of itself, and not to cover a deformity. The algebraic sort of jacket is an antttmn fashion that will, likely, get into popular vogue. The fashion for Tests now extends even to acquatio dresses, and the front of bathing dresses worn at Newport, Cape May, and liong Branch are earioosly berigged with red or white braid, as are the evening costnmea with more expensive ornamentation. The material is usually of serge, twilled or striped flannel; by means of the latter some quite pretty combinations are effected, particularly where the skirt is striped, with fancy stripe trimmed blouse and drawers. Revamped dresses are sometimes trimmed now with dark ribbons horizontally, a style favorable to slim women, but not to short or fat ones. Galatea dresses of striped or blue and -white twilled cotton are in favor. They are made up with skirt wants and sashes of a solid color, and the skirt has very long drapery showing its selvage, or else bordered with velvet ribbons. A new trimming is made of six or seven rows of extremely narrow ribbon called baby ribbon held together by links of gilt thread and edged with loops of this feather-edged ribbon, which is only a fourth of an inch wide. This is especially effective when of white and gold the ribbons of white satin and the links of gilt thread. The most brilliant as well as the most delicate shades of color are worn this season, bat now, as ever, it is all a matter of taste or choice, and mere vividness or simple neutrality is not sufficient. The quality and quantify of a color and the manner in which one tint is to be used in conjunction with a contrasting hue, has so very much to do with the success of a gown that if its intended wearer is not positive as to her perfect taste in selection and combination, it is by far the better plan to leave these matters toe trustworthy modiste, whose trained eye and experience can be relied on. A new out is followed in a number of the French bodices, which consists in omitting the usual darts on the front. This manner of cutting the corsage is successful only in the use of certain elastic fabrics, being specially advantageous in making up stripes sad checks, which often prove such failures at the seams, even when subject to the most careful manipulation. The underarm sleeves are set slightly forward somewhat mas, and the edges of the fronts are curved in and out to St the figure. This style of corsage is not at all becoming to forms overstout, but it is highly advantageous to slender women, as it imparts a certain roundness to the form which the usual dart bones destroy. The corset bodice is a boon to stout figures, as it gives additional

length to the waist, produces a xlender effect by its many seams, and is lined

on each one of them, even to the double

3k seams in the back. This bodice is

out extremely high under the arms.

The tournoure is neither greater nor

less; it remains stationary. Skirts will remain short for the street, demitrained for fetes and 5 o'clock teas, and full trained for evening dress.

Corsages are wonderfully varied, as

well for day as for evening. There

are plastrons, Vandyked pieces, back

insertions, veits, half-vests, gnimpes, blouse fronts with jersey sides, and jersey fronts with loose side forms.

Later on there will ba small simulated capes, the upper part of the corsage made of plush or velvet, with Suvarof sleeves, giving the top of the corsage, back and front, the appearance of a short cape.

Corsalets, continually altered and

modified in aspect, arc still much worn.

Ono style of evening corsaga is open to

the middle of tho chest, with a very deep turn-down collar of velvet of a contrasting color. Inside the opening

is a pleated fichu, crossed, made either

of lace or of tulle: The velvet of the

collar is repeated in a deep belt and in the cuffs of the puffed uleeves. Other corsages are low on the shoulder, pointed, and open from top to bottom upon a plastron of lace or crape crossed and made to simulate an inner low corsage. This is a very old fashion revived. .STew Fort Evening Post.

T ailor Gown for Anlnmn. London tailors and importers of French costumes furnish hints of the cloth gowns in preparation for the first cool days of autumn and for early winter. Smooth cloths will be used again for dressy suits, two colors in rather marked contrast appearing in one costume. For these combination cloth costumes tho lighter color will be used for the lower skirt and vest, with a dark basque and drapery ; the trimming is braid on the vest and lower skirt of the dark color used for the upper part; thus serpent green cloth will be draped over a skirt of gray cloth which is elaborately braided with green like that of the ovordress ; another gown has a skirt of tobaccobrown cloth with a polonaise of dark blue cloth, and the braiding on the light brown vest and the skirt border is of dark blue like that of the polonaise. When a jacket is added it matches the color of the upper part of

tho gown; small mantles and still

smaller shoulder capes are made of combinations of the two colors softened by the use of braid in complicated designs, and of fringe made of the braid. Pinked edges are again seen on imported doth gowns, forming side bands,

yolks, borders, and vests, made of al

ternating rows of dark and light cloths,

as pansy color with fawn, or Havana

brown with cactus red. Harper" Ba

Myfes in Conversation. There is a fashion in conversation

among women. Last winter, wherever there was a gathering of the gentler sex, the kitchen women, who had never

thrust their delicate hands into dough or reddened their fair complexion before an oven, talked like experts iu the art of cooking. It was the result of

the fashionable "cooking classes" for young ladies. Some years ago the topic was music It was the first season of German opera at the Metropolitan Opera House, and it was deemed essential that every woman should ex

hibit some knowledgo of the subject. Tins year the topic is outdoor amusements, and the man who knows it not

is dumb in the presence of fashionable

womanhood. Hotel Gazette.

The fall bonnets will be with some

new round hats. The brims are most

others rolled upward in front and grad

Turbans wilt be used again, with some

plumes are arranged in most varied ways for trimming autumn hats and bonnets, and there are also some ostrich feathers in dusters of tips and demi-

long plumes which will be used later

for winter hats. l eathers are made floresesnt and glace precisely as fabrics

are, ana are pus togetner almost as compactly as any fabric, and used for making turbans, bonnets, crowns, and as facings for the high-pointed brims cf the new military hats. Bibbons will continue to be used for bonnet trimmings in widths varying from two and a half to four and five inches. Double stripes of satin are along the edges of groe-grain ribbons, while others represent ladder stitches, and others have crape-like borders; these crape-like bands are also seen on watered ribbons and w ith others that are partly of velvet Children's hats of felt are mostly white, or iu the grayish Gobelin blue shades; they are entirely of the smooth felt, or else the crown is plain, and the brim is of the long-napped brush fell.

For children's sashes wide surah ribbons are imported, with diagonal stripes and rows of balls separated by heavily twilled lines. These lie so closely and compactly that they do not easily eome untied and are therefore best liked for little people's wares. Madras sashes in rich dull colors are worn with black lace or not dresses. When they are worn with basques they are folded narrowly, brought to a point in front, outline ' the basque, and are tied under the postilion, making a very bouffant effect. New York World.

Gov. Larrabee Named for ReelectionLieut. Gov. Hull Also Renominated.

Enthusiasm Manifested Over the Name of Senator Allison Text or the Platform.

Tets Moines Bpeclal.t The Iowa Republican State Convention closed a harmonious session on Wodnesday. The delegates, of whom there wore 999 iucludod In ths call, were all present except three. Although there was no very spirited contest as to platform or ticket, tho occasion brought hero the foromoBt mon in tho nartv in tho various dele

gations, and occupying seats of honor upon the stage -were many who have borne the burden of party work and leadership forovor thirty years. Among tho notable mon present were Senators Allison and Wilson. Governor Larrabee, ex-Governors Gear, Sliorman, Stone, and Morrill, Congressmen Hendorson, Struble, .Lyman, Fuller, Holmes, and Andorson, and avorylarge majority of tho mombers of tho late General Assembly. The speeches were pitched to a high key of party enthusiasm. Tho opening by Hon. John Bronnan, the eloquent Irish attorney of Sionx City, tho temporary Chairman, abounded in strong argument and brilliant sallies nf wit, wall sustaining his reputation as an orator. A significant incident during its delivory was the effect produced by his reference to Blaine and Allison ; the name of the former evoked apSlause, but when reference was made, inoientally, to Senator Allison, that gentleman, who occupied a prominent seat on the stage was given a perfeot ovation. This spontaneous outburst showed unmistakably the popular strength of Iowa's senior Sonator within the ranks of his party. There are no signs here that' Senator Allison will havo any half-hearted support in Iowa. Mr. Brofinan referred to all tho principal issnos, dividing the parties. He sharply arraigned the Democratic party for inconsistency in resolving in favor of homo rule for Ireland while denying it to the people of Dakota. The nomination of Gov. Larrabee for a seoond term was carried with a shout, and in response to numerous calls he appeared and made quite an extended address. It was devoted largely to a review of State affairs, and compared the expenses of State government in Iowa with that of neighboring States. He said that in tho last two years there had been a reduction of about 8309,000 of outstanding warrants, and the whole amount would be wiped out by the first day of Jnly next. He took strong grounds in favor of the prohibitory law, and said he believed the man had not vet been bom who would live to see the repeal of the law. J. A. T. Hull, the present incumbent, was then renominated by acclamation as Lieutenant Governor. The contest over the nomination of Supreme Judge was quite spirited, as predicted. Judgo Adams led. On the first formal ballot Adams received SOB; Itobinson, 198; Buddies, 91 ; Lewis, U2 ; Granger, 77 ; Henderson, 74 ; and Miracle, $15. No oholce. There was little change nntil the fourth ballot, when Robinson's vote jumped up to W3 ', Adams, 277; Lewis, 79; Bnddick, 6t; Henderson, 19; Miracle, CO; Granger, 2Ba. The opposition finally, on the next ballot, united on Senator Bobinson of Storm Lake and gave him a good majority. In the contest for Superintendent of Publio Instruction Prof. Fellows received a good vote on the first ballot standing third In a field of eight candidates. However, the fight narrowed down to Sabin, Grumbling, and Frost, and the other candidates were withdrawn and their supSorters went to Sabin. The following is the rst ballot: Sabin, 202 ; Grumbling, 175 ; Frost, 116; Gurney, 97: Fellows, 148; Coffecn, SO; Eldridge. 14a On &e third ballot Henry Sabin of Clinton was nominated by the following vote : Sabin, 7S0; Grumbling, 222; Frost, 44 the nomination being made unanimous. The nlatform. which was read bv George D.

Perkins of Sioux City, was well received by the convention, and parti of it were heartily cheered, especially the plank which favors the abolition of the pass and the recommendation in regard to a two cent per mile passenger rate on first olass railroads. The temperance plank also pleased the convention very greatly, and the plank commending Gov. Larrabee for his position on the subjeotof the return of the rebel flags. THE PLATFOBM ADOPTED. The Bepublicans ot Iowa accept as settled the old issues and conclusive results of the war, and hail with patriotic satisfaction all sincere evidences of returning fraternity and reunion. The new issues raised in tho South since the war against the right of every free man to cast his vote unmolested and have it honestly counted, and against the right of minority rule in the State and nation, are yet to be settled. We deny that the suffrage is purely a loyal question for each State to regulate in whole or suppress in part as it chooses. The suppression of the votes of the black men in the South is not only a wrong to them, it is also, in a national sense, in the election ot Congress and the election of a President, a bold and successful method to make one vote in the South count for as much as two in the North, aud therefore a wrong whioh reaches into every neighborhood and to every voter in the Union. It is also used to degrade the negroes of tho South into a servile form of cheap labor with which free labor everywhere must soon be brought into competition. We continue to favor a protective tariff for the upbuilding of American industries and the development of all our resources as a nation. We also favor it for the protection of American labor and in such degree as will maintain to snch labor the advantage of the difference between the wages of the workingnien of Europe and America, We believe the tariff should be revised and reduced wherever this policy will allow and the public interest approve. The strictest honest', economy, and retrenchment should bo required and followed in the expenditure of public money, and we declare for all possible and practicable reduction of taxation, both national and Stoto. We favor the revision of the revenue laws of the State to the end that taxation maybe eqnitablo on all kinds of property. We are opposed to criminal and vicious immigration of all kinds to threaten the publio welfare and disturb tho social peace, and to all pauper immigration and convict or coolie labor, and to the contract of prison labor by the State to bring unfair competition to American workin gmen. We favor such legislation in the State as will protect miners and all other laborers in their loll rights as to compensation, protection ot life, hours of labor, and freedom ot trade. All publio lands should be held, and all unearned lands granted reclaimed, for actual settlers. Non-resident aliens should not be allowed to acquire title to lands in this country. The civil-service law, enacted by the Bepublican party and now so flagrantly disobeyed and violated by the Democratic administration, should be maintained and improved in all ways to insure its enforcement and increase its efficiency. The sole test of the incumbent of an office or applicant for a place in the detail service of the Government should be honesty, competency, and fidelity, with the single exception that when all other qualifications are equal, the Union soldier shall have the prefer

ence. We are unable to give the commendation of good citizens to the administration ofGrover Cleveland. In its discrimination against and its shameful abnse of Union soldiers, and the constant preference it has shown to the men who fought to destroy the Union ; in its despotic use of the executive power to veto bills passed by Congress for the relief of Union soldiers and the Des Moines Biver land settlers ; in its attempt to reverse the verdict of the war by a surrender of the rebel battle-flags ; in its failure to reduce the surplus or decrease taxation, and for its broken promises to the people and its inefficient discharge ot the public services, we axe compelled to denounce it as being unpatriotic, unworthy, a disappointment to the country, and a fresh proof of the incapacity of the Democratic party to conduct successfully the affairs of the nation. The theory of publio regulation and oontrol of railways and other corporations, first onaeted into law in this 8tate and by the State carried up to the approval of the Supreme Court of the United States, we maintain with increasing favor. We approve the general principles of the interstate commerce law, and favor such amendments thereto as will make it still more protective of the interests of the people, and snch State legislation ap will apply its princiEles to this State. We either asu that the next legislature shall, after thorough and unsparing investigation, so revise and amend the laws forming the railroad code of the State as will secure to the people all legitimate protection from corporation monopoly and extortion as will increase the emoienoy end the usefulness of the commission, and as will socure all fair and possible reduction In freight and fores, believing that the first-olaas roads of the State can afford to reduce passenger fares to two cents a mile. We are opposed to all unjust discriminations between persons and places, and also to any railroad policy or legislation whioh will tend to injnre our agricultural, industrial, or commercial interests, or that will aid in building np outside cities and interests at the expense of the cities and towns of our own State. We are also opposed to granting any form of exclusive rights by which any corporation or individuals will bo protected from legitimate and honorable competition and established as a monopoly regardless ot publio interest. This Government, saved from destruction by treason by. tho patriotism and valor of the Union soldiers, cannot afford in justice or honor to deal less than justly with them. It should cordially and promptly bestow as an obligation of the Government ana not a a charity liberal pensions to all disabled or dependent soldiers, and to the dependent widows and parents of soldiers, thus preventing any suffering and want from coming to those to whom the nation owes a debt it can never repay. Iowa has no compromise to hold with ihe saloon. We declare in favor of the faithful and vigorous enforcement in all parts of tho State of the nrobibitorv law. The pharmacy law and

county permit law should be so amended as to prevent the drug store or wholesale liquor law from becoming in any manner the substitute or accessor of the saloon. Vila nrniwn nnr nvmimthv with the neonlfl

William Larrabee was born In Connecticut in 1832. When 24 years old ho removed to Iowa

and began a suocessiui cosiness career. Judicious investments in wheat and real estate were the foundation of his prosperity, which niuuia him in a hlah nosition amons the lead

ing citizens of his adopted State. His earliest experience in politics was as an unsuccessful candidate for Congress. In 1870 he booame a number of tie State Senate, v w&ioh be bad

Hull, renominated for Lieutenant Governor, served in ihe war, aud afterward conducted a newspaper at 111 .'mingham, Iowa. Later ho bought the Davis County lippnhlmm. Ho sorvod for several terms as Secretary of the St ate Senate, and was then elected Secretary ot State, and two years ago was nominated and elected Lieutenant Governor. At that time ho was prominently mentioned for Governor, and although a comparatively young man his oircle of acquaintances is extensive and his personal following is large. G. 8. llubinson, the nominee for Supremo Judgo, was born in Illinois in 181.1. He was a termor boy, and whon 11 years of age, through the accidental death of his lather, was called upon to Bupport the family. He afterward went to Iowa and resided at Brighton, When the war broke out he enlisted, aud was wounded and taken prisoner at Chickamauga. He subsequently attended college and graduated at Bloomlngton. Ill , aud also graduated in law at St Louis. Iu 1869 ho wont to Buena Vista County, Iowa, where lu now rosidos.

Henry Sabin, of Clinton County, the nominee for Stato Superintendent, was born in Poiufrot, Conn., in 18211. Filtering Amherst College at tl'0 ago of 20, he graduated with honors in 1852, and went to Iowa in 1871. Ho has lived in Clinton for tho last sixteen years, and has always boon an enthusiastic worker in the cause of education.

MARYLAND REPUBLICANS. The State Convention the" Largest and Most Enthusiastic Held for Many Tears.

Ihe Ticket and the Platform Prominent Democrat Pledge Their Support

Baltimore special. The State Bepubllcan Convention met on Wednesday in this city, and was tho largest aud most enthusiastic gathering of Bepublicans held in Maryland for many years. Hon. Lewis . McConias presided, A platform was adopted. It starts out : ltesolved, That the Bepubllcan party of Maryland, adhering to tho principles affirmed by it national convention in respect to tho rules governing appointments to office, declares that the reform in the civil service should be thorough, radical, and complete. To that end it demands the co-operation of tho legislative with the executive department of the Government, and that Congress shall so legislate tbat fitness, ascertained by proper practical competition, shall admit to publio service ; that the tenure of office shall be made secure during good behavior, and that the power of removal for cause shall accompany the power of appoint ment. That tho principles thus declared with reference to tho National Government shall be applied in their full force to the government of the State of Maryland and the city of Baltimore. That tho President of the United States, by his notion in regard to the Federal appointments in this State, has given conclusive evidence that his professions of devotion to civilservice reform are hollow and delusive, and his failure to call the Federal officeholders to account for their open and shameless disregard of his own declaration that they should not engage in efforts to control the political action of their own party is a confession of insincerity on his part or a proof that his will is controlled by the stronger will of the senior Senator from Maryland. That it is the imperative duty of Congress to pass the measure known as the Blair educational bill, or some equivalent provision for aiding the states in removing tbe illiteracy which now exists in so many of them. The platform goes on to suggest laws for preventing discrimination in the publio schools against colored children : regulating and adjusting the differences between labor and capi

tal ; tne aDoiitlun ot tne system oi enxorceu tobacco inspection ; tho passage of such laws as will effectutdly protect American labor and American scoiety from the influences of the pauper and criminal classes of other countries ard the comnetition of convict labor at home;

opposing the calling of a constitutional convention at the present time; condemning the schemes of the Democratic party

for the destruction of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal and its removal as a competitor with railroad monopoly ; f avorinc the Dassoce of more strineent laws against

the nse of money at elections ; for an equitable

system or taxation, a revision oi tne revenue laws, a curtailment of the exiienses of legislation, and a revision ot the laws regulating procedure in the courts ao as to lessen the expense ; for using the snrplus in the Stato Treasury to the extinguishment of the State debt us far as

possible, and the refunding of the remainder by offering it in the markets so as to secure the

lowest rate oi interest ; aemanamg a minority reuresentation nn all commissions and official

boards, and the adoption of such election laws

as Khali guarantee tree sunrage. Nominations were made as follows : Gov

ernor, Walter B. Brooks, of Baltimore ; Comptroller, K. B. Dixon ; Attorney General, Francis Miller. After the business of tbe convention was concluded a sensation was caused by the appearance on tho floor of John K. Cowen, a prominent lawyer and leader of the reform movement in the Democratic party. He was introduced, and in one ot the strongest speeches ever listened to in this city pledged to tho Bepubllcan ticket the full support of tho independent Democrats. He announced that he was and always should be a Democrat, but that he was tired of waiting for the fulfillment of reform promises made by "Senator Gorman

INDIANA FINANCES.

The Democratic Administration Charged

with Falsifying the Becords. Indianapolis special.) More crooked transactions in the manasement ot State finances by the Demo

cratic officers daring the last four years

were discovered to-day. it has been found that in 1KK5 they collected from the counties $249,646 of revenue tbat legally belonged to the nest fiscal year, and this was not properly credited on the books. They also charged to increased receipts $ 600,000 of temporary loans, which represents a refunding transaction at 4 percent. In 1886 they also anticipated the revenues to tbe amount of $213,047.15. By these methods they succeeded in making it appear that the State was in a better condition financially at the end of tbe Democratic administration than it really was, when, as a matter of fact, they look charge

of State affairs' with a balance of over

$500,000 in the treasury, and left it worse

than bankrupt. It is believed tbat otljer illegal transactions will be discovered.

Hew the Soldiers Voted. Apropos of the claims of the Democratic

press that there were as many, or more, Democrats in tbe Union ranks as there were

Republicans, it is well once in a while to refer to the official figures. In 1864 there were eleven States which had passed laws to allow their soldiers in the field to vote at tbe Presidential election, and thus express their party preferences. McClellm was the Democratic candidate, and ho was a great favorite with tbe boys in blue. Many a Republican soldier in the Virginia camps voted for "Little Mac," because of a personal liking for bis old commander. Yet with ibis advantage

the soldier vote was tremendously large for

Lincoln, were are tne ngures: State. Lincoln. McClellan. Maine 4.17 741

New Hampshire 2,006 090

Vermont 243 49 Pennsylvania 86,712 12,349 Maryland 2,800 321

Kentucky 1,181 2,823

Ohio 41,148 9,757 Michigan 0,402 2,959 Iowa 15.178 1,364

Wisconsin 11,372 '2,418 Kansas 2,870 518 California. 2,000 237

Total 119,703 34,291 These are the official figures, and we

know of no other trustworthy way of tell

ing the polities of tbe men who composed the Union armies than by the record of their votes. Until our Democratic brethren ean invent one as satisfactory we shall take

tbe liberty of disbelieving all their stale meats to the effect that "Demooratio sol

diers saved tbe Union." The man who says so in good faith is not mentally above the capacity of a gibbering idiot Toledo

Blade. Severe, but True. ' The arraiimment of the nrosent ad

ministration in tbe platform off tbe Pennsylvania Republicans is as severe as it is truthful. It arraigns the Cleveland ad

ministration lor general imbecility iu deal

inn with great national questions, and Eoints to the fact that all tho energy that as been displayed has beeu in tbe displacement of officials to reward partisan

service uy putting Democrats in me positions, in violation of tbe President's civil-

service pledges. It justly declares tbat tbe administration bas no policy beyond expediency, and no principle beyond prepara

tion for a second term; and closes with

this scathing denunciation of the bull-

necked chief executive:

"President Cleveland bas endeavored to

nurture sectionalism by preference to dis

tinguisbed stations of soldiers prominent in tbe effort to destroy the (Jovennent; by

his reiusai to sanction pensions to soldiers eminent in their efforts to sustain it: bv

bis proposition to take from among our national trophies the banners of an eztiuct

military power, won by the lavish ex

penditure of blood and treasure of tbe country, to surrender them to those whom he supposed to inherit his prejudice, and

who were without either aesiro or authority to receive then."

Helps to Patience. A woman, whose life has been long and oheoquered with many reverses, said lately: "Nothing has giveu nie more courage to face every day's duties and troubles than a few worda spoken to me when I was a child by my old father. He was the villago doctor. I came into his office, where he was compounding medicine, one day, lookiug cross and ready to cry. " 'What is tho matter, Mary ?' " 'I'm tirod ! I've been making beds and washing dishes all day, and every day, and what good does" it do V Tomorrow the bods will be to make aud the dishes to wash over again.' " 'Look, my child,' he said, 'do you see these little empty vials ? They are all insignificant, cheap things, of no value in themselves ; but in one I put a deadly poison, in another a sweet perfume, a third a healing medicine.' " 'Nobody cares for the vials ; it is that whioh they carry that kills or cures. Your daily work, the dishes washed or the floors swept are homely things and count for nothing in themselves ; but it is the anger or the sweet patience or zeal or high thoughts that you put into them that shall last. These make your life.' " No strain is harder npoii the young than to bo forced to do work which they feel is beneath their faculties, yet no discipline is more helpful. "The wise builder," says Bolton, "watches

not the bricks which his journeyman lays, but the manner in which he lays them."

The man who is half-hearted and lag

ging as a private soldier will be halfhearted and lagging as a commander. Even in this world he who uses his talents rightly as a servant is often given the control of many cities.

luey also serve, saul John Milton,

"who only stand und wait. "

"Jiven Buddha," says a Hindu prov

erb, "was once a cart-horso and carried the loads of other men."

We should remember, above all, that

the greatest of all men spent thirty years of His earthly life waiting the appointed time to fulfill His mission.

The Sad Young Man. "One afternoon in the spring of 1865," said Murat Halstead, of the Cin

cinnati Commercial, in one of his reminiscent moods, "a tall, slim young man, with a high Soman nose and sad blue eyes, came hesitatingly into my office and asked in timid tones if the editor was in. He said some one about the paper had been writing down the show, and he wanted to ask if they wouldn't please stop it. He didn't want any trouble, he said, but he would like to have them let np. He was so polite and looked so sort of hurt that I tried to remember if the Commercial had pitched into any show recently, but could not. I told him if ho would drop in again when the amusement editor was in he could lay his t;riovanco before him. The young man bowed, and moved toward the dpor. Then he stopped, hesitated a moment, and, approaching my desk, said : 'I don't care

for myself. 1 woulun t nave minded it

if they hadn't pitched into the elephant.' That night I went to hear

Artemus Ward lecture, and reoognizea

in the humorist the sad-eyed stranger

who had so mystified me in the af ter-

noon." reams biuingx.

Bather suggest tho use of Hostetter'o Stomach Bitters, which, in removing every trace of dyspepsia, and regulating the liver and bowels, strikes at and extirpates the most prolific cause of chronic nervous trouble. That nerve-shattering disease, fever and ague, is among the formidable ailments, to the removal of which this gonial remedy is specially adapted Nervous prostration, resulting from proVi-ged mental or physical effort, is also a state of the system where tho intervention of this tonic Is very desirable, more particularly as its use is to quiet and relax the tension of overwrought nerves. The Bitters are invaluable in rheumatism, neuralgia, and kidnay troubles. Employ no substitute for it.

The Dangers of Habit. Andrew H. H. Dawson, the New York lawver, tells an after-dinner story

as effectively as he makes a stump

speech. One of lus latest is wormy of wider circulation than among the company iu which it was told. Meeting a few friends in the Exchange hotel, at Richmond, a few days ago, he said he

invited them in the bar-room to drink. Standing at one side was a miserably clad, thirsty-looking fellow, whose woebegone appearance excited his pity, and he invited him to join in the "lu

brication. "

"I reckon Til have to, stranger," was the response, "though I don't need it; I've just had a drink; hut I don't dare refuse." "Don't dare refuse?" asked Mr. Dawson, "how's that?" "Because I'm afraid I might get into the habit of refusing," was the reply, as he poured out half a tumblerful of old rye. American Magazine.

In the course of his charge to the jury on a murder case an Arkansas judge said : "In making your decision, gentlemen, please bear in mind that the deceased Was reaching for bis hip pocket when the prisoner blazed away at him. The territorial statutes, you understand, gentlemen, allow one man, whon he sees another make this motion, to produce his gun and begin the bombardment, To be sure it has been proved that the deceased was reaching for his handkerchief, but that makes no difference, the law does not recognize any such movements. The very fact that he was carrying a pockethandkerchief while in Arkansas shows that he was an unfit member for our society.
