John 11. McLean's Great Newspaper.
Without a single exception, there is beyond doubt no greater or more popular newspaper in the United States than the Cincinnati Enquirer or a more successful publisher than its proprietor, Mr. John R. McLean,
The old-time prices for the Daily Enquirer have been maintained, and its circulation largely increased each year hard times and cheaper jour- Transcript, nals failing to arrest its onward march and high appreciation of the public for its true worth and merit.
The Weekly Enquirer at beginning of the campaign year was offered at 5° cents a year, and its circulation increased by the addition of over
200,000 new subscribers the most! myself."—Judge. 'substantial and coveted testimonial a
publisher could desire. When asked for the secret of such success. Mr. McLean frankly answers: The Enquirer has no opinions to force upon its patrons, it simply prints the facts and tells the truth that the reader may form his own opinions. By maintaining the price of the paper, more news and greater variety can be furnished, and every class of business
FASHION HIN1 S
The correct walking boot is to have a
broad sole this winter. Sailor hats, trimmed with plaid taffeta ribbon, are very popular for fall wear.
Buttons are much used as a dress trimming and as many as 300 tiny ones are distributed on one gown. "Schen-schin" is the newest shade of pink. It is the color of Japanese ,roses when they first begin to bloom.
The most approved felt hats are ventilated by a row of slus in the crown. Bands of velvet or ribbon can be passed through them,
Englishwomen when climbing mountains often put on trousers, as there are some ascents that could not be safely made in skirts.
The gown which Miss Ellen Terry is wearing in the part of Imogen was described by one of her sister actresses as "a vision of hyacinths and crocuses."
A walking stick is regarded as a very "smart" addition to the English girl's street costume, and very elaborate sticks are made for such use. An ebony stick with a gold knob, decorated with cupids in blue enamel, is one of the favorites.
The rather eccentric fad for wearing live insects as jewelry seems to be increasing, and the Japanese terrapin is announced as the latest victim. It is reported that the terrapin are being sent out of Japan by thousands to meet the demand in Paris and New York,
It is rerlly pleasant to meet the new millinery straight from Paris it is so guileless of exaggeration. In shape it is rather small, with an open brim, its trimming limited both in variety and color, and it altogether conducts itself with an exceeding decorum.
To keep violets fresh when wearing them on the person, wrap the stems first in cotton dipped in salted water and then in tinfoil. When they are not doing service the stems should be put in salted water, the tops sprinkled and the whole covered closely with confectioner's paper, and put in a cool place. In this way the blossoms may be preserved for several days.
Otter hunting is a favorite sport in the AdirondackB and North Woods this fall, and is a very exciting one. The chase is made partly through the water, and to enable them to take part in it the women wear high rubber boots, coming about six inches above the knee, and mackintosh skirts, which are looped up for wading. The animal is killed with a spear and his skin makes beautiful muffs and collarettes.
A great French millinery house, which "makes" fashions, let an American woman, recently, into the secret of how it is done. There is nothing at all mysterious in it. The artists study old fashion books and the styles of bygone days, and, getting their inspiration therefrom, produce designs. The finished results are put in the showroom and the action of the public with regard to them decides what is going to be the "style."

THE CZAR'S TRAIN.
ronderous Strength and B*fiiY«n«M of the Saloons. One cannot fail to be impressed with the ponderous strength of the eleven huge saloons, says the London Dally Telegraph. In build they have the appearance of being made of massive steel, and it is remarkable how few are "he windows permitted to each "coach." When railway carriages were first constructed one window on each side to each compartment was the allowance. The czar is content with less light. The deficiency is hardly made up by that •derived from the clearstory roof, for in long vehicle measuring sixty-five feel there are not more than five small windows. These are all on one side and can be instantly shuttered. Extreme solidity, massive gun-metal bearings, which are carefully examined by stolid
Russian attendants from time to time, most complete warming appartns and absolutely strict seclusion are the characteristics of the imperial train. It is painted a black-blue, with a thin beading of gold, and, except for very small gold double-headed eagles at intervals, there is no decoration. Everything is plain, severe and self-contained. Flexible and collapsible gangways, on the latest corridor principle, connect the carriages. One can imagine this train snowed up or besieged and yet its occupants secure and their comforts served by the resources of the train in all departments, from the kitchen to the boudoir. Nor is the train imited to one gauge, for its a_\les are readily adjustible, so that the czar may always take his traveling house with him, no matter upon what line of continental railway he may journey. Still, there is no parade of its luxury—the almost dead walls of the carriage concealing their interiors from the eyes of the curious. Such is the train which M.
Koposkine, the engineer of Russian railways, has now in responsible charge. Its weight, length and dimensions assign it to the heaviest rollingstock in the world, and therefore among the safest: for collisions have shown that the more solidly built a carnage is the less disposed it is to "telescope."
THE FIRST CARRIAGE IN MAINE
Uow a Minister Came to Buy It and Why He Sold It. The Rev. Francis Winter was a native of Boston and a graduate of Harvard college, says the Lewiston Journal. He went to Bath early in 1707, and after preaching on probation for the orthodox church was invited to settle, which invitation he accepted. He was ordained in the autumn of the same year. He went to Bath on horseback in company with Lemuel Standish. Mr. Winter came from Boston, where he had associated with such eminent men as Adams, Otis and WTarren, himself becoming an ardent patriot, taking the lead in the revolutionary measures adopted in Bath during that memorable period. Mr. Winter married Miss Abigail Alden in 1768, and it is through her that the Winters of to-day trace their ancestry back to .the "purltan maiden of Plymouth." Three years after the marriage of the Rev. Francis
Winter and Abigail Alden they started to visit a sister of Mrs. "Winter, living in Connecticut, and intended to ride all the way on horseback, but Mrs. Winter became so fatigued that Mr. Winter sold one of the horsfir for a carriage and harness. It was the first carriage that ever came into Maine and was called a chaise. Traveling was so difficult that two negroes were employed to accompany them with shovels and axes to clear the road, 'everal times the chaise had to be taken apart and lifted over fallen trees. The minister's parishioners thought that It was putting on too much style for their pastor to ride in a carriage, and in consequence Mr. Winter sold it. This was in 1771. It was a two-wheeled chaise, the body resting on leather braces, which were attached to wooden springs.
They Both Voted.
Admiral Jouett lives at Sandy Springs, Md., where the roads are no better than elsewhere la Dixie. He is an ardent republican, although a son of the blue grass state and last election, when heavy rains had made the roads almost impassable, he shamed the stay-at-homes by taking his son, James, jr.. through the mud and downpour to their voting place. The journey home in the dark, swimming through mud to lhe hubs, was so disquieting that they arrived profane and exhausted. "Well." said the admiral, "thank heaven, that's over. We've had a hard pnll of it, but it is the duty of every citizen of the United States to vote. Say, Jim," he ejaculated. fi"n !y. "1 voted the straight republican ticket, as usual. How did you vote?" "Father, we might as 'well have stayed a home and paired." replied the son "I voted straight democratic."
