The first one to be noticed was a yachting gown of cream white drilling, just such as is used for large sacks of flour. It was firm and solid and niat^ a handsome dress. This particular one was made with full skirt, with a two inch Juind of blue jeans around the bottom. There was a narrow line of blue soutache above it, which gave an added emphasis. The waist was a beltless sailor blouse of the same stuff, trimmed at the top with a band and braid and a narrow upright dimity rufilo. The jacket was as jaunty as it was pretty. It was of the same drilling, the wide rovers and collar trimmed like the bottom of the skirt. The sleeves had the same finish. There is a little bow in front- of the blouse which gave a propel shipshape to t.ho whole suit.

Attractive Prospects For the Approaching Annual Meet of the American Canoeists, Sj.-ecial Correspondence. 1

ALBANY, Aug. 5.—The American Canoe association is soon again to assemble its members on the picturesque shores of Lake Cham plain, and already many canoes and canoeists have passed through this city northward bound for the annual meet:, which takes placo at Bluff Point from Aug. 9 to Aug. 23.

Tho association is an international organization, having over 2,500 members

OX LAKE CHAML'LAIX.

und comprising four sectional divisions— tho northern, including all of Canada tho eastern, all of New England the Atlantic. the basins of tho middle Atlantic I rivers, with their seaboard, and the central, the balance of the United States.

Any aniatee.r canoeist over 18 years of ago is eligible to membership and invited to join.

The association, with its constantly growing numbers and widening influence, affords increasing Iraternal benefit and moral force. Tr promotes 1 lie interests of canoeists, especially in the direction of paddling and sailing for pleasure, and also by holding meetings for eamping and racing, aiding the rinaiion of new canoe clubs and giving facilities for obtaining information through its librarian and ollicial organs as to routes, etc.. for cruising purposes and in regard to canoe and sail designing. I The annual general association meet, and also the division moots bring together members from all parts of North America friendly intercourse and competition, forming a source of great pleasure and en-

jnyinont. The association provides a code I of rules for the supervision of paddling I and sailing races, and through its influence keeps its branch of sport free from the slightest taint of professionalism. I Tho pioneers in American canoeing were

Messrs. Bishop, Alden and Longworth, who formed the association on Lake George in 1880. Sinco that date the growth has been very large. Annual meets have been held as follows: lbSl-2, Lorna island, Lake George 1SS3, Stony lake, Ontario 1884-ii-tj, Grindstone island, Thousand islands, St. Lawrence river 1S87, Ben Arrow point, Lake Champlain 1888, Long island, Lake George 1889, Stone island. Thousand islands, St. Lawrence river 1890, Jessup's neck, Peconic bay, Long Island 1891-2, Wellshoro point, Lake Champlain 18'.i:j, lirophy's point, Thousand isriver 189-1, Croton

tennis lands, St. Lawrence point, Hudson river.

This year the asso

ciation goes for the fourth time 1o Lake Champlain. The location is about three miles south of Platt-sburg, at tin northern end of the lake. The cam]) ground is close by the celebrated Hotel Champlain, at Bluff Point, and the mess pavilion will bo supplied from that hotel. Tho grounds consist, of )5() acres of beautiful park and woodland, and tin* surroundings are very picturesque. The largest United States military ]Mist in tin east is close by, with its social attractions, dress parade, music, yuard mount, drills, etc. Au Sable chasm, ono of nature's marvels, is within easy driving distance. The visiting canoeists will share in all of those at raot ions, and the meet promises to be ono of the most, interesting and important in tho .history of lit as -ociai ion. 3utthon ici-e other attractions to Lake Champlain besides the scenery and tho pi'ospcctof a good time and delightful paddling. I:i that lake and in tho innumerab'e streams and lakos in the adjacent Adirondack- lvgion superb angling waters are. found. As a. distinctive angling water Lake Champlain is at. ike very apex. Over its whole area, of 1: 0 by 12 miles the lake is

by many beau ii'ul islands, the

largest and most piet uresquo of which arts South Hero. North Hero and Isle-la-Molte, which constitute the M,-a:id Isle county of Vermont. No fishing resort on the cont"incut boasts a purer air, freer breeze, more salubrious climate or better facilities

LOVE AND LIFE.

Sweet, we were kappy, you and I, Ere words of warfare came between Ere storms of passion swept our sky,

That all so blue and bright had been. But lilco a mad stream dashing, Its vernal tanks o'er splashing, Our swordlilco specli came flashing

And sundered all between.

Lovo, it was as tho heavens are Upon a clear and cloudless liiplit, When every golden, gleaming star

That earthward smiles is shining bright. But peace afar was driven, By jealous dotibtings driven, Till love's serenest heaven

Was turned to darkest night.

Life, it was sweet, and free from care, l~or love and faith in you were life. And hoti) in you seemed doubly fair,

Vi ho were with double fairness rife. Bat from the wordy shower Of doubt and anger's hour Sprang forth a bitter flower

To poison love and life. -C. G. Rogers in New England ilagazine.

IP? A GOOD DANCER.

The men tell me that I am a pretty ijood dancer myself, which may or may not be the case.

This, however. I will own up to, whether it is boasting or not—I do know whether a man is a good dancer or whether he is not from the very first moment my finger tips drop upon his I arm. I That mail about whom I was let in for Ko much unmerciful chaff atcmr last assembly ball is v. very good case in point. Whatever were his other drawbacks, he was undoubtedly a, good waltzer—ou8 of the best I ever danced I with.

Certainly, as it turned o^tt. ho did not dance with any other girls, bu": I don't see that that weakens my statement. Yuu cannot judge nutch of tho way a man dances by merely looking at his heels or watching the way ho handles his partner.

I know most of them would givo their I ears now to say that they had danced I with hint. They don't say so, of corns

They say they'd never have danced with a man to whom they had never beer, mtroduced. I My fascinating partner and I never were formally introduced. The thing was quite simple, and I daresay tho trick has been played thousands of times before. Ask you own brother, on his honor, if he is innocent of it.

The assembly ball was a gathering of no particular clique or set. It was a room full of people who were in a greatmeasure strangers to one another.

With this last assembly I was feeling at first more than usually out of tune, because, although I had been standing by mamma a good ten minutes, I had tip till then only ten names scrawled down on my programme, and I had no others in view.

So when a man came up from behind, bowed, addressed me by name and asked for a dance I telt distinctly glad to sjee him. He was rather tall, dark, with black eyes, black mustache and good teeth, and, for anything I knew, his name might have been Adam.

I couldn't do less than bow* slightJTK and cone rude that I had been intro 1 I to him one of the previous years. 1 also saw lit to give him waltz "No. 7," which he asked for. "And would you take compassion onmo and give me another?" .said he. "I people hero this year—at'1' hat care to dance with. ed."

know so fe-, least so few Awfnliv obi

I sup,pose the compliment was a trifle broad, but it Hckled me at the time, and, I gave him tho dance next after supper, "By tho way," raid he, "are you engaged for the 'first extra?' I suppose tluy have such a tiling?"

From that very first moment I told! myself I was in luck's way. At. tho first swtep of the waltz I knew it. By tho time we made tho first round of tho floor I felt that I could have danced on with that partner forever.

Wo danced the dance through to its very last lingering bar, and I said to my fascinating partner—a thing which I

man after a waltz, lest it should make liim unduly conceited—I said, "Thank you." "Thankyou very much," replied he. "I don't think I ever had such a delicious danco before. Could you give me another?" "You lnivo two others already," I suggested.

So I gave him the supper dance when ho asked for it, find the extras after, and tho polka before.

Ho left mo then, and for the hevf, part -ho stood with his back against a pillar, his hands in his pockets and a? very bored expression on his dark, kaiel-

I must confess that we had tho fourth together—another waltz. Those tiresome men either wouldn't dance or didn't know mo, and I saw visions of sitting it out in single blessedness, when my fascinating partner came up and saved tho situation.

Would I again take compassion on him? Might he? Thanks, so much." Soon afterward ho took mo up stairs and laughed and showed mo a snug little sitting room, which even I had not known of before. Ho said it belonged to the manager or some one and was not supposed to be used.

You seem to know tho place pretty well," said, I with tho idea of trying to find out who ho was, beeauso still I couldn't remember having ever met him before. "I think I may say I know every inch of it." "Do you live somewhere near here then? I—cr—I forget. "Not so fortunate, I'm afraid. Tho fact is, I'm a cockney. I ran down here on purpose for the dance. D'you know,'' he continued, laughing, "it's an awful jar to my feelings to discover such a thing, but I can see you don't recollect tne one little bit "It's awfully rude of me, I know, but, jou see, I come across so mdny new fi»o.s that"— "Insignificant items are forgotten. Precisely. Well, I shall keep up the in-.

cognito a little longer, and then if you cannot flatter me by remembering I shall humble myself and own up to who I am.''

My fascinating partner got up and shut the door. "Miss Conyers, does it strike you that with this dance and the next, which you had given me already, and the supper and the supper extras you have given yourself into my charge for at least three-quarters of an hour? Let me impress upon you that no one is likely to disturb us."

I didn't like his manner one little bit. I am not nervous, but I got up and said I thought it would be better to go down stairs. "Awfully sorry to differ from you, Miss Conyers, but I must ask you to stay.''

He turned the key in the lock and put it in his pocket. "Please sit clown again. Sit down, I say, Miss Conyers, and don't make a noise. I don't think any one could hear you, even if you did scream out, but if you try to make the experiment I shall be forced to resort to unpleasant measures. In fact, I shall be compelled to cram part of this antimacassar into your mouth by way of a gag. So now* you are reasonable." "What do you mean?" I g:*-ped, feeling very scared indeed. "Ko bodily harm to you unless you foreo me to it, that I swear upon my honor. And, really, after those delicious waltzes you have given me I keenly regret having to oiler you any annoyance whatever. But. Miss Conyers, business is business, t-ml 1 have been tit considerable trouble and expense to get here tonight to enjoy tho ploat-uieof your .jciety, and I jVr! sure you will understand that fonrj i.-r'..Mnr,-eiise was dao to me. I must trouble you for your diamonds. "Oh, you cannot ine .»jto"— "Miss Conyers, I am a man cf my word, and let me remind you that time presses. My carriage is waiting for me outside, and I have a long drive ahead of me. Now, must I act sis your lady's maid, cr do you prefer to unclasp tho diamonds yourself?''

With trembling fingers I took off and handed him my necklace and the bracelet and the half dozen little brooches from my corsage. "Thanks, very much," he said, slipping them deftly into his breast pocket. "And might I venture to remind you of that exquisite star which nestles in your hair? Thanks again. No other trifles ., you would like to part with? I think, my dear Miss Conyers, if you take off I your left glove you might find something interesting there. I believe I see a slight protuberance on the third finger. Thanks once more. You are too awfully good.

And now I won't bother you any further.

And he was gone, and I hoard the lock shoot in tho door, and the key was turned on tho farther side. ir ¥r

It. was a full hour before any ono me near to let mo out, and by that time my fascinating partner was far ei ougli away.

It was quite truo that lie had come down fr town on purpose for the assembly balk The pwlke said that lie was a well known London swell mobsman.

The finite n:ii:d is utterly incapable of fra:::ing an idea or of making a comparison that will properly illustrate the vast amount of water now existing in the live great oceans of our planet. Let us see: One gallon of water weighs ten pounds, and figures on the area and depth of the Pacific i-how that there aro approximately 200.000,000,000,000 of such gallons of water in that ccean alone. The Atlantic could bo put. down in the basin of the Pacific, and only fill it one-third full. The Indian, the Arctic and Antarctic oceans, combined with the other two, would give tin area for tho five of 142,000,000 square miles. Formed into a circle this would make an ocean 12.000 feet in depth and 1 000 miles from bank to bank. The contents would bo about 15)0.000,000 cubic miles of water. If a standpipo could bo built from the earth to the sun, so that wo could have a column of water Oo,000,000 miles in length, that standpipo would have to bo made.

rings at Half Mast.

The custom of flying a flag at half mast high as a mark of mourning and respect arose out of the old naval and military practice of lowering the flag in time of war as a sign of submission. Tho vanquished always lowered his flag, while the victor fluttered his own flag above it from the same staff. To lower a flag, therefore, is a token of respect to one's Kuperioi and a signal of mourning and dibfress.

Eternal Justice.

The man is thought a knave or fooi Or bigot, plotting crime, Who, for the advancement of his kind.

Is wiser than his t-imo. For him the hemlock shail distill For l.iai the ax be bared, For bin. the gibbet shall be built for him the stake prepared. Him shall the wrath anil scorn of men

Pursue with deadly aim. Ami malice, envy, spite and lies Shall desecrate his name. But truth shall conquer at thf last,

For round and round we run, And over the right comes uppermost, Ai: 1 over is justice done.

Puce through thy cell, old Socrates, Cheerily to and fro. Trust to the impulse of thy soul,

And let the poison flow. Th^y may shatter to earth the lump of clay That lmlds a light divine, Br.t they cannot quench the fire of thought

By any such deadly wine. They cannot blut thy spoken words From the memory of man By all the poison ever was bTewed

Since time its course began. Today abhorred, tomorrow a lort d, 6o round and round we run, And ever the truth comes upp -rm.ht,

And ever is justice dotie.

Plod in thy cave, gray anchorite, Be wiser than thy peers, Augment the range of human power

And trust, to coming .years. They may call thee wizard and monk accursed,

And load thee with dispraise, Thou wert- born five hundred years too soon For the comfort of thy days, But not too soon for humankind.

Time hath reward in store,

And the demons of our sires bccome The saints whom wo adore. The blind can see, the slave is lord,

So round and round we run, And ever the wrong is proved to bo wrong, And ever is justice done.

And live there now such men as these, With thoughts like the great of old? Many have died in their misery

And left their thought untold. And many live and are ranked as mad And placed hi the cold world's ban For sending their bright, farseeing souls

Three centuries in the van. They toil in penury and grief,

Unknown if not maligned, Forlorn, forlorn, bearing the scorn Of tho meanest of mankind! But yet the world goes round and round,

And the genial seasons run. And ever tho truth comes uppermost, And ever is justice done. —Charles Mackay.
