HATS AND HEADGEAR.

Grass hats are common in China and the south sea islands. Bear head helmets were common among the American Indians at the beginning of this century.

When the crest of the liberty cap was bolnted forward, it was designated a Phrygian bonnet.

Ten ktnds of caps are found on Greek ooins and monuments. The variation of style, however, was not so great as might te supposed.

The ottoman turban is made by winding lengths of muslin around a conical cap, securely stitching the muslin in place at every point.

A French "gossamer" hat has but one thiokness of muslin at the top and sides and two on the brim. It weighs between two and three ounces.

Crushed and Mutilated Beyond Recognition—Fatal Wreck in Tennessee.

WARWIGJC, N. Y., NOV. 11.—Engine No. 18 of the Lehigh and Hudson railroad blew up Sunday morning, eight miles from this place. Two men were instantly killed and two others died later from their injuries. The engine was drawing a train between Maybrook and Phillipsburg. Conductor Martin O'Neill of Belvidere and his head brakeman, James L. Sloane of Phillipsburg, were in the cab when the train started from the junction with the engineer, William Cooper of Phillipsburg, and his fireman, Herbert Beetner of Easton, Pa. The train of 30 cars had reached the top of the grade near the stone bridge, and as the train started down, cold water was doubtless rim into the boiler.

Brakeinan Morris Heil saw the explosion that followed. The heavy boiler went 50 feet in the air and fell

No Pool Contemplated.

fc".^

CLEVELAND, NOV. 11.—Harvey D. Goulder, attorney of the Lake Carriers' association, said yesterday that there was no foundation for the stoiy from Chicago concerning a pool embracing the lake steamers and railways for the control of the freight carrying business. He declared that he had heard absolutely nothing of such a combination and he was sure that nothing of the kind had been talked of by the vessel owners. In fact he believed the diversified character of the freight carried would render it impossible for the railways mid f°r the government itself, vessel owners to form a pool that would be satisfactory to the latter.

DUBUQUE, la., Nov. 11—The Iowa iron Avorks has shipped the IIOAV machinery for the torpedo boat Ericson and the trial trip Avill be held this mon' on Long Island sound should the Aveatlier prove faA'orable. On the first trial trip last fall a piston rod was pulled out and a cylinder head smashed. It Avas then supposed that the key of the piston rod had broken. On the second trial last summer a similar accident occurred, causing the death of three men, and it Avas then concluded that the cylinder head Avas too light. This defect lias been remedied in the neAV engines.

from the tracks, leaving the engine uninjured. Heil threw himself full length on a car and clung there. He recovered himself and he and Flagman 1 Adams began setting brakes. The train ran a mile and a half before it could be stopped. Heil ran six miles to Warwick and gave the alarm and Adams went back to flag the Easton express. I Superintendent Bailey, with a gang of men, went in an engine to the scene. A terrible sight met the rescuers. Conductor O'Neill was crushed and mutilated beyond recognition, the train having passed over him, Sloan hung unconscious 011 a barbed wire fence and Engineer Cooper lay dead under the boiler.

All were nearly naked, parts of their clothing hanging in the trees nearby. A little later Firemen Beetner was seen walking along the tracks, his trousers being his only apparel. He was dazed, and said he remembered going through the air and ft) and himself in afield 50 feet from the tracks. He soon relapsed into unconsciousness and was taken to Easton, where lie died in the afternoon. Brakeman Sloan died here later.

Cusoogne Arrives Safe.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—The steamer La Gaseogne of the French line arrived last night from Havre with 548 passengers on hoard. .During the voyage she encountered head winds and rough seas and on Nov. 7, an enormous sea swept over the starboard bow, carrying the first lieutenant, M. Landegren, from the bridge to the decks below, fortunately without injuring him. It was by the merest chance that he was not washed overboard. The wave which swept him away smashed the bridges, carried away stanchions, stove in the iron partition beneath the bridge and did other damage about the decks.

Bodies of Those Haneed For

the Hay-

Jmarket Massacre to Be ^Cremated.

CHICAGO, NOT. .9.—The bones of the anarchists hanged for the Hayroarket massacre are not. to rest in peace. The hodiqs of Augnst Spies, Albert Parsons, iipuis Lingg, Adolph Fischer and George Engel, now lying in Waldheim cemetery, will .be exhumed .and cremated. The, ashes will be reinterred somewhere, it is not known where, but in a spot to which those who hold the memory of these men dear may visit when they will. This was the suggestion made at a meeting of societies and tra4es unions of Chicago in Greif's hall and which was cheered with stormy vehemence. A score of speakers took it up, and each in his turn was greeted with cries of approval. There was not a dissenting voice.

The idea of such action was the outcome of the decision of the officers of Waldheim cemetery in refusing to perment the annual demonstration this year at the grave of the dead anarchists on the anniversary of their execution.

GOOD NEWS.

the

Enough Water Promised to Relieve Coal Blockade. WASHINGTON, NOV. 11.—The weather

bureau furnishes the following special bulletin to the press: Rain has fallen from New England southwestward to Texas, but the weather has been generally fair in south Atlantic states and the northwest. Very heavy rains have occurred in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky and west Tennessee, and the rains were heavy in West Virginia and western Pennsylvania, probably giving sufficient water in the upper Ohio river within the next few days to partially relieve the coal blockade. The rainfall was probably heavier betwc 1 Louisville and Parkersburg than at Pittsburg. Heavy rains will also occur in the valleys of the Cumberland and Tennessee rivers, causing sufficient water in the next few days to relieve the present strained condition of navigation.

Niagara Illvor lowest on Record, iiud Toiio of the Fall* Changed. NIAGARA FALLS, Nov. 21.—The

Niagara river is the lowest in its history. The water in the gorge, the most accurate place to measure, has gone down so perceptibly the last few days that rocks which the oldest inhabitants do not remember of seeing are now visible. There is 110 water on Table Rock, and the volume pouring over the Horse Shoe is lessened to such an extent as to change the tone of the fall. It appears as if nature has put. a cheek on the mighty river. The cause is generally low v.- iter in the lakes. Strong east, winds might dry up the river and cause trouble to the big power companies here. That, however, is almost improbable. The Tln-ee Sister islands are now collected to the mainland by dry rocks the cascades are 110 more.

Cause of Cuban Independence la Deep Seated and Agents Are at Work in Enrope as Well as in/This Country—Cuban

Republic Seems the Only Solution. Young Cuban's Experience.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—The American brig Harriet Gr. arrived at quarantine Sunday from Nuevitas, Cuba. The Harriet G. is owned by Mosle Brothers of this city and trades regularly between New York and Nuevitas. She sailed from this port on Aug. 29 last, and reached Nuevitas on Sept. 19, where she discharged her cargo. On Oct. 3 a Spanish officer with several soldiers boarded the brig and made a thorough search for a large quantity of arms which the Spanish officials had been informed were on board the vessel. The* brig was ransacked from stem to stern but no arms were found. The Spanish officer went so far as to demand that Captain Miller remove from below all his anchor chains. This the captain refused to do and the officers were reluctantly forced to leave the vessel. The United States consul was 011 board at the time but could do nothing.

Captain Miller will report the facts of the search of his vessel to the proper authorities at Washington.

There was on board the Harriet G. a young Cuban passenger named Gustava Torre, who says that he was so perse- 1 cuted by the Spanish authorities that he was compelled to leave the island and come to the United States.

Passenger's Experience.

NEW YORK, NOV. 11.—Mr. C. G. Yeley, a Cuban who has been in Spain 011 a mission in the interest of the insurgent cause, arrived in New York Sunday 011 the steamer Yeendam. He said that lie expects to lead an expedition to Cuba in the near future. His father, he said, is in Paris, where he is doing good work in the cause of Cuban independence.

Mr. Yeley gave it as his opinion that it is now too late for the Spanish government to offer concessions to the struggling Cubans, as the insurgents are in good condition and expect soon the consummation of their hopes in a Cuban republic.
