WOMAN'3 READING,

ft Iccotsiitercy cf Mia Faalü of lrasrian Girto Its 7omea Kisarly ? Peanal Intlaenc In Politic Mab' Attire for Womee ITcal'a la a Name? Concerning Womn, Tbo locoDitnUccr ot Men. A WTiter in tbe Boston Traveler devotes a third of areola mn to prove that a woman's -weafcnea is her foot. Well, what If it ia? Have men a weakness? We suppose not. We might call them eccentricities, peculiarities or Inconsiatancies, and their name is legion. Did yoa ever hear a man snore? Did j on ever hear that same individual acknowledge that he snored? Certainly -not. Did you ever know a man to acknowledge that he waa vain of his personal appearance? Never, but he never was known to like the young lady who remarked that he was not handsome. Did yon ever know a man who did not say to his wile that he "liked to see a lad; dressed plain and'senaible." But when a lady in a plain and sensible dress enters a car where this same man is seated, and she may stand an hour before he oflers Lr his seat. Did you ever hear a man talk about "abominable bangs," and teil his wife that it would cot be exactly conducive to his personal safety and peace of mind, it she should trim her front hair, that wouldn't fcirt with any giil with bangs that would notice him. Did you ever see a man get a little bit sick that didn't think he was going to die, and require the entire attention of the family, the near relatives and the neighbors? In a few days after the wife has a iauch worse attack, but because she patiently bears it and tries to keep np, don't he invariably say, "You might complain if yoa should ever get as Bick as I was last week." Did you ever see a man that did not possess a tublime contempt for the "gessip" cf women that didn't get ail the "news" at his business place or club long before bis wife hears it through the gossip chancels. Did you ever hear a man ai fault with himself? Not much, when there is generally BO me one convenient to Shoulder the blame quietly. This might be called their greatest inconsistency, and has bfen handed down from Adnm, subject to all modern improvements. These evidences of strength in man could be enumerated indefinitely. In proportion to the weakness of women they are ten to one. Faults of American Glrli. Count Cbapolsky has written a very inlereeticg letter to the New York Mail in which he discusses the faults of American girls of the present day, and after giving instances of the precocity of the little sills and tbe loudness of the older ones, rests the blame where it rightfully belongs with tbeir mothers. From his observations of the behavior of the daughters of thf people of high social position and wealth at soma of our fashionable resorts, and cf the conversation icdulged in by theaa young girls and their parents he finds that tbeir sole object in life is to -hsve a good time," which It seems consists in whistling, shouting and taking long drives without a chaperon, and screaming out popular songs as well as dancing at all boars of the night. He 6ays: "When a man remembers wnat an adorable being a true, womanly, gentle girl can be, even without the gift of beauty, he is not to be blamed for asking. What do these girls eventually become? What do they propose for themselves, ana hat do tbeir mothers propose lor them? We give it up, but know what dont become of them. It is not this kind of a girl a man wants when he comes to select a wife. It is not this kind of a girl who marries earheet and makes the best match. It is tot atind of a girl who manages the eervaCrTs. runs the sewing machine and makes an excellent wife and a happy home, bat it is this kicd of a girl who is hear! to ask in astonishment, "What could he ever have Feen in that plain, quiet, little creature to love!" Are Women Miserly? Mr. Howells sajs that women consider all expenditures extravagant that is not directed toward dress, that they delight to haggle over a bargain, and show a miserly 3pirit In all their dealings. He says they patronize cheap restaurants, and that if they give to charities it Is in a niggardly manner. In reply to these accusations it must be rememoered that unless the woman has a lortnne in her own right, or is working on a salary, that she ha a uo money of her own . and is using the income or earnings of her husband. There are a great variety of husbands in the world, and while the majority Of men want their wives to dres3 well, they rarely give them a great allowance for other purposes, and necessarily are compelled to economize. It is a lamentable fact that while the duties, responsibilities and hard work of pome women exceed those of her husband, and the uncomplainingly shares all of the partnership burdens, the line is drawn when it comes to the disposition of the cash. If she should want a dollar she is compelled to ask for it like a child, and there is no woman of any spirit that dees not feel humiliated by thus doing. There is no good reason why a woman who Is qualified to attend to the never-ending duties of wife and mother, that does not 0 poscess just as good judgment In the disposal of the money of the firm, but they seldom have the opportunity. Female latlaeoca In Politics. In England it is a well-knrwn fact that the female relations of a political candi date are often poweifal ti 'j in securing success, sajs the Boston Heiald. In this country female influence In politics la one that has not been greatly utilized, and a candidate's chance for success would be materially lessened, were it known he was using this means of securing popularity, and yet it is admitted to be an indirect ad vantage to a public ofEcer to have an at tractive em ale relation to represent him before the people. It is said that eastern tewns, recently visited by Mrs. Cleveland, win go solidly for ber husband in conse quence of her affability and easy and pleasant way ol recieving people. Sue Waa Frightened. "Did yon feel the shock of the earth quake?"' said one Indianapolis woman to another. "Oh ye," she replied, "and yoa can't imagine what a terrible fright it caused rue. do you Know that at first I felt sure that there was a horrid man ander the ltd, and I was so relieved when I found that It was only an earthquake." Hu'i Attire for Womea There Is a growing demand for man's at tire for woman In Paris on tbe ground that it is more serviceable, and above all more conducive to health than woman's dress. Man's felt hats have been largely taken Jnto war by women. A cable letter In the 2ew York Time? sajs vh!t Ul caenMi

hats are all the rage at the watering places, trtl lor lawn tennis playing. Traveling suits for August are almost exclusively made of gray alpecs, with a vest of white pique and a soft felt man's hat of cafe alait thsdr, witb a Ion? veil of delicate blue wound aiound the throat.

TTIiata In m Nam? The parents of a well-known society telle in Litchfield, 111., did not object so much to the young man, but it was his name that struck terror to their souls, and accordingly forbade their daughter to accept tbe attentions of Mr. B jlkermuehl. The lovers laughed at bolts and bars, eloped and were married in the usual way, and row they are B3 happy a pair of Bolkemmet is as ever Moped. Since they are permanently hitched may they journey peacefully through life, and in ascending the rugged hills never balk nor attempt to kick out of the traces. The Lucky Man. Fair maid, wilt thou give me aotna Where 3 J I may know it tbou'rt mine? I am not a cashier, A coachman, nor peer. Eat I pitch in a crack base ball nijn, Concerning Woman. Queen Victoria Is mourning the death of her old nurse, who died at the age of nine-ty-four. Mrs. Hubbard, wife of Hon. Richard B. Hubbard. United States Minister to Japan, died at NIckko July 0. Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher is to write a series of articles on Woman's Dress, Education, Marriage, 8ociety, etc. The first article will appesr in October. Mrs. Gen. Grant entertained the Union and Confederate chaplains at Ocean Grove on Saturday last. The reception is said to have been one of the most Interesting features of the reunion. The united fortunes of twelve of tbe wealthiest women in the United States is moie than 112,000,000. If it is easier for a camel to go through the eya of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven, what are the chances for these rich women, since it is an accepted fact that "man embraces woman?" A Brooklyn young woman has married a Chinaman six years younger than her self. Ehe is epoken of as "one of the brightest youcg women connected with the Central Avenue Congregational church," which statement places the duller ones in an unenviable light. However, if he has not become so Americanized as to psrt with his "pigtail"' she will have a decided advantage over women with bald-headed husbands. The Woman's News, edited by L. May Wheeler, with Nettie Hantfard as business maxager, Is meeting with the substantial scccets it richly merits. Mrs. Wheeler's journalistic ability and earnest advocacy of all that pertains to the best interests of woman is well known to the citizens of Indianapolis. The current number is unusually bright and interesting, and tells of bo many tbhigs that are helpful and useful to woman, and of the progression of woman's work in its various branches, that we more than ever feel that it should be a constant visitor in every home. Another Itrave Gtrl. I Shelter Island Letter to Mail and Express. The guests of tbe Manhanset had quite a sensation on Thursday, and a young laiv from 8t. Louis, one of their number, who showed remsrkable bravery, is the heroine of the hour. While a numbsr of petrous from the hotel were bathing, one of them, Mr. Gecrse T. Bain, of tbe St. Louis PostDispatch, was suddenly taken with cramps and immediately ta&k. Miss Nina Matthews, also of St. Louis, who is staying at the Manha.'set, and who is an expert swimmer, dived and succeeded in bringleg Mr. Bain to tbe surface, but In his struggles be seized her in such a way that both of them sank. A general alarm was given, assistance came, and both were res cued by some gentlemen, who dived and brought tbem safely to snore. Mr. mln weights about one hundred and seventyfive pounds, and the young lady who sought to rescue him not over one hundred. The guests at the hotel are arrang ing a testimonial ot their admiration ot her bravery, which will soon be presented to her. THE REIGNING STYLES; Ihe Latest Information on Dress What Ladles and Gentlemen are Wearing. The extreme warm weather of the past month has had its effect in causing ladies to pay less attention to elaborate toilets, and lounging gowns have become more prominent than heretofore. It is no small task to array one s self in full dress when the thermometer marks tbe nineties, and the good husband or bean, as the case may be, should be very generous if hi3 love is not quite so beautifully robed in the period of sweltering weather as he is wont to find her at other times. Speaking of lounging robes the latest conceit in these useful and serviceable garments waj entirely of Irish linen handEomiily decorated with ferns and leaves. It was a novelty worth looking at. Mull dreases, plain and exquisitely ornamented, assists in adding to the appearance of belles. Bourette suits are becoming quite popular, tbe pink and blue ones being looked upon with especial favor. Liberal consideration is being given to the elegant silk and lace suits which have commanded attention more than ever this season, acd ladies have evinced a preference for them in the most decided manner. There are few figures that the two-piece white French lawn costumers are not becomicg to, consequently it is not surprising that they are well-liked. They are handsomely embroideried and finished in the most tasteful manner. Etherial looking white nun's veiling enita impart attractiveness to most young ladies. A pretty lawn suit finished with panels of embroidery and fnll drapery, make it a a sty mn costume beyond question. Young ladies are growing a trifle enthu siastic over the rollitaire str'pa shawls. which are presented in cardinal, black and blue shades. Quite an interest is shown over the display of Chudda shawls, and the shades of garnet and old gold, in which they are being displayed, makes them somewhat unique in appearance. For the mountains a plain serge suit, made with a plain lound skirt, quite short. a blouse waist or Jeisey, and a widebrimmed hat Is the thing. The most acceptable house dresses for the country are those pretty organdies which are gotten np with such exquisite taste by our ekililul modistes. The coachman's style of parasol is most in vogue. The changeable silk ones are having an unexpected run. Not a few gentlemen wear fine linen handkerchiefs about their necks in lieu of collars on hot days, which is a commendable innovation and one that should be more generally followed. Wide troupers for fall is what the tailors portend. Black silk hats are worn all through the Bummer season and, followicg the London lashion, are considered quite correct. Tan-colored kids ate still retained in fa vor and vie. even in this warm weather. with the beautiful silk mitts which have been offered in such innumberable and handsome varieties. Hand-made CTOcbeied buttons, tipped with jet, fasten all dreesea ana ate ex tremely ornamental. Frirged and corded edges continue in lashion. Neapolitan straws are made up with al temate stripes of let.

Milan, satin, rough and English straws can be procured In all the fashionable colors going. All-gold embroidered laces and bonnet fabrics are popular. Terra cotta cloth basques, with velvet collar and cafis, are worn with plastrons and knit skirts of striped light and dark terra cotta summer silk. Fretty rosettes are seen upon the back o! the newest and choicest wraps. Black Buede gloves are correct with all costumes.

China crere is made over black silk for dinner toilets. Narrow mohair braid will decorate tbe basques, pacels, wristbands and collars of autumn costumes. Simplicity and daintiness Is the charm of a summer toilet. Ladies should remember this. Flannel, terce. faced cloth and chevolts are employed in the making of misses' riding habits, and they look pretty and appropriate wr en finished with braid and machine stitching. While in mourning, jewelry should not be worn, f with the exception of the watch. which may be, providing a black silk guard is worn instead of a chain. OLD TIME CAMP MEETING. A Few Ioterescg Facts as Gathered from O oxen, Dlato A charter Inpon camp-meetings may be relished by the readers of the Sentinel now that many have returned from them, and Others are still worshiping in the woods. After looking through our old church histories,dating back more than three quarters of a century, we refer to the history of the Church in this country, we find the first mention made of camp or grove meetiDgs made in tbe year 1S0O. The first meeting of tbe;kind seems to have been divinely ordered, as those who figured most conspicuously in it had no intention whatever of holding one. It came upon them like the spirit came upan the primitive Christians on the day of rente cost. Upon the banks of the lied River in Ken tucky about eighty years asro, there stood a rude Presbyterian church where a small congregation worshipped. Their pastor was Rev. Mr. McGready. About the same time there lived in West Tennessee a Hev. Wm. McGee, a Presbyterian minister, and bis brother, Bev. John McGee, who was a Methodist minister. They were young men, the purity of whose lives was known to all the people, and they were as zealous for Christ ana His cause as they were good. Though holding parchments from different church organizations, and dluering widely in their views upon the extent of the atonement, they worked harmoniously for tbe conversion ol sinners and the spread of the gospel, just as brothers should do. They felt that they were called of God to go over into Kentucky upon an evangel istic tour. Coming upon the Presbyterian Church mentioned and learning that it was a sacramental occasion, they tarried over the Sabbath. John McGee preached. and tbe spirit of God fell upon tbe people in copious showers. When the time came to close the service it was found impossible to do so. The numbers of worshippers and attentive listeners increased every bour. Convictions and conversions multiplied. Not far from the church house was a beautiful grove upon a ridge known as Cane Ridge. The people were invited to this grove where all could be accommodated. Wagon covers were brought from farm houses, and other ma terials from which booths or tents were cor8tincted. Provisions were brought from the surrounding country and the peo ple were fed and the work Of the spirit went on until cot less than twenty thous and people had been to bear, see and worship frrm the first to tbe last of the meet ing . i rom tbe location ot th grove it be came known as the "Cane Ride Camp Meeting" in the history of the church in that part of the Stale. There are people etill living who are familiar with the history of the "Cane Ridge campmeeting of Kentucky," while many ol tue hundreds who were converted then are with the angels of God now. As we have said, this meeting was doubtlesss by divine order. It was God's meeting out in the magnificent temple of His own workmanship. Since those days camp-meetings have been very popular especially among Methodists, who have been want to hold them in various country places during tne summer mouths. Originally they were a necessity, as there were but few church buildings, and the people came together L-oa longer distances than they do now. Camp-meetings are no longer a necessity in this country, and such rreetiEgs have become mere places of resort and recreation, places of pleasure acd gossip. Convictions and conversions at camc-meetioea are incidents of the past. A pure, genuine old fashioned conversion at a cemp-meeting now-a-days would be as astonishing as some of the critoriral flights of Sam Jones. From camp-meetings came the idea of waterirg-places, resorts, parks, etc., all of which ia well enough when used and not abused, but to attach to them the idea of relgious gatherings is simplv preposterous. As a rule religious people who attend them backslide instead of being confirmed in tbe faith. Some of them do not rise to the plane of even intellectual entertainments, to say nothing of their purifying (?) influence upon the hearts of the youth of the country. Pclpii. Indianapolis, Angust 13. A STRANGE DELUSION. Mrs. Cameo, of Loocootee, lad , Sees the Wraith of tier Motbr.ia-Law. Evansvllle Courier. From a gentleman who arrived on the south bound train yesterday, The Courier heard tbe following'strange story, which he vouched for: Sunday evening Mr. Thomas Carrico and his wife, of Loogootee, were seated in front of their residence, when Mrs. Carrico called the attention of her husband to a woman walking toward them on the sidewalk, who, when reaching the gate, stopped. Mr. Carrico replied he saw no one, and Mrs. Carrico became terribly frightened. David fl. Carrico waa called from an adjoining room, who also assured her that there was no one at the gate. Mrs. Carrico gszed searchingly toward the apparition and fell shrieking to the ground in a fainting fit. A physician and neighbors were called in. After restoring her to consciousDess she avered that she saw her mother-in-law, Mrs. Dave Carrico. who had been dead three months, dressed in tbe usual garb she wore In life. Mrs. Carrico does cot believe in spiritualism, but she firmly believes it was an omen of death sent to her from tbe other world. She was apparently enjoying good health. Last night tbe Washington Dally Ga zette arrived here giving the same story more in detail, and commenting on it in another colnmn the Gazette says: "This is an old story In a new place with new characters, iso kind of mental dein sion has so firm a hold upon the ham an mind as that which relates to the reappear, ance of the dead. Delusions, like the mirage, are easily dispelled, bnt hundreds can be found to-day whose belief in ghosts is unimpaired. There was a time In Rome when the "sheeted ghosts did squeak and gibber in tbe streets," as every true Roman believed. The Indian theory ot the journey of tbe soul to the happy hunting grounds, as illustrated in their putting food upon his burial shed, is like our belief in ghosts, haunted houses, etc. It Is a manifestation of a similar faith by different methods." Haunted houses are dally becoming fewer In number. On account of a fright which a gentleman received while sleeping one night fifteen or twenty years ago in a house southeast of the city, the room he peopled was 8&14 t? fc? tuat?3

one would sleep in it. It stood for years unchanged, even the window curtains remaining as they were. A member of the family who did not believe in haunts, etc., slept in the room upon coming home after the lapse of several years and the next morning commented upon the beautiful eflectot the whit window curtains waving in the breeze. This was the ghost In another house some evil spirit came into a certain room and upset the chairs. Investigation showed, in the coursa of a j ear, that the owner's mother, an aged lady robed in a white sleeping sown, was a

somnambulist,and always went to that particular room, turned over the chairs, and went back to bed. CONGRESSMAN MATS ON, A Brief Talk with htm on LegUlatlre and Political AS airs. The Sentinel's sanctum, last evenlmr. was made cheerful, by the presence of Hon. C. C. Matson, of Greencastle, who is in the city on business and pleasure. Con versation, as might be expected, took a retty wiae range, in tue course of which oL Matson, while declining to bs inter viewed, remarked: "The next Congress la bound to agree upon some plan to reduce the revenue of the government to an extent that will put a stop to the accumulation of a large surplus In the treasury, and I am confident that such a plan will be devised and carried through." "Another vexatious question is to get rid of the present surplus. How that can be (one, is well calculeted to tax the statesmanship of the period. A number of suggestlccs have been made but nothice so fir seems to have crystalized in the pubWith regard to the reduction of taxation. CoL Matson is of the opinion that tobacco, tbe poor man's luxury, comfort and solace, should be relieved of some of the burden imposed upon it by the present laws, but that spirits and fermented; liquors can af iora to pay present taxation. Tbe Colonel was emphatic in his declara tions that Grover Cleveland will be the next nominee of the Democratic nrtv and ought to be. "He is," said the Colonel, tue Biggest man in tue democratic party, and the best President the country has ever had since the days of Andrew Jackson. I have heard of but one Democrat in Indiana who has said he would not vote for Cleveland. He is as popular as ever with the independent Republicans, and more of tbem will vote for him in 1SS3 than did in 1S34." lieferioeto gubernatorial candidates of the Democratic pursuasion. the Colons! said it was too early to discuss such propositions. The Colonel thought tbe time had come for tbe Democracy of Indiana to unite on Cleveland, as any division udou that question could only help the Republican party in the coming campaign. The Colonel was accompanied by his con, a youth in his early teens, and being Eomething of a boy hlmsslf thsy will take in the circus to-day. OUTLOOK FOR THE STATE FAIR. A New Horticultural Ualldlog Propoaed Effect ot the Drouth. The State Board of Agriculture is considerirs the advisibility of erecting anew horticultural building at the exhibition crounds. The plan submitted outlines a buildicg with four wings, each twenty leet in length, projecting out from a com mon center, where a fountain will he erected. Tbe total cost will exr eel $1,500. Secretary Heron reports the number of applications for space for the coming fair Is simply wonderful. One man who is constantly employed at the grounds In markleg ou space is herdiy suiiicient to do the work. Over one hundred applications came in yesterday. From a business standpoint the State Fair will be a success, jail ing from present Indications. The droutu may have seme depressing eSsct, however, Secretary Heron thinks the late dry weather will prove a blessing from the fact that it heralds an abundant crop next year. In 1331 there was no rain fall from the 20th of June until the 10th of September. Farmers who were in attendance at the Fair looked discouraged and felt that they were almost ruined. They shipped all tbeir stock on to market for fear that they had not enough grass to winter them. JJutwhen tne dry weather broke the grass began to grow as it never did before. There was scarcely any winter and the next spring the crop was the heaviest the country has ever seen. Reducing ?the Surplus. Philadelphia Times. The test way to cut down the surplus rtvenne is to dig it out by the roots 80 that it won't grow up. INDIANA FAIRS. List of the Connty and District Fatrs Throughout the State.

A WORD-HrST FOR HOT WE ATHER COMPETITION BY ALL READERS. ' Since the loss of his wasrer on the "Epigram" hunt, L'Lcle Charlie has been looking about for some new word competition with which to perries the readers of the Sentinel. He dow be lieves he has succeeded in devising what he has wisrea. Taking the word "Rat," h9 proposes that everybody shall try to build the largest possible numoer of words by addidg other letters to tbofe three. For the largest list ao made he will present a Waierbury watch, a Ireally good timeKeeper nuu n very aesir&oie prize; sua ior enca ot the next three liste ia slzahewiil award a lire book. The contest will be governed by these rules: 1. All words must be defined In the body of Webster's I'nabribged Dic.ioiary, exclusive of supp ement and appendices. 2. No word will be allowed unless It contains the three letters of "rat" without transposition or separation by other letters. 3. Words having "rat" as the first three letters will form an exception and will not be admitted, aa all auch may be copied in regular order from the dlctonary. 4. Different words, even when the meaning la the same, but one spelling can count oilv as oneword.no matter ho it many definitions it may have. 5. Tbe words ol each list should be arranged In alphabetical order, and numbered. C. In case of a tie preference will be given lor the one of the trying lists from which fewest words are rejected for violation of these rules. 7. Ail lists must be sent in before September 10. A few specimens of the allowable words are thtse: 1, Crate: 2, Hydrate; 8, Oration. Send the others, whether the list bd twenty or fifty or a hundred. In this contest the competitors will be much Icfs aided by directions than in other word hunts, so that non-posssssorg of such ref erence books may have a chance to win.

THE HYDROPHOBIC CURE. The Practical Results ol the Pasteur Treat ment A Wonderful Showing:. I London Times. According to the report of the perpetual secretary, the number of persons subjected at the institute to the Pasteur treatment dnrirg the fourteen mouths from the end of October, 18n, to the end of December, 18SC, waa, in all, 2,632. Of this number 2, IG I had bsea bitten by animals known for certain to have be9n mad at the time of biting, aud the remaining 518 by animals suspected to have been mad. Of the 2,161 bitten by animals undoubtedly mad, and treated a:cording to Tasteur'a method, 29 persons died, representing a proportionate mortality ot 1 31 per cent Ol the 513 bitten by animals presumed to be mad, and subjected to Pasteur's treatment, only 2 died I. e., 0.33 per cent. Now, the statistics of rabies before the discovery and application of the Pasteur method give the proportion of mortality from that disease among the persons affected by it as at lowest 10 per cent. If, then, the 2,164 persons in the State de ecribed had Dot been treated by the Pasteur method, the cases ot mortality among them, according to the determination of the statistics, would have been, not 29, but 440. That is to say. ot the 2.1C1 persons, 317 owe their present existence to Pasteur's method. Looking next exclusively to the most dangerous cases, we find that there were 43 persons bitten by mad wolves, 180 persons bitten on the head or face by animals presumed to be mad. Of the 4S In question 7 died i. e., a mortality of 11 per cent. The mortality in Blmilar ca9es before the Pasteur method is ascertained to hayebeen GO to &0 per cent. Moreover, three of the forty-eight persons had actually broken out in rabies before the application of the treatment, and their deaths may therefore be kit out of account, thus reducing the mortality of this class under the Fisteur treatment to 8 per cent, as against C9 to 80 percent without the Pasteur treatment. Of the ISO specified the number of persons who died was nine, or 4.83 fit cent, as as against 83 per cent without tbe Pasteur treatment. That Is, out of 186, 1C3 would have died but for the Tasteur treatment, whereas, with the Pasteur treatment only pise died.
