HEAD OF MICE ' BRAIICII RETIRED

Major General Elliott, with a Wonderful Fighting Record, Ends Career.

Time is the Test

(American Kw Service) . Washington. D. C, Not. 30. The official life of a gallant warrior eipird today when, by reason of the fact that he had reached hla sixty-fourth birthday annlveraary. Major General George F. Elliott, commandant of the United States Marine Corps, was retired from active service. The retirement or Gen. Elliott is understood to be the prelude to a complete reorganisation of the Marine Corps, according to plans whlcb have been under consideration for some time by the Secretary of the Navy, Meyer. Until these plana are thoroughly worked out and the necessary sanction of congress obtained, It is probable that the Corps will be placed In charge of an acting commandant. A Gallant Record. It li a gallant and hlshly creditable record that Gen. Elliott leaves upon the pages of tbe oldest branch of the fighting service of the country, of which he has been In command for

more than seven years. A native of

Alabama, he was appointed a second lieutenant In the Marine Corps from New York, in 1870. After serving on various ships and at the navy yards in Portsmouth, Brooklyn and Norfolk," he reached the grade of first lieutenant. In 1885 he was with the battlllon of engineers which rendered such efficient service on the Isthmus of Panama, when the American naval forces commanded by Rear Admiral Jonett were landed there for the protection of American Interests. . ' At the outbreak of the war with Spain, Gen. (then Colonel) Elliott was assigned to duty with the Marine battalion of the North Atlantic squadron nd served with special distinction In the engagements at Gaantanamo, Cuba. In 1899 he was sent to the Philippines In command of the Second Battalion of Marines and behaved with. conspicuous gallantry In the engagement at Novaleta In October of that year. For his behavior on that occasion he was specially recommended for promotion by Major General Otis, commanding the United States troops In the Philippines., Colonel Elliott was broken down by his services In the Philippines and was sent to the Naval hospital at Mare

The Testimony of Richmond People .Stands the Test. Tbe test of time Is what tells the tals. Tbe public coon finds out when misrepresentations are ma do and merit alone will stand tbe test of time. Richmond people appreciate merit, and many' months ago local citizens publicly endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills; they do so still. Would a citizen make a statement which follows unless convinced that the article, was Just as represented? A cure that lasts is the kind that every suffered from kidney Ills Is looking for. Enoch Cromer, 309 N". Fourteenth street, Richmond, Ind.. says: "I have no need of Doun'a Kidney Pills since they cured me of kidney trouble In 190C. At that time I gave a statement for , bl lent Ion. recommending , this remedy and I do not wish to withdraw anything from that testimonial. Railroading Is very hard on the kidneys and my case was no exception to the rule, an I suffered from kidney complaint for nom time. The papsasps of the kidney secretions were IrreKiilar and painful and I often felt dizzy and wpak.. Italng advised to try Doun's Kidney, Pills.. I procured a box at A. G. Luken & Go's Drug Store and

their use brought prompt relief. In a(

abort time I was entirely free from kidney trouble and since then whenever I have heard anyone complaining of backache. I have advised a trial of Doan's Kidney 1111s. For sale by ali dealers.

BY FLORENCE FAIRBANKS. ; New York, Nov. 30. This is Indeed, a season of velvet and never has that beautiful material been more fashionable tnaa at the present time. But velvet Is by no means a cbeai material and, to satisfy the demand of the multitude of women. 'who w.i-,Id like to follow the fashion but have not the means of buying tbe reil velvet, tbe manufacturers have put on the market various grades of velcteen which resemble velvet and cost a great deal less. There are also some cheap grades of velvet and these will undoubtedly find a ready sale. ; Although elaborate gowns in velvet are extremely costly, momea of limited means but sensible and possessing good taste, will be able to find many smart things in velvet, not toj expensive for their means. Trig little one-piece frocks in velvet or velveteen of excellent' quality are' made up fcr trotting and afternoon wear in black and in all the rica deep, colors and there are charming models of this tyic too ia tbo biac'i" velveteen with white line stripe. i ..- ' Many of the manufacturers bate made the mistake o? cbsapoalns the appearance of these little velveteen frocks by giving tbera pretentious trimmings that mast be coarse if the model Is to be reasonable as to price. But it is possible to find moJela trimmed very simply in satin cords and buttons or modish braids, wbicb are really delightful. More expensive frock3 on similar lines but with touches of handsome hand embroidery, lightly used on the bodice, are exceedingly good looking .for daytime weir under a fur ccat or a coat of the frock material. Coat and

frock models in these name fine velveteens have beeu turned out by all the best makers and are at their best trimmed in braid or satin and with ur without fur, many women preferring iiem made without fur so that they may be wora with separata fur sets. I. ; v; Black, the very deep ruven blue, a dark prune and several shades of pray, purple and violets on the mulberry order, kafflr and other dark browns and taupe are the coloring mo?t cften seen ia these comparatively simple street and afternoon frocks, and for thet' matter la the handsomer velvet models as well, though in these one finds a greater variety of coloring and many interesting color combination?".. . " - One finds considerable originality in the girdles cf the season. Some are smoothly drawn and shaped. in il e back. rLs.'KS bf?h to meet the V of a pointed or surpliced opening and continuing in a tra?u or sash ends down the skirt, while the front section of the girdle is a little narrower and draped. In other models one finds 'nly a heavy cordeliere, often in dull gold or silver, defining the waist 1? e, knotted at the middle or left front and falling in long end3 finished I y handsome tassels or ornaments. A clever girdle arrangement seen on ne of the models, wes a big soft cord of dull gold tissue and a similar cc d of black velvet twisted very loose together around the waist, knotted ttgether and falling in two ends, cne gold end by a tasse" of gold beads. This girdle was, by the way. used on a very chic model of checked black End white velvet over which was a tunic of black mousseline de soie veiled In a Eecond layer of white mousseline de scie. There was gold lacs HUl on the black mousseline tinder the white mousseline, across the bodice and tunic bottom and the tunic, was edged by black velvet and narrow lines of skunk. . . Black combined with royal or nattier blue is to be very popular this season. Tbe great advantage of this mixture of colors is that it is becoming alike to fair or dark women, whether young or of advancing years; and It Is always more or less in favor, - Models of the great houses are often simple In design, tbe reason of their artistic effect resulting from the disposition of the trimming; so that a woman of moderate Income but unerring taste can work wonders by planning out her own frocks. . For afternoon .wear a bit of gold in addition wonderfully enlivens a dress, and is generally becoming to the complexion. Gold embroidery and lace are immensely in vogue. If a black house-dress be chosen, soften it. with a line of blue at the top of the collar, or several rows of chain stitch in gilt thread. A gold dangling collar at the base of the throat, or a turquoise or aquamarine pendant, makes all-black less trying and removes the suggestion of mourning. - Unrelieved black is not, as a rule, becoming, and least of all to the woman past her first youth. A touch of blue, however, will usually be sufficient to give the needed relief.

AN ALL AROUND ORDEAL Whn Papa Wn Getting Ready t Attend a Banquet.-"... ' " Papa was going iu a banquet. It was unusual for bim to attend banquets o unusual, in fact, that "ie children bad boasted of It for a. week to all who would bear. . ... Now It was the night of the banquet, and fiapa was getting ready, and tbe ouce quiet and orderly bouse wa much upset. "Run oa out." said mamma, "and don't botber , your father while be" drws-

imr: Papa was shaving and at the same, time committing a speech to j memory in caw be should be called J upon for something Impromptu. j The tiny trickles of "blood down his I chin , showed where the sihh-cU was J jrettlug the better part of hi atfenlion. On the lcd lay a clean white J

shirt, and across a chair bung papa's dress clothes. lie hadn't 'wcra tbe tire clothe for two years and was considerably stouter uow. After awhile the children, crouch-

' '' Through the keyhole the children saw "papa straggle into bis coat. Th sttflT shirt rose almost to his ears, and a high collar nearly sawed them off. -"DoKgone itr wailed papa. "The rleeves of tlls coat are a mile toe short." Then his Khocs hurt him; he couldn't pet bl tie fixed right; bis handker

chief was hopelessly massing, and finally he stood miserably in the middle of tbe rloor. . . .'. i

His face was red. the perspiration poured dowu bis nose, his thin bittr stood up, and he was about the most uncomfortable looking iK-rson the children had ever seen. "Now. then." said mamma, with a sigh, "you're fixed. Tou have no idea, dear, how nice you look.' "Oh. yes." ipa snarled. "I look nice, I don't think." Then be found his bat and a light coat and stalked stiffly and uncomfortably out. The children, hiding, bebtud the stair railing, saw him depart. , "Gee." said the tittle boy. "when 1 get big I won't go to any dinners. They can bring. mine." . "You'll have to." said bis sister wisely. "Men always have to go to dinners. But they dresj up funny, don't they?" -Galveston nwk.
