BOR INGKIWOIJ., ON "THE BIBLE." Robert G. Ingersoll will deliver his great lecture on "The Bible" at Naylor's" Opera House, Monday evening, April 27th, and is certain to attract a big audience. In this lecture, for the first time, Col. Ingersoll reviews the entire Bible from Genesis to Revelations, displaying, it is said, a most profound knowledge of the Scriptures. "The Bible" has been termed the grand •climax of the Colonel's numerous assaults upon revealed religion. Upon the occasion of the initial presentation of "The Bible" in New York, Col. Ingersoll prefaced this discourse with the following characteristic statement: "Ladies and Gentlemen—Somebody ought to tell the truth about the Bible.

Ministers dare not do it they would be driven from the pulpit. The presidents of the colleges dare not do it they would lose their places. Politicians dare not do it they would be defeated. The editor dare not do it, for fear he would lose circulation. The rich man dare not do it, for he would lose caste. Merchants dare not do it, fearing they would lose trade even a clerk dare not do it, for he would be discharged—so I thought I would do it myself." The sale of seats for Colonel Ingeraoll's lecture will begin at Buntin's Monday morning, April 90th, one week in advance. A OHKAT DHAMATIC EVENT DRAWING

Alpae* ud Xoh*ir» SK?1

Here is ft flood of informafeidti about alpaca and mohair, which will be worn more ever as crepon declines in favor. It is supplied Tyr one who knows all abont it He says:

Mohair is the fleece of the Angora goat, grown in the orient and at the Gape, and is the most lustrous animal fiber known. In its natural e#ite it is white and can consequently be dyed to any color. Alpaca is the fleece of the animal of that name, also of the goat family (llama is a near relation), and is grown in South America. In its oral state it is black, brown or pie1! with a very small proportion otf whi Consequently it can only be dyed a color, generally black. Whenever, ths fore, yon see a luster dress which lighter than dark gray yon may be sure it is mohair, especially if it has a peculiar sparkle which is something like that of a newly broken piece of lump sugar. Alpaca, being somewhat* finer and softer than mohair, is mostly used for coat linings, but it is also made into dress goods in its natural gray. It was Introduced and intended for linings, but was taken up by a whim of fashion for dresses and had a great run 80 years ago. Its popularity gave the name of alpaca in a rough and ready way to all bright goods, although most of them are made from mohair and many of them from English wooL —Philadelphia .Ledger. .y

Foibles of the New Woman. Within the past 40 years woman has demanded of man much that he has graciously granted her. She wanted equality with him, and it has been given her in all things for which she is fitted and which will not lower the high standard of womanhood that he desires for her. This she accepts without relinquishing any of the chivalrous attentions which man always bestows upon her. The new woman tells us that "an ounce of justice is of more value to woman than a ton of chivalry." But when she obtains her "ounce of jr-stice" she apparently still makes rigorous demands that her "ton of chivalry" be not omitted. Woman asked to work by man's side and on his level, and today she has the chance of so doing. The fields of knowledge and opportunity have been opened to her, and she still desires that of which her grandmother did not dream, because, like an overindulged child, so long as she is denied one privilege that privilege she desires above all others. She has decided that without the ballot she can do nothing, for, in her vocabulary, ballot is synonymous with power. —Mrs. Frank H. Winston in Forum.

Anna D. Clemmer.

Mrs. Anna D. Clemmer, the dairy commissioner of the state of Colorado, is an energetic woman who has done much for the west. She was born in Danbury, Conn. Her husband's health failing, she accompanied him to Colorado. Reared in a home of plenty, an only daughter, Mrs. Clemmer had never known a hardship until called upon to face pioneer life in Colorado. Today she is described as a handsome, self reliant, progressive woman, whose gray eyes look out frankly upon the world and at the duties of life Tmflinchingly. She is in the prime of life and a busy woman. She lives at Boulder, where, besides a pleasant home, she has a Jersey herd, and with her own hands makes 200 pounds o? butter a month. Two miles from Boulder she has a hay ranch of 160 acres and 1,000 chickens, to all of which she gives her personal attention, besides looking after her office in Denver.—Boston Woman's Journal.

A Chuge In London.

London Woman affirmu that a curious chango in London society is the gradual disappearance of the once all powerful American female element The recent marriage of the Duke of Marlborough and Miss Consuelo Vanderbilt shows that British aristocrats are not yet indifferent to the wealth and wit of the United States, but the long admired, royalty honored and Paris gowned American beauty no longer prevails.

The smart English woman today rivals the American woman in brilliancy, attractiveness and chic. This transformation is not the sole cause of the American decline. The Prince of Wales, who is the dictator of society here, finds the gentle graces of English aristocrats more agrwable than laughing loveliness of the daughters of the new world.—New York Sun's London Letter. •.

Miss FollPtf* Work.

Aii elaborate monograph on "The Speaker of the House of Representatives" will soon lie published by Miss Mary Parker Follett of Radcliffe college, Cambridge, Mass.

Miss Follett's views are said to be decidedly original

Tn these days, when everything from an ink bottle to a tea caddy is utilised for a lamp foundation, with, too, it must be admitted, varying success, a really graceful novelty is not to be overlooked. Such a one, seen recently, was a l«mp evolved from an Italian wine bottle. Into the long, slender neck of a large wicker bodied Chianti flask was inserted one of the delicate glass lamp bulbs to be found in the leading shops, shade, a most harmonious accom-

full over a lining of white silk The gay red and blue silk pompons which the Italian manufacturer, with his native love of oolor, never fails to fasten to the wicker casing of his wine bottle, were left and afforded the only brilliant tones in the dainty novelty.

Another lamp to be desired, seen in a rrtudio noted for its fascinating colleorrion of old brasses and glass, was fashi.oned of one of the brass milk cans which are among the finds of Holland. The can had been slightly beaten and highly polished, and into its 4 inch neflk was fitted a lamp fount A yellow silk shade added the finishing touoh.

In the den of a bachelor a foundation for a lamp has been laid with three Turkish daggers. Their handles resting on the table, the curved blades hold the fount The original thought which designed this unique ornament has carried out the oriental scheme in the shade, which is made of a brightly striped silk scarf of Turkey.

The fortunate possessor of two tall, single candelabra of the empire period has, with the aid of a pale yellow and a turquoise blue lamp bulb and shade to match, added two of the most charming illuminating vehicles imaginable to her artistio menage. The same little housewife has supplied a much desired blue and white lamp for a white dining room by purchasing for a mere song a tall candlestifok of imitation delft and supplying it with a white porcelain bulb and a shade made of blue and white Japanese crape.

A11 inexpensive and in every way satisfactory toilet lamp is easily evolved from any one of the pretty porcelain candlesticks picked up occasionally at a very small investment in the leading crockery houses. The simple old brass and silver candlesticks that area heritage from our grandmothers will also be found very available for the same purpose,—New York Times.
