London Is always a boom city. Every

A perfectly healthy woman, In the
opinion of Dr. Cyrus Edson, is "quite

An Indiana court has convicted a

posing a fine of $218. And yet we won

A Chicago physician seems to know
iwhat is good for children. He recom-
mends the use of sweets and pure can-
fly by them. He believes that "the taste
for sweet stuff should be encouraged
rather than checked, for it tends to
ward off a desire for alcohol later In
life." According to his observation,
drunkards avoid sweet things.
, The Russian government recognizes
the Increasing Importance of artillery
In modern warfare and the necessity of
having an extra supply of trained men
to replace artillerists killed In battle.
To provide this artillery reserve a
number of men in each cavalry and in
fantry regiment are given the lessons
requisite to make them capable artil
lerists. Dr. MacArthur, the leading Baptist
minister of New York, thus explains
away the miracle of Joshua stopping
the sun. Says the doctor: "It la sim
ply a poetical way of declaring that a
great body of trained soldiers were
overthrown by men little accustomed
to war, and before the sun went down.
It is not to be taken literally any more
than other words of the Scripture, such
as "The stars in their courses fought
against Sisera,' 'The hills melted like
wax at the presence of the Lord,' The
little hills skipped like lambs.' "
The annual parliamentary blue book,
giving statistics of mineral production
in the United Kingdom for 1896, shows
that the quantity of coal mined was
nearly six million tons greater than in
the previous twelve months, but the
value was $200,000 less. Production of
pig iron was the largest ever reached,
being 8,659,681, tons. Gold is still pro
duced to a small extent in Wales, but
the quantity fell from 6,600 ounces in
1895 to 1,352 last year, owing probably
to the abandonment of enterprises that
were floated during the boom In gold
mining shares.
It is believed that the most remark
able group of street mains in the world
Is under the surface of Amsterdam
avenue In New York. There are six
water mains, eaoh over four feet In di
ameter, on which the entire population
depends for Its sufficient water supply.
In addition there are two electric sub
way conduits, a twenty-inch and a
twelve-inch water main, one thirty
Inch gas main, one twenty-Inch gas
pipe, and six gas pipes from eight to
ten Inches in diameter. In all there are
eighteen large pipes under ground.
Colonel John Cussons, grand com
mander, and Captain Thomas Ellett,
adjutant general of the Grand Camp,
Confederate Veterans, Department of
Virginia, have issued a call for a gen
eral meeting to be held in Lee Camp
Hall, Richmond, Virginia, on Tuesday,
October 19, at 8 o'clock p. m. "This
gathering," says the call, "of well
known educators and eminent citizens
of Virginia is for the purpose of formu
lating a definite plan for the exclusion '
from our schools and colleges of all his-!
tories which are grossly erroneous in
their statements, or which in their ani
mus are unfriendly to the State."
It now appears that the attempt to
bring buyers to New Tork by an ar
rangement for special fares on the rail
roads was an almost ridiculous failure.
When the great scheme was started we
were assured that at least twenty-five
thousand merchants would b-j drawn to
the metropolis by the inducements. As
a matter of fact the total number of
country merchants registered at the
rooms of the merchants' association
during the trade excursion period was
only 3.793. Of these only J.d'JS came on
the special low fares provided, as the
remainder came from territory where
the low rates were not granted. How
many of the 1,998 would not have gone
to the city without the special fares
cannot, of course, be said. But It is
altogether probable that most of them
were men who regularly visit New
York in the fall and who merely used
the special rates this. year because they
were to be had.
1POKTH FIOIITISO FOIL
Doubtless all who are managing tho
political movements in New York city
nowadays are animated by the purest
motives and the most unselfish regard
for the city's good. At least they all
say they are, and if they don't know
nobody does. But incidentally there
are some rich prizes which will go to
the winners. The mayor's salary is
$25,000. Tho comptroller's office Is pe
cuniarily much more important. The
comptroller himself, in salary and esti
mated fees, has a compensation of $73,
000 per annum. The patronage of his
office is immense. ' He has the appoint
ment of more than fifty officials, the
united salaries of whom amount to
nearly $130,000. The county clerk re
ceives $15,000 per annum, the register
$12,000, tho sheriff $47,000, the district
attorney $12,000. In the county offices
the Kings county clerk has $30,000, the
register $50,000, the treasurer $23,000,
the sheriff $80,000! In Queens county
the sheriff receives $30,000. There are
numerous under-offlcers of all these
functionaries,
The grand total of sala-'
i.: tx, i - i
ries paid reaches the amount of $6So,-
All that is worth fighting for, and the
fight will be a warm one. May the best ,
men win.
KANSAS AOAiy HlHltn FROST.
Queer things happen in Kansas, and
when the Hon and the lamb He down
together with the lamb outside the Hon
Kansas may be the place where the
blessed phenomenon will first appear.
Sometning very mucn like lt has al.
ready appeared there. The 'regular"
'or anopathio state medIcal BOciety the
homoeopathic society, and the State or
ganization of the eclectic school have
appointed committees headed by the
presidents of the respective societies
for the purpose of arranging a joint
State meeting. Thus far negotiations
have proceeded harmoniously, and a
programme has been prepared of pa
pers to be read by physicians of the
three schools at a meeting to be held
in May next. The declared motive of
this joining together in fellowship Is
one of broad tolerance in matters af
fecting the welfare of medical practice,
and also the better, by united action,
to protect the profession of medicine
from frauds of various kinds. Allo
pathic practitioners of long standing
do not approve the harmony meeting,
Kansas newspapers say, but the young
er men seel In it a liberal spirit and a
discontinuance of the intolerance that,
in some degree, checked progress.
If the Kansas doctors who are now
so harmonious don't get to disagreeing
before their meeting time they will
doubtless have a regular, or irregular
love feast and set a fine example of tol
erance and common sense. As long as
so many patients prefer to be killed in
irregular ways there isn't much sense
or much profit in doctors' talk about
"regularity."
Chicago wo hK ixoaiEN sovyn.
1he anarchists of Chicago are making
ready to celebrate the anniversary of
the hanging of the anarchists, but they
will not have the assistance of the Chi
cago Federation of Labor. The Fed
eration received an invitation to assist,
and the matter was fully and freely
discussed. The first speech after the
letter of invitation was read was:
"We've heard that rot before." John
Keating protested tearfully against
such language in a gathering of work
ingmen. The four dead anarchists had
borne labor's burdens, he said. They
had een put to death in order to kill
off organized labor and the eight-hour
movement. Workingmon owed them a
debt of remembrance and gratitude.
"Let u,s acknowledge our debt in pub
lic," said John, "and not sneak into
dark alleys to do it." Those were Jesse
-Weston's sentiments, too. "It is time
to be men," he said, "and to stand
forth boldly." Victor Williams had his
doubts. Admitting that Spies, Parsons
and their associates "lived in advance
of their time," he confessed to a fear
that reviving the memory of the Hay
market affair wouldn't do organized
labor any good. J. H. Payne denounc
ed anarchism as the arch-enemy of the
trades-unions, and expressed the opin
ion that the Haymarket bombs had set
back the .movement for the eight-hour
workday in Illinois ten or a dozen
years. T. J. O'Brien took the same
view of the matter. He described him
self as a trades-unionist but no anar
chist, a believer in a living wage and
the eight-hour workday but not in
bombs nor in bums. "Those- men were
murderers and deserved their fate,"
said Workingman O'Brien. "A hundred
times they preached murder on our lake
front and advocated putting bombs to
the foundations of our city. They had
not the courage to act out this advice,
and, when weaker men did do it, they
paid the just penalty with tlie'r lives.
Trades-unionism has naught to do with
such abominations."
Then, by a vote of four to one, the
invitation was rejected. The organized
labor of Chicago is not anarchistic.
FASHION XOfliS.
TrfilUneil With Illack Velvet.
ITses are still many for woolen and
silk braids, but ribbon garnitures are
newer and preferable for patterns that
they will take readily. In the dress
shown herewith it would be foolish to
use anything but ribbon, for the design
is entirely new and in every way wor
thy of the latest means of carrying it
out. The goods of this dress was cash
mere of a stylish gray, and the ribbon
was black velvet. Except yoke and
collar, which were heavy cream lace,
Royal makes the tood pure,
Wholesome and delicious.
PS
Etc no
the entire bodice was covered with a
trellis of ribbon, and this wu repeated
on the skirt at the hips, and on epaulets
and sleeve cuffs. The belt came from
a wider band of black velvet. Consid-
erlnS how stylishly new this gown is,
anu now lew cumcuiues it presents m
home copying ,t ,8 0M that deservea a
general looking over.
The style of the Russian blouse de-
p,ends on the srace of the blouse por
tion. Many of the cheaper garments
show a square flat overhang in the
back, which has the effect of a rather
clumsy bolero back. This is ugly; the
blouse should be unmistakably a
blouse, and there should be an appar
ent dependence upon the confining of
the belt for its spring. The straight
line should be avoided, if you wish the
blouse to seem one of the high class im
ported novelties. Gowns showing the
Russian bodice are just now in the tail
or variety to meet the requirement of
the coat-and-skirt gowns of last sea
son, and in very delicate smooth face
cloths, the blouse being modified and
elaborated with applique work, braid
ing and cutting, to show under lining
of contrasting satin.
Already these blouses are shown in
sloppily-made costumes, which implies
that the pattern Is to suffer from second-class
popularity at once. Yet some
of the most beautiful imported, gowns
are after the same pattern, and it will
be the one cut in fur, just to prove that
you didn't get one of those hateful box
front, mark-down seal coats that at the
end of last season seemed such a bar
gain. In view of the sudden and gen
eral taking to the new cut, it will be
wise, if you wish to indulge in it, to
have a thoroughly well made garment,
or you will find yourself worse off than
as though you had left the style alone.
