The LAST PARIS FASHIONS
1t would appear as If the fair sex
were now returning, little by little, to
the fashions of Mother Eve. Those
of the Directoire are decidedly in
vogue-very short waists, no crino-
line, and long, hanging gowns; the
hair cut like a boys and curled
Diamonds are very much worn, and
ear rings are as long as ones arm.
The gentlemen are again taking to
tight trousers, similar to those worn
in 1910; waistcoats open, with a
large collar, showing the shirt front,
which is deliberately embroidered.
Jewelry is much the fashion, and
gibus is much in favor. You see
we have only to take the Journal des
Modes of the beginning of this CEN
fury to be dressed in the height OF
fashion.

Ray- Rats are now killed in the
sewers Of Paris by electricity. Wires,
insulated by glass feet and attached
to a powerful galvanic battery, are
baited with bits of wasted meat,
placed at little distances apart; and,
when the rats come by hundreds to
nibble at the bait, they are instantly
killed by the shock. The meat is
not disturbed by the current, and
may be used till it dries away.

BuReIAR1ous.--The burglarsare again at
their nefarious business in our city, enter
ing buildings to steal what they can lay
their hands upon. We have heard Of two
cnses recently wherein dwellings have been
entered by them, but fortunately their de-
signs we're thwarted in each instance by
the occupants, who were wide awake at the
time. Our citizens should not cease their
vigilance in endesvoring to put stop to
tho operations of these night-prowling gen
try. Let the patrol continue, Mr.. Mayor
and with an additional force. to rid the
community Of the lawless pests infesting it.

ANECDoTE OF WEBSTER The fol-
lowing anecdotc Of the 'sGodlille" is
taken from fraser's Nondon) Mayo
zine, for Scptember
At the political dinners, of which
Webster was rather fond, he almost
invariably became tipsy before his
speech time arrived, and some of his
most admired after-dinner speeches
were the composition of friendly re-
porters. On one occasion, he had to
be prompted by a friend, who sat
just behind him, and gave him sue
ccssively phrases and topics. The
speech proceeded somewhat after
this fashion: Prompter, "Taritf, "
Webster: "'rhc tariff, gentlemen, is
q subject requiring the profound at
tention Of the statesman. American
industry, gentlemen, must be
(nods q little.) Prompter: ''NaIonal
debt" Webster: ''And thc1e's the
national debit should .Se paid
Cloud cheers, which rous1d the speak
cr)-yes, gentlemen, it should be
paid -(cheers) and id if it shan't
be- taking out his pocket-book) y
I'll pay it myself. How much is it?"
The last question was asked of gen
tleman near him with drunken Sc
riousness, and coupled with the re-
collection of the well known impecu-
mostly of Webster's pocket-book, ex-
cited roars of laughter, amidst which
the orator sank into his scat and was
soon asleep.

Many Years ago, Horace Greeley
and Park Benjamin were joint editors
of q weekly journal. The hour for
going to press had come; the editors
were together in their room, and
were unexpectedly summoned for
"more copy" Surprised and vexed,
they looked at each other Il moment,
sat down to desks facing each other,
took up their pens and went to work.
After two hours hard work, they
compared notes. Greeley had q
crusher on 'Procrastination, and
Benjamin a remarkably bitter article
against ''Haste."

Brick Pomeroy thus writes of
Washington society: eff the devil
should come to Washington. and es-
tablish tirst-class palatial house of
prostitution, filling it with wine and
beautiful women, he could legistate
this country to hell in fifteen mi
nutcs. The member of Congress who
has not half dozen mistresses is,
called 'copperhead, and kept out
OF the political ring.
At o bigamv suit recently instituted
against young woman, it turned

bands thus: Glove me Little, love
me Long"

How often a new affection makes 2
new man. The sordid, covering soul
turns heroic. The frivolous girl be-
comes the steadfast martyr of patience
and minietration, transfigured by
deathless love- The career of bound

of sacred deeds
