Beauty is not the work of destiny
alone. You can protect your mind and
your heart into your face. Right-mind-
edness and right-heartedness stamp
themselves in the countenance. In the
progress of years, bad heart or good
heart puts its head out Of the inner
temple, and publishes to the world all
the secrets within. Our own beauty is
entirely acquired.

Csbell Z sauty Loyalty.

A Kentuckian gave as his idea
of loyalty, that ait meant to kill
somebody ad steal something"
West Virginia loyalty omits the
first of these patriotic accomplish
ments but it cultivates the latter most
diligently. Cabell county loyalty, the
best in the market, does not cOnfine its
operations to stealing; it aims higher;
il leads representative bodies. When a
Cabell county loyalist becomes finish
ell expert, he is made leader of the
House of Delegates. This, We presume,
is kind of promotion for meritorious
service.

A STRANGE CASE.

Arrest Of Postmaster Charged with
Opening Letters-MOdest Request of "a
Suspicious Correspondent Apparent
Simplicity OF the Accused, Etc.
Yesterday afternooa F. w. Parsons, Post
master at Niagara Falls, was arrested by B. X.
Sharrett, Special Detective in the Post Office
Department, charged with opening letters re-
ceived at his office. The officer and his prisoner
arrived in this city at o'clock last night, and
stopped at the Mansion House. Complaints
have frequently been made of letters having
been opened and delayed at the Falls, and the
matter was common talk among the citizens of
that burgh. On one occasion q gentleman
sending letter to the chairman of the Com
mittee on the Bankrupt law, from the Falls,
well knowing that the letter would not 20
through the office without being examined,
kindly left the envelope open, writing on the
fly leaf:-'I leave this letter open to save you
trouble. Please read and let 1t go forward, as
1t relates to matters which do not concern you."
II is stated that the detective has been engaged
for the past ten days IN endeavoring TO find
sufficient proof of Parsons malpractces and
worked himself into the latters confidence to
such an extent that the Postmaster opened u
letter in his presence and read it's contents.
And we were informed that at the time of his
arrest letter addressed to S. Pettibone, by the
Hon. Burt Van Horn, was fouEd in his pocket.
Notwithstanding all these reports, the friends
of MIR. Parsons express the hope that he will
be able to prove himself innocent of all in
tended criminality in the premises Buffalo

A Claim Against the Government fOl
SI,5OO,OOO.


Commodore Meade, brother of Major. General
Meade, has a suit against the Government in
the Court of CLAIMS for 81, 100000, as admins
traitor of his father, Richard W. Meade. 1t
appears that the father of the Commodore
resided in Spain during the French invasion
under Napoleon, and entered into heavy con-
tracts with the Spanish Government, by which
means Spain became largely his debtor. After
the restoration of the King of Spain to the
throne Mr.. Meade was thrown into prison, and
was only released through the interposition of
the Government of the United States. In 1918
Mr.. Meade presented claim against Spain for
about 100000. In 1919 the Governments of the
United States and Spain entered into treaty,
by which, in consideration of $4,000, 900, the
Government of the United States uncondition-
ally released the Government of Spain from any
liability on claims of citizens of the United
States, the latter Government undertaking to
satisfy any claims OF her citizens. A commission
was appointed by the Government under this
treaty, to which was submitted the claim of
Mr.. Meade, among others, but it was not
allowed.
Mr.. Meade presented his claim until the time
of his death, when the Commodore was substi-
tuted as executor of his father The aggregate
of the clam, which amounted in 1919 to $600.00
now amounts to $1,500,000. The case has been
referred to the Court of Claims merely with tn
view of an appeal from whatever judgment shall
be rendered, to the Supreme Court, the object
being to obtain q decision of that Court on the
question whether this claim is embraced among
those provided for by the treaty of 1919.

BOnnets in France.

Bonnets trimmed with plaits are very popu-
lar. will describe two that were made few
days ago. The first was the form called Maria
Louise, which has a small low crown. 1t
was made OF blue crepe mixed with blond;
two plaits of blue silk descended the back,
and two similar plaits crossed the front of
the bonnet. The second was in the Marie
Stuart form, pointed on the forehead. 1t was
black velvet, with jet drops round it. At the
edge OF the 'front.' there was a small bow, with
three crimson velvet buckles; two plaits of
crimson velvet, terminating with jet drops, de-
scended the back. Some novelties, made en-
tirely OF feathers, are the lightest and most
dressy OF all small bonnets, and are already in
great demand. Ibis feathers, and feathers
from other aquatic birds, which are dyed in
variety OF brilliant colors, are used for this pur
pose. In black, with rose at the side, and
In shaded blue and green with a jet fringe IN
side, these bonnets are especially pretty.
For the theatre they are made of white mara
bouts, with wreath of either Bismark (bronze)
leaves, fuchsias, or lilies of the valley, ln-
side. Other bonnets, intended to be worn at
the theatre, are made quite round, and are
bordered with sequins, composed either ofpearl
or mother pearl. Wide bonnet strings have
entirely dsappeared; they are replaced either
narrow ones, made of cross-cut velvet and
edged with lace, or by tulle or lace scarf
which commences at the back of the bonnet
wells the chignon, and is carried to the front,
where it crosses. These bonnets are much in
in the same style as the mantilas.-Pdrts Cor

Death of Famous Female Brlgand.

The Italia of Naples announces the death of
the famous "brigandess," La GIzzi, who was for
some time the terror Of the Volturara district.
La GizZi was tall, muscular woman, with beet
ling brows, covered with a thick mass of black
shaggy hair that fell over her shoulders and
breast, and was so bloodthirsty that she in
voluntarily performed the Office of executioner
on every captive doomed to death by her band.
II is stated that on one occasion, after stabbing
three of her captives, she collected the blood
that flowed from their wounds in a lar, and
then poured it over the head of her lover, tell
ing him that should be his baptism of blood.
Being sharply pursued by the troops her con.
sort took refuge in the cottage of a peasant of
Petrosa, and compelled him with frightful
threats to give them food. The peasant laid
some provisions before them; but while they
were busted with their meal he seized an axe
and attacked them with such fury that he struck
both La Gizzi and her companion to the ground
before they could defend themselves. He then
ran to the neighboring village of Ricigliano.
collected the national guard Of the district, and
returned with them 10 his cottage. Here thew
found two dead bodies, and after decapitatinS
them, carried the heads of La Gizzl and her
lover together with their conqueror, i'm tri
umph through the district.
