American Regard for Women.

Mr.. Van Arsdel, like many of our
merchant princes, had come from a
rural district, and had an early ex-
perience of the hard and frugal life
of a fars flood sense, acute OBJ
servation, N ability to take wide and
clear views OF men and things, and
an incorruptible integrity had been
the means of his rise to his present
elevation. He was true American
in another respect, that was devo-
ton to woman. In America, we
have a clear democracy, women hold
that influence over men that is eX-
cited by the aristocracy in other
countries. They are something to
be looked up to, petted and quieted.
The human mind seems to require
something of this kind. The faith
and fealty Chat the middle class
Englishman has toward his nobility
is not at all snobbery. 1t has some
thing of poetry in tit is his ro-
nance of life. Up in these airy re-
gions where walk the nobility he is
at liberty to fancy some higher,
finer types of manhood and woman
hood than he sees in the ordinary
ways of life, and he adores the un-
seen and unknown. The American
life would become vulgar and com
monplace did not a chivalrous de-
votion to woman come in to supply
the place of recognized orders of
nobility. The true Democrat sees
no superior in rank among men, but
all women are by courtesy his su-
periors.-Mrs. St0Ue.

Fashions for 1901.

A Saratoga correspondent of the
New York Commercial advertiser,
pretending to be writing thirty years
hence, gives the fashions for 1901.
AS it may possibly be useful to the
daughters and granddaughter OF
our present lady readers, we repro
duce the description:
"The high heels are gone. There
are no more round shoulders, but
the Goddess of Fashion has not
been idle. Her ways are almost as
ridiculous as they were in 1871,
when they used to stuff out with
newspapers, and dangle their hands
and their right-angled wrists in front
Now they have the front soles of
their shoes made an inch thick,
while the heels are taken off, and
every young lady stands bent as far
over back, as she used to stand bent
forward, thirty years ago. Some
times the eyes are painted black un-
derneath, as they used to be. They
said the cretonne suits were worn
for two years, then the ladies got to
wearing dresses made of peacocks'
feathers. noticed the waists of the
dresses to-day at the United States
were very high-the same as you
see in the pictures of Mrs. Madison.
Gloves have twentyfour buttons,
and extend to the shoulder. The
dresses are cut low neck-very low;
but the neck and shoulders are cov-
cred with white kid to match the
gloves. These necks fit so nicely
that you think you are looking at
the Z naked shoulders. Shoddy
young ladies now wear stuffed arms
and necks, and defy competition.
Young ladies have resorted to the
old fashion of greasing their hair
again. The old fashion of powder
ing the face to take away the gloss
and glow of health, has been dis
continued. Gentlemen wear trows-
ers very large at the knee, and tight
at the bottom. They also wear ear
rings, a fashion which used to be
observed thirty years ago by ladies
alone. Gentlemen's hats are gener-
ally the mode chapeoW de biigand,
turned up at the sides with ROSTERS
feathers.

Shocking Accident to an In
diana Aeronaut---He Falls
-.a0yer a Mile and is Dashed to
Pieces--His Wire and Child
View the Terrible Spectacle.

LOUISVILLE, Oct. 2.-LaSt Satur-
day evening, near Paoli, Orange
county, Indiana, Professor Wilbur
made arrangements for 4 balloon as
cension. He was to be accompanied
by George ii. Knapp, editor of the
Orange County Union. Just as they
were about getting in the balloon
the cords gave way, and they made
spring for the ear, but only Sue
ceeded in grasping the ropes. As
the balloon rose Knapp let go and
fell at height of about thirty feet
without serious injury. Professor
Wilbur held on and attempted to
climb into the basket, but was I'M
able to do so, and the balloon shot
up rapidly, the aronaut clinging be
low. The spectators were thrilled
with horror at the terrible scene,
which ended in a dreadful manner.
At height of about one mile the
doomed man loosed his hold and
came whirling to the earth. AT the
height he had attained he looked
like small stick about foot long.
AS he approached the earth he was
coming down feet foremost, then
spread out horizontally, then
donbled up and turned over, then
Strengthened out head downward.
AS he struck the earth he fell upon
his head and back. His head was
mashed into an undistinguishable
mass, and his body bruised and
crushed horribly. The concussion
was so great that half a gallon of
clotted blood was thrown from his
mouth. The body made an inden
ture in the ground of eight inches
deep, and rebounded several feet
from where it struck. To add to the
painful character of the accident,
the Professors young wife and lit
tie daughter were ON the ground and
witnessed the terrible affair. The
remains of the unfortunate man
were properly cared for, and buried
at Paoll yesterday evening.

The following extraordinary
dispatch has been received from

&" A startling phenomenon has
Just occurred in Florida. A large
portion of Orange County has
been changed to a lake, and trees,
houses and people ingulfed.
There were many witnesses of
the phenomenon. They say the
first thing that kattracted atten-
ton was trees moving first in
giratory motion, some sinking
gradually out of sight, the tops
reeeding more and more. rapidly
as they sank and disappeared,
others following, and as they fell
revolving and describing areas
of a circle against the SKY; then
the whole earth, as far as the eye
could reach, sinking, and its place
supplied by sea Of water, rush
ing, seething, boiling, with a
noise as OF mighty eataracts, and
ever and anon casting to the sur
face roots and tops of bodies of
mighty pines and OAKS. The
country in every direction is en-
tirely submerged, and is now one
vast lake. 1t is rumored that the
town of Orlando is entirely swal-
lowed up, and the whole cham of

way are now united and form an
immense inland sea. The peo-
pie are flying, terror stricken,

most as romantic as the Tichborne

property of 100000 under the name
of Lady Elizabeth Morton. 1t would
appear that the lady, while acting as
a servant in the family, frequently
assured those around herof her aris
tocratic connections, but no one
credited her tale. She came out to

To Keep Winter Apples.

With other modes of saving ap-
plies all Winter and far into the
Spring, we have more than once sug-
gested that generally adopted in
New England, New York, and the
northwestern States which is to pick
them from the trees, sort them out,
and put them in flour casks, press
ing them down closely, and heading
them up. They should be allowed
to stand under shed until cold
weather sets in, and then be re
moved to dry cellar or some place
where they will not freeze. Care
must be taken that none but per
feet fruit is barreled. We saw the
other day one of the best farmers
of Montgomery county putting up
his apples in this manner, and he
told us that they frequently kept
until early haymaking.-Ge,mon

"A HARVEST FESTIVAL.
An 1ntessstf1 sns-BeautifuI
Service.

A rarely beautiful service was eel
ebrated at st. Johns Episcopal
Church on Sunday the 10th. The
members of the congregation met to
give thanks for the ''kindly fruits of
EARTH which, sin due time" ac-
cording to the expressive language
of the litany, and IN unusual bounty
they with all others have this season
been permitted to enjoy, In order
to give greater significance to the
festival, the chancel and altar were
filled with choice specimens of the
Weld of the harvest. The altar table
was covered with flowers in fresh
cut boquets, and trailing vines en-
circled the railing about it. From
the reading desk clusters of grapes
on the vine were festooned, while
nearly every inch of the wood work
vas hid under the leaves, the fruits
and the flowers of early autumn. In
the corner of the church to the right
of the chancel was a shock of full
ripe corn in the ear, and bundles Of
newly harvested golden grain. The
center piece of the decorations was
the baptismai font, which stands at
the head of the center aisle. 1t was
literally transformed into an over
running cornucopia. Pears, peaches
and grapes in every variety of color
and form, and vegetables and grain
were arranged in beautiful picture,
of which negligently and yet taste
fully disposed flowers were the back
ground. In the vestry room were
barrels of pippins and heaps of
vegetables. Grapes in huge baskets
and vegetables by the bushel filled
the corners, and under the tables
and the chairs side-bursting sacks
of -four and laughing pumpkins
were revealed.
The fruits and vegetables were
contributed by the members of the
congregation, and the use to be
made of this harvest is another
pleasant feature of the service. The
flowers were distributed to the sick
and infirm members of the congre
CATION. The fruits and the vegetables
are to be given to the inmates of
St. Luke's Hospital and the Or
phans' Home, and the money col
lected at the offertory will be set
apart for the education of young
men for the ministry.
The church was crowded during
the exercises. After the opening
service, the Bishop delivered an
earnest and thoroughly appropriate
address. He referred to the nature
of thanksgiving services and thank
offerings, and their ancient institu-
ton. The early Israelites were com
manded by God, in the revelation to
Moses, to return thanks for the first
fruits of the year, and during the
first dispensations the priests were
accustomed to lead the people QUITO
the fields at the beginning of the
harvests, from whence they returned
in procession with waving grain to
the temple, where thanks were offer
ed. In the same manner, he eX
planned, this service is celebrated,
and at this time rather than at later
day, when the fruits are gone and the
earth is robbed of her beauty.

Fifteen Great Mistakes.

1t is great mistake to setup our
own standard of the right and wrong
and judge people accordingly. It's
a great mistake to measure the en-
joyment of others by our own; to
look for judgment and experience
in youth; to endeavor to mould all
dispositions alike; not to yield to
immaterial trifles: to look for per-
fection in our own actions; to worry
ourselves and others with what can
not be remedied; not to alleviate all
that needs alienation, as far as lies
in our power; not to make allow
ance for the infirmities Of others
to consider everything impossible
which we cannot perform; to believe
only what our finite minds can
CRAPS; to expect to be able to un-
derstand everything. The greatest
of all mistakes is to live only for
time, when any moment may launch
us into eternity.

Vinegar.

1t is well known fact, that much
of the vinegar which is sold in the
shops is either malt-vinegar, reduced
with water, and strengthened with
sluphuric acid, or acetic acid, also
diluted, neither of which is very ac-
ceptable or wholesome. Under these
circumstances, it will be a comfort
to know that one can make his own
vinegar as well as yeast, and know
what is in it. Take one gallon of
water, half pound of sugar, half a
pound of molasses, and boil them
together for twenty minutes; when
cool, add a quarter of an ounce of
German yeast, put the whole into a
jar, and lay the vinegar plant on the
surface of the liquor. Cover the
jar with paper, keeping it in a warm
place, and it will produce very good
and wholesome vinegar in about six
weeks. ....-...
