This is curious world. Two months
ago one B. +. Simmons eloped from st.
Paul with married lady, both of them
leaving families behind them. Both were
in good society" Both were execrated,
The other day both returned. The woman
was met with reproaches and epithets.
Old friends cut her on the streets. A d.
yorce was demanded by her aggrieved hus-
band. How about Simmons Simmons
was man, you see, and that makes diff
ference, you know. His wife and weeping
friends welcomed him back with embraces
the poor, misled prodigal. His cronies
laughed with him and jOked him gaily on
his gallantry. That night he drove around
town with his family behind dappled grays.
bowling and smiling patronizingly. Mrs. -
no matter about the name-the other repro
bate, is literally spurned and driven from
her home by all who knew her, while her
paranour, and the equal criminal, has not
even for moment lost his business footing.
and is just as much the favOrite in society
as ever. For he is mau, YOU know Why
ls this thus! 1t is wrong. One of three
things ought to come to pass. Either a
wOmans lapse from virtue ought to be re-
garded with more charity. or else the man
who drags her down ought to be held to an
equal punishment: or else polygamy ought |
to be established at once, and Brigham |
Young elected President. 1t is ismply |
that women should be punished |
Ten times as severely as men for the same |
sin.

At. st. Louis, the other day, so an ex-

dressed and apparently wealthy lady from
cleveland, who wished to 60 short dis
tance IN the country. There being no stage
At that hour, a gentleman was found WHO
lved IN the direction indicated, and was
willing to favor the lady with a ride The
Herald tells the remainder of the story ::
But 10 upon being confronted with each
other, they each positively declined having
anything to do with the other, and the CEN
tleman incOntinently bOlted. Upon being
asked why this was thus, he replied: sThun
der! l know that woman, She was NV
wife once, and wouldn't ride ten miles
win her for five hundred dollarsr The
lady subsequently hired. a carriage and on
the way informed the driver that she had
found out something she had wanted to
know for a long time" Further deyelop
ments are awaited with interest.

Nine years ago Alexander ii. Stephens
predicted as follows: "MOst of the wealth
Of the North comes from us. New
York is bri-k and mortar-nothing else.
If the war lasts it will be no better than the
arid plains of Babylon. Their
wealth comes from the two hundred and
fifty millions sold us, just as the wealth of
Egypt comes from the deposits Of the Nile.
Steam is powerful, but cotton is
more powerful. Forty thousand seamen
are employed in the transportation of cot
ton alone Darius led six hundred
Thousand troops against the Grecian States.
Eleven thousand met their hosts and put
them to flight, leaving sixty thousand dead
upon the field. No people in the
world have such a productive capital as the
South. -Four million bales of cot
ton are worth $2OO.OOO,0o0. I'm.
less there is change or revolution in the
North, should not wonder if. in three
years, Lincoln and his cabinet came to the
guillotine or the gallows."

that the Republican party Of the State OF

fore; more compact, more determined. and
better organized. and that it's success IN the
coming Campaign is certain beyond all con
tingency. The county meetings have been
attended by large and enthusiastic crowds
of people. The number of able speakers
has been greatly multiplied. and the labor
performed exceeds all efforts made thus
early in any former campaign We have
an able, patriotic and energetic State Cen

Fashions for 1901 .

Saratoga correspondent Of the New
York Commercial Adcertiser, pretending to
be writing thirty years hence, gives the
fashions for 1901. As it may possibly be
useful to the daughters and granddaugh-
tiers Of our present lady readers, we repro
duce the descriptions:
The high heels are gone There are no
more round shoulders, but the goddess of
fashion has not been idle. Her ways are al
most as ridiculous as they were in 1871,
WIN they used to stuff out with newspa-
pd dangle their hands ard right
Erists in front. Now they have the
Il les of their shoes made an inch thick,
whNo the heels are taken of, and every
young lady stands bent as far over back as
she used to stand bent forward thirty years
ago. sometimes the eyes are painted black
underneath as they used to be. They said
the cretonne suits were worn for two years,
then the ladies' got to wearing dresses made
OF peacOck's feathers. l noticed the waists
OF the dresses to-day at the United States
were very bigh-the same as you see in the
pictures Of Mrs. Madison. Gloves have
twenty -four buttons, and extend to the
shoulder. The dresses are cut low.neck-
very low: but the neck and shoulders are
covered with white kid to match the gloves.
These necks tit SO nicely that you think you
are looking at the naked shoulders Shoddv
young ladies now wear stuffed arms and
necks, and defy detection. Young ladies
have resOrted to the old fashion of greasipg
their hair agSn. The old fashion of pow
1ering the face to take away the gloss and |
glow OF health has been discontinued Gen !
'lemen wear trousers very large at the knee,
light at the bottom. They also wear ear |
'ings, fashion which used to be observed |
hirty years ago by ladies alone Gentle
mems hats are generally the mode chapeau

Yesterday's Evening Dispatchea1

WASHINGTON, September l2.-The Portu
gese Minister has resigned.
The foot and mouth disease is increasing
alarmingly in Leicestershire, England.
NEW YORK, September l2-Mayor Hall
has requested Controller Connolly to re-
elgn, on account of the suspicious attaching
to him from the disappearance of the vouch-
ers OF his office. The mayor has no power
to remove him except by a tedious process
place him by some person possessing the
confidence OF the people.
The World, commenting on the abstrac-
ton Of vouchers from the controllers Office.
says every honest man in the city indorses
and applauds the frmness and vigor OF
resignation Of Controller Connolly, after the
untOward incident which has Just occurred
in his department.
at is too well known that the MAYOR has
not power TO remove the heads of lepart-
ments Ii he possessed that power, the re-
quest now made would, Of course, be fol-
lowed up. in the event Of non com pliance,
by step equally prompt and still more de-
clslve. The case Is too urgent for the slow
and dilatory process ofimpeachment. Since
this unfortunate occurrence, the controller
has lost all capacity to he useful in dis
present office, and not only public interest,
but the self-respect of his associates in the
city government demands his retirement.
"lf he is SO mad or so blind as to dis
regard the firm demand of the mayor he
will find before night that a scorching and
resistless public Indignation will make the |
city too hot to hold him. 1t may be his |
misfortune, and it may be his fault that this |
alleged robbery Of his department occurred |
just in this critical juncture, but it has so
suspicious and damaging look that if lie
Is an upright and innocent man, with rea-
sonable sense and honor, he Will only be too
glad to afford the mayor an opportunity to
appoint successor"

A Washington special to the st. Louis

washington special to the st. Louis
Democrat says.
Great complaints have been made against
Secretary Delano for his contemplated
transfer of the pension office, with all its
records, to the SeatOn House. The latter
building is one of the most mbustible in
the city. and situated in a neighborhood
peculiarly liable to fire. Referring to this
change Of base the administration paDer
here says, the records of the pension office
are among the most important connected
with the government More than thirty
millions of dollars are annually disbursed
on them, and thousands of new applications
are annually presented and not decided for
months and months, and their destruction
would place the government at the mercy
OF those claimants, and there would be no
recourse but to allow whatever they might
choose to demand. We admit the force of
the argument that it is desirable to have all
the business Of the pension bureau trans
acted in one building. but that building
ought to be fire proof. A few thousand dol.
lars may be saved by the change, but the
risk which would be incurred thereby
would be too great. Ii the office is to be
moved at all. let it be removed into a
building suited for the purpose.
