turcrs, Glassford street, Glasgow, have
been exhibiting two palaquin umbrel-
las double the size of any ever before

afford protection to about twenty-five
persons. Oneis made Of o fine damask

fringe nine inches deep. fhc other
ons is made of red silk, with n pure
fringe, and lined inside with white

ished is five yards long, and jointcd
in the center to make the umbrellas
more portable, and has q heavy spike
at the end for fixing in the ground,

Texas Yields tlsc BANNER 10 Missouri
ms the Champion characterization

lErom the Denison Texas New SOUTH
Missouri is Justly entitled to the
name of the "border-ruilian State" of
the Mississippi valley. Scarcely n
week passes by without the lynching
and hanging or shooting of some per-
son by an infatuated mob of her chest
citizens 1t matters not, in many
portions of that State, if the victim be
in the hands of the officers of the law,
he is forciblY taken from the officials,
even after trial, conviction and sen
tence to the penitentiary, and sum
marily hanged to the nearest tree. The
latest sensational such things longer
create sensation THERE'S the arrest
and hanging of two horse-thieves,
near Sedalin, by party of farmers
from Benton county. There is strong
probability that the county ofCallaway
will be placed under martial law, SO
strong has the mob force become, and
so insecure are the lives and property
of the more law-abiding people of the
county. 1t il also admitted by the
press of that State that there is, in
some of the western counties, rem
dezvous for thieves and outlaws,
which, so far, the authorities have
failed to discover, and which Is sup
posed to be strongly fortified.
Texas has long borne hard name,
but we do not believe there is county
in the State after it had become as
thickly settled as in any part of Wes7
tern Missouri, where thieves and OUT
laws were safe from apprehension
because of any secret hiding places OF
danger attending their arrest.
If Missouri, or any other state, eX-
poets to profit from an intelligent and
dcsira bic immigration. it must assure
those seeking homes within its bord7
aus. that iSis both able, and WillisF IL
give item protection from illegal arr
rests and mob violence, and metc out
condign punishment to all law-break-
trs.
Texas gracefully rctircs and yields
the palm to the Older, and heretofore
supposed more civilized, State of Mis-
souri,.

lin no one article perhaps is female
extravaganza in dress carried to 4
greater length than in the use of elc-
CANT and costly laccs and cmbroideries.
Almost fabulous prices are paid for
them. The rich laces in this country
are imported from Europe. The rea-
son of this is that American girls are
not willing--and we trust they never
will be compelled--to work for five
dollars month; and foreign were
manitictci could undersell the native
artisan The earliest specimens of lace
a..e,,.. opposed of. Laces of twen-
~ Juliiu, a yard--and Iilat but one
fourth "a ard wide-find ready pur-
CHI MS do capes at two hundred
dollA. ..ece. The demand for rich
laces l., g Instantly increasing, over run
ming the supply, thus approaching the
prices, consequently the genuine ar
ticle can only be worn by the wealthy.
Belgium supplies the American la
dies with more lace than all the coun-
tries of Europe together, and those of
the rarest kind, finest quality, and
most artistic design. In fact, lace is
indigenous to Belgium. and has been
so for generations. In some parts of
Belgium the flowers are made separate
ly, and then worked into the ground,
while others carry on the pattern and
design together The "droche leinc"
continues to work ut the ground, and
the "plateuse at the flowers, and
when they haze finished the "stir-
uuesen works one into the other. and
the task is complete. The thread re-
uuired for lace making is manufacture
cd in Belgium, the finest kind being
made in cellars and kept there, lest
exposure to the air should render itlia
BILE to break. The thread sells
at 1900 francs a pound, and
has been known to bring 10000 francs
The labor of washing lace is almost an
art, and only the most skillful in that,
are engaged in it. After washing, lace
is spread out TO dry, on cushioned Ia
bles and Plus of peculiar kind are run
through each hole to prevent the fab
ric from shrinking. When very fine
or the pattern intricate, an entire day
will be spent on one yard of lace.

rare old lace; light and open, raised in
some parts like embossed wood,
and has an air of antiquity that is
highly priced The manufacture of IL
Is said TO be entirely abandoned, aud
Il is only found now as heirloom in
families, except when a stray speci-
incn finds its way into market, in
which case there s. great competition
for its possession. The point de Ven

From the Chicago Tribune.


A special meeting of the stockhold-
crs of the Chicago, Alton and st.
Louis Builroad Company was held yes
tcrday at the office of the company,
Nos. and West Van Buren, street, ut
which 1t was decided to authorize the
creation of an Indebtedness not exceed
ing SS,000,000, and securing the same
by mortgage OF deeds of trust, in order
to retire and cancel thepresent bonded
Indebtedness OF the Company, iuiu 10
furnish the means for procuring steel
rails, double-track, rolling-stock and
transportation facilities, SO rs to pro-
vide, from time to time, for conducting
an increased traffic with the greatest
degree of economy. 1t is proposed to
set apart from this amount $3,470, 900,
for the purpose of retiring and cancel
ing IL like amount of mortgage bonds,
now outstanding, and falling due at
different periods. OF the remainder,
Si,53O, 900, it is proposed to sell 81 ,5O0,-
900 this year, the proceeds to be applied
in the construction of a bridge over the
Mississippi river at Louisiana, Mo-, Of
which the company will be the sole
owner; the purchase of steel rails, con-
struction of double track, etc., to meet
the present demands of traffic Tho
remainder will be issued from time to
time in the future, to provide means
for the purchase OF steel rails to take
the place of iron, as the latter are
worn out, and for additional doublc
tracks, rolling stock, etc. The meet
ing was held in compliance with an
act of the last Legislature, entitled:
"An act to enable railroad companies
TO borrow money, and to mortgage
their property and finances therefor"

A Mammoth, loan,

Considerable NcltementW was nccaSioIi-
ed in railroad circles last evening over
n rumor to the effect That 1AOs. ~.
Scott lad secured II loan in Europe for
500, 000, 900, for the construction of the
Southern Pacific railroad. Although
the rumor could not be traced to an
authentic source, il received general
credence from the fact that the gener-
al railroad pOtcntatc was known to be
negotiating for such loan, and that
such negotiationgs were understood to
be about completed some days since.
Mr. Scott has been in Europe for sew
eral weeks effccting settlement of
the old Fermont difficulty, and max
ing arrangements MS above stated,
The Southern Pacific road, when com
pleted, will open new route OF almost
incalculable value from the Atlantic to
the Pacific seabord.
The line proper will begin at Shreve-
port, Louisiana, which will be its East
crn terminus, and will extend through
the vast timber country of Northern
Texas, the finest in the world, through
the entire length of New Mexico to
San Diego, California. Connections
will be made at Shreveport with road
running to New Orleans, and one run
ming to Brunswick, Florida, through
Montgomery, Jackson, Vicksburg, etc.,
thus making almost an airline across
the continent. The road is built and
in operation for construction nearly
three hundred miles west of Shreye-
port, ard the entire line will undgdbt-
edly be built in a comparativelyshortl
space of time.
This is supposed to be one OF the
grandcst m0ney-making enterprises
in the prospective ever updertaken IN
this country, as the company has pur--
chased large numberof of grants and
reservations along tie line, and has|
under its control ap enormous amountI
of landed property Which, when ,prop,-l
erIy developed, will prove of an meal
cuiable value to the owners. A NUM-

But is this an evil without remedy a palliativeP No con- stitutions can be replaced. Hundreds of thousands ofinstances might be adduced in which constitu- tiona1 decay has been arrested by the continuous of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters an invigorant It is constitutional strength that enables one man to recover from disease which would be mortal to another destitute of this element of resistance Whenever a malady of any kind btains foothold in any part of the human body, and becomes a chronic fixture there it is proof positive that the constitu ion has been mastered by the disease and urgently l. quires help. In such case Hcstetters Bitters should be taken at least three times day, until the natural powers of the system recruit ed.
