What All Actress Says About Her - rcsscs
How to Get Il Fit.
New York Post.
Mrs. Florence, the actress, has her
own notions about the making of her
dresses. The French, she says, pay par
ticular attention to the curve of the
darts and seams under the arm. These
mold the dress to the figure so as to de-
fine clearly the waist and bust. The
shoulders are cut short to give play to
the full arm and Il proper curve to the
sleeve. The back is made as narrow as
possible, and great care is taken in re-
gard to the gradual sloping OF the seams
OF the back. There should be no full
ness or bagginess in the seams below the
waist-line, which, Mrs. Florence says, is
Il terrible defect, and one too often seen
i'll ill-made basques and palonaise. She
says that one way to prevent this full
ness is to be careful when trying on n
dress to stand perfectly erect. 1t is
natural, when one is tired, as is apt to
be the case III Grcss-iitting, to allow the
shoulders to droop. They are thus
thrown forward. The back is in conse-
quence slightly rounded, and the spine
thrown out. These changes, though
slight, make great difference in the
shape OF dress. In ordering her
dresses in Paris, Mrs. Florence uses her
own judgment and taste, and does not
submit to that of Worth entire, as most
American women do, and as the great
dictator intends, if possible, that they
shall. She has learned that his dresses
are not always satisfactory, are often too
heavy to be carried by large women, to
say nothing of one of medium size, with
great deal of fatiguing stage work to
do besides supporting them. She also
vouches for the statement that American
women are dreadlully swindled by
French modistcs, who show their char
acteristlc ingenuity in getting rid of all
their costumes and goods whether in
fashion or not In dealing with them a
knowledge OF the language and some
Independence and decision are absolute
ly indispensable.

Colorado Republicans Instruct Their Del
egates to support the Nomination of
Grant.
Denver, Col, May 26.-The following
delegates to Chicago were chosen: Ex.
Governor Routt. Lieut.. Governor L.
Head, Amos Sleek, Geo. J. Clark, L. A.
Elliott, M. N. Mcguire. Ex-Gov. Routt
was chosen chairman of the delegates.
A resolution was adopted requesting
the delegates to use all honorable means
to secure the nomination of Grant; de-
claring Grant q fit and competent person
to conduct the affairs OF the nation;
that while the republican party of Colo
RADIO express a preference for the nom-
nation of General Grant, they recog-
nize in jas. G. Blaine one of the purest
patriots and most able men that Amer
ica has ever produced, and, should he be
the nominee, pledge him Colorado by as
large majority as any other candidate
and pledge themselves to support the
Chicago nominee. The convention was
composed of one hundred and six Grant
to sixty-nine anti-Grant delegates, and
was perfectly harmonious, the anti
Grant men making very little fight.

ANT!-HELL-.
An Ecclesiastical sensation in New York.

An Ecclesiastical Sensation in New York.
Special Dispatch to Chicago Tribune.
Rochester, N. Y, May lS.-An eccle-
si.lstical sensation has been caused here
by the Rev. Myron Adams, pastor of
plymouth Congregational church, who
last evening called his people together
especially, as he had something to say
which might affect his standing in the
church. Selecting for ms text, Let
love be without dissimulation," he bold
ly denounced the idea of hell rs the
doctrine of the devil, and took side-by-
side position with Canon Farrar, to-wit:
"Here declare, and call God to witness,
that, if the popular idea of hell were
true, l should be willing to renounce an
Immortality of happiness if thereby L
could save single soul. can conceive
of no happy Immortality while millions
of my fellow-creaturcs, some of whom l
had dearly loved, were at the same time
writhing in agony and without hope"
Mr.. Adams thinks the church is declin-
ing, and says that Bishop Simpsons
statements, in his sermon ut Cincinnati
on Sunday week, are n sort of whistling
to keep up courage. Skepticism is
crushing the church; and the church is
to be blamed for preaching false doc
trines about the future condition of the
race.
The affair produced profound SEN
sation. It is not believed that Mr.
Adams will be forced to resign, as the
principal members Of his congregation
stand by him. Mr.. Adams is graduate
of Hamilton college and Auburn Theo
logical seminary, about 40 years old, anG
one of the most thoughtful and elo
quent preachers in the city. He is son
in-law of the Rev. Prof. Samuel NJ
Hopkins, of Auburn seminary, and |
professed pre-millenialist, and took
4 prominent part in the Tying pre-millen
nial council i'll New York some year
