THE New York young lady's advice about

TIE male and female portions of the col
ored Baptist copgreg alton at Milledgeville,
Ga, are on different sides of question con-
corning the pastor of their church. The

guard over the shepherd OF the flock, VOW
IMP she would "knock the stufin' outer any

story is IN circulation in certain sporting
circles concerning the elopement of a you 1g
lady of very high rank and noble birth with

ALTHOUGH the bal masquc last week at the
Paris Opera was badly attended, some of the
ladiess' dresses were very chic and original.
Tire. fair jewellers in close-6tting black
satin costumes, with enormous coal-sctttle
bonne.s trim med with ostrich feathers, excited
considerable curiosity. Another eccentric
dress was that of lady in black demino,
who had an elongated A, with a small Z

ACCOUNTS of young girls being enticed
from their homes, by low, scheming, villain
Gus men, are becoming distressingiy frequent
nowadays. Such occuFF11ces are q sad re-
Election upon parental discipline in Ameri-
can families, and forcibie argument in
favor Of more restricted and formal code
