Dakota Fashion Notes.

Cooley says that a narrow, white
ruching about the neck is in common
vogue for morning wear. The butcher
says it is lie. That the women he
sees in the morning generally wear
section of old plaid horse blanket around
their necks, with their hair flying, and
''my husband says your steak is so
tough he can't chew it, in their mouths.
Peterson says that skirts should fall
flat in front and shouldn't be too long.
1t doesn't take so much of the old
mans dust, and it enables the wearer to
get the potatoes out of the hill without
iabbing the hoe through the bottom
tlounce.
''Vests are worn especially by young
ladies'" Some of the old married wO-
men have got beyond the vest period,
but their husbands would rather that
there was nothing said about it.
The hair is worn high. Domestic Ia
dies butter their hair, and serve it warm
OH toast; but this is considered bad taste
as it Injuries the toast.
Mosquito netting, after this month,
will not be worn for evening toilette
east of the Missouri.
Seal skin saques will be superseded in
the fall by $l3-butfalo overcoats, with
pockets big enough to hold the chill
dren.

PLOW TRIAL.

The farmers in this vicinity are invit-
ed to witness test of work and draft of
the Celebrated Hapgood Sulky Plow, to
be held on the farm of Coopers Bros,
one-quarter mile south of Cooperstown
Oh the 5th day of September, 1884, COM
mencing at o'clock p. m. We claim
and will prove to you by a scientific test
with a Fairbanks Dynamometer, that
our plow will run lighter on the team
and carry man than common walk
ing plow.
Farmers, do not listen to the stories of
dealers who sell Horse-killing Sulkies,
and who cry fraud and trickery to keep
you from investigating the merits Of
our sulky.
1t is easy to weigh the difference in
the draft of two plows as to find the DIFF =
ference in the weight of two hogs.
The test will be conducted by a COM
mittee of farmers chosen on the ground,
and we will neither hold the plow nor
drive, so that farmers cannot fail to sat
isfy themselves.
TO show our faith, and to make it IN
teresting. we will give any man $40 who
will bring a new walking plOW into the
field that will do good work and draw as
light as our sulky plow in proportion to
the inches cut and turned. Come and
see us. HAPGOOD PLOW Co.

THE CHOLERA RECORD.

GENOA, Aug. 26.-Cholera suddenly
attacked Spezie on the ODD. There were
81 cases last night, Al fatal.
ROME. Aug. 27.-The cholera is in
creasing in Italy. In the province of
Cuneo there have been fifty-eight deaths
in three days.
ROME: Aug. 27.-The fact that the
cholera outbreak in Italy follows Sc
we're rainfall favors the theory of DIR.
Koch. the German expert, that mois-
ture fosters its development.
AS always, the Jews in Toulon and
Marseilles have escaped the rayages of
the cholera. OF the Jewish community
of 1000 souls in Marseilles, only seven
have beer seized with this disease. Two
of these seven were lifelong lnvalids;
another was ninety-seven years of age,
and two others had not observed the
Jewish law. The American Hebrew of
New York ascrlbes this comparative
immunity to the dietary laws Of Juda-
ism. and lifts up it's voice against the
''uDclean offal-feeding things of sea and
land'' which Christian epicures prize so
highly.

ANOTHER NORTH POLE HUNT.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 27.-The New
York yacht club, of which James Cor
don Bennett, Jay Gould, and Cyrus w.
Field, Jr., are members, entertained the
officials of the Greely relief expedition
at dinner few days ago. Chief Engin-
eer Melville, of this city, made speech,
in which he set forth the feasibility of
settling once for all the question Of an
open arctic sea: and that without loss of
life. He stated his willingness to take
command of such an expedition, and
that moderate sum was sufficient to
cover all the expenses. Young Mr..
Fields was perfectly willing to advanc g
half the sum required to meet the ex-
penses OF the expedition. provided the
other members of the yacht club pres
ent would put their names down for the
remainder. This they at once agreed
to. The money was subscribed on the
spot. The expedition will sail from an
American port in the fall of 1885.

LONDON, Aug. 27.-Dispatches from
English sources confirm the news of the
French success at Foo Chow. When
Admiral Courbet ordered his iron clads
to open fire he was gallantly responded
to by a squadron of ten Chinese gun
boats on the river Min. These were
otficered by Europeans. and the Chinese
gunners served their pieces we'll, but the
caliber of the guns was too small for the
shot to inflict serious injury on the
French. The latter fired with terrible
effect, and the discipline was perfect.
From the moment the French guns got
the range on the Chinese boats, a pitt
less rain of iron was kept up. In vain
the Chinese craft steamed hither and
thither. One by one they went down
with great gaping holes in their sides,
until seven of the well fought gunboats
had sunk, withthe dragon flag still fly
ing. The remainder were captured for
want of unwounded men to serve the
guns. The French fleet now moved up
the river and took position opposite the
great arsenal of Foo Chow. its tlanking
forts and water batteries replied at filst
with some spirit, but the French shells
were dropped beyond them in the arse
nal itself. n tremendous explosion
that shook the earth showed that a
French shell had fallen into a powder
magazine. From that moment the
Chinese firing ceased. For three hours
the French guns poured storm of
shells upon the arsenal, which was now
on fire in several places. The signal to
cease firing was at length given, and it
was seen that the place was utterly de-
stroyed. Toward nightfall several de-
tachments of sailors and marines landed
without opposition. The Chinese bat
teres were deserted, and the place was
in the hands of the French. The French
fleet cannot ascend the river any fur
ther. No advance was attempted on
the city of Foo Chow.

Scenes and Incidents of the COnfagratIon at
Mns. Carthage, N. Y.
WATERTowN N Y, Oct. 2L-The Carthage
fire was the most disastrous that ever visited
this part of the State. 1t began in a row of
manufacturing buildings, on the west side of
Black river A heavy wind blew the sparks half
mile across the river to the two islands, which are
flied with manufacturing institutions. The
flames burned everything on the islands, struck
into the residence part Of the town, and swept
the buildings from about seventy-fve acres.
This was the oldest part of the town, and con-
tanned beautifully shaded Streets with fine
dwellings. To-day this territory is mass of
smoldering ruins One hundred and sixty
dwellings were burned, beside manufacturing In
situations, and the Episcopal, Presbyterian, Bap
fist and Disciples churches, the Town Hall. the
Academy, and all other school buildings The
FIRE spread so rapidly that very little household
goods could be saved The fire departments of
WATERFOWL, Lowville Bonneville and Utica
responded to the call for help but as fire would
appear in dozen different places at the same
time the streams from the engines were of lit
tie avail. The yards were filled with dry leaves
which, ignited by flying cinders and famed by
stiff breeze, were soon in blaze. There were
one hundred dwelling houses on fire at the same
time The people worked hard for several
hours to save property They then became
panic-stricken and all last night hundreds of
them roaming the streets or lying in spots
where the fire had not touched. Every place of
shelter in the village was filled with women and
children. large number of people were
brought to this city, where they had friends to
care for them
It is impossible to correctly picture the scenes
of yesterday afternoon and last night Strong
men were weeping. and women and children
crying as they realized that everything they
possessed was being swept away. The people
thrown out Of employment and who have lost
everything they had will suffer unless assist
ance is rendered. Money can be sent to Allen

A Canadian VILLAGE Destroyed.

QUEBEC, Oct. 2L-News from Gaspe has just
reached here to the effect that the fire which is
clearing the bush land spread during last night
to the village of Chlorydormi, destroying all the
houses and boats of the place and rendering
twenty families homeless. The people at first
took shelter in the woods but were soon sur
rounded by fire and obliged to flee to the sea
coast, where they are utterly destitute Imme-
date assistance is necessary, but the fishing
along the coast having been very poor this
season, the neighboring villages can render but
scanty aid to the unfortunate sufferers One
family is reported missing. The poor people
saved nothing, and their suiferings will be very
great unless assistance reaches them soon.

tween Mataae and Gaspe
