A Princess Trousseau,
From a London Tlmea


There is an attempt to revive in the tpous-
seau of the Princess Marie of Charities the
fashions set by her grandmother, the Duchess
OF Orleans. Some of the dresses are copied
from portraits of that Princess which were
taken IN the halcyon period Of her life. They
have the neatly pleated bertha which is
crossed over TO the left side in front, and the
long stomacher waist. Other dresses have
belt and broad buckles, and some low bodied
ones are to be worn with white chemlsette
These can be turned into morning dresses
with the adJunctlon of pelerines crossed at
the waist and brought around into a bow
behind.
Apart from what may be called the ances-
trail style OF toilets, there will be others in the
Marie AntOlnette and Anne of Austria STYLE
The Princess, having fair skin and fresh
country complexion, is able to wear green.
Some OF her walking dresses will be in WOOL
ems of this color, very neatly made and trim
med sparingly with velvet and narrow gold
and silver braid. Her dinner and evening
gala dresses are in pale blue and pale pink of
various materials. There are some OF game
shot with silver and threads of the color lust
named with the flowers of silver.
The court dresses will be very rich The
Princess Will receive the share of the Jewels
laces and fans OF the Duchess of Orleans which
the Duchess OF Charities inherited. The fans
were executed by the greatest painters of
France and ordered as wedding presents for
the Duchess by the Due d'Orleans and Louis
Philippe.
should not forget the classical looking and
elegantly simple dresses in white nuns veil
ing and WOODEN stun. hey are to be worn
with rose or bouquet of natural flowers in
the corsage, and another in the hair. Some of
the riding habits have cOrsages in the eigh-
OF her family, the Princess is a great equestri-
enue.

Drummers' Tax.

An ordinance was introduced into the
City Council last night to modify that
part of the tax ordinance which levies a
tax on drummers. The modification con
sists In permitting the drummers to take
orders for goods from resident dealers for
five days in year without the payment
Of any tax.
1t is thought that this ordinance will
pass without much, if any, opposition.
But will it prove wholly satisfactory?
Why not do at once what the Council will
eventually have to do, viz; abolish the
drummers' tax altogether.
To grant drummers the right to sell
goods for five days without the payment
Of tax will cause annoyance and irri-
ton, and the Limitation will benefit nobody
The drummers, when they visit the city
will hurry through with their business, 80
as not to occupy more than five days in
all the visits they may have to make to
the city within year.
The proposed ordinance gives the i'm
preston that drummers are not wanted
In the city, and that II is desirable that
they should get through with their busi-
ness as quickly as possible, and leave.
Drummers, as a rule, are very desirable
visitors, and they ought to be permitted
to take all the time they want to show
their goods. If it is right that they should
sell their goods for five days in year
without being taxed, it is right that they
should be permitted to sell them for more
than five days If the purpose of the ordl-
nance Is to strike at a class of travelling
traders who stop in a town for weeks
at a time and drum up retail trade, let
that fact be made plain. Let traders OF
that sort be required to pay tax. If the
law is modified, as proposed, it will be diff
iicult matter to determine when a drum
mer has reached his limit of five days.
Somebody will have to be employed to look
after the drummers, and that will be ex-
pensive, and not pleasant. 1t VIII be
wiser to abolish the tax altogether.

A STORY OF GEN. TwIGGs.
How He Played Prank on Gen. Pnlo,

How He Played a Prank on Gen. Pillow.
Gen. TwIggs, says Ben: Perley Poore, was
one of the most prominent officers of the sold
army" and fought gallantly in Mexico. He
was born and reared in Georgia, where he
owned large plantations and many slaves.
He was good friend but relentless enemy,
and he never failed to express his hearty con-
tempt for the officers of volunteers. After
The battle of Contreras, in the Mexican war,
Twiggs was reclining beneath tree, with his
orderly holding his horse. just then Gen.
Pillow came riding up in great uneasiness of
mind. Duncan's battery was reported to be
captured. and 1t belonged to Pillows com
mand. Pillow was almost distracted at the
thought OF this calamity, and appealed to
IWlggs TO get his opinion as to whether he
thought the battery was lost, and what he had
better do under the circumstances.
Il think II is quite likely the battery has
been CAPTURED" replied Twlggs, turning over
on his side, while his eyes emitted a malicious
satisfaction.
"IIeavens?" CALCULATED Pillow. "what shall
| do?"
Better send out a regiment to look for
them" rejoined his prosecutor.
"Oh! II | could only find Gen. Scott"
moaned Pillow, wringing his hands. "Can
you direct me to his headquarters?"
Indeed can, general" returned TWiggs.
Wont you assist me to discover it? | will
take 1t as special favor" continued Pillow.
why certainly" replied Twiggs, who had
now tofmented the other sufficiently. "Or-
DERBY, my horse.''
Mounting, he rode forward with Pillow by
his side, and in ten minutes was at Scott's
tent. Duncan's battery had been safe all the
while, and Twiggs knew it.

messenger il Mr.. Bayard was in, and offered
his card TO be taken in. The messenger re-

The result Of the elections in France
excites deep interest throughout Europe.
The wonderful gains of tire Conservatives
was great surprise. 1t was not expected
that the new method of electing members
of the Chamber Of Deputies would prove
to be advantageous to the Conservatives
Under the old method the elections We're
by districts, and under the new by depart
ments.
The Conservatives are not friends of the
republic. They are divided into factions,
but they are all Monarchists. They will
use their powers, doubtless, whenever an
opportunity presents itself, to deal the
republic blow.
The Republicans are the real friends of
the republic. They recognize as their
leaders the men who are now at the head
of affairs.
The Radicals are about as dangerous to
the republic as the Conservatives are.
hey want changes, but the changes
which they want are not such as to place
the republic on a frmer foundation. The
danger in carrying out their Wild theories
is in losing the republic altogether. In
some of the departments there will have
to be a second ballot, and the Republicans
still have hope that they will be able to
retain control of affairs. The hope, how
ever, is very slender.
The present indications are that there
are rather stormy times in store for
France. The meeting Of the new Cham
Der OF Deputies will be waited for with
deep interest.

Senator Hoar does not treat fairly the posi-

Senator HOar consented to and defended IN

What Republican President since 1876 has

HOar introduced in Congress since 1876

what measure of another has he advocated?
has he protested against the seating of any

The Timber Thieves,

The Secretary Of the Interior has Or
dered suit to be begun against the great
est lumber company in Montana for cut
ting timber on government land without
authority.
This lumber firm, it seems, was favored
by the Northern Pacific railroad above
all other firms along it's line, and it had
therefore a monopoly Of the lumber BUSH
ness over wide extent of territory. At
times it has had in its employment as
many as 5000 men. 1t stripped valuable
timber from thousands OF acres, and if it
hasn't grown enormously rich it is not
because it didn't sell for a very high
price what cost it very little.
There is no more reason why the gov
eminent should show leniency to timber
thieves than to thieves of any other sort.
1t is as great crime to rob the people by
stealing the timber from the public lands,
as it is to steal money directly from the
Treasury.
When the Secretary of the Interior be-
gins prosecuting timber thieves, however.
it is probable that he will have his hands
full. There are other places than Mon
tana where government timber is made to
contribute to the wealth of private par
ties. For years the government has been
compelled to pay small army of special
agents to watch the governments timber
lands.
The Secretary OF the Interior will find
that honest men all over the country will
applaud him il he pushes vigorously the
prosecution OF timber thieves, without IA
yor, wherever they may be found.
