A Comprehensive System y


The Dallas and Northwestern rail
way will probably prove to be the most
comprehensive system Of railroads
running out Of Dallas, The charter,
we believe, specifies the counties OF
Dallas, Tarrant, Wise, Clay, Mon
tague, Denton, Cooke, Jack, Young,
Baylor, etc. and now the Herald says:
"The Western counties all seem to feel
assured that we are TO have the North
western road, and the Glen Rose Cit
izen says when the line is completed
to Stephenville 1t will have 10 be ex-
tended TO Glen Rose" 1t Is to be re-
GREETED that the Herald did not ex-
plain how q Northwestern road was to
run In southwesterly direction, and
how a road that was to touch
Montague on the northwest
and Stephens on the west
was then to double on Its track
and touch Somervell on the south.
We do not doubt that IL can be done,
just rs easily as the $1,000 600 were
raised in Dallas to build the road, for,
II we know aught of railroad building,
1t is only those built OF iron and wood
that seek straight line. Paper rail.
roads can be made to run in any direc.
tion accessible to lead-pencll. 1t is
the Herald that promises the North.
western shall run north, west and
south, but the genius of the Times Ii
dlscernlble in the route selected.

THE BUSTLE AND CLOCK.

One Instance Where That Hideous Mon
strosity Proved Available, if Not Useful.
An amusing story reaches us from
Paris. On Friday last a lady having
paid her hotel bill, sent away her boxes
on a cab and sailed forth on foot. No
sooner had she departed than the land
lord discovered that the clock had dis
appeared from the mantelpiece Of the
room which his late lodger had been
occupying, though he remembered to
have seen it there subsequent to her
trunks being dispatched. Convinced
that she must be the thief he rushed
out in hot pursuit, and, o%vertaking her,
he charged her with the robbery and
gave her into custody, the lady mean
while protesting loudly against the in
dignity offered her, and vowing VEN
gcance against the traducer. She was,
however, taken before the Judge din
struction, to whom she resumed her
torrent Of indignant denial with the ex-
traordinary volubility peculiar to the
daughters of Gaul. Her Indignation
was at its height when 10! twelve
O'Clock rang forth in clear tones from
the region OF madame's dress improver.
The expression of CONSERVATION de-
picted on the fair pilferer's counte-
nance, together with the appositencss
of the strange phenomenon, were too
much for the gravity of the officials,
who burst into a fit of uncomfortable
laughter. Five minutes later a female
warder returned the tell-tale time-piece
to it's owner. Will Mr.. Oscar Wilde
still insist upon. 'the utter uselessness
sof that hideous monstrosity-the bus
tle?'-PuW Mall Gazette.

we get up plain white and red and white
sugared corn, of assorted ~tlavors, for

you know, are largely used for decorat-

what are called coarse corn cakes,
made with pure Porto Rico molasses,
and put up in glass-front cans, and a
ground or fine corn cake, also made
with molasses, and put up in tin boxes.
The latter are especially for the South
ern and Western trade, but there is
also a large demand for them in New
England"

melogically, asw we know, tact is touch,

COUNTERFEIT t
New Processes by Which They Are Made
and How to Detect Them-Photography's
Aid CalIed Tn.

New Processes by Which They Are Made
and How to Detect Them-Photography's
Aid Called In.
1.-The photographed counterfeit bank
bill is very common" said John S..
Dye, Government counterfeit detective,
yesterday. ''There are two processes,
called the odd and the new By the
old process the whole of the back of
the note is copied and appears in black
on the photograph. 1t is then tinted
with pens and brushes by hand. The
black, however, a be seen under. the
tint, which on the seal is blotted and
covers the white lines which appear in
the genuine note. The numbering is
also blurred with color and the whole
of the tinting on the back of the note is
badly done and incomplete.
THE detection of the photographed
counterfeits depends upon a critical OBJ
servation of their character and appear
ance. Unless they are perfectly new,
they are off color and show the reddish
brown, peculiar to faded photographs.
BY the new process the seal, numbers
and color-work on the back, whether
pink. carmine, chocolate or green, are
first entirely removed from the note to
be initiated. A negative is then taken
from the black which remains. To
produce the color-work an engraved
plate of the seal, and the tinted part of
the back are used and the tints are
clearly surface-printed in their places.
The numbers are also printed in colors
from separate engraved figures used in
combination and changeable. These
figures are well done and run in a
series, and, unlike the spurious bills
made by the old process, are really
dangerous.
"All genuine bills are printed from
plates made four in a set and letters
respectively A, b, c and d, except in
a few cases where certain banks have
been supplied Witht:lls lettered respec-
lively %, F, G and H. These are called
check letters and appear in various
places upon the face OF notes or bills,
according to their issue and denomina-
ton. Now here is the description of a
f%ive-dollar counterfeit bill, taken in
New York City a few days ago: Check
letter A, series 1875, act of March 3,
1868, Treasury number B342O232, plate
-, John Allison, Register; A. U.
Wyman, Treasurer. 1t is one of the
old style photographs, printed on
plain paper, coarse and heavy. The
seal and cyloid work are very pale and
the numbering fair. The l%atherwork
on back and in two counters on the
face is SO blurred that hardly a line
can be seen. The green ink and red
numbers are very good so far as the
shade of color goes. The note on face
has a blurred appearance and is very
dark. 1t is Of the same length as the
genuine bill. The counterfeit is not
dangerous, but well calculated to de-
celve the inexperienced. Immigrants
ore the most frequent dupes.

counterfeit plates of modern times Is

Inc Kind of Headgear Which Stylish La.
dies Wear in Cold Weather.
Felt round hats, fish-wife pokes
pointed high above the forehead, and
turbans of cloth, velvet. or fur, are
by young girls. The color is
chosen to match the jacket or New
market coat, which may be worn with
various dresses, and the trimmings are
OF velvet passed around TIE crown in
one plain fold, then massed in loops
that stand up against the crown on the
lett side. Some sharp wings are thrust
IN these loops, and on the right. side is
a gilt or silver pin or other ornament.
Cloth turbans of the dress goods have
folds forming the crown, and a velvet
covered brim that rests close against
the crown. Felt pokes are the most
becoming hats to girls of this age,a and
seem designed especially for them.
The brim has usually a puff of velvet
coming over its edge, and the only
other trimming needed is a cockade
bow OF loops and forked ends of velvet
ribbon. Sometimes wool lace the
color OF the felt is gathered along the
brlm, or else forms a rosette on the left
side.
A narrow standing linen collar or a
frill OF muslin or lace is worn around
the neck by young girls. White null
and velvet ribbon bows are used to
fasten this. but most girls prefer a SIM
ples breastpin that is convenient
to wear with any dress. Ear
rings are nov seldom seen on Girls in
theirteens, and many of the rising gen
Grafton refuse altogether to have holes
bored in their ears. The simplest ur-
rangement of the hair is adopted by
schoolgirls, such as hanging braids, or
else a braided knot low on the nape of
the neck, while the front NAV be
brushed back smoothly from the fore
head if it is low, or cut in a bang that
may cover part of a high forehead, and
perhaps result in inducing the hair to
grow lower down. Crimping the hair
on pins is always injurious, but espcc-
tally when it is growing fast in youth;
plating the back hair in MANY small
braids at night is the safer way of MAX
ing it light and fluffy. Stockings are
chosen to match the dress in color, or
else black stockings are worn with any
dress. Buttoned CATERS for misses are
now made with the low English heels
that are becoming popular along with
other wholesome English fashions.
Calf-skin of light quality is used this
winter both for ladies' and for Young
girls shoes. For more dressy shoes
patent-leathers with colored cloth tops
are chosen, and black French kid boots
or slippers are worn with light wool or
muslin dresses. Tan-colored gloves of
either dressed or undressed kid are fur
nished in misses sizes, and are appro-
pirate with any dress.-Ha1pe1's Ba-
