up evidently to show how little breadth

rev top, imagine still narrower and high
rising tuft of trimming, and large quota

becomingness there is likely to be in 81
highly condensed specimens ofart and while
chubby faces have certainly the worst OF 1t,
vet the contour of pbysiognomy lacking
breadth vet surmounted by an arrangement
which adds perpendicular lines where horl-
zontal curves are requisite, is scarce more
attractive than the face of an apple cheek
ed damsel set off by ornamentation grotes-
quely unsuitable. Thus nobody will be
suited or rather, perhaps, scarce anybody
and many who are young enough will take
refuge in hats which are in unusual variety
of shape for the winter season. But while
in bonnets there are leading characteristics
such as notable narrowness and Increased
length at the back yet there is great variety
rs to smaller finishings. Some have fancl-
full scalloped edges, set round with beads;
others show three wide scaliOps over the
forehead, filled in with trimming, ETC..

The democratic congressman appear
to have rather hard row to hoe in Sc
curing the endorsement OF renOmina-
ton. The endorsement Of a resolution
is given them as easy as falling off a log,
but the Instructions to delegates which
is so comforting a supplement to the
resolutions is not forthcoming, and the
uncertainty of the situation grows pain
full to those who aspire to be their own
successors at Washington. The con-
gressional session just closed has had
such a dispiriting effect upon the
democracy of the country that they
strike Unfortunately against the MEN,
bers who have been the cause OF disgust
ing the nation with such an exhibition
OF democratic lnoompetency. 1t Is safe
to say that more new men will be found
on the seats of the next house Of repre-
sentatives than will be at all acceptable
to those who are now holding down the
benches of Cleveland and reform. This
ousting of representatives in 1856 is a
sure precursor of the ousting OF the
democracy in 1888.

SAM JONES is a decided success as a

polltico-religious-prohibition policy
out Of the incongrous mass Of his plat
form utterances he loses his bearings
worse than Jonah did. The religious
nature of Sans democracy is not half SO
apparent as the genuine democratic
flavor of his religion. His ability to mix
party politics with his temperance talk
and flavor his gospel with democratic

The prophecies that have been made,
concerning the certainty Of such and
such precincts and counties sending
delegates in the interests OF certain can
didates, do not come out true. The
mind of the people does not respond to
the mind OF the prophet. That which
shall be is that which will surely come
to pass, but what that particular thing
is likely to be no man knoweth, so far as
the Democratic State convention is con-
cerned. There be many who would give
good money to be able to pin their pOlti-

WHY THE STATUE is NOT
LIGHTED.

The Washington Post publishes
an article saying that the Bartholdi
statue remains unlighted because
different branches of the government
are waiting for each other to take
the initiative. At the treasury de-
partment it is stated that the depart
ment is powerless to act because the
statue has not been turned over to
the department by the president as
it is maintained the law requires. At
the White House it is said that the
president has no objection to making
the order necessary for Illuminating
the statue, but he understands that
the statue is, under the law, subject to
the control of the lighthouse board,
and he is waiting for that bureau to
Law the matter before him through
the secretary of the treasury. Comdr.
Picking of the light house board said
it would be possible TO light the stat
ne from funds contributed by private
persons, but he did not think such
an extreme course necessary. He
believed that funds could be found
in the lighthouse appropriations to
pay for the illumination of the stat
ne provided the president would Or
der its illumination. AT present their
hands were tied. The lighthouse
board is said to have collected a
large amount of data regarding the
illumination 1t finds that 5000 q
month will be required to illuminate
the statue with the same kind of light
as that used during the unwilling
ceremonies. The light house boaro
has given considerable attention to
the mode of lighting. Itis though
to be impossible to illuminate the
statue so that it will be seen at night
owing to its dull, non-refecting sur
! face.
