THE POET.

The orthodox poet and Singer of metre
should be sound sleeper and vigorous
eater; join the learning of Paul to the
fervor of Peter, know the balancing
rhymes and the rythmical teeter
OF llacs and smilaX,
OF zephyrs and heifers,
OF ballads and salads,
Of over-arched bowers of greenery and flow
erS;
And work on one rhyme for hours upon
hours.
Know the whole range Of history from Cleve-
land to Priam, and the thought OF all
lands from New Brunswick to Siam, and
work like drudge at dollar per diem,
love all lovely objects with no cash to buy
'em;
Such as roses and posies,
And mountains and fountains,
And pictures and fixtures.
And gorgeous pavilions for Lauras and Lii
ianS,
And large bank deposit far up in the mill
ions.
His lines should be full of nabobs and
EmrS, of Giaours and Khans and Orient
DIRE amers of cYmbals and shawns and
and victorious streamerS, and end in
climax of glory and screamers,
With crashing and slashing!
With roaring and pouring!
With lunging and plunging!
And burst in chaSm of blank protoplasm!
In gunpowder chaos and dynamite spasm!

SUNDAY SILHOUETTES,
wINsroN,s CrRoassIAN DAmsEL.

! The resignation Of Minister Winston has
been the cause Of no little surprise not only
among his Chicago friends but in the most
recherche society OF Teheran. the minister's
graces having endeared him to the elite of
the Persian capital. A private letter from
the minister's secretary speaks OF Mr.. Win
ston's position being a most enyiable one,
surrounded as he is by all those languerous
Oriental luxuries 80 dear to aSybaritic soul.
Says this letter: picture to yourself, o,
my friend the most serene Frederic ben
Winston seated cross-legged on divan
where he is ensconced among cushions Of
sumptuous Softness and righteousness. He
wears soft jacket of cloth of gold. his
neither limbs are incased in the baggy trou-
sers worn by all the faithful, and a red
fez with gold tassel is perched upon
his brow. He smokes nargileh. which no
longer makes him sick, as at first, and Has
san Ali, his Nuban slave, serves coffee and
sherbet inSg0lden bowls, Respondent with
precious stones. The walls Of the apart
ment are of white marble, studded with
topaz, sardonyx, jasper and chrysoprase; the
floor is of agate, and light is ditfused from
perfumed lamp set in the dome and manu-
featured of single roc's egg.

Summer Gloves and Slippers.

The coolest and most appropriate hand
covering to wear en- suite with elegant black
lace dresses are long black lace mitts.
which reach considerably above the elbow.
The palms and portion of the backs are
in netted silk on some of these mitts; the
remainder is of lace. On others the entire
mitt is of lace, in thread, imitation thread,
Chantilly, Spanish and other patterns.
Slippers and sandals for full dress are
still cut very low and are adorned with
medium-sized silver buckles set with Rhine
stones. These are made either of black or
bronze kid and lined with cardinal silk.
Charles TX. shoes. with straps across the
instep, wrought with jet embroidery, are
shown for demi-toilet, as are also the Louis
XII half-shoes which have revers faced
with black velvet, the shoe itself being in
black satin.
Upon others made of black kid, the
revers cross the instep. These last-named
shoes are by no means graceful on the foot.

FOR NER FASHIONS,
Which, i'm Al, Their Handsomeness,

May Some Day Return.
Just once during the past twenty years
have the dresses of women been fair to
look upon. and then they were inconven-
lent and required good figure to wear
them.
1t is melancholy fact that but few
women have good figure. They appear
to have, but the flowing robes hide many
defects, and Their, too, there are sundry
aids to good figure which can be taken
off and put on at pleasure, and which, un-
attached, would puzzle the most astute
male person to discover the use of.
Do you remember the crinoline which
made such immense hips that with the
puffed-out skirts and long, tight waists a
woman looked like peg top stuck into
cushion?' Oh, that crinoline! Those were
halcyon days for shoplifters. A woman
conld carry off house and lot under those
immense skirts and never be be detected.
There actually was a woman arrested for
stealing potted plants from Greenwood
was found to have over $50 worth of
flowers concealed in ingeniously arranged
pockets in her voluminous skirts.
The Grecian bend was not so bad at Ter
all. 1t was trife ridiculous, to be sui g
and occasionally the big hustle would fetcn
loose from its mcOrings and would slew
around to leeward, or would get un-
hitched in someway, andiwould..wobble in an
alarming fashion that led the Mortified OBJ
server to fear that the fair dame was about
to loose thatFportion of her anatamy. But
it was more graceful than that which pre-
ceded it, because it followed the lines Of
her figure more closely. The name was
vile misnOmer. There was nothing Gre
clan about it.
The ''pullback" followed. In theory this
was pretty. The trouble was that it could
only be worn to advantage by rather tall
women who had moderately good figures.
But the pleasure to be had from gazing
upon one such vision of loneliness abund-
antly repaid lis for the dozens of short, fat
figures which resembled nothing so much
as badly stuffed sausages, or the scrawny,
woman who looked like sticks of
macaroni. The eelskin dress had
its advantages, to be sure; woman thus
clad could rarely sit down, and could never
run.
Then came the high shoulders, which
were introduced to hide the defects of a
hump-backed woman. If there is any,
thing beautiful in nature it is the graceful
curve of the neck and shoulders of pretty
woman. Therein lies the secret of Mrs.
| Langtry's beauty.

His dress suit was of the latest agony
evidently purchased after a successful
|j"deal." Two diamond studs glistened in
his shirt front, perhaps secured after the
same lucky transaction. but he failed to
make due provision for his pedal extremities
True, he wore patent leather CATERS with
silk tops. but he seemed to be painfully con-
scious that the tops were badly frayed and
worn. When he sat down he hid his feet
as well as he could under his chair; and, o,
woful sight! once during the evening he
secluded himself in an obscure corner, pulled
out a small pair of scissors and carefully
clipped the ragged edges from his shoe
tops. Did he ride home from the ball? O,
dear, yes-in cable car. Verify the life
of a Spectator has it's vicissitudes.-Chi-
cago Tribune.

One of the Administrators Jewels.

When, in the course OF human events,
the administration shall happen to have
time to look over its jewels, II will find
that 1t possesses rich and rare gem in the
person Of the postmaster OF Vicksburg, in
the loyal and loveable state OF Mississippi,
the commonwealth TO which the Demo-
cratic party is indebted for all the power 1t
now wields In this nation.
For we hold these facts to be well estab-
lisbed, indeed, notorious, that but for the
Mississippi plan there would have been no
solid south, and but for the southern
solidity, no Democratic administration.
The state OF Mississippi may, therefore,
proudly claim to DO the creator Of the re-
generated Democracy, and the regenerated
Democracy, when It goes forth TO battle in
national campaigns, ought to bear embla-
ZOned on its banner the names OF clamp
ton," "Yazoo," "Copiah,n "Carrollton,"
and those other CORY fields where Its con-
trolling victories, the victories which made
the triumph Of 'S4 possibility, vera won.
But we are getting away from the hero OF
this story, the gem Of the federal collection,
the postmaster Of Vlcksburg, who is also
editor Of the Herald OF that city. Being Il
part Of the administrations lusty sprOut--
and realizing that he and his fellows In
Mississippi created the chance which fructi-
fled In 's4, this postmaster, who Ia also
editor, assumes TO decide who shall aud
who shall not run for oillce. In fact ho

The New civil Service Rules.

In last Thursday's impression we called
attention to the notifications Of the civil
service rules which the commission propose
to submit to the President. The glst Of
what they are pleased TO call modiica-
tion comes from the persistent action Of the
Veterans Rights Union operating upon the
commission with such force as to compel
attention to the law giving preference to
soldiers. Long before this commission
turned the question over In what they call
their minds II was we'll established that the
law created two classes, for II Is plainly writ
ten that all things being equal the soldiers
Of the Union should be preferred, hence
they were In the first or preferred class all
citizens not ex.soldiers In the non-preferred
or general class. The commission By rule
fix G5 per cent. as the minimum limit for
eligibility, hence II soldier pass au exam.
ination at O. per cent, he, having passed, is
under the law entitled to place or vacancy
before all others. This administration then,
In getting up what they call a modification
is simply returning TO the law which was
abandoned by the firing out process
begun under the cry that oil soldiers
were Of necessity offensive par
tsans, and hence began war upon
the scldier because he had been one, which
was only checked by the resistance OF and
strong fight made for the law by the
Veterans Rights Union. This wonderful
modification proposes now that In case
more than four soldiers are on the list Of
eligibles all soldiers being preferred by the
law that only -four shall be certified up
for appointment in the classified service
We are very sure that those having in charge
the concerns Of the veterans will see
through this modification and go further,
and force attention to the fact that the law
does not apply only TO the classified SER
vice, but to laborers and Others outside Of 1t
ss well, and that, In appointments to place
outside Of the service as classified the
soldier is to be preferred, the law is
| specific, and there are so many
cases where appointmcnts-app
favored-are made IN the lower grades,
and then promotions speedily following
into the higher grades, that the classified
service is kept generally up to It's quota
from the lower grades. II the law is APP
| piled all around this cannot occur, and II 1t
is applied according to its tenor and effect
to the lower grades of the service and those
entitled to preference are preferred, then
something like what the law provides for
will be done, and hypocritcal and cantlng
| notifications with view to the throwing
Of dust or muddying the waters will not
prevail.
