Slavic people and the Riots.

F. j. Pribyl of Montgomery, Mimi,
sends lengthy communication to the
GLOBE. In it he says:
Having read the reports of the GLOBE and
other papers about the late riots in St. Louis,
Milwaukee and Chicago I learnt that the
Catholic Bohemians in st. Louis, where they
are quite numerous, took no part whatever in
the riot there; and the names of GrOtkan,
Hirth, Messenger, Simon, Spies, Schawb, Par
sons, Fielding and Lingg, persons arrested in
Milwaukee and Chicago. certainly do not in
dictate the Slavic race. Yet these German
and American or English criminals the dis
ciples Of Herr Most, are the acknowledged
leaders of the Milwaukee and Chicago an
archie bloody storms. If some Bohemians
and Poles also formed a part of the turbulent
crowds it should not be forgotten that they
were likewise among the defenders of law
and order. The KoSciusko guards are all
Polanders, and the policeman, Keller, shot in
Chicago, is a Bohemian. Hence the facts
point to the German nationality
principally when anarchists are in question,
and how could agree with your statement,
MIR. Editor, that 'it is q singular fact that the
anarchists in this country belong almost ex-
clusively to the Slavic people?' Is this not
singular falsehoodT'
But you ask me to remember that the
Lusatian branch of the Germans is comprised
lin part) of the remnants of the Slavs of North
Germ any, and if there are German socialists
they are in reality part of the Slavic popu-
lation.'
Mr.. Editor, this India rubber argument
breaks by too great stretching to gain point.
A little cream in milk does not make it
cream; nor can small Slavic tribe absorbed
by Germans centuries ago make the latter
Slavic.
You say "exclude the anarchist from our
population, no matter what his nationality
may be-" This sentiment I heartily repeat
with you. There are good and bad men
among all nations who place themselves I'M
der the American flag. Let US give honor to
whom honor is due. Let the law-loving and
Industrious rejoice under our beaming stars,
but the lazy and turbulent howl from the
beating stripes of our great flag.

How to make stylish aprons.

Fancy aprons for ladies' morning wear
are growing more and more elaborate. Fine
scrim is used very generally for this pur-
pose, and they are decorated most elabor.
ately with ribbons and cross-stitch embroi.
derry. Such aprons may be bought all ready
made at the decorative art stores or thew
may make pretty fancy work.
Pretty, dressy aprons that have been
fashionable ror so many years are again
brought forward among the dainty access
series In our furnishing stores.
One pretty style Of apron is made of a
plain width of course ecru scrim, the bot.
tom trimmed with Russian lace. Above
the hem is band of drawn work, and over
this is a Russian pattern in embroidery in
dark green, red and orange. A broader
band of embroidery and drawn work ia
across the middle of the apron. The top in
sloped out in front and put on an embroid-
cred band without fullness, and that part
that will not set in the band without max.
ing it hang badly is left to '.fop. =, like tha
sides of the white aprons that butchers
wear.
A novel style of apron is in ecru batiste.
Its plainly hemmed at the bottom and laid
the entire length in broad box plaitss These
plaits are covered half way down with em-
broidery or colored laces, and finished with
points at the lower end, the center piece
being the longest, the sides growing short
in proportisn. There are seven large tri M
med plaits.

Joaquin,s seif-ExiIe.

From New York Letter.
Joaquin Miller has separated from his
wife, whom he married only six years,ago,
and who was a Leland OF. the noted hotel
keeping family. He has gone to Mexico,
ayowing his intention of spending the rest
of his life there, and Mrs. Miller remains in
this city. The couple have not been to-
gether much during the paststwo years, for
the wife declined to share the poets Wash
ington log cabin with him, and never even
entered it, but stayed at her. usual residence
in Twenty-ninth street here. There was
no quarrel, however, and isnone now. The
lady declares that she loves and admires
her cratic husband and that he has the
same regard for her, but that they find it
comfortable to stay apart. Friends cogni-
zant of the facts say that Miller's oddities
are not assumed, but are realisms in Curl
ously constituted man. Hislgoing to- Mex
leo is looked on by them as trip rather
than a permanent change Of abode, and
they anticipate thathe will return in year
or so with matter for a new volume of trop-
zeal poetry. His Songs of the Sferras'
have never been equalled in artistic or
financial success by any of his later writ
ings, and his present intention is inter-
preted as forthcoming book of verse that
shall have freshnesso of scenery and thought.
sAll rumors of marital troubles are posi-
lively denied.

Soft and white Hands.

GOOU hOuSekeopluS.
A woman whose pretty hands are being
ruined by washing in hard water, writes to
ask remedy. Water can be easily soft
ened with few drops of ammonia, or what
is better, a small piece of lump borax.
Warm water, into which enough borax has
been dissolved to make the water feel lit
tie slippery when pressed between the
thumb and finger, is very good for washing
the hands. Hands kept dirty are never
smooth and white. Absolute cleanliness is
necessary, Many people who dc. not work,
wash them ehands but seldom. The days
accumulation of dirt is allowed to remain
on the hands all night. Upon rising the
hands are washed in cold water. The pos
SCISSOR, wonders why, when she does no work,
her hands do not look any better, if as well, as
her chambermaid's. The hands should al
ways be washed in warm soapsuds before
going to bed. White soaps are safest.
Highly-scented and colored soaps are al
most invariably made from rancid and i'll
smelling fats. After the hands are thor
oughly dried, use few drops of mixed
glycerine and camphor, which the druggist
can prepare for you. Drop into the palm
of the hand and rub on the hands. This
will be all that will be necessary to show
decided Improvement.

GRArTAN,s pARL1AmENr.

The Chamber i'm which the Irish
ri Legislature Assembled.
Pail Mall Gazette.
The Irish parliament house, in which
Grattan's parliament met, is now used by
the Bank of Ireland. The building is To-
Gated near the Trinity college structure.
The house of lords, by perverse survival
for it, at all events, is not likely to be
wanted-remains to the present day unal-
tered, but debased to the pecuniary pur-
poses Of the Bank of Ireland,
still adorned, however, with the
tapestries of the battle of the Beyne. and
the siege of Derry, which gratified the
Protestant peers century ago. The COM
mons room, as it appears to have been
called at the time, was originally built in
an octagonaI form. 1t was fifty-fve feet in
diameter. and was inscribed in square.
The seats were disposed round the center
of the room in concentric circles. rising one
above the other; dome above Corinthian
columns crowned the whole; there was
gallery five feet broad for strangers
The dimensions were according to modern
ideas minute. They can scarcely have
been room to seat the 800 members of which
the house was composed. We are told,
however. in Warburton's History of Dub
lin, that 1.-THE appearance of the house as
sembled below from the GALAXY corresponds
with its Importance, and presents dignity
that must be seen to be felt" 1t was this
octagonal building which on February 81,
1893, while the house was sit
ting about 5 in the afternoon,
accidentally caught fire and was entirely
consumed. 1t was, however, speedily re-
built in circular form, and if a building is
wanted for new home rule parliament
there will be no difficulty in reconstructing
1t out OF the Offices and counting houses
into which it has been sacrilegiously con-
verted. Though the interior has been so
much altered the external appearance of
the Bank of ireland remains very much
the same as 1t was when first erected tor
the use OF the parliament at an expense of
FAC, 900, in the reign OF George ii. The
only differences noticeable are in the fig
ures which surmount the pediment. On
the original building were seen statues OF
Hibernia with aspear and harp, Liberty
with her cap and Justice with her scales,
which are not now to be found, and had
disappeared in 1903, possibly because these
goddesses left Ireland in despair en- event
which might have occurred at any period

PIN-MONEY POINTERS.
Cheap and Lovely Bonnets.-Eco-
nOmicaI Hints for Dresses.

Laces of all kinds are extraordinarily
cheap this season. Exquisite yard-wide
founces of Yak, Valenciennes and Tor
chon can be purchased for from SO to So. so
a yard, and a dress Of null, silk or other
material with front of lace is suitable for
many occasions. A yard is sufficient for
the front, and IS gathered full, at the waist,
falling in a three-quarters founce to the
hem. A lace front saves dress material and
the time consumed in trimming. Black
laceS are very desirable on black silk
dresses, and saves silk They also hide the
seams or stains in made-over dresses, and
have an elegance that other trimmings lack.
A lovely little bonnet is made out Of
coarse black straw, trimmed with six loops
of black velvet in front and cluster of
pale blue forget-me-nots. The strings are
of black gauze or pale blue ribbon. The
latter win look almost as well as the flow
ers if they are too expensive. The combi-
natione OF pale blue is very fashionable this
season. = ? r. :;
The knitted and crochet underwaists now
worn may be made at home at one-half the
cost. Finest split zephyr should be used,
with the long or half stitch. A simple
scallop finishes the edge, and narrow RIB
bon is run about the shoulders and sleeves.
An economical and tasteful bonnet for an
old lady Is made is made out of three-
quarters pfa yard Of black bonnet silk,
costing about SO cents. This should be
purchased one Side plain. and the other on
the bias, and put over light frame. The
bias ends is used for bands and bows, and
the straight end for the crown.
Old-fashioned delaine is among the
novelties shown this spring, and an excel
lent quality. that will wash well sells in
mostFof the stores at Is cents yard. The
patterns are pretty and Varied and come in
both dark and light tints.
Ladies who expect to make their own
wash dresses for the summer should have
waist lining fitted on them by good
dressInaker. This may be then ripped
apart and used fora pattern. An ill-fittine
basque spols the look of any dress.
Dresses of J whis6 mull, trimmed with
Valenciennes lace, are among the prettiest
for graduation and wedding gowns. One
seen recently had the front entirely of lace
and pleated panels of null edged with lace.
The basque was cut with square neck and
elbow sleeves and also edged with lace.
Exquisite little bonnets for the evening
are being made at home by young ladies
with deft fingers. A becoming frame is Sc
cured and covered with thin white goods of
some kind. This is put on plain or shirred
and covered with either Vdenciennes.

into the Hands of Police.
'sEvery once in while people read in
the papers how a.man who has just done
job has skipped, leaving no traces behind
him." said central office detective to a.
New York Herald reporter. "The first
thing they do is to blame the detectives.
Then. year or two perhaps afterward,
they hear that the man has been caught
Then they praise the detectives for skill
and perseverance as much as they blamed
him before. They were wrong to blame
the detectives in the first place, and Pm
not sure they were right in praising them
so highly afterward. In ordinary crcum-
stances any criminal is sure to be caught.
You say there are many crimes never
unraveled. That's so. But in most of
them the police get to know who did the,
job as well as they know who stole Broad
way, but they can't get the evidence, and
so they lie low and wait. In few excep-
tiOnal cases it's best not to punish anybody.
IF man runs away the police can
pinch him nine times out of ten lust by
watching his home. Shakespeare never said
truer thing than when he said: There's

of some kind that he's going to

and as soon as he thinks the coast is clear
he's going to that home. All the police
have to do is to find out that home. watch
it, and nab their man when he shows up.n

The Great Match Industry.

new YOrk Letter TO cincinnati Enquirer.
A match is small thing, but in the man.
ufacture of matches one of the great cor.
porations of this country has grown up.
1t originated in combination of the lead
ing match manufacturers. The capital
stock is somewhere in the vicinity of $20,-
600, 900 to $25, 600, 900. Last year divi-l
dend of per cent. was declared on this
capitalization. The combination does not
have entirely clear sailing. 1t is obliged at
times to put prices down to the cost in or
der to drive competitors out of the business.
Talking at the Hoffman house yesterday
with John Robinson, the Chicago mana
ger of the company, he said: ''They have
got matches down to fine point in Michi-
gan. They are selling three boxes, that is
900 matches, for 2 cents. There was lit
tie factory started at Grand Rapids.
Matches was then selling at $3.50 a case.
They put down the price little and we
were obliged to meet them. They kept
running, down and we kept meeting
them until it got down to $1.25 case.
Then we took the initiative and dropped to
81. The retailers had stocked up at from
$1.25 to SITS, which were thought bottom
prices. Now they had to get rid of the
matches at any sacrifice, and they began to
cut. Wnen tney nau SlaSned around TO the
dollar limit one man, who had been losing
trade by the drive on matches, put his down
to three boxes for cents. That is SO cents
case, or cents less than he can duplicate
them for. The other dealers offered to bny
out his stock, but he wouldn't sell. He
saw his trade coming back with the sale of
matches at this price" Itstruck me in this

The Rohemians Dafandad.

The Rev. FIR. ITCHY writes to the GLOBE
from New Prague, defending strongly the
Bohemians from the attacks of the Chicago
Times, in connection with the recent riots in
Chicago. He says:
AT a mass meeting Of Bohemians from
Scott and LIE Sueur counties, held at New
Prague, May 18, the following resolutions
were adopted:
Whereas, Socialists and communists of Chi
cago melted a bloody riot on May l., killing
many innocent persons and guardians of law /:
Whereas, The detestable communistic
leaders OF German and English nationality iu-
cited also many Bohemians our countrymen,
to join in the riot, and
Whereas, Some English newspapers of
Chicago and elsewhere. especially the Chicago
Times, on that account took occasion to
shamefully abuse the whole Slavic race for
the crimes of some misled Bohemians and
Poles: Therefore, be it
Resolved, That we, the Bohemian Catholics
OF New Prague and vicinity, express our ut
most adherence and dotestation of commun-
ism and its hellish practices, and hope to see
Its leaders and followers everywhere receive
condign punishment.
Resolved, That we deprecate the folly of
some OF our countrymen, who, in this land of
liberty, renowned their allegiance to the
Catnoho church, the divinely constituted
guardian OF authority and order, and become,
IN consequence, the dupeS and prey of social
istic, infidel demagogues.
resolved, That we regard all Bohemian
socialists as renegades from cur faith and
nation to be summed by us as pestiferous
persons.
Resolved, That we deprecate the unjust
proceedings of a part of the American press,
especially the Chicago Times. which, while
justly indignant over the horrors of the
socialistic riot and its authors, makes the
whoe Slavic race responsible for the detest-
able crimes of q few den6ed individuals who
acted but secondary part under the German
and English socialistic agitators and we call
upon this press in the name of truth and
justice to remove the false and unjust impress
siens; and finally.
Resolved, That the proceedings and resolu-
tons be forwarded for publication to the St.
Paul GLOBE and to other leading English and
Bohemian newspapers.
Similar resolutions were adopted by Catholic
Bohemians of Montgomery, LIE Sueur county,
OF Veseli Rice county, of Heidelberg and
other places.
