these varieties are, they serve to prevent
that tiresome similarity which too often be-
comes monotonous and common.
Skirts exceedingly full at the back are
still holding their sway both here and abroad,
hut it is still matter of congratulation
that the absurdIy bOmfant crinoline is kept
in allegiance on this side of the water. 1t is
true that many of the best-dressed women
wear the tournure, but instead of ungainly
steel they content themselves with box
plated folds of very stiff muslin or crino-
line fastened low on the inside Of
the dress skirt On the back 1t is con-
sidered exceedingly bad taste to wear the
tournure high up to the waist.
In new millinery wares are close, grace
full cottage bonnets, whose pretty shapes
are almost spoiled by the towering trim
mings built upon the fronts. These do not
suit long slender faces, and the only way
to render them satisfactory is to purch ase
the little velvet or felt bonnet, ana then
order the trimmings to be lowered to rem
der the bonnet thing of beauty, sure to
prove becoming. The new fishwife poke
is chic, natty and stringless, and has full
pulled brim of velvet, round soft crown,
and IS trimmed with beaded aigrette loops
of satin and velvet Picot ribbon. The bon
net is made of all the rich full shades in
russell and golden brown, ruby, moss green,
etc. One pretty model is made of dark
wine velvet trimmed, with net work of
pink and ruby beads and a cluster Of pink
ostrich tips dropping over the full pulled

ACCORDING to calculations made bv
a scientific writer it requires large
amount of vegetable matter to form a
layer of coal, the estimate being that it
would take 100000 years to form a
coal-bed 100 feet thick. The United
States has an area of 100000 square
miles of coal fields, 100, 000,0 900 tons of
coal being mined in one year, or enough
to run ring around the earth at tho

The various Knights of Labor assemblies
held meetings yesterday afternoon to vote
on the question of obeying the order to re-
turn to work. At night another large
meeting was held in Germania Turner Hail.
at which Messrs. Carleton, Barry and 9TH
ers spoke advising acquiesence in the order,
and reports were made of the result of the
vote by assemblies during the afternoon
This was announced to be as follows: For
obeying, 365 votes; against obeying, LII
votes.
A motion was made to obey this order
and to return to work under protest This
was carried and the meeting adjourned.
The most serious questions present them
selves in connection with the return of the
strikers to work. Will they be taken back
Internationally? Will all be taken back?
Will the present employees be retained or
sent awaya Is it possible for the old and
the new to work alongside each other? What
assurance is there that the strike will not
be ordered on again in the near future
and all the trouble experienced over
again? What means of preventing trouble
shall be employed and for how long? Sew
eral of the packers were questioned regard
ing these points. All agreed that the trou-
BILE is by no means over. Some favor the
idea of compelling all who are taken back
to sign a contract to work at given wages,
to give two weeks notice of intention to
quit work, and to allow weeks wages to
be retained by the employer to be for
feited if the contract is not strictly OBJ
served. All the new men will be retained
though it is the opinion of several that
not many of them will care to remain
and be subject to the treatment they
are sure to receive at the hands
of the strikers
The strike has cost both sides large
amount of money. When the men first
went out they numbered 1S,500.. Three
thousand, however, returned leaving 10
500 outside. The number out averaged in
wages S2.75 day, which makes for the ten
days of idleness $425, 900 that are lost, while
tits supposed the packers in their prepare
lions of protection and actual loss are out
four times that sum.

In his recent address on industrial

after the publication in the newspa-

are longer because the sun rises earlier
