HINTS FOR THE FAIR SEX.

Summer Fashions for Womankind
in BOudoir and Salon-NoveIties
in Hats and ParasoIs-The Fa-
vorite Flowers.
The wise woman who wants to keep
her face looking well during the sum-
mer will be the one who will carry out
of the city sundry little bottles, the glass
corks of which will preserve whatever
is inside them. One should have ben
zoln-this is to be used when the face is
flushed or sunburnt. A few drops of it
put in the basin of warm water in which
the face is to be bathed will cause it to
grow milky in appearance, anu the wa
ter itself will have delightfully."- soft
feeling, while the perfume is delight
fully aromatic. The benZoin cools the
skin, and in addition tends to keep it
smooth.
Another bottle must have ammonia.
Ii you are going to the country, water
as hard as the heart of the average man
may be given you in your bed room, and
only the grace contained in the spirited
liquid will make it suited to hands ac-
customed to the water of cities. An
other bottle should have in it some
witch hazel to be literally applied when
mosquitoes are especially pad, and more
particularly if they prey upon one
about the ankles in the daytime. The
best thing to do then is to pour plenty
of witch hazel upon your ankles, letting
the stockings absorb it thoroughly and
become perfumed with it, for if there is
anything a mosquito does dislike, and
from which he will flee, it is this power
full, if not agreeable odor. Then, of
course, you will take your own favorite
cream or milk for sunburn, and if YOU
are wise you will have some old linen
to dabble it OH your face with, so that
when the sun has treated you rudely
you may not irritate the already super
sensitive skin by rubbing it in.

The Great Fortunes of England.
New York Sun.
M. Varigny recently gave the French
vast amount of elaborate misinforma-
lion about the great fortunes of this
country, and now in the last number of
the same periodical he writes with SIM
liar inaccuracy of the great fortunes of
England.
NJ. Varigny takes as his text a remark
Of John Bright in a public speech in
1866, that $50 individuals own half of
the soil of England. and that ten or
dozen have the monopoly of the
land of Scotland. He also gives
French authority for saying that
ninety, of whom siXty-Seven are the
peerage. possess more than 10000 acres
each, ard seven more than 200 acres
each, the Duke of Sutherland standing
at the head of the list with over 1,000,-
900 acres. Out of about ~, 00O, 900 acres
In all, the peerage alone possess more
than 100000 acres, yielding SGS, $780,
goo annually, and in that sum are not
Included their London residences and
properties, of which the value is enOr-
nous, and in the case of many the in
come is princely. Of these great urban
properties M. Varigny names especially
the "Dukes of Westminster. of Norfolk
and of Bedford, the Marquis of Sails
bury and the Marquis of Camden and
the Counts of Somers, Cadogan, Craven
and Others" The rural property alone,
according to him, yields to sos proprie-
tors total revenue of sq0,0o0,000 or an
average of more than S94, 000 each.
After the Duke of Sutherland he puts
as the greatest of landed proprietors
the Duke of Buccleuch, the Marquis of
Breadalbane, Sir James Matheson, the

CHICAGO, July 16.-Powell Clyde, a
fourteen-year-old of Lake View, who
has read much flash literature and given
himself the romantic title of CLOUDY
Clyde, the King" has succeeded in
creating sensation. After playing the
bandit prince for some months Cloudy
Clyde" has fled to other scenes. Satur-
day two men standing at the corner of
Addison and North Clark streets heard
unearthly yells coming apparently out
of the ground. After quite search the
men discovered the entrance to an eX-
cavation under lumber yard office,
and OH crawling i'll found two boys tied
fast to post. Their arms We're tied
behind them. One of the boys was
gagged and the other had managed to
rid himself of the gag, and had given
vent to the screams which attracted at
tention. The older boy told the men
that the cave was the headquarters of
"Cloudy Clyde's'' gang. 1t was well
supplied with plumber. There were
empty pocketbOoks, towels, spoons,
pieces of crockery. a dinner pail or two.
some yellow covered novels and knife.
The two boys were taken to a police
station and questioned. They proved to
be the SONS of William Deichmann, and
had been missing from home for nearly
a month. Willie is twelve years old and
Henry ten. Willie was seen yesterday,
and told the story of his remarkable adj
ventures as member of CLOUDY
Clyde's' band. He said that he and his
brother were in North Clark street one
afternoon three weeks ago selling pa
pers when they met Powell Clyde and
another boy with whom they were ac-
luainted. They were invited to go over
and inspect the cave, and did so. Clyde
explained what good business he was
doing, and asked the boys to join. They
refused and wanted to go home, but
"Cloudy" said he would learn them how
this sort of thing was worked in the far

RAILROAD NOTES.

Big Travel Yesterday-First Freight
 Train over the New Asylum Street
 Bridge.
 The Consolidated trains were heavily laden with passengers and freight yesterday. Many college students were among the throng. The limited express due in this city from Boston via Springfield at 1:24 did not arrive until 1:50. So large a crowd was waiting it's ar- rival that President Clark decided to run the train to New York in two sections, the sec- ond leaving ten minutes after the first. President Clark personally superintended the running of all trains yesterday.
 Yesterday morning at 1913 the first regu- lar freight train passed over the new iron bridge at the Asylum street crossing in Hart ford. The train is what is called the "regu- lar extra" which leaves Hartford every morning for Harlem. It was made up yes- terday of engine No. 94, twenty-nine cars and a caboose. Thomas O'Neil, one of the oldesS engineers on the road, was at the throttle, and Conductor w. J. Wallace in charge. The train moved slowly, taking about three minutes to pass over the cross- ing. Two men were stationed on ladders leaning against the iron girders of the bridge to detect and measure any slight sagging. Hereafter all south bound freights, working trains or construction trains will run over the elevated track. In few days Superin- tendent Davidson expects to make a thro- rough test of the bridge by running two heavy engines over it. On Tuesday the first engine, with gravel cars attached, crossed the bridge. The engine was No. 55, the old Hartford" that Joe Green ran go long ago. It was in charge of Engineer Benjamin Thay- CT and Fireman Henry E. Cook, and Super intendent Davidson and his clerk, MT. Cur tis, were on board.

 Escapes Death at Long Wharf Cross.
 ing-H1s Arm Severed at Ghe Elbow.
 A serious accident occurred at the Long wharf railroad crossing about 12 o'clock last night. A man, who was in beastly intoxi- cated condition, was struck by one of the passing trains and knocked down npon the track. The engine barely escaped cutting cutting his body in two. He was fortunate, however, in being saved from this by the merest chance. As it was, his arm was thrown under the wheels of the engine and was immediately severed at the elbow. The portion remaining was terribly bruised and mangled.
 Word was given at the freight office by some one who happened to be passing and heard his groans The police station was notified and the ambulance immediately sent to the spot where the wounded man lay. He had tainted from loss of blood and remained in death-like stupor. He was taken to the hospital When this was reached he had re- covered from his fsinting spell, but was so stupefed by the effects of liquor that he could not uttsr word. It was deplorable sight to witness. He will probably lose the arm nearly up to the elbow. Prompt suIgi- cal attendance was probably the only thing that saved him from much more serious con sequences resulting from the ghastly wound and loss of blood.
 The unfortunate man was well dressed and seemed to appear above the pitiful condition in which he wasa found. All that could be learned when he was taken to the hospital was that he was stranger in the city. At first it was thought that he might have fallen from the Washington express, which was the train that ran over him, but this was obvi- ously an unfounded construction to put upon the case. He went to sleep while the surgeon was dressing his wounded arm and was so supplied by drink and exhaustion that his mind seemed incapable of comprehending his situation or whatever was said to him. No papers or letters were found in his posses sion that gave any clue to his identity. His wounds will probably not prove serious.
