Says a correspondent of the New
York Sun, writing from Chicago: 1t
will, l think, surprise the public to
learn that up to week ago there was
nearly SO policemen still on the hos
pital list from injuries received at the
awful slaughter occasioned by the an :
archists' bomb during the Haymarke t
riot. These men have now been Or
dered on duty as door tenders, bridge
watchers and drivers of patrol wagons,
while so able-bOdied men have been
ordered as re-enforcements into the
districts where anarcbism is rampant.
Take it all in all, the anarchist ques-
ton in Chicago is a rather dense and
dangerous sort of muddle, and it is
not to be wondered at that the people
are alarmed.

e0That Your JOY May be Full"

SO scant in most people, instead of be-

There is no influence in the family that

Although the fashion plates do moi
show it very clearly, yet there are two
reforms slowly working. and one is IN
the diminution Of the absurd dimensions
Of the hustle. and the other is in the
shortening Of the waists OF dresses to a

long. slim waists has had its day. and the
pretty short WASTED directoire styles are
being worn very much. particularly for
young ladies' home costumes. The waist
IS short and loose, and the skirt hangs in
long, loose folds, and on a graceful figure

look well in them the Wearer should be
slow Of movement.
