New Style in Buttons.


There is nothing more noticeable than
the wonderful change in the buttons
that women wear that has taken place in
two years. Perhaps I notice it more on
account of being in the business, but it
is so radical that any one would perceive
it if he had his attention called to it.
Formerly the buttons were fancy and
large; now they are small, plain and
cheap. When merchants can sell manu-
factured buttons for three cents dozen
it reduces the profits of the manufacturer.
Style has de :ided that buttons shall be
small and plain. In consequence it is
very seldom that woman pays more
than twenty cents dozen for the but
tons she uses on her dress, and the ma
iority use FIVE and ten cent buttons. But
this style will not last long, it will get
around to the old price where it was
profitable to manufacture buttons. Two
years ago the style was to wear novel
ties, and the buttons used on dresses
never cost less than fifty cents a dozen.
The size ofthe buttons began to increase,
and it was not uncommon to see buttons
two inches square on cloaks. Many
ladies paid as high as So apiece for but.
tons. They were made in fancy shapes,
and there are few ladies who have not
pretty collections in their scrap bags.
They will be useful some day, for the
fash on in buttons is always changing.
Trade fuctuates accordingly. With i'm
proved machinery it is now easy to make
a cheap plain button. Bone is the prin-
cipal material for these buttons, and
vegetable ivory is also used, as we'll as
composition.- Graphic.

A Bit Of Revenge.

A story comes from Brewton, Ala,
which may be read with interest and
profit. A gentleman seeking resi-
dence, found one just suited to his taste
in all but the inside ornamentation of
the house, but being gentleman Of
means as we'll as taste he accepted the
house and turned it over to the uphol-
sterer for renovation. The most elabo-
rate inside decorations were soon made
by the skillful painters, the walls papered
in the highest style of art, and in perfect
unison with the furnishings. The paper
ing was subject of pleasant congratu-
lations from the gentleman's guests, and
the landlord, hearing of the improve.
mcnts, concluded it would be good
time to exact crack rent" He had
several offers to rent the house, so he
pulled down on the tenant for a big rise
OF monev. The tenant could not stand
that. He concluded to leave, but kick
as he left. He decided revenge-deep,
solid and lasting. So a happy thought
struck him. 1t was dark and villain
Gus thought, but perhaps justitiable
under the circumstances.
He hied him again to the wallpaper
ing man, and with grin on his counte-
nance looked over the samples of paper,
and finding one, horror in bad figures
of black and mud color, contracted for
it to be put up, so as to completely hide
the beautiful blue and gold paper of the
first edition. The papering was scarcely
completed before the landlord dropped
in to sec whether the tenant had not
relented little. He was shown into
the parlor. Hardly had he touched the
soft cushions of the chair than he sprang
to his feet, and with the yell of a
Comanche fed the house. He had seen
the paper on the wall. 1t was perfect
nightmare, Mobile Register.

dark gray, and matrons, especially, ap-
peared in public in dark clothes, dis.
heveled hair and without ornaments. In
the autumn respectable ladies who were
at all religious dressed themselves upon
certain day in robes of "murrey," OF
dead-leaf color, in which they made ex-
platory sacrifices, the clothing being af-
terward scrupulously destroyed, the idea
being that any evil which impended upon
the wearer might pass into her tunic and
thus be carried off in flame. This ex-
piation, if fully carried out, was most
comfortably supposed to be sufficient for
a whole year of peccadiloes. .-Goiey's.

Work for Women.

The work of house decoration now
gives employment to many women in
New York, writes Jenny June, but the
field does not begin to be covered. The
majority follow too much the "Kensing.
ton" school, instead of taking the
natural and admirable principles VIII 'ch
underlie this school as basis, and
diverging from it into ideas suggested
not only by the splendid flora aud
characteristics of the country, but also
by the difference in means and resources.
There are plenty of people here who
would like to impart some appearance of
modern finish to their rooms and dwell
ings, but they cannot think of doing it,
because to employ decorative 'iartist'
would mean more than the house per-
haps cost to build. Women are quite as
capable of staining floors, papering
walls, drapiag a corner or window, as
men, and, in fact, have succeeded so well
as to show the possession of a special
faculty of this kind; but they should
adapt themselves to various needs and
purses. They should be as ready to make
covers and curtains of cheap chintz as
rich plush, and do it as we'll. and they
should adapt pretty mantei draperies and
window finish to the poor as we'll as the
rich.

MARK sMIrH.s cosvENrIoN.

A novel departure from the custom sry routine of the late Democratic con- yention throughout the country was witnessed in this city yesterday, in the failure of the Territorial convention to endorse the national Democratic sd- mipistrstion. Judging from the con- ventions, being held throughout the country, the administration at Wash ington is particularly desirous of secur- ing the endorsements of Slate and Ter ritorisl conventions, and the Democrats throughout the country have catered liberslly to this desire of Cleveland, un- til the Arizona Territorial convention has seen 1t to emphsticslly put its foot on an endorsement of Clevelsnd's ed. ministrstion.
 There must be some strong reason that sctusted the Democracy in thu mstter, and it can only be inferred that Mark Smith, Arirons's Democratic Delegate, is st loggerhesds with the sd ministrstion. It was 8 demonstrated fact yesterday thst Mark Smith held th, strings that manipulated every act o the convention, in fact the convention was absolutely his own, and completel, under his control. Now, why did harl Smiths convention refuse Co commend the administration of Cleveland? Sim ply because Mark Smith did DO, 8 desire, and his convention poses befor the country in the origlnAl light c kiekers sgsinst the national admins trstion.

IH the recent convention the demo- eracy of Pims County was downed, not. ss said by more than one visiting delegate. through any i'll will to the county which
 they recognized ss one of the foremost and most deserving in the Territory, but
 Co show the Hughes-Bola clique that they hsd no use for such 6 msde-up. This was patent in every move made or motion put in the Convention. Yuma demanded the admission of three dele gates, Pims County through her delegate on the committee on credentials, oppos- ed it but they were admitted. The lap pointment of the committee on creden- tisls by the chair 2was opposed by the Pima delegation, but he appointed fl, Pims's delegate in the committeeion res olutions opposed the resolution sndors-
 ing Zulick's administration, but the resolution was reported nevertheless. Pims's delegate on the credential committee opposed the admission of Charles NJ, Strauss on proxies held from Moisve county, but he was admitted Opposition from the same source was made to the admission of H. T. Andrews on 8 proxy. because be was known to be friend of Governor Zaliok, but he was courteously invited to seat. The cleo tion of gentleman with a similar lean ing to the temporary and permanent ehsirmsnship WAS directly sntsgonistic to the wishes of the Pima delegation sl- though they made the preiense of vot- ing for him. The inability of the Hughes faction to either down Smith or chirp on their Home Rule hobby was evident from the moment Pete Bolsn hesitated and failed to read the finish ing paragraph of his famous call, On the other hand Cochise turned jack every time she shuffed the cards. She was given the chsirmsnship of the con- yention-both temporary and permanent the Congressional delegate, the joint councilman for the southern district and the seeretsryship of the Territorial Central Committee.

zULIcK,s CONVENTION.

WITH all the snti-Zuliok slush thai has been given to the country through the organ of little coteris of ofhce-seek- ing democrats of Pima County, the dem- ocrscy of the Territory is more largely in favor of Zulick today than it was siI months or even two months ago. This wss plainly evidenced by the vote on the resolution endorsing his sdminissrstion in the Democratic convention of Mon dsy last. The vote in detail was ss here given. In favor of the resolution Apache, Graham, Yuma, Msrioops and Mohsve cast the full strength of theu delegs- tions. In addition to this the vote wss augmented by 8 from Ysvspsi, and two from Pinal, making a full total of Sl votes. Against the endorsement Oo- chise, Pima and Gils alone cast their full strength, but which together with y from Ysvspsi and from Pinal gave 6 full total of S4 votes, thus making a majority of in favor of tsbl- ing the resolution. Counting Ysvspsi county ss being solidly snh-Zuliek- which it was not ss nsy be seen by the foregoiug-this gave them but 4 eoun- ties, while Zulick not only had solid counties in his favor but halved the Pi- nal delegation which voted and z In addition to this it must be remembered that { members of the Oochise county delegation were pronounced Zulict men but the unit rule being enforced they were obliged to submit Co the will of the majority. tr..h~- ID one common resolution an endorse ment of the Territorial and National ad- ministrstlons. snd any attempt made to seggregste the two was overwhelmingly defeated. Chairman BlInn rightly re- fused to entertain 6 seggregstive mo- tion made by 6 Pima county delegate and on sn appeal, taken by 8 rising vote, the chair was sustained by 6 count of Soto 15. The resolution was then tabled by 8 vote of 31 to 34. The Territorial snd National administrations, Zulick and Cleveland shared like fate. In the eyes of the Democratic Territorial Convention of Arizona neithsr were worthy of recognition, and neither were recognized. In sll this broad Union there is not 8 like psrslell. 4 Territo- rial Convention refusing to endorse the administration of its own party was never before heard of and probably nsy- CT will be again, bat it was Zulick victory all the same. The position of the unterrified in AriEons ss demon strsted by the convention is not enyis- ble. At disoord with themselves and st enmity with the offioe dispensing power, the latter sfiction will break the back of any AriEons democrat, if nothing in the world else will.
