Morning Dew for Her Complexion.

Morning Dew for Her Complexion.
A young woman who claims Augusta
as her home, and who officiated as maid
to New York belle who spent last sum-
mer at Bar Harbor, has just cleared up
what was regarded, even at that resort,
used as it is to queer freaks, as mysterious
actions. Every morning my lady's maid
was seen to leave the hotel between 5 and
6, and spread on the grass something that
looked very like fine white handker-
chief Then, having waited q few mo-
ments, she would gather up the article and
return to her mistress chamber. She
now explains that it was part of her du-
ties to wet lace mouchoir-as the lady
called it-with the early dew Of morning
and then lay it over the face of the New
York belle, who had an idea that it soft
ened and added beauty and freshness to
her complexion. Privately, the maid ad-
mitted--not expecting to be engaged by
the same dansel another season-that the
young lady's ruse was a failure, as her
complexion always looked moist and
rather shiny, instead of having the clear
tint she hoped for. That the first snow
of winter is commonly supposed to remove
freckles is an old conceit, but that the
morning dew enhances the complexion Of
city bellies is indeed new ''fad. Lewis

Railway Enterprise In Turkey.

An important railway enterprise is an
nounced in Turkey, a syndicate of British
inanciers having received from the gov
eminent the right to construct grand
trunk line to traverse the central plateau
of Asia Minor and connect Constantinople
with Bagdad, covering a distance of l $3.50
miles. 1t is said that for years past this
undertaking has been the goal Of rival
spectators. English, French, German and
American companies have all sought to
obtain the franchise. The line to Ade-
Bazaar from IsInid Is to be commenced
forthwith and finished in two years. In
four years the line is to be finished to An
CORA, and eight years after to Bagdad. It
is estimated to cost some $50, 900, 000.-

LOVE is LORD OF DEATH.

'Tis true; shall love thee forever, know, ~.
While suns shall rise or tides shall flow,
And when on my heart lies deaths hand cold,
I shall love thee then as in days of old.
/ shall look for the light of thy dark blue eyes,
When DER the sea heavens glories rise,
For one glance from those eyes will be to LIE
The glory of immortality.
Through the streets Of that city Of FURNISHED
god
i shall look for my love of the days OF old
/ shall list for her voice mid the angels strain.
Without her cen heaven were eternal pain.
All, love- dost thou know how fully thy name
Is woven with every dream of fame
have dreamed, so that time nor eternity
Holds faith or love that does not mean thee

THE TYPICAL COON DOG

A good coon dog is born, not made. He is
the Scotchman, or Yankee, of the canine
species-one trait he must possess above all
others, he must be canny. The Devils Hop
Yard raises the best coon dogs. There ara
probably dozen dogs, owned by farmers in
its region about the yard, that cannot be
bought for $50, and for one OF two of the
number 500 bill would appeal in vain for
acceptance by way of exchange. Yet two of
them are homely, shaggy looking fellows
about the farm, with brown coats and mild
brown eyes, and another is apparently a
cross between a foxhound and shepherd
dog. In the head of each, just above the
eyes, is a bump that sticks ont like knob On
an oak root; that bunch is supposed to con-
tain the combination that is set for coons,
without which they would not be worth $50
and 500 apiece.
The hunters of the hop yard have done lit
tie else since the first day of October but stir
up the coons. There is little money in hunt
ing them for their fur or their meat, but it is
customary each fall for hunters to drive out
to the yard from Norwich, New London,
Middletown, and from Moodus and the Had
dams on the Connecticut river for night Of
coon hunting, and the local hunters act as
quits In tALS way lAt lAl1OlS up-S are
worth their price to their masters. There is
something wrong with the night or with the
hunters if one OF these parties returns at day
light with less than from four TO ten coonS
The hunters so home with their load Of
game, the youngest and latest animal is
carefully dressed by caterer and roasted,
and at night the party and their friends have
q coon supper. which they wash down with
mugs of beer, hard cider and sometimes
punch. Epicures rarely express q similsr
opinion about the favor of roast coon; some
think it resembles that of roast pig, others
detect likeness TO that q mutton, still
others say that it savors of bears meat, and
few profess 10 find it q combination Of
mutton, bear and pig favors Many other
men who have made desperate efforts to eat
a coon supper confess that they would rather
try woodchuck or black cat next time

A Good Organization,

Among the several very useful organi.
cations of the city the Irish Benevolent
society ranks deservedly high for its ben,
evolent and charitable features. Its
membership is large and it is composed Of
the leading Irish citizens of the commu
nifty. 1t is on a very sound financial
footing, but instead of boarding up money
it has spent 1t literally in relieving dis
tress among the families of unfortunate
members. Several cases of this sort have
recently come to our attention which com
pletely justify the motto of charity and
benevolence'' which the society has adopt
ed. Many of its members are enthusias.
tic workers in the good cause, and as it is
now organized the society is a potent
factor for good in the community.

Capt J. T. Patrick, Commissioner of
Immigration for North Carolina, has
given notice to our people that he has
arranged with the publishers of the
Home-Seeker's Guide to get out a special
edition of their magazine to be devoted
to North Carolina. This edition will be
filed with each information in regard to
North Carolina towns as will be best
calculated TO bring visitors from the
North to North Carolina for the winter
This is probably the best opportunity
AsheYille has ever had for a paving
advertisement at very small cost. Capt.
Patrick has obtained a list of all the
visitors who spent last winter in Florida,
and he will mail co3y of this magazine
to each one as soon as it is published. If
Asheyille's advantages as a winter resort
are well written up the information will
go directly into the hands of those who
will be most interested and who of all
men will be most likely to be influenced
by it. Florida will of course have to be
given up as winter resort, at least for
the present, and the people of the North
must have milder climate. They can
not go to Florida. They must go some
whore.
Gan. Grrely in Sclibner's for November

will reap large reward without having
to wait long for it.

North carolinians in the Depart

hSnISs
The Washington correspondent
of the Durham Tobacco Plant gives
the following interesting bit of con-
lecture, some of which might be
called prophecy. He says:
"Fhe democrats are beginning to
look more serene, especially those
who got in under the Civil Service
rules. The others, those who were
put in through political influence,
are confident they will be promtly
dismissed. The Chiefs of Divisions
will go at once. These from North
Carolina, who got in through roliti-
cal influence, are Capt. Ed. Jones,
OF Lenolr; Mr.. Jas. Madison Leach,
OF Lexington; Mr.. Geo. McCorkle,' of
Newton; Capt. John Hussey of
Greensboro. These are all in the
Treasury Department. A number
of the Civil ervice clerks may re-
main, but that is very uncertain. A
big broom, typical of wish to
sweep the last democrat out has
beeen nailed up over the entrance of
the republican committee head.
quarters. A great pressure will be
brought to bear on Harrison, un-
doubtedly. Two things, however,
may give these c,zrks some hope,
VIZ: Harris..a. as Senator, voted
for the Civil Service, law, and
the republican national platform is
pledged to Civil Service Reform.
