DRESSING BOYS.

Hints from q Mother on q Matter Usually
Found Difficult.
Demorest's Monthly.
Few mothers understand how to make
buys look picturesque and at the same
time dress them with ease and comfort.
Perhaps a'hintor two from one whose soul
has been racked with the sight Of button
less trousers, wrinkIed stockings and
gaping shirt waists, may prove of bene-
fl.
Being fond Of painting and artistic pur-
suits, longing for time to devote to con.
genial occupations, l chafed for months
over the precious moments wasted In
vain striving to induce buttons to remain
in their rightful position. 1 would leave
my boys dressed for the afternoon
clean, starched shirt waists, immaculate
stockings, sewed and buttoned all tight
and trim. My soul would contentedly
soar to higher things, when my peace
would be shattered by the sight OF dis
tressed little faces and shirt flaps ex-
posed.
"I only leaned over 8 little, and all the
buttons popped off," WAS usually the ex-
PLANTATION given.
endured this through two summers
then arose In desperation and reduced the
matter of boys clothing down to fine
art. In the list place, oh, weary mothers,
take of those unpicturesque, uncomfort-
able short-waisted shirts. Do not blame
your Tommie il he comes in al
the end of each day with q but.
tonless waistband. 1t is impossible to
hold up the little trousers tightly and at
the same time have comfort in movement.
Something must give way, and naturally
the buttons ay.
Dress your boys Alright, and summer
garments once put In order will give the
mother no more trouble till the time
comes for those for the autumn to be
looked to. In place Of the short-waisted
shirts make, or have made, loose blouses,
star or sailor waists, either of the same
material or of thin flannel. When
the weather is cool or damp haye q
white or navy blue flannel; when warn,
percsls or cambria. They should be
made large, to allow for ehrinkage,. and,
unless your boy grows like morning
glory, they ought to last through two
summers nicely. The collars and q CUTS
can be made OF turkey red or navy blue,
cambria. These plain colors will keep
clean much longer and look more dressY
than light colors.
Now comes the point Of vantage. The
short-sleeved gauze flannel and the stock
ings-with black elastics above the knees
are first donned; and have, either on
trousers or kits, strong buttons sewed
for suspenders. These, being elastic,
will give whenever movement demands

tells me thst the longest welded life cut

tirely justified in the course which he
pursued. Men familiar with the out

this and other states agree that the bill
for national divorce law, now pending
in Congress, should be quickly passed.

THE INTERSTATE DRILL.

do Themselves Justics.
The Montgo merry True Blues Handicapped
By the Mud-The Prizes to be
Awarded To Day.
EVERYTHING SOAKED.

EVERYTHING SOAKED.
Special to the Gazette.
AUSTIN, Tex, May ia terrific rain
fell this morning, flooding the drill
grounds and almost turning Camp Ross
into lake. During the forenoon visitors
were very scarce, but in the afternoon q
considerable crowd assembled upon the
grand stands to see the last of the COM
petitive drills-the drilling of the four
troops Of cavalry and the grand dress
parade.
The Austin Greys first took the field to
drill for the Interstate prize. Some Of
their work was excellent, the firing by
company being the best executed upon
the ground. AS whole, however, their
drill WAS only fair, and they will not stand
among the winners.
MONTGOMERY TRUE BLUES.
At 1 O'Clock precisely the Montgomery
True Blues marched on the field aud were
greeted with loud and continued cheer
ing. The smooth part of the drill ground
is low ana was therefore full of water.
Ia consequence they were obliged to re-
pair to the higher and rougher part of the
field. Even there 1t WAS very muddy, and
their drilling was therefore not up to that
standard of excellence which the COM
psny's friends expected Of them. II wss
however. very good, some of their ms
neuvres being simply superb. They exc
cuted the manual well, both with snd
without numbers. Their stacking of arms
with bayonets WAS good, without only
fair. Lying down and rising was fine,
firing lying down not good. Fixing and
unfixing bsyonets was excellent; firing
right and left oblique good. The march
ings were for the most part good. 1t is
not thought, however. that the Blues will
get either first or second place, as both
the Houston Light Guard and the Bel
knap Rifles are supposed to be ahead of
them.
SWEEPING CHARGE.
At O'Clock four troops of the Third
cavalry, commanded by Colonel Young,
gave an exhibition drill. They executed
number of manouVres and made 8
sweeping charge across the field, yelling
like Indians, feature much enjoyed by
the spectators.
The dress parade took place in the rain,
and very few persons stayed to see it.
GOT THE BLUES.
The directors and stockholders of the
Drill Association are blue tonight. They
expected heavy receipts to-day and to-
morrow to lift them above danger Of loss,
and their expectations have met with dis
appointment.
Many persons are leaving tonight, and
there will be few to come to take their
pisces.
Tomorrow the prizes will be awarded,
and the big Austin drill will pass into
history.

sewing, and still anxious to keep her
boys neatly dressed, looked shocked when
l told her to put suspenders on her baby
boy in kits, but on trying my plan she
found it worked wonderfully well, and
her thanks were many for the rest thus
gsinei.
The waist must, of course, go over the
suspenders. II order to do this it should
be made larger at the bottom than under
the arms, and gathering tape drawn in
hem at the lower edge, thus forming q
blouse. Hsve this tape the size Of the
waist, and, instead OF tying, secure 1t at
each end, and, with q stout button and
button hole, your troubles, 80 far as
sewing on buttons are con-
cerned, are at an end. The shirts must
be cut quite long WASTED, and are very
easily ironed and exceedingly cool and
comfortable for the wesrer, besides hav-
ing picturesque look, which the old
fashioned waists certainly lack.
The necktie should harmonic in color
with the waist aud be tied sailor
fashion, with fowiug ends. So
you will see with the exception of
enough buttons to hold the walls:
together In front, the dress is reduced to
simplicity itself, and my boy of six years
dresses himself VITA as much ease as the
boy OF ten, and always looks in good
order.
The six-year-old boy, with navy blue
suit made in this way, can have q surah
silk sash OF red or blue around his waist,
tied in loops on one nip. This
1 have named-for the benefit
Of my boy, who objected to the
sack-"The Cowboy Suit" and the sssh
and name fill the souls of his little mates
with envy. With wide-brimmed blue hat
on the back or his head, his hair cut
eauare in front and rather lorg in the
back, and q pretty necktie with flowing
ends, boy dressed in this manner looks
like picture, and Still there is nothing to
call for the aid Of nurse or mamma.
The little shoes should always DE the
tied ones. They keep their shape better,
aud instead Of an expenditure Of time and
temper In sewing On shoe-buttons, there
will be needed but the penny for new
shoestring. For dress, have plenty of
silk stockings, and low shoes with
buckles.
With their own little blacking-kit in the
corner of the bath room, their own little
hook for clothes, and q drawer apiece for
shirt-wsists and stockings, and little pa-
tlent training from mama in the matter of
hanging up and putting away, there Is no
reason why much II shy care, as far as
clothing is concerned, should fall on her
already cverhurdened shoulders.

UNCLE SANS WAR SHIPS.
Launch OF the Yorktown and the Dyna-
mite Cruiser.

PHILADELPHIA, April rs.
Tho two trains of Pullman cars from
Washington, bearing Secretary Whitney
members OF Congress, representatives OF
foreign governments and others, invited by
the secretary of the navy 10 witness the
launching OF the Yorktown and the unnamed
dynamite cruiser, arrived at one o'clock this
afternoon. The distinguished party were at
once taken on board the steamer Columbia
where IA collation. was served, and which,
meanwhile, proceeded up the river to
Cramps shipyard. The entire affair of
launching the vessels was under the direction
OF Secretary Whitney, although the builders,
Messrs. Cramp, put forth every possible eff
fort IN making it successful. All the ar
rangements were made yesterday, and in
greasing the ways over 1000 pounds of tai
low were used. The Yorktown was launched
at 3.O6 Z. NJ, and was christened by Miss
Eleanor Brecklnbridge, daughter of Con-
gresham Breckinbridge OF Kentucky.
The dynamite cruiser followed OFT the ways
at } 10, being christened by Miss Nellie
Cameron, daughter of Senator Don Cameron
The launches were unusually successful.
The U. 5. 5. Despatch, which lay out in
the river, ired saiutes AS the vessels moved
OH into The stream, amid the screeching of
ringing of bells and the cheers of
the multitude OF spectators.
The shipyards both before and during the
were thrown open to the public,
and the 400 employees were given holiday
The event attracted more people and was
of greater moment than anything
of It's nature tor many years.

SHOT HIMSELF.
4 Presbyterian Clergyman Commits Sui
eide.
Financial Troubles Greater than the Re-
ligious Faith Of Popular Devine.

NEW YORK, April 20.
Rev. Edgar L. Hermance, last pastor o,
the Presbyterian church on Broadway, in the
village of White Plains, shot himself in the
pulpit of the church at $50 z. NJ. TODAY,
and died soon after.
His resignation was asked for some time
ago in consequence of dissatisfaction arising
between himself and his flock over his sal
AIRY. He made repeated demands for al in-
crease, all of which were ignored. He was
for sixteen years pastor of one of the richest
congregations in that section.
1t reported that he was largely interested
In the dry goods trade and that, about three
years ago, he lost in the neighborhood of
$4,000.
He owned and resided in one of the most
palatial residences on Broadway. His wife
is the daughter of ex-President Woolsey of
Yale College. Hermanee's family stood
very high in the social circles Of White
Plains.
Shortly before he shot himself he was sit
ting within the chancel conversing with John
Biakeiy, the sexton, and appeared perfectly
rational.
The sexton left him to get pitcher of water
and had hardly closed the door when he was
startled by the report of pistol shot Rush
ing back he found the pastor stretched upon
the floor of the pulpit, bleeding profusey
fr m a bullet hole in the right temple Be
side him lay 32 -calibre revolver. The sex
ton hurriedly summoned aid and the uncon-
scious pastor was borne to his home, three
blocks distant. Doctors were Immediately
but could do little for him. At
The time of the shooting Mrs. Hermance was
eachins Sunday school class in the new
chapel within few feet of her husband.

matter. That which supposed was told as
joke is being used all over the country

misled by the report TO correct it.
