Such a satiny face can't be
put on poor stuff. Notice how
heavy it is, how closely woven.
Not a thread of cotton in it
you might guess it by the
luster. There's body as well
as beauty there. The seams
II hold till the sewing gives.
Can't say that of all Rhad-
ames. Never before could say
it SO strongly of any for
81 so.

Disastrous Runavay.

About P. NJ. yesterday Hall, Luhrs &
Co.'s truck team became frightened and
started to run away on Second street, be-
tween I and ]. In turning they ran into
the fine gray truck team belonging to VIM.
Mclaughlin. The pole struck one of the
grays on the hip and ran in for ten or
twelve inches, making wound a man
could put his arm in. Both the grays were
knocked down, and for time it was
thought both were killed. After several
minutes the horses were got upon their
feet and taken home. The wounded horse
lost several gallons of blood, and it is
thought he is ruined. The cause of the
runaway was a newspaper blowing through
the street. which frightened one of the
Hall, Luhrs & Co.'S team.

Found Dead.

About 1o:15 last night two young men
Nat Christopher and Mat Johnson-in
passing Sixth and R, noticed a man lying
on his face beneath the trestlework. They
kicked his foot, and when he did not move
they discovered he was dead. The Coroner
was Immediately notified and took posses
sion of the remains. He is a man about 5
feet 10 inches in hight, will weigh about 200
pounds, was well dressed, wore a full
beard, his hair slightly tinged with gray
and apparently over so years of age From
letters found in his pocket it would seem
his name is John A. Carroll. One is ad-
dressed 10 him at 1410 H street, is from his
daughter, Mrs. Mary a. Floyd, and is
dated at The Dalles, Or One of his wrists
is broken, an eye injured, his nose bruised
and it is thought his neck is broken He,
no doubt, had fallen through the trestle.
The only valuable found upon his person
was a gold watch. One of his letters was
addressed care of Frank Carroll, 2129 ]
street. The Coroner will hold an inquest
this evening

Non folding japanese Fans

Non folding Japanese Fans
in quaint crescent, oval and
oblong shapes, are shown as a
novelty for this summer.
The color work is of a much
higher order than is usual in
such work, there being an en-
tire absence of strong con-
trasts and coarse designs.
Instead, the surfaces as a
usual thing have a silvery
sheen, with quiet designs of
birds and foliage. The han
dies are in three parts, fast
ened with silk cords and tas-
sells. Thirty-hve cents buys
almost any of the best de-
signs.
The most prominent nov

]. d. Tade, against the Board of Fire Com
missioners for damages occasioned during a
fire on | street, between Third and Fourth,
on August %, 1887. The parties threatened
to bring suit against the city. The City
Attorney says, in effect that the fremen
and policemen had right, by law, to tear
down any property to prevent the spread
of flames, and the owner cannot recover
damages from the city nor from the officer
whose duty it is to order the destruction of
houses under such circumstances. If,
however, they prove that the damage was
occasioned through negligence they
may recover He advises the Trustees W

Lazy Indians.

Mr.. Monnier, who has been explor-
ing the upper Amazon, has visited
near it's head-waters, 1875 miles from
the Pacific coast, a tribe of remark
ably lazy Indians, for whom even
gold has no attractions, though they
know it's value. He says they live in
indescribable poverty and squalor.
When he asked them why they did
not collect the gold, of which con-
siderable quantities may be found in
their country, they replied that it
would be far too much trouble. 1t is
rare indeed that savage people do
not open placer gold mines when
they have a chance. The gold regions
of Africa and India show many YES
tiges of ancient diggings, and far to-
ward the Zambesi, in inner Africa,
the women still wash the sands of
dried up river beds, preserving the
precious dust they find in quilts until
the next trader comes along.

Jersey Hawks and Owls.

Newark journal.
The United States ornithologist
has prepared for submission to con-
gross an interesting report on the
food material found in the
stomachs of hawks and owls. Many
of these birds were caught and the
post norton performed on them in
the state of New Jersey by DR.. A. K.
Fisher, assistant ornithologist.
Much difficulty was experienced by
the assistant, as in some instances a
hawks craw was found to contain
the remains of a meadow mouse, a
sparrow, a snake, a frog, a grass
hopper, an earthworm and snail.
The craw of a marsh hawk from Ber-
gen county, captured near the home
of the Honorable William Walter
Phelps, contained the remains of the
two meadow mice and a sparrow.
A sharp skinned hawk shot near
Maplewood, New Jersey, had just
feasted on swift orioIe, while red
shouldered hawk, taken in Gloucester
county, contained a fair-sized catfish.
The craw of short-eared owl from
Hackensack contained a robin and
two mice, and a barred owl from
Englewood has feasted on a frog and
a red-backed mouse. A screech owl
from Rive Vale, New Jersey, had
within it a sparrow, crawfish and q
large spider, and a great horned owl
from Burlington county was found
to have dined upon pigeon, beetle
and a small snake. Many of the
hawks and owls examined had preyed
upon poultry and game birds.

A Monument to Adam.

Atlanta Constitution
General Spinola's bill, providing
for the erection of a monument in
Brooklyn to perpetuate the memory
of certain revolutionary soldiers, has
excited heviolent opposition of Con-
gresham Kilgore, of Texas. Mr..
Kilgore even goes SO far as to threat
en- the introduction of a bill to erect
a monument to Adam in his Texas
district.
Congressman Kilgore is not so far
wrong, after all. The truth is, Adam
has been shamefully neglected. We
have raised monuments in honor of
host of smaller men, but the father
of the human race has been ignored.
Yet, in his day, Adam was a big
man. He was. an original man, es-
pecially in his ideas about clothes
and such matters. He was the
monarch of l]be surveyed, although
his surveying was conducted in a
very primitive fashion, because the
state of his finances made it possible
for him to supply himself with the
proper instruments for the business.
Still it should be recollected that
Adam was one of the old pioneers.
Whenever he saw anything that he
wanted, he simply reached out and
helped himself to it, method of bust
ness which has been utilized by many
of our most successful men down to
the present time.

Is the World Growing Redder.
st. Louis Globe Democrat.

st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
The problem with scientists is quite
open as to the cause of the red color
of the planet Mars. Astronomers, as
a rule, venture a guess that vegeta-
ton on that world is red instead of
green. This is not at all absurd as a
supposition. Our own planet must
have a decidedly red hue to observers
during the brief season ofautumn col
oring. But this is not all of it. Ill
foliage and all bark are rendered per.
ceptibly redder as winter approaches.
The young wood of trees is redder in
winter than in summer. Is our own
world not slowly but surely develop.
ing a roster hue? Some bushes are
deep crimson all winter, but green all
summer. 1t is evident that cold
weather requires the comparative
predominance of red. AS the world
grows colder is it not also growing
redder? Mars is known to have a
colder climate than our own, and has
probably gone farther in it's floral
adaptions to the cold.

He Stuck to his own Name.

Chicago Herald.
'The whole house roared and
roared again. There was no let-up
on this merriment, and amidst cat
calls and shrill whistling the curtain
had to go down." 1t was at the
theatrical agency on Clark street,
and the speaker was d young come
dian in search of an early engage
ment for the fall. "And what was
the cause of it all?' queried a BY
ISLANDER who had just dropped in.
"It was just like this" hesaid. "We
were making a tour of 'one-night
stands in Michigan. One of our
most successful plays was an adap-
tation of Deborah There is a
child's part in it. The little girl who
usually played it happened to be
sick when we got to Battle Creek, so
we had to get the only available SUBJ
stitute, small boy, to assume the
part. The little fellow was fresh
enough and not likely to be en-
barrassed by the crowd and lights.
Of course he was put in girls clothes,
and with his piping voice and small
featured face he made as good a lit
tie stage girl as one could want. He
had only few words to say, and
they were repeated to him over and
over again, until he knew them thor
oughly. The performance went off
all right until Deborah stood in
front of Joseph's house and was met
at the threshold by Joseph's little
girl. His child? All, must kiss the
dear little girll' exclaimed Deborah.
oh, it's you, poor woman? Father
is looking for you,' replies the child.
Deborah (imprinting u burning kiss
on the child's lips): And what is
thy name, my sweet child?' Here
the little pseudo girl, forgetting his
lesson, or bewildered by the unusual
situation, blurts out: Tommy o.
Houlihan, please ma am.' His faith
er keeping a particular saloon in
town, and being known to everybody
in the audience, a burst of laughter
broke loose such as I've seldom
heard in a theater. And that's why
the curtain finally had to go down."
