BLONDES DISAPPEARING.
Golden-H aired Beauties Becoming
ConsDicuous by Absence.

Golden-H aired Beauties Becoming
Conspicuous by Absence.
In the course of a fifteen minutes
walk on Broadway the other day New
York reporter counted 200 women,
young and old, with hair ranging from
medium brown to the darker shades
which all but artists call black. Only
thirteen women passed who were of
the pronounced blonde order. These
were of the reddish classes and the hair
of two had apparently been bleached.
AT the theater the san e evening, of the
fifty women within easy range. six had
far skins, blue eyes and light hair.
They sat surrounded by bevy of dark
women, who gave its prevailing tone to
the complexion of the house. Interest
III the result observed led next morning
to public school. One class of eighty
girls had eight blondes to Seventy-two
average browns and brunetteS. Another
OF siXty-five girls had sixteen fair
haired pupils to fifty standard brown
heads and darker. In the third class the
proportions were seven light to fifty
muddy and dark. The statement may
be haZarded that not above s or 10 per
cent Of the New York women are
blondes. In the big dry goods stores
one is waited on by salesgirl with
brown bangs and brown, black, hazel
or gray eyes. There is a clerk in one
establishment who is celebrated for her
wonderful babyish gold hair, the type
commanding by its rarity instant atten-
ton.
Go anywhere where pretty girls con-
gate and you will meet tall. striking
looking figures with dark hair and big,
dark eyes. Is the blonde type disap-
pearing, and if so. why? Among men
the proportion of blondes seems trifle
larger than in women. In both sexes,
however, in spite of the strong infusion
of Teutonic blood, the dark complexion
predominates. If you don't believe it,
make some personal observations when
you go into public place and see.

Two souls no power may sever,

DEAR June GIRLS.
Clara Belle Finds Them
AWfully Nice in New
Clothes.
A Definition for Girls, and
the Latest Novelty in
Dresses.
Hot Weather Garments Made
to Keep the Heat
Out.
A Plea for the Neglected
Children of Gay
Society.

The first crop of June girls is very at
tractive. A friend of mine, being a
photo-maniac, rugged up his instantane-
Gus camera in Fifth avenue window
and caught several specimens. Here is
one. She is awfully nice, don't you
think? Her black velvet bodice, with
its delicate frontage of white muslin
her hat, with its brim high above her
pretty face-her plant. graceful figure
altogether she is admirable.
THE PROMENADE
IS suddenly full of summer exhibits of
fashion. A few ideas are worth item
iZing. Many gowns have fancy linen
vests, with just fold or box plat down
the center. A stylish dress has broad
perpendicular bands of white braid
around the petticoat, the blue serge
draped over this. On the bodice the
same braid is carried down the center
OF the front, with revers turning from
1t. the buttons employed showing a
monogram. Many women who have
graceful figures will wear, upon the
promenade and for visiting, stylish
toilets with disappointed waists, to
which are applied full skirts laid in fiat
plaitS from front to back, the plaits over
the slight tOurnnre Increasing in width
to give additional fullness. There are
seen Oh the streets dresses of fawn,
gray, or brown wool, with the entire
skirt laid In plaitS from belt to foot. In
some OF these skirts the plaits are
wide behind and narrower in front.
In others they are alike all around. and
only about inch wide. These skirts are
entirely without drapery. and are only
very slightly extended in the back.
Here, i'll second of the photographs
mentioned, are two girls i'll rather galluS
toilets. They are opponents OF rather
prevalent type. however. and so let
them pass. They are called "chippies"
which being Interpreted from slang
into English means that they are be-
tween twelve and sixteen years of age.
In the matter of fashions, things origi-
nate III Fifth avenue and thence find
their way slowly to the Bowery, but in
the matter OF slang the reverse is the
method. Terms current in the BOwery
for year or SO are then carried. in
some manner or other, to Fifth avenue,
where they become a part of the Ian
guage of fashionable young folks. That
Is the fact as to the quoted word
''CHIPPIE."
1t is new this season on Murray hill.
and is generally applied to girls who
are just extending their skirts from the
tops OF their CATERS to the S0leS thereof.
Every adult woman knows that the oft
mentioned pride of a boy in his first
trousers is nothing, by comparison, with
that OF girl in her first long skirt.

A Newport clergyman tells this of a
recent marriage which he performed:
The parties were foreign, both good
looking, well dressed and appearing.
The groom presented his license, and
this being correct in all particulars the
clergyman began to read the service.
The groom was befittingly solemn for
the occasion, but on the face of the bride
was smile, which broke into laughter
before the ceremony was half COM
pleted. The clergyman stopped and
looked rather severe. The groom, too,
was troubled, and saw that some eX-
PLANTATION was necessary. He looked

wide cotton cloth and cut into three
strips of three yards each. Sew these
strips together securely by overlapping,
and you will then have a piece three
yards square. Make solution of
twelve ounces of lime and five ounces
of alum in three gallons of water
and soak the cotton in it for day.
Rinse it in warm rain water and stretch
in the sun to dry. 1t will then be water
proof.
Having reached your camping out
place, cut two poles eight feet long,
each with fork on one end. Sink the
other ends in the ground about a foot
and beat the earth well down to keep
them in place. These polls should be
about eight feet apart. Now cut an
other poll about nine feet long and put
it on top of the other two, resting in the
forks. Cut two more poles ten feet
long for the sides of your frame, resting
one end of each pole on the cross pole
and the other end on the ground.
Stretch the canvas over the frame and
tack it to the poles. You can make the
sides of your tent weatherproof with
boughS of cedar and other trees.
This is the simplest and least expen-
Sive tent you can have, and it will an
swer your purpose fully. The interior
of the tent, however, would be little
more rOOmy and comfortable if you
would put up second frame in the rear
similar to that in the front, say two feet
high, and stretch the canvas over that
and thence to the ground.
Select sloping ground to put your tent
on, so that if it rains the water will
readily run off; and also dig little
ditch around the tent with an outlet
leading down the incline. AS the front
of the tent will be open-unlesS you
provide enough canvas to close it-you
had better place it with the front tow
ards the north or northwest. for storms,
if you have any, will probably come
from the south or southwest.
The rude hut described for it is little
else-will no doubt seem a f1imsy
shelter to those who have never occu-
pied one. but for perfect rest and the
soundest of sound sleeping you will
find it superior to the best room in your
city house.

The natural gas trust, a lesser con-

its annual meeting in the Standard oil
building, New York, on May 81, and
elected Benjamin Brewster ahd j. D.

secretary, when asked the nature of
this natural gas trust, said that it was a
non-active trust, which merely exer-

DIR. Hoyt was graduate of Dartmouth
college, and early distinguished himself as
an accurate scholar and forcible speaker,
giving promise of great fulfllment in the
high calling ne chose for his life work. He
was gifted with rare qualities of mind and
heart. Of keen intellect, of unfinching
courage, and withal, genial and sympa-
thetic nature, he commanded the admira-
ton OF all who knew him well. He was
sometimes misunderstood, as are all brave
souls, and was accused by some of his CO
workers in the church, al times, of taking
too much ease, but what so appeared to
others were stops by the hard pathway of
life for the rest which nature demanded.
Much of the time he labored almost with
out scrip" content with the bare necessl-
ties of life. Always ready in debate, his
voice was often heard with interest in our
early diocesan councils. His heart went
out in such large measure to poor suffer
ing humanity, that he wholly forgot self,
and often shared with the destitute bis
humble board and the shelter of his home.
The sorrowing and oppressed never left

known to all as Father Hoyt," we could
always go to him for counsel and comfort,
and, parting from him, receive fathers
benedicton. He regarded not the praise
of men, but acted up to what he believed
to be the will of God. In every relation
of life, as priest, husband, father and
friend, he will be greatly mourned.
He lived to ripe aid age, with all his
"honors thick upon him" and in the full
vigor of his powers, until within few
weeks of his passing away. What greater
eulogy can we speak for him than this?
He is gathered to his fathers after life
heightened beyond mans allotted time,
full of noble deeds and grandly rounded
by the hottest and best work on earth

Stirring uD a Hornet.

Oshkosh Northwestern: The Demo
cratic papers stirred up hornet when
they attacked Mr.. John A. Johnson, Dem
ocratic candidate on the last state ticket
fer taking sides against the presidents
tariff message. Mr.. Johnson has stung
back, and his sting is long, covering over
six solid columns of type in The Nilwau-
kee Sentinel, defending his position, de-
nouncing the presidents attitude and the
free trade attitude of his party, and ad-
vocating protection as the greatest boon
to American labor of all kinds. A local
Democratic paper refers to Mr. johnson
as 0either very ignorant Norwegian, or
a very great liar" Mr.. Joknson's dis
sertation does not brand him as "a very
ignorant Norwegian" but on the contrary,
as a man of pIethoric ideas With singu-
lsr ability to forcibly express them. AS
to lis being "a very great liar" it is pro-
badly only question of opinion, and to
some people all men are liars who Go not

A Poser for Free Traders.

Boston Journal: A day or two ago
report of one Of our consuls was published,
giving the wages paid in certain Irish fax
mills They were for men from 1915 to
SIS per week; for women weavers, s. to
1915; for women spinrers, 81 to $3.50.
When the recent tariff commission ques-
toned the manager OF New Jersey fax
spinning mill as to the pay of his opera
tives, he replied: "The average per hand
is about $3.50 a week. We employ girls
from II years of age and upwards, and
some of them make SO week. Chill
dren make So or 81 week. A man can
make $3.50 to 81 day. This is another
of those cold, hard facts which the tariff
reformers of the free trade school are apt
to touch on lightly, but they have vastly
more weight with the great mass of our
working people than the glittering gener-
alities of Mr. Lowell aud the entertaining
nonsense of Mr.. Stearns.
