IN speaking of the late Mrs.
Lucy Webb Hayes, wife of ex-Pres-
ident Hayes, the New York Irj5lme
pays this graceful and deserved
tribute TO her amiable character;
"NIrs. Hayes was woman of rare
Intelligence and of deep convictions.
She found it easy to do her duty as
she understood it, because her cour-
age was part of her conscience.
She will be long remembered by
all who came in contact with her,
aud 10y thousands to whom her
stability of character made a deep
appeal, with a grateful appreciation
OF the value of her pure and high
example. Her kindness, disinterest-
edness and hospitality will not be
soon forgotten in the National Cap
ital. She lived upon high plane
all her life, and her influence was
everywhere beneiceut.'

of President IIarrison's relations to
the colored race. He believes that
the colored people viii receive every

than upon their own efforts He

Invention Of the Microscope.

M. Cow, an Italian savant, has pre-
scented a paper to the French Academy
sof Sciences, in which he claims for
Galileo the distinction of having dis
covered the microscope as we'll as the
telescope. He has found book print
edin 1910, according to which Galileo
had already directed his tube fitted
with lenses to the observation of small
near objects. The philosopher him
self stated, shortly after this date, that
he had been able to observe through q
lens the movements Of minute animals,
and their organs of sense. In a letter
written in 1914 to Sig. Tarde, he
states that he has with his microscope
''seen and observed flies as large as
sheep, and how their bodies were COW
cred with hairs, and they had sharp
claws" The date usually assigned to
the discovery Of the microscope is 1921,
and the invention is attributed to Cor
pelius Drebbel, Dutchman; but, &C.
.cording to NJ Cow, the date must be
thrown back eleven years and the

the desired end will be reached by it. If
there was only the one class of females
in the building this might do, but
there are high hatters in the audience
and high dressers on the stage. Now we
are fully persuaded that the injury to
the necks Of those who have to strain
them to an undue length in order to see
what part Of the drama is visible ON the
stage can be as truly avoided by length
ening the lower gearing Of females on
the stage as by shortening the upper

There is very marked tendency in the
modern refined drama to display itself
in the costume which predominated In
Eden before the fall. We cannot be-
lieve that the hats are faulty.
