At Newport the method of taboo was
more polite. The hat of Conelius Wander
bilt was chosen for the occasion. 1t was a
wide-brimmed Panama straw hat, OF the

sort that rich and whimsical men sometime
pay as much as 500 for, and thereafter
wear it for many year, defiant Of changing

30, why don't YOU shoot the hat?" in
quired a saucy belle of the millionaire, as
be lounged on the Casino veranda.
"'I'll let you shoot it, if you want to, % was
the reply.
Every well. Give it to me-"
Mr.. Vanderbilt did not seem glad to be
taken at his word, for the hat was a cher
ished one, but be handed it over without a
word, and within an hour the girl had ii
placed on a secluded lawn as target, with
party of beaux and bellies firing at it with
a rife. The hat was hit and missed until
the fun of it was exhausted, and by tn at
time it was perforated like the cover of a
pepper-boK. This occurred on September 2,
and it was considered such a successful
ceremony that no doubt it will be Septem-
Der episode at Newport regularly hereafter
The example was potent, and just about
all the fashionable men who have come to
Ienox from Newport are wearing brand
new and glossy high silk hats. The ladies,
too, are appearing in
EARLY AUTUMN TOILETS,
which are much less snowy and gauzy than
those of the summer. The picture shows
two toilets, masculine and feminine, con.
sidered about right for outdoors in the Berk-
shire Hills. What are the wearers doing
in this particular instance? Well, looking
into the bushes. What do they see there?
Not much, probably, for their attention is

fixed upon matrimonial futurity. In plain
English, the marriage question has been
popped, and is under consideration. Mrs.
Paran Stevens, an experienced observer.
tells me that more matches are made among
the -Four Hundred at Lenox in September
than everywhere else all the rest of the wear
round. Summer firtations and intimacies
at the more populous and livelier resorts
are apt to culminate here, in the Quietly
sentimental atmosphere of the hills, in the
formation of conjugal partnerships. Mrs,
Stevens has spent great deal of time in
London, and she spoke of the success of
American girls in foreign aristocratic So
ciety.
or course there is dashing of matrimo-
nial hopes at Lenox as well as realization of
them, for the mating OF human beings.
especially if they be wealthy, is not ALWAYS
accomplished easily or satisfactorily. One
pretty and relatively poor girl, for instance.
is pretty well understood to have set her
heart on marrying a certain rich Young fel-
low. She devoted her summer to it, and had
reason to suppose that she was
MAKING THE RIGHT IMPRESSION.
Moreover, the father of the young man
took deep interest in her, and this was
construed as a sanction of the probable
union. The fact of his being a widower
was not taken into account, and that proved
to be mistake. After the arrival of the
trio in Lenox, one afternoon, the old man
began to talk to the girl indefinitely about
marriage. 1t was like the familiar comedy
scene In the plays, where the heroine is mis-
led as to whom the wooer is speaking of.
The Lenox maiden didn't suspect, although
the portlY widower delerentially uncovered
hls almost hairless head, and addressed her
with unusual formality, that il was he and
mot his son whom she could wed. But At

quitting the seashore she was seen shoVeling
up mound of sand on the beach.
"What are you doing?" inquired.
81 am burying my playthings," she re-
piled. "They won't be any use to me until
come back next summer, and so l am cover
ing them up, so they will be safe till want
them again"
The girls who have made a summer pas
time of Irritation may as we'll bury the sea-
sons sentiment, If it hasn't by this time
brought a matrimonial engagement. The
waves of q social winter may wash out the
graves, as they will the sand heap which
the little girl made, but there is no use in
Juggling worthless things away from sum-
mer resort
THE LATEST AND LAST FAD
of the closing season with the girls is the
parasol filtration. Several years ago a
language of fans was invented by some
body, and it got into considerable use BY
roguish maidens. The use of a parasol for
a similar sly purpose is a new whim at
Lenox. Whence 1t was brought would be
hard to discover, but it is here and dozen
of our most approved bellies are demurely
employing it. A code of signals includes
score or more of meanings. For example,
to hold the parasol across the right shoulder
and behind the neck, with its canopy
spread, exactly as shown in the picture,
is to be interpreted as Saying: 81 in
vite you." AS to the particular thing to
which she thus calls the fellow, circ1m-
stances must determine. 1t may be a chat
on a veranda, or a walk through Parsons
Meadow. Perhaps it might prove an in
vitation to matrimony, ultimately. These
things are very subtle.

REACHING FOR AFRICA.

All the prominent European nations
are taking great deal of interest in
Africa of late. Most of them have been
reaching out their hands to get grip
on the Dark Continent for an extension
of commerce and power. Even the
car of all the RussiaS has not over
looked the land of the tanned. He has
fostered the attempt to establish Cos
sack colony in Abyssinia. After he takes
in Arabia, Egypt would not be out of
his way. The concern of the German
government for EMIN PASTA is not
philanthropic by any means. 1t is con-
nected with the establishment of Ger
man colonies there. English interests
follow the heels of STANLEY. The
Belgian government has appropriated
S2,000,000 for the survey OF railroad
from the mouth of the Congo some hun
dred miles into the interior. Whoever
is chiefly benefited, it is to be hoped this
road will be built. A better day is evil
IDENTIFY at hand for that country. The
United States is not taking any hand
directly in the matter, but when it gets
into the shipping business again it will
have several things to ship to the peo-
pie in Africa besides New England
rum.

HOME SANCTITY.

However much the public may CEN
sure the jurors, or deplore their YER
dict of acquittal in the case of Mellow,
who was on trial for the murder OF Ed
itor DAWSON, of Charleston. S. c.,
there will be no disposition to question
the soundnesS of the law as it was ex-
pounded by the learned judge who pre-
sided over the trial. and whose inter-
probation probably furnished the jury
with pretext for finding verdict of
acquittal. The text of the judges in
structions was that principle of the old
English law which declares every mans
home to be his castle, and no stranger
has right to cross its threshold, eX-
cept he come as an invited guest. 1t
held that where one attacks another in
his home, the owner of such home so
assailed is not obliged to retreat, but
has the right to defend himself then
and there; and the fact that the as
sault was made in ones own home, after
request to leave by the owner of the
home, is a matter to be considered by
jury in weighing the reasonableness
of the necessity claimed by the accused.
The Charleston judge went farther, and
held that mans office is part of his
home, and is entitled to all the protec
ton and all the rights which the law
throws around the home

to strive most upwards, where it is most
burthened.-Sir Philip Sidney.
The avaricious man is like the barren,
sandy ground of the desert, which sucks

but yields no fruitful herbs or plants
for the benefit of others.-Zeno.
Character is like stock in trade; the
more of it man possesses the greater

Character is power-is influence; it
makes friends, creates friends, draws
patronage and support, and opens
sure and easy way to wealth, honor and
happiness.-Hawes.
The insolent civility of proud man
is, if possible, more shocking than his
rudeness could be; because he shows
you, by bis manner, that he thinks it
mere condescension in him, and that his
goodness alone bestows upon you what
you have no pretense to claim.-CheS-

DIR COLlIEGES.

At its last meeting the attention of
The chamber of commerce was called to
a proposition made by the Lutheran
synod to locate its denominational
college at st. Paul, provided the proper
encouragement was received. We are
not informed as to the details of the
proposition, or what eXactions are
made of our citizens, but we do say on
general principles that an effort should
be made to secure the location of the
college within the limits of this city.
One bright future that st. Paul has is
the prospect of becoming the educa-
tional center of the Northwest. and it
becomes the duty of our citizens to lend
encouragement to all educational
schemes. We have already made a
good beginning in this direction. The
Catholics. the Methodists and the Pres
byterianS have established their col
leges here, and the fact that other de-
nominations are anxious to do the same
thing is a recognition of ST. Paul'S i'm
portance as all educational center. In
the rush of material development we
are apt to be unmindful, and possibly
neglectfuI, of our duty respecting our
educational growth. There is no occa-
sion for rivalry or jealousy between the
various colleges and schools of a high
grade that are being located here. On
the contrary, the more new ones we get
the better it will be for the ones that
are already established. The more i'm
portance we can give to the city as an
educational center, the more flourishing
will be the condition of the various in
situations here. Not only to our Luz
theran brethren, but to every other de-
nomination. let our gates be opened
and the hand of welcome be extended.

hot contest for the location of the cap
ital. 1t is not improbable that the in
ducement will be effective, as the table
and other privileges at Jamestown are
of considerable repute, and it would
enable the prudent and economical to
take home most of their per diem. Pos
sibly Grand Forks and Devils Lake will

petitor this advantage. 1t is the first

ARE NOTDIsCOURAGED.

Those who assume that the recent
popular votes on prohibition, although
very emphatic in tone, will discourage
the people who have been placing that
question before party and office. and in
duce them to break ranks, have small
estimate of the intensity and sincerity
of the prohibitionists. They claim to
have passed crucial point, and will
now expand. A great obstacle in their
way heretofore has been the profession
of the Republican leaders that their
aims could best be promoted by adj
herence to that party. In the light of
the recent vote in a half-dozen Repub-
lican states, it will be easy to convince
honest prohibitionlsts that they have
nothing to hope for in the Republican
party. In Pennsylvania they have al
ready issued a call TOR a state conven-
ton to make nominations, and even
with their $4,000 majority the Republi-
cans do not feel secure. AS badly as
they were beaten in the late vote, there
were 100000 votes for prohibition. This
question is making trouble for the Re-
publicans in Massachusetts also.

CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., July "A
council was held late last night between
the Indians and commissioners, but
nothing was done, and the council
lasted put short time, as but few In
dams had arrived up to that time. To
day they have been coming in slowly
from remote sections of the agency,
and now are nearly all in. Gen. Crook
this afternoon held a council in the
agency school building with number
OF the Indians. No attempt was made
to hold general council, but work was
done with number of Indians indi-
vidually. Tomorrow some active work
will be done. Twenty-Five beef cattle
were slaughtered for the Indians this
evening, and they are now feasting.
Much good feeling is manifested by all
the Indians, and 1t can safely be pre-
dicted that the commission will
secure the necessary number of sig
natures here. The only serious OBJ
lection to the bill now made by these
Indians is in regard to the Santees be-
ing allowed to have say in selling

no surprise, and can undoubtedly be
easily overcome. The agency presents
a gay appearance, with the tepeeS of the
Indians scattered in all directions, and
the gaudy colors worn by the squaws,
make the grounds around the agency
look very attractive. A party of Cam
berlain gentlemen, consisting of Mayor
Eggleston. D. H. Henry, W. V. Lucas
and J. M. Green visited the commission
this afternoon and invited them to de-
liver addresses in that city on the
Fourth. The commission accepted the
invitation. and no work will be done
here on that day. 1t was expected by
the commission that they would finish
their work here by Wednesday evening,
but it is hardly possible to do
So By Friday or Saturday the work
will be completed and the commission
will leave for Crow Creek agency.
They will leave these two agencies with
fully three-fourths of the signatures of
the Indians at the agencies that have
been visited. Thus far, for what they
fail short of at Pine Ridge will be
easily overcome by the surplus at
Santee, Rosebud, Lower Brule and
Crow Creek.

SALVATOR,S SWAG.

The owner of Salvador is richer this
morning by $4,000 than he was yester-
day morning. His horse won the stakes
at Coney island, which was the biggest
purse of the American racing season.
Whatever may be said regarding its i'm
moralities. there can be no question
about the profitableness of horse racing.
1t is one of the misfortunes of these big
winnings. however, that the men who
usually win do not need the money.
The owner of Salvador is j. B. HAGGIN.
who is partner with Senator HEARST
in the Avocado gold mine. and who will
probably not appreciate the value of the
full purse he got while 1t would have
