NEW YORK WOMEN.
st. Louis Lady Expresses Her Opinion of
Them

st. Louis Lady Expresses Her Opinion of
Them.
New York Correspondence Boston Herald.
An opportunity to see ourselves as
others see us is given by two recent Wis
ltors to the metropolis, one a st. Louis
lady and the other a Boston woman
This discrimination is made advisedly,
for Boston prides herself on her women
and st. Louis on her ladies'. One OF the
latter unhesiratingly tells me: FYour
men are a deal more interesting and
finer looking than your women.
They are more alive, more like the
wlde-awake men of the West. But they
are not over polite to ladies, except those
of their own set, and even then, their
attention is too obsequious to be wholly
sincere. They carry with them every
where an air of having an ak to grind;
even your man of leisure has a looking
out-for- number expression that his
aping of En- llsh ways cannot wholly con-
ceal. Still, on the whole, l am not so
disappointed in them as 1 am in your
women. / looked at the crowds in Cen

wild. hunt after the much talked of
New York beauty. 1 seldom found it.
In the galaxy of wealth and fashion at
the opera house I was always struck by
the plalnness of the ladies. Big features,
lusterless eyes, scrawney necks and
arms were the rule, there was no plump
ness short of obesity. l never saw so
many homely, hopelessly homely women
as during my stay in this city Made
up compilations are universal, but the
roses and lilies OF nature manufacture
are seldom SEEN Nature, in fact,
has been scanty of her favors, while art
does her best The modesto, the hair
dresser, the manicure, the dress i'm
proven, and that immense fad of the
hour, physical culture, unite to make
the most of very poor material. And
the few beautiful faces 1 have seen have
a total lack of animation. They look as
though their owners had exhausted the
world IS resources for happiness, and had
found them insufficient. New York
women of style and position seem to be
tired of life. They all wear the same
expression as the grand danes when
driving in the park, who sit so erect in
their carriages and persistently look at
nothing. -

sengers in Kansas City in time to connect

card for the Missouri, Kansas and Texas,

Kansas City. II also makes Parsons the

A new candle has been brought out

This 1t does by means of tiny extin-
guisher of tin which is fastened in the

when its work is done, and the candle is

LAsALLE, Ill, July Capt A.
Goshinski of the Polish Guards of this
city fired three bullets into his sleeping
wife this morning and then tried to end
his own life. Mrs Goshinski, in her
nightdress and with blood squirting from
her wounds, jumped through the window
and ran to neighbours house .
With revolver i'll each hand Goshinski
climbed out on the balcony of his house,
where he defied the police, and the fire
department was called out. A stream of
water was turned on the enraged cap
tain, whereupon he placed the muzzle of
one Of his pistols over his heart and the
other in his mouth and pulled the trig-
gers. Both he and his wife are still
alive, but have no chance of recovery
Financial troubles formed the motive for
the tragedy.

EVENTFUL TO ONE SCHOOL.
A First Opening Day, and Other Items of
Educational Interest.

A First Opening Day, and Other Items of
Educational Interest.
Last Friday was an eventful one at the
Sylvan avenue school, Fourteenth ward.
1t was opening day, the first in the history
of the school, and all conceded that this
embryotic effort was successful one. In
the rooms taught by the Misses Eva Conrad,
M. Van Horn, Hannah Jones and H.
Mays, were specimens of drawing and other
school work. The boards were nicely dec
GRATED, and singing speeches and calisthenics
entertained the visitors the whole rejecting
great credit on the school. Miss NJ. E. Hunter,
principal of this and the Bellefeld school, ex-
pressed herself much pleased with the work
At meeting of the members who had charge
of the Prosser benefit concert yesterday to re-
ceive all returns it was found that the total re-
ceipts amounted to s., ,502 l5 and the committee
certainly must have been an economical one,
for the expenses reached the modest sum of
SIS s. leaving 81 4S6 20 in the treasurers hands.
The committee passed resolution thanking
the press and all who so kindly assisted them
in making the benefit a success.

tne battery viii be worked pretty high, -

surprised that an attendance of men can be

Of the inspection of Battery B, last Wednesday
night, he makes point which Captain Hunt
should bear in mind, and that is the remark
ably poor condition in which the GatIing gun
