the defeat of the Democratic party

buke to the candidate who said he
had been nominated because New

PIRACY In PETTICOATS.
THE EXTRAORDINARY CRIMINAL
CAREER OF A SPANISH BELLE.

Julia Corson on Dinners and Dining
A Girls Lovely Boudoir-Prune the
Plants for Winter.
A notorious woman, known all over
the Pacific coast as Spanish Belle" died
at Elmore, Idaho, aged eighty-seven years.
There is scarcely a mining camp On this
coast that this woman did not visit dur
ing its prosperity since the days of 1s4e,
Her history, if correctly told. would NIL a
large volume, and it would be a volume
Of bad deeds only, for no good deeds have
ever been attributed to her in the knowl-
edge of those who have known her his
tory for the past forty years. It seems
that she gloried in the crimes she COM
mitted, and during her convivial moments
would relate some incidents OF her past
life.
From this source it is gathered that at
an early age in her native a or Central
America, she became the mistress OF a
noted sea pirate named Valzag, whose
vessel was a terror to the merchant ships
plying the waters of the Pacific Ocean.
She boosted that her duty was, when the
ship anchored at a port of prominence,
to decoy rich men aboard the vessel,
where they would surely be roDped
ana murdered, Sne followed UllS CIinl-
inal career until the discovery of gold in
California, when she left her pirate para
mour, and landed in San Francisco in the
summer of 1S49. She soon drifted to the
gold mines, and followed every excite
ment from that date until the time of her
death, plying her nefarious calling, and q
terror in the community in which h
happened to cast her lot. 1t is said Span
ish Belle boosted of having murdered four
men herself alone for money, one in
Idaho and two women of her own sort
who were so unfortunate as to excite her
jealousy. It is claimed that she was
buried with a finger ring belonging to Il
of her unfortunate victims. The men
whom she had cut almost unto death in
Boise Basin, Atlantic, Rocky Bar, Idaho,
Eureka and Virginia City, New, are too
numerous to mention.
Yet, in her long career of crime, this
woman, by her devilish cunning,
aged to escape just punishment by law
In her young days h was doubtless q
handsome woman, and at her death did
not look to be over sixty years of age. She
was quietly buried Sunday evening about
seven O'Clock, with but one solitary per-
son following the remains to the grave

ouakeress and Negress.

Many years ago a colored girl, six years
old, went to live in the family of Mr.
James Meder, a worthy Quaker of Fal
mouth. In that family was q little white
girl, four years old. The two children
grew up as sisters and the friendship
continued for eighteen years, it is said,
without an unkind word passing between
them. At the end of that time they were
separated, the Meder girl going West,
where she married, and the colored girl
marrying a man named Furness in Ban
gor and moving to Brunswick in 1873.
Not long ago the two old time friends
met once more, their meeting being de-
scribed in the Brunswick Telegraph this
week. The Western lady, Mrs. G.
M. Lambert, of Denver, Colorado, had
made several Intellectual attempts to find
her old playmate, and a few weeks ago,
while in Portland, she asked a colored
man whom she net in a store IL he knew
such a woman as Mrs. Furness. AS it
happened the man could give the required
information and Mrs. Lambert went to
Brunswick. When entering the DON she
looked the old colored woman full in the
face and quietly asked, "Do you know
me?'
"No,n was the reply.
"What, don't thee know the Quaker?"
The old familiar Quaker form brought
instant recognition, and the two thus re-
united INDUCED in alternate smiles and
tears as they talked over their happy lives
in early childhood.-Lel0iSt07l Journal.

he has turned up before the public

which his four unmarried daughters were

The Harlequin Style.

A writer appeals to women to preserve
the harmony Of color in dress, and says
lone does sometimes see a woman dressed
like a harlequin, with a black hat, a
yellow gloves and tan colored shoes, and
this is no exaggeration.'' She is right;
such hideous combinations are sometimes
seen on Broadway in the richest materials.
OF course no woman so attired looks well
dressed, There can be no air of repose
about her when SO many unrelated tints

styles in Hair Dressing.

A style of hair-dressing as opposite as
possible from the soft, graceful fluffy
mass of hair so long favored, is affected
by a number of fashionable young wo-
men. IL consists of a number of moist,
fiat rings of hair fiattened down upon the
forehead, these called spanish love-
locks.a There are those who, for a cap
rice, have adopted this style of couture,
as the Spanish mode with them has
certainly not proved a success. The
pretty rolls of hair above the locks run
through with q Spanish comb or jewelled
min. are graceful, but the plastering pro-
cess above the forehead is hideous. There
is hardly a feature of the toilet which so
quickly and materially affects the looks

ally above the brow,-NeW York Post.

Prime the shrubs.

1t is a mistake to let shrubs go without
attention during the summer and grow
ing season. Then 1t is that they should
be brought into good shape, for by watch
ing them as growth is made can see
where pruning and training is required
aud the necessary work can be done at
just the time when it will do most good,
for shrubs are more tractable while form
ing baanches than they are afterward. Il
you allow shrub to grow to, suit ITSELF
all summer and attempt to rect1fy. what
you consider its mistake in the TALL you
will find that a great deal of its SIMMER
growth ma have to be removed to secure
anything like symmetrical shape, and OF
course these surplus branches indicate a
good deal of growth which has been
wasted. So much of the vitality OF the
plant as was taken to produce them had
been expended uselessly; proper attention
at the proper time would have thrown
this energy into the shrub. But we mus
take all things as we find them, n fall
finds most shrubs in need of a judic1ous
pruning. If we would have them AXE ON
q shapeIy form. Therefore when getting
ready to give them the winter protection,
which most of them require to a greater
or lesser extent, give them a good prun-
ing and make them symmetrical. 1t Is
well to do this before the coming OF very
cold weather, so that the fresh cuts on
the limbs will have a little chance to heal
or at least dry over before they are laid

that mature men pay more intelligent

: Here is the description of room just
completed by a fashionable decorator in
New York city in the house of q wealthy
man. who will have his only daughter
home from school this winter and ready
to take her place in society. The house
hold arrangements are being made
largely with a view to her pleasure and
convenience, and when she arrives she
will find this pleasant surprise that has
been prepared without her knowledge,
though the decorator has been at work on
it for two months. She is a pretty girl,
with a fresh pink and white skin, big
hazel eyes and very dark hair, and after
the decorator had caught a glimpse of
her he decided that the room should be
done in pink; so the walls are covered
with q French paper that is q
shade between cream and rose, and
above this is a frieze of a paper with
the pale brown and green orchids on a
pink ground. The ceiling is cream color,
sprinkled with silver stars, and the pic
ture moulding is silvered. All the paint
in the room is white enamel paint. and
the hangings at the windows and in the
arch of the alcove containing the bed are
of cream-colored China silk, with a pat
tern OF large interviewer rings of pale
green and brown, The bed seen between
the curtains is of s~ilyer-plated brass and
lace and a huge pair of ruffied and laced
pillows. The fireplace is in the corner
and has silver ~andirons, shovel and
tongues, being Enclosed with cream
colored tiles, Which have pink figures on
them, taken from the poems of one of the
