III the most magnificent
u display of Millinery
| have ever seen"
The above are the exact
words in which a prominent
society lady of Savannah ex-
pressed herself at our Open
ing" last Thursday.
There were hundreds, yes,
thousands of similar compli-
ments showered on us for our
novel exhibition, but we take
this lady's praise as the high
est compliment which could
be bestowed on our display,
from the fact that she is an
acknowledged leader in her
set an art critic, and knows
exactly what the latest ideas
are in the Millinery world,
for she has only recently re-
turned from the north, and
while there had visited sew
eral of the large Millinery
openings.
Well, we're trying to get more perfect
each year, this year better than last, next
year more perfect than this. viii we ever
reach the perfection for which we strive?
Wen try; the fault will not be ours if we
fail Wen populsrize our store this season
by making low prices the rule, not the ex-
ception.

Smuggling by Mail.

Most of the smuggling by mail is done
in parcels. When these are sealed we
always suspect something dutiable within.
The most remarkable thing seems to be
the small compass into which the mail
smugglers can get goods. A silk dress
goes into parcel that you would not think
could contain waist.
In one case we had letter opened, and
in thin piece of wood, carefully covered
with thin but rather Opaque writing paper,
were four fine watch chains with charms.
These had been sent from Geneva to a local
jewelers. residence, and the work in the
wood in which the chains rested was as
fine and accurate IS it could be. Each
chain and charm tittedtnto its little case
as tightly as possible.-Interview in New
York journal.

A Relic of the Rebellion,

There is a little steamboat on Green
river, running between Livermore and
Calhoon, that is little more than an eXag-
gerated canoe, supplied with boiler, engine
and a paddle wheel. 1t is the Alpha, and
it is engineered by man who has had a
great deal to do with the filling in of his
tory, the outlines being furnished by 9th
ers, his superiors in position, but not nee
essarily in ability. He was the first
assistant secretary of war of the Confeder-
ate States of America. After this he was
chief military engineer of railways under
the Confederate government, a position
that required a high degree of ability, in
finitude of resources and an almost incred,
ible degree of determination and persever-
ance.
Under his direction things were accom-.
plished in the way of building, repairing
and operating railroads that made the
northern engineers stare with wonder
when they considered the nature and guam.
tity of the material with which the work
was done and the conditions under which
it was accomplished After the war Mr.
Miner made great deal Of money in south,
ern railroads, but he went to California
and lost his entire fortune. He is now
more than 20 years old, and is at work on
the little boat trying to exc out a liveli-
hood by hard and honest toil.-Owensboro,
Ky, Messenger.

Extract of Peas,

Here is an excellent method for utilizing
the delicious marrow that lies among the
fibers of the pea pod and which is sweeter
and better than the peas themselves, which,
when of the best sorts and at their best,
are the first of all vegetables for fine flavor,
tenderness, succulence and nutritiousness.
Save for Use all the tender sweet pulp of
the shells separated from the troublesome
fiber which prevents their use with the
seeds in most sorts of peas. Boil the shells
well in water, to which has been added a
little carbonate soda; then strain through
a cloth, and, after adding some sugar to
the liquid, boil it down till thick. The ex-
tract thus obtained will keep for any length
of time without becoming moldy, and a
teaspoonful of it added to bowl of soup
gives to it the flavor of fresh green peas,
besides adding to its material quality

DODGING A SLAVE CHASER.
Excitement in Getting Away Under Fire

Excitement in Getting Away Under Fire
with a Load of Slaves.
Very soon the beach seemed to swarm
with moving objects which we could not
yet distinguish. A number of long, black
objects left the shore, and when through
the breakers they stopped at the small
craft outside Now we could see that the
negroes were being transferred to the boats
outside the breakers from canoes which
ran through them, with from four to six
in each AS the sloops were filled they
sailed for the ship, and, ladders having
been arranged, the negroes were soon
coming over the ships side. AS each one
reached the deck he was given a biscuit
and sent below. 1t seemed slow work at
first, but as the canoes were soon all
launched and rushing through the surf it
presented a busy scene. The sloops were
now flying to and from us, and a great
number of negroes were already on board
at 2p. m.
The lookout at the masthead shouted,
Sail, no! away to the southwark" From
the deck we could see nothing. A danger
signal was hoisted at once to hurry all
aboard faster In a short while we could
see from the deck little black spot.
Smoker A cruiser! Another signal, q
blood red flag was hoisted informing those
ashore of the kind of danger. If possible
the hustle ashore was increased; our own
boats were lowered and they aided mate
rally. The approaching vessel had seen
us and the volume of smoke increased
She could now be seen, and was recognized
as the Vixen with the naked eye
A signal from shore that very few re-
manned was hoisted, another hour passed,
and the vessel was certainly within three
miles. Our boats were recalled, and the
entire fleet of sloops soon sailed toward us.
Our boats were hoistcd, and lines thrown
to the sloops now alongside. The Vixen
now changed her course slightly and fired
solid shot, which passed to leeward of
us beyond. At this the Spanish captain
cried out, "Let go!" The pin holding the
staple in the anchor chain was cut and the
chain parted Sail was hoisted rapidly,
the negroes in the sloops climbed over the
ships side, and as the sloops were emptied
they were cast adrift with their single Oc-
cupant, Krooman. They scattered like
frightened birds.-George Howe, NJ. D., in
Scribner's.

To the conductor who says the

with her divorced husband:
To that I will say 1 can prove
that to be q falsehood by at
least forty people, who saw me
come alone, and by his own train
crew. Then he says my story Is false,
he never made love to me. can also
prove that a falsehood, for each
and every member of my family have
heard it and knew I was intending to
get married to him. There has never
been trip he has been here since be
first met me that we have not been
out together, which I can prove by
people who saw us. He now has my
photograph in his possession and 1
had his, but returned it to his wife.
He says L am blackmailer. I have
spoken only the truth, and will prove
every word of 1t. He then says am
after money. L don't think he has
much to spare, even though he did
say he was making $500 per month
running q passenger train. Then he
says my divorce was granted on the
plea of infidelity to the coDjugal vows.
1 will bring the lawyer who got the
divorce for me, and who is now in
your town, and SEQ who applied for
the divorce and on what grounds. 1
guess it is recorded, and 1 think he
will find got the divorce myself, on
the grounds of Ill treatment. He
then winds up by making assertions

to make him, in the court of San An

more than anxious for him to bring
his proof, and will make him do it.
