why They Fled.

PARIS, Oct. 16.-In an interview to-day
Dillon said that after the yacht on which
he and O'Brien escaped had been out two
days, the supply Of illuminating oil ran out.
In consequence it was impossible to light
the yacht. Thin made it dangerous sailing
in such crowded waterway as the channel,
and several times they narrowly escaped
being run down By passing vessels.
OBrien's sole object in refusing to face the
accusers to the end in Yipperary was to
keep his engagement to speak in aid Of the
Irish cause in America. He 10 confident the
mission 70 that country would meet with
success. The nationalist party ia in perfect
accord. and Ireland has implicit condolences
in Parnell. The death OF Gladstone OF the
bankruptcy Of the national league were the
sole hopes Of the tories in their 6ght against
the parliamentary agitation for Irish home
rule. Dillon and O'Brien will remain in
Paris eight days, when they will take pass
age for New York.

ABOUT SHOES.
Somc Of tho Kinds Of Leather Used snd

Somc Of tho Kinds of Leather Used snd
Their Endurance.
The calfskin is one of the most delioate
of leather fabrics, says the Shoe and Leather
Reporter. Light shoes of this material on
the feet OF heavy men are often subjected
to strain to which they are unequal. One
causeof leather cracking is perspiration.
Skins are finished 6esh side out and always
begin to give way from the grain side, which
is next to the foot, and prespiration rots
leather and Innings very quickly. Patent
leather 10 more troublesome still. It il

Glazed kid is the material Of which most
fine shoes for women's wear are made. The
alum tanned is preferred. Alum, is a pre-
servative, and leather produced with il can
hardly be called tan-it is tawed. II the
skin is ovcrlined, or if the ingredients are
not properly mixed, the finished article is
liable to crack when made up The.
perspiration affects it somewhat, for
the leather will soften. and then, when
dry. it hardens and breaks. Shoes made
from kid won't stand wet weather or mud
without either breaking or losing their
gloss. Retailers should impress on their |
customers that kid shoes arc to be used
tenderly ana carefully. The old sumac
tannage pebbles. straight grains, etc., have

ctr;etp,as Land.

When Christmas white comes in the night
And lines the lawn, the glebe and glade,
Then doing lads and lassies haste
To reach, in dreams, the land of taste
Along the fields of jujube paste,
Across the streams of lemonade.
A moment seems a day in dreams,
A minute for month ayails,
Until they reach that honeyed land
Where sugar takes the place of sand,
And gumdrop trees on every hand
Are plundered by vanilla gales.
The hills are made of marmalade,
And jellied into dales and dells;
The peaks in taffy ridges rise
Where soda fountains fizz to skies,
Where bushes bend with custard pies,
And trees hang low with caramels.
The streams that leap a-down the steep
Are melting creams of frozen ice;
And these in rivulets begun
With stmallows'' softened by the run
Into the sponge cake valleys sun,
With everything that's sweet and nice.
Then DER the mead with eager greed
The youngsters fit like sunny CLEANS;
But ere single sip they take
The jelly mountain starts to quake.
1t topples tumbles; they awake,
And-that's the way it is with dreams.
