hollyhocks. This toilet was made to aD-

characteristics, the one on the right

fashion indicated, plain maize straw
hat, with no other garniture than two
white pigeons, is worn with this costume;
while on the left you behold lovely
dress made up of gray striped flannel,
with fine white satin volant borders be-
low and jacket of mouse gray wool with
black satin revers. The chemisette is OF
pale blue and white striped linen, the
long cravat being of PLAIN white surah.
The hat W ich accompanies this charm
ing costume is black felt Spanish
bolero, ornamented with a white pigeon
feather. The gloves are white, and so is

skirt trimming. It will help out the
severely plain skirt amazingly. Or the
plalnness of the skirt may be relieved by
tinv frIlls set one above the other. These
frills lends great deal of style to a
foulard and in fact to all soft materials.
There is still visible and outward
sign of the hustle. 1t makes itself felt
almost imperceptibly by the Insidious
manner of its attack. To accomplish
this the modiste collects the back tulness
into very small compass and this of
course tends to produce an embryo bus

pads, but this fulness marks the spot,
however, and 1 can only say Care lie

theory is ingenious to say the least. But
the funny part of all is that man has to
pay the expenses of his own punishment,
and ne has finally reached that point
where it affords him pleasure TO do 80.
1t is the old story of the eels which be-
came SO accustomed TO being skinned that
they really enjoyed the operation.
Woman was never more beautiful than
just at present-at this coming Of the
autumnal days-and in this respect she is
like the birds. For, with all due defer
ence to Lord Tennyson, it is in autumn
and not in spring that their piumage is
most beautiful. That is to say after
they have had their outing.
The cry is now "Adieu to the ocean,
and it is just at this time, when the even

The lady in the initial illustration
wears one Of these costumes-R figured
silk displaying a white vest. The sleeves
are somewhat OF a variation, double

tern, but the rage for "toby ruffs,
''pierrette ruches, ''punchinello
frills, - and all sorts of feather and lace
neoklets, bids fair to interfere with high
collars.
There is no doubt about it. The aver
age woman looks better when that "uu-

However, this writer is correct in say

A male friend of an inquiring turn of
mind once asked me whether woman
really thought that she could successfully
disguise her age by dressing young. 1
told him that thought not, but that
oldish women dressed young for the same
reason that old men like to associate
with young ones. Now, il is exactly
this term nmiddle age" which is SO
distasteful to a woman. If she could
only change from youth to old age with
out any of these invidious gradations, it
would be all right. But to be expected
to underscore ones "niddIe age'' by
wearing certain style of dress-that is
asking more than poor, weak human
nature can bear.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Sept. 12.-Rivers
here are rising steady, although not near
danger point as yet. Adyices from all
along the Allegheny and Mononga-
hela rivers promise much high
water before Sunday. At the head
waters on the Allegheny rain has been
especially heavy, and has been falling
without intermisslon since Monday, the
fall averaging six inches in three days,
something unprecedented in the
upper counties. Comparatively little
rain has fallen up the Monongahela, but
it is raining now and more rain is prom
ised for this CITY. Country fairs are suf-
fering greatly, they being located
on lowlands, as rule, and
exhibits are damaged and race tracks
ruined.
Tributaries to the Allegheny are all
overlooking.
Trouble is feared on the Allegheny
Valley railroad.
ALI of the lower streets in Canton,
Ohio, are flooded, and great damage is
being done by flooded cellars, while small
farmers are also sufferers.
At Newcastle, Pa, the Neshannock
river is higher than it has been for years
and now completely covers the lower por-
ton of that city. Hundreds of houses
are covered to the first floor with from
one to six feet OF water and families have
been obliged TO move to higher ground.
a washout has stopped FIRE light traffic on
the Newcastle branch of the Harrisburg
and Western, while passengers must all
be transferred one mile. The
Pennsylvania and Ohio is washed
away in score of places
near Newcastle, and q score of mills
and furnaces in Newcastle and along
the Neshannock are covered with water
and have shut down. The deep Shenango
river is also rising, and danger is feared
from that stream before morning.
Reports indicate q greet loss to mills,
railroads and farms; nothing extraordi-
nary in any one case, but enormous In
the aggregate.

tain'' for here appears the first traces of
age, here the mechanism of nature first
becomes apparent, her cords and pulleys
spring into view. Hence the inclination
TO cover it up, and hence the readiness of
the Princess of Wales, who, alas, is
becoming a very matronly person,
TO adopt the feather boa, which in
genious contrivance enables one to wear
furs, so to speak, in midsummer.
In the second illustration you find one
of the late summer toilets to which l
have already alluded, the skirt being of
gray wool embroidered with white silk
shell motives, and the jacket a white
flannel with the revers, the collar and
the borders of the short sleeves trimmed
with cherry red passementerie zigZags.
The chemisette with the unGersleeves is
in loosely folded cherry red silk. To
complete this bright and attractive
toilet, cherry red stockings, white
gloves and a natty straw hat, with
white band zigzagged with cherry red,
are necessary. This costume may very
appropriately be termed not fin de
siecale, but fin de saisou. 1t still listens

2OO,-h Dilemma.


PREDIcAMETT OF TIE LUCKY MINERS, THE DETRC-
TIVE AND HIS PRISONER, THE BRIDAL
COUPLE AND THE BULLDOG.
Two miners who had struck a bonanza were
returning to their homes each laden with their
treasure, when they came to a river. The only
way OF crossing this was by means of a boat
But the boat could hold only two people, one
miner and his treasurer at a time; and, as
neither OF the two men was willing to leave his
treasure for minute, it seemed impossible to
devise any means of gett ing both across.
At this iuncture detective arrived with a
prisoner. As he was about to take possession of
the boat, he was accosted by the miners:
Hold on there, > said they. ''if you take the
boat across who will bring it back for usT''
The detective of course could not leave his
prisoner, and the situation was therefore no
better than before his arrival.
AS the discussion was in progress a young
bridal couple arrived, and they, too, wanted to
cross the river. They were accompanied by a
ferocious bull dog.
The miners and the detective appealed to the
new corners for assistance in their dilemma.
I'VE shall be very glad to afford you every
assistance in our power said the bridegroom,
''but on two conditions.
land they are?'' asked the first miner.
First, 1 cannot leave my wife unprotected
among strangers. Either my dog or myself
must remain with her on whichever side OF the
river she may be-
Gwen, that is easily arranged" exclaimed
''Yes,'' continued the bridegroom, but the
second condition is that my dog shall remain on
this eide. do not wish him to cross the
water. -
Then said the detective, ''I do not see
how the matter can be arranged"
Il do. - exclaimed the prisoner, who had not
yet taken part in the discussion.
And he proceeded to explain his plan, which
was successfully adopted.
How was the crossing managed?

19s-The Farmers Win.


Old Farmer Brown, about TO die,
Engaged lawyer living nigh
To settle worldly matters;
This legal luminary doled
The farmers dollars out in gold
Among his sons and daughters.
The eldest, Alice, was his lass;
AIlotti hers, thousand was
The sum ne chose to fix on;
When this was tackled to her name
The termagant in truth became
mean, malicious vixen.
Then Andy got five hundred good,
Although namby- pamby dude,
And dress his only passion.
He with his windfall went in haste
To crafty his childish taste,
And lead the village fashion.
Then there was Pat, a little wild,
Who somehow must be reconciled
To stop his fretful lsrgon;
And he, being willed 9 hundred cool,
Took what he got-he was no fool
And said il was bargain,
Had claims no father could ignore,
And so he willed him fifty.
While money held he lived and died
Like alcohol personihed,
For when was drunkenness thrifty.
The frugal Anne had private means,
Economizing from her teens
To better her conditions
See took the ten her father willed-
'Tvould help, she said, her plie to build,
And make her an addition.
And Joe, who wandering in the mist
OF social science, would insist
That property was plumber,
With only five allotted him,
In Hydrologic ages dim
Well might have ruled the thunder.
The farmers dollars now were gone,
But onesremained for scapegrace Con,
And, what was rather funny,
While some grew vicious. others proud.

BARRUNDIA'S DEATH.

The Story Told by an Eye Witness Of the Trag-
edy on Board the Acapulco.
NEW YORK, Sept. l2.-The Pacific
mail steamship Colon, which reached
this port to-day brought from the lsthmus
some of the passengers who were on
board the steamship Acapulco at the time
of the killing of Gen. Bar
rundia by Guatemalan officers while
the Acapulco was laying in the harbor
of San Jose. The associated press is in
de5ted to an eye witness of the tragedy
for the following narrative: The steam
ship Acapulco left San Fran
cisco August 13. On her arrival at
Acapulco, Mexico, Gen. Barrundia,
ex-minister of war of Guatemals, came
on board from the Starbuck, q sister
ship. He was known to be hostile to the
present government of Guatemala, and
it was understood thas he was
on his way to San Salvador. He was at
tended by two men as body guard.
When the ship arrived at Chsmperico
Guatemalan authorities, who had been
warned that Barrundia was on board,
at once sent off two boat loads of soldiers
and demanded that the general be sur
rendered TO them. Capt. Pitts refused
to seesde 20 the demand.

With this costume there Is worn gray

four hours, Capt. Pitts persisting in his
refusal to deliver Gen. Barnudls with
out an order from the government, the

course. This was August 81, and on the
evening of the same day the steamer ar
rived at San Jose.
