Baltimore PrPSbytery

BALTIMORE, April 23.-The Baltimore pres
bytery quickly got to the question of revision
today. Majority and minority reports were
again read. The former recommends a
change in the phraseology of the confession,

claims that there is no general call for a re-
vision and if ordered it would place the church
in false position before the world

Swindled Into Paying for Scalps.

One of the latest swindles reported is that
from Grant county, Kan, where the county
treasury has been robbed of several thousand
dollars. About year ago the board offered
bounty of cents each for rabbit scalps and q
for wolf scaips. All along there have been in
dications of crookedness but when the allow
anees we're made at the April meeting of the
county board last week it was discovered that
there was an open, bold robbery. More than
Sl5, goo had been paid for the scalps, and most
OF them at cents apiece. Payment has been
made for more than $4,000 scalps which were
never taken. There have not been that many
taken in all southwest Kansas. One of the ex-
county officials seems to be managing the
swindle.

three children and nephew, Miss Nettie

and Mrs Stevens The party, with the
exception of Miss Grayam, who stood
on shore, went bathing in the creek
about quarter of a mile from the house
where they were stopping.
The steamer Sue came along. The
delight of the children at the sight of
the vessel found expression in hearty
cheers and waving of hands, which sa-
lutations Captain Geoghan acknowl-
edged by several whistles. The Sue
was about quarter of mile from the
batherS The undertow from the
steamer caught the women and
children and swept them beyond
their depth. Miss Grayam cried out
so loudly that Captain Geogham heard
her, but before he could reach the
bathers number of oystermen went to
the rescue and saved nine. Mrs john
son and Edith Storm lost their lives in
efforts to save Mrs. Storm and Carroll

! DRESSING IN GOTHAM.

1t II Not the Richest Men That Wear the
Best Clothes.
The best-dressed men in New York
are not the richest citizens by any
means In fact, dress is no more the
index to mans pocketbook here than
1t is elsewhere. There are probably
90. 900 clerks downtown who dress bet
ter, richer and more tastefully than
their employers. Some of our million
aires are 50 mean they would use q wart
on the neck for q collar button. They
show 1t in their attire as well as in
other ways The best-dressed man you
meet is more likely to be a man who
lives in hall bedroom Of some cheap
boarding house and can scarcely raise
money TO pay his board from week to
week. He may be an actor, or a barber,
or q dry goods clerk, or something of
that sort, but he pays special attention
to clothes. He makes clothes the lead
ing feature of his daily life. Every
fashionable woman will tell you that
dressing is an art It is the same with
a man. Itrequires both taste and study,
and not necessarily good deal of
money. The less money, the greater
the genius demanded. 1 have seen
women who always look better on 500
or $500 year than others on as many
thousands.
All of us know men who spend lot
of money on clothes and tailors and are
never we'll dressed New York is full
of such men. Life is too short and time
too valuable for most men to worry over
the exact shade or figure of cloth and
the precise cut or fit of the tailor. So
the fashions of men are invented and
governed by people for whom those Of
the great, driving business world have
the utmost contempt, just as the fash
ions of the feminine world are nodded
and set by the cocottes of Paris. The
originators are worthless and unknown,
but they bring to bear on the matter an
amount of taste and an aggregation of
novel ideas superior to the masses who
consciously or unconsciously initiate
them. There are young fellows about
New York-yes, and old fellows, too
who, on small incomes, get more amuse-
ment out of dress, and make Drawer
show of fashion than all the million
aires of the country put together.-N.
Y. Letter.
