Some Peculiarfties of the Fashionable Fs-
male Vocabulary.
Philadelphia Inquirer.
In her speech the fashionable young
lady has her vocabulary as she has her
code. Latterly she has permitted her
self the use of a good many English ex-
pressions. She says fancy always
for "suppose, and she never says
''guess;'' she says "chemist' for
''druggist, - ''stop attome'' for "stay
at home,' aud she club" oftener than
she ''takes a morning bath "Func-
ton with her means any sort of social
gathering, and very gay ball becomes
circuit. - 'FSmart" expresses a con-
siderable degree of excellence which she
applies equally TO wedding or bonnet;
"an awfully fetching frook or gown
Is very English for an especially pretty
dress. The likes the word "clever, "
too.
When she sees a fine painting she
says: s'That's a clever bit of canvas. -
If you ask her does she bowl, she replies,
modestly. eyes, but IN not at ali
clever with the balls Some phrases
she leans rather heavily upon, notably
''such blow, when the rain postpones
visit or a friend dies, and "such q
pleasure - alike to hear Patti or spend
a tiresome evening at the house of some
acquaintance. She has, too, an index
expurgatorious, which she is very careful
to respect. There are no more "stores -
for her; they have become "shops;'
"servants also have ceased to exist as
such; they are 'Emen servants and
''maIds, although she permits herself
to designate as laundress, housemsid or
butler; "gentleman she avoids; ga

male acquaintance, or 'there were lots
of delightful men out last night she

the opera; call right she never says,

Special to the Gazette.
CITY OF MEXICO, April 4.-The troubles in
Guerrero are purely local and unworthy of name
or pronunciamento.
The legislature Of San Luis Potosi has opened.
Great preparations are being made for opening
the Mexican Central branch to TamDico.
The minister of public works is studying the
question of stopping railroad telegraph lines
from sending mercantile kilograms, which viii
throw all telegraph business hence TO foreign
points and vice versa into the hands of the aexi-
can telegraph company and interior business into
Federal lines. This move is agitated by che di-
rector general Of the Federal telegraph,
who finds railroad lines infringe on the Federal
lines business. When concessions were made
to the railroad telegraph lines they were only
allowed to telegraph for railroad business
and passengers IN transit.
Henequen growers in Yucatan are alarmed at
the steady decline in prices Of henequin in the

Gen. Daniel F. SiclkIes, Appointed Sheriff OF
New York City and County.

Gen. Daniel E. Sickles whom Gov
ernor Hill appointed to fiji out the unex-
PRED term of James A Flack as sheriff
of the city and county of New York, was
born in New York city in 1928. After
graduating from the New York Univers-
ity, he learned the printers trade, and
in 1874 was admitted to the bar. En-
tering politics he was elected to the leg
islature in IS47, and in 1858 he became
secretary of legation at London. He was
elected to congress in 1856, and it was
while serving this term that he discov-
cred the unfaithfuIuess of his wife, and
killed her paramount, Philip Barton Key
and was acquitted in a trial for murder
which lasted twenty days. At the out
break of the war he raised regiment,
and in September, 1861, was commits
stoned brigadier general, and in March,
1868, a major general. In the battle Of
Gettysburg Gen. Sickles lost leg.
In 1868 he supported Grant for President
and the latter appointed him minister to
Spain. Until recently he was president
of the New York state board of civil
service commissioners. His term as
sheriff will expire with the present year.
To Gen. Sickles the Office will be
worth about S25 900.

Escaped from Texas Jail.
specisl to the Gazette.
DENVER, COL, April A very i'm
portant arrest was made here yesterday
when the officers captured James Ne
vile, noted Texas horse thief, at
Twenty-seventh and Lomoh streets. Ne
vile broke jail at Maria, Tex. :; where
he was serving out a sentence for horse
stealing. For the past two months he
has been lodging about the country
and has tried TO conceal his where
sbouts. Detectives Leydan and Clarke
have had the case IN hand, and yester-
day made dead sure thing of Neville.
Neville is man of powerful physique,
standing six feet, three inches. He sub
mitted to the officers gracefully when he
discovered that his game was up. He
has acknowledged having served seven
months of his sentence. At one time
reward of $3.50 was offered for Neville's
capture, but after time 1t was cut
down to $3.50. Sheriff William Russell
OF Preside county, Texas, will come to
Denver for Neville. The latter waived
the necessity of requisition papers.

Western States, Passenger Association.

CHICAGO, III, April 4. The general passen-
ger agents of the Western roads met to-day to
again take up the question of reorganizing the
Western states passenger association. This
was in accordance with resolution adopted last
week which provided that such meeting should
be held in case an agreement was not signed by
all the former members of the association by
April 2. Several OF the roads have not
signed, and among them is the Missouri
Pacific, which also declined to send
a representative to to-day's meeting. 1t is
understood that the Missouri Pacific has decided
not to subscribe to any agreement at present on
account of the traffic contract of the Union Pa
cihc and tie Chicago and Northwestern. The
Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern and the
Iowa Central both decline to join the proposed
association, but promise to live up to
its rules and regulations so long
as they can do so without detriment to their
own interests The Wisconsin Central notified
the meeting that owing to the change in man
agement occasioned by the lease of that line by
the Northern Pacific it could not say what its
course would be before about April 10. Accord
ingly an adjournment taken until that
date. 1t is generally conceded, however, that
unless the Missouri Pacific comes in no organi-
zation can be effected.

A New York club man, q bache Icr and
misogynist of the strctest sort, has ia
vorite apothegm which he enunclates at
stated intervals-say once a week-in q
very solemn and magisterial way. It is
that women drink as much spirituous Ii
quor as men do. Press him for an ex-
PLANTATION, and he will tell you that they
guzzle in secret, call the beverages med
icine, and have long list of petty all
ments. from feeling Ianguid to cold in
the head, for which they take spirits.
Well, it is no longer secret that ladies
may and do order cocktails, or made
drinks of any kind at reputable restau
rants. An hour ago two elegantly
attired ladies entered place
after q long matinee, and.
taking seats pretty well back from
the door, ordered drinks. Now tn csc
might hove been lemonade, but they
were not. They were made drinks, of
which whisky was the soul and life. A
little lemon peel floated on top. One of
these ladies was the widow OF we'll

appearance. Just how many follow
their example, after matinee, long

The people who could utilize the

MORNING APPEAL.
the PUBLISHERS WIN.

The California Press Associa
lion is beginning TO move in the
courts for the protection of legiti
mate advertising business.
For some years past the City
and County Supervisors have
fixed the rate of official advertis-
ing until they have screwed it
down to rate so low that it
means starvation to the publisher.
At HOLSTER the rate was reduced
80 low that none Of the papers
would do the advertising, and the
Board disobeyed the law and at
tempted to purchase some land
for the city without advertising
for bids.
w. B. Union, acting on behalf
Of the California Newspapers
League, brought an injunction
suit restraining the auditor from
Issuing warrant on the ground
that the failure to advertise invali-
dated the sale. The Supreme
Court agreed with the publisher
and granted the injunction.
This victory means a great deal
to the four or five hundred news
papers published in California,
and il they organize and fight for
their riShts they will get out from
under the heel Of the officials and
politicians, whose policy Is to
starve the publisher, with the idea
that in his poverty he can be the
the more easily handled in cleo
ton seasons.
In Nevada the State Board,
taking the advice Of the Attorney
General, refused to advertise the
Constitutional Amendments as
the law provided, and the whole
thing vas set aside by the Su-
preme Court on the ground that |
the law had not been complied
with. 1t cost the State good
deal of money to acquire this ex-
perience.
A few thick headed and obstin-
ate officials labor under the idea
that the laws on the Statute books
relating to newspapers are only
there to "fill in" and not meant
to be obeyed. One by one they
are becoming convinced Of their
error, but 1T generally takes
court decision to let the light into
their skulls, and their successors
assume the duties Of
their Offices with the same lessons
of practical sense yet to learn.
The newspaper men Of Cali
fornia have begun to teach their
officials what the laws mean, and
they have begun the work In good
shape.
