Found Out.

While seeding, the other day, liver
E. Steen saw a large flock of wild
geese In his cornfeld near where he
was at work, and not having gun,
thought he would see how near the
geese would allow him to approach
without becoming frightened. Drop.
the lines he cautiously crept up
quite near the geese, but they became
frightened and took wing, making a
great deal of noise in getting out of
the corn stalks. The team also be-
came alarmed at the noise, and when
Mr.. Steen turned around the horses
were sowing grain and different parts
OF the seeder broadcast. The gentle
man nowsays that all he needs is the
feathers to become regulation goose.

NO.. As
Esteemed by All.

The following extract from the
Rochester, Mimi, Post manifests that
Mrs. Geo. B. Haber was held in the
highest esteem at her old home
Mrs. Anna Amelia Haber, wife of
Geo. B. Haber and only child of John
and Mrs. Louisa Miller, was born at
Rochester, Mimi, June IL, 1868, died
at Brookings, S. d., April 26, 1891,
at the age of % years, 8 months
and FL days.
She was married to Mr.. Haber June
IL, 1888. Two children ale the fruit
OF this union. the youngest OF whom Is
but nine Gays old. The sadness of
this mystery of providence must be
apparent to all. An only child, g.
young accomplished wife, q mother of
helpless infancy.
But she has been a loving, faithful,
tender daughter, wife and friend. She
has been q devoted christian. Shehas
not lived in vain. And while we mourn
her loss, loss which must be her
gain, we know that at is better to
have loved and lost than never to
have loved at ALL" We are all the
better for having come in contact with
her consistent, christian influence.
The funeral exercises were held at
the German Lutheran church last
Sunday afternoon, and were largely
attended. Rev. c. Nickel, OF the Ger
man Lutheran church, officiated, as
sisted by Rev. l.. H. Mitchell, of the
Presbyterian church.

Uniforming Chaperones

MH5
It's very logical when you come to think
of it, so many are warranted in assuming
the diRnities and responsibilities of chap
eronage only by u technicality; they are
just as young as their charges, and a thoaght
more giddy, but they happen to be-mar
ried. 1t is we'll, therefore, that in opera
box or gay assemblage there should be
some outward and visible sign whereby hui
mainly, or so much of it as happens to be
within gazing distance, may OF q
surety that such and such sweet buds and
opening blossoms have complied with the
formaiities required by very considerable
ections of the flower world, and have fair
and fascinating duennas for their guardians.
No regalia can ever be adopted formally,
for there would be q strike of chaperoneS
if the suggestion was made above a
whisper that they be put into livery;
nevertheless, the matter adjusts itself with
out agreement, without consultation: some
subtle influence working insensihly, but
making its effects manifest along the line
of the eternal fitness of things. The Louis
XIV. coat is what his psychic farce has
brought into favor, Half the chaperones
wear it, and will you promise not to count
it against me if / so far forget myself as to
say it's very "swell?" I saw two fine ones
the other day at the exhibition of George !.
Seney's pictures. One was of a rich dark
green velvet with deep cuffs, Zap pockets
and walstcoat of green white satin, en-
broidered in gold. Its wearer had three
pretty girls in tow. but a rival with a pur-
Pile velvet coat and cafe-au-lait satin waist
coat had four.

Bernhardt Again.

Bernhardt on a muddy pavement steps
like a cat, as if she were afraid of water.
One never sees her arching her foot over q
puddle or going out Of her way to avoid a
bit of snow without reprobating her in ones
mind for giving herself-and the rest of US
fad-following women-over to snakes; her
natural pet was her first love, the feline.
The snake she wears at her throat off the
stage is almost as REALISTIC as the little
squirmer we expect to see on ~Cleopatra's
bosom. 1t is a long and flexible serpent of
and it winds itself twice, nearly three times
around her neck in three separate coils.
Its fat head, with great blood-red rubies
for eyes, lies against her throat peacefully,
but its pointed tail is thrust viciously into
the flesh, as if it carried a sting. With the
snake she wears, when she receives favored
callers, a long black silk robe, with a cluster
of brown and gold orchids at her bosom.

Dress Among the Working Girls.

On the subject of dress. it is wonderful to
note what a change the working girls clubs
nave brought about in the toilets of their
members. Such wise women as Miss Grace
Dodge, Miss Clara Potter, and Mrs. Mary
Storrs Haynes, the daughter of the Rev.
DR.. Storrs, who have influence in them, have
used this influence SO wisely that a lady
who was the guest of a little club reception
the other evening was moved to ask of a
bright girl with whom she was talking,
"Would you think it discourteous If l were
to say something very p%ersonal?' Or.
"Not at all, !" was the smiling answer.
well, then, l have been thinking that I
aever in all my social experience saw such q
well-dressed company of young women"
"Do you mean because we don't wear
plush and jet and those things?' [.
YES" this hesitatingly; II did mean just
that ep.--.
The slight figure drew itself up proudly.
mo self-respecting girl would put on taw-
dry ornaments; we think them vulgar"
How far this new spirit may go was illus
trated recently when a little outing was ar
ranged for a dozen club girls ''lald off"
from work. They were to meet at the
Grand Central station and ride q few miles
out of town to the residence of a lady who
had sent for them to initiate them into the
joys of t~obogganing. At the appointed
full dresses of dark wool, and with them
was a working girl not a club member.
This unfortunate outsider wore a pink
cashmere frock, trimmed with velvet, and
the club girls refused to fraternize with her
because, as one of them put it, "if she
thoue hit such a loud dress as that was fit
for a railroad train, she couldn't be nice to
know" Poor forlorn pink cashmere re-
quired the utmost efforts of her hostess to
keep her spirits from dropping to zero, for
she was summed all day,

A Notable Trousseau.

Still speaking of clothes, shall l take for
granted any curiosity on your part, and is
such curiosity to be considered pardonable,
or will it be a piece of yulgarity, pure and
simple, if l gossip a bit about our richer
neighbors? Among the daintiest things in
the trousseau of Miss Shepard, the daughter
of Col. Elliott +. Shepard, and who became
Mrs. William Jay Schieffelin on Thursday,
were the fans. One which came. among
many other gifts, from the BRIDES grand
mother, Mrs. William H.. Vanderbilt, was a
carved sandal-vood. Eachstick was richly
inlaid with gold, and the sticks were tied
together at the bottom with a gold ribbon,
crusted with Embellishments and emeralds.
The mount was yellow old lace, worth in
itself a small fortune. There were several old
Vatican fans with wonderful paintings 10

Grace on Small Economies.
One rainy morning a few days ago, it
happened to me to surprise Grace Green
wood sewing. "Do you," she asked, ''use
the needle?" Truth forced me to confess
that I had little knowledge of its gentle
mysteries. You are Fortunate" she said,
''take good care you don't learn; if one be-
comes a business woman it behooves her to
know that she can't succeed if she fritters
away her energies IN too nan small econ

her own dresses; if a man earns only S. a

the seams of his own coat or trousers. If
he did he would never earn any more than

THE BALTIMORE BoNAPAaTEs.
The Old Mansion Is Now the Property OF
MIR. Charles BOnaparte.
Especial CoFrespondence.1

BALTIMORE, Sept 1.-THE old Bona
parte mansion is situated on the corner OF
Cathedral and Center streets in this city,
and is an object of curious interest to all
visitors. 1t is now the property of Mr..
Charles Bonaparte, the grandson Of Nine.
Bonaparte. He was the favorite of his
grandmother, and to him she left her euor-
nous wealth, for in spite of the fact that
she lived in hall bedroom in a boarding
house, this eccentric woman was very
rich. Mr.. Charles Bonaparte is a lawyer,
genuine Frenohman, who speaks English
quite brokenly. He served in the Franco
Prussian war, and is fond of Paris, spend
ing much of his time in that gay city. At
present he is abroad, and the beautiful old
mansion, which suggests architecturally
both Arlington and Monticello, is closed. -
The story of Elizabeth Patterson, the
beautiful Quakeress, who was the wife Of
jerome Bonaparte for time, who was
repudiated by his family, and who lived
out her restless life in her native city, is
one of our national romances. Her por-
trait hangs in the historical rooms of the
Mercantile library in Baltimore, and shows
her 10 have been a beauty.
''She had the most wonderful hands and
feet" said Isabel Mallon, the well known
journalist, in speaking of Nine Bonaparte

together. and one of the pleasant memories
of my childhood clusters about those whis-
pered conversations in the silent library
She took of her gloves and showed me her
exquisite hands and told me that she slept
with long thimbles on her slim taper
fingers. She described her wedding
gown to me, saying it was of two widths
of silk NULL with one null petticoat
worn beneath. She scorned the idea that
women were more healthy in those days,
saying that in her day women wore muslin
gowns and satin slippers through the most
rigorous winter weather. She also said
that the reason women have not as beauti-

days is because they cover them too much"
