Capes for Evening Wear.

Some of the new capes of velvet for
dressy evening wear are elegant and
picturesque in appearance, and confer
great distinction on the wearer if she
be tall and slender. One model is of
Venetian brown velvet, finished with a
jewel-studded color and lined with satin
amber. Another of green velvet is
lined with fawn-colored silk shot with
pale green. The collar is covered with
jet. Black velvet capes, made full all
round and not gathered in at the back,
are variously finished, and some are
very gay in effect, being lined with
vivid red faille, deep orange brocade,
pale rose armure or with "a fancy-plaid
ed silk, showing rich mixture of Per.

The Local paper.

The Page Courier says truly:
The city papers are all right if
you want them, but it is the
local paper that advertises your
business, your numerous So
cieties, your churches, your
affiiction, and rejoices in your
prosperity. In short, it is your
local paper that mentions the
thousand and one items in which
you are interested during the
past year, and which you do
not find in the city papers. Yes,
it is the home paper that re-
cords your birth, publishes
your marriage, and chronicles
your death. To the great journ-
als--the forty page compendi-
uinsof the daily happenings Of
the world, you are not even a
cypher. To get the least notice
from them you must steal $780,
900, commit an atrocious muir
| der, or have a half-dozen living
wives, But your local paper
watches over you with loving
solicitude all the time. If you
strike itrich in. a lottery, it is
glad and says so. If you are
sick it is sorry, and hopes that
you will soon be well. 1t tells
when you como and when you
go; when your house burns
down or when you build a new
one; when your Johnnie has the
mumps or your Mary has the
measles, and how much little
Peter weighed on arrival. And
when you require the whole
street and both sidewalks to get
home from the lodge, it shuts
both eyes sand NUNS the
word" Yes, take the big pa
pers If you are interested in
what is going on in Africa, but
If you want to keep up with
your own biography take your

steady Improvement Through
4 out the South.
The Manufacturers Record,
of Baltimore, of Saturday, in
reviewing the industrial prog
ress Of the South, says:
Reports from all parts of the
South show a very general inn
provement in financial matters,
almost unprecedented cotton
receipts and heavy foreign
shipments, a somewhat strong
er feeling in iron, and fairly
liberal sales both of charcoal
and coke iron, and a marked
change for the better in the
disposition of capital to seek
investment in this section;
railroads are crowded with
business, and in some places
cars cannot be had fast enough
TO move the traffic offered;
manufacturing enterprises of
nearly all kinds are running on
full time and earning fair, and
in many cases large, profits.
In general industrial matters

terprises have been organized.

A Philadelphia manufactnr.

A Philadelphia manufacture
er has informed the Scientific
American that the black plates
used for roofing tin can be made
in this country at aprice a little
over $500 per hundred pounds
in excess of the foreign price.
The Mckinley law protects
these plates at the rate of $44.0o
per ton, which, the reader will
perceive, is just enough TO keep
the foreign article out, and to
fasten a tax Of $2.l0 per hum
dred lbs. upon American con-
sumers. That it was for the
benefit, and at the dictation, of
the roofing-tin manufacturers
that the tin schedule of the
Mckinley law was concocted,
no intelligent citizen can doubt.
