Alfalfa Farming at Foot of the Rockies.
AS the time approaches for the Worlds
Fair, greater interest is being felt in the
marvellous City of the Lakes. The Cos
%mopolitan Magazine has devoted 90 pages
of the November number to a most in
teresting and exhaustive article upon
Chicago from the pen of the famous
novelist, Col. Charles King. Count ia
Classy, who spent some time on the ground
for that purpose, and Harry Fem, have
illustrated the most charming features of
the city by % sketches. An article upon
Alfalfa Farming in this number, is by
John Brisben Walker, who, as the result
of ten years spent in the saddle, in direct
superintendent of his farm "Berkeley,"
one of the largest Alfalfa farms in Col
orado, gives the reader much valuable
information in regard to the irrigation
and curing Of the wonderful plant which
is destined to become one of the most
valuable products of the United States.

THE PEOPLES PARTY.

The New York Advertiser says that
"the comparatively new party which be-
gan in several of the Southern and West
ern States as the farmers alliance, and
which already has nearly come to an end
in some States, has popped up in Massa-
chusetts as the peoples party. Of course,
it opposes interchangeable, unequal
taxation, and so on; and is not satisfied
with the management of the Nations
monetary matters. From the earnestness
and vigor with which the leaders Of the
new party talk, they evidently are pro-
foundry impressed by the belief that a
thousand OR two men in one corner of
the country can set all these things right.
"The thoroughly independent position
of the Morning Advertiser permits us to
assume that each of the two great politi-
cal parties, while differing in methods
and policy, yet aims at the same result,
which is, the best possible administration
of the Government.
Either of these parties, when in power,
is the peoples party, because 1t can, if it
will, secure for the people what they de-
mand or need. For this reason, what are
called third" parties, which turn up un-
der various names-such as labor, prohi-
bition, farmers alliance Or people's-are,
so to speak, national nuisances. They
are interferences and distractions, and,
in many instances, positively prevent the
securing of the very Legislation which is
professedly the primary purpose of this
third party organization. 1t will not per
NIT another party to do for it what by
no possibility could it do for itself.
GLOW a small third party can, year af-
ter year, actually defeat the will of the
people is ~conspicuously shown in the
State of Connecticut, where the two
principal parties are nearly evenly divi-
ded, but where the Constitution requires
that candidates shall be elected, not by a
plurality, but by a majority cover all"
This antique absurdity makes an election
by the people in that State almost ina
possible"

FASHIONS OF 1000 YEARS AGO.

DR.. Julian J. Chisholm, who has
travelled extensively and is close OBJ
server, when asked by a reporter TO
name what startled him the most in his
sight seeing trip of the last summer,
said: The street dress of the ancient
Assyrian ladi S." Among the collec-
ton Of BabyIonian antiquities Of the
Br tish Museum his attention was at
tracted to the little hollow cylinders
made from some very hard stone or
onyx cbalcedony, jasper or lapis lazuli,
which were used as signets by the an
cient Babylonians. Their age, as
chronologically established, 2,Soo B. c.
long before the time assigned to the
building Of the Tower of Babylon, and
about the period of the destruction
the world by the great deluge, These
cylinders are the lergth and size Of a
lady's little finger. Upon their surface
are beautifully cut in'aglios. To exhibit
the nature and perfection Of these an
cient carvings on such very hard sub
stances, the custodians of the museum
had made lmprints in fine plaster, which
were placed, by the side of the cylinG-
ers. Some of the impressions, as sharp
as the most perfect cutting on gems Of
the present day, represented female
figures, dressed in the walking cos
tunes of that very distant period. The
style Of the dress was very striking
The gown was hight fitting sleeve.
The skirt clung to the figure about as
it does to-day on ladies fashionably
atured. The distance from the waist
to the hem Of the garment was equally

skirts. each -made apparently of the

disturbing an element in the theatre
seats of the present day. The whole
costume was SO familiar that it would
not attract special attention ifseen upon
our streets to-day, and yet these ladies
lived and dressed over 1000 years ago.
Fashions are kn own to revolve in cir
cles, and are continually returning to
those previously discarded. Those
Babylonish Signets, with their wonder
ful carvings, preserved to US from ante
diluvian times, establish the truth Of
this adage beyond peradventure.
From these very curious and interesting
historical prints the inference may be
drawn that most likely the male mem
bers of Noah's family, when they
sought refuge in the ark, wore high
hats aid accordion plated gowns.

GLOVES IN ANCIENT TIMES.

The antiquity of gloves, though re-
mote, NAV moi run coevaI with that of
the human hand 1t is claimed, how
ever, that distluct evidences are gwen
Of their use by the cave dwellers. Mr..
S. w. Beck, whose researches upon
gloves are very full and minute, notes
the fact that where the drawing off CT
the shoes is referred to in the book of
Ruth the word for "shoes" should be
translated glove" The Hebrew
scholars who make this contention say
also that the shoe Is Lever made a
token Of faith, but is only associated
with acts of humility and obeisance.
So in Psalm Cviii where it is said.
O.er E ION will | cast out my shoe,
the word "shoes" should be glove"
For 10 throw a glove over Eiom would
accord with all precedent is co lveying
cha!eDce, or the u,terance oil boast
fu! promise OF punishment. To throw
shoe would have no wallike signifi.
cance Whatever"
Among the Israelites it Is certain
gloves were sign simply of rank, or
used for display, as with all early peop-
les. Ancient paintings OF mural kind
exhibit them on the hands of kings and
persons high in authority. For every
day wear and amolg the common
people more primitive device prevail
ed for purposes OF protection, since the
sleeves Of both sex.s were long and
ample, and readily avail .bIe for hand
coverings when defence ag inst inclem
ency OF the weather was needed" The
cloak, too, when it was of liberal size
and warmth, could be easily made to
cover the hands securely.
A certain Roman writer thought it
was species OF ef-miaacY to wear
gloves bat his iAveclivrs against them
had little effect. Among the eplcures
Or, one might better say, glultons-
OF Rome gloves were worn at the table.
As the knife aud fork were not then
used, it being the custom to carve and
handle the viands with fingers, those
who had their hands habitcd could
hold the hottest meats without trouble,
and were sure to get larger share than
the persons who dined ungioved.
Whether the Romans Introduced the
glove into England is not established.
1t was foud there, however, in Anglo
Saxon times. The poem OF BeowuIf,
a seventh cen!ur? romance, mentions
the glove ; and not much later gloves
figure iD the cuitOm5 laws as part
of the duty pail by Germln merchants.
Allowing ecclesiastics TO wear gloves in
church while the lalty were to remove
theirs was an old rule; white gloves
were, in fact, put on the bishop at his
ordination to symbolic. the purify OF
his office. A prayer in more than one
of the old missals offered by ecclesias-
tics contains the petition that 1 may be
found with pure hands. Among the
church trapplngs of the Middle Ages
highly ornamented gloves are enumera-
ted. Gold, silver, and precious stones
were employed IN making them and
there was also no lack Of lavish decora-
ton.-Harber'S Bazar.
