1t doesn't take much to attract crowd
in New York. Let two gamins start
across Fourteenth street on a run any
afternoon, and before they have gone a
block there will be a hundred people at
their heels, all running. No one but the
boys know what's up, but the crowd
PUSHES thit-t,r without any inquiring.

and gaze intently at the sky. and in ten
minutes fifty or more people will. have
gathered about him and directed their
gaze heavenward. Only New Workers.
would do this. Curiosity is the common
failing. | witnessed noteworthy Incl
dent of this character the other evening.
1t was at the corner of Sixth avenue and
Fourteenth street.
A man halted at the foot of the ele-
waited station and pointed his umbrella
toward the rear of the corner house.
He did it to demonstrate the extent of
New Workers. curiosity. He stood there
half minute, when a second man halt
ed. Then third stopped, and within
five minutes the street was blocked and
the street cars couldn't move. Several
policemen were there, too, and all gaz-
ing at the rear wall. Some one said
thieves were climbing over the roofs,
and other stories equally ridiculous were
bruited about. Fully 600 people stood
there, not knowing why they did so. 1t
was half an hour before the streets were
cleared.-New York Star

There il . little guild Of men faos-
tiously called The EARLY Birds.- They
rise in the summer before the sparrows.
and though they do NOT 81 10 work
themselves it is their vocation to call
other people to work. On dark winter
mornings they are out before the snow
birds are awake. They have regular
routes, and every morning between :
and o'clock they stop st houses. ring
door bells and tell people it's time 10 eet
up. Their clients are butchers. bsrtsu-
ders, car drivers. restaurant keepers and
car conductors. men who have TO 20 "a
work very early in the morning, and :,
whom it Is serious master to b 4 fteen
minutes or half an hour late.
Some Of these early birds have from
fifteen to twenty customers. They get
from twenty-five to ffty cents i weeh
from each. The bartenders usually nav
half dollar a week for being called.
The fact that their business Is ! succsas-
full one shows that they are more relia,
BILE and effective than an alarm clock
Their days work il firished in two
hours. New York Journal.

1t is scarcely probable that any other
CITY in the world will have, at least for
long period, system of sewer cleaning
as efficient as that of Paris. The sewers
are all constructed with that end in view,
workmen can carry on their labors with
out STOPPING, and the bottom is so shaped
as to facilitate the work by the dlfferent
forms Of water gates. In London asecond
sewer or gallery is sometimes constructed
above the main conduit by which par
tial cleaning is effected. There is not the
slightest doubt that all cities Will have
eventually to build their great intersect-
ing sewers, at least, in such manner
that workmen can pass through them ana
clean them. No amount of flushing VIII
ever suffice.-Paris Cor. San Francisco

greatly increased OF late, and it il I'M
Iquestionably used as an adulteration in

Not to Be Endured d.

Ii the Federal government desires to
stamp out the lottery evil, there will be
little opposition on the part of the people
and the press; but, if it gives irrespon-
sible underlings the power to stamp out
the press when it exercises it's right to
discuss the law, the result will be not
)niy opp sition, but indignation and
trouble all along the line.
Just now the papers are having good
deal to say about the arrest of a Wiscon-
.in editor because he published clip
ping from an exchange questioning the
validity of the anti-lottery law. If the
irrest was made for nothing more than
this, then it is putting it mildly to say
that our government has become Rus
iianized, so far as its treatment of the
press is concerned.
This policy will not work. Ii lotteries
,annot be destroyed without also de-
.troying the freedom OF the press, the
people will be in favor of letting the lot
5eries alone. We cannot afford to yield
,ur right to speak and publish fair criti-
;isms OF public measures. II we yield
the right in one instance, we may expect
o be forced to keep silence whenever il
suits the government to demand it.
Fortunately it is no easy matter to
bulldoze the newspapers of America.
The menace of fine and imprisonment
will intimidate very few. No matter
what Federal officials may hold, the
newspaper men OF the country will not
change their conviction that an honest
criticism or discussion OF the provisions
contained in the anti-lottery law cannot
with any show OF justice be held to be q
violation of that law. If they are mis-,
taken in this belief, then the law will
have to be repealed or modified. In this
Republic the government cannot array
tself against the press and have the
support of the people.-Atlanta fGd-D

I saw q pretty wedding the other day, and
l doubt if | can do better than describe it
for you. It took place in a country house
on Long Island, and rs the carriages drew
up before the old-fashioned entrance the
first thing we, who were guests. noted were
the long lines of true %hollyhocks that made
pink and purple and white streaks across
the grounds. Into the low-ceiled parlorthe
formal flower scheme, such as makes a
house hideous oftener than it makes 1t
beautiful, spelling at once the room and
the posies; but tall jars of old-fashioned
lowered porcelain were tucked into corners
and hollyhook branches rose from them
higher h the heads of the little girl
bridesmaids. The parlor was Japanese in
it's effect, and the h%ollvhooks in their vases
fitted in wonderfully with the butterflies
and the birds on the black screens and
the general impression of bamboo and
lacquer.
The bride was a tall pale blonde, and she
wore white silk trimmed with embroidered
chiffon; it was not she of whom I started to
tell you. There were four bridesmaids who
wore pale pink nuns cloth, made with long
coats and full vests of chiffon. They had
large, quantity shaped hats of biscult-col-
ored chip trimmed with pink and white
%hollyhooks, and they were loyal to the bios
som of the day by carrying hollyhock flow
ers tied up with pink ribbons. There were
two little bridesmaids of eight years posi-
bly,, in white embroidered muslin frocks
with %hollyhocks drawn through their broad
sashes of white ribbon, and there was a lit
tie page in a cavalier coat of white satin,
with pink ~rosettes at his knees.
The pale blonde spent half an hour at the
reception after the wedding, and then she
walked slowly up the broad, easy staircase
out of our sight, and when she came down
she was in a travelling dress Of dove gray
cashmere, with trimmings of silver. 1t had
a vest of delicate blush rose surah and a
Louis XIV. GOAT and a gray hat trimmed with
pink hollyhocks and gray wings. Again she

dress will impress upon you is it's more re-
s~peotful attitude toward the underskirt.
For some time past the underskirt has not
counted. 1t has not been recognized in
polite society, but it is recognized now-and
trimmed. This recognition has q meaning;
it means that the train has attached itself
to the street dress to STAY. Consider; it is
the overdress that is long. The sweeping
back breadth must frequently be lifted; it
must always be lifted when a woman is out
of doors. This means that the underdress
must be handsome enough to show.
The underdress adjusts itself to the stu
alton with a care which indicates that the
arrangement is expected to be more than
temporary. 1t is not too long, for it can
not expect to be lifted also. It clears
the ground. 1t is made usually Of
the same material as the outer
dress. and sometimes it is adorned
with n velvet strip cut in vandykea, or again
it carries a lace flounce or a series of mar
row ruf1es. II a wool dress Is made exactly
