one wet and dismal day, and standing upon

and grins in his otherwise smooth
and ebony face, told him he wanted

perfect Babel, lapsed into the dumoness of
curiosity when the minister entered-the

explosive giggle of some young miss, fol-
lowed by the sudden, sympathetic litter
of the assembly. Meanwhile all eyes are

spordence. You are going to the sea-
shore this summer. And you want hat
that will not be spoiled just as soon as the
sea air touches it. So you must provide
yourself with one without feathers upon
it, for, as every one who has been to the
seashore knows, feathers become very dis
NAL looking affairs after little exposure
to sea air, fog and mist.
A very useful style of hat is biege
straw, or indeed any fancy straw, because
it is already partly trimmed and requires
but little to make it become really thing
of beauty. The open work straws are the
same, requiring only fancy bow or gay
wreath of flowers to make them as orna-
mental as heavily trimmed, plain straw
hat
For your seashore hat, you will find that
one of the fancy straws with broad brim,
looped up at the back, is becoming, SER
viceable and dressy. Catch the brim at
the back with bow of cornhower blue
ribbon. Plant large bow of wide blue
ribbon right on the front of the crown,
letting the loops and ends stand upright
in nice, smart fashion, wire them little
to be sure that they stay in shape, and
stick gold-headed pin somewhere in the
bow. Around the edge of the brim run
light wreath of cornflowers in various
shades of blue. This furnishes pretty
finish to the briIn, and there IS nothing
about the hat, flowers or trimmings, that
can be affected by salt air. Moreover the
hat is stylish and sufficiently out of the
common to make one feel dressy in wear
ing it.
Another way to trim hat for the sea-
shore is to catch it up at the back with
great bow of white ribbon. Underneath
the bow put sprays of lilies-of-the-valley

THE STRAW HAT.

The sweet shade falls athwart her face,
And leaves half shadow and half light
Dimples and lips in open day,
And dreamy brows and eyes in night.
So low the languid eyelids fall,
They rest their silk upon her cheek,
And give delicious laZiness
TO glances arch and cunning meek.
1t cannot frown, the placid browl
Hidden in rare ooscurity;
They cannot hate, the indolent eyesi
The sins they do not strive to see
And in the sunshine of her cheeks
The wanton dimples are a: play,
SO frolic-earnest in their sport
They do not care TO look away.
And. oh, IL Love, kiss winged, should come
And light on such a rose as this,
Could brow, or eye. or dimples blame
such lips Tor giving back kiss?

Lively Times at q Memorial Meeting o
Anarchists in Chicago.
CHICAGO, Nov. 12.-The stars an
stripes wave aloft after scene @, e.,
element unequaled since the Haynai'
ket riot. Over a thousand anarchists q
anarchist sympathisers had crowdc,
into the West Twelfth Street TurlGeI
hall to commemorate the day, Nov. I /
1887, on which their fellow anarchists
were hung. 1t was the most decisive
demonstration of the kind since the
eventful evening of May 4. when scores
of police went down in blood. The
speeches Were extreme and red emblems
covered everything. The climax came
during the incendiary utterances of Il
B. Weissman, editor of the New York
Baker, a German trades paper. In
spector of Police Hubbard and squad
of officers in citizens clothes We're
seen to quietly approach the stage,
They Ordered an American Flag
placed among the flaming crimson ban
ners, which were conspicuos every
where. Instantly there was profound
sensation in the motley audience, and
the police were Missed from all parts of
the hall. Mrs. Lucy Parsons, who oc-
cupied chair against the rear wsll,
shrieked out: ssHang the murderers of
my husbandr' In second pandemon-
ium reigned. hundreds of excited men
pushing forward, cursing the officers,
and seemingly only wanting leader TO
precipitate a frightful spectacle of car
mage. Nevertheless Inspector Hubbard
unfinchingly ordered suspension of
the meeting until his commands We're
obeyed. Through the din the half hun
dred police fould be seen placing their
hands on their clubs and revolvers pre-
paratory for fight
Which Seemed Inevitable.
1t was fully ten minutes before order
was restored. The flag meanwhile had
been reluctantly hoisted to place over
the stage, proceeding only accom-:
plished when the officers were found
ready for action. The meeting had
been taken completely by surprise, else a
more tragic result might have followed.
The first the crowd knew of the police
being present was when Inspector Hub
bard came through a side door, having.
come up by private entrance. When
he ordered the hosting of the American
flag, the tension was something almost
unprecedented. Hiss after hiss and
yell after yell frantically rose until the
whole audience seemed like a thousand
demons instead of human beings.
The leaders Of the meeting say that
the gathering was only to show regard
and reverence for the men who persisted
while laboring for the benefit of hu-
manity.
