was very light. The third was de-

first was the largest, being 1884.

A Million Pledge.

The New York Voice the prohibition
party's national organs latest fad is a pledge
of / 100000 voters who will cast their bal.
lots in 1892 for the prohibition ticket. The
conditions of this unique electioneering
scheme is that each signer pledges himself
TO vote the ticket If one million more will
pledge themselves to do the same. This
plan is to get rid Of, in advance, the inau-
ence which prevents so many voters from
casting their ballots for party they profess
10 agree with in principle, but despair Of
It's securing enough votes to make il worth

million felt sure they were going to vote

showing drawing enough more votes TO

and perhaps poll majority in number of

party prohibiiionist would not resort to the

than getting pledges enough to carry bis

by so doing few thousand votes for his

which confronts this scheme of The Voice is
to convince the average voter that the pro-

the Voice propose to overcome this obstacle

It is becoming more fashionable
as milIionaires increase, for them to
bequeatb their wealth to churches,

be an effort to give back to the pub

A Beautiful woman's Within.

A NewYork millionaire's daughter,
who is to come out in society this
winter, will startle Gotham with an
eccentricity so unique in the shape
of her first ball dress that all the
buds are likely to grow green with
envy.
Those who have seen this wonder
say that it will throw Miss Laura
Jean Libbey's wire dress, of which so
much has been said the world over,
completely in the shade. BY the
way, it may be interesting to our fair
readers to know that Miss Libbey
had also set her heart on possessing
this self same ball dress which the
millionaire's daughter succeeded in
getting. The contest waxed warmly
between these young ladies to secure
the treasure. 1t was made by the
same Partisan who designed the
famous wire dress, and he claims
that his second creation far outriyals
his first.
And now comes an interesting bit
of American shrewdness. When the
proprietors of the New York and
Paris Young Ladies' Fashion BaSar
found that the costume. on which the
Paris manager of their branch house
had set his eye, was being bargained
tor, he cabled over: "Give any price
in reason to secure the original de-
sign" This was done and the New
York belle is in fever of indigna-
tion over the fact that the design of
her famous coming out dress is given
in Figure No. As of the supplement
