Still the Fayorlte,

If you are contemplating a trip for
business or pleasure it will be well tore
member that the Burlington Route is still
the favorite. Her old established line
to Chicago hardly needs more than mere
mention for the reason that every man,
woman and child in the country is so
familiar with the fact that over this line
runs the famous solid vestibule "ELT'
with its splendid Pullman Sleepers, chair
cars and dining cars.
Your attention is now called to our
double daily service between Kansas City.
Atchison, St. Joseph and st. Louis
Heretofore we had but one daily train
from the Missouri river to St. Louis, that
being night train, placing passengers in
st. Louis in the morning in time for
breakfast and all eastern connections, but
on account of the increasing demand an
other train has been put on and now
leaves Kansas City, Atchison and st. Jo-
seph IN the morning, placing the passen-
ger in st. Louis in the early evening of
the same day.
Omaha and Council Bluffs are put in
rapid communication with the lower Mis-
souri, river points by two superb daily
trains, one leaving Kansas City late in
the morning and the other in the evening,
making the run from Kansas City in
about eight hours. The morning train
carries through buffet sleeping car to
st. Paul and Minneapolis, placing the
passenger in the twin cities twenty hours
after leaving Kansas City.

PLANS WELL LAID,

DemOcracy's Preparations for tho Cam
pafGn - Some Deep Laid Schemes to
Win.
In pointed and well-written editorial the
Washington Republican depicts the Demo
cratic arrangements for the coming cam
paign as follows;
The great railways Of the country are
under the control of five men appointed by
the President of the United States.
The fishery treaty was made with view
to stimulate the greed and induce the fnan-
cial sympathy of the people of Great
Britain and the Dominion of Canada.
~ The treaty with China is timely made to
strengthen the nominee of the party on the
Pacific coast.
The appointment of Lamar to the Supreme
bench is intended to consolidate the South,
secretly revive Southern ambitions, and uni
fly the Southern States.
The enormous appropriations for new
navy, granted by the last Congress, have
been automatically held in reserve to be ex-
pended during this Presidential year.
The vetoes of large appropriations for
pensions and for National improvements on
the one hand and the refusal to call an ex-
ira session of Congress to reduce taxation
on the other, producing gorge of public
funds in the Treasury, creates an opportuni-
ty to raise an enormous campaign fund for
favors past and favors to come.
As the descendant of pilgrim and the
son of a Presbyterian preacher, Grover
Cleveland has the audacity and the tact to
excite the sympathy of Americanism on the
one side and seek the friendship Of Rome on
the other.
At the North and at the Nations capital
the colored man is recognized as citizen
and worthy of the emoluments Of Office,
looking to the colored vote in the close
Northern States. For the South sugar pays
an import duty of $50, 0O0, 900 to increase the
profits of the planter, whose industry is
based upon the servile labor of the colored
man without suffrage.
The Republicaa might also have added that
the Democratic party will not be embar-
raised by any sham pretensions to reform,
and that the various departments have been
transformed from serviceable and system
ATTIC bureaus to grossly mismanaged and in
accurate Offices. serving as sort of Ma
tiOnal rendezvous for all the petty ward
heelers and gutter bosses of the lowest type
OF politicS.-CIerc,dnd Leader.

Rather more after the usual order OF
spring millinery offerings are pretty
tooues in black lace and jet with flowers
or feathers for trimmings. Even these
are not always devoid Of eccentricity, or
shall one say originality? When a

tial, I'll tell you it was l, even l, myself
asked yesterday morning for some
thing quiet" the milliner brought out
a bonnet that might be considered for
purposes Of description in three sections.
To tit about the face there was band OF
ivy leaves in jet. Behind this,
and, roughly speaking, eccentric
with it, was a thick iillet Of pink roses
without foliage. The two tillets OF jet
and of flowers were wholly separate,
except rs twists of ivy leaves Joined
behind them. Laid fat upon the rose
wreath and filing the circle it incloSed,
was scrap OF black lace Of beautiful
pattern. The bonnet was unique, 1t
had classic suggestion, it was one OF the
most charming bits have seen this
spring, but for the genuine hush OF real
millinery Quietude there isn't much use
looking.

a few minutes this morning in q toque

scout sent 10 look the grounds over FOR
next year. From the summit Of it wave
pale gray blue ostrich tips standing
straight i'm air. There is a ruche at the
edge OF gray blue silk net and gold tin
sci. Such shapes and such colorS make
the season interesting, but there is lit
tie difficulty when one approaches the
question Of choosing something 10 wear.
Ii is not u hard task TO pick out
things notable seen at the openings. A
hat in pink and black further illustrates
spring tendencies. A huge roSette in
pink crepe is its only substantial Dor
ton. The crepe is crimped closely and
about half the rOSette, It's core or iRner
circle OF petals, stands erect in the very
middle OF the crown like cockade. The
outer circles OF petals, lie fiat and are
themselves the hat, or all there is OF It,
save and except a gathered ruche oil
black lace which lies beneath the edge
OF il for brim. AT the back this lace
turns up abruptly and stands in ian
or flare The woman who assumes
such a piece Of headgear should be able
10 live up to it with a good deal OF
piQuaucy.
A capote in black jet is in some OF its
features equally unusual. II has
round, caplike shape, fitting close to the
head, aud its frame is OF jet-Strung
wires in lace-like openneSs and intri-
cacy. About the face droop in ScallopS
festoons OF cut jet braid or jewels, like

they come down over the temples and
the cheeks, and they partially cover the
ears. They supply the motif OF the
bonnet and il has no other trimming
but knot Of lace, giving miStlike film
above the hair.
Some OF the most carefully consider
ed millinery tribes are hats for dress
concerts and for matineeS. One OF
these, bought few days ago for a
Young girl whom Mrs. Whitney has had
STAYING with her, was 4 tulle cap OF the
new tulle that appears as il Sprinkled

THAT RUSSIAN GUsHER.
Facts About the Big Oil Well at Baku-
Now Doing 10000 Barrels.

A correspondent writes to the Pitts
burg Dispatch as follows:
A few days ago a cablegram was pub
lished in the Dispatch, and afterward in
almost every other paper, TO the effect
that a new well at Baku, Russia, was
producing $1,000 tons OF oil per day,
which was stated to be equal TO 400, 900
barrels. Believing that the statement
was greatly exaggerated, and also be-
lieyiug that il is impossible for well,
drilled to the necessary depth, to pro-
duce any such quantity of oil, cabled
our agent at Baku, Mr.. l.. ID. Galligan,
to learn the size and location Of the
well. His answer is to the effect that
the well has been averaging 10000 barrels
per day, but that it is now only 10000
per day. aud that s Is located on the
eastern boundary of e old field. You
can see that the item mas been exagger-
ated $50. 600 to 300, 600 barrels per day.
Probably it is fair example Of many
other statements made about the Rus
sian oil business, although | will admit
that they have had some very large
wells in Russia. | saw two wells pro-
ducing 40, 600 barrels per day each, and
since was there in 1886 there have
been two wells that produced $4,000
barrels per day each. These statements
| know TO be. facts.
Probably the present well has been
drilled little deeper than the wells
surrounding it, and that 1t reached a
new pocket, which resulted in produc-
a.. 900 barrels per day for a number OF
DAYS. II is no uncommon thing IN that
country for well TO be drilled in the
midst OF wells that have become ex-
hausted, and, going little deeper than
the surrounding wells, has become a
large producer. In fact, one OF the
wells that produced $1,000 barrels per
day. was drilled in an abandoned part
OF the field, but it was drilled deeper
than the surrounding wells.
The new well so broadly advertised
opens up nothing new, and the oil pro-
ducerS and the oil trade generally OF
this country need not be frightened at
the new competitor, for it will have no
more than temporary bearing on even
the Russian oil business, and should not
affect our country particle.

gold beads and pink pearls. The cors-
age is pointed. and from the shoulders
to the waist run rose ribbons. Between
the ribbons the bodice is covered with
intricately wrought jeweled braiding
With this frock is TO be worn wide nat

On the street are seen many "Smart"
tailor costumes. A tall girl was out this
morning with long twigs OF "pusSy"
willow thrust into her buttOnhole. Her
clOSe-itting coat OF smooth gray cloth
was OF the three-quarter length, and
was braided up and down the front with
huge lunches of violets tied with bow
knots Of gold. The violet embroidery
was continued about the high Medlci
collar and half way up and down the
sleeves. Her dress was of rougher gray
cloth, and her turban Of gray straw
with violetS and gold ribbons.
Another notable figure on the prone
made was Il slim blonde. English enough
TO walk well and too English to be grace
ful. She wore gray homeSpun tweed,
straight and plain and with it a
Shcrt gray jacket, with loose fronts that
might have buttoned, but didn't, with
large pearl buttons. Instead OF button
ing it flew open to let me see "hunt'
waiStcoat of bright yellow cloth, doub-
le-breaSted and with daintily stitched
reverS. fitting eXquiSitely to the figure.
A high standing collar, gray silk neck
tie aud gray straw hat with dandeliOn
or two completed the outfit OF this very
correct young woman.
The third coat | noticed Glanced TO
be Of black lambs wool, lined with APP
ricot silk and richly braided. None OF
these garments were very high on the
shoulders, for your true tailor cut Is
conservative. When with spring hats
and spring coats and spring dresses the
spring sun gets high enough to suggest
the carrying OF the great flowers Of
spring paraSolS, then, indeed, will there
be chances for observation.
