An Expert Opinion.

The New York State Meter inspectors
deputy was asked this question the other
day: could gas company make meters
record more than was necessary to be
consumed by tenants by putting on an
increased pressure through the pipes?"
The inspector replied: 'Of course, an in
creased pressure will make more gas go
through the meters than is necessary for
the lights. The companies have to put
on a lot of pressure about o'clock in
the evening when everybody is lighting
up. That is what makes the gas jump
and fare so. All the gas coming through
the pipes is not burned, and that is
where the patent governors and regula-
tors step in.
But the consumer can regulate that
just as well without governor by turn
ing the gas partially off at his meter I'M
til he gets stream just about adequate
to the number Of lights he uses. 1t
makes the light steady, and saves about
90 10 25 per cent. of gas to the consumer.
l have done it for many years, and found
it TO work just about as well az patent
governor"

Dress Making for Stout Figures.

One rule must never be forgotten It is
necessary that all lines should be run
downward; perpendicular lines must be
preferred to horizontal ones. Hip trim
mings must be avoided, but a box plat at
the side, or rather below the side plat at
the back of the bodice, will take away from
the size and breaks the line where the
back begins. The basque should be long,
without any appearance of drapery. A
princess cut of gown, skillfully managed,
IS to be recommended, and in planning any
skirt care must be taken to avoid dividing
the width of the skirt into visible portions
by the trimming.
Never should a short wasted bodice be
adopted. The waist should be as long as
possible. Revers and bracelike additions
on the bodice take from the width. When
necks are short, the sleeves should not be
too high on the shoulders, nor, indeed.
should any more trimming there than can
possibly be avoided be introduced, and
high shouldered capes of every kind are to
be tabooed. Sleeves of different material
from the bodice greatly reduce the appar-
ent size of the wearer. Plain materials
may be made to have the diminishing effect
of perpendicular stripes by introducing
close set rows of braid on the front breadth,
and side trimmings of the kind in panels
when judiciously placed also tend to re-
duce the size.

Holland Dykes Along the Allegheny.

1t is too late now TO talk of street
grades raised above high water level in
Pittsburg and Allegheny. 1t is hardly
worth while to talk about system of
reservoirs to collect and hold the water
which pours down the hill and mountain
side to the Allegheny and Monongahela.
Before that could be done this genera
ton would be long gathered 10 its ia
thers. But is it not worth while to talk
Of some possible means of saving these
cities from the frequently recurring
losses by the foods?
Count up, however roughly, the losses
in various forms due 70 this flood and
the total would go far beyond the ex-
pense of dyke or any similar means to
confne high waters to the natural course
of the river. 1t should be remembered
that the foods viii be increased m vol

"Old Hutch" after returning to Chicago
from brief but very cratic trip. He
caused a sensation recently on the Chicago
board of trade by failing TO appear and
cover his deals. 1t was announced that
his liabilities amounted to So, coo, 600 or
8, 100000, but his son stated that he was
perfectly solvent, and restored confidence to
market inclined to slump. "Old Hutch"
whose eccentricities have given his rela-
tives great concern of late, disappeared in
tho ordinary fashion. He bought ticket
for Pensacola, Fla, but got no farther than
Evansville, Ind, where he was met by an
agent of his family and induced to go home.
Two or three years ago he was one of the
boldest spectators on the board. The
market depended ON his whims, and he
ruled it with rod of iron. AIe is New
Highlander by birth. He went west in 1850
and started general merchandise business
in Milwaukee. Then he became enamored
of wheat speculation and entered the COM
mission business in Chicago. After run
ming the famous corner in wheat in 1887 his
powers began to fade. He made wild specu-
lations. and fearful Of the worst his family
induced him to settle $500, 600 on his wife
and daughter. Since then bis mental facul-
ties have been hazy at times, and he has
not been regarded as strictly accountable
for his actions.
"Old Hutch" was the life and cheer of
the Century club, combination of choice
spirits of the Chicago board of trade, who
delighted in poker and oldtime cookery.
He did the marketing and cooking, and was
especially strong on rum omelettes. When
ever he took fancy to man he invited
him to the Century and made him rum
omelette

THE NEWEST PARIS BoNNETs.

Is very soft and pretty, and will be much
worn by blondes Anemone and v;eux
rose suit dark skin wonderfully well.
A dash of soft color in bonnet will often
make plain face quite attractive.
A bonnet is considered the correct thing
for a matron to wear at church, 1t is more
sedate and dignifed than hat. Many OF
the newest bonnets are designed to be
worn with the hair dressed in the Greek
style These are oval in shape and larger
than those of last season. Gold trimming
seems TO be as fashionable as ever 1t looks
well used in conjunction with dark colored
velvet or black lace.
We illustrate two recently imported
French bonnets. One of them is formed of
two jet bandeaux bordered by vandykes of
Jet; the back forming a jet coronet. A
black lace cockscomb crown and narrow
velvet strings complete this stylish bon
net. The remaining bonnet is of black lace,
with bandeau studded with jewels. Chry-
santhemums yelled with black lace deco
rate the front of the bonnet, and there is a
tuft of similar flowers at the back of the
crown.
Flowers are arranged with exquisite taste
on hats. Picturesque hats made of rush or
crochet straw are decorated with trails,
wreaths and punches of spring blossoms.
The flowers are scarcely ever mixed with
lace or ribbon. A pretty black hat with a
crown of gold tinsel is trimmed simply
with a trail of wild anemones. The MILL
ners are using tiny gold pins in place of
stitches. One rather remarkable black hat
trimmed with lace is ornamented with a
myriad of little pins. Apricot is the color
most affected by brunettes just now.

Features of tn w Gowns.

Many of the new gowns have the waist
hnd skirt in one piece, fashion favored by
Felix for dresses of crepon, India silk and
crepe de Chine. Some of these pretty gowns
kre fastened in the back, others have their
Fastening concealed under full drapery in
Front. The fashion continues of making
Elaborate bodices with large sleeves and
Fery simple skirts. The Louis Treize coat,
with skirt only in the back, is added to the
popular Louis Quatorze and Louis Quinze
pats. The becoming corselet is on some
Il the most costly new gowns.
Sleeves are very long, with much fullness
1t the top, falling in soft folds on the outer
rm; they are tapered to the wrist and
banded with rows of trimming almost to
he elbow. or else they have only a slight
rill dropping low on the hand. The straight
|eeve full at the top and dropping below
elbow over close sleeve or on deep
ifs is on some of the handsomest gowns.
utton-leg sleeves are restored to the favor
ey had lost of late. CLEOPATRA laces

A Glance at London Society.

Take the vast London society. 1t is a
stifnecked dress parade in which one
meets ones best friend once fortnight
and strangers in proportion. People
never know each other well and are al
most suspicious of those they do know.
Invitations are sent out from one to two
months ahead and people come and go
without making visible impression, and
there is none of that merry familiarity
which makes American life so enjoy
able.
a dinner is set affair, with no gen.
eral conversation and total absence Of
what the French call esprit; in fact,
most of the Englishman's pleasures are
of the macintosh and umbrella kind
The Londoner is always guarded and
suspicious of the stranger, and | don't
wonder, considering some Of the Arneri-
cans he has had showed upon him. But.
AFTER all, there are too many people IL

How Tea Is Carried In Thibet.

The packages of tea, each about four
feet long, six inches broad and three to
four thick, and weighing from seven
teen to twenty-three pounds, are placed
horizontally one above the other, the
upper ones projecting SO as to come
over the porter's head. They are
held tightly together by coir ropes and
little bamboo stakes; straps, also of
plated coir ropes, pass over the porter's
shoulders, while little string fastened
to the top of the load helps to balance
the huge structure, which it requires
more knack than strength to carry, for
its weight must bear on all the back and
only slightly On the shoulders.
In their hands the porters carry a
short crutch, which they place under
the load when they wish to rest without
removing it from their backs. The av-
erage load is nine packages, or from 100
to 200 pounds, but passed a number Of
men carrying seventeen, and one had
twenty-one. A man, | was told, had 4
few years ago brought an iron safe
weighing 400 pounds for Mgr. Biet from
Ya-chou to Ta-chien-lu in twenty-five
days. Old or decrepit people commonly
travel along. this road borne on the
backs of porters. Many of the women
porters carried seven packages of tea,
nearly 200 pounds, and children of five
and six trudged on behind their parents
with one or two.
The price paid for the work is twenty
tael cents about twenty-five cents
package, and it takes about seventeen
days to make the trip from Ya-chou. So
far as my knowledge goes, there are 10
porters in any other part of the world
who carry such weights as these Ya-chou
tea coolies; and, strange as it may ap-
pear, they are not very muscular, and
over half of them are confirmed opium
smokers. Rockhill In Cent

At last it dawned upon the collective
mind of the Copperhead company that
their superintendent, the Enthusiast, was
digging too much and getting down too
little. They accepted his resignation 1t
mattered little to him, for by this time
his mind was overwhelmed by another
stupendous mining scheme, to which the
Copperhead was barely printing. He
had the happy talent of living IN these
golden visions which, - him, were per-
feet realities. He held the philosophy
that the idea, the hope. the anticipation
Of a thing is sometimes more "the thing"
than the thing itself
The Enthusiasts rich mines lay prin-
cipally in his head, but his belief in
them gave him as much pleasure as if
they really existed. 1t was like marry
ing. sometimes. The long sought for,
longed for, wished for wife or husband
turns out, as reality, a very different
being from what he or she was deemed
while in process of being longed and
sought for. The long longed for may
have been estimated an angel. The
angel, after wedlock, may prove to have
been a myth. The reality may be a
devil, or within few shades or degrees
of a devil.
So the shaft was sunk, as they said,
properly and scientifically, by the new
superintendent. The rock got harder as
we went down, the ore less, the vein
narrower, the quantity of water greater,
the progress slower, the weekly expenses
first doubled and then trebled, the stock
became less coveted, and as to reputed
value, reached that fatal dead level
which really means that it is on its down
ward descent. The shareholders faces
became longer and longer at their weekly
Sunday afternoon meetings in the So
nora court house.
The Copperhead claim and Copperhead
city subsidized quietly. The shareholders
became tired of mining for coin to pay
assessments out of their own pockets.
They came at last to doubt the ever glow
ing, hopeful assertion of the Enthusiast
that from indications he knew the ''ore
was forming" The inevitable came.
Copperhead city was deserted by its hu-
man inhabitants. The skunk, the snake,
the squirrel, the woodpecker and the
buzzard came again into full possession,
and l bitterly regretted that had not
sold more at ten dollars foot when l
found the stock a drug at ten cents.
