The tail OF woman's gown is the great
eat mischief breeder ever introduced into
the feminine world. Indeed, it is posi-
tive1y pathetic to note the misery which
t. fashionable appendage has meted out
es ,n to fair ones.
"Why not take stand against this par
ticular piece OF folly7" some one asks.
Yes, but who would dare? For one might

but nleekly accepts for her promenade

ness out of harms way" is the next sug-
gcstion.
No, indeed, not il its mistress knows
herself. She is cleverly awake to the fact
that such clumsy management would COM
pletely destroy the effectiveness Of her
make up.
Let US be devoutly thankful that the
woman who has adopted this sweeping bit
Of finery caunot, SO long as the sun shines,
give it a rise in the world. for have yet to

day where you can watch results. Not one
woman in a hundred will paxs muster. An
energetic little twitch swirls the draperies

But no; there goes q refractory yard Of

with swish aud n dabble is eagerly gath

HOU USES FALL DOWN AND
PEOPLE RUN WILD.
The Government Commissioners
Visit the Scene and Condemn
Three FOurths of the
Houses Standing.
(By Cable).

ROME, June S.-The cities of
Verona and Mantua were shaken
by an earthquake. Many houses
were damaged. An invalid lady
was so badly frightened by the shock
that she died.
Lombardy, Venetia, and part of
Tuscany were visited early this
morning by repeated shocks. The
worst shocks occurred about
o'clock in the morning. Shocks
were also felt in Venice and Milan.
ROME, June 8.-A government
commission which was promptly
despatched to the districts visited by
the earthquake shocks of yesterday
have begun their investigations. At
Badiacalevera and Tregnanzo, the
commission condemned three
fourths of the houses which are still
left standing. The subteraneous
rumblings followed by heavy earth
/ NutthC SIlOChS COI1tlI1ltc anu Tie
alarmed inhabitants have encamped
in tents hurriedly pitched in the
fields away from the reach of falling
debris.
The centre of the disturbance
was at Verona. A subterranean
noise was heard like the roar of ar
tillery, which was followed by three
strong shocks. The inhabitants
rushed into the streets in terror.
At Marcenigo three persons were
killed, and at Badia, Calavena,
seventeen were badly injured by

(By Gable J

LONDON, June SIN the House
Of Lords to-day Lord Salisbury, in
moving a second reading of the bill
relating to Behring sea; made a
sympathetic reference to the death
of Sir John Macdonald. He said
the bill was to enable England to
be free to act on the subject of
arbitration and provided for giving
compensation where there should
be any real loss through England's
action. The governmdnet did not
admit liability for the usual COM
pensation. He believed Russia to
be four able to arbitration. The bill
was read second and third time
and passed.
