An Astor Daughter-in-Law.

The sudden death of William Astor COM
pletely prostrates his young daughter-in-
law, Mrs. John Jacob Astor, III. Be-
tween the two existed warm attachment
not to be gauged by her brief connection
with the family. Mrs Astor is also ten
derby fond of the young wife of her only
son, which, in the case of parents to whom a
quartet of daughters has been youohsafed,
is the more remarkable.

season. The Presidents wife was in white
satin, covered with embroidery in high re-
lief The train of black velvet, lined with
white satin, which fell from the shoulders
increased the popularity of the costume.
The only thing worth mentioning after this
would be the dress worn bv Queen Isabella
at a musical soiree at her hotel. It was of
white satin, embroidered with genuine
pearls, and the train, also falling from the
shoulders, was lined with straw-colored silk
brocade.
What the Spring Has Brought.
The spring month brought US an entirely
new style of dress for small dinner and
1heater parties; namely, the charming, high,
tight-ftting jaquettes Of light green or
mauye colored silk trimmed with lace, with
full upper sleeves and broad lace cuffs
reaching to the elbows. The silk skirt is
plain and of different color generally
dark to the jaquette.
1t is not fashionable in Paris for ladies
that follow a profession to dress according
ly. On the contrary, genuine Parisienne,
whether a paintress at her easel, a blue
stocking at her writing desk or student in
the lecture room of the academy, always
dresses like lady and after the latest
fashion.
Some days ago attended the 'jour" of
lady of fashion. Among the guests was a
young lady whose tasteful dress-though
somewhat strong in color-attracted general
attention. The skirt of green Pekin moiree
had at the bottom six-inch border of
green and yellow striped satin. The bodice,
half hidden by a carmine velvet shoulder
cape, embroidered with red pearls and lined
with red satin, was trimmed in the same
fashion. Her hat was of folded white cloth,
embellished with gold brocade. I also OBJ
served that the till now five customary
pleats, which held the dress together in the
back, had dwindled to two After the
lady's departure 1 was told that she was a

A Question of Ownership.

Andrew Carnegie, in recent lecture
to young men, said that it was all non
sense about the rich growing rich, and
that the fortunes of the well off were
usually fourfold overestimated. That
one of the causes that prevented the
growth of great individual fortunes was
the fact that large portion Of the stock
of large corporations was generally
owned by people of comparatively small
means.
The New York Central railway in this state,
between New York and Buffalo alone, for in
stance, is owned by more than 10000 people.
The Pennsylvania railroad between Philadel-
phia ard Pittsburg is owned by greater
number than it employs. So it is with the en-
tire railway systems Of the world. Our banks
are owned by thousands Of shareholders.
This talk of Carnegie's sounds all very
well, but how is it in actual practice. as
regards the institutions he refers to?
Simply that the lions share of the profit
and power is engrossed by cliques who
band themselves together for that pur
pose These cliques first divide among
themselves all the offices. and as they
have the naming of their own salaries
they take good care that they are not
poorly paid for their services; next. as
their oh ject is not so much to produce
profit fer the ordinary shareholder. as
to feather sill more their own nests.

In this pursuit after an indirect profit
is it not usual thing 20 see railroad Of

Now Is the Time to Rally the Hosts OF
the People for Battle Royal.
The harvest is ripe. and now is the
time to reap.
The people were never as ready and
anxious to break away from the two old
parties as they are today. There is no
genuine interest whatever taken III the
s'tariff" nonsense. 1t is regarded by all
sensible men as a sham and fraud.
1t is dog fight over bone-and
bone without any meat on it at that!
The "tariff" will not change $4,000
votes in the whole United States.
A thigh tariff" Democrat is not going
to abandon his party, for he knows per-
fectly well that the free trade" cry has
no significance in it whatever.
The free trade" Republican is not go
ing to leave the G. o. p. simply because
his platform demands protection, for
he too knows that the cry Of "high
tariff" is humbug.
The masses are interested in the ques-
ton of prices for their products, the rate
of wages, the hours Of labor, the mort
gage on the home, the unpaid taxes, the
next months rent. a house to live in,
coal for the winter, bread for the chill
dren, land for the landless, homes for
the homeless!
In comparison with these the so called
tariff question is bag of chaff.
The people are sick and tired of being
fooled and humbugged. They want a
change-and change from something
besides jumping from one old party fry
ing pan into another old party fire!
There is only a little over four months
time in which to finish the fight. It be-
hooves every man who loves the cause
to make every day count between now
and election.
There are thousands of towns, and
hundreds Of counties which will give

Indiana in Line of Battle.

There were 720 accredited delegates in
the Peoples party convention Of lndi-
ana, and the Republican and Democratic
papers of indianapolis agreed that it
looked like very formidable movement
was taking root in their midst. The
convention nominated full state and
electoral ticket and selected delegates to
the Omaha convention. In an editorial
anent the convention The Monochrome
list says:
Our brethren throughout the nation
may rest assured that Indiana is in line
of battle. The leaders of both old par
ties are very much concerned, doubling
whereunto this thing will grow. 1t is
difficult even ior its friends to estimate
it. But it is moving to the front. The
people are under it. The salvation Of
the country depends upon it. Let every

Powderly Will Be There.

There is great work ahead; plat
form is erected; it is massive piece of
workmanship, and is so constructed that
to strengthen the nation it should be
placed in Washington, where our law
makers should stand on it. Neither the
Democratic nor Republican parties will
help transport it to Washington, for
they have refused to give it transporta-
ton on their railroads, and the people
are leaving their work in field and shop
to help push this platform on to Wash
ington. The sidewalks are too narrow,
and to land it at the capital we must all
walk in the middle of the road. When
the candidates for president and vice
president are nominated on the st.
Louis platform, expect to be found
just behind them and right in the mid
die of the road.-T. V. Powderly IL

The grand and noble order of the ALI
ance was never more prosperous than 1t

The traitors who went into the organi-

That class will no longer hinder the
onward march of reform and justice ad-
vocated by the honest Alliance men Of
this entire country.
Then there is another class that went
into the order for the purpose of using
it and failed This set of self seekers
have also dropped out, and now the true
blue Alliance men are marching to-
gether in solid phalanx for relief, for
equal legislation and equal favors to all

their defeat. if they will only continue

firm in the fight, if we will only be true
to ourselves and true to our families

Finest Carpets in the World.

Irnean to make pilgrimage to Fon-
Uainbleau in order to see two wonderful
carpets which have been transferred to
the palace by the presidents orders, and
which are said to be the most superb
articles of the kind in the world. They
were ordered by Napoleon Ill at the
Gobe!in 1nanufactory in 1868. They are
of colossal dimensions, one being nearly
thirty feet square, while the other is
eleven yards long and ten yards wide.
1t took ten years to complete them,
and once finished their extraordinary
size caused them 30 be packed away in
the storehouse of Les Gobelins, whence
they were not extracted even to be ex-
hibited at the exhl billions of 1878 and
1880 They are the finest articles of the
kind that have been produced for the
French government since Louis XIV Or
dered ''ninety-three carpets for cere-
monies and festivals" to be manufac-
tured at La Savonnerie for the great
bathrooms and reception rooms of the
Louvre and of Versailles.
The smaller of the two, which has a
yellow ground, is set down in the in
ventory as being worth $4,000, the
larger, the ground Of which is black,
being estimated at $4,000, though the
real value of each is stated to be at
least double.-Paris Letter.

prietors of between thirty-hve and forty
of the most prosperous gold and silver
mines in this country are known to have
come to just such ends. Out OF the
forty or less twelve were shot or stabbed
to death in saloon or other broils, five
committed suicide, three were engulfed
by landslides. five turned murderers or
robbers and were caught and executed
in various ways, one fell into a boiling
spring and bad the flesh literally stewed
from his bones, while the others have
disappeared and no one knows what ever
became of them.
George Fl. Fryer, once the millionaire
proprietor of the Fryer Hill mine, COM
mitted suicide in Denver after spending
the last nickel between himself and star
vation. The discoverer of the great STAN
dard mine. in California was caught and
swallowed up in an avalanche; Colonel
Story was killed by Indians; William
Fairweather OF the famous Alder
Gulch mine, died with the 'frenzied
horrors" after continuous two years
debauch. Farrell of Meadow Lake
died with a terrible disease in a San
Francisco hospital. The owner OF that
great mine, the Homestake, became a
