States will be interesting:

Advice for Home Dressm aisprs,

When the amateur dressmaker starts
ON her devious way, she goes forth with
. good deal OF courage, but neglects TO
put her armor on. To be exact, she
knows that she is undertaking difficult
thing, but she hopes it will como out all
right and trusts TO her luck to pull her
through; of foresight she has little or
none. Now, homo dressmaking is of all
things the most tiresome if the first steps
are wrong. Let us therefore consider
how the amateur who wishes to mako
for herself successful waist from \
paper pattern should set about it,
First, don't use just any pattern you
may happen to have. If you are to at
tain anything like a moderate degree Of
success, the pattern should be at the
start as nearly correct as possible. Now
IL is very well known that when paper
patterns are cut to size, they are drafted
to the size Of bust and waist measure
alone, all tho other measures bearing @
certain average proportion.
Good drafters are thoroughly ac
Quainted with the average proportion
and such people as have no difficulty in
buying ready made jackets to fit them
will find no difficulty with bough,
pattern of proper bust measure. In order
to obtain this proper bust measure, draw
tho tape between tho shoulder blades
and above the bust, across the chest.
Tho measurement usually denominated
''tho bust measure" should more proper
ly DO termed "chest measure" Thu
tape should be drawn quite tight, to give
the proper size.--Loisure Hours.

TIE POLL TAX,

The Republican mask is torn OFF by the
Rhode Island Democrat in tho following
manner: There is another unjust law
that will require erasion by the Demo-
cratic blue pencil. The Republicans did
not want TO pass the Bourn amendment.
The rapid growth OF the registry vote
frightened them into accepting it. 1t was
clear case of intimidation. They showed
their love for the dear people-the dear
common people-when they framed the
statutory provisions by which the poll tax
was put in force.
The act they passed provides that IL the
poll tax payer does not come forward with
his dollar within a short time-thirty
days, we believe-aiter he is notified Of
his Indebtedness, he shall be taken to
Jail. 1t makes no difference if the man is
out Of work at the time. He must either
pay his tax, go TO the authorities and pro-
claim himself a pauper, or go to Jail. This
is the law, whether 1t is enforced or not,
and it shows the contemptuous disregard
which the Republican party msnifests Cor
the rights and the feelings Of the common
people.
Property taxpayers have all the time
necessary in which to pay their taxes, and
they cannot be jailed if they do not pay
them at all. This discrimination is un-
American, and this outrageous law was
passed one hundred and twelve years after
the divine truth that "all men are Great
ed free and equal" was made our national
octrins.

4 pic.ur. of the Exposition.

Ii il were sought to express in one
phrase the expectations Of those who are
planning the Columbian exposition of
1898 in Chicago, it could best be done by
calling it Venetian spectacle. In 81
that governs its best effects, as IL Will
burst upon the vision OF the multitude,
It will suggest Venice. Especially at
night will it call to mind what the poetic
comprehension conceiyes that Venice
might appear if she were in gala attire,
pnd her beauties, seen under a flood OF
electric light, were effectively concen-
trated along two miles of the Adriatic
shore.
| The beautiful waters Of the system Of
lagoons pass every ono Of the main
buildings, and sll but surround some OF
them. On their surfaces al the pal
aces will be reflected, and at night the
water will duplicate the full brilliancy
of this. the second Of the worlds ex-
positions which electricity has rendered
viewable after dark. The water itself,
by the way, will be shot with brilliant
light by scores Of electric lamps placed
in its depths. A hundred gondolas
brought from Venice will loaf luxurious
ly along these liquid avenues, to be dis
tanced contemptuously by a myriad OF
swift launches.
Their motions ON the waters surface
will but weakly initiate the fast gliding
artificial denizens of the deep which
skilled electricians plan TO send hither
and thither by means Of delicate ma
chinery urged by power stored in the
bodies OF the toys. At night, when the
eyes Of these submarine monsters and
beauties are lighted by electricity, they
will odd strange feature TO the gen
aral spectacle. le.--Julian Ralph in Har-

THE DECISION.

The decision of the Supreme Court or
the quo warranto case sets at rest al
doubt as to the legality of the last Mayor
atty election. The Court, in short, says
the people had sufficient notice and 1t IL
not hard to discover between the lines 9
sound rebuke TO the petitioners.
The Court says: at may be only imag.
ined that after three contested elections
which resulted in failure TO elect, polit-
ical feeling and enthusiasm would be at
a high pitch and that electors OF every
shade of opinion would be on the alert
an 4 that therefore less notice than that
prescribed by section IA would amply suf-
fiee to obtain full expression OF the peo-
ple's will. As the only purpose OF giving
notice is to obtain such an expression, we
are not prepared to hold that II it should
be made TO appear by return Oh the writ
that the electors had full knowledge OF
the election held on December s, 1891, and
that full expression Of the popular will
had been thereby obtained, that the elec-
tion SO held was void, Notwithstanding
the fact that the prescribed notice was
not given"
The Court could not have been more
plain, or have used language more strong.

THE SEQUEL.

Tho thinking people are now asking
themselves who are the men responsible
for all the political uproar and useless ex-
citement which Saturday ended just as il
began-in a majority OF the voters being
sustained. II has caused those who are In
the employ of the city much trouble and
worry and has been quite expensive to th'
taxpayers in many ways. As result, the
people are putting the blame just where II
beIongs-on the shoulders of those who
are endeavoring to fssten fat contracts on
the city, and also upon a few misguided
people who have played into the hands oil
these schemers. We 90 not blame them
for fighting but they ought to know when
they ale licked.

Each of the quartette has n displacement

there the similarity to some extent

that have been made in naval architec-
ture since the Boston and Atlanta were
built. Where the latter can make but
fifteen knots an hour the Raleigh and
the Cincinnati are expected to make
nineteen knots Their coaling capacity
will also be much greater, thus enab-
ling them to make longer trips without
rcfilling their bunlsers. Their batteries
will be more effective in that they will
carry a larger armament which is better
