BY slow degrees the gossips had re-
turned to the village street. where they
now broke up into groups, standing
about at well-knOWn corners. their
budget Of gossip augmented. not dimin-

Suddenly some one less busy than the
rest deserted a figure approaching,
nay. close upon the group nearest the

street seemed TO preserve an attitude

in village, an how, at the bottom.
there was found little skeleton; an

ways the pool, and had that splash in
my ears, till one day | put my money
together, an, not saying q word to q

| saw was the man on the other side as

"A magistrate was passing; he COM

When the turnkey entered few

Mems Collars, Ties and Vests.
Il never could get a W0mau'a fl1mmerv
OF rIooons and laces to look well about
my neck and shoulders, so | sought relief
in mans high collar and four IN hand
scarf" said Mis- tombstone Bennett of
the Jane company, on her arrival at Chi
cage recently.
There was to me-, she continued, "a
dressiness in masculine neckwear that
feminine bow knots and what-nots could
not approach. | am credited with being
the first Of my sex to start the fad, but
| was not concious how far | had gone
until | next adopted the vest and coat
combination of the leige lords-shere
paused and have since rested in my So
called dress revolution. But for the
extreme comfort and artistic effect that
realized in my vests and getaways, |
would have discarded then and returned
to the conventional straight-iacket styles
with which | was afflicted before. The
storm that fashion votarios raised about
my ears, after my debut il vest array
took every form of misconstruction, but |
trusted to time to set me Alright. | knew
that woman as rule were like sheep,
ready to follow every drift of fashion
tide without a thought Of the consequences
to themselves. | knew again that there
we're women who would, in the mad race
Of some new style, struggle and scramble
and snatch to get to the fore and lead
the pelimell in a new chase after another
craze in another direction. And my con-
victions have been repeatedly upheld in
the interval. Why look at the latest that
my sex are guilty of mean the appro-
pratiation Of poor mans renders-to
ne the ugliest idea possible, totally at
variance with the graceful curves and
folds of the natty vest and coat. The on
alarm that this absurd sus pender move
ment occasions ne is that the men may
take to wearing their supportabies eX-
posed in the same way. Bat | feel that
the length Of the average mans coatt tails
will be a preventive against the introduc-
tion to the pubic eye Of his properly con-
cealed braces.
Nothing was further from my mind
than the sensation which my departure in
costume created. ! had consulted my own
tastes in the ma ter, and being well con-
tented with the freedom Of movement that
the new attire vouchsafed me, | braved
the talk and quite survived. Perhaps,
had | been III private life, instead of an
actress, my fad might have passed away,
into oblivian, unwept, unsung. It was
unfortunate for fashions guiding spirit
that it remained for meek young actress,
then getting a salary Of but $40 per week,
to unwjttingly steal a march on it.
While the whole business has amused me
all along, have not been proud of the
distinction, especially when the evolution
has dragged forth the unpicturesque
suspender from its well-chosen OBSCURE

FRICk AT HIS DESK.
The Carnegie Chairman Back In the
Harness


PIrTsBURe, Pa, Aug. 5.-Chairman
Frick, of the Carnegie Steel COM
pany, assumed active control again
this morning. He reached his
Office at 1890 o'clock, and en-
gagged with his accustomed energies In
his business and as quietly as ifyester-
day he had been at his desk instead Of
attending the funeral of his infant
child. There was great surprise in
the office. Excepting Secretary Love
Joy no one knew that he was COM
ing down town for a week at least
There was general rejoicing among
the employees from the elevator boy up
to the chief officials. As soon as Mr..
Prick reached the building he went
into his private room, lighted cigar,
asked that the heads of the depart
ments report to him as usual and then
buried himself in the morning mail.
Mr.. Prick had pleasant greeting
for young Fortney, who displayed
great courage in selling Berl1man
while the latter was endeavoring to
escape after having shot and stabbed
Prick and Leishman. The chairman
warmly thanked the young man. Up
In the Office he pleasantly greeted
each clerk with CHEEKY "Good-morn-
ing" When his presence became
known the employees on the other floors
came down to pay their respects.

HASTEN HOME RULE.
The Irish Members Are Confident of
Victory.

LONDON, Aug. 6.-The series of con-
Irish party and Mr.. Gladstone has def
nitely resulted in such degree of
mutual confidence as promises to
expedite greatly the advent of homo
rule in Ireland. The acceptance
by Mr.. John Morley of the post
Of Chief Secretary for Ireland was
point upon which the chiefs of the
McCarthyite faction laid considerable
stress. Mr.. 1.orley himself was re-
luctant to accept the Secretaryship,
desiring some other post in the Cabi-
net which would impose upon him less
arduous duties, and only agreed to &C
cept it when : was represented to him
by Mr.. Gladstone that no other Minis
ter would so fully command the sup
port of the Irish members of Parlia-
ment.
In an interview Mr.. John Dillon ex-
pressed the satisfaction of the Irish
party at the prospect of Mr.. Morley
holding the post during the critical
period in the progress of the home rule
JILL hSACII Ing W JIG lS pOl u pI1hGcO
in some of the English papers that GER
tain Irish members might take office
under Mr.. Morley Mr.. Dillon said that
such thing was next to impossible.
No member of the party, he declared,
would dare to accept place under any
English government.
When asked whether he could COM
municate what notifications Mr.. Glad
stone has made in his home rule bill,
Mr.. Dillon replied that he was not at
liberty to say anything except that
the bill is likely to be one that Mr..
Parnell would have accepted, adding:
owe will not take anything less. Mr..
Gladstone knows that our position in
the matter is definite and infexible.
He has pledged himself to place home
rule in front Of all other measures and
to keep it there until it is passed. l
believe we can rely upon his intention
to do So"

motherhood, with out one pulse of sor-

ENGLAND CAN HAVE 1T.
Wash ington Auth critics Not Intereste,
In the Taking of johnson Island.

Washington Auth critics Not Interested
In the Taking of johnson Island.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-The report
that the British government has taken
formal possession of Johnson island in
the Pacific ocean does not excite much
interest in official circles for the reason
that the island is Of no value for STRAIT
egic purposes, and because the supply OF
guano is practically exhausted. At the
Department of State it is said that the
United States has exercised jurisdic-
tional right over the island since 1858,
when an American guano company
landed a party thereon and occupied it.
Territorial jurisdiction, however, has
never been claimed by the United
States, and the island has never been
annexed. The United States would
exert it's jurisdictional rights over the
island to protect the Guano company
in pursuit of it's business, but it is said
there would be no conflict with terri
toriai jurisdiction set forward by any
other government.

The Development of the Thoroughbred is
Entirely the Work of Man.

In so far as a creature endowed with
life can owe existence to human hands,
the race horse may be said to be man
made. Horses were an important factor
in the early nomadic life, and were cheish-
ed by their owners, and the progress of
civilization, so far from breaking this
