They were peoples names that had gone
down with the flood, which was just hat he
said they were; and his story was fully ap-
preciated and pointed to with pride after
ward. One cannot be too careful about facts
in this literary business.
Trip With a Bicvcl-.
Having thus shown where stand on the
question of veracity will proceed with my
simple story OF how Maude CHANGED cars at
Utica Maude was going up to Gravesville
in the northern part OF this State for two
weeks visit She was to take the o'clock
train from the Grand Central depot She
was to be accompanied by a very
dear friend whom I will call Jen-
ME, and by her brand-new nickel
plated blcvcle which wa, to astonish the
natives of Gravesville. Maude planned it
all out to have Jennie, and the bicvcle and
me at the depot on time. She can't bear to
be hurried at the last minute when she is to
make a tourney. l offered TO bet her the
price of two weeks board in GAINESVILLE
that if any one of us four was late at the
depot it would not be Jennie nor me nor
the bicycle, but she declined to rob me on
so easy wager. =,
The janitor's boy, Tom, was to ride the
bicvcle to the depot; was to come up from
the Office, and Jennie vas to come over from
BROOKLYN. Tom and I arrived at $3.50;
Jennie appeared at 1858, and Maud was
not there at 3:5S This did not sur
prise me a all. Every deep student
of human nature must have observed
that when q woman carefully guards

Costume of the Fisherwoman.
In order to be q fsherwoman with any
kind of success your costume must be es-
peciallv adapted to the sport Your dress
should be very short, not much below your
knees, and the blouse waist should be easy,
with sleeves that will roll up to the shoul-
der. This costume should be all woolen
that will stand rain and sun. Good serge
or flannel of dark blue or gray color is the
most serriceable. No undersklrts should be
worn, but instead a pair OF full Turkish
knickeTbocaers of the same material as
the dress. Long wooden stockings and
hobnail boots o. caltskin, together with
felt hat that can be trimmed with leaders
and mGlti-colored trout flies OF iaunty
Tam O'Shenter, comprise a sensible cos
tune. Il you object to getting your feet
wet, or to wading the streams to any great
extent, a pair of waterproof leggirgs or
rubber boots may be worn, aud III some o.

A visiting Englishman wondered the
other evening that in copying English no
tions we did not copy the good ones in
stead of many that were distinctly frowned
upon by the better class OF English people.
To say thing is English is enough to make
it valuable precedent with a large number
of Americans, yet we know that many So
called Americanisms, held up to ridicule by
our cousins across tine water, are either un-
heard of here or exist under equally deri-
sive protest. Another suggestive remark
by the same man was that the stiff, jerky,
so-called English shake was not form" in
the best English society. 'It may exist"
said he, sin the Prince of Wales set, but it
does not in that OF the Princess of Wales"
Which is . line OF demarcation which eager
Anglo-maniacs often lose sight of.
Sunburn is not usually considered . per-
manent aiiment, but q New York woman
has discovered that it is. During some
water evolutions last summer she sat on
grand stand tor several hours with her face
exposed TO the sun and wind, except the

the idea of trusting me with anything 90
important might enter the heads ofstrangers,
but never that of nv wife. When Maude

It seemed necessary to send the bicycle to
Gravesville by express. but after had put

hour later which overlook hers at Utica. If

Maude and Jennie decided to sit up till they

out for the bicycle. Having so decided, of
course they went to bed at 10 o'clock. Ii
they had only firmly resolved to go to bed,

up. Since a woman is certsin to change her

glish language.

shelter Of q parasol. The result was severe
sunburn, which, on the nose, failed to yield
to all known remedies. Alter fortnight
physician was consulted and the discovery
made that the burn was so deep that it was
liable never to be entirely effaced. A year
has gone by with little apparent lessening
of the redness, to the most justifiable
chagrin of a very pretty woman. The COM
bination of sun and water is peculiarly try
ing, as all yachting people know, and it is
usual with women on cruises to take various
means to protect their compilations, notably
that of chalking the face all over with LUMP
magnesia. "Present ugliness for future
beauty" as a Young woman prefaced such
proceeding lately, being their motto.
A simple and tasteful arrangement of a
double door space as noticed the other
day in country house. The fish net drapery,
which comes now in various art shades, was
the material used, and a few yards with
cord and tsssel and three Japanese fans
open and tied with straight bows Of ribbon,
arranged in the manner indicated in the
sketch, wrought a very successful effect. In
the same room two Japanese umbrellas in
tones OF grav were suspended, one above the
other, in the corner at the angle of the two
walls at the left OF the doorway decorated
as described. The umbrellas hung bottoms
down like inverted mushrooms, tipped to
show their discs of soft color Beneath AMI
across the corner stood 6-o'clock-tea
table of white enamel finish, with cloth
worked with bunch of black-eyed Susans
and the natural flowers in an old blue china
bowl tor the touch OF color. All the ae-
were inexpensive, but exceedingly
pretty and tasteful.

The Railroad to Castle to BE
Built From That City.

The news reached Castle Tues
day last by telephone that the con-
tract had been let for the building
and completing Of the Helena &
Castle railroad this year from the
capital city as far as the mouth Of
the tunnel, that will pierce the
Belt range at the head of White S
gulch. The Rocky Mountain IIus-
bandman says "tl,at the other por-
tions of the road between that place
and Castle will also be graded.
Work will also begin on the tunnel
soon after dirt is broken on the line
at Helena, and by the time there is
daylight through the hill, all the
rest of the road will be in readiness
for the iron, and it will oaly take a
few weeks work to complete the
line. Twelve months will probably
be consumed in boring the tunnel
and fifteen or sixteen months in fin
ishing the road. It will not be
under the control Of any other rail
road corporation. but is an indie
pendent concern, and will be owned
and controlled bv half a dozen Bal
timore and Philadelphia capitalists.
Several months ago Gen. Haven
went over the proposed route and
made an estimate, which was re-
garded very low, but the survey
which was completed Tuesday,
proves that it will cost very much
less than he estimated that it
would. L will, in fact be the
cheapest railroad for its length in
