EoMEN WHO DRESS WELL.

The French woman excels all other
women in her attention to the details Of
dress. She will live on one meal day,
if necoI,ary,to save the money to always
have neat shoes and gloves. Her dress
may be of cheap material, but no dirt
spots are allowed to remain en- it, no
buttons left to dan9le for want Of a
timely thread, and she never wears shah
by shoes or gloves.
A New Yorker, just home from
abroad, attended a tea dressed in s
Pariaiau gown and bonnet. She de-
stroysd the whole effect of her costume
BY wearing pair Of shoes that looked
as veatherwom aud shabby as a COB
bler's sign. She was. not brilliant
enough to distract attention from her
clothes.
Any woman can ill afford to wear
shabby shoes and gloves. Even the in-
toreating woman with thoughts more at
trac.ive than dress will not be less
charming if perfectly booted and gloved.

THE NEW PANAMA CANAL SCHEME.

Luckess investors, whose savings have been
swallowed up in VI. De Lcsseps's unfinished
Panama ditch will learn with a thrill of the
reported movement to win back their vanished
gold. This movement. Of which circumstantal
details are furnished, contemplates nothing less
than the floating Of now company, with
$40, 600, 600 capital, immediate resumption of
the work. and concentration of energy on the
crucial problems of Culcbra and the Chagres
River. As at all other stages of this unfortu-
nate enterprise the rccOuplng OF The investors,
it will be noticed is again made absolutely
contingent On further outlay. Nevertheless, an
accurate conception of the true difficulties has
apparently been reached. 1t is frankly con-
fessed that the main object is 70 prevent the
lapsng of the new ten-ycar concession granted
in 1891 by the Colombian Government and no
statistical jugslcry is employed to deludc the
guileless into chimerical expectations.
At the same time, the project must impress
impartial Investigators as last hopeless effort
to make the best of a bad job. Lieutenant
Wyse, who may be trusted not 10 err in over
statement, reported to the official liquidator
year ago that the canal could not be com
pleted for less than 1920, 900 900, the amount
If the total original estimate, which would
raise the whole cost to the enormous figure
of 500, 900, 900. Another $40, 000, 900, it is
admitted, could thus pay only for completing
forty five of the entire seventy kilometres so
that five or ten years hence the unfortunate
first investors would merely find themselves
more deeply involved in a still immature spec
ulation, with less hope than ever of extrica-
ton. Considering that President Nunez, in re-
newing the concession. was adroit enough not
to surrender his Governments right to ultimate
seizure it would therefore seem the height of
folly to proceed further with costly operations,
besct throughout with doubt and danger, whose
final issue no living being can guarantee.
The extreme astuteness of President Nunezs
compromise this incident freshly emphasizes.
Under the De Lesseps contract of 1880 the
canal was to be finished by March, 1892, or the
completed fraction, with all permanent plant
hypothecated by the Colombian Government

tons. President Nunez, although favorng the
foreclosure which the National Congress STOOD
sssdy to sanction. was easily persuaded to pro-
ling tho concession for another ten years. An

ssrcnuousy resisted by the company, and would.

ranized with sufficient capital to resume regu-
lar work. President Nunez deftly cleared away
whatever prejudice might attach to the Co.

portunites in any particular. Should the efiort
70 start the new company succeed, 1t would IL
is true. preclude the chance of the early bar
gain with American or European Syndicates
which Colombians now bilariousy anticipate.
But. Judging from present indications, it could
only levy tribute on over sanguine shareholders
for the ultimate surrender, 1t their expense, OF
n still richer prize. From every point OF view
this course is to be earnestly deprecated and
hard as the alternative may appear. 1t is IN
finitey preferable to protraction of the dlsaS-
ters that have continuously waited on an enter
prise begun in ignorance, fostered on credulty
and consummated in hopeless ruin.

MR.. CLEVELAND'S UEAKNESS.

Grover Cleyelands partisans may well go
West" with their efforts to elect hlIp. For, rs
intelligent men, they must realize that they
cannot carry Newly DIRK for the ex-Presldent
What does this frantic attempt to
food the Western States with money
mean? Why this phenomenal anxiety to Sc
cure the electoral votes of at least portion
of that section? The questions are readily
answered. Mr.. Cleveland is decidedly weaker
now than he was in 1883, and the managers
of his canvass realize that fact, ana III 'he'r
desperation are resorting TO novel measures.
Having given up New-iork, they think they
will try the effect of a campaign OF dcmofal|a-
tion-a campaign in which the profuse cNpchdi-
ture of money will take the place OF argument
in some of the new States. But the scheme
is as impotent as it is desperate. Ii Is more
than that it is an insult to the electors OF the
States in which il will be worked. The people
of these states are not mendicantS lhey are
able to meet their own legitimate election ex-
penses. Neither are they, corrupt There
doubtless arc bribe-takers among them, but
the votes Of the large majority are not Tor sale.
Several causes render Mr. Cleveland weaker
than he was when General Harrison defeated
him in 1888. Then he had enlisted in his be-
half an army of officeholdcrs. Now he entirely
lacks such assistance Then he ran as the first
choice of the Democracy of his own State-thc
niyotal State of New-York Now he is run
ming as the one candidate against whose nom
ination every delegate from Ncw-York to the
National Democratic Convention emphatically
protested Then he ran on platform which,
while il rcjoiccd the hearts of the Free Traders
did not quite satisfy them. Now he Is running
on platform so radically Free Trade that the
Protection system is stigmatized as unconsti-
tu,ional Then he had not been beaten by
BENJAMIN Harrison, against whom he is running
q second time Now he has been. Then iiar-
risons fitness for the Presidency, and hiS ability
to discharge all its great and manifold duties to
the general satisfaction. were still 10 be proved
Now they have been demonstrated.
In the circumstances, shrcwd Democrats have
n right to feel that the election Of Cleveland
is too big contract He was not strong enough
TO win in 1883, and what hope can there he
for him in 1892, which finds him decidedly
weaker than he was then?

The greatest danger of the introduction Of
cholera in this country is by way Of Hamburg,
from which city there is direct communication
with this port. The Hamburg Steamship line
has, however, taken important action to lessen
the danger. Its fast steamships will hereafter
run no further east than Southampton, and will
carry no steerage passengers the latter will be
transported in vessels specially set apart for the
purpose and extreme precautions will be taken
in the way of fumigation, etc. The action OF
the Hamburg Company is all the more praise
worthy because it is voluntarily taken in the
interest of the American people.
