= CONNECTICUT civilization is the
latest to put on white caps and beat
the unrighteous into proper appreci-
alton OF the standard of virtue as
there set up. In their ardor to snatch
brands from the burning the Nutmeg
reformers pause at nothing, but
bravely tie women to trees and whip
them right valiantly. There are
people, however, in addition to the
whipped, who object to whitecap
methods, and to whom an unhanged
whitecap seems painful apomaly.

RAINMAKER MELBoURNE had ,

J RAINMAKER MELBOURNE had a
panic at Cheyenne when he thought
that some one had stolen his valise.
The valise contained the key by which
he unlocks the clouds, and he was
fearful that in the hands of an anna
teur much damage would be wrought.
An amateur might have disturbed
the combination so that the flood
gates would never again open, or have
opened the gates too wide and drown
ed the planet. But Melbourne found
his valise, and the world, with sigh
of relief, resumed its orbltal swing.

The panic in the Ludlow Street
Synagogue in New York, which re-
suited in the loss Of four lives and in
injuries to many, was another in
stance of what a foolish cry Of fire
can do in crowded congregation.
There was no cause for the panic, and
no one would have been hurt had not
some foolish fellow lost his head The
result is costly tribute that the
world has to pay for the lack of sense
of some of its inhabitants.

The term strike" seems to have
grown into its present use by adoption
rather than from any definite origin.
In all chimes and ages the hours Of
labor in gangs or squads have been
marked of by the striking of a bell
or gong, either by hand or clockwork.
From this naturally arose the express
sion, ito strike work" at such an hour,
which was in use long before the days
of unionism. 1t seems easy for this
expression, meaning to put down
tools and quit for a certain period, to
have been adopted to mean the quit
ting Of work for a definite object.

write it down that short-haired little
boys are considered the correct thing in
New York swelldom. Little Lord
Fauntleroy has gone clear out OF sight,
and only rarely Is an example of him
visible. The little boys of the various
Astor mothers not only have close
cropped heads this fall, but their attire
is completely free from girlish shapes
and adornments. The initial picture
shows one OF these small chaps exactly
as he appeared to the artist in Fifth
avenue. 1t will be seen that no ribbons
or any other fiimfams were on him His
hat was not ribbened, his coat was a
mlnnish sort of REFER, and even the
knee brooches, which ere still fashion
ably retained, were here displaced by
regular trousers. The material as
mothers inclined to follow this model
may like to know, was heavy navy blue
serge, without any decoration whatever.
But such suit would look well with the
collar and plastron in blue and white
stripes, or with embroidery on a white
or light-blue ground. r =,
The second fashion plate shows an

toned up to the turnover collar. Such

mat the pavement in New Montgomery

the manner IN which the pavement on

latter had only been down three weeks,
he said,
There were number Of San Francisco

OF Mr.. Burr's alleged facts. The Mont

three years instead OF three weeks, and
was as good as new; the New Montgom-

spot IN front OF Baker d Hamilton's
place, 1t was explained that it was where
ali OF the houses loading was done, and
was place where no kind of pavement
would last.

SAID II was the business men who wanted
the new pavement and not the bankers
