War Balloons at Heigoland.

Helgolanders have been a little puz-
lied during the past few weeks owing
to some balloon experiments which
Captain Won Forster, of the German
marine service, has been making on
and about the island. Accents have
taken place by day and night with the
object of holding communication sea-
ward with the island and for balloon
signaling. The appearance Of the bal
looms amazed the adult population, and
gave infinite delight to the juveniles.

made on the island, and the services of

STATE CONVENTION.

The State Convention of tle
Peoples party in session in
Raleigh last week was All il
telligent and solid body uf men.
There were not many present
gho are accustomed to attend
conventions. they We're the
men who have been at home
laboring while the politicians
run the country. They repre-
sented the great rank and file
OF the people, they were a part
of the people. There has never
been convention in the State
that had the interest Of the
State more at heart. 1t was a
convention of the people, the
most democratic convention we
have ever seen. There was no
red tape about the convention,
it proceeded in a plain straight
forward manner to transact its
business. There has never been
convention in which there
was as much unity of thought
and action. Severa! incidents
occurred that might have rat
tied a convention Of politicians,
but that body Of the lid yeo-
many of the State was there
fighting for principles which
they we'll understood, and moth
ing could throw them off their
base.
Col. Harry Skinner was nom
mated for Governor by acclama-
ton and received a fattering
ovation. He stated that he
could not accept<he nomination
except upon a. condition. He
feared that Eaves and his gang
of Office-hOlders would take
advantage of the conditions
which forced the reformers Of
the State to put cut a ticket,
and that they W uld capture
the State. He said that he was
in the fight for financial reform,
that he could not vote for
Cleveland, because Cleveland's
erection meant a set back to re
form. He had intended to vote
for Mr.. Weaver and the Demo
cratic State ticket. But the
prescription Of the Democrat
machine had made Cleveland
the test, and by so doing had
forced him out of the Demo
crate party into the Peoples
party, the principles of which
be endorsed. The motives
which prompted Col. Skinner
to make this statement were
misunderstood by some. He
explained fully his position,
and then withdrew his name
saying that he would support
the nominees of the conveu.
ton. The convention then pro.
ceeded t. nominate full ticket

4 Word for Long Skirts.

I don't mean trains. They are very pretty in their proper place, but when they are used to assist the street clean ing department they justify all the abuse that can be heaped upon them. mean skirts which nearly touch the ground, and which when standing or sitting practically cover the feet.
 Iremember the poor and pretty hero inc of story I read long ago, who, when she was surprised by visitors in her workday costume, "sat down and confded the shoe with patch to the friendly protection of the pretty pink skirt" which she could never have done if she wore reform skirt that only came to her ankles.
 The latter of course would be more comfortable in bad weather, but the two or three extra inches are SO friendly to women who have to economize in shoes. 1 think this is one very strong reason with great many women for clinging to long skirts, and it always seems odd that you don't hear it men, tioned. Perhaps many women don't think of it in that way. They only know that they are uncomfortably con scious of their feet in short skirt.
 It costs q pretty penny, the reformers ought to know, to be always newly and neatly and daintily shod. If you can spend forty dollars, say, on shoes; if you can have variety and suitable ones for all occasions, and they fit like gloves, and you can discard them as soon as they need mending or get rubbed or out of shape, then indeed you can rejoice in a reform skirt with some of the inward tranquility which comes from a con sciousness of being well dressed.
 But the case is very different with women who must restrict themselves to ten dollars or less year; with whom each pair of shoes must last so many weeks or months, no matter what work is expected of them; who never dream of having shoes made to order, and who must consider their substantial qualities more than their style.
 This friendly service on the part of the long skirt is one thing that helps it to hold its own against the peddler stout on the kings highway.

The Sleeve Is the Making of the GowI
 This Season.

The Sleeve Is the Making of the Gowr
 This Season.
 One may truthfully say that this sea- son the sleeve is the making of the gown, for it is the sleeve which gives the stamp of originality to each costume. Some are plain gigot, though the shoul- der is not quite so high as formerly, but it is more bouffante on level with the shoulder. They are all long at the wrists, and even have little fiaring cuffs which are finished off with extreme elegance.
 The balloon sleeve is one which has large, even puffs at the top, while the rest is plain coat shape. Some of them are relevee in the center, but more are quite plain. Others have little "jockey" above the balloon puff, and nearly all are bound with fur in one way or another.
 Some sleeves for reception and even ing are slashed, and the slashes are filled in by puffs of crepe de chine or tulle. One ravishing toilet for young lady was of ivory white bengaline and shrimp pink crepe de chine. The front and two-thirds of the back was of the bengaline, and where it joined was a white pearl and gold passementerie. The sleeves were slashed and filled with the crepe demitrain.
 Many sleeves, particularly for wraps and outdoor costumes, have low puff to the elbow and the rest falls bell shape to below the wrist. Bishop sleeves, with deep cuffs, are also in vogue.

Vatican effects are everywhere, The latest is having Vatican falls of lace forming demitraiu in the back. One such costume du bal is of salmon faille richly embroidered with brown chenille on the skirt and front of the corsage. A Figaro jacket of Mordore velvet is cut away to make it decollete front and back. The sleeves are balloon puffs, gathered on the upper arm by jeweled button. It has plain front drawn to a short point.
 The newest coiffure now is to have all the hair waved and brought up to the top of the head, where it is formed into knot and held with fancy comb. The hair should all be natural, no mat ter how little or much. It is curled in soft masses on the forehead.
