THE COLLECTING MANIA.
Fads of Young Ladies' for Accumulate e
Odd Articles.

Fads of Young Ladies' for Accommodating
Odd Articles.
"A most violent fad is that of col
lecSng-collecting no matter what, so
long as a collection Is made. Fans,
china, gloves, shoes, watches, gems
and so on adj nauseam | heard a man
say the other day to young woman,
Il wish | knew something to collect
China suggested madame. And the
dear fellow went Immediately TO work
buying china cups and plates pitchers.
One girl know announced some time
ago that she was collecting plates for
harlequin dessert set, and that contri-
buttons would be gratefully received
Her friends found it an easy way to
pay her compliment, and at the pres
ent time her collection numbers one
hundred and nineteen. The young
woman would fain have stopped long
ago, but the word had gone forth, and
her last condison is worse than her
first. and her faith will probably be to
lie buried meath these bits of china. as
did the Indian maid who had betrayed
her fathers city beneath the gold and
jewels the invaders heaped upon her.
Another girl is collecting vinai-
grettes. She has seventy-nine at last
counting, and is still At it. These are
a few OF the least hurtful fads There
are Others. many of them not so harm
less: and think what might be accom-
plished if half the time and energy ex-
pended on this one fad Of collecting
were devoted to some even fairly use
full purpose. 4 fad is pretty sure to be
not in the best taste. 1t argues de-
parture from established form, and usu-
ally in matters where custom, necessity
and circumstance have chosen the best
method for establishment. The rcac-
ton is sure to come, and after the nm

north wing OF the capitol was finished,
and that was fitted mp to accommodate

that was insufficient to accommodate

The State Department. Not Feeling Any
Disappointment.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-The news of
the decision was not received at the
state department with the degree of dis
appointment that might be supposed.
Private information had come that mat
ters in Paris were not looking favorable
for the United States. Besides. there
had not always been in administration
circles extreme confidence in the
strength Of the American case, and con-
siderable difference of opinion existed
as to the justice of the claims made by
this government. Secretary Gresham
declined to give an expression OF opin-
ion on the decision. He communicated
the news to President Cleveland at Gray
Gables. and also had long conference
with Secretary Carlisle.
1t ia probable that all the vessels COM
posing our feet in the Bering eea will
be withdrawn, except one revenue cut
ter which will be used in maintaining
the protective zone in accord with the
decision OF the arbitrators.
The decision will compel the United
States to make compensation to British
subjects for abstaining from the capture
of seals in the Bering sea during the
pendency of the arbitration. This does
not touch the question OF damages prior
to that time, and further information is
awaited as to the nature Of the finding.
with reference to the seizures Of 1887
and 1889.
Senator Butler said the award gave
more than he expected; that he never
believed the contention that the Bering
sea was closed sea could be main
tanned.
Senator Frye thought the court would
hold that we had property right in
seals, and says the decision raises very
serious question as to liability for past
action.
Senator Sherman thought the adjust
ment of the close season and the extern
sion of measures for the prevention of
pelagic sealing very acceptable.
