She Has Probably Written to Edison by

ibid you know that it was Catherine OF
Aragon who first introduced hoop skirts
into England? Miss Strickland says: THE
English ladies were greatly surprised at
GATHERINGS dress. Her gown was very
large; both the sleeves and the body had
many plaits, and beneath the waist were
certain round hoops, bearing out the gown
ftom the waist downward That is nn-
other renson why all women should despi sc
Henry VIII. It will be his fault If we have
to wear the idiotic hoop skirt again.
But l have a scheme" added the clever
woman who was talking. Thy means of
which the hoop-skirt can be made a protec-
tion and blessing to the sex. What 1 want
is a ~hoop-skirt with an electrical battery
concealed in it. with a handle hanging out
side our gowns, SO that we can instantly
communicate a lively or deadly shock ia
any nimical or disagreeable object thnt
attacks US. just imagine tho great and
glorious possibilities in such a hoop, how
fearless and independent we should oil be.
Mice. mnd dogs, COWS. 2oats, tramps. saucy
servants and even troublesome husbands
would have no terrors for us. Talk about
emancipatinR women! 1t ia my electrical
hoop-skirt that is to do it. All I ask is to
be known as the intended inventor, and
I'm going to write to Edison about it this
very day."

ELKS GRAND LODGE.
Important and EvcntfuI Meeting In ses
sion at Detroit.

Important and Eventful Meeting In Ses-
sion at Detroit.
DETROIT, June 20-The arrival of Ex-
allied Ruler Edwin B. Hay of Washington,
of the Benevolent Protective Order of
Elks. was the most notable thing in the
preliminaries to the meeting of the grand
lodge. He was escorted by about 40 mem
bers of the Washington lodge, and made
the journey from Cleveland by boat.
In n conversation with Mr. HAY he said
that great interest and Significance was
added to the present reunion of the order
by an episode which is nothing less than
the killing of the fatted calf for prodigul
mother For the first time in three years
the New York lodge has delegates TO a
grand lodge meeting. The question of
granting them admission and seats will he
settled early i'll the grand lodge session.
The grand lodge will continue it's sessions
until Friday. In all there are about 400
persons entitled to sit in the grand lodge,
and it is expected that nearly that number
of delegates will respond to the call One
Oh the most important recommendations
that will come before the grand lodge is
that the grand lodge shall be succeeded by
supreme lodge and that grand lodges be
organized within the jurisdiction of the
several states. Another important thing
to be considered is an Elk annexation of
Canada The order being purely Ameri-
can no authority exists for the organiza-
ton of lodges except in the United States
a thorough revision of the ritual is also to
be considered

Bulletin For the Week Ending MONDAY

LINCHBURG, Va, June 2O.-During
the past seven days the temperature
has averaged slightly below the normal
for the season, but was above the nor.
NAL on Sunday and Monday. DURING
the first five days there was less than
the normal amount of sunshine. Dur
ing the first part of the week there was
very little rain, but on the 10th and 18th
general rains occurred; near the coast
the rainfall was excessive, amounting
to o96 inches in twenty four hours at
Norfolk, and was accompanied by hiph
winds, and caused very great damape to
growing and tender crops in that
vicinity. Throughout the rest of the
tidewater section the rainfall proved
generally beneficial, except that it re.
tardod wheat and hay harvest, as the
ground was becoming dry and hard pre-
ously. In the southern and south
western sections the rainfall was gen
orally only slightly above the normal
LOT the season; in the central counties,
1T was about the normal; and in the
velley and northern sections the rain
lali was generally less than half inch,
ana was beneficial to growing crops.
Corn ard tocacco are reported in fair
to good condition in al, sections. Hav
and clover are reported as short.
Barley is reported good Pastures are
IN good condition. Wheat is generally
In good condition and the best crop for
several years is looked for; in the
extreme southwest it is turning, while
in the middle and eastern sections the
crop is being rapidly harvested or is
already cut. The oat crop is short in
some sections, but in Nelson. county it
is reported as the best for many years;
1t is goood elsewhere in the vicinity of
Lynchburg and towards the southwest.
The peanut crop is reported as now
having good stand and growing rapidly,
with prospects for good crop. The
potato crop is generally good. In
Goochland county sweet potato seed is
reported to have rotted in the ground,
SO that very few had any plants. With
the exception of the damage done by
rain and wind in the vicinity of Nor.
