Big Sleeves and Full Skirts Seem to BE
tho stile for Winter, Too.
AS far as they have been revealed to
not, after all, to differ so very much
from what we have been seeing and
wearing for the past three month.
1t is, of course, too early yet to pro-
nounce decidedly upon the fashion of
silks and velvets to be worn during
the coming season, but those who have
seen the trousseaus Of some of the
autumn brides say that the fashions
are fundamentally the same as they
have been.
Skirts are still very full and sharply
gored.
Sleeves are more pronounced "gigots"
than ever before, and so big at the top
as to suggest the necessity for the
buckram or feather undersleeves OF
half century ago. The fullness is
only at the top. however, as they mar
row down tight to the wrist and are
finished by plain deep cuff.
Shoulder trimmings are not as far
ing as they have been. and are more
like epaulets-particular for evening
gowns, where the lace that is not so
profusely used in trimmings is gath
cred into rather stiff folds and is quite
distinct from the bertha. which falls
wide over bosom and shoulders. II is
difficult to describe this trimming.
which is somewhat of a novelty and
must be seen to be understood.

\ WASHINGTON dispatch says: Mr..
Eckles, the comptroller of the currency,
is hard at work on his report and ex-
poets to have it finished by the end of
the week, probably. 1t is understood
that he will make several rccommenda-
tions for changes in the banking law
Ii is expected that among iother things
he will recommend system by which
the national bank currency may take
the place of all Others in existence, the
purpose being to allow the national banks
to deposit in addition to bonds, gold
and silver and treasury notes and certi-
iicateS and to issue bank notes to the par
value of all deposits in the treasury.
The treasury's available cash balance
was still further depleted to-day to the
extent of 500, 900. The receipts of the
government for this month are not as
heavy as was hoped, and the deficit in
the governments accounts show already
a total deficit so far this fiscal year of
$29, 900, 600.

S6used in the River.

PLYMOUTH, Y. II. Nov, 2O.-SiX
miles from Plymouth on the shores of
Squam lake, in the little town OF Hold-
ernesS, live Mr.. and Mrs. George W.
Marden, with five daughters and one
son. Bertha, one of the daughters, y
years old, was last Wednesday stripped
almost naked and flogged So severely by
her mother that her body was covered
with ugly gashes.
Not satisfied with this the woman MAIN
ed the child in IA manner too dreadful
to mention. Being left alone in this ter
rible condition the child escaped to tue
woods. Snow was falling, and she had
nothing on but a thin skirt. She re-
manned in the woods until night fall and
then crawled to the house of John
Davidson. She told her story. and the
Selectmen were notified.
II was first intended to keep the mat
ter quiet, but it became known, and last
night party Of masked men went to
the Marden house and called for the
father, who was woodchopping at the
time Of the assault. Marden came to
the door and protested his innocence,
but he was not believed. The men took
him to the river in his night clothes and
SouSed him illhe was exhausted. They
let the woman off with severe lecture.
The matter Will be taken to court to-day.

For ways thatare dark and tricks that
are vain, the Hawaiian policy of the
United States, says the Philadelphia
Record, is peculiar. A little further light
was shed upon the situation yesterday 10y
the apparently surreptious publication CT
an abstract of the Blount report. which
goes to show that the Provisional Gov
ernment was the creature of a Conspira-
cy in which the United States Minister
bore the leading part, and to which Uni
ted States marines contributed the back
bone. AS to this phase of the matter
the evidence is SO contrary that it can
not be explained upon any other theory
than that of deliberate lying either upon
the part of the supporters of the Queen
or of the defenders of the Provisional
Government.
But if it be granted that a mistake
was made by landing United States mar
ines to help turn out the Queen and in
stal her successors, why should another
mistake be made by the forcible turning
! out OF the Provisional Government to
| install the Queen? 1t has been conceded
! that the present Government of the
islands is the best they ever had. In
the exercise of It's dominating influence
over the fortunes of the islanders, what
ever form Of rule they may establish for
themselves, the United States Govern
ment is bound to first consult the public
welfare. As long as this Government
| shall insist that the independence Of
Hawaii must toe respected by all other
powers it will continue to exercise a
qualified protectorate which will be none
the less real because it is not matter of
stipulation. The United States would
not Toe justified in OuSting the present
authority in the islands To set up a worse
one. They would not be justified in un-
dertaking to right one wrong by commit
| ting another. If LiHoukalani have
! been aggrieved, she has herself suggested
the proper method of reparatiOn by offer
ing Tor monetary consideration quit
claim of her monarchy. The United
States, by refusing to annex the islands,
have refused to take advantage of the
opportunity brought about 10y the change
of Government.
Happily, the failure of the original
plan to overturn the existing Govern
ment of the Sandwich Islands by a sud
den stroke of diplomacy has opened the
way for rectitication of the policy of
the Administration, if the Administra-
be wise enough to see it. To upset the
present equitable rule and turn the
islands over to the joint control of an
equally odious monarchy and monopoly
would be an act of amazing folly.

Ferris And iIIS Wheel.

New YORK, Nov. 2u.-The owner and

that he had come To this city for "A rest.

Is his first annual report Issued on
Tuesday, Prof. Shaffer, Superintendent
of Public Instruction, says the increased
State appropriation from $4,000, 900 to
$1,000, 600 has not shown the fruits that
had been expected of it. He saws:
"The total increase in the cost of tuition
was $701 ,779, SO, and the decrease in
the amount of tax levied for school pur.
poses, 1921, 1885 Add to these
amounts the interest in the cost of build
ing, purchasing and renting, S777, ,591,-
7S, and the increase in the cost of fuel,
contingencies, debts and interest paid.
81 ,O72, 277, 81, and there remains a bal
auce unaccounted for in the three
million increase of the annual appropri~
alton amounting to 1925, ,559,I2 which
must have accumulated in the treasur-
les of some of the districts instead of
being expended upon the improvement
of the schools
"Unfortunately the spirit of progress
has not permeated all parts of the Com
monwealth. In too many districts the di-
rectors have yielded to the temptation
to reduce the tax rate to less than a
mill, and to run the schools on a cheap
plan by hiring cheap teachers"

Two young men went over the Horse
Shoe Rapids OF Niagara at dusk last
night. The bodies have not been recov-
cred, So that the identity of the men Is
not well established
When the Michigan Central train
stopped at the new station the passen-
gers saw two men in boat in the Horse
Shoe Rapids, opposite the third of the
Sister Islands. They were making fran
tic endeavors to reach some rocks, and
it looked as if they were about to gain.
When the train brought the report to
the city great rush was made across
the Goat Island bridge to get glimpse
of the men. The gates were closed,
which caused some delay.
The first of these to get in sight Of the

AWFUL loss of life probably reaching
a total of five hundred was caused by a
furious hurricane that swept Great Bu-
tain and Northern France. The storm
commenced on Thursday of last week
and continued until Sunday. The
greatest death harvest is on the French
coast, where it is believed that at least
500 persons have been engulfed by the
hungering waves.
On the English and Irish coasts the
number of lost seamen is also heavy
Seventy men are known to have perished
and scores of points on the coast are still
inaccessible because of the dismantled
wires. VIII ole fleets of coasting and fish.

Robbed by Masked Nen.

NEW CASTLE, Pa, Nov. 19.-Last
night about 10 clock Mrs. Mary vii
liams, who lives with her son near Enon
Valley, was startled 10y knock at her
back door. She asked what was wanted
and was told that a traveller had taken
sick 10y the waysde and desired shelter
Ms. Williams opened the door, and was
confronted by three masked men, who
pointed rcyolverS ut her head and warned
not to make any noise She greatly
frightened and fell helpless to the floor
The villains pulled her roughly to a
chair and. thrusting the muzzics Of their
reyolvcrs against her head, demanded
where she kept her money. She refused
to tell, whereupon they bound and
gagged her. mt the same time making
threats of torture.
The old lady finally became so thor
oushly frightened that she pointed to
where her money was hidden. The rob

then securely bound the old lady hand

APPALLING loss of life. probably reach

struction of property has been caused by
the terrible upheaval of the earth at
Kuchan, Persia, according to dispatches
from Meshed. The town was complete

town being toppled over without warn

people and crushing them to death
Great crevasses opened in the earth,
through which water flowed in torrents
causing the Atrek river to overflow its
banks. The fertile region around the
city was inundated and the large gardens
and extensive vineyards were swept out

IT is now probable, says the New York
World that the present Congress Will
make an income tax part of oar fiscal
system. The reasons for doing so are
many and conclusive.
The government must have greater
revenues to meet its expenses, and there
is no better. fairer or surer way of raising
the money than by a tax on incomes.
1t is an equitable tax, because it is
levied upon wealth and not upon indus
try.
1t is a flexible tax, because its rates of
imports may be increased or diminished
from year to year, according to treasury
needs, without in any way changing the
conditions of ordinary business.
If we raise our revenues mainly from
tariff duties their amounts must greatly
vary Some years there must be a sur
plus tempting extravaganza. In other
wears there must be a deficit suggesting
changes in the rates OF duty. But fire.
QuenI CLduSeS III IdIlll uutiVS "i' ''i1''7
trous because they alter the conditions
under which business and industry must
be carried on. This is the chief vice OF
a revenue system which relies upon tar
ifs mainly and has no easily variable
tax with which to check surplus or sup
ply deficiency.
All experience shows that an income
tax meets this requirement more per
fectly than any other. Changes in its
rates no way affect the prices either of
raw materials or of manufactured pro-
ducts 1t may be per cent. one year,
p the next any 10 the third without in
the least altering any of those cOndi-
tions upon the stability of which the
merchant and manufacturer must found
their business calculations.
Ignorant and interested opponents of
this most scientific tax are trying to
create a prejudice against it by calling
it ''war tax in time of peace" But so
is our present AZ per cent tariff. 1t was
increased TO an enormous average IOI
war purposes at time when no less an
excuse would have gained popular con-
sent to the advances made. The duties
were raised with very distinctly implied
promises that they should be lowered
again when the war necessity passed
away. Instead of that they have been
still further advanced until now then
imposition upon all the people if boldly
claimed as a right by that small part OF
people whom the system enriches.
The income tax is no more war tax
than is the internal revenue tax on whis-
key, beer and tobacco. But what if il
were? HaYe.we not war burdens upon
us to the extent of more than 5000, 900,
600 annually? And is it not our war
burdens that create the present necessi-
ties for increased revenue?
The income tax meets a revenue ne
cessity. 1t happens also to be the best,
most equitable and least disturbing of
all devices for raising the money which
the government must have.

MrXieO's Revolution.

JUAREZ, MEX, Nov. 2O.-The reports
of further engagements between the rev

produced much excitement. Though
making light of the idea OF the present
trouble savOring of revolution, it Is
evident the government is fearful of the
result. Palomas and Conception have
been invaded and the former completely
looted. President Diaz has ordered that
all the revolutinnists caught be shot like
dogs. In every town along the river
secret agents are enlisting recruits for
the revoldtionists and spies of the goy>
ernment marking suspects to be arrested
and put to death.
