The county commissioners have APP
pointed tax collectors for this county.
The tax list for 1893 is $4,000. against
Sc. 900 last year. The sheriff Of the
county formerly collected the taxes, but
owing to a heavy deficit in his accounts
for last year, the list had TO go TO col

WASHINGTON. D. c., Nov THE
advices received by the Department Of
state from the scene Of the last trouble
in Honduras are 10 the following effect:
Minister Baker boarded the Costa HIca,
an American ship. at Corinto On Mica
ragua) for Salvador. The ship entered
a port Of Honduras, and while there The
authorities OF the government demanded
OF the Captain, Borilla, a citizen Of Hon
duras. who was a passenger on the ship
on his way to Guatemala. Borllla, 10 Is
understood, had been engaged in some IN
surrectonary movement in Honduras,
for which a criminal charge was pending
against him. After the ship had received
her clearance papers, and while she was
leaving the port, six or seven shots were
fired. whether directly at her or i'm front
OF her, to bring her back, Is not clear.
In conformity with the departmental
usage. there IS no hint Of the secretary's
intentions I'm the matter. If, however,

Some annrnnlistic TENS.

Here are some newspaper stories told
at a dinner given at the Gridiron Club, Of
Washington, recently: A telegram was
once received at the office Of the New
York Herald from James Gordon Bennett:
There is something in the air. Can
you get it?" The well-known editor Of
an Ohio paper sent this message: "Things
dull here. Can you send us a sensation
based on facts?' In response the Wash
ington representative wired back: mo
trouble about sensation. Send facts at
once" Another incident was the case
of one OF the society correspondents. who.
during the last administration, received
an unexpected telegram from one Of her
papers on Christmas day: send 500
words on how Mrs. Cleveland took her
Christmas turkey" Flashed back on the
spur Of the moment went the answer:
"Can do It in fewer words than that.
Mrs Cleveland tool; her turkey as Cleo
patra did her pearl--swallowed it."-Ar-
gOnaut.

gown Of black filed many heart
with envy day or two ago. 1t was be-
cause Of the ivory white MORE vest
and deep turnover collar flced with white.
This makes an exquisite reception gown
for n professional lady. with whom
frivolous rufiies and suth things would
be out Of keeping. 1t is difficult to dis
tinguish second mourners from these
lovers Of "the trappings and the suits
Of woe" 1t is not crepe which marks the
distinction. for even deep mourning has
very little or that.
A black and white cape attracted
considerable attention as IT went sailing
down the street on the shoulders OF a
pretty young matrOn. L was Of black
MORE with triple collars slashed I'm the
back. each trimmed with narrow rolls
OF white satin wound with set. An
ostrich ruff encircled the neck and os-
trlch trimming peeped from each capelet
on the shoulders.
There is a perfect craze for neckwear
Of al descriptions. COllarettes Of velvet
and lace and chiffon are displayed in
every window. Ruches Of chiffon or
lace are preferred TO the mink and Astrak-
han bOas, which are so warm as 20 rem
der the throat sensitive TO cold. Follow
ing the prevailing preference for black
ana white, the most OF Them are MADE
of coarse black net edged with white lace.
They are an extremely stylish addition
to a ladys toilet.
Among black goods nothing is prettier
or more elegant than black satin. and it
is very popular for wraps and dresses as
we'll as for trimming.
The dress in the picture is Of black
satin. The skirt is hung loose on the
lining and the fuiiness is fastened down
with three up and down rows Of lace
covered ribbon. which also encircles
the skirt at the hem. Two bands Of rib
bon encircle the waist, which fits closely
and has a pointed yoke Of rich gold
brocade The sleeves fit closely with a
band Of ribbon at the elbow, above which
is a gold colOred silk puff.
