CHARACTER BY coLoRs.
Tou can Tell the Character of a Woman
by the Color of Her Dress.
New York Family Story Paper.l

New York Family Story Paperl
Il can generally read a woman
by the colors she most affects in
her dress and her surroundings"
said an observant man.
"The woman who dresses in din
gy colors generally has dingy
mind. 1t partakes of the drab in
her gown.
Every often she has a drab face
and drab hair as well. She is men
tally and physically a study in mon
ochrome.
"However witty you may be for
the benefit Of that woman, she will
listen with a faded smile. You
might as well tell your best joke to
a brick wall.
"She has no JOY, no life, no en-
thusiasm, no hope. You feel in
clined to fold her up and put her
away with the winter curtains,
busted over with camphor to keep
the moths out Of her.
"The woman who affects black
as her habitual attire is almost in
variably a woman with asound vein
of practical common sense in her
nature.
"The choice demonstrates her
consciousness of some beauty she
would accentuate, or some def
cheney she would hide.
"The sable-gowned woman al
ways has tact, quickness of percep-
ton, and habit of self-control
She has learned to pass through
temptation, and to come out un.
scathed.
"The woman who is fond of dark.
blue has similar characteristics, but
in somewhat less marked degree
| have generally found, however
that she is business-like, energetic
and possessed Of discretionary pow
ers. In nine cases out of ten shC
is a good pedestrian. Very otter
she is distinctly strong-minded an(
eager for dress reform.
"The woman whose soul contin
ually yearns after green in he
gown is of character very far re
moved from either of the aforemen
toned types.
"She is generally artistic, recep
tive, and even poetical. She is yer.
ideal in her tastes and pursuits, bu
lacks caution, discretion and con
centration Of mind. She is apt t.
be dreamy, and a trife nervous.
GAS there are, however, tw,
somewhat different types of green
SO you will find notifications in tn
green-gowned woman.
"If bottle-green is her favorit
tint, the characteristics [ hay
enumerated are kept in check b
some other trait in her nature.
"If she loves pale or olive-gree1
they all simply run riot in her dis
position.
i never see a woman who affect
pale-green gowns without wonder
ing whether she will complete tn
ode to the moon that l am convince
she is writing before she gets ru
over by a hanson cab.
"Then there is the snow flax
woman, the check woman, and IL
heather-mixture woman.
"They are all very similar an
somewhat ordinary type. They
ways wish to be like other people
and the wish is fulfilled.
"They invariably are like 9th,
people in mind body and estate.
"They are healthy women, Wi
capacity for enjoying themselve
an affection for country-house Vi
its, and a wish to get married"

LOCAL OR HOME PAPERS.
Governor Francis, of Missouri, Expresses
His Opinion of them.

His Opinion of them.
Selected
Governor Francis, of Missouri,
has the following to say about the
local or home paper, which express
es the idea of all right thinking
men:
each year the local paper gives
from $500 to $1,000 in free lines to
the community in which it is To-
Gated. No other agency can or will
do this. The editor, in proportion
to his means, does more for his
county than any other ten men; he
ought to be supported, not because
you like him and his writings, but
all should support a local paper
because it is the best investment a
community can make; it may not
be brilliantly edited or crowned
with thought, but financially it is
more benefit to the people than the
teacher or preacher. Understand
me, I do not say morally or intel
lectually, but financially; yet on the
moral question you will find most
of.the local papers are on the right
side. To-day the editors Of the
home papers do the most for the
least money of any men on earth .

About 4 o'clock Yesterday evening pa.
trolman Msthy. who does night duty. was
sauntering along Elm street in citizens
clothes. when his attention was called TO
the violent agitation around the home of
Thomas Muntz, and Investigated. Finding
evidence of a severe battle he arrested both
men and looked them up. The son has his
side of the story, which sheds an unsavory
light about the actions of his father. The
young man AYERS that he was out with
ward workers nearly all day yesterday.
and when he went home late In the after
noon he sought his couch. feeling q tit sub
ject for sleep. Directly his slumbers were
broken by the entrance into the room OF
the elder Muntz. who, with o curse.
fell upon HIM with q hatohet. His father
was intoxicated, he says. and before he
could protect himself he was dealt two
blows. A wicked cash across the stomaoh
and one on the right ankle were In evi.
denoe that the old gentleman had lost mono
OF the prowess of his good right arm.
The father claims that he was impelled
to assault his son because the latter had
applied to him q vile opithet which he felt
called upon to resent. The police are au-
thority for the statement that the rela-
tions between the two men have for d long
time been very u~nfiliai, and for the past
month they have been keeping up q series
of disturbances. The injuries suffered by
the young man are very painful. but not
fatal.

A rumor was prevalent yesterday in
banking circles that a number of d~efaulted
city bonds had been sent to q local bank
for collection. and that this bank had
served notice upon the city authorities
that unless the money was produced at
once they would be placed in the hands OF
an attorney and suit brought for collection.
in such case the city would. of course.
have to raise the none in short
order or submit to the appointment of q re-
celver. The CITY officials seen declared
that they did not desire to discuss the
matter. and City Attorney Jones asked
that no mention he made of It,. Officials OF
the bank to which it was said the bonds
had been sent declined to talk.
