when he Is a complete frog he has no tail

Again, the tsdpolo eats water plants:
but when he becomes frog he feeds On

BILE silk.
Now that we have gotten our wardrobe
well stocked with cspes that go all around.
the pointed cape appears, to confuse and
drive us to despair. These pointed cspes
are often hardly more than collars, the
points cut sharply down to the waist line,
and at the shoulders the cape widens to
fare elightly over the sleeves beneath.
The back of the cape either rounds be-
tween the shoulders or lie pointed. The
tendency is to cover these little cspes with
elaborate embroidery, application of heavy
lace, or orisntsl effects in besding, after
the manner of ornsmenting bolero jack
ets. A small waist Is well set off by this
style of cape, and generous bust curve
is emphasized. But Il Is very hard to re-
duce one of the old style espes to these
| proportions, to cay nothing of the waste
cf material. In many of the cape of ths
| coming season the fluff at the shoulders
will give place to more dropping effects.
Double capes, falling In folds from the
neck with no shoulder effect at all, the
under cloak contrasting color to top one
are already on the way to favor. TIL,

TIE TARIFF MERELY A BUGABO0.

The action of the democrats ia con-
grcss all through the last session of
the fifty second congress and the si
lcucc of the new administration and
the refu al of the democratic congress
to take up the question, all shows too
clearly the insincerity of the demo
cratic party in the campaign of last
year in its position on the lariff ques-
tion.
Nearly one year has elapsed since
the election last fall and yet not a
move has been made towards the re-
peal of that infamous Mckinley law
that was robbing the people to the ex-
tent of more than SI3, 200, 900 a week
Ifthere had been any sincerity at all
in the vociferous demands made in the
campaign last fall for the repeal of the
robber Mckinley law, Cleveland would
not have taken his seat until congress
had been called in extra session. ac
conpanied with the demand for its i'm
mediate repeal.
The Mckinley law was simply made

predictions are now freely made that
the democratic party will supplant
the republicans and become the party
of protection. and this seems more
probable than any disturbance of the
law as it now stands.

have caused more surprise and conster-
nation than did the announcement that

day exercises. Tine members of the
ceremonies committee had just decided
upon programme and were congratu-
lating themselves upon the progress
n1x1de when word was given of the ac-
/tion of the executive COMMITTEES. Then
they adjourned in dire dismay.
The programme had been adopted.
1t was formally decided to ask Oliver
Wendell Holmes to prepare the ode, and
to invite Grover Cleveland to deliver
the address. All this, however, was
knocked into smithereens by the mega
tive given by the executive committee.
The directors said that not only would
there be no ceremonies, but the ceremo-
nies committee with its clerks would be
abolished.
The ceremonies committee decided to
appoint subcommittee of six-thrce
