AN UNJUST SUSPICION.


 This is censorious world, and 1t is
 therefore not surprising to ses that some people are saying that the recent trouble of the New York and New England rail road ov. 8 coal bill cana from ths ,nschin- ations of the boss railroad company. And not a little sympathy is felt for the New York and New England, which has wan dered about in the railroad drama much ss the Lone Fisherman does In Evangeline, and has been much sluDg and arrowed by outrageous fortune. It is felt that the st- tschment was unnt cessary, predatory and presenting, and that 1t was made az part of plan to put the finishing toueEes on the ruin of road thst has long been ruined and ruinous.
 We think the suspicion that the boss company had any thing to do with the sud- den and legally formal presentation of that little bill is most unjust. In the first place it weuldn't stoop to such an act any more than 1t, or its friends, stopped to bills to Mcleod and his crowd until they came to grief It does Tot need to take such mean and cruel advantage of the misfortupes of others. It is in an impregnable position, with none to molest or make afraid. It Is as proud and confident as Napoleon was when he started for Russia And ifs exubersnt prosperity makes it feel 20 good and 80 kind that it wauldn't lave the heart to kick even ths Lone Fisherman of rail roads. Once before,it will be remembered, there was a similar unjust and cruel suspi- cion sfoat It was when the present pres ident of the bosa company was connected with the New York and New England. It was thought then, by some of the gossips, that the New York and New England had been brought low by the wiles and the artifices of the boss company, and 1t was even whispered that thsre was dirty work done. But tue suspicion was soon dispellsd, even es the upward mount Ing sun dispels the morning dew. When, as the gossips thought, the work had been done and the caIcaes made ready, their al legged vulture declined to ewoop down upon 1t, thus clearly showing that there was no vulture around Ths suspicion that is going about now Is no doubt as baseless as that one was. The b,ss company doesn't want the Lone Fisherman, is doesn't need 1t, and Is too rich and magnaaimous to de- scend to such petty trick as inspiring the sending in of coal bill And if it ever would do such thing now Is not the time. Its feelings are just now very tender. It has recently come out of pathetic contest in behalf of it's own loved widows and orphans, and it doesn't feel like doing any thing to hurt the widows and orphans of anybody else.

little rampant wild flowers which are let loose all over such hats, can riot through
 the spaces and peep in and out in a way
 to make one fancy that the wearer has
 inverted basket of posies on her pretty
 head, and that all the blossoms are trying
 to struggle out under the brim and through
 1t. Either gauxs ribbon or very heavy
 velvets trim these hats as far as the one
 reckless bow makes trimming. Let 1t be
 noted, however that some of these hats
 are garnished-really one may speak of
 these creations almost as if they were ssl-
 ads, with great fiat bows of velvet, that
 seem by their weight to bend down the brim of the hat into its becoming corners. The artist in matters of millinery never forpets ssmotive" in what che does. She would never mount heavy bow on an up rising pinnacle of hat brim. Her heavy bows lie where the brim droops. It is the
 dainty upright gauge, or the noddinR crisp | flowers that seem to bs the final piquant point of a general uprising tendency in the whole hat. But to get all that philosophy
 in the shape of hat, you have to pay for 1t, and, after all, if you don't realize the philosophy, you can't see what you are | paying for.
 The little lady of my sketch wears hat the brim of which is composed of white
 crepe. It has @ ruching inside and if edged with frayed silk or marabout feath CTS. The crown is almost covered with bows and ends of white satin ribbon, ir addition to two white or cream colored | pompons. FLoRETTE.

DAYS OF GRACE

Occasionally the wild and woolly West gives the effete East lesson in legislation which is worth needing Such is the ac- tion of the Oregon legislature in making 8 law that no days of grace shall bs allowed on any foreign or inland bill of exchange. draft, check, order, promisfory note, bond, ] or other negotiable instrument or paper, nor upon any non negotiable instrument, l and abolishiDg all days of grecs allowed by merchants in the State of Oregon.
 Days of grace are an old institution, and there has, of courze, been some reason for their existence. In the old English law d avs of grace were granted by the court for delay st the prayer of the plaintiff or defendsnt-three days beyond the day
 named in the writ, in which the person
 summoned might appear and answer. And both in Great Britain and the United States, at common law, three days of grace are allowed to men who arc summoned to pay money. The idea has been, we suppose, to give debtors, or appear to give them, reason to feel that their eredi- tors were not unduly severe with them. And in the old days, when there were no telegrarhs or railroads, they might have been useful.
 In rare Cases it is possible that the days of grace granted to debtors now are really useful to them, but there doesn't seem to be any very solid reason for their cor tinuarcs. D~btots who can pay at all csn usually pay as we'll at tue end of sixty days as at the end of sixty-thres days. And if they hadn't the days of grsc" to rely on they wouldn't rely on them. Moreover, cutting off ths days of grace might incite many men to mors prompt payment and mere careful pro vision for payment. The knowledge that there will bs three days Ito turn around in" makes mary debtor little careless. They gain nothing by the delay and have to pay more interest.
 | The general abolition If days of grace
 would be greeted with joy in banks and | other financial institutions. h the com- putation of interest the thres da!s If grace are the three awkward days Even
 and regular terms are B pleas rs to the
 accountants, and odd aud irr. galar onss
 are disguatipg to them. Msny bank
 clerk has had days of disgrace on account
 of his errors in dealing with the days oi
 grace. The days of grace are a trouble
 some nuisarce wherever there are many
 notes or bills to deal with.
 | We think the Oregon legislature hal
 done wisely in reje cting this ancient GUS
 tom. In these days of quick communication
 there Is small reason for it's continuance
 Very few would suffer from it's genera
 abolition. Debtors are not often helpes
 by the days of grace, and they and thei
 creditors are often hurt by them. An
 the abolition of them would bs a boon t
 those who are obliged to deal with them i
 keeping accounts, or keeping debtors up t
 their obligations.

 as well mean thirty days as thirty thre

of danger attention is called to the great
 windows that are to be found in some of our modern buildings, which permit both an inner and an outer draft directly upon the flames It is also shown that in Boaton, at least, there is DO restriction upon plac- ing gas metres in any part of building. l little heat soon melts the solder used | about them, and releases an enormous | volume of gas, which adds ten fold of fuel to the flames These experts believe that fire-well is of small value, provided any of It's sides is covered by wooden par tition. A staircase, to afford cure means of egress, 1t is pointed out, must be entirely inclosed by brick walls, and, in addition, employees must be instructed what to do when the first alarm of fire is given. The breaking up of great floor areas by partitions of brick is naturally one of the most pressing reforms whose need is noted.
 It looks as if some kind of public provi- sion would soon be made in England for the education of poor deaf, dumb and blind, who up to the present time have been de- pendent upon private charity. A number of influential men, peers and oommoners, recently visited MT. Dyke-Ackland, the vice president of the council, and asked that the provisions of the Education act should be made to apply to these unfortu- mates. The Housaof Lords already twice has passed bill to this effect, and Mrs. Dyke-Ackland promised that similar measure shall be introduced as soon as possible in the House of Commons. By such law every school board in the coun- try would be empowered to arrange for the instruction of blind and deaf mutes up to the age Of sixteen years. Nothing was said on the subject of ways and means, but there are not likely to be any insur- mountabls difficulties of this kind. No statistics are given, but it Is to be presumed that the increase in the number of deaf and blind mutes must have been oonsidera- ble to make special legislation on their be. half necessary.
 Sailor men on the Pacific coast are greatly interested in a passenger and freight boat which is approaching completion at the young city of Everett, on Puget Sound. She is 161 feet long, 42 feet beam, and 26l feet depth of hold, and she bids fair to work revolution in ocean navigation The vessel is being built by the Pacific Steel Barge Company, the same company that constructed the Wetmore, lately wrecked at Yaquima Bay. Like the Wet more, the new vessel is whsleback, but she is much longer, twice as strong, and will also carry passengers ss well as freight, being provided with sixty cabins, neatly and comfortably fitted. The vessel ia to bs called the Everett When at sea not much of her will be out of water, and she will look like great req serpent with only her back shown above the waves, a few turrets, and the cabin portholes. She will run from Everett to San Francisco, and thence to Yokohoma and Hong Kong, back again to San Francisco, and thence to Everett. She will be faster than any of the Pacific Mail or Occident and Oceanic passenger ships now running from San Francisco to Chinese and Japanese ports:
