The overskrt has come 20 stay. There
q no DENYING that fact. All we have to do
now IS to make a choice Of evils. There are
long overskirts and short ones. Some
barely show that they are oyerskirts'
being so long as 10 nearly cover the under
skirt Some are caught up at the waist
making long fiute-like folds. others are
slashed cnce or twice or caCght up WIN
a strap TO show the skirt beneath. Some
OF the later developments show long apron
fronts. which slope up toward the back,
and do not come together, but are finished
with ribbon bows and long ends. one
dress is made with a polonaise having
this style OF drapery In front. The skirt
beneath was accordion plated. There
seems to be a tendency toward Kilt sklrlS
again, though it only appears as accordlou
plating as yet The plain skirts nave
shane which is suggestive OF plated skirts.
They are tight fitting around the hips
where the plaits would be sewed down ana
wide at the bottom where the plaits are
allowed to fare. skirts of newly Imported
gowns measure from three and one-halt
TO five yards In width, falling IN wave
like folds from the knee down. some
skirts are made with only one seam, and
that the back. Another favorite Is the
seven-gored skirt, which is particularly

the seams are stitched down with braid
or other trimming.
Hip trimmings are going out, being sup
planted IN some cases by the hounce
around the bottom Of the skirt, but more
often by the overskirt or full basque.
An odd overskirt. which IS seen on
dresses for young ladies' is called the
"washerwoman," because It IS tucked up
very much as a washerwoman fixes herself
for work. The dress illustrated above IS
made after this style. IL is Of fancy ombre
striped blue goods. combined with plain
blue 70 match. and trimmed wth black
gimp passementerie. The uuderskirt is OF
the fancy blue, and over this IS tucked
the "washerwoman" overskirt which does
not come together In the back. The waist
is made with a bolero jacket front, edged
with passementerie. and a plain blue vest
pointed az the bottom, where IL is finished
with folds Of silk running round TO the
back. where they terminate I'm chouN and
long ends Of ribbon. The sleeves are
made plain and comparatively small

Stewart SAYS They VIII All go to Sheol.

Mr.. Stewart began another instaiment
OF his speech, and IL was enliyened By
q cOlloquy with Senator Palmer. When
he came to talk about the act OF 1873.
which, he said, demonetized silver, he
was questioned slyly by Mr.. Palmer as 70
whether he had not voted for Il. He
admitted that he had. but pleaded that he
had done so ignorantly. Every senator
and member but one (meaning Mr.. Sher-
man had been deceived. No man who
had voted for it knowingly would ever
be forgiven, either IN this world or the
next. Oaughter)
How about those who voted for It
ignoranty?" Mr.. Palmer asked.
They will all 80 to the BAD
place" was the answer. IF they hlh
the means Of knowing what was in the
act they ought to have known IT,"
Il am told that it was printed" Mr..
Palmer remarked innocently.
Eyes" Mr.. Stewart admitted Then he
turned on Mr.. Palmer and said fercely:
'Do you know all that is printedT
mo, l do not" MIR. Palmer admitted.
Here is a pile of printed natter said
Mr.. Stewart. pointing 70 large package
on his table. What do you kno" about
IT,"
l X,
that IL those who favored that act go to
sbeol. those who voted for 1t ignorantly
ought TO go 80 purgatory, az least
mot at ALL" said Mr.. Stewart. why
should a man go 10 purgatory who did not
sin wilfully? There must be eVil intent III
order 10 commit a crime"
There is such a thing as criminal igno-
rance" Mr.. Palmer suggested.
L Of prf fl1fr
that matter" said Mr.. Stewart, Il viii
have such a goo1ly company Of senator's
and members 20 go with me that / will be
willing 20 20 70 the bad place with them"
In the further course Of his speech Mr..
Stewart came 70 the delunciatiOn OF the
English influence exerted, as he said IN the
Senate. He had not got half through that
point when he was stopped by Mr. Pal
mer by an indignant protest against such
a statement This array" he said. "of
English influence and English power IN an
American Senate is humiliatlng My an
cestors have fought England, and my con-
stituents are not fearful Of England either
in war or in peace. We do not fear her
power in manufactures. We do not fear
her power In commerce. We do not fear
her power In finance. And, Instead Of
sinking back 10 a depressed currency. not
equal 10 the currency OF the world, We
challenge England on every land, In every
port on every sea. and these appeals 10
our fears are thrown away"
Il am very glad" Mr.. Stewart said,
that the Senator shows spirit. II he had
knowledge equal 70 his Wit ne would be
n very considerable man Laughter)
But his courage exceeds his discretion.
Mr. Stewart continued for some ume
longer declaimlng against England ana
as he showed no sign OF coming 70 an
end. Mr.. VOORHEES,. who had been eAer-
cislng his patience for over an houI'

While these questions are being dis
cussed by the President and his Cabinet
the situation in the Senate remains I'M
changed. A vote, however. will not be
reached as early as was anticipated, by
reason of the intention of several sena-
tors 20 make speeches before the final
vote is taken. Unlike the debate Of the
last few weeks 10 will not be merely per-
functory. Senator German proposes to
make a statement as 20 the condition Of
the Treasury and the need for remedial
legislation. SenatoFJones OF Arkansas
may bring out some Information about
the circumstances surrounding the IA
nous compromise, If, ineeed,he does not
volunteer some facts; Senator Cockrell
will also have something 20 say, and
quite a number OF senators want 10 make
some explanations 20 their constituents
before they are brought face 10 face
with vote that may affect their politi-
cal careers. In States like Washington,
Wyoming and Nebraska. where there
is a strong sentiment for silver, the votes
OF Senators Squire Carey and Mander-
son for unconditional repeal may not
be the wisest course. although it is the
one likely 10 be pursued. There are other

this conclusion in Difference to the dem

This is a government in which all ciu-

THE WILD AND wo0LLY WEST FOR
WOMEN.

hOmENs
It never enters a Virglnian's mind to
think Of Virginia women voting IN cleo
tions. The question whether they should
or should not vote is settled as soon as
it is asked, and by the Virginia women
as emphatically as by the Virginia men.
People in Virginia occasionally read
something in the papers about agitation
for female suffrage. but it makes no more
impression on them than the buzzing Of
bugs, and men and women alike class 1t
along with the accounts Of hangings,
Hermann's tricks OF legerdemain, and a
new bank robbery in New York-some-
thing to be noted for a moment and never
thought Of again. Preoccupied, in com
mon with all Virginians, by this frame
of mind, we confess that IL was with
most interested curiosity We read in the
"Outlook" for October 7th letter from
one Of its staff correspondents giving an
account Of a recent journey made by him
through Kansas, Colorado and Wyoming
in Wyoming all the women vote, and it is
just as much matter Of course in public
estimation as 1t is for the men 10 vote. 1he
correspondent in a considerable stay in
Wyoming met only three or four persons
who opposed it, Husbands and wives
we suspect, always cast the same ballot
which contains one powerful argument
against woman suffrage, as, in its prac-
teal working It inevitably results in
and as many more as he has single
daughters who have attained to the voting
age one thing noticeable in Wyoming is
the fact that female suffrage has not at
all tended TO the introduction Of moral
reforms. The same social evils exist there,
and with undminished vigor as exist ip
other communities. A prominent sign
over the clerks desk in the hotel in
Cheyenne, at which the correspondent
stopped, was Louisiana Lottery Tickets

houses nor liquor saloons are either pro-

ANOTHER CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE
VIRGINIA sun.

We publish this morning another con-
Intuition by the Virginia Sun to the
Times-Sun discussion About all there IS
I'm this article is an appeal to Virginians
to vote for the Populist candidates for
Governor, etc, Of Virginia because Mr..
Cleyeland's administration Of the Federal
Government is not satisfactory to the
Virginia Sun.
We shall not waste time and space in
discussing the issues raised by the Sun
which In its opinion show that Mr.
Cleveland's administration should lie u;l-
satisfactory 10 Democrats. There has
been nothing done lnce he came to the
head Of the Government behind closed
doors. All his official acts are before
the people. and, i'm our opinion, they
have greatly strengthened his already
powerful hold on public confidence. But
suppose Mr.. Cleveland We're not admin
istering the Federal Government in a way
that pleased all Virginia Democrats,
would that constitute any reason why
they should split OFF from their brother
Democrats in Virginia and take up with
a party that has no excuse for existence
at all unless II is master Of some hidden
art in magic by which It can turn corn
stalks and oak leaves into money? There
IS nothing I'm the administration Of Vir-
ginia's government by the Democratic
party which the Sun or any one else
can find fault with Virginia, ever since
the Democrats regained control Of her
government in 1883, has had as pure and
economical a government as it is possible
for any State to have. and that is the
shall not vote for the present nominees
of the Democratic party for our State
officers. Each voter should ask himself
the question, HAS not the Democratic
party ruled Virginia wisely and wen
and does not its present list of candi-
dates promise continuance OF that
wise and salutary government
Ii can not be denied that the Democratic
rule in Virginia has been as salutary as
any government can be. TO say nothing
of its care for the lunatics for disabled
Confederate veterans, and its increase to
the public school funds. its settlement OF
the Virginia debt was the greatest servic,
ever rendered by any party to a State.
An interesting evidence Of the beneficial
effects Of Democratic rule in the STATE
may be seen by comparing the Auditor.
