To see an honest industrious peo-
pie working year after year with but
little reward save simple subsis-
tence because of hard times, without
knowing or trying to know why they
are slaves is deplorable indeed.

Our present robber system of life
must be reformed, and monopoly
must be downed, or there is no hope
for the world. The toilers OF the
land must no longer be content to
work like the horse and the OK, for
their oats and for their stall while
the product of their labor goes to
enrich their owners.

gown was in white satin, most simply
fashioned, with a lace frill round the
square cut neck and big pulled sleeves.
The bodice md skirt were Joined together
just under the bust, the junction being
hiddec by a sash.
An extremely pretty evening dress ives
in a lovely shade of green gauze with a rich
sheen-or, rather, the greater part of the
bodice was of this material, the skirt being
Of black grenadine with tucked stripes run
ming perpendicularly, and this was
trimmed with black lace and belted at the
waist with ablack watered ribbon tied in a
smart bow at one side. The sleeves were
made from the elbow downward of the
same stuff as the skirt, but the upper por-
ton of them was gauze arranged very full.
The front Of the bodice had folds drawn
across the figure in o slanting direction to
the left Of the waist, and had also a sort OF
short zouave, bound with black satin rib
bon. This was a very chic gown. /

ors in the cheveit and with an underglow
of red and gold. The hat is of black straw,
with many loops Of biscuit colored ribbon.
Two more descriptions, and l am lone.
The first is a dress of ash colored armure
silk. The front is plain, and the lower
part of the corsage and all of The sleeves
are OF the silk, while the yoke is of organ
die in pink and white. The berthe is of
white lace, the outlines of the pattern be-
ing run with pink silk. Two narrow ruff
fes of the same extend around the skirt.
| saw two or three with rows of rather chin
black silk fringe put around in a similar
way. 1t looked odd, but not unpleasing.
The hat for this costume was of cream
straw, with pink plumes and black velvet
bow.
The other gown is of figured wool in q
light green ground and a dark green pat
tern. There were re -fes of silk Of the same
shade, embroidered in darker shade, and
this is used on skirt waist and as berthe.
The goods is cut on the cross, bringing the
pattern round SO as to make the skirt look
really wider than it is. Some novel effects
are obtained by the arranging OF trimming
SO as to bring the pattern out as an orna-
ment, either bias or in double folds. The
hat to go with this was of rough straw,
bent and trimmed with black velvet rib
bon, green silk and shaded green plumes.
1t will be noticed that all of these dresses
are short, none touching the ground, so
that in one way we are the gamers. Some
will reach only to the instep, and others
clear the ground but by a couple of inches,
but ION of them is to drag.
Up to the present time there have not
actually been put upon the market hoops
of any kind, but the dresses are cut in that
peculiarly faring shape that requires stiff
fleming, and by natural transition the hoops
will come.
Some of the dressings have shirrings, in
which are run steel bands, and these are
clamped together with al ingenious device,

GRESHAM AS HE IS.
The Coming Secretary of State as
Soldier, Statesman and
Jurist.

General and Judge w after Qulnton uresh-
am, whose political orbit for a year or SO
has puzzled some people, and WHO'S spoken
of for all sorts of offices, has had from the
start a rather singular career. His greatest
success was as a soldier. though as judge his
decisions have generally commanded re-
spect. 1t is pretty extensively believed in
Indiana and Illinois that he lost the nom
ination for the presidency in 1888 through
the ill directed and excessive zeal of his
principal supporters-the Chicago papers
which Is the very irony of politics, as Judge
Gresham is singularly moderate in the ex-
preston of opinions and would never at
tack a rival candidate.

odd that it is hard to say they are pretty
and speak the truth; still they will be worn
and admired, no doubt. One was a soft
cashmere of pearly gray, with dots in out
line in the once despised solferino red. The
gov was princess and had three bias ruff
fes set far apart on the skirt, headed by
figured ribbon. The sleeves were pulled
and had a little shoulder cape bordered
with the ribbon, and with it ven a black
velvet tricorne hat, with solferino plumes
and a green silk veil.
Another gown was of figured camels
hair, a wood color over fawn. The seams
were feather boned down in green silk. The
sleeves were pufs of the same, with emer-
aid green velvet arms, lapels and belt. The
front of the corsage was cut in an exagger-
ated Elton style. A green velvet tricorne
hat, with shaded fawn plumes, goes with
this gown, which / hesitate to call pretty, SO
we will term it stylish.
A group of three costumes, all built upon
the sane plan-viz., the styles in vogue in
1880, with the hoop of 1655-60-show very
decidedly which way the wind blows. The
first one in the illustration is a figured wool,
with black flowers on a dark red ground.
The skirt is very full and has four row of
oriental embroidery around it, reaching
nearly to the top. The sleeves arevery large
gigot, with a stiffened berthe on the shout
ders. Black velvet ribbon and a black and
red hat go to finish this odd costume.
The center one is of striped and figured
French wool, with a pearly gray ground
and dark green pattern. A band of Persian
ribbon extends around each of the three
founces, or Skirts" as they are called.
Gigot sleeves and corsage are cut crosswise,
and above them is a berthe made of plated
lace. Dark green velvet, and plumes OF
shaded green, and gray velvet bows make
the pretty hat that goes with this.
The third is a dress of striped cheviot in
biscuit color and brown, cut SO that all the
stripes are bias. A rufle of embroidered
silk is sewn to the bottom and to the upper
skirt, which is just brought around in front,
but forms a part of the coat shape in the
back. There is a girdle and front panel
of novelty brocade in front holding the col

A luxurious silver Bedssead.

Some of the East Indian princes have
very sharply defined ideas as to what onsti-
tutes luxury, and as most Of them have the
means to put their ideas into practice they
probably get as much pleasure out Of life
as anybody can. Abed made in Paris for
one of these princes was constructed part
ly of silver, with large female figures at
each corner, each holding q delicate look
ing fan. The weight of the sleeper's body
sets certain machinery in motion, which
causes the figures to keep the fans gently
moying-a luxury in a hot climate. BY
touching a spring a large music box is
made to give forth soft music as a further
incentive to slumber.

to notice special features in this class Of
gowns. Some of the prettiest dresses were
made of embroidered silk muslin over col
ored silks or satins. Ribbons are not used
to any great extent. The skirt trimmings
are generally put at the foot. Some of the
skirts were much fuller and gathered at
the waist. A most delightful evening

HOME RULE POLITICS.
Some Chapters From History-The
Situation in Caricature.

The A%nglo-Irish fight is on. To say that
Gladstone and Balfour, Liberal and Tory,
stand with rapiersi hand and keenly eying
each other is scarcely a figure Of speech.
1t is, in effect, a great parliamentary duel
between these two, their followers only
coming in as occasion offers to back their
champions. To understand the situation
one must have a general knowledge of the
history of Ireland since the much disputed
treaty of Limerick.

TILT BETWEEN GLADSTONE AND BALFoUR.

cartoon in Pail Mall Badget.l
That treaty in 1901 ended the last gen.
eral war between England and Ireland. the
Irish troops going home under a sort of
amnesty, save a few thousands under the
gallant Sarsfeld, who went with the
French to the continent. The treaty was
soon violated in tae spirit, if not in the let
ter. Penal laws against Catholics were
multiplied unsil, as was said later, a Cath
Ole Irishman could scarcely draw q full
breath according to law. Restrictions on
the trade of Ireland were carried to an ex-
IRENE that In these liberal times seems
sheer insanity.
TIE dominant power then turned on b
Presbyterians and other dissenters of Ulster,
and they were harassed till some $4,000 of
them came to America. The others organ
ICED and began a political fight for free
Grade and federation. The Catholics joined,
so far as they were allowed, but the dis
franchised concerted a rebellion which soon
absorbed the political movement, and the
result was the bloody outbreak of 1798. In
the meantime atolerably liberal Irish par
lament was established, but in 1900 it was
induced to vote its own dissolution, and the
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire
land was formed.
A more liberal policy was then adopted.
All the acts in restraint of trade were re-
pealed. April IS, 1929, the great act for
Catholic emancipation" received the sig
nature of George ~, and for go years Cath
olics and Pr~otestants nave enjoyed sub
stantially the same rights in every part of
She British empire. Daniel O'Connell, as
soon as eligible, took his seat as member
for Glare, and at once began the fight for q
repeal of the act of union and r~e-establish-
ment of the Irish parliament. After many
vicissitudes this demand took the form
now known as the home rule movement.
Of the bill introduced and supported by
Mr.. Gladstone it is sufficient explanation
to an American to say that it would give
Ireland about as much home rule as an
American territory has, but much less than
a state enjoys.
A state In our union could, so far as the
national constitution is concerned, enforce
areligieus text, support religious schools CT
even have an established religion, though
many Americans are ignorant of that fact.
Several of the original states did have state
churches long after the constitution was
adopted. Ireland could do none of these
things. The Episcopal church establish
ment having been abolished in 1869-70,
there Is now no established church in Ire
land, in which respect it is better off than
England, Wales or Scotland. Taken all in
ali, the contest will be the most radical and
interesting parliamentary battle since the
reconstruction of our 'late Confederate
