Fresh Suggestions Regarding the Arrange-

Feh1iuthe costumes.
Low-nccked Innings, under high
wasted corsagcs of %diaphanous fabrics,
~" seen at all fashionable summer re-
sorts. The sleeves, as a rule, are un-
lined, but made excessively full.
Plain Chambray and French zephyr
dresses for morning wear have seam
less, shirred princess backs. with fronts
pointed and finished either as a corse-

with folds coming from the shoulders.
Nearly all the pretty zephyrs, lawns
and French batistcs are finished on the
skirt-hem with tiny ruches or small
tapping frills made of the dress goods.
Some of the rufiies have q tiny edge of
Nalcncicnncs or torchon lace. and the
entire width of the three frills does not
exceed three inches. A similar set is
placed half way up the length of the
skirt. Handsome toilets of silk. mus

dotted Swiss muslin, tambourcd or
CANDY and soft undrcsscd India mulls.
Most of the new gowns have blouse

Our Politics.

'"s .
1t is clear that the mass of the Cana
dians who are settled in New England
are not rapidly becoming proprie.ors
of the soil, their holdings, according To
their own reports, being very much
below the average per capita assessed
valuations in the six states, rs appears
from the census of 1890. They remain
operatives in the mills and factories.
\ few of them are s~torckecper,: fewer
still are physicians and lawyers. Re-
Gently the French-Canadian press in
the United States, and especially in
New England, has rapidly developed.
This is "a pretty sure sign that the
active politicians are taking a decided
interest in the Frcnch.Canadian vote,
and are prepared To avail themselves
of the customary clcctionecring meth
DDS for the purpose of securing it.
In 1857 there were in New England
Ii, 500 Professionalism voters; in 1859
the number had increased to -, 49,: In
1891 il had grown to be 81, 663. In every
one of the six states, except Vermont,
votes equal in number to the solid
Professionalism vote would suffice to
reverse the political supremacy if they
should bc transferred from the prevail
ing party To the minority. In the
presidential election just held this vote
played an important part, especially in
Massachusetts. 1t is said that most of
the French Canadians voted for the
democratic candidate because Of the
injuries inflicted on the farmers of
Quebec by the Mckinley tariff. How
ver that may be, it is the fact that the
Professionalism vote was a matter of
much solicitude tn the politicians of
both parties, and it is its growing inn
portance in American politics that
makes the immigration of interest in
this country. Henry LOOMS Nelson,

The Drunkard,s Dream.

He was lying on the lounge sleeping
off his last debauch. Occasionally he
would arouse enough to glance at a
magazine at hand. By an extra effort
he turned another page, when his
muddled vision met most enticing
scene.
It was of two lovers straying along
woodland path. The girl was beau
tiful and the young man fine looking.
How much it reminded him of former
days, when Bessie and himself had
wandered through the lanes and
meadows near her home.
And what beautiful home it was.
From this his thoughts wandered on
to his wedding morn, when he had so
proudly driven up to that beautiful
home on the farm, to carry away the
old farmers only daughter, to be his
bride.
How her fond mothers words still
rang in his ears. ''May God deal with
you, as you deal with my child"
With these words ringing in his ears,
he slept again, and dreamed that some
wonderful genii had transformed them
each for the other. Henceforth he
was to be Bessie, and Bessie to take
his place. In his dream their new life
COMMENCED on their wedding day.
Everything passed along very pleas
antly, until Bessie began staying out
nights with the "fellows." Mercy,
how lonesome he was, it was very
hard task to amuse himself, as the
house was all in order, and he posi-
lively had nothing to do till morning.
! He actually crouched down behind the
big chair, when he at last heard Bes-
sic coming home toward morning with
the fellows" and heard her hllari-
ously laughing and singing. with this
parting to her companions: "Betcher
life stun keepin house, like little birds
y no.n
Heavens! could he ever take Bessie
in his arms again? So very disgust
ing. He wondered if Bessie had ever
felt thus toward him. and did she
know, he wondered. that they had
changed placesP Impossible that he
had ever acted as Bessie was doing
now. yet it must be.
Time passed or. and he was obliOed
to do some fancywork, and light sew
ing to support himself, for Bessie had
failed to furnish him with but few
funds, lately. not near enough to sup
ply the family needs. Bessies mothers
words still rang in his ears. Yes, he
certainly was being dealt with as he
had dealt by Bessie.
In May little Jack was born, hope
once more arose. surely Bessie would
stay at home now, aud she did, for

Lei Knnsas lead.

The initiative and referendum is not
an experiment, but has long been in
use in Switzerland in some of the can
tons, and it has worked so satisfac-
torily that all the cantons and the
Swiss national government have adj
opted it. 1t has demonstrated its
utility in causing a more general in
terest and greater intelligence on the
part of the people in public affairs. 1t
has also destroyed that bane of all
good government, partisanship, the
people now discussing the merits of
measures instead of parties. 1t has
civilized politics by taking all the bit
terness, malignity, prejudice and abuse
out of the field. Appeals are no longer
made to passion, prejudice OF party
hatred, but to opinions of measures
PROPOSED.
Another especially valuable result
is the much higher character, both
morally and intellectually, of the men
that it has brought to the front in pub
lie affairs. 1t is now possible to get
the ablest and purest men to take part
in the government, which it was not
so long as all appeals were made to
partisan hatred and prejudice, as it
still is with US. Another good result
has been greater economy and honesty
in public expenditures. Corrupt jobs
are voted down by the people, and
useless offices abolished.

ment and in respect for popular rightsP

The politics of the administration
has changed. but the Americanism
which was such conspicuous feature
of the last administration is no wit
less pronounced in thespresent one. as
was shown by the vigorous and prompt
action taken several days ago in de-
handing apologies and reparation from
Peru and Turkey for failure of citi-
zens of those countries to respect the
American flag and property of Ameri-
can citizens. The popularity of a Wig
orous maintenance of American rights
abroad is unquestionable, and it indi-
Gates very plainly that America is to
occupy much higher place in the es-
timation of foreign nations, which as
rule, recognize nothing but courage
backed up by force, in the future than
it has in the past. without regard to
the politics of the administration that
happens to be in power.

When Edison Was Young.

81 was au operator in the Memphis
Office when Thomas A. Edison applied
to the manager for a position" said
A. G. Rockefeller, member of the Re-
miniscence club, st. Louis. "He came
walking into the office one morning
looking like verftable hayseed. He
wore hickory shirt, pair of butter
nut pants tucked into the tops of boots
size too large and guiltless of black
ing. where's the boss?' was his
query as he glanced round the Office.
No one replied at once and he repeat
ed the question. The manager asked
him what he could do for him, and the
future great proceeded to strike him
for job. Business was rushing and
the Office was two men short; so al
most any kind of lightning singer

desk and fusiIlade of w1nks went the
rounds of the office. for the Jay was

cat this end of the line was an
operator who was chain lightning and
knew it. Edison had hardly got seated
before st. Louis called. Tbs new
conner responded and St. Louis started
in on long report, and he pumped it
in like house afire. Edison threw
his leg over the arm of his chair, leis-
urely transferred a wad of spruce gum
from his pocket to his mouth, picked
up pen, examined it critically, and
started in about 200 words behind.
He didn't stay there long, though. st.
Louis let out another link of speed,
and still another, and the instrument
on Edison's table hummed like an old
style Singer sewing machine.
Every man IN the office left his
desk and gathered around the jay TO
see what he was doing with that cleo
trio cyclone. Well, sir, he was right
on the word, and was putting it down
in the prettiest copper-plate hand you
ever saw, even crossing his It's, dot
ting his is and punctuating with as
much care as man editing telegraph
for rat printers. st. Louis got tired
by and by and began to slow down.

duty of newspaper to obtain and
publish the news. Several weeks ago
the editor of the San Jose Mercury
published the proceedings of a divorce
which was held with closed doors, al
though ordered by. the judge not to do
so. He was fined for contemptin the

The movement for the election of
senators by the direct vote of the peo-
pie. which was not long ago very
lightly regarded, has assumed such
proportions that its opponents have
begun to fight it. The war upon it is
beingled by Senator Hear, who offered
last week resolution declaring it in
expedient to propose constitutional
amendment for the popular election OF
senators, and who made really able
argument in favor of the resolution,
although it probably did not change
the mind of single senator.
