Light Kid Gloves.

The fancy for light kid gloves continues.
Pearl gray undressed kid gloves lightly
stitched with black, and fastened by four but
tons, are worn at afternoon receptions, day
weddings, for calling, and at the theater,
White gloves are preferred for evening wear.
Yet many find these light colors unbecoming,
as they make the hands lool; larger, and they
use instead tan or gray suede gloves both for
day and evening, and with dresses of all

raisers, the election of a democratic ad-
ministration had the instant effect to
lower the price Of wool. So the decline
began two years ago. There was such
hope that congress would refuse to
strike the farmers squarely in the face
that the farmer populist members OF
the senate would stand by the interests
of their constituents-that the decline
was slow up to March, 1888. when
"Ohio Xxx" wool brought 3015 cents a

June, 1893, it had fallen to % cents; In
March, 1894, to 2311a cents. 1t Continued

at 3O15 cents, in March, 1893, a better
wool, Of Australia, stood at Is cents In
the London market. The Mckinley

DESPERATE

Brown county must have a different
class Of populists than prevail in Lake
county as the Aberdeen News complains
bitterly concerning their boorishness
and indecency in disturbing republican
meetings. In this respect the News
says that s. Fl. Cranmer, the noted pop
ulist and prohibition apostle, is a con-
summate ass and public nuisance, and
believes that it is a concerted design on
the part of this man Cranmer and other
populists generally, to disturb meetings
by making Interruptions, contradictions
and asking questions, in order to waste
the time n destroy the effect of re-
publican speakers. The News says:
THE populists in this state are re-
duced to desperate straits. Defeated in
argument at every turn, they think their
only salvation lies in attempting by fire.
quent Interruptions ana contradictions
to stir up bad blood and Offset the fav-
orable impression made by republican
speakers, At a recent meeting in the
southern pi rt of the state Senator Gal
linger was rudely and I~rrelevantly inter
rupted some twelve or fifteen times.
At Canton the pops put up an unfor.
tunate old soldier as chief interrupter.
When his questions had all been answer
ed in a polite name he commenced
swearing and using foul language in the
hope Of breaking up the meeting. and
only desisted when the commander OF
the local q. A. r. post threatened to
place him under arrest. At E~verson's
school house, in this county, populists
in the audience fatty contradicted al
most every assertion made by Professor
Giertsen, and afterward boosted that
they had 80 held the speakers attention
that his meeting was spoiled. 1t is evil
deLt, therefore, that there is q concerted
understanding among the leaders of the
populists that republican meetings shall
be disturbed on all possible occasions by
the lowest and yilest means at hand,
and that explains why Cranmer was
chosen to do the dirty work last eve
ming" =
To such tactics the populists Of Lake
county have not yet resorted. In all
the republican meetings held in either
this city or county they hare been
most courteous and attentive. and APP
pear to imbibe the truth with an avidity
truly refreshing.
