The Coming r.ashlon. For Lanes.

This is what is commonly conceded to
be the most difficult epoch Of the year In
the realms Of fashion, for, while all
modes seem to be In an undecided state,
yet everybody is most anxious to learn
what turn the new fashions will take
since all those interested on this subject
must be preparing for the coming season
the busiest of the year. In their Gag
erness to secure novel ideas many dress
makers cross the ocean. a still greater
number turn their eyes toward New
York. while the majority are anxiously
inquiring from every possible quarter In
order to obtain the much desired infor-
nation. Now 1t is undoubtedly true
that the surest, safest, most convenient
and practical way of attaining this end
is to become subscriber of substan-
tial fashion magazine, whose informa-
ton Is reliable and which offers the
greatest variety Of subjects. Such
magazine-or rather magazines-are the
well known Mcdowell French Fashion
Periodicals-the best and most popular
OF the kind, both in the old world and in
this country. LA Mode de Paris" and
paris Album OF Fashion," cost SO so
each per annum, or 35 cents copy.
"The French Dressmaker" is S3. per
year, or 80 cents copy. "La Mode" a
q family journal, with colored plates,
urequalled In price and artistic merit,
costs only Sl.50 per year or Is cents a
copy. The three first mentioned publ
cations offer each S1.00 worth Of coupon
patterns and ''La Mode" fifty cents
worth OF the same as premium for a
yearly subscription. If you are unable
to procure any Of these journals from

tute from him but apply by mail to

from the houses which they were guard

determined to resist all efforts of the
health department TO remove patients
or quarantine affected houses. The
women are all armed with base ball bats
and wear white caps. About 400
paraded through Fifteenth, Six
teenth and Seventeenth avenues and
drove the quarantine officers from
their posts. At Z o'clock Wednes-
day afternoon the health department
temporarily abandoned the attempt to
quarantine and remove patients to the
isolation hospital or to investigate
new cases in the Eleventh ward. In
regard to the abandonment of the

at Washington.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The competi-
tive drills of the various divisions of
the uniform rank of the Knights of
Pythias opened Wednesday and will
continue daily until Saturday. Ow-
ing to the large number of en-
tries 1t has been found necessary
to commence the drills at a. IN. in or
der to give each division an opportun-
ity. In the afternoon at o'clock the
biennial inspection and review took
place on the white lot adjoining the
camp. Maj. Gen. Scofield, command
ing the United States army, was the
inspecting and reviewing officer.
After dark Pennsylvania avenue was
brilliantly illuminated its whole
length, the dome of the capitol and
the statue of liberty surmounting it
being hung with electric lights. A
trades procession was witnessed by
most of the city population. There
were many handsome floats in line
with elaborate decorations and fine
spectacular effects.
The question of where the next en-
campment will be held is already ex-
citing interest, all trying to secure it.
Indianapolis Minneapolis, St. Louis
and Denver are candidates, but the
indianapolis men profess to have no
fear of the other cities.
The work of fitting the figure of the
Goddess of Liberty on the summit of
the capitol dome with electric lights,
which was pronounced impossible, has
been accomplished. Albert Ports, an
assistant to the chief electrician of the
capitol, accomplished the feat Wednes-
day by means of ladder held by four
men on the top landing of the dome.
At night the figurewas illuminated in
honor of the visiting Pvthians, for
whose benefit the lights were put in

Colorado's Governor Is Placed
+ Under Arrest.
HE IS In TROUBLE WITH UNCLE SAN.
Accused OF Violating the Postal Laws-Hs
Refuses to Give Ball and Defles tho
Authorities to Send Him
to jail.

RELEASED ON HIS OWN RECoGNIZANCE.
DENVER, Col, Aug. 29.-Gov, Davis
II. Waite was on Tuesday arrested and
brought before United States Commits
sioner Hinsdale, charged with viola
ton of the postal laws. So quietly
was this done that the governor
was trying his own case before
the commissioner before the off,
cials at the state house were aware
OF the arrest. Attorney General Sales
hastened down to the federal build
ing to assist in the defense, but arrived
too late. The governor was held to
appear on Thursday, along with Po-
lice Commissioner Dennis Mullins,
Chief of Police Armstrong and Matron
Kate Dwyer, who subsequently were
arrested and held.
Ready to Go to jail.
Gov. Waite contested the right of
any one to arrest him while he was
filling the gubernatorial chair. He
became indignant when told he would
have to furnish bail. 81 will not" he
declared in the most positive tone. II
am governor of the state and have
duties to perform. Ifyou want to put
me in jail you may do So"
District Attorney Rhodes told the
court that the evidence of Chief Arm
strong clearly implicated the governor,
and he insisted that the defendant be
held.
"Chief Armstrong is mistaken" re-
torted the governor. II never had the
letter in my possession"
After some discussion the governor
consented to sign recognizance bond.
In signing it he objected to the amount
-S5, 000-and it was accordingly re-
duced to 500, Then he walked out in
company with his two step-sons. The
governor smiled during the examina-
ton and controlled his temper adj
mirably.
Cause of the Arrest.
The letter that caused all the trouble
was addressed to "Matron Likens.
City Hall, Denver and was sent by
man named Jesse Parr, from Pueblo.
The letter is a request for n house
keeper who might be induced to marry
the writer. A statement followed of
his position and circumstances. The
iSttStS , was Nillttl BOOu
faith, but it never reached Mrs. LilSens,
who had been dismissed. The infer
ence that the writer of this letter was
actuated by improper motives and that
Matron Likens may have engaged in
nefarious traffic was made by some of
the city hall crowd. Mrs, Likens
finally heard of the existence of this
letter and made complaint to the
postal inspector. He investigated the
matter and secured the letter from
Commissioner Mullins. He submitted
a series of questions to all the parties
interested and upon receiving replies
caused the arrests
Gov. Waite claims that his replies
entirely exonerate him. The letter
was read to him, but he never held it
in his hand, nor was he instrumental
in causing the discharge of Mrs.
Likens. This affair mas created great
excitement and will make the political
situation livelier than ever. The coun-
ty convention will be held Saturday,
and the opponents of Gov. Waite will
use this city hall row in their efforts
to prevent Waite delegates to the con-
vention from being chosen.

CRANBERRY CENTER, Wis, Aug. 2s.-
The losses of cranberry growers In
this vicinity from fires have been enor-
nous. About Mather, where thou
sands of barrels have been shipped
yearly, there is almost nothing
left. The peat has been burned
down to the sand in places to the
depth of . feet. The peat formed
great beds of hot Goals, which were
taken by the wind and carried over the
heads of the fire-fghters and deposited
20, so and 40 rods away. Many of the
tracts Of land will never be used for
growing cranberries again, and as they
are almost worthless for any other
purpose will for time revert to the
county as useless land.
