THE LOST SPOOL

How a Chicago Man RevenSed Himself
Upon His Spouse.
One summer, long time ago, re-
lates the Chicago Times, the wife of
a Well-known North slider went up to
one of the Northwestern resorts to
spend a couple of weeks with friends
there. She took with her some
fancy work to occupy her idle mo-
ments, and at the end of week she
found that her black silk had given
out, so that she wrote her husband
to find spool in the lower drawer
of the bureau" and send it on. The
dutiful husband spent three solid
hours on hot day before he found
the missing spool. Of course it was
not where his wife had said it was.
After he had changed his saturated
linen the man went down and sent
the spool by registered mail to his
wife. That night it struck him as
,, absurd that she should have put him
to all that trouble, and he resolved
to teach her lesson. He thought
i that with q little. effort she might
I have found some silk at the Summer
resort that would have answered her
purpose.
Well, he bought a gross Of spool
silk and put it in a drawer of his
desk. The next time she left town
she found a spool of black silk under
her plate at the place where she
took her first meal; and ever since
then she has been followed by
spool of silk, even to Europe. Wher-
ever she may stop she finds the
spool at her plate or on her dresser.
She has learned the lesson and the
inventive husband is never bothered
with little commissions.

Though tful Of Thomas

One comes across examples of in
nate refinement of feeling among the
roughest men. A contributor is re-
sponsible for the following story: A
year or two ago, I had a survey to
make of some land belonging to a
large silver mine. I had taken nv
wife with me, and the superintendent
was most kind in showing and explain,
ing everything to her.
One morning we We're all standing
near shaft, listening with great inter-
est to his explanations concerning
prospects, veins of ore, values and es-
Inmates, when suddenly we heard some
confused sounds of failing, followed
by various exclamations and, we
thought, awful groans. "What is the
matter?" exclaimed my wife, as the
cage came up and a big, sturdy fellow
stepped out.
Nothing much, lady," he answered,
and he whispered something to the su-
perintendent, who turned to us with
an expression of great concern on his
face
Zone Of the men who is working be-
low has had bad fall,'' he said. "His
shoulder is dislocated, and they fear
his leg is broken. Why do they not
bring him up at once?" he continued,
addressing the great brawny, red-shirt-
ed miner who had brought the news.
'Tom was afraid Of frightening the
lady"

FOR THE FAIR SEX.
INTERESTING GOSSIP ABOUT FEM.
ININE MATTERS.
The Dangers of Shopping in the
Large Cities-For a Garden Party
These Are Not Costly-Gowns for
Ye Summer Maiden.

The fine parlors and waiting rooms
which are now to be found in the
big dry goods stores have been put to
q peculiar use by the pickpockets and
sneak thieves that make the stores
their stamping ground. Recently the
porter of one of the Fourteenth street
stores found a pocketbook in one of the
waste baskets in the ladies' parlor
When opened at the superintendent
desk it was found to contain a check
for $50 and a number Of little trinkets.
The superintendent hunted up the ad-
dress Of the person to whom the check
was made payable, and wrote to her.
She came down the next day and
proved her ownership of the property.
Hardly day passes without our
porters finding rifled pocketbooks in
the ladies' parlor," said the superin-
tendent of this store, land, although
we have a detective on guard a large
part Of the time, it seems impossible to
catch the thieves. The fact is that
the really expert pickpocket and sneak
thief who works the dry goods stores
will take nothing except cash and
valuable jewelry. He will not take the
risk Of detection which the ordinary
thief does. Checks, trinkets and small
articles Of no special value the expert
thief throws away.
'They rarely examine their booty in
the same store in which they steal it.
Take the pocketbook of this woman,
for instance. She was not in our store
at all the day that the pocketbook was
found here The pocketbook was taken
from her at a swell store up town.
The thief evidently fastened away as
soon as the theft had been committed,
came down here and examined the
pocketbook, took out the cash, which,
believe, amounted to $50 or $40, and
threw the rest into the waste basket.
"Of course all these expert thieves
are women. Under their present sys-
tenn their operations are very success
full The ordinary thief goes around
grabbing here and there, and waits un-
til he has collared all the stealable
things in sight. The chances are nine
cut Of ten that he will be detected
before he finishes. That shows the
superiority of the expert crooks work
She makes no effort to steal more than
one pOcketboolz at a time. She pays no
attention to goods on the counter, be-
cause they are too bulky and are not
easily negotiable. Unless she is caught
IN the act OF taking sa poclxetboek there
is practically no chance of catching
her. Having made her grab she goes
to some other store, and in the privacy
of the ladies' room gets rid of any part
of her seizure which might be COM
promising. I don't know of a single
case of this sort where the thief was
caught and the property recovered. Of
course, the detectives have learned to
recognize some Of the thieves who work
in this way, but that has only enabled
them to keep them out of their own
stores. In places where they are not
known yet they operate without him

contain preserved fruit or vegetables
are often found to be Internal ma
chimes lin disguise. The preprietor of.
Hotel de Trevise was sent such one
as sample Of canned peas. He be-
came suspicious and sent it to the gov
ernment laboratory, where it was
found to contain a powerful explosive
This bomb belonged to the class called
"bombe renversement," that is a
bomb the reversion Of which causes
an instant explosion. It is fitted out
with a straight or curved glass tube
connecting the two walls containing the
necessary acids, a wad of cotton separ-
ates the fluids, and this wad in some
Instances serves in place of a time
fuse. 1t was a bomb Of this kind
which caused the terrible loss of life
and destruction Of property when the
police station in Rue des Bons Enfants
was blown up. A handsomely mount
ed cane sent to high official was also
found to be a bomb, but luckily for the
recipient did no damage.
AS minor novelties in fancy bombs
may be mentioned the cigar-box and
book-shaped ones, which, though inno-
cent enough in appearance, are terrific
in dealing death when exploded. Then
there are the valiSe and hat-bOx bombs

Fashion Echoes.

Mohair seems to be the popular ma
terial this season for bathing suits, as
it sheds the water, so that the gar
ments do not become as Heavy as the
flannel ones.
One of the prettiest designs in boys
washable suits is the sailor style Of
striped Madras. White duck trimmed
with blue dungaree makes a neat and
pretty seashore dress for small boy.
Discretion is necessary in choosing
a dress of black and White-checked
silks Checks that look as if the black
is very black and the white very
white are, as a rule, to be avoided.
They are trying to the eyes, especially
Of needle women.
Serge Of the best quality is service
able, sensible and smart. Most excel
lent are serge skirts made with bolero
jackets to match, with which shirt
waists of every material and make
can be worn turn an turn about lawns
and cambrics for the earlier hours Of
the day. Silk and guipure-coverde
satins may consistently and severally
be substituted for cotton and linen as
the day advances or as the occasion
requires.
For smart, becoming summer toilets
plain and fancy crepons are just now
the prevailing materials, being very
soft and Of feather weight. This deli
cate fabric is most effective for the
draped skirts. 1t falls in exquisitely
graceful folds, and does not crease like
many other materials For promenade
and carriage dresses it is excessively
popular and stylish. Some of the most
favored hues are pale apple green,
pearl gray and a dainty rose pink.
The fancy crepons, too, are lovely.
Black, with a little silk flower worked
over it, is extremely fashionable.
Light green also, patterned with
black sash, is most unique, and makes
up remarkably tasteful aud novel
costume. -.

Gowns for Ye Summer Maiden.

Fashions come and go, but one fact
remains unchanged; dark blue and
white are the colors to be used for the
yachting gown, whether the skirts flare
or cling or the sleeves require four
yards Of material or two. But the clev-
er girl is not discouraged, for she can
design an outing suit of blue and white
so different from every other gown
that one is conscious only of it's nov
city.
A blue and white gown which an
original summer girl designed for her
self showed white duck petticoat be-
meath a skirt of dark blue serge, which
was draped fetchingly at the right side
and finished around the bottom with
five rows of narrow silver braid The
full waist, with it's short f1uted basque,
was made of duck and fastened with
silver buttons, row of the buttons
ornamenting the basque in an odd fash

bomb. Two bombs were thrown. One
Of these exploded, killing twenty-five
or thirty people, but the other fell OF
a woman s dress and rolled under a
chair, where it was found intact. AS
a specimen Of bomb making it is mas
terpiece and shows the skill Of an ex-
pert mechanic. 1t is made Of fine
steel, the halves being fitted together
by a nicely finished thread It is pro-
vided with not less than twenty-six
percussion caps, making explosion
sure when thrown against any solid
substance. The catching of this bomb
in the soft folds of a woman's dress
is the only thing that prevented it's .ex-
plosion.
The discovery of dynamite was a
boon to anarchy, which was not slow
to adopt its use for propaganda Of
the faith" Ravachol was perhaps the
most daring Of his set in the use Of
this explosive. When he decided to
blow up the house in the Rue de Clichy
he simply filled an iron kettle with dy-
Mantle, scarcely taking care to close
the lid properly, to this he attached
a fuse, lighted it, and the deed was
done.
One Of the most ingeniously construct
ed bombs was sent to a governmentoH-
cial as a sample of ground coffee. 1t
excited suspicion on account of it's
weight and was carefully opened. 1t
contained a mixture of dynamate and
sulphate of copper. The bomb thrown
in the Chamber of Deputies was in the
shape of sardine box, filled with big
nails. The explosive it contained is
supposed to have been the now famous
green powder and piric acid, with prus-
state of soda, separated by a pad of
cotton, saturated by sulphuric acid
The bomb is considered to have been
the most deadly missile ever thrown,
and had it not exploded prematurely
the loss Of life would have been fright
full.

FACTS FOR THE FAIR.

A pair of gloves passes through
nearly 200 hands from the moment the
skin leaves the dressets till the time
the gloves are purchased.
A novelty in pale pink Russian net
sprinkled with black spots and deli
cately perfumed is known as the
''complexion veil,' and is particularly
becoming to blondes.
Some thing new is plain black Hin
doc cloth, which takes the place of
lawn. 1t resembles black lawn very
much, is of perfectly fast color and
has very soft finish.
With the blouse or shirt waist the
''costa" tie will be introduced. It is
made of piece of the material at
tached to the blouse, two ends, in
fact, and loosely tied.
Mrs. Elizabeth Kingsbury, in dis
cussing the question why women do
not marry, says that the principal
reason is because of the financial
situation in which many wives are
kept.
A new feature in the skirts is to
plait them in the waist, with a box
plait on either side and two plaits in
the back, SO they stand out in a real
antique manner. It is foretold that
this style will become general.
The latest wedding invitation is
very large note sheet, the engraving
in delicate script, and in what is
termed paragraph style," which
means in full lines, as one would
| write note without leaving spaces
and putting the names by themselves,
with the proposition before, as here
tofore.
In Belgium it is the custom to give
certificates of marriage in the form
of little books with paper covers.
These little books, which are ofte n
produced in the course of law pro,
ceedings and are taken in eviden ce,
are apt to become dirty and dogs
cared. The burgomaster of Brussels
has therefore hit upon a new plan.
| Henceforward a charge will be made
for the books, which will be neatly
bound in morocco and gilt edged.
They will be something more than a
mere certificate. s.s

with a band Of trimming. A unique ef-
feet is given to the gown by the arrange
ment Of black MORE ribbon. 1t is
caught in rosettes on the bodice, and
falls with two long ends to the bottom
Of the skirt These ends are finished
with a deep band Of butter -colored lace.
This same design of lace is used to
form a deep collar surmounted by a
ruche of black silk muslin. The much
puffed sleeves are of mohair, and reach
only to below the elbow. where they
are joined by long yellow chamois
gloves.

illuminate of Mercury Bomb-Barce-
Iona.

illuminate of Mercury Bomb-Barce-
ways associated a bomb with a sphere
or cylinder Of cast steel or iron It
was at best clumsy affair, and not
only awkward to handle but also diff
fcult to conceal. The anarchist fin
de steele bomb is Il totally different
affair. To fully understand the ac-
ton of these internal machines it is but
necessary to note the great progress
made in the manufacture of explosives.
There were two recognized methods
of killing by explosives in days gone
by. It was done either by the instanta-
neous expansion of deadly permanent
gases enveloping and suffocating every
Ivingthing within reach, carrying with
it, as rule, a fetid intolerable stencil,
OR by loading up the regulation cylin-
der with balls or cartridges. The force
and expansion of the ordinary powder
