VICTORIA. B. c., July 1.-THE
steamer Victoria brings news that
while she was at Yokohama active pre-
parations were making for war. on
Mol on the Japanese coast she passed
a war ship and eight troop ships carry
ing 10, 900 Japanese soldiers TO Korea.
The latter action was taken by the
japanese government after report
that China was going 10 send $1,000
men. On June % Ii Hung Chang or
dered feet of FIVE war ships TO the
north for service. Many Chi
nese engaged In business are
withdrawing from Korea and Japan.
Japan has stopped the expectation OF
coal. The two armies are camped very
close to each other at Seoul and il there
is any trouble the Korean capital will
be the battle ground. No less thas four
demands have been made on Japan TO
withdraw but all have been declined.
The whole orient Ia on the qui vive.
Every telegram, every mail, every move
by officials aids 10 keeping up the ten
sion among the people. The Chinese
troops are quartered at ASSN, levy
ing q forced tribute on the peo-
pie and committing many indignitles.
Reports as 10 the Korean rebels vary,
many holding that they are completely
dispersed. IL Is probable, however.
tina: they hold their strong possession
at Senshu. The reports from the spe-
cial correspondent OF the Yokohama
Nippon received June %, state that, as
expected, the rebels are still In Senshua
and so powerful that the weak govern
ment troops ara not attacked. A re-
ported great triumph OF the govern
ment troops was nothing more than the
killing Of innocent people who are be-
ing escorted by the Tugaku. The lat
ter detended them for soIne-tLme, hpt
seeing that they would not be success
full, left the people TO their fate and
shut them 10 castle. 10
the meantime the people were
killed in hundreds, and as the
Tugakua announced from the castle
that their leader had been killed, re-
port was made TO the Government TO
that effect. Judgment was given at

her forehead, and was carried down

ponderous with gold and jewels that
she was iain TO bear up her head with

Ii was not much later that the women
adopted wagon" headdress, which
seemed most grotsque Of all. 1t was
made Of gold threads, drawn by six
dapDle grays Of blown glass, with
coachman, position aud gentlemen
within. OF course only lady Of quail
" could bear such a headdress with be-
coming gravity. In moments OF haste
or excitement. her dignity must have
been difficult 10 maintain, for even the
most stOlid OF waiting maids would not
be insenslbls TO the ridiculous attitude
OF a mistress who exclaimed, as poem
OF that period has IL:

"Put my post-chaise upon my head"
Some high danes preferred sailing
10 rolling with swift wheels along
smooth paths, and there evolved from
their cOifTure a wonderful ship, with
flags flying and sails set.
After such absurditieS, the women OF
TO-DAY may fairly congratulate them
selves upon their moderation. And yet
il takes little more than breath TO
send them all flying ia one direction.
A beautiful actress will arrange a curl
at fetching angle; aud 10! all woman
kind will adopt the fancy, whether be-
coming or not.
When Emma Eames, as Elsa, wears

When Sibyl Sanderson moves majestic
ally about in clinging robes and simple
GreeS couture, all the world puts !
flIet in its hair; and when Bernhard
shakes out her locks in her Cleopatran
moods, there is nothing to be done but
regret that society will not permit the
loose-falling tresses.
But womankind gets this benefit, at
least, from all her mpetuosity-that
she need no longer follow any particu-
lar fashion Of arranging her hair. Most
society women, indeed, pay scant cour-
tesy to prevailing mode; and wear the
same couture so long as it suits them.

The senate Pushing the Appropriation

WAsHINGTOs, ID. c., July 1.-THE
rapid progress which the Senate Is max
ing on appropriation bills Will soon
leave that body free TO take up aud dis
cuss any other business that may come
before 1t. On the bills that have passed
thus far there has been little or no
debate except the few speeches which
were made on the pension appropriation
bill. Most OF the time there ha. been
much less than q quorum In slgkt and
only the subcommittee In charge OF
bill, and those who may have been in
terested In certain features Of IL have
been present ana taken part 10 IL. IL
Is said that when the appropriation
bills are out Of the way and the tariff
comes back In the Senate, the debate
will be more brisk. RI the Senate
bill should be materially changed IN
conference there are several Senators
who are expected TO draw from their
desks some very long undsliyered
speeches, which would be used 10 pre-
vent fnal action by the Senate.

manufacturing to some extent, and,
finally, of keeping several colhureS on
hand, ready 10 don at any moment.
But some dissenters loved to pattern
after the style Of the vestal virgins
who yelled their locks, allowing only a
few to peep ont about the forehead.
Il was in the twelfth century that
the feminine portion Of modern Europe
awoke TO the possibilities OF the Golf
fure. They began with long tTesses
floating over the shoulders, and held in
place by a simple head band. But their
ideas with true western progression
were Quick TO embrace more than one
Arrangement. Before the twelfth CEN
fury had ended we find the tresses
caught I'D in q great loose net at the top
Of the head, hanging apparently from
two brass knobs that we're placed on
the forehead over the ears. By what
means this fantastic couture was in
ducei TO remain in place, we are left In
ignorance.
Almost, more grotesque, however,
was the stesple head-dress, which is
Still occasionally seen In Normandy,
IL reared itself 10 great height-from
one aud half to two feet-and drap-
erY Of fine lawn hoated from its peak.
Sometimes the drapery was no larger
than an ordinary han1Kerchiei, but
more often it fell over the dress, and
not seldom TO the feet. This style
was restricted TO danes Of high rank.
The lower classes used a cloth cap,
with pieces sticking out on each side
that resembled the ears OF an ape.
Addison tells US, 10 his Spectator, how,
when Thomas Connecte launched bis
invective against il from the sacred
pulpit, the women made a great bon

OF the measure, Mr.. Lane, OF liiihoIs'

tions In regard to the payment OF Gus
toms dues to judgments between private
parties. But for private transactions
between individuals the law makes ootA

says that neither the courts nor
private individuals have any right 10
annul the law. This the Federal courts
have done In holding that Judsment

An Interesting Discovery.

hfstWtntNef Gd-ffs
a discovery has just been made In
the catacOmbs Of Rome which promises
to be OF singular importance In the his.
tory OF Christian worship and liturgiol-
ogy. Pralat WiiDert, a SilesIan arch
aeologist, has come upon a cycle Of
four paintings OF the very earliest
Christian art belonging TO the first half
OF the second century. one OF which
Represents celebration Of the Fuchar-
ist. The paintings were found 10 a
chapel OF the ST. Priscilla catcombs
which has been open TO inspection for
a: least hundred years, and yet this
interesting treasure has lain all that
time concealed aud unsuspected. 1t
was hidden under crust OF stalactlte.
so that no trace OF colors. and certainly
none OF figures, was perceptlble 20 the
ordinary observer. Prala. Wllpert,
however, declared that be could dis
signs OF coloring, and was allowed 10
experiment upon IL. lie dissolved the
stalactite crust By a chemical process.
and was rewarded by the revelation OF
the remarkable paintings, a full de.
scrlp.ion OF which is 70 be published.
