SOCIETY'S WAYS.

RINGLETs for women and whiskers
for men are announced as among the
fashionable possibilities of London's
near future.
TIE stovepipe hat is shaking on it's
pedestal. 1t began to disappear in the
circles of British business. The great
heat in London has worked a revolu-
ton.
FASHIONS may come, and fashions
may go, but the diamond Juror abates
not. The sparkling little stone holds
it's fascination as of yore, and main
tains it's high value.
INAustrian society it is the custom to
take partner FOR ,nly one round of a
dance. BY this means ladies and gen
tlemen change partners five or six
times in single dance.
TO DE photographed while you doze
in a corner Of your pew at church is
one of the latest terrors. The kodak
has made it's way into the pulpit. An
Irish clergyman the other Sunday dur
ing the service took a snap shot of his

MUTILATED STAMPS.
According to the law n Torn Stamp Will
Not Carry a Letter,

According to the law n Torn Stamp Will
Not Garry u Letter.
The question of the exact extent to
= X :! stamp may be mutilated and
.',:' - i,sel by the post oldcc c!,;rlIa
=. CO &lat is often raised. There /, an
nIt:.r Of the poJS Office department.,
-: the New York Post, that d letter
cannot be forwarded in the mails if
any Dart of the stamp is lost. This
would mean that even if the merest
corner of the stamp were torn it would
not be accepted. Although the de-
partment acknowledges that occasion
ally in the application of this rule
some hardship results complaints are
rarely made. AS regards its obscrv-
ance in the New York post office AS
sistant Postmaster Gaylor said the other
day:
ut is an order which is impressed
upon every new clerk, although we ex-
pect them to exercise a certain amount
of discretion and common sense. The
validity of a postage stamp, under the
law, depends'upon it never having been
used before for postage, which must be
determined from the condition of the
stamp itself. There are many stamps
on mail matter that go from post
offices insufficiently Cancelled; the de-
facement is often inconspicuous, some
times only in a corner or along the
margin. If the practice were such as
to admit the use of mutilatcd stamps,
one part of which might be from an
other stamp, the government v:2.lll bs
defrauded. We have never il Ilr. :. "
Yorl: post office had complaints i.ym
people whose letters were nnc ~
wardcd because the stamps wucc is,,-
perfect. The cases of rejection Of let
ters on account of mutilated stamps
are very few"

CAUGHT AZ LIST
og-catcher Hnyden's Assistant brought
up with Round Turn In Municipal

Dog-catcher Hnyden's Assistant brought
up with n Round Turn In Municipal
Court.
For some time frequent complaints
have been lodged against Dog-Catcher
Hayden and his assistant at police head
quarters who have been charged with
violating the law by using Questionable
means in catching dogs. A case which
came TO light in municipal court last
Monday only serves to strengthen the
belief that improper methods have been
employed by Hayden and his assistant.
Thomas Mitchell, the assistant, was
arraigned on the charge of stealing a
collar from the dog Of Mrs. Dean, a
colored woman, living at No. Lord
street. Five witnesses testified to the
fact that the dog was lying on the stoop
of Mrs. Deans house when Mitchell
came up, took the collar off its neck,
and was about to put the collar and tho
register in his pocket, when Mrs. Dean
and man named Bird interfered and
succeeded in getting the dog out of his
hands.
In municipal court, Saturday morn
ing, Dog catcher Hayden swore that he
saw culored man bring the collar and
register out Of the house after Mitchell
had caught the dog. Assuming that the
evidence of the other five witnesses is
true, Dog-catcher Hayden has clearly
perjured himself. The witnesses swore
positively that they saw Mitchell take
the collar off the dogs neck, and in
view OF the fact that they were neigh.
bors and disinterested witnesses, Judge
Ball concluded to take their evidence
and held Mitchell for the September
grand jury to answer the charge Of
larceny. Bail in the sum of 5000 was
asked.
