all needed railways. Many hundreds of
practical lines have been projected and
win eventually be built but capital has
learned that railway Investments are be-

The present railway mileage Of the
United States, according to our record, is
l77, S53 miles, 1t will require only an aver
age increase of 3l6i miles for tho next
seven years to bring tho total at the be
ginning of the year 1900 to 100000 miles,
while II the rate of the last twenty years
Is averaged the total will then be over
2l5,OOO miles. In view OF the Immense area
Of our country which Is still 10 be supplied
with railways 1t seems hardly possible
that any year in the near future win show
so small construction record as 1893.

sufficient TO greatly increase this figure

Any one who read several Of the New
 York morning papers that day. and this journal among them. might have thought that this was bit of exclusive information. for no word about the wedding appeared in any other paper But the next morning developed the fact that the wedding had not occurred on the day named. The editor of the paper which published this detailed story had made a mistake in the date fixed for the wedding, He had nntiei- patd 1t by twenty-four hours. If he had only said. "rhis ia a story Of the wedding as it Is to occur to-day" or had held the story till the following morning. he would have saved his repu- tation for accuracy. And beyond that he would have saved the press In gem cral from some slurs which were cast upon it by the readers of his paper. That's the way with newspapers" was the common comment upon this mistake. Fortunately. 1t is not the general way for newspapers: although the anticipation Of events is becoming one of the fine arts Of journalism George Grantham Bain in August Lip Dincotts

watered silk. The sleeves have large velvet puffs and long cuffs of watered silk. The fronts Of the jacket are fas- tened by a crosEwise arrangement of velvet ribbon which also gives the belt.
 Parasol handles grow more and more elaborate. Tiny jeweled oval buckles are set in their handles and miniat lures framed in paste are used which are more suitable at the throat as jewel. A clever jeweler makes crystal salts holders overlaid with openwork silver and in circular shape, about the size of a small door handle The opening Is at the top and is protected by a sliding shield of the silver, so that the con- tents of the bottle" will not escape when the parasol is opened. Then there are time pieces in the center of a globe of crystal. The idea is not new as to the setting of watch, but 1t is a novel as applied to umbrella handles. One parasol handle with a great silver ring set in the handle is especially noted as novelty. The ring has on the under side an appliance for catch ing firmly and delicately the folds of the handkerchief, thus performing the duty of the old-fashioned "handker- chief ring" that grandmamma used to wear on her finger. Since fine lace handkerchiefs are the right things with elaborate costumes, perhaps 1t is as we'll that they should neither be hid den in the pocket nor subjected to the risks of tucking in the belt or bodice.

MT. Furness ns n Work of Art. lErom the PhiladelplIn Record. l

Probably the most artistically tat tooed man in the world is William Fur ness, a son of pr. Horace Howard Fur ness. the noted Shakespearean scholar. Mir. Furness spent Il long term in Ja- pan, and 1t was there that the figures that adorn his body were executed. A splendid reproduction of the goddess of love covers his chest, and the god of thunder .illuminates his back. Snakes and birds by the dozen mark his arms and thighs. A pagoda Is designed on one shoulder, and fearful and won derful collection of geometrical de- signs covers the other shoulder. A Chi nese boat Is tattooed on one leg and a dragon looks up from the other. The artist who executed these designs was paid twelve dollars an hour for his ser vices, an appalling fee in that country. where twenty-five cents per diem is a prlncely salary.
