New Styles i'll Custom-made Clothes.
There are decided changes in the
styles of gentlemen's clothes for this
season. Coats are no longer tight
fitting and short skirted
Lengths for the different styles of
coats are as follows: Double breasted
frock coats-co commonly called Prince
Alberts- extend down several inches
below the knee; cutaway frock coats
about to the knee; sack coats range
from 50 to 81 inches for men of
average height. Overcoats are also
made very long. All coats should
button very easy. No attempt is
made to fit the form very close, par
ticularly with sack coats-either un-
der or overcoats-which should have a
very loose, graceful back; shoulders
are cut medium breath, and very little
padding should be used. Vests are
about the same length as last s, a5on-
double and single breasted with and
without collars, closing easy with from
three to six buttons.
raL Lttloons are made medium and
of comfortable width.
Persons not Informed up to date
as to styles are likely to think on see
ing suit Of the latest cut that the
wearer'S tailor has made misft. But
not SO, as will be found upon inquiry
at any first class custom tailoring
establishment, such as that of Adam
Dresen, and consulting the fashion
plates and fashion authorities as to
latest styles for gentlemen.

THE GRAND OLD MAN
Has rendered His Resignation As
Prime Minister to Take Effect
on Easter Day.
The News Of His Resignation Causes
Great Excitement Throughout
Europe and America.
Earl Spencer, First Lord Of the Admir-.
atty. Has Accepted the Prime
M~inistership.

LONDON, Feb. 27.-The Evening News
Of Edinburgh u on what it calls
reliable authority that Gladstone has re-
signed as premier but will retain his
place in the cabinet and continue to rep
resent Midlothian. Though following
many contradictory rumors regarding
the intentions of the great statesman, it
meets with some belief in well informed
circles and is causing the greatest excite
ment and a hurried exchange of tele-
grams between leaders and intimate ad-
visers. That he has actually rendered
bis resignation is not countenanced. 80
much as that he was expected to take
such action within the present week.
The reasons assigned are a cataract
forming on one eye which must soon be
operated on and the criticism of the lib
eral papers on him for not forcing the
fight on the house of lords.
To the Associated Press Gladstone's
private secretary would not deny the
truth of the published rumor. restricting
himself to the statement that it was un-
authorized.
The News this afternoon says the
premiership has been rendered to Lord
Rosebury, who declined, and later it was
offered to the earl of Spencer, first lord
of the admiralty, who accepted. 1t adds
that Gladstone's resignation goes into
effect at Easter.

Some intelligent young people who
follow the proceedings of congress doubt
less wonder what is meant by the Bland
seignioriage bill. Persons desiring to
sell silver to the United States or to get
it coined into dollars for themselves take
it to the treasury department or to the
mint in the form Of bullion, which is
bars of pure silver. Pure silver is too
soft to wear in dollars. The standard
American silver dollar contains alto
gether 4i2i grains of metal. Of this, 3711
grains are pure silver. The rest, or one
tenth of the whole weight, is alloy, chiefly
copper. This leaves on the hands of the
government in pure silver the one-tenth
pure silver that it took from the weight of
every dollar to add the necessary alloy.
The government keeps this for it's own
to defray the expense of the coinage. 1t
is called the governments seigniorage.
There is now in the treasury vaults some
$50. 100, 900 worth of seigniorage that has
been left over from the coinage Of the
many silver dollars since the resumption
of silver coinage in 1878. This is what
Mr.. Bland wants made into dollars and
put into circulation.

of apology which he sent to the clerks

owed a more explicit apology to the

They Hold q Mass Meeting and Adopt
Resolutions.
ITHACA, N. Y, Feb. 27.-Over a thou
sand Cornell students gathered in the
Library lecture room last evening to
take action regarding the Banquet trag-
edy. A prolonged discussion was held
over the adoption Of the resolutions as
presented by the four class presidents.
The following resolutions were adopted:
We, as students Of Cornell university
in mass meeting assembled, formally ex-
press regret at the deplorable occur
rences connected with the recent fresh
man banquet which, allowing for falsfed
aud highly colored statements, have
nevertheless disgraced the university in
the eyes OF the public; We disavow the
acts as the acts Of Individuals unauthor-
ICED by any class or body Of students in
the university; we assure the civil au-
thorities OF our sympathy and co-opera-
ton in their efforts to bring the offenders
to justice; we censure the authors of ex-
aggeration and sensational press reports
which have placed the students and the
university in a false light before the
world and u~njustly furnished the name
and fame Of the institutions; we express
our conviction that, if the freshmen are
permitted to continue their banquets
they should be held under the protac-
ton Of the whole student body. 1t is
the sentiment of this meeting that they
should be exempt from molestation by
any individuals or classes.
The trustees passed resolutions au-
thorizing the coroner to draw on the
treasurer of the university for $500 for the
purpose of investigating the tragedy.

Guatemala has defaultedHn the inter
est on her bonds, the cause alleged is
the decline in the price of silver. A few
more failures of silver countries to pay
interest on English .%loans. a few more
Indian experiments ito find out how
zeal 2i0 millions of people can be
brought to bankruptcy, and a few more
months of declinings.exports to silver
countries will teach England that it is
the universal creditor and manufacturer
that will suffer mostly from the decline
in the price of silver, due to its exclusion
from the full legal tender money of the
world. A little while longer and England
will howl for her interests to be protect
ed by bi-metallism.

In our columns will be found.a London
dispatch which the resigna-
ton of William Ewart Gladstone Tues-
day to take effect at Easter.
Born December %, 1905, he entered
the house of IN in 1888, since
which time his life,,has formed "a part of
English history. In 1858 he published
works on Homer and the Homeric age,
which prohed him 70 be one Of the fore
most classic scholars of the age. Gin 1869
he was made prime minister, and it was
during this term of Office he succeeded
in passing the acts of..the Irish land bill.
and the disestablishment Of the: Irish
church. In 1874 he resigned, but in
$50 he was again made prime minister
which office he held till 1885. After a
short lived administration of Lord Sails
bury, Gladstone again zane into lpower,
and ~signalized his return by introducing
his Irish land and home rule bill. This
was rejected June I, 1886, and Gladstone
appealed to the country and was defeat
ed, so he resigned. On August 4,:1o92,
the tories were defeated, and on August
18th Of that year Gladstone was again
appointed prime minister which post he
has held ever since. His program since
has been a redistribution Of seats in
parliament caused by altered centers of
population, a law of franchise by which
no person could have two votes, and in
February, 1893, he introduced his ever
memorable home rule bill for Ireland,
which was subsequently defeated in the
house of lords.
The causes of his resignation:are given
in the dispatch, and it appears almost a
certainty under the circumstance that
William Ewart Gladstone has left the
British political arena forever.
Elected prime minister four times be
cow, after sixty-one years OF political life
at the extreme old age of So re enters
private life. Even at this ripe old age
his thoughts were clear, his speeches
we're models OF eloquence, the measures
he tried to introduce and pass the par
lament would have been momentous ir
their effects, and would have gone fal
to solve that e~ver-recurring Irish hom'
rule problem. In bis retirement to pri
vste life England loses the third grea'
statesman within the last thirty years
Palmerston, Disraeli, and Gladstone
OF which the last was not the least.
