1t is, it is a dandy thing
To be asort of Refawmer king.

General Gordon delivered his lee
ture On the "Last Days of the Confed-
eracy" in the opera house here Friday
night One feels when the lecture is
over that he has been to a funeral al
though the lecturer i~ntersperscs tie
pathetic narrative with many humor-
anecdotes.
1t would be useless for me to attempt
to give any idea of the lecture in a let
ter like this. General Gordon is a fin
ished speaker who has evidently made
a careful study of the art of oratory al
though the essential elements we're
born in him. The lecture is calcu-
lated to broaden ones ideas of patriot
ism and powerfully appeals to ones
better nature but I think it was married
by too much talk about the American
flag. The American flag is a very
good sort of a flag in it's place, but It
did not comport with the better parts
of Gordon's otherwise splendid effort.

How Champagne Talks.

Private John Allen, Congressman
from Mississippi, repudiates what Con-
gresham Richardson said at the New
York banquet, under the circumstan-
ces. Listen to him:
"Before aware of the influences sur
rounding a banquet, il 1 were not per-
fectly familiar with the abstemious
habits of my friends from Tennessee, l
would have thought on reading this
speech that he had gotten somewhat
under the same influence that another
Tennesseean did that q travelling man
told me about.
1.-THE story was about @ ragged,
seedy, h~ardlooking fellow, who learned
b a the travelling man knew his broth
er living in Kaufman county, Texas.
The Texas brother was well off and
the Tennesseean asked the travelling
man If he ever saw his brother again
to tell him that he was hardup and that
II he was ever going to do anything
for him that was the time. Under the
influence of two or three drinks, how
ever, things began to brighten with
him, n the last the travelling man
heard from him was q request to tell
his brother in Texas that if he wanted
anything Just to draw on me- Laugh
ter.)
"Now, under the influence of one of
these New York banquets," said Mr..
Allen, with all they have good to eat
and the accomplishments, one feels by
the time that speaking begins like
telling the rest of the world to draw on
him. (Laughter.)
There is no divining what a mar will
do or say in such circumstances. For
instance, there are various brands of
the Tillman stuff and the effect must
vary in individuals. Besides, when
the wine is in the wit is out.
A Georgia Judge, (chestnut,) at a

COLUMBIA, March, Sd.

A convention of Reformers will be
held. The Reform mass meetings will
call it. 1t will meet in April. 1t will
be very funny. 1t will nominate a can
didate for Governor and another for
,Lieutenant-G Governor and possibly u
q full team will be signed.
Some fellow like Ellerbe will be
placed at the head of the ticket, if not
the present Chairman of the State
Board of Control-Tillman.
Governor Tillman asserts that he
will not be u candidate for u third
term. That assertion means nothing
at all: 'tisn't worth a counterfeit cop
per. He was no candidate before the
March convention of 1890, but he was
on hand n hungry just the same.
AND If when this April convention
meets the lung power of the three or
four hundred Reformers present is ex-
erted in yelling for "Old Ben" as they
are fond of calling him, to come and
break the record and save the move
ment from collapse and ''Old Benz
with that wonderful eye of his sees
that such q course will earn from the
Reformers a renewal of e%xuberant
gratitude and with it incidentally an
easy election to the U. S. Senate-he,

is, will declare once more that Ben

Judge Nicholas E. Worthington is a

Chicago in 1892. He is a native Of West
Virginia and is about SO years of Az. He

removed to fremont, Ills, where he
taught school for a year. AT 1.-THE outbreak
Of the war he became a war Democrat and.
supported Republican candidates until
Grant ran for president the second time
He ran for congress in 1872, but was de-
feated. Ten years later he ran against
John 81. Lewis, who stumped the district
as the candidate of wealth, intelligence.
and aristocracy.o Worthington posed as
the candidate of the plain, honest yeo-
many and got the congressional persim-
mon. In 1884 he was reelected, and in
1883 escaped q third term by the narrow
margin of 29votes. He then devoted him
self to the practice Of law in Chicago and
two years ago was elected q Judge OF the

~knockabout frocks. The ecru made up
with dark blue, pink and old rose is GER
tainly pretty. The linen hopsack and duck
make very durable gowns, and they wash
beautifully. l notice some of the latest of
these made with Bulgarian embroidery in
fast colors around the bottom and on the
jacket or blazer o. waist. Feather stitch
ings in different colors are also often seen
around the skirt, and one white linen
duck gown had an elaborate pattern braid
ed upon it in narrow black soutache. This
was very effective and stylish. Braiding
always was pretty, and we shall see much
of it during the coming season, though
in most instances it will be picked out
with beads.
l saw a pattern gown in an establish
ment, a day or so ago, where there was a
long Elton jacket made of black cloth,
with a figaro outlined upon it by a braid
ing of gold soutache. I cannot say that I
thought it in very refined taste, but it GER
tainly was very novel and striking. 1t
was to go with a black cloth suit, and
across the front at the bottom there was
to be a narrow pattern of the same style OF
braiding when the gown was completed.
The prospect now for the new colors is
that they will be rich and dark, the
Plum, prune, wine and maroon shades all
having a tint hitherto unknown, which
makes these colors more than beautiful.
The browns have a gloss and sheen like
nothing that has yet been achieved in that
color, reminding one of the warm polish
on chestnuts and hazel nuts. They are
not metallic, but glossy, like nuts or leaves.
Brown, from the palest biscuit on up
through the whole tribe of tans and NOR.
dores to seal, will be a leading color,
though those mentioned above and the
green's will also be popular. Robins egg
blue is seen even in the %broadcloths and
will doubtless be much worn, as that is q
very becoming shade, particularly to
brunettes.
l must mention a dainty apron for
home wear which is not only pretty, but
se~rviceable and sensible. The apron is
q yard long and ~ yards around and
made OF blue and white striped linen. A
bias band of the same 2 inches wide is
stitched two inches from the bottom, and
1t is gathered to q belt which ends in long
hemmed ends in the back. There is q
front which has a low vest plating of
dark blue linen, n this flares open in
the center below the waist line. There are
bretelles edged with Russian embroidery
around the top and short caps on the
shoulders. A row Of blue and white en4-
broidery lies flat along the edges OF the bre-
telles, and these cross in the back like
simple s%uspenders. The whole apron is
worth consideration. Shortened it would
be pretty for children. At the same store
1 took note of a new petticoat Of %jaconet,
with four rows Of lace insertion above
three tucked rufhes of sheer lawn, edged
with lace. The lower rufle had two rows
e laoA y cost SIS, but wal delicious.

hams family wept bitterly and went into
mourning. Racine held a public funeral
In his honor, and all the Scrooges in the
town would have signed his register Of
burial had they been asked to do so. Like
old Marley, Upham was as dead as a door
nail. 5-
Unlike Marley, however, Upham has
very recently been nominated for governor
by Wisconsin's Republicans. All this is
doubtless as puzzling as, the semiweekly
announcements that Bill Dalton is dead
announcements which are invariably fol-
lowed a day or two later by the news that
Bill has held up another train in the west.
The truth is that, although Upham looked
SO dead that a Confederate soldier stole his
shoes, he was and is still very much alive.
When he regained consciousness on the
battlefield, the first thing that worried
him was the loss of his shoes, and he made
an emphatic demand for their return that
did not prove bootless.
With his precious shoes once more upon
his feet, Upham was carried off to Libby
prison, where he proved as invulnerable to
starvation fare as he had already proved
invulnerable to Confederate bullets, and
finally returned to Wisconsin to astonish
the natives and read with great gusto the
f1attering obituary notices the papers had
published about him. These notices had
all been preserved in a scrapbook by a
fond sweetheart, whom Upham afterward
married. President Lincoln was greatly
amused by Upham's story and sent him
to West Point, where he was graduated
with honor. He served in the army a short
time apd then returned to Wisconsin,,
where he made a fortune in. the lumber
business. His full name is William H.
Upham, and he practically owns the lum-
Der town of Marshfeld. 1.

architect has made the most of his greater
opportunity of making the structure a
thing Of beauty. A corinthian order ex-
tends through the two lower stories, serv-
ing to preserve masses of solid masonry
In the four columns. The building is to
be surmounted by an attractive dome,
which rises &C feet above the main struc-
ture.
Rusticated arched doorways 9 feet wide
and II feet high will form ample ap-
proaches to the building. The clearing
house will use the eastern approach, and
the other will be for it's sole tenant-a
bank, which will occupy the entire ground
floor and part Of the basement. The admin
istration offices of the clearing house are to
be located on the second floor, and the
third story will be devoted to the great
clearing room, 80 feet long, where the
daily exchanges of the banks of New York
city and the payments of balances will be
looked after. S
The New York Clearing House a~ssocia-
ton, the most important piece of financial
mechanism in the United States, if not in
the world itself, was organized in 1853.
An idea of it's enormous business is gained
from the fact that in 1891 the total clear
ings were $35, 1863, 653, 238.81. During the
currency famine in the recent finan-
cial crisis the association issued clearing
house certificates that passed as money
and materially aided in tiding over the
money stringency and in restoring conf
dence in the business world.

cratic in both branches with maiorities
of o than 10 o. joint ballot. Nor.
gan's return to the senate is assured.

gagged her to fill the important post she
now occupies. She did not receive a de-
gree, for it is at this point that the higher
education of woman stops at Cambridge,
and teaching Is not n Of her duties. Her
work at the college Is of an executive
character. Her father once helped rule
England, and she bends her womanly en-
ergies toward ruling the girls in the col
lege.
She is a woman of rare intelligence and
education and ranks high among the
emancipated daughters of England Of
whom the world hears SO much nowadays.
One odd feature of her life at the college
is her firm friendship for the principal,
Mrs. Henry Sidgwick, although Mrs.
Sidgwick is o sister Of Arthur Balfour,
one of her father most bitter political op-
ponents. When Miss Gladstone was q
student in the college, she was very demo
cratic and approachable and never en-
couraged the formation of those cliques
life, among male students especially. =
Tennis and hockey are the popular sports
with Newman college girls, and Miss
Gladstone is said to be q clever and enthu-
siastic player in both games.
The founder of Newman was Miss
Anne Jemiina Clough, sister of Arthur
Hugh Clough, the poet. She lived in
Charleston from her sixth to her sixteenth
years and then removed to England,
where her name soon became prominent in
educational work. At Ambleside, one of
Miss Clough's first schools, Mrs. Hum
phry Ward was once a student. Miss
Clough was principal of Newman college
until her death in 1892, and she always gave
q very hearty welcome to the American
girls who sought it's educational advan-
tages. In 1882, 1883 and 1884 Longfel-
lows daughters attended the school. Many
graduates of the college are engaged In the
work of reforming social conditions and
in the university settlement, which re-
