in black china silk. thickly dotted with
small discs of delicate pink, with trim
mings of black velvet ribbon. The front is
made in one piece without seams, being
very full the shoulders and gathered
into the belt to form a blouse effect The
arrangement of the trimming is too simple
to require explanation, that Is, with the ex-
ception of the girdle, which may appear
rather complicated. A band of velvet Is
properly lined and stiffened for the belt.
Four other pieces are then cut, the length
being made to suit the wearer. These are
next lined and stiffly boned. after which
they are attached to the belt in the manner
indicated in the sketch. the two back
ones being much closer together and COM
ing nearer the center of the waist than
those in front. The skirt Is made in the
usual way. with deep ruffle of black lace.
The last drawing illustrates a dainty
evening dress. Any pretty light material
may be used effectively. but the fabric
actually employed seemed peculiarly ap-
propriate well as becoming to the
golden-haired wearer. 1t was fine white
organdie, into which was woven tiny flowers
Of palest green silk. The baby waist was
cut with deep square opening, which was
filled with yoke of fine white lace and
bordered with a fluffy ruching Of lace. The

Contracts with Booksellers.

There are some members of Congress who
make contracts with Washington book
seller at the beginning of a term to take all
their public documents at fixed price--say
10 cents a volume. The bookseller gets a
great deal of unsaleable matter at this IA to-
but he gets great many books which cost
the government 81 or 81 to publish, and
which saleable in quantity at that
price Sometimes the bookseller makes a
good profit on his speculation; sometimes
he loses money on it, One of Its results is
thai you can buy copies of some congress
sional reports at the book stores for much
less than their cost to the government. or
course a Congressman might just as well
sell the stationery which is furnished to
him without charge as sell his public docu-
ments. But 1.-The strange things they do
in Congress cannot be measured sometimes
by ordinary business standards For ex-
ample, business man would think that he
had been swindled If he found that his trav-
cling salesman had used railroad pass
and charged him full fare for the trip But
the same business man will come to Con-
gress travelling on pass and collect 10

CHAPTTco, Sept II, 1894.
Again the doors of the hall in Chaptico
were opened to a large number Of the dan
cling fraternity Friday evening, the 14th
instant. On this delightful occasion all
were guests of the Adelaide Proctor" Lit
eTary Society Of Charles county. To say
that all were royalty and delightfully."- en-
tertained would be but 10 give the one
common expression.
From the general turnout, lovers of the
dance, too, have already begun to look
with favor upon the accommodation ard
pleasure 70 be had in this new enterprise
To enumerate the names Of "maidens young
and fair" who graced the occasion with
winsome presence, and gallants proud to
do homage at such a shrine, would require
too much of your space, Messrs Editors,
therefore be it sufficient to state that the
invitation was extensively accepted from
Chaptico, Nilestown, Leonardtown, Oak
vile, Charlotte Hall, Mechsnicsyille, Bry-
antown, Aliens Fresh, Laplata and the
Southern neck Of Charles.
Your correspondent is not a member of
this Society, but for the occasion he wishes
that he had been, since then, he might
have shared with i, the justly merited ex-
pressions of praise won for it from de-
lightful public.
This is embryo summer with Chaptico
Hall. but it has won prestige that will
always insure crowd aid give it place as
delightful adjunct to our society.
Such things help to make ncighborhood
a more attractive home tor her youth. May
the stockholders soon put it in better APP
pearance generally, for they now see that
they have not labored in vain.
While writing from Chaptico, Messrs.
Editors, let me pay modest but honest
compliment TO the engineering ability in
road work of Mr.. George w. Goddard.
With primitive tools and slow methods he
has to undertake his work, bur when he is
done It's done" There has been more
honest road building done in this section
of the county in the past two years than in
the rest of my recollection all together.
Another improvement to our neighbor-
hood is the addition TO the dwelling of Mr..
Samuel Hayden at mills Point" i.

The Concert at the Hail.
(ReD0rted for tie Redcon.)


Seldom since the Town Hall has been
in existence have our people enjoyed such
a musical treat as was given them within
its walls on the evening of Tuesday, 18th
instant
he concert, though inaugurated under
difTlculSes, was successfully carried out,
md wo an assure those who were not
nrcsent that IN, ,r inability TO realize what
they missed will .''e the only reason they
will not perpetually regret having been
prevented from attending.
While our local talent playeti no lnsig-
nificant parts in the performance, the az
ditions furnished by Washington city, vas
so far superior TO what our unassisted ef-
forts could produce. that ii was worth un-
dergoing considerable Inconvenience, TO any
one enjoying good music, in order to be
present.
There was considerable disappointment
on account of Miss Wilson not singing, as
many came with expectation of hearing
her; but, nevertheless. with cur loyalty TO
our home people, with Miss Biscoe, whose
singing is always well received here, to-
gether with Miss Thompson's charming
addition, and Mr.. Fisher, whose voice
seemed to your correspondent a marvel of
richness and volume, the audience would,
indeed, have been hard to please had they
not been more than satisfied with the en-
tertainment Although Miss Wilson did
not sing, she accompanied the singers; and
it is needless TO say that in this capacity
she was so far above local criticism that it
would be presumptious TO even say that her
work was "well done" Mr.. Weaver, of
Baltimore, furnished several piano solos,
which were much appreciated, and to Mr..
Hayden, of Chapt!co, the managers of the
concert were greatly indebted TO complete
the trios and quartettes.

Circuit Court.

TIL September Term of the st. Mary's
Circuit Court convened Monday, the nth
instant, Associate Judge J. Parran Crane
on the bench. J. Edwin CosId, of Valley
Lee district, was selected as foreman of the
Grand Jury and the jury was impaneled
and charged. In his remarks The Judge
dwelt especially upon the duties and oath
of the Grand Jury and explained the cases
which it would be likely called upon to
investigate. In reference 10 violations of
the liquor law, His Honor said that in the
lower part of the county there had been a
marked Improvement and that a gentleman
who often travelled the roads from below
to LeOnardtown had informed him that
ii was now a rarity 10 see a crowd gathered
about store on a Sunday. In the upper
section however, the Judge stated that he
had been tod by leading men that there
were stores upon which the shadow Of q
church fell where Sunday was shamefully
desecrated by the sale Of intoxicants. II
was the Jury's duty to put stop TO such
things and so long as he sat upon the bench
and there was need of his calling attention
to the matter and jury TO listen to him,
he would continue TO ask that the charges
be investigated and the Siolators of the
law indicted. On the matter of the public
roads the Judge said that the improvement
made upon them was worth thousands Of
dollars to the county; that the men who
had charge OF them knew what should be
done, how and when to do it and had built
miles of permanent and excellent roads.
Everyone connected with the road work
was complimented.
Seven jurors were absent and excused
and veniri to complete the panel issued
| for j. Oscar Jones, James E. jackson,
Rich. FL. j. Magill, Charles F. Bowling,

cts were called and judgments entered in

cognizance Docket was called to its con-
clusion, and the Criminal Appeal Docket
was next disposed of. At 4 p. m, the
