lately heard an amusing new defini-
ton to the term ''old maid" which
was held to apply, not to elderly spin
sters In general, but only to such as
had never had a chance o. changing
their condition; those who would not
when they could" or whose course of
true love has run rough, receiving the
more respectful title of maiden
laGies." The idea emanates from q
masculine brain, but the difficulty of
asccrtaining which designation ap-
plies in individual cases is problem
which the superior male intellect has
not condescended to solve says the
Ladies' Pictorial. 49,
Are old maids under this definition

form of cap, or have their hat cut in
special fashion. or add the letters

convinced that there are very few
women indeed whose experience has
failed to include love affair of some
kind, and of these few only small
minority would acknowledge the fact.

seems to me, and one which takes away
its old-fashioned sting, is that it de-
scribcs certain type of woman ire
spective of her condition in life. The
prim, narrow-minded person who fuses
over trifes, who would leave matters
of the most paramount duty or engross-
ing interest in order to put tidy
drawer or sew on n button; who goes
all her life in fear of Mrs. Grundy, and
would leave any kind action undone,
or kind word unsaid, if it ran the
slightest risk of offending that poten-
tate, would be old-maidish in spite of
any number of matrimonial ventures.
while, on the other hand, there are.
plenty of liberal-minded, youthful
hearted old misses to whom the epithet
is SO obviously unsui table that no one
thinks of applying it.

STARTING A FASHION.

How tho Wearing of white Gloves Was
Initiated in Gotham.
The other day a young man wanted
n pair of evening gloves late at night,
and had to 60 over to Sixth avenue to
get them, says the New York Press.
There was nothing of his size in stock
but pair of white gloves, while pearl
alone are de rigueur. However,
he was a dancing man and had to wear
gloves, so he bought the gloves, and in
due course of time led the cotillon
wearing them. The chappies were
astounded. Nobody could question
this mans irreproschab1e taste, and in
fact he was something of a leader Of
fashion. After supper breathless
deputation waited upon, him to know
whether or not white gloves bed come
back again. ~
''I'm wearing them myself, you sec,
dear boy" he said jolsingly, but with a
slightly superior smile. II haven't
really heard whether the prince has
found r. out yet or not"
Now your true dude is not susceptible
to the influence of irony. Besides, the
liquidation was lustered at the innova-
ton. The result was that they mixed
those speeches mp, and in half an hour
everybody in the room was saying that
the prince of Wales had taken to wear
ing white gloves in the evening, and
that Tom Blank was the first man in
New York to hear of it. So white
gloves and not pearl are now. the
proper thing to wear in New York city
on dress occasions, and when our man
of fashion strolled into the Metropoli-
tan opera house. the other night and
looked around the circle he smiled
grimly. Half the H1en in. the boxes
looked as If they were carrying snow
balls.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 25.-The Amer
lean liner Indiana, Captain Townshend, from
Liverpool and Queenstown, for this port,
with a crew of sixty men and 40 steerage
passengers, has not yet turned up, and is
now almost six days overdue. The uneasi-
ness felt for the ship in way

Hunter, of the British steamship Calvin,

that it came from passenger ship that
had met with recent disaster. Pilot Schel-

THE GRLEKS AND "BARBS."
Interesting Contest Between Rival So
cieties at Wabash College.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind, Nov. 25.-
There is great rivalry on at present in
Wabash College among the literary aspir-
ants. At the beginning of the term there
was but one debating society, and 1t had
everything to itself until two or three weeks
ago, when another ,gas organized. The old
society is known as the Calliopean and the
more recent one as the Lyceum. This week
a third has sprung into existence and is
called the Adelphian.
This rivalry is not altogether due to un-
adulterated literary or oratorical ambition.
1t is in larger degree the result of three
cornered fight between the Greek fraterni-
ties, the Phi Delta Thetas and Delta Tau
Deltas, the Phi Gamma Deltas and Phi
Kappa Psis and the 'barbs." The Calli-
opeans are, almost without exception,
"barbs," the Lyceum crowd is made up
chiefly of Phi De,tas and Delta Taus and
the Adelphians are Phi Gammas and Phi
Pss.
1t now looks as If these societies will
make things warm during the winter. There
meetings and other things. When the
Greek societies came into the fed, what
fraternity men there were among the Cal
liopeans hastened to resign and ally them
selves with men free from the taint of
'barbarism," an epithet applied to those
not members of fraternities. There is a
the strongest men, and consequently to
where the rivals will stand at the wind-up
of the winters contests. The ''barbs' are
not saying much out of school, but they
are known to feel fairly we'll equipped for
the fray. Some of their men are class lead
ers and have made it clear in debate that
they are not to be lightly thought of there.
They are said to claim that they will be
amply able TO hold their own unless their
society be turned into a sort Of recruiting
station for the fraternities.

an accident has as yet not been determined.

''but I do know that he had not been
depcsitor in the Shoe and Leather Bank

that my father was in any way connected

assertion that he feared exposure is a cruel
