DRESSING IL RUSSIA.
How the Clothing Il Adapted to Outdoor
and Indoor Tempe rature.

The national cap has soft velvet
crown, surrounded by broad band Of
sable or of otter. 1t is always in fashion
and lasts forever. People who are fond OF
variety buy each year new cap, made Of
black Persian lambskin, which resembles
In shape that worn by the KAYAKS, though
the shape Is modified every year by the
thrifty shopkeepers.
The furs and the Russians sensible
manner of dressing in general have much
to do with their comfort and freedom from
colds. Few Russians wear flannels Of any
sort. Linen underclothing and the thin
nest gowns are sufficient in the delight
fully heated houses, and at theaters and
other places of public entertainment any
thing more would be intolerable. No Rus
sian enters a room, theater or public ball
at any season of the year with his cloak
and overshoes, and DO well trained servant
would allow an ignorant foreigner to
trifle with his health by SO doing Even
the foreign churches are provided with
cloakrooms and attendants. And the
Russian churches: On grand occasions,
when space is rallied off for officials or IA
vored guests, cloak racks and attendants
are provided near the door for the privi-
legged ones, who must display their uni
forms and gowns as a matter of state eti-
Quette.
The women find the light shawl which
they wear under their fur to preserve their
gowns from hairs, to shield the chest and
for precisely such emergencies, sufficient
protection. On ordinary occasions people
who do not keep a lackey to hold their
cloaks, just inside the entrance, have an
opportunity to practice Russian endur-
ance, and unless the crowd is very dense
the large and lofty space renders it quite
possible, though the churches are heated.
to retain the fur cloak, but it IS not
healthy and not always comfortable. IL
would not be possible to provide cloak
rooms and attendants for the thousands
upon thousands who attend church service
on Sundays and holidays. With the for

paratively limited, il is a different matter.

its kind in the United States, is TO be

The hotel was built just before the
great fire OF 1871 and il was ready TO re-
ceive its furnishings when the flames
swept it away.
1t was quickly rebuilt and has ever
since been one Of the city's leading
hotels. 1t has been the headquarters
OF the Republicans of Illinois for over
twenty years and during national con-
venuons was the place where the lead
ing men of the party have met and done
much OF the fine work" that controlled
the nominations. In its time it has
sheltered men of national wor ld-wide
note than any other Chicago hostelry.
The Grand Pacific was famed for its
banquets. The game dinners which
Mine Host Drake gave annually to his
friends throughout so many years

City Librarian of Los Angeles Sues Min
lister for Islander.

Los Angeles. Cal, April Judge
Clark has overruled the demurrer in
terposed by Rev. j. c. Campbell in the
suit charging him with slandering
Miss Teresa l.. Kelso, librarian of the
Los Angeles public library. The basis
of the action was prayer offered by
the defendant before his congregation
in the First NJ. +. church in which he
said: ''Oh, Lord, vouchsafe thy saving
grace to the librarian OF the Los An
geles city library and cleanse her of all
her sin and make her a woman worthy
of her office"
Rev. Campbell in his demurrer took
the position that his statement was
privileged. The court held that sland-
er can be perpetrated in the form of
prayer as readily as in any other form
of speech and that no communication
by the person or priest to his congrega-
ton is privileged because of such rela-
ton, perhaps when made in discharge
of his pastoral duties with purpose to
discipline the church and then only I'M
less made without malice.

GONE TO THIRD READING.
Exciting Debate in Utah Convention on the
suffrage Clause.


Salt Lake, Utah, April 1.-The excite
ment over the woman suffrage question
has been steadily on the increase for a
week. An hour before the time of call
ing the constitutional convention TO
order this morning the spacious cor
ridors around the hall We're filled with
a surging mass of humanity. Tardy
delegates found the entrance to the
hall so blocked as to make entrance i'm
possible. When the doors were opened
the ladies forced their way in and in
their enthusiasm took possession of the
delegates seats. Police officers had to
be called in TO take charge of the eX-
cited crowd. AT the time for calling
the convention to order, a quorum OF
members had not gained admission and
President Smith had to request the
ladies to Vacate until delegates were
seated.
Bishop Whitney made a short speech
in explanation of his remarks last
week and then Roberts, who was to
make the closing speech, was recog
niZed and made a mastery speech
against the pending measure. He was
particularly sarcastic in his reference
to the remarks of Whitney, who spoke
in favor of equal suffrage. At the close
of his speech he was the recipient OF
the most enthusiastic demonstration OF
applause.
The first vote was on the substitute
providing for separate submission of
the suffrage clause. Only twenty
eight delegates cast their votes in favor
of the substitute. Every substitute
and amendment was voted down and
the majority report was finally ordered
to a third reading.

CHARGED WITH BROKEN FAITH.
Kahn Reviews the History of
Indian schools.

st. Louis. April 2.-Archbishop Kahn
said in regard to the cutting down by
congress of appropriations for Catholic
Indian schools: Il think the govern
ment has broken faith. The Catholics
established Indian schools, as did the
Protestant denominations, at the re
quest of the government, which prom
Used to maintain the schools if the
churches built them.
Catholics built more schools and
had more pupils than the others be-
cause our people gave more money for
the Indians than did the Professionals.
OF course the Catholics were entitled
to large appropriations and if they got
$500. 600 and others only 500 600. the
reason was to be found in their devo-
ton to the work and their liberality."
