Morton receives a petition to the contrary.
IL is expected that silver will be paid out
again and again on pay day TO the men who
are known TO favor IL as a currency. There
was a good deal OF kicking among the en-
ployes. and good many Of them have in
dictated TO the paymaster that they want
paper money on their next pay day. One
OF the men who was given several pounds
of silver to carry home last evening re-
marked to-day: Il think Secretary Morton
Is very unfair in what ne terms as his OBJ
ject lesson. He might as well pay US In
nickel pieces or in copper pennies. and II we
protest that that is not convenient form
of money to carry. he might say by that
protest we are not in favor of copper and

were paid $4,000 in gold coin. which he

WASHINGTON. Aug. l6.-Lieutenant Bah
cock. of the board Of officers detailed by
the Navy Department to inspect the naval
militia of Michigan. has made very Hat
tering report on their operations. The mill
tia camped at Fort Mackinac. and went on
board the old gunboat Michigan every day
for instruction and target practice. Lieuten-
ant Babcock reports that the organization
as infantry was excellent and as a ship
company good; the professional ability or
the officers and petty officers he reports as
excellent, and that OF the men as fair. In
target practice they were reported fair only.
He says there were no breaches Of discip-
line, and expresses the opinion that in thir-
ty days the organization cf LIS officers and
men could go on board ship and be compe-
tent to go INTO action and give good ac-
count Of themselves. Lieutenant Babcock ad-
vises that the Michigan be fitted up with
modern rapid-fire guns. and that the officers
Of the naval militia be allowed to take q
course OF instruction at the torpedo station
to learn how to handle automobile torpe-
does.

MORToN's BETTE N0IR. being dealt With, and as it would never have done for him to go with a brass band, as they say of public visitations, he determined to look into the matter slyly. Accord ingly he went to the east side one after noon accompanied by one of the officers of labor union, and the two, without giving premonition of their coming, or explaining who they were, went in and out of the rookeries, seeing what they could see. The governor is reported to have been very unfavorably impressed by the conditions prevailing and to be particularly indignant because women and children are kept working in novels from ten to fifteen hours day. Ac- cordingly, he is about to recommend an entire overhauling of the contract labor system, and if he carries out his present intentions 1t is probable that his administration will be characterized by very drastic action against em- ployers of labor who toleratethe sweat ing system.
 Nevertheless, the question is very difficult one to deal with, and some of the manufacturers have organized to defeat any legislation aimed at them.

 were curls down upon the fore head the bonnet could come for ward. Now that the satin locks are brushed back from the face the bonnet has to recede to give the satin locks fair play.
 One of the earliest importations is bonnet composed entirely of strings of jet. One yellow jonquil gives touch of bright color.
 The rose is the flower. Gilt braid is woven in square open meshes to fit tight and flat like a Dutch cap on the back of the head. Roses are twined in the meshes and rose spray stands straight up on the left side
 The new hats are big and square. An enormous specimen is of open, lace like black straw, the brim curiously twisted into box-plaits above the ears. It is covered with roses and skeleton leaves
 Boat-shaped hats are odd expert ments. One big one is covered with white lace, which droops over the face from the brim. Masses of roses are placed on each side above the ears.

 She was dainty, but not pretty, neat but not elaborate; tastefully dressed, but not expensively. Her gown, of simple gray cloth, rather rough, but broken of surface as it might have been were she a bigger woman, was faced with pale salmon colored silk that harmonized well with the granite tinted gown. Her spring wrap was a har- monio shade of brown, appliqued in scroll and filigree, with smooth, gray cloth matching well the tone of the dress Her well-carried head bore a gray and brown toque with no hint in it of red. Her whole costume-soul was that of the demure brown partridge.
 fancy she was among the most suc- cessfully dressed of the gay shopping throng, if the glances of the occasional man were eloquent of success. Yet at how moderate a cost compared with the dowdy dowagers who jostled her!
 Fashions change so quickly, they say. But is it true?
 It took half dozen years for the constant threat of crinoline to par italy realize itself in wider skirts stiff fened with hair cloth. It>has taken nearly as many for the sleeves of 1895 to reach the dimensions they now ex- hibit to the admiring gaze. Trifies change half dozen times a season. Modes are enduring.
 There is a reason for this.
 The eye, having become accustomed to big sleeves or wide skirts, for in- stance, could not tolerate their absence all at once. We must leave the noun tain, as we climbed it, by easy grada- tions.
 So, of late, think the woman will be wise who assumes now that the general characteristics of winter mil linery will be carried over into spring. We shall have the tiny toque with it's pert and piquant spears and plumes of uprightness to waggle in the wind. We shall have the bow bonnet, and after ward, of course, when the sun begins his busy season in earnest, the picture hat in various forms of studied care lesshess of outline. And she shall be

would rather father and take care of a thousand truths than to daddie one lie and look after 1t. Whatever is wrong has been wrong and will be wrong for ever; and no amount of wrongs can ever make a right. Your character must stand simply and only on right, and can only be overthrown by wrong. Boys, surrender your life to God, incor- porate the principles of the gospel of Christ into your hearts; get right within and things will follow straight without; keep wrong within and you will soon find yourself wrong on the outside. Never do wrong till it is a habit with you to do wrong. Know thou the God of thy fathers, love and serve Him and it shall be well with thee in the generations that follow you.

of chiffon ruffied and fuffed until one would need to apologize for breathing on the same earth with them.
 All spring gowns have full skirts, tremendously full. I have tried once or twice to count the seams in the model dresses, but have given over the attempt. It goes beyond my powers of arithmetic Eight yards is perhaps an average circumference, and a steel or bone around the hem as usual.
 What's the matter, mammal" said n small boy the other day; you're all over pins" It was only the hair-cloth of her dress lining, making itspresence felt mildly.
 A new model for early spring is of dark blue fine woo1stuff with three skirts, one bound with cream-colored cloth, another with pale yellow, and the third with orange. The bodice opens over a box-plait of cream-colored pique, with three big enamel buttons on either side.
 Another interesting costume is of leaf green cloth with bodice and sleeves braided all over in ribbon design in brown. The bodice has full vest front of pale yellow silk. The skirt is braided on either side in spiral designs, and the hat is of green straw with jonquils for trimmings.
 Brown cloth checked with lines of red is new material. It is made into a jaunty tailor dress with double breasted coat, which is worn over red silk waistcoat with lace cascades.
 Miss Anna Gould's trousseau gowns may awaken passing interest. A white brocade evening dress is among the prettiest. A rambling rose pattern is outlined upon it in pink floss and gold and silver sequins. A lace scarf is draped at one side and the bodice is all of fine old lace with pink vel vet butterfly upon the bosom with diamond head and eyes. The waist belt IS of white satin with diamond stars.
 A reception dress is of pale green silk with chiffon bodice shot with pink and green. A cluster of roses catches the loose folds of the half low corsage, and the sleeves are of silk with chiffon frills running down to the elbows. Green ribbon knots serve for stray ornaments and there is hat to match of green chiffon and roses.
 A second reception dress is of silver silk with pale green stripe and tiny rose pattern. The bodice is of pale rose chiffon, rosettes on the shoulders. A pie

After being Dutch we prepare to be Swiss; turncoats are all we women. Side wings are introduced on half the spring hats, recalling the headdress of the peasants of the valley of tho Rhone.
 .'Shot" straws are among the novelties and an iridescent beetles wing tone is to be had as easily as plain black or brown. Ribbon of the same shade will trim it, with cream lace and roses.
 The supply of lace hats never fails. The newest is picture hat of trans parent black lace trimmed with white lace sash.
 Toques are powerful wide across the face.
 All hats are eccentric behind. Rose punches or lace rosettes finish them in the back over the hair.
