The reason Mr. Starin dates his pros
perity from the time OF his horse medi-
cine career is that his peregrinations
brought him in contact with the canal
boatmeu i'm the Mohawk River. There
he picked up considerable knowledge
about the canal business, which later
on led him TO visit New York and seek
an interview with old Commodore Cor
nelius Vanderbilt He managed in
some wav to see the Commodore, whom
he told bluntly that he could get good
deal more freight for the Hudson River
Road than it was getting. The Com
modore bluntly replied he had such
id cheek he ought TO be able to get

ABOUT RED HAIR.
A Statement Made That 1t Is Disap-
pearing.

A Statement Made That 1t Is Disap-
pearing.
Statisticians often tell us agreeable
facts and again they deal out state
ments which we hope are not true. A
correspondent asks if red hair is dis
appearing. and then adds his own tes-
timony that red heads will soon be a
memory and no longer a reality. Sta
tistics. which sometimes tell the truth,
aver that blondes are disappearing,and
that brunettes are annually increasing
in proportion.
Red hair is supposed to denote vio-
lent temper. great qUickness of intel
lect. a warm temperament, and par
ticular clear complexion. Ii red hair
is disappearing, then tempers and in
teIlects must be on the decrease. 1t
would hardly be right to make a
statement that red hair is disappear
ing unless a special investigating COM
mittee. which is just now the fashion,
should make a full report. The dis
appearance of hair of any color is to
be deplored, but as long as white
horses exist the red head should not
be allowed to die out.-Maryland

lis Growing TOo-1hs. Yzuaga Separation Pro-
ducss Curious Case Of Tangled Livss-No-
tabla Divorces in High Circles.

The recently announced separation
OF Mr.. and Mrs Fernando Yznaga has
caused the fashionable folk to furnish
up their memories and look about
them to see how many men and wo-
men there are in the smart world who
have terminated their matrimonial
lives in the divorce courts.
The YZnaga separation will be his
torical one in the annals of society,
and 1t recalls many sipelsr cases in re-
cent and older year&. shat the di-
yorce colony of swagg9fidom has been
given a great impetus and has grown

social function. She has had to keep
her wits about her, else a divorced
wife and husband might sit down at
the same banquet table, thus causing
a restraint among the other guests
which would demOlish the sociability
of the affair.
Inc matrimonial troubles OF the
Yznagas show a peculiar condition of
affairs. Two of Mr.. Yznaga's matri-
monial affairs have ended in separa-
tons. His first wife was Miss Gerry
Smith. a sister Of Mrs. Willie K Van
derbilt who has just been separated
from her husband. The first Mrs.
Yznaga sought speedy consolation,
after securing a divorce in California,
in Mr.. George Tiffany, a wealthy Bal
timorean. who is as we'll known in
New York as in his native city. Not
to be outdone, Mr. Yznaga courted and
married the famous beauty, Miss Ma
bel Wright, from whom he has just
separated.
These counter divorces and mar
riages of people who continue to move
in the narrow circle Of swelldom pro-
duce unpleasant collisions at times.

OCEANS Or TEA GOWNS.
Just TO think, There are three
dozen tea gowns and matines in the
trousseau. and each one cost way up in
the hundreds. One Of the prettiest is
of rich white satin. made with very
fun plain skirt. The bodice ends at
the waist. where it is finished by an
Empire belt of folded white satin.
The novelty of the gown is the ar
rangement of deep pleating or white
chiffon. which falls almost like cape
from a yoke of white silk guipure and
bands of sable fur. An eNquiSitely
dainty gown is of pale salmon brocade
with net front worked in small
pearls and bOrdered with pearl en-
broiderv. The cOrsage is cut low in
the neck. and is trimmed with chiffon
and bows of green velvet matching in
tone the green in the brocade.
The protest of all the house gowns
to- my mind is one of rich dahlia-col-
Ored velvet. The waist band is fas-
tened with diamond buckles, and the
dght-dtting waist, as well as the front
of the gown is trimmed with white
satin covered with filmy black lace.
The sleeves are of the satin. with broad
epaulets of the dahha-colored velvets.
Many people thought that, owing to
the short time between the announce
ment of the engagement and the mar
riage. Miss Could might utilize the
rousseau she purchased in Paris a
year ago. when she was engaged to
Mir Oliver Hartman. The breaking
of this engagement made the trOus-
scan useless. But Miss Gould is not
am ordinary young woman in the mat
Ter of wealth or disposition, and a
new trousseau was determined upon.
Win gratifying results that can easily
be'Seen.
From a financial standpoint the
wedding will be a credit to the name

the family and friends and the other
incidentais will represent in the aggre-
,ate an expenditure Of something like

John H. Inman, who has built up

start. He dates his first money-mak-

York, directly after the war He was
a big, strongly built country boy from
the mountains of Tennessee with just
500 in his pocket when he reached the
metropolis. The first thing he did was
to hunt up Richard T. Wilson, who was
also Tennessee man, who had settled
in New York, and was rapidly building
fortune. Major Wilson had kindly
feeling for the young Southern boy,
and gave him repeated lifts, which
eventually enabled him to start in bust

Want But One County.

A remonstrance protesting against
the passage of an act to divide
Umatilla county is being generally
signed, says the Pendleton Tribune.
1t is addressed to the Oregon legis-
lature and states several explicit
reasons why the county should not
be divided. In the minds of those
who oppose division, there is no
necessity of forming another coun-
ty from one that is traversed by
railroads, and whose county seat
is accessible from all directions.
A population of 1900 is scarcely
sufficient to sustain one county, and
the formation of a second would In
crease the burden of taxpayers,
and be of no general benefit to the
the majority Of citizens Of this To-
cality."
We understand that Adams peo-
pie will circulate remonstrance
and it is unnecessary to say that
Athena will have one with mul-
titude of signers.

nitely if properly made and kept

stock was $4,000. E. w. And
rews, president of.the defunct bank
and of the Seattle National bank,
said the cause Of the failure was
the decrease in business and the
small number Of deposits in the
bank. He said that the population
of the town had dwindled down to
a few hundred, and the only time
there was any business done was
during the few months following
harvesting. He stated that the
bank was just struggling along,
and the directors thought it best to
close it up.

THE DEAD BURIED.
Sad Spectacle at she Funeral of the
Butte Firemen.

Never in the history Of Montana
has there been sadder spectacle
than that witnessed on January IS,
when the bodies of 80 victims of
the terrible disaster of Tuesday
were consigned to their last resting
place. All business was suspended
for the day. The military, with
muffied drums, the civic societies
and all the fire departments of the
state marched in the procession.
All buildings were draped in
mourning. Ten thousand people
followed the dead to the cemetery
and thousands lined the streets.
Nine hearses contained the bodies
of the dead fremen. One hearse
contained the bits and shreds Of
humanity over which wept the
widow and orphans of brave Fire
Marshal Cameron. Behind the
dead firemen rode James Flannery,
the sole survivor of the crew. Eight
unclaimed bodies were buried by
the relief committee. Several parts
of bodies were found on that day
half mile from the scene Of the
explosion. Hour after hour the
disaster has been putting on more
distressing proportions. The real
weight and extent of the terrible
calamity will never be known. The
list of the known dead has swelled
to 30, and there are at least fourin
the hospitals who cannot recover,
John Sloan, Charles Ashton, w. L.
Miles and William Bow. Others
were fatally injured. To the list Of
missing Charles Hoffbauer has beer
added. A few hours before the ex-
plosion he was up town ard pur-
chased new pair Of shoes, and on
his way home he evidently stopped
at the fire. One Of the new shoes
which he had under his arm, has
been found a quarter of a mile
away from the scene Of the catas-
trophe, but not fragment of Hoff-
bauer has been fonnd.

THEIR HEADS TO COME OFF.
Chinese Officers Who Showed Cow
ardice Condemned to Death.

The following advices from the
Orient have been received by the
steamer Empress of Japan:
The situation is becoming more
complicated since the arrival of
Viceroy Lui Kun Yih, Lii Hung
Chang's greatest enemy and head
Of the Human faction. The first
evidence Of Lui Kun Yih is the is
suing of a decree condemning Ad-
mirals Ting, Kung. and Taotai to
death, and all other officers in COM
mand of divisions yet alive who
showed cowardice, before, after, or
during the battle. BY this sweep
ing decree none of the admirals or
generals escape. The decree states
that as they are responsible for ne
cessafy fall of Port Arthur death
must be their penalty.
Officers have been sent after Ad-
miral Kung with instructions to
bring him back alive or leave his
dead body to the vultures. Kung
will surely be taken. He is in hi
ding at Yam Chow. Kung is a
brother of the Chinese minister
to England, and up to recent
date under Ii Hung Chang was a
very powerful politician at court.
Lui has selected Kung for his spe-
cial revenge on occount of his en-
nifty to Ii Hung Gang. Lord Ii

hiding and is in communication

cheat the executor as he is extrem-
ely proud and will not live to sat
isfy the hatred of his old enemy
