Washington, Jan. 2s.--Capt. Henry w.
Howgate was placed on trial in criminal
court No. 1 before Judge McComas this
morning on charges of forgery and en-
bezzlement while disbursing officer Of
the United States signal Office. The court
room-the same where Guiteau was tried,
condemned and where the Pollard-Breck-
inridge trial was held-was not crowded,
but a large number of spectators were
present. A jury was secured without
much difficulty, and the distict attorney
explained the nature of the specific
charge on which Capt Howgate had been
indicted, which was that he had secured
government money through forging a
voucher from the Western Union Tele-
graph Company, and was therefore guilty
Of forgery and embezzIement. The evi-
dence was then proceeded with.

STRANGE ART OF TELEPATHY

rimonial situation-Mrs. Paran Stevens
Has Inaugurated Legerdermain Parties,
with Mind Reading and Mild Form of
Hypnotism These Assemblies are Popular

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-Society folks must
have something besides social functions to
interest them. Palmistry and astrology have
both had their sway for two seasons. There
is not fashionable woman but knows her
future, her fate, and her disposition-that is,
if she brought a devotees faith to the science.
The present vogue is teepathy. People
want to see il transmission of thought is pos
sible. and if they can compel others to do
their bidding by an unspoken desire.
Mrs. Paran Stevens pays large sums OF
money TO noted coniurers for an appearance
at her entertainments, amusing the guests by
all that is wierd in mind reading and feats of
legerdemain. 1t is, therefore, natural re-
suit that fashionable attention should turn
oward psychical experiments. These even
ings devoted to teepathy at fashionable
houses are the outcome.
The regulation exquisite dressing, elabor-
ate supper. and Lander's orchestra are the
accessories for "telepathy party"
The modus operandi IS TO arrange the
guests in a circle. holding each others hands.
Perfect silence is observed. Tho leader. one
who is held to possess unusual power, puts
her mind upon certain thought, and she
must will it that the working OF her brain Is
transmitted to the person whose hand she
holds. The receiver of this thought adds
something to it and in turn sends it on
through the electric current OF her fingers to
her neighborS brain. This transmission is
continued around the entire circle. When
the last guest is reached the hands remain in
touch, while each person relates the product
of her brain, and TO be up to professional
standards the thought should have grown as
naturally rs an acorn to an oak.
This successful result is what the women

A COUNTRY MAID.

Her eyes the sun-kissed violets mate,
And fearless is their gaze;
She moves with graceful careless gait
Along the country ways
The roses blushing in her cheek
That Ger decay nor fade,
Her laughter gay, her words bespeak,
A simple country maid.
No flashing gems adorn her hair,
Nor clasp her lily neck,
No seweled circlets, rich and rare,
Her sun-browned hands bedeck;
But pearly teeth through lips as red
AS reddest rubies gieam;
The tIesses DER her shoulders spread
A golden mantle seem;
Her loo s are kind, and sweet the smile
That sparkles in her eyes:
Her mind her heart are free from guile;
She is not lea, ned or wise.
No worldly art, no craft has she
Acquired, her charms to aid;
And yet she stole my heart from me,

PARIS, Jan. 19-When a deputy an the
French chamber the ether day proposed the
tax on corsets as being market staple, he
only put in prominence the fact that there
was never moment. perhaps. in the history
OF French dress when the fashionable woman
could SO easily dispense with the cssset as
now. Blouses are the only wear ethe 2asEQ
ionable woman, and a corset uDderA ka

could be abandoned and leave the effect -
the waist unchanged. The proposition was
stupid. French politicians seem not to keep
up with the dress movement any more It
was not thus short-sightedly that Richelieu
ruled in trade interests. when he decreed that
the French should not wear lace, but might
wear ribbons. II the chamber wants the
womens aid to augment the exchequer IL

On the blouse. and all ingenuity Is absorbed

creation for every new gown. The skirt can
be left pretty much to ITSELF since its form
has become fixed for some time TO come, and
1t is mostly left innocent of trimming; but
among all these blouses, there is In common
only the neck band and belt, which are in
variably of velvet, shirred and fastened be-
hind with the gathered fanges that have SO
much pleased for more than a year. 1t Is
easy to vary this effect because, as the mate
rial Is not stretched over the figure, it takes
decoration like any Oriental dress that falls
loose; whatever is done to it is in the way OF
enriching the fabric.
