In our local columns is an account
'of the killing of a negro named
Divide Belizaire by a band Of masked
men. The evidence brought out at
the examination held by Coroner
Gladu while placing the guilt on 10
enc, shows beyond the shadow of a
doubt that a cowardly, p, emiditated
aud unproked murder has been
committed by a gang of desperate
hoodlums bent on the shedding OF
human blood. The evidence shows
that this negro was shot down in
his own house where he had a per-
feet right TO be; that he was peacea.
bly, at home with his family when a
humber of armed men forced their
way into his humble cabin and kill
ed him under the very eyes OF his
wife and children, who unfortunate
ly were too frightened to recognize
any OF them. After being shot and
fatally wounded with a bullet 10 his
head and one in his lungs, he jumped
ont of bis house through the window
and walked a few feet away where
he was found the next morning a
corpse with his shot gun near by.
1t appears from the testimony of
the c%oroner's inquest that the party
Of men were searching for the negro
S~oulouque who seems to have given
ottense to some people in that Sec
ton, but we have failed to hear
any excuse ad7anced for the killing
of B~elizalre. What this poor negro
had done TO deserve such punish
ment no one seems to know. What
crime was he guilty of that he was
shown 80 little mercy? None that
we know of. lie was probably
killed for trying to defend himself
in his own home. Every thing
connected with this horrible mid
night tragedy points to it as a most
barbarous and revolving crime,

TWO SIGNS: "BDFoRE AND AFTER

Lately there have appeared some de-
servedly severe structures on the sa-
lacious stupidities of the roof garden and
variety theater entertainments. 1t was
gratifying, however, to have Mr.. Bru-
nellie of vaudeville fame, call my atten-
tion to a framed communication in the
stage entrance of Mr.. Proctors Twenty
third Street Theater in New York. 1t
was sort of proclamation to his artists,
which they were invited to study before
unpacking their trunks. In 1t Mr.. Proc
tor calls attention to the fact that "his
audiences were composed of ladies and
children; and in the interest of morality
I'D good taste suggestive remarks or
actions, vulgarity, songs or gags men,
tioning nationality or creed" were strict
ly forbidden. Not even a humble d-n
was permitted. Further, though Mr..
Proctor was satisfied that 1t was un&
necessary to request them mot to shoot
the pianist, for he would do his best"
they were not allowed to address this
august individual.
All that was refreshing. Then / wan
dered to the front of the Twenty third
street house and fen up against the pho
tographs of three young women, rather
thin, all in heap, doing rplits, and one Of
anmpler proportions who was pressing
court plaster to her forehead with her
shin bone. What can be Mr. Proctors
definition OF vulgar gesture ?"-Vogue.

A HARMLESS BUSINESS.


II have read few books more readable
from start to finish than DIR. George
Earnest Morrison's An Australian in
China " says Douglas Sladen in the
London Queen. AN Australian in
China is the account of journey which
DR.. Morrison took from Shanghai 10 Ran
goon, following the Yangtse-iItang as
far as 1t was possible to proceed by boat
and then proceeding on foot unarmed and
alone but for the coolies hired by the
way to carry his simple baggage. The
whole journey Of 5000 miles cost him only
Els, and 1t is of especial interest because
the route he took through Yunnan to
Bhamo, our last city in Burmah, was the
route which trade will have TO follow II
the trade of Yunnan is to go down the
Irrawaddy to Rangoon. or this, however
DR.. Morrison is skeptical. Tonquin. he
explains, is the natural outlet of Yum
nan, If the French do not drive trade
away by some act of folly. Mr. Morrison
started his long journey by taking steam
er to Ichang, the highest point on the
Yangtse-Kiang reached by steamers.
Among the many interesting incidents
told by Mr.. Morrison is the following:
Il Travelled as Chinese, dressed in
warm Chinese winter clothing. with pig
tail attached to the inside of my hat
1 could not have been more comfortable
1 had a small cabin to myself l had, OF
course, my own bedding, and by pay
ing a Mexican dollar day to the Chinese
steward, foreign chow was brought me
from the saloon. The travellers who cared
to travel in this way, to put his pride
in his pocket and a plgtail down his back
need pay only one-fourth of what it
would cost him tot ravel as an European
in European dress.
"But was found, unwittingly trav-
cling under false pretenses. When the
smart chief officer came for my fare
he charged me, 1 thought too little. I
expressed my surprise, and said that I
thought the fare was 81. So 1t is he
replied, but we only charge missionaries
IS, and I knew. you mere missionary,
even before they told me- How different
was his acuteness from that of the Chi
nese compradore who received me on the
China merchants steamer Hsin Chi, in
which l once made a voyage from
Shanghai to Tientsin, also In Chinese
dress The conversation was short, sharp
and emphatic. The compradore looked at
me searchingiy. What pigin belong your

ness? Humbiy / answered, My belong

LEWIS AND c1ARK's EXPEDITION.


Sioux City, Iowa, has been honorng the
memory of Sergt. Charles Floyd, of the
Lewis and Clark expedition, whose re-
mains were buried at that spot in 1884,
he having expired when the expedition
was ninety days out from st. Louis on its
transcontinental exploration. Sergt
Floyd's was the only life lost of that
memorable party, which travelled 5000
miles and back through a then unex-
p1ored wilderness, encountering untold
hardships and dangers-a feat which has
never been surpassed in the annals OF
exploration.
The ceremonies consisted in a rebm !al
Of the remains with appropriate services
and placing q slab where they lie. II
is further proposed to erect a monument
and to establish park of twenty-five
acres, to be known as Floyd park. The
committee was fortunate enough to Sc
cure the attendance of DIR. Elliott Coues,
the eminent historian of the Lewis and
Clarke expedition. In the evening a spe-
cial historical meeting was he'd under the
auspices of the Floyd Monument associa-
tion. Addresses were delivered by DR.
Coues on the Lewis and Clark expedition,
and by Prof. Butler of Madison, Wis,
on Sergt. Floyd and the discovery of
his manuscript journal among the Draper
collection. Sioux City has done we'll in
honoring the brave men who were the ex-
plorers and pioneers of the vast trans
Mississippi region, and whose achieve
ments were as daring and as brilliant as
any ever accomplished along the line
of exploration and discovery
DR.. Elliott Coues has just completed his
new edition Of 'Zebulon M. Pixies Elk,
plorations in the West and Southwest"
In 1t he has gone in great detail into the
headwaters of the Mississippi question
and of the claims made by explorers OF
ancient and modern times. Those inter-
ested in western history and discovery
are awaiting with interest the appearance
OF DR.. Coues' work. With his well known
thoroughness and skill he has sifted every
conceivable source of information on the
subject. and claims to have settled the
Mississippian question for all time.

IRISH LACE IN GREAT DEMAND.


Irish lace is the obesession of the hour
for all who must have the latest novelty,
because there is none to be had on this
side Of the water. Everybody has gone
mad to obtain it. Those recently re-
turned with it on their frocks are a thorn
in the side of those with a wardrobe
built on New York lines, lacking that
once belittled lace, which, being lacks
and lost. Why, then we rack the value"
One of the covetable gowns that has
made this stir has a superb whiteDuch-
eSse skirt, graceful as an inverted con-
volvulus, and quite as untrlmmed on the
edge. The low-necked bodice was cut
very straight in the back, but inclined to
V across the bust. The bodice was
covered with a deco.lete Irish lace bo-
lero, with basque ruffles from hip to
hip. Brouse front of yellow lisse plisse,
and from the decolletes a fall of the
priced lace. Immense elbow sleeves OF
white gros grain, brocaded with yellow
roses and draped in wings with fiounce
of lace Qrish point on the lower edge
falling over the elbow. White roses
were tucked into the folds Of these
sleeve-wings, and the decolletage on the
shoulders was finished by epaulettes of
them. The lace bolero was belted in
with white satin at the back slipping
into seams at the side, and fastened on
the left with a cluster of white roses.
Pearl necklace of fine inimitable rows,
with diamond Clasps. Diamond aigrette
for the hair. Long white gloves, held up
by jeweled arm-garter. white moire
ribbon, with diamond buckle, is the very
pratique invention to keep long gloves
where they belong, and to fasten the
demi-sleeve, so as to enable one to APP
gear on the street with corsage having
elbow sleeves.
These half-sleeves are very necessary
to those who require street and house
service out of their bodices and eschew
the extravaganza of long sleeves.-Vogue.
