Ones bonnet has much to do with
bringing out the virtues or otherwise,
not only of ones eyes and hair, but of
ones skin and the shape of ones head.
The round faced, plump beauty must
give up her ties unless they are of the
narrowest and looped with so much care
that the idea of framing the full moon
is not suggested. For her whose face
is slender (politeness gives that name
to thinness) there must be a soft,
full framing and broad loops that will
tone down all angles. She who is sallow
must admire rose, pale blue and hello
trope on other women, choosing golden
brown, that most charitable of tones,
deep crimson, and if light evening
color is required a delicate shrimp to
make the yellow of her skin white The
pale woman chooses rose, dark blue, all
reds, dark green, glowing purple and
black to gain color, while she of the
rosy cheeks selects pale blue, heliotrope,
olive, cream white and crimson, if she
wishes them not to look like roses, says
a writer in The Ladies' Home journal,
who adds, IF your eyes are dull, do not
make them seem more so by putting
sparkling jet or brilliant rhinestones
near them. -

he was heartily supported by Clement,
the influential metropolitan, SO long as
he accepted the wishes of Russia as
commands. When, however, Ferdinand
began to have more independent ideas,
he was deserted by Clement, who ap-
parently believes that the very best thing
Bulgaria can do is keep under the thumb
of the car.
Not long ago the national assembly
and Prince Ferdinand dispatched dep
utation which was expected to pave the
way for more friendly feeling on the
part of Russia. At the head of the
deputation was the Metropolitan Glenn
emit, and the alleged object of the visit
to Russia was to place on the tomb of
the late car beautiful golden cross as
a tribute of esteem from the Bulgarian
people. Clement is naturally very popu-
lar in Russia, and his deputation was
received with open arms. but his visit
only made Russia more firm in its re-
solve never to accept Prince Ferdinand
as ruler of Bulgaria.

A Merchant" of Charlotte has
issued ''sonnd money" pamphlet in
which is this:
The taxable basis of all the prop
erty in North Carolina
In 1873 was 1924, 821, 456
lu 1894 was 262, 1876, 816
1873 basis was deprecated currency,
1894 was gold. Considering that
the 1878 basis included all the lands
of the State and all the accumulated
wealth and capital amassed by our
forefathers and ourselves in all the
history of time previous to 1873,
1.-The crime of 1878" doesn't seem to
bave served us SO badly, as Senator
Butler would make US believe.
The inference the writer would have
us draw is, We suppose, that all the
wealth accumulated between 1878
and 1894 is due to the smiling face
of the gold eagle, and that the
reason We did Lot have greater
wealth up to 1878 was owing to the
frown of free silver. 1t is also true
that we bad a protective tariff,
1SS3-94, and Merchant" would
perhaps condemn that species OF
robbery. If SO, would he not say
that the wealth accumulated during
that time was earned in spite of the
protective tariffs and due to our
natural advantages as great and
rich country?
In other words, how great would
have been the wealth of this country
in 1894 if it had rot been on a gold
basis since 1873 Greatly much long
err? The argument of Merchant
is almost as trivial as il he had said
"There was comparatively little i'm
migration to North Carolina be.
tween 1873 and 1894; hence all our
prosperity is due to that fact; let US
prohibit immigra ton"
Merchant" generalizes from one
set of facts, ignoring scores OF others

In a system of education every
part Is ESSENTIAL, and the pupil who
for any reason gets behind his class
or who undertakes in after years to
study without the necessary elemen-
tary education, meets with almost
insurmountable difficulties and
suffers not only from lack of knowl
edge, but from repeated discourage
ments.
L. is, therefore, important for the
boy or girl who seeks higher educa-
ton to lay we'll the foundations.
Every effort should be made to i'm
press this upon their minds, for too
many children, instead of doing
present work, promise to do better
hereafter, a vicious habit of itself and
one viii, will get them into trouble,
for when they have made up their
minds to study they will find them
selves unable to do SO with good
results for want Of some elementary
knowledge. It is great mistake to
allow any sighting of primary
studies in the hope that they may be
made up afterWard or to seek q
child's advancement before he is pre-
pared for higher studies. No matter
where the school studies are to be
stopped, they should be complete TO
that point, thus insuring a firm
foundation for future work. The
pupil will not then have to reproach
himself with neglected opportunities
and sigh over "what might have
BEEN"

RULGARiA'S GREAT BISHOP.


Clement Is Power In Politics and
Truckles to Russian Favor.
The man to whom Bulgarians look for
a reconciliation with Russia is M. Glenn
ent, metropolitan of Tirnova. Pre-
vious to 1875 Bulgaria had been under
the Turkish yoke for five centuries, and
the massacre of Bulgarian Christians by
the troops of the sultan was one of the
causes that led Russia to declare war
against Turkey. Turkeys course against
Bulgaria. Montenegro, Roumania and
Servia somewhat resembled her present
course against Armenia. Russia s speedy
victory gained for Servia, Roumania
and Montenegro their absolute independ-
ence, and Bulgaria was also practical
~ lost. By the treaty Of Berlin, Bulgaria
was made a tributary principality under
the suzerainty of the sultan with a
Christian government, national militia
and the right to make its own laws. It
was also provided that prince of Bull
garia should be elected by the people
and confirmed by the sublime porte
with the consent of the powers.
In 1888 the Bulgarian national assem-
bly, revived the constitution of Tirnova,
and Alexander, the first prince elected
by the people. continued planning for
complete emancipation. This displeased
Russia, and Prince Alexander was kid
naped by Russian agents in 1886 and
forced to abdicate. Prince Ferdinand
was elected as his successor in 1887, and

casions except when full dress is de-
manded. In this connection it may be
we'll to state that jewelry is more in evil
dence than before in many years.
A striking feature of many of the new
bodices is the net or lace with which
they are covered. Lace, by the bye, is
playing an important part on evening
gowns and dinner dresses. A charming
evening gown of pink satin seen had a
band of narrow pearl embroidery cross
ing the shoulders and trimming the
skirt. Bands of guipure lace appeared
on the front of the decollete bodice cut
in an especially becoming shape and
finished at each corner with large bow
of deep red velvet. A pleasing gown for
the street had the hem of the skirt tuck
ed, the sleeves and vest set into kits
and the soft silk over bodice outlined
with colored embroidery traced with
sequins. The hat worn with this gown
was trimmed with ostrich feathers.
Now that every woman rides wheel,
tailors are busy devising more attractive
bicycling dresses. New Workers as a
rule wear skirts over the knickerbock-
ers. These cycling skirts are as difficult
to cut and properly fit as is the skirt to
a riding habit, but they can be made
not only comfortable, but natty in ap-
pearance. The very latest skirt is made
with loose front that can be buttoned
on either side when walking, but which
is left open when on the wheel.

BURNED AT STAKE.
Horrible Execution in q Texas Town
Witnessed by Thousands.


Witnessed by Thousands.
TYLER, TEX, Oct 3l.-For the
second time in the history of the
Lone Star State negro paid the
penalty for his brutal passion to>
wards a white woman by being
burned at the stake. Henry His
lard the negro who outraged, killed
and Horribly mutilated Mrs. Leon,
ard the nineteen year>old wife of a
prosperous farmer, was taken from
the officers by a mob of three hun,
bred armed men and vote taken as
to the mode of punishment. 1t was
unanimously decided to burn him
and he should suffer the penalty on
the public square of Tyler.
The procession estimated at near
ly 4 1000 pei sons, took up its march
for the main plaza in the centre of
the city, which was reached about
4 O'Clock. Immense crowds of Las
dies and children congregated and
awnings, carriages, trees and ada,
cent buildings vera converted into
grand stands At 4:3O a scsffold
was erected in the centre of the
square and wagons laden with kin
! ding wood, coal oil and straw were
, driven to the scene and placed in
position.
The negro was given an opportu>
! nifty to speak, but his words were in>
audible He was told to pray. He
mumbled some inarticulate words
at first, but towards the close his
voice became stronger and his ap-
peals to God for mercy could be
| plainly heard several yards away.
| After he had finished his prayer
| four men stepped forward and lash>
ed him (Hilliafd) to The iron rail
that extended through the plat>
form. Mr.. Bell, the husband Of the
murdered woman, was in front of
the scaffold and watched the prepa>
ratlons with eager anticipation.
| When the negro had been securely
bound by iron bales, Bell applied a
match to the funeral pyre which had
ward envelopiug the victim in sheets
| Of fire.
The writhing wretch begged for
mercy, but his appeals were met by
torture and he was not even permits
ted to burn at once. The fire was
frequently quenched, and after a
| lapse or lew moments started
again. From the time the match
was applied until death ended his
sufferings was exactly fifty minutes.
Each time the flames were ex>
tinguished it was evident that the
victim thought his tortue was at an
end and he begged to be released,
but in answer to his appeals a man
would run forward and again apply
the torch, Whenever this was done
those near the funeral pyre would

terested in the syndicate which is plan
ming to build the Distant Shore, as the
new challenger will be named.
Rose is well known on the other side
as a horseman and as the owner of the
fast yacht Satanita, which was designed
by J. M. Soper, the expert who has
been commissioned to build the Distant
Shore. A number of years ago Rose was
one of the notable athletes of Montreal.
He was a feet runner and ranked as the
best man at mile in the vicinity Of
Montreal. One of his opponents was the
late c. D. Armstrong, an athlete con-
sidered one of the fastest men in Canada
inside of 600 yards during his best days.
Rose is native of Montreal and is a
man about 40 years of age. His father
was born in Scotland, but was educated
in Canada, and there began his very
successful business career, the fruits of
which now enable his son to indulge in
the expensive luxury of international
yachting. Sir John Rose removed to
England about 10 years ago and assum-
ed the management of the Prince of
Wales financial affairs in the duchy of
Cornwall. He was a shrewd business
man, and, it is said, greatly improved
the financial condition of Albert Ed
ward during his regime in Cornwall
That his son is thorough sportsman is
evidenced by the fact that his challenge
is absolutely unconditional

higher education for women is all right

has never been of the opinion that Miss

course at Cornell university He has
two sisters and one brother, Sanger

twin brothers and will doubtless inherit
a large share of their fathers great for

and Miss Oglesby has been of long du-
ration, and it is said that but for their
youth the engagement would have been
announced several years ago. The we'd
ding will occur at Oglehurst and will,
without doubt, be the grandest affair Of
the kind ever held in Illinois.

What VIII Dressed Women Wear?

New Fabrics, Trimmings and Gowns.
What VIII Dressed Women Weare
New materials and new designs are
presented on every side. Beginning with
colors, it is already apparent that brown
in various shades and mixtures is IA
vorite. Black, too, is in evidence, espe-
cially for hats and bonnets with highly
colored garniture. The blues are out in
full force-in shades too numerous to
mention. Then there is the Russian
green that promises to have quite a run.
Velvet is if possible more fashionable
than ever. Velvet skirts and sleeves are
combined with silk waists and vice
versa Velvet capes and velvet blouses
are also in demand. The new silks are
heavier in texture and richer in effect
than those of last season. A favorite in
this line is peau de sole, which exhibits
the bright luster of satin without SO
much gloss. Bright colors are produced
in the new silks, and the blending of
several colors is as pronounced as ever.
Henrietta cloth is shown in many
shades. Mohair weaves are extremely
popular, and everybody admires the rich
shaggy plaid weaves sold under the name
of zibeline plaid. New Scotch tweeds are

dark shade predominates. Serges in all
weights and weaves are worn. What is
known as the cheviot serge bids fair to
become popular.
Sleeves continue to be prominent
feature; indeed many Of the new gowns
show skirts still wider and sleeves more
bouffant than ever. There is percepti
bic frightening of the shoulder line
which women inclined to comfort will
resent. Generally speaking, sleeves
match the skirt, but the bodice is of
different material.
There appears revival of ruches,
square bows, wide collars and wide rib
bons. Belts and girdles remain in fash
ion, and consequently the demand for
buckles of every quality and description
is on the increase. Silver buckles are
the most useful, being adapted to all &C.

she is also an accomplished pianiste. At
Oglehurst, the palatial home of her

The Southern planters generally,
taken in all the States, are believed
to be really in a better, sounder con-
dition than they have been since the
great war ended in 1865. The
judicious diversifying of crops, which
the newspapers through the years
taught and insisted upon, has proved
success and brought good returns
to the farmers and this in spite of
bad laws and very low prices. There
is steady development in the South
from week to week. New Industries
are reported almost daily.
