bracelets Once More.

A great hope is being cherished that
women are inclining to bracelets once
more. This seems not improbable. The
decree has gone forth that sleeves are to
bo scarcely below the elbow. This being
trne there is considerable expanse left
for ornament, for the gloves cannot be
always worn. In any case bracelets are
cheaper than gloves, and women, though
on pleasure bent, still have frugal minds.

n1sr,sF rRo,I OTHER WORLDS.

Dr. Thomas S. Blair, of Harrisburg,
Pa. in the Medical News advances the
sensational theory that sudden and de
structiye epidemics Of disease are
CHASTITY visitors from other worlds. He
contends that the thousands Of tons
of meteoric matter and cOsmic dust
which are annually precipiJated upon
the earth inHict upon this planet a
host of life germs Of non-terresuial
origin. Recent Investigations have
proved colored SHOWS to be filed with
organisms" states DR.. Blair, "and the
Polar SHOWS are said to have yielded
more than three hundred different life
forms. These organisms can hardly
be produced in our atmosphere, mill
ions of hundredweights Of them, ac-
cording to Dana, having fallen since
the DAYS Of Homer, who first described
them in the uiad.'" DR.. Blair feels
sure that not only the mysterious
..Black Plague of the Fourteenth Cen
fury and the old type Of spotted
fever" arose from non-mundane
source: but he assigns to these IN
earthly microbes the blame for the pc
culiar epidemic called cerebro-spinal
meningitis which prevailed between
the years 1866 and 1861 and goes SO
far as to assert that his theory throws
light on other local epidemics such as
those of typhoid, diphtheria and ia
grippe"
If this theory be accepted the dying
out Of plaques would then be ascribed,
in the words Of the Doctor, Ito the
earth swinging out Of range of the
cosmic dust carrying the germs, which,
not finding proper environment on the
earth. ceased TO multiply, and so be-
came extinct"

REV. j. NJ. STEPHENS RESIGNED.

The Passionate of the Bridgeport Presby-
terrain Church-Mutual Dissatisfaction OF
Pastor and Congregation.
Rev. J. NJ. Stephens has formally re
signed the pastOrate Of the Bridgeport
Presbyterian Church, owing to mutual
dissatisfaction on the part OF the con-
gregation and the minister. While TO
many persons the matter occaSioned no
surprise, others received their first in
timation of the pastors intentions dur
ing his discourse Sunday morning,
when he took occasion TO refer = the
causes which led to his resignation.
it therefore created something OF a SEN
sation, and was freely discussed dur
ing the day and on yesterday.
1t appears that several influential
members of the congregation have been
dissatisfied with Rev. Mr.. Stephens for
some time, and limited rather broadly
that they would be pleased to accept
his resignation. On the other hand,
the pastor has been far from pleased.
His friends say that he accepted the
call to the Bridgeport church with the
understanding that the church debt
was provided for, and the congregation
practically free from debt; and that the
provision for paying off the Indebted
ness was inadequate, and there are
now liabilities aggregating $4,000 or
$4,000.
The pastor was also annoyed and dis
pleased regarding the wOrldliness of
the young members of his cOngrega-
ton. lie did not approve Of many
forms of social amusement, notably
dancing. and the fact that some Of the
young ladies and young men indulge
in that amusement, was a frequent
cause for complaint on his part.
Last night a congregational meeting
was held at the church. Mr.. James
Duncan presided. and in the absence
of Clerk J. w. Scott, Mr. VIM. H. Clark
acted as secretary. While waiting for
the pastor. r. r. Barrett and Addison
H. Blackford were elected trustees, to
succeed Ross Alexander and Johnson
Brown. both of whom are absent from
the city. II. NJ. Clark was elected
treasurer. and VIM. II. Clark clerk.
John A. Topping made statement for
the trustees, showing the financial con-
ditiOn of the church.
Mr.. G.. c. Mckee then moved to ac-
quiesce with Rev. Mr.. Stephens in ask
ing the Presbytery to dissolve the pas
toral relationship. On this motion the
vote was: aye 43, no ~, blank 2. Mr..
c. NJ Fisher stated that it was the pas
tors wish to have a unanimous vote,
and upon his motion the previous mo-
ton was declared unanimously car
ried. Messrs John T. Scott, George c.
Mckee and Mrs. J. c. Heinlein were
appointed a special committee to pre-
pare resolutions stating the reasons for
the dissolution Of the pastoral relation
shin.

According to the Hartford newspa-

Connecticut folks. 1t is said he failed
to find the hand of Gov. Coffin at the
first essay, and was compelled to plunge
down in a second effort and draw it
by an heroic lift to the desired eleva-
ton. He badly confused the average
legislator, and even the reporters were
in one instance perplexed by this in

While rbe markets on all lines are
strengthening and prices are advanc-
inc to figures that Indicate a returning
wave Of prosperity. wages have stead
fv kent mace with and even led the
PROCESSION. The Boston Globe recalls
that as early as month ago list OF
something like a dozen great manufae-
turing firms was published as having
raised wages from 10 to Is per cent
Every week since then the list has
been sweued by the same or larger
number of firms.
How marked the contrast with what
followed the Mckinley bill, which be-
came a law on October s, 1890 Fol-
lowing that measure came a Ions list
of reductions in wages, which LOOKS
striking placed by the side of the pres
ent advances.
The reduction of 10 per cent IN the
Pennsylvania coke regions will be re-
called. which followed tnt p"SS"7O va
the Mckinley bin aud created the
bloody strike of 1900 coke workers
This same region. following the pass
age of the present Wilson BILL has
witnessed an increase of Is per cent
in wages.

- rIHnr IN KENTrCKY.

It is probable that Kentucky will
tread close upon the heels of Illinois
in making a test of the silver question
in it's next election campaign. The
Democrats down there are already
split and lined up for the fight. Edi-
tor Watterson and the Courier-Journal
have come out on the anti-free silver
side United States Senator Lindsay
is with him, and it is said that Secre-
tary Carlisle viii make a campaign to
re-enter the United States Senate on
the same basis. On the silver side are
Senator Blackburn. whose term will
expire in 1897, who has challenged the
whole State to a discussion on the sub
jecc and viii fight for a reelection to
the Senate on that line, and the brill
liant eX-Congessman, Ex-Governor and
now Professor Proctor Knott.
1t is needless to say that the fight
viii be a hot one. The balance Of
talent appears to be against silver,
though Joe" Blackburn and Proctor
Knott are exceedingly brilliant and
effective campaigners.
Col Henri Watterson to illustrate
the strength the hold silver has on the
people of the west tells a story con-
corning the funeral of a distinguished
siIverite who died recently at Cripple
Greek. The whole town turned out
to pay its respects to the memory of
the deceased. whose demise was sim
cereIy mourned. The good preacher
felt it devolved on him to make a long
and impressive service. He talked for
an even hour and a half before the
final amen. Just as this word left his
mouth the corpse rose out of the
coffin, pulled savagely at his hair, and
said: All that talk, and not one
word about silver"

A dispatch says of the work now be-

at the Mongahela Tinplate works at
Pittsburg:
Ii is hard and rough. The women wear
great leather shields ON their hands,
leather aprons and hOb-nailed shoes to
protect them from the heat and metal.
The women are paid Sl.JO day. Men re-
ceivel for the same work Si35.
No one grudges these women their
pay. but at the same time this is not
the sort of work at which women
should be employed in this country.
True it may be no worse than drudge
ny at the washtub and with the scrub
bing-brush. but the spectacle is not
pleasant to the average American.
The Commissioner of Internal Rev
enue has decided that gains from the
pool-box. ETC., should be included as
income for the year in which they are
received, and no deduction can be al
lowed for money lost at gambling"
The income tax will thus fall alike
upon the loser and the winner, who
must both pay taxes on the same sum.
