correspondent of the Congregationalist
 says: There are many points in the
 court etiquette of Spain that make 1t
 hard to be boy king and harder still
 to be the boy kings loving mother. As he was born king little Alfonso had to have a household of his own
 with his own suite of rooms. He can not even dine at the same table with his mother, nor can she perform for him those tender little offices that mothers delight in and children find so com forting. The little king has also to go through with tedious State receptions. which weary him sadly and sometimes try his childish patience beyond en- durance. Once at a grand church func- tion the baby sat upon his nurses knee all dressed in white, as patient as baby could be. A bishop had been hold ing forth for a good hour, and every body was doubtless waiting for him to close. At last the little royal listener could bear it no longer, for he is high strung little man, and with glance of indignant despair in the direction of the talker, he clutched at his own pretty white bat and cast it upon the floor. When his nobles were paying their com pliments to him on his second birthday their king entertained himself by jump ing up and down the steps of his throne.

The woman who has a long, flat part, or, in other words, a head that is long from front to back before 1t begins to round, is the lucky woman these days, no matter what the phrenologists may think of her.
 Large hats have so long depended for their showiness upon rich plumes, that a hat like that the artist sketches here is novelty It looks somewhat like birds nest, but is made of black velvet with a gathered brin. of the same. A large bird with spreading wings is placed directly in the center, with two aigrettes overlapping all. In the back there are two or three rosettes of ma genta velvet,
 A few freak effects in veils are shown with fur at the edge There is no ex- cuse for this, especially at this end of the season, except mad desire to pay as much as possible for everything. Fur at the edge of the net cannot add to the veils becomingness and is sadly in the way of fastening the same Some veils are shown with a band of fur at the upper edge, which is intend ed to act as finish for the hat brim, but it is much more likely to interfere with the general effect of the hat trim ming and to be clumsy as part of the veil.

 as a dash of puppyism is an excellent quality in a junior officer, so shade of physical consciousness in an officer of high rank Is certain to give a tone not only to his own carriage and demeanor, but to the troops he may command.

 General Hancock's habit of swearing was well known General Walker, while he does not excuse 1t, speaks very feelingly on the subject, and one can not but admit the force of his argu- ments Whatever may be the occa- sions of civil life,' he says, mo one who knows much of the tremendous eXigen- cies of campaign and battle will judge very harshly of some extra vehemence of language on the part of a command CT who feels that the lives of his men, and perhaps the destinies of his coun- try, hang upon movements which he sees in danger of being defeated by the stupidity, the heedlessness or the indo- lence of his subordinates.
 Hancock" said General Grant, stands the most conspicuous figure of all the general officers who did not ex- ercise separate command. He com manded a corps larger than any other one, and his name was never mentioned as having committed in battle a blum der for which he was resnonsihle.n

F1SHLON NOTES.
A Hat Like , Rlrd,s Nest.

The little aigrette theater bonnet that
 was so becoming a few months ago looks
 quite old fashioned now. According to present standards the very prettiest thing in theater headdress is a flat Greek band of steel or pearl that sets on the top of the head, curving to al- most line with the top of the ears. Here the ribbon, which passes under the band, appears in a pair of loops, one laid over the other, the under one fitting the head A bunch of flowers may be tucked between the loops and sometimes spray hangs down prettily almost to the neck. Again. two little tips are set upright at the extreme end of the band on both sides, but the tips are so tiny and the ends of the band come so low that the tops of the feath- CTS do not reach level with the top of the head. The right place for the band

Hon. R. Minor waIlace's Lecture.

Those who attended the lecture of Hon. k. Minor Wallace ut Merrill In stitute last evening were treated to one of the most classic and figurative lectures ever delivered in that build ing. Mr. Wallace dealt with his sub- feet, "Prentiss and Grady" in most entertaining way, portraying wildly their depths of learning, beauty and force of speech and undying love for their country. He traced the parallel ism between their lives, and recited extracts from their speeches which readily showed their penetrative minds and ready wit. In closing, his flights of eloquenee. embellished by figurate language and varied and copious diction even exemplified the 0ratory of the men of his subject.
 However, the modulations of Mr. Wallace's voice might be improved upon, as at times it was difficult to discern whether parts of his lecture were the words of Prentiss, Grady, or his own. Neither does he recite an anecdote naturally and the tale loses it's desired effect. Both these defects, though, will doubtless be rectified with practice, and Mir. Wallace bas a bright future before him as a lecturer and orator.

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-Preliminary ef- forts are being made in this city towards organizing 8 switchmen B union, national in it's scope, to osuper- eede the late Switehmen's s Mutual Aid Association, now dismembered through mismanagement. Among tie promoters of the movement are many men formerly prominent mem- bers of the old association. A local union had been temporarily organ ized, and if this acquires numerical and financial stability it is planned by the members to spread the union over the lending lines out of Chicago, east and west A circularletter to be sent to switchmen the country over is now being prepared; in it the fact "a urged upon the men that, although Ain point of numbers they outnumber
 ngfneers, fireman, conductors and others branches of the railroad ser vice, they are now without organiza- ization of any kind, except as here and there local union of the old Switchmen' Mutual Aid Association has been kept alive. 1t is understood that the sentiment of the organ ization one of mutual aid and to have a strong widows and orphans bene- ficiary feature attached.

4 Railroad Commission.

The Little Rock Gazette says: Arkansas is probably going 10 have a railroad commission at the expense of the railroads. The Robinson com mission bill has been favorably re- ported by the House Judiciary Com- mittee and at an early date it will
 be taken up and passed, SD its advo- cates claim. There was struggle in committee over the measure. Col.
 Dan W. Jones, representing certain
 railroad interests, appeared before
 the committee and argued at length against the Constitutionalitv of the bill, passing his objections on the ground that the Constitution neither warrants the creation of the offices proposed nor the voting of eompen- sation. The feature proposing that
 the railroads pay the Commissioner's salaries he regards as rank discrim- ination. The Judiciary Committee. however, could not see it that way. as only one of them voted against a favorable report. Hon. Joe r. Rob-
 inson, of Lonoke county. author of
 the bill, advocated the merits of his
 measure in an elaborate speech,
 which is highly complimented by
 those who heard it. The bill is framed upon the lines of a similar law in vogue in South Carolina. It
 is understood that potent lobby
 will be set against the measure

Advertising one of the Secrets of Success


 "rrilby'' the novel by Du Maurier, is now the sensation of the hour, and is more discussed, perhaps, than any other book of the present day. Is it because of it's unusual literary merits? No; for there are other of books that surpass it in merit whose authors are almost unknown to the common herd. The popularity of Trilby is due to the fact that over modest per sons, after reading il, publicly declare they have done so, but say that it 'brings the blush of shame to their cheeks when they admit the fact. y Curiosity prompts these kind of people to read novels that are called naughty and preached against from the pulpit. Like Eve, they Thus it is, that Trilby has been ad- vertise all over the land, from pulpit fire-side and press, until the curiosity of the public has been aroused by adverse criticism on account of the "altogether" of the book, and people buy and read it, who never bought a novel in their lives before. This ad- vertising of Trilby has given its author, Du Maurier, an income of over $25, 1000 per year from it's sales. Who is it that says that advertising does not DaV2
