yoke effect about the throat, or it hangs
from an inserted yoke The fuIness lies
in three bexpleats, the central one
drawn fiat and close to the figure and
disappearing under the belt with no bag
at all, the two side pleats hanging with
exaggerated straightness and making
a deep turn back to the belt with a
stiff overhanging effect. In striped
material the bodice hangs straight from
the shoulders, the stripes horizontal,
and the effect being of two great pleats,
or almost jacket sides, the space be-
tween being taken up with a narrow
close,drawn pleat, the stripes running
crosswise.
Muslin, gauze and very light silk are
deliberately shocked, tiny tucks being
employed as smoking sometimes. A
very pretty design has all the fullness
drawn into bands of perpendicular
tucks, each band being separated by
horizontal putting. The bands of tucks
make a yoke effect in caps over the
shoulder whereby the fullness of the
sleeves is confined in tucks to the bust

There is said to be a scheme on foot
to import Japanese laborers into this
country. The Labor commissioner OF
California has discovered some CORE
spondence bearing on such project
and has submitted it to the Washing
ton authorities. But the correspond
ence as presented to the National gov
eminent shows that the promoters of
the scheme do not intend to subject
themselves to prosecution for violation
Of the contract labor law. They are
to have the laborers landed at San
Francisco with sufficient money in
their pockets to pay their way and
save themselves from being treated as
paupers. After getting ashore the new
arrivals are to be taken in charge by
their employers. The latter win sim
ply happen upon the scene and en-
gage the Japanese who wish to go
to work to come with them. The most
interesting feature of this bit of news
Is the authorized statement that the
treasury department cannot prevent
these coolies from immigrating to this
country. The Chinese Exclusion act
merely keeps out the Chinese.

The Silly Season.

1t is on in full sweep. A reporter In
Connecticut has found python there
that MIXED COWS. As if to add insult to
injury, the python, after he had MIXED
one COW, twined himself around her and
crushed her bones. She was found lying
in barnyard, with her bones crushed,
the reporter says. Why the snake did
not swallow her is not told If he had
only known that a newspaper reporter
would write up his exploits, undoubted-
" he would have finished the job. The
irate farmer whose COW S bones had been
crushed in got together his neighbors
and followed the trail of the serpent.
They went on till they reached the gar
den patch Of another farmer " 30 was
mourning the devastation the creature
had wrought among his small fruits.
The snake, he said, had eaten not less
than 100 pounds of strawberries. There
was nothing mean about that omnivor-
Gus python. He would just as soon eat
Strawberries as cows.
The neighbor whose garden had
been invaded joined the wrathful host
and proceeded on the trail They
came to the end of it in course Of time,
only to see the python look around at
them, wag his head, smack his lips with
demoniacal grin and disappear beneath
the cool waters of a river. He needed
something to cool himself off after his
big meal Another silly season story

Uniformity In State Laws.

Uniformity in the laws of the states
is desirable in all particulars. The in
tention Of the prison congress to urge
the adoption Of uniform laws regarding
capital crimes is one to be commended.
If it shall decide that capital punish
ment may be abolished and work to Sc
cure that result, it will find many sup
porters If it shall decide that the death
penalty should be continued, then it is
desirable that the mode Of killing shall
be uniform and humane. 1t may be
hoped the congress can show convincing
reasons for the abolition of the death
penalty. P;ttsburg Dispatch.

New Method OF Stealing Diamonds In

leaving his victim PROSTATE by fright
The burglar was a cOlored man, and
his act is considered by the police one
of the most daring ever perpetrated in
Chicago. The burglar gained an en-
trance to the fat by prying knife in
the casing of the front door and spring
ing back the lock which held it fast
He first made a search of the library
There in a writing desk he found Mrs
Fox's watch. Finding nothing else, he
took chair and placed it against the
door of the room in which Mrs. Fox
was asleep. Then he stealthily drew
himself up through the transom and let
himself down into the room.
He crept to the bed where Mrs Fox
was soundly sleeping, and pushing her
face upon one side clipped off one of her
earrings. The woman awOke almost III
stantly. Her eyes were heavy with sleep,
but seeing a man with a knife in his
hand she realized her perilous situation
and gave vent to a subdued cry, at the
same time holding her hands to her face
to protect herself.
"Don't scream! If you utter sound,
I will kill you Ike dog" said the
burglar, and after clipping off the other
earring, pulling two rings from her fin
gers and taking her pocketbook from
under her pillow he disappeared with
the warning: "You keep quiet, or I'll
Plug you. If you value your life, don't

The Mora Claim.

In the year 1870 the Spanish govern
ment seized, without shadow of right,
the property Of an American citizen,
Antonio Maxine Mora, in Cuba. The
citizen complained to his government
at home. A claim for indemnity was
thereupon made against Spain.
After the usual method Of claims
against a government, the matter Jagged
and hung fire till 1885. Then during the
first presidency Of Grover Cleveland,
while B&yard was secretary of state, the
claim was again presented, and Spain
promised to pay 81, 800, 0C0.
So the matter has stood ever. since.
Spain promised to ray, but never did.
When a request was made that she settle
up, she presented as an offset some in
juries and losses sustained by Spanish
subjects in Florida during our civil war.
The United States replied that she was
prepared to arbitrate these Florida
claims and would pay whatever dam
ages, if any, were proper. Meantime,
however, the Mora claim had been &C
knowledged by Spain and her promise
had been made to pay. When Spain set
tied that, this government would arbi-
trate the Florida matter.
This was just and square. Still, how
ever, Spain did not pay. She took refuge
in si1ance r. is this Mora claim Of 81 -
800, 600 for payment of which the
United States has now made peremptory
demand. Naturally the demand has ex-
cited ccmmotion in Madrid, particularly

bellion, it might have an important eff
