there are some who frequent both parlor

IMMORTALITY IN DOLLS.
An Absurd Episode of the Social
Purity Movement in london.

Lady's Pictorial.
Mrs. Ormiston Chant, who, / regret to
say. is rather seriously i'll, draws the line
at flesh and blood, and is not prepared to
find immortality in dolls. Such a. declaration
might seem superfiuous, but it is NOT. for
there is evidently no limit to the fanat-
icism of the extreme purity party. | am
told that recently Mrs. Chant received an
indignant letter, calling her attention to
some attractive dolls on view at a we'll
known West-end house. AS 1T is often the
wish of a customer to have a doll dressed.
or to dress it herself, in some special fash
ion, these r~osy-cheeked, blue-eyed young
ladies of kid and wax and stufing were
airily CARRIED in long flowing tresses. sweet
smiles, and their native worth. A prudish
visitor, however, evidently thought that
Worth, of Paris, should rather have been
enlisted in the cause of modesty. and, in
credible as it may appear, begged Mrs.
ests of morality. Mrs. Chant promptly de-
clined, but a letter was dispatched by the
firm, making an appointment with the
stern moralist who objected to the dolls,
which was kept by a huge footman, appar-
emily sent as a pioneer or advance guard,
who very properly, from his point of view,
refused to say by whom he was sent. The
whole episode would be too absurd if it did
not prove how extravaganza are the ideas
of the extremists IN the social purity
party, and what grave risks the most inof-
fensive people might run If such fanati-
cism were to be allowed its own way un-
controlled.

were regularly employed before 1853, when
tradition tells US that Benjamin Franklin.

them in Philadelphia, and possibly in New

1862, when the Philadelphia postmaster adj

that patrons must call for their letters at
FinIay. a storehouse of sound Information
tells us that Boston had no letter carrier
in liza. OF New York he says that soon
after the arrival OF a mail the letters are
quickly delivered by a runner" which
means messenger or letter carrier.

The Hawaiian Senate Confirms Him
Minister to Washington.
The following are the latest Hawaiian
advices:
HONOLULU, June 27.-The senate yes
terday confirmed the appointment of Will
liam r. Castle as minister to Washington.
The closest secrecy is observed as to the
nature of the committees report, the en-
suing discussion and the vote.
There is good reason to believe that the
committee reported unanimously in Castles
favor. Undoubtedly there was a warm con-
tention by senators. Minister Hatch is
said to have urged strong reasons for the
confirmation. There is definite repor.
that the vote in his favor was 10 to L.
Mr.. Castle has a large body Of warm
friends and admirers The opposition to aim
has been very strenuous The opponents
have been extremely cautious about speci-
Tying in print any particular grounds of OBJ
lection to him. Castle received influential
support from the native element, who re-
gard him as sympathetic with themselves,
and feel that he would not neglect their
interests in any negotiations at Washing
ton.
President Dole has named the five re-
naming members of the council of state as
follows: Chas. NJ. Cook, American; Joseph
Mendonca, Portuguese; John Emmelutha,
American; T. B. Murray, American; Henry
Smith, Hawaiian The last-named will rot
be likely to qualify for serving by resigning
mis- present Office as clerk of the supreme
court. AS the names now stand there are
on the council six Americans three British,
three part Hawaiians, one full Hawaiian,
one German and one Portuguese
The council will probably be soon called
upon to assent tov some pardons of insur-
gents.

Policeman Dan. Williams. who is known
as the"drunmer boy of the Rappahan-
mock and Policeman Marks made
speech, which was heard by no one other
than himself and the one who raised the
flag. This morning the bright colors gave
the building the appearance OF participating
in The celebration, hut the repetitions of
profanity and indecent language, which
was worse than the language of the pro-
verbal sailor, were enough to crack the
walls of the old church edifice. Judge
kimball did not celebrate before reaching
the court. He favored the flag raising
celebration rather than the setting off OF
frecrackers, but there were before him a
number of persons who had celebrated in
various ways and whose celebration had
been suddenly terminated by the iron hand
of the law.

mans response.
