A firm has been organized in New
York TO put bindings on dress skirts.
They send for the skirts, clean them,
press them and rebind them with the
best yelveteen binding for Is cents and

skirt A similar concern in every city
should make a comfortable income once
the matter was brought to the notice of
women. A variety of dainty ac-
cessories of pretty summer gowns of the
nicer materials are collarettes, made of
white silk boiling, C@4uisitely sheer
and transparent. They are shaped like
very deep sailor collars behind, are cut
squarely across in front to make them
the width of wide plat down the

Worse Than Jail.

A slender little man with mis- hat
pulled over his eyes and his hands
buried In his trousers pockets lowered
uneasily about the door of the South
ern police station yesterday. His de-
lected countenance and nervous man
ner attracted the sergeant's attention.
Want 20 see any one?" inquired the
officer

man glanced uneasily up and down the
street
We'll, what are you hanging around

window and steal watch?"

officer.

That's burglary in the first degree"
That's tough, but guess I'll have

the cold perspiration off his face
Have you been burgling?"

yes; give me two blankets and lock
me up"
Tell me about it,
We'll, 1t was this way. I was
strapped and the old lady wouldn't give
me a cent out of the stocking that she
keeps hid, and she said she'd break my
neck if l soaked anything. After she
got asleep last night I slipped outside,
pried open the back window, crawled in
and stole my watch and chain Then I
took it down on Third street, and
soaked II for 50. Give me good, thick
blankets will you, sergeant?"
But man has a right to break into
his own house and steal his own
watch"
He has?" and the little man jumped
up in the air and cracked his heels to-
gether. That takes a load off my
mind" and he seized the officers hand
But your wife was up here and re-

her the truth"

From the Madras Standard

TONI the MdUTdS q.
During a recent religious festival at
Alvartirunagari, on the banks of the
Tambramini. a terribly tragedy was en-.
acted by an elephant. Like most large
temples this has its periodical festivals,
one of which has just been celebrated
Certain elephants were brought down
from Nunguneri and Tinnevelly for the
festivities of the occasion All went
smoothly till, unfortunately, the large
elephant of Nunguneri, being in a rut.
run amuck. The mahout unwittingly
took up little child (son Of the Temple
Darmakartha) and placed it in front of
him on the neck Of the elephant.
Alarmed az the state of the elephant,
the mahout endeavored to quietly pass
the child out of danger by handing il
to somebody behind. He was not quick
enough to elude the sagacity of the
elephant, which snatched up the child.
put it into his mouth, and began
munching it. The mahout, Mortified at
the sight, jumped down and tried TO ex-
tricate the child, which he succeeded
in doing, but not before the child was
well nigh dead. Indeed it only
breathed for a few minutes afterward.
and then expired. Enraged beyond all
bounds, the animal became furious, and
in its mad rage seized the mahout,
dashed him to the ground, and then
trampled out any little breath that
might have still remained in the body
And here comes strange and touching
incident. Reporting seemingly OF his
awful misdeed, the elephant gathered
up what was the moment before his
master, proceeded to his (the mahout's)
house, and, depositing his mournful
burden at his door, passed on. The
people generally, in great dread, closed
their doors and windows. The elephant
wildly rushed along the streets and
came to the temple, the door Of which,
too, had been closed. 1t thereupon
battered the door. and passing into the
enclosure, furiously attacked the little
elephant of Tinnevelly, which it
pierced with its tusks and soon killed.
Emerging thence, the elephant rushed
madly along the river close by, where it
began throwing mud and sand all over
itself. In the meantime, the police con-
stables had got their muskets loaded,
and, climbing out of danger, took pot
shots at the furious animal, which they
eventually succeeded in disabling and
ultimately killing.

POOR. BUT HONEST.
Bishop Potter So Declares Himself to a

Society Matron.
Last year Bishop Potter went out to
Tuxedo to confirm a class of young peo-
pie in the new church there A young
matron who had been a member of the
congregation of Grace Church while
the Bishop was it's rector, and had her
self been confirmed and married by
him, wrote and insisted that he should
stop with her during his stay at Tux
edo. He accepted. AS a particular
honor she adorned his room with an
elaborate toilet set of solid silver that
included more than dozen pieces The
Bishop came, confirmed the candidates
and went away. But the silver toilet
set could not be found. 1t was not on
the dressing table nor in the bath
room, and the matron's establishment
was great Her annoyance was almost
as great, and for two days she won
dered what could have become of the
set, and whether the Bishop had sup
posed it was a present. On the third
day she summoned up courage enough
to write and ask him il by mistake his
man Or one of the servants had packed
up the silver toilet set with his lug
gage, and 1t had been overlooked in
unpacking, etc. The Bishop answered
promptly, for the next day she received
this telegram: "Am poor, but honest.
Look in the table drawer" The young
woman did look, and the toilet set was
found there.
