FASHION IN OLD JERUSALEM.

The Jewesses of Ancient Times Were Cor
!. ,geously Arrayed Indeed.
As far back as seven centuries before
the Christian era there were very gayly
dressed women in Jerusalem. The
Prophet Ezekiel tells of them. They had
garments of silk adorned with broidered
work. Their bodies Were swathed in fine
linen. They had shoes Of badger skin.
They wore ornaments of gold and sill
yer, rings in the ears, bracelets On the
wrists, chain around the neck, jewel
over the brow and a crown upon the
head.
The prophet speaks Of the earrings
which were worn by the women of Je-
rusalem, but these ornaments were worn
by Jewesses ages before the time Of
Ezekiel, even in the days Of Moses and
earlier yet. There were earrings among
the other gifts in the oblation given to
Moses, as described in the book Of Num-
bers. The first Biblical reference to
them is in the part of Genesis which
tells how Rebekah obtained as gift a
golden earring Of half a shekel weight"
from Abraham's servant. who put it
upon her face" At a later period the
patriarch Jacob procured all the ear
rings which belonged to his household
and hid them under an oak tree. Sub
sequently to that time earrings are fire.
quently spoken of in the Bible. Even
Job, the patient man Of w, must have
owned a lot Of them in the latter part Of
his life, for when all his brethren and
all his sisters and all his acquaintance
came to comfort him under his attic
tions "every one Of them gave him an
earring Of gold
In the very early periods Of Jewish
history women seem to have been as
fond of dress and decorations as they
are in modern times. When the daugh-
tiers Of Jerusalem were appareled and
bejeweled in the way described by
Ezekiel, their garments and ornaments
must have been nearly as expensive as
those Of the grand DANES who now shine
in society. The wearing of ''divers col
ors, however, does not seem to have
been a mark Of honor.-New York Sun.

She Didn't Know.

Ny friend Mrs. B. is one of those
good natured women who are always
wanting to make other people comfort
able. She happened to be in the railway
station the other day; man she knew
came in. He said he was going to Pitts
burg. Now, it happened that Mrs. B. :,
whose husband is a director, knew the
conductor of the Pittsburg train. He
passed through the waiting room just
then, and Mrs. B. called to him.
Conductor, said she, "this is my
especial friend, Mr.. Smith. He is going
on your train, and want you to show
him every attention possible.
The conductor, of course, said he
would, but when he went away Mr..
Smith turned to Mrs. B., with sickly
smile. @ tx ,.j' ~.

THE Fight is on between the silver
men and the gold men, and il proba-
bly, viii be fought to a finish this time.
The more honest men on both sides
admit that they are looking out for
and working in their W interests;
that in the grand struggle In the in
terest OF self their opponents have just
as many rights rs they have. The sill.
yer men are looking out FOR the inter
ests of the great mass OF the poor and
the moderately we'll OFF people, while
the gold men are looking out for the
interests Of the vast masses OF accu-
mulated capital. The b%latherskites
and the dcmagogues on both sides are
busy calling their opponents hard
names and charging them with yari-
Gus kinds OF dishonesty, but such talk
as that proves pothlng and settles no
question 10 controversy. The ques-
ton DOW TO be decided Is caa the
great numher Of people who viii be
benefited by The free coinage ofsilyer
outyote the accumulated wealth that
is benefited by the gold standard?

There is a new railroad project 10
the air and Lordsburg is likely soon TO
have another railroad. The Detroit
copper company has put surveyors in
the field to seek a route by which Mo-
renci can be connected directly with
the outside world. The surveyors will
look up a route from Morenci to Solo
knoxville, also one from Morenci to
Lordsburg and it is probable that on
their report will depend the location
Of the road! The Detroit copper com
pany has behind it the same capital
lists that are behind the Copper Queen
company at Bisbee, and IL will be re-
membered that company recently
built a road to connect their mines
with the outside world.

Gambling to be Excluded From
the Fair Grounds This Year.

The board of directors of the Ma
poleon Fair, at their regular meeting
held on May Sd, 1895, received the re-
port of the COMMITTEES having under
consideration the petitions presented
to the board at their last meeting,
asking that no gambling or saloon

mittee was adopted, as follows:
That it be the unanimous verdict
of the board that all games, such as
chuckluck, Hyronemous, wheels Of
fortune, spindles, roulettes, and all
devices for gambling, be prohibited
this year, and that the Secretary be
instructed not to sell any gaming
privileges.
The committee, in examining the
petition, find that less than fifteen of
the signers are stockholders, and the
board being divided upon the ques-
tion Of ofprohibiting the sale Of beer
on the grounds, decided not tosinter-
fere with question which should be
decided. by the persons who furnished
the money to make the fair what it
is. Therefore, it is decided to submit
the question to the stockholders at
their annual meeting, and the Secre-
tary is instructed to publish the petit
tion in connection with his notice for
the annual meeting in January, 1896.

The Ohio SALARY Grab.

The present Ohio legislature isover-
whelmingly Republican. No Demo
cratic member could procure the pas
sage of any measure through either
branch except some little local bill,
and that only by consent of the big
Republican majority. This legislature
votedamonstrous salary grab to itself.
1t passed bill to pay the members
of the legislature two-year salary
after deciding to hold only one session
in the two years. 1t is as bad as the
old salary grab made by Republican
congress several years ago. The
Democratic members of the legisla-
ture are not responsible for the Ohio
salary grab. 1t was passed by a house
and senate that were both strongly
Republican and in a position to vote
the salary grab or rreject it. Defiance
