FASHION NOTES.

Contradictions That Constitute Guarant a
 Women who can afford to do so like to wear at this season of the year cos- costumes that have character quite apart from winter or fall dress. and yet that are unmistakably new. This character is well attained by dress of soft wool in clear gray that takes its tone from the Intervening of white and black threads The skirt is plain

NOT 4 sUMMER sWALLOW.

It has been noticed that one swallow doesn't make summer, and when the Democratic misgovernment of this coun- try managed to show a surplus for Sep tember there wasn't widespread contl- dence that the long and dreary winter of deficits was over. So there will not be widespread surprise because for the first ten days of October there has been an average deficit of $S29,9 per day.
 We suppose that the plan of the the orists who have brought "the great blessings" spoken of by Brother Wat terson on this country was to have the business of the country on a paying ba- sis by this time so that they could point to the profits and thereby catch votes for next year. But their plan has mis- carried. They have discovered, or if they haven't others have, that helping other countries at the expense of this country isn't exactly the way to put money into the purse of this country. It is true that the memory of the peo- pie is apt to be short but if the theo- rists don't have a great deal better luck than they have had they will not sec surplus enough in the treasury between now and next November to make the voters forget the sickening record O. deficits.

ground, There is no device or machln- cry to bring out the oil and keep back the salt water, It cannot be evaporat- ed, consumed or destroyed; neither can it be put in piles like the refuse and waste stock from coal mines, The laws of gravltatlon, for which the defend ants are not responsible, prevent this and force 1t into the tributaries and then into the main stream. They can not store and impound it, neither can they carry it elsewhere in pipes without crossing the land of others and becom- ing trespassers. To grant the iniunc- ton prayed for is to establish a prinei- pie which will to great extent sweep this important industry out of existence and take from the owners of the land their private property for public or pri- vate use, without just compensation be- ing made or secured.

so abundant that the question of econ omy in its consumption in reality cuts no figure, It is not necessary, therefore, to provide furnaces with costly devices in the way of fuel-saving appliances. It is, of course, by reason of the low cost of installing the Willesbarre plant that the figures given for the cost of the current are so much less than the cost with cheap water power from the cataract,
 If this plan works great addition will be made to the available power of this country.

4 PROITISING PLAN

A man who can invent a way of profit ably using the great culn heaps that surround the coal mines of this country will make himself and others
 or others. rich. Perhaps the problem is about to be solved. Recent advance ments in the electrical art. seem to have suggested a practical plan for disposing of the rubbish necessarily &C., eumulating at the pit mouth. It has been found that the culmf can be utilized for fuel, under good economic condi- tione, in the generation of electricity. Tests recently made under the direction of the Scranton Chamber of Commerce show that, with culm costing 25 cents at the door of the furnace. electricity can be generated at a fraction over S5 per horse power per year, continuous. or twenty-four hour power. This cost is less than the lowest figure that can be hoped for from the water power of Nj sgara. Of course, this low figure is based upon the difference in the cost of install ing the plant at Niagara and the plant now proposedatW Wilkesbarre. Theculmis is

A pair of turn back ilaring cuffs may be worn at the wrists also. And this costume, fur and all, will be deemed correct for wear on the warmest days of fall, the contra diction being guarantee that the gown Is planned and intended for a half sea- son costume.
 A fall dress that will be serviceable for good while and which, therefore will recommend itself to economical wo- men, is shown herewith, and though attuned to economy it is quite as new looking as if it could be safely worn for only a few weeks. Its fabric is beige and nut brown mixed suiting and its moderately wide skirt is made with strapped seams The fitted bodice fastens at the side and has two plas- irons, one shorter than the other, but both with round corners and steel but ton trimmings, and with button holes initiated by cord loops. The tiny ripple basque has tabs with button garniture and all the seams are strapped. A bias fold finishes the collar and Nike finish and several buttons show on the cuffs This dress would be very tasteful as q travelling gown, and would serve nicely on the street. FLORETTE.

The plan to erect a monument to Gen. John Charles Fremont, under the aus pices of "The Associated Pioneers of the Territorial Days of California" of which society Admiral Meade of the United States navy is president, is commend able The intention is to place it on the site of Fremont's grave, which overlooks "Tappan Zee" and the Hud- son river for many miles, including sev- eral villages, and ranging in view across Westchester county to the waters of Long Island sound. It is magnificent place for such a tribute. The design will be the figure of the explorer, in hunting costume, with rifle resting, his eyes being shaded by his hand and searching toward the west It is a highly picturesque design and most appropriate attitude, the base formed by a succession of boulders of a rugged character, to the top of which the figure annears to have climbed.

A legal opinion which promises to be
 of importance to the oil producers of Pennsylvania has been handed down by Judge Greer in the case of city water company against an oil company asking for an injunction to restrain de- fendants from pumping salt water into q. creek above the water company's dam. The injunction is refused on the ground that If the court can by its strong arm stop the drill above Butler it can with the same power and pro- priety do so above ZeIenople, some sev- enteen miles further down the creek. and thereby practically put an end to the production of oil in the whole coun- ty and leave sleeping in the subterra- mean rocks millions and millions of property belonging 10 the citizens of Butler county. Further the opinion Of the court declares: There is no way to produce oil from the hundredfoot rock without bringing the salt water with it.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press brings out an interesting fact in an investigation concerning large territories in Minneso- la and the Dakotas, showing that the numerous lakes in that section have been rapidly drying up for the last de- cade. This is said to be due partly to @ decrease in the amount of rainfall, and partly also to the great increase in cultivated lands, the titled ground ab- sorbing the water which formerly ran over the surface of the praries to the lakes.
