cutting it straight around, only allow
ing for the dip of the three back
breadths, but it is q design more calcu-
lated for evening wear where narrow
goods are used, such as silk or velvet.
The dark portion on the diagram shows
the shape below the walking length for
facing required. In all other respects the
skirt is cut and finished in the same
way, with the exception of the slant OF
the cores. In this the front breadth Is
inches at the top and Il at the foot.
The first and second side breadths are
inches top and 10 inches at the bottom.
The third side breadths measure 2 inch
es at the top and 10 at the bottom. The
three back breadths are inches at the
top, "a at the walking line and 80 at the
train length. The waist line will fit
closely yet comfortably over the hips
and the skirt hang perfectly il the same
directions are carried out as those for
the eight gored skirt. Blue denim or
blue jeans is better for the stiff facing
than anything, as it has firmness and
body without stiffness and great weight
A thin wadding may be used in silk or
satin gowns between lining and silk to
give it body and richness.
Care must be taken to see that all
the side breadths are sewed rightly
l. e., that the selvage edge always comes
next the front bias one. There are four
long seams in the ten gored skirt, where
both edges are bias. A tape must be
sewed in with these seams to prevent
stretching, and if there is a figure in
the goods care must be taken that it all
runs one way. Figured goods are not
economical. Some dressmakers pipe the
waist instead of putting on band. If
these simple directions are followed,
and the skirt given a final pressing with
hot irons when finished, the happy
dressmaker will have achieved a tri-
umph. OLIVE HARPER.

DESIRE THEIR DEATH.

People of KinsIcy Want tho Governor to
Sign Murderers' Death Warrant.
Governor Morrill, has received a petit
ton, signed by over 600 citizens of Kins-
ley and Edwards county, asking that he
sign the death warrant and order the ex-
ecution of Carl Arnold and William Har-
vey. the two Young men who murdered
Mayor John F. Marsh on the night of Oc-
tober -22, 1894.
The petition was presented by Judge
s. W. Nandiyert, who went before a mob
which was about to lynch the murderers
and promised that if they would allow
the law to take it's course he would join
in petition to the governor to execute
the murderers
The murderers have now been in the
penitentiary just one year, the time
designated by law before an execution
can be made and if they are TO be exc
cuted now is the time.
Governor Morrill,, it is said. will not
sign the death warrant, as he does not
care to be the first Kansas governor to
inaugurate capital punishment

Kansas City, May 2S.-Hot winds,
which prevailed over western Mis-
souri,, Kansas and parts of Nebraska
for the past forty-eight hours, have
badly damaged and in some places
completely destroyed crops. A dispatch
from st. Joseph, Mo-, says that hot
winds have been blowing in that vi
cinity at a. terrible rate for two days
past, causing widespread damage. The
thermometer at st. Joseph today reg
istered 50, which is one of the hottest
May records known there.
In Dickinson, Clay and adjacent
counties in northeastern Kansas, dust
and sand storms have added to the
heats fury. A dispatch from Clay
Center says that farmers in that vi
entity have given up all hope OF rails
ing anything. The hot winds in that
vicinity are reported as not only dam
aging to the crops. but are said to
have blown fruit off the trees.
At Caldwell, Kan, the local water
company has shut off water for all
purposes except for fighting fire, as
the long continued drOughts has caused
the creeks to run dry. Reports re-
ceived by railroad officials from var
ious other points show like conditions.
There are still no signs Of rain.

Cleveland, O., May 2S.-The Amalgama-
ted association today adopted the follow
ing resolutions:
Whereas, The Supreme Court Of the
United States has just handed down it's
opinion in the case of Eugene V. Debs,
the language of which opinion states in
terms that cannot be misunderstood, the
Supreme Courts approval of the use of
the weapon of issuing injunctions against
organized labor in strikes, and thus is the
issuing of injunctions further encouraged
and the peoples rights further endan-
gered; therefore, be it
Resolved. That we, in convention as
sembled, do view with alarm the unneces-
sary and unjustifiable curtailment of our
liberties that is being done by Injunction
we regard it as the means through which
it is sought to steal and take away from
the people by piecemeal rights that a
liberty-loving people would not permit di-
rect legislation to interfere with, thus
making it the more repugnant because of
its pretended innocence.
Resolved, That we regret this latest
and most far-reaching decision on in
functions, and that we believe that the
time has come when the united forces of
labor should lend all their energy to the
correction of this evil-an evil that if per-
mitted to go on and continually increase
as seems probable. must inevitably bring
about the enslavement of the masses.
Resolved, That our sympathy goes
out to Eugene V. Debs, and that we re-
gard the denial of his petition by the SUI
preme Court as denial of simple JUS
tice"

Cadiz. May 2S.-The French steamer
Dom Pedro, bound for Garlic, Spain,
has been wrecked off Currebedo.
Eighty were drowned. The disaster
was caused by the bursting of a
boiler.
About 100 lives were lost. Dom Pc
dro was a 3.OOO-ton steamer and was
engaged in running between Havre
and the Argentine Republic, calling at
Bordeaux, France, and carried freight
and passengers. The latter were
mostly emigrants from the Argentine
Republic or other points of South
America. On her return trips the Dom
Pedro was generally loaded with frozen
meat. She left Havre on May 20 with
a crew of forty, all told, and eighty
passengers. At Garlic the steamer was
to have embarked 200 additional pas
sengers, but on the way to that port
she ran on a rock at GAO p. m. off Cape
Corrube on, the west coast OF Galicia.
The boilers exploded, the vessel foun-
dering Immediately afterwards. 1t is
now stated that only the captain and
twenty-nine of the crew were saved,
which indicates that all the passen-
gers were either killed by the explosion
or drowned when the vessel went
down.
A still later report says that only
the captain Of the Dom Pedro and
twenty-SiX of the crew were saved.
