 Another white, all mousseline puff ngs and white plumes, had a rich bit of color at the same plaee-the back and lower edge-in the dark purple violets that nestled there.
 A little hat, no straw, had for it's foundation modest white roses, delicate loops in white pompadour stood at each side, the ribbon rim with very bright purple colorings, while few green leaves, lay just in front.
 A big pink poke, a baby hat, with lace rufIie falling over the brim, had fresh pink roses and finely meshed Fe- dora lace for trimming.
 Another of the favorites is little longer, stopping just short of the ei- bow, and has it's accordion plaits half covered with another collet of lace points. On every other point is let cabbage of satin ribbon, and big loops of the satin, with one broad end falling from each over the lace, are set about the high collar EVA A. SCHUBERT.

but mass of chiffon and spangles and gold, for afternoons; these high, slen- der crowns, with brims of Italian straw, generally trimmed with orchids or roses, with a black velvet knot here and there, and quaint old buckle, for receptions; and these big pompadours in manilla, garlanded with delicate crepe roses, in pink or leaf and lettuce green tints, with a few curling aigrettes at the side, for any festive occasion. We have also the broad -brimmed cape line, Marie Antoinette style, that we trim with big knots of faille, with ruches of black chiffon, and with sprays of blended peoples and deep nastur- tiums for the back.
 .'There are some others" The "others" included more than one in fine, pure leghorn, with the high, slen- der crown rising between tall, graceful plumes, one side exactly corresponding with it's opposite, each waving ami cably toward the other. At the base there were the chiffon choux, or the flat gauge plating, or the wreath of pink roses, and at the back there never failed the row of glowing or more modest roses. These were patrician, elegant
 The rough straws were not so, but suggested lawns and summer retreats and coolness.
 A pale yellow in straw lace-exceed- ingly ffne-had it's brim covered and even overreached by the chiffon rufiie of the same pale yellow that was gath cred over; above it lay puffing of the chiffon, and standing about the crown was shorter and fuller ruffle, both edged with tiny yellow valenciennes; jet star gleamed in the center of the crown; and a great purple fleur-de-lis lay on each side the rim, protected on the left by white aigrettes that stood stihiy up, and by others that curled softly over.

AN ANXIOUS MINUTE.

"Oh, no There's not much danger of that, for everybody knows I'm not likely to have with me much of value. It's something rarely think of, al- though, of course, such a thing might happen, and I think it best to be pre- pared for emergencies.
 ''What's the queerest experience you have had since you have been carrying the mail?"
 s'Well, guess when I found the crazy man was about the queerest thing. Ugh! It makes me shiver yet to think of itl That was one day be- fore l had been carrying the mail very long, and 1 was driving along, coming home, when saw man lying on the ground beside the road. His shoes were all cut to pieces and his feet had been bleeding. His tongue was swollen and sticking out of his mouth and his face looked so pinched and queer that l was almost afraid to stop. But l knew ought to, and so I got out and spoke to him. He barely opened his eyes and tried to speak, and then it flashed upon me that he was dying of thirst. got my eanteen and moistened his tongue and bathed his face and hands, and at last got him so that he could swallow. My mother always makes me carry, very secretly, though, little flask of brandy, because she says it might be the saving of my life some time 1 mixed little with the water gave him, and after awhile I was able to get him into the cart and bring him to Magdalena. And, do you know, the man was plumb crazy! My! What day that was-aH day long, un- til nearly dark, in cart with crazy mani Of course, he wasn't violent or dangerous. He just sat there quietly and jabbered and jabbered, and laughed in silly way all the time, elearned afterward that he had been prospect ing up toward Datil mountain, in the lava plains, and his companions had been murdered by the Navajos. He had escaped and had been wandering over those horrible barren plains nor body knows how long. He had drank alkai water, too, and that had made him sick, and I suppose that things al- together, the hunger and thirst and fatigue and fright and the heat in the day and the cold in the night, had put him out of his head.
 "But wasn't I glad to get into Mag dalena that night and put him into somebody else's hands Ugh! l hope I'll never have to ride all day alone with crazy man againl'

or starvation or alkah water, or by the 4 hand of the Navajo, he is likely to be. I Hound some day wandering along it's borders, his pocket full of nuggets, and his mind an ineoherent tumble, which time nor physician ever rights again. Along the southern border of this baleful wilderness a woman drives twice every week-a young woman with pretty face, bright eye and merry heart. Usually she drives alone, and even when she has a companion it is likely to be some entire stranger whom she takes for pay.
 She is Miss Harriet Anderson, and she is the mail carrier from Mogdalena westward to two or three small settle ments in the San Augustin plains and the eastern foothills of the Magollon mountains. Her father holds the con- tract for the route, but as he was fre quently prevented by sickness or by his other business from taking the mail 1t gradually fell into her hands, until now she regularly makes the trip of q hundred miles and back again once every week. When she goes alone she rides in two-horse cart, which takes her spinning over the road at jolly pace. When she has passenger she substitutes a buck board, which leaves more room for mail bags and occasion ally express matter.
 Miss Anderson is young woman less than twenty-five years old, with brown hair, brown eyes and the tanned but rosy complexion which so much out door life in this dry, pure air is bound 10 give. She wears wide straw hat, blue serge gown with an Eton jacket and a shirt waist, and around her waist is fastened pistol belt, into Which is stuck aggood-sized six-cham- bered revolver.
 When chaffed about the probable uselessness of this martial display, the young lady drew the gun as quickly and as deftly as a professional shooting man could do, held it out with firm nand and steady arm and put all six bullets into playing card posted thirty paces away.
 I've never had occasion to use it in earnest" she said, as she carefully wiped out the barrel and reflled the chambers, "but always feel safer to nave it with me.

Salisbury'e Return to Power Was Not a surprise-Peeuliarly Unfortunate Con- dition of the Liberal Party-The
 Unionist Programme.
Written for This Paper.l

The passing-away of the Rosebery ministry in Great Britain was not 8 surprise to anyone. For months the
 liberal party had remained in power by grace of the opposition, whose leaders did not care to assume the responsibility of the government as long as the 1iber- al platform stood the faintest show of success at the polls. The defeat of the government in the house of commons which led to the retirement of Lord Rosebery and his colleagues was trick, pure and simple, worthy of Joseph Chamberlain, the tory Machiavel. The conservatives pretend that they did not wish to oust their opponents at the

do it with my last breath and my last cartridge. And, besides, 1 might have to protect myself some time, although I never feel any anxiety about that"
 "Have you ever been frightened by anything on one of these trips?"
 ''N-no, notreally frightened, although I've been rather anxious sometimes. And once I would have been very much frightened if hadn't had passenger, and if he hadn't been Mormon. l see you don't understand" she went on, smiling at the look of surprise on her questioner's face, ssbut one Mormon is as much protection against band of Navajo Indians as an army regiment would be. You see there are lots and lots of Mormon ranches and settlements all through this part of New Mexico, and they have always been on good terms with the Indians. Most of the men speak the Navajo language and are so friendly with them that the h. dians will not do anything Mormon tells them not to.
 Well, once this man, 8 Mormon, was riding with me over to Patterson's ranch. It is very unusual for the Nav ajos to come so far south, although they range constantly over the lava plains farther north and kill lots of people up there every year. But this time band of five of them rode down to the very road from behind some heaps of lava rocks before we knew they were there. They called to us and the Mormon an- swered them, and then they jabbered together for few minutes, after which the Indians rode off to the north again. As the Mormon was with me knew there wasn't particle of danger, but if he hadn't been there I would have been badly scared girl, I tell you"
 'sDo you see many bears and other wild animals?"
 "Yes, frequently see bears over in the Mogollon foothills, and I see coy. otes on the plains every trip. I've killed quite number of coyotes from a cart with my revolver, and last week shot at bear. He had his forepaws up the trunk of tree, pulling the bark off, and although he wasn't very far from the road he didn't pay the least attention to me. It was such good chance I couldn't resist the temp tation, and so halted my team and banged away. And I hit him, too, know I did, in the shoulder. But he scrambled off into the brush so quickly that I didn't have chance to shoot again. Poor fellow, I was sorry aft erward that l shot, because it's likely that I lamed him. Yes, I know he might have tried to attack me, but if he had started toward the road l should have put the whip to Don and Donna and MT. Bear might have followed at his leisure, and welcome, if he had wanted to. I've always wanted to get good view of mountain lion, but I've never seen live one yet.

A Fair Exchange.

Xullack, the famous pianist, was once invited to dinner by wealthy Berliner, who was the owner of large boot nanufactory and had been shoe maker in his time. After the repast Kullack was requested to play some thing, and he consented. Not long afterward the virtuoso invited the boot manufacturer, and after dinner handed him pair of old boots What am I to do with these?" inquired the rich man. With genial smile Kullack replied: "Why, the other day you asked me after dinner to make a little music for you, and now ask you to mep.' these boots for me. Each to his trade. "- Musikzeitnng.
