THE GTLHUEY PREDIC1yrENr.

Police Commissioner GiIhuly is the man of the hour in New Haven. His name is in many mouths. He is pro- tested against by some of the most dis tinguished Democrats who ever walked on the sidewalks of this city, and the Register has addressed an "open let ter" to him. This letter is very open. It tells him that he is a citizen, a tax payer, a Democrat, a beneficiary of Democracy, under heavy moral bonds, under obligation to be a sacrifice, a candidate for police commissioner, a man of intelligence, and an obstruction to the proper performance of police duty in New Haven. Then, apparently convinced that it cannot appeal to him on the ground of principle, it ap- peals to him on the ground of party l loyalty It tells him that his candidacy threatens the success of the town tick ct and that it lies in his power to put Connecticut in shape for winning State fight next year.
 That Commissioner Gilhuly has been able to bring his party to the pass in dicated by the protest and the open let l ter is one of the most remarkable things | ever seen in New Haven politics. It l shows what the party is, or has been, and it shows that Commissioner Gllhu- | ly is rightly credited with being q man of intelligence. It also shows that he | has sand" and having sand" he
 may not mind either the protest or the l open letter. and may persist in threat ening the success of the Democratic town ticket this year and the success of the Democratic State ticket next year. If he does, those Democrats who feel their responsibility for him and who feel themselves to be under moral bonds must continue to do all they can to prevent him from being nominated. It is not proper that he should continue
 to be a police commissioner. It would not be proper even if his selection would make the Republican, party in Connecticut more certain of victory next year than it is now

YMO MEDDLNnN.

The other day there was a great wed- ding in New York. Two young people -one famous for wealth and the other for ancestors-appeared in e fashiona- ble church and made public announce ment of their intention to try to live together. They were surrounded by all the appropriate accompaniments that money could buy. Beautiful music, flowers, fine clothes and all the style that goes with money were there. Sen timent made special effort and Re- liglon paid due deference to the grand occasion. Everything went on and off in great shape and whatever vulgariJy there was in the affair didn't get re- ported.
 A day or two after this splendid cere- npony couple in Georgia, neither of whom is famous for wealth or ances- tors, decided that they would get "hitched." So they rigged up in what clothes they had to rig up in and went to justice of the peace, He said: Twill you take this here man to be your lawful husband?" And ''Will you take this here woman for better or wuss am give me $2 for marvin your" They said yes, the man paid the $2, and then they started on their wedding tour to the humble home where they will try the same momentous experi- ment that the couple who were so splen- didly married in the New York church will try In marble halls" and other fine places.
 A cyntc might inquire, which couple will fight the most savagely and be divorced first? We shall not make any such disagreeable inquiry. We hope that both wiG grow in wisdom, in grace and in peace and be worthy ex- ponents of the virtues and the joys of good wedlock. Perhaps the Georgia couple has the best chance, but we hope neither will come to a divorce court.

ton to say that for every plume worn in a lady's hat ten birds have suffered the death pang,"
 To this Mrs, Mary F. Lowell adds:
 '@rhe mania for egret plumes is so great that, if anything, it exceeds that for wearing the bodies of birds, and in what is it better? Any obseryant per son who notices these plumes waving, not singly, but often in clusters, on the heads of so many women, must know that the slaughter has not been thou sands, but millions. It goes without saying that women must adorn them selves; but are there not many ways of doing it which need not involve such lheartless cruelty? Ought not every good and gentle woman who has learn ed of it shun the responsibility of car- rying aloft the trophies of such brutal worll?'
 Is there not here good work for the Kings Daughters to do? It calls for no sacrifices, no expenditure of time nor money, no particular executive ability nor aggressive effort. Each one has but to say, 'I will have no part nor lot in this matter" Circles need not make it Q condition of membership that no dead birds nor portions thereof should be worn, yet their opinions upon the sub ject might be thoroughly understood, | In this city alone it would not be long before one thousand women and gfrls would content themselves with ribbons and flowers, jets and laces, upon their l bonnets, and find their heads just as becomingly arrayed as before. Think of the number in this one state, and | then of those who throughout the world are wearing the badge of fealty to loving. nnerciful Master! Could all these be interested, could all be agreed, would not their example and their influence iavail much to lessen the evil?
 l Is it too much to ask of Kings Daugh- l ters that, "In His Name" they shall in no way encourage, If they do not active ! ly seek to prevent, a traffic that is i fraught with barbarity, and that min Iisters, with very doubtful success, only i to personal vanity?

twenty-three, making a total Of fifty five, Of these no fewer than fifty were fellows scholars or eNhibitloners ot their colleges. With regard to athletic distinctions, Oxford does not, as in 1892, 1893 and 1894, contribute University Blues to the list. But Cambridge sends one man who distinguished himself both in the classical tripos and the university Rugby team, and another who combined place in the university eight with the senior wranglership, An other interesting fact is that the man who heads the list of successful eandi- dates is New zealander.

The daily transfers In Denver have reached 50O,0Oo shares, while in Colorado Springs the daily transfers aggregate over a million shares. At the last named place sev- eral brokers are reported as declining new orders, as they cannot attend to those they already have in charge,
 Conservative people are preaching caution, but against all warnings the seductive argument is circulated that many of the cheap stocks O few months or even weeks ago were quoted and sold at one-half their present price, and that they will advance several cents in the early future, Chicago and other cities are now getting daily quotations from Crlppla Creek stocks to accommo- date brokers who are already beginning to flood their respective territories with seductive descriptive matter relating to the great gold camp, and there will be a full supply of stocks for all who may want them,

chiffon insertions on the bodice as well as on the sleeves were edged with mar row jet galoon, and the same galoon was employed to initiate tabs on the skirts front Belt and collar were of black velvet. and the sleeves termina- ted at the elbow.
 When plain skirts accompanied by ornate bodices of this sort make such Q fine appearance, what is the use or sense of demanding trimmed skirts? Yet that is just what is being done, and the demand comes from just the women that will not have nay for an answer The elabora ton seems likely to come by having the skirts over un- der-petticoats, or by an effect of double skirt secured by deep edges at the foot of the skirt This suggests many ways of daintiness, but women will not give up the plain skirt with rich fittings as it's only elaboration until they are obliged to. Still, if the crepon skirt has been worn in damp weather and has shrunk away at the foot, its owner can take advantage of the coming fashion, cut the foot of the short skirt into deep vandykes, and set under the vandylzes a finish of velvet to bring the skirt to the necessary length. The vandyl1es must be emphasized by edg- ing and finish of trimming, and at each point there should be a brilliant but ton. Thus will the impossible be turned into the stylish, and conscience and purse for once be friends.

 The convention of Kings Daughters just closed, has been of great interest to those who attended it's sessions, whether they wore the suggestive lit tie badge of the order, or whether they fingered just outside the charmed cir cIe of membership. All who listened to the addresses and reports were con- vinced that, generally speaking, the members of the organization are not only alert to seize upon apparent oppor- tunities for doing good. but ingenious in making opportunities.
 '"The little kindnesses that most leave undone, or despise," the wider benevo- fences that call for thoughtful, earnest work and many a. personal sacrifice, the Kings Daughter, if she be true to her pledge, attempts bravely, with ready sympathy and a spirit that grows stronger with every exertion. There are so many ways in which one can help that never a circle is formed that the work, individual, special and general, does not seem to lie already to the eager hands and the willing hearts, and the joy of it increases as hands grow stronger and sympathy ex- bands.

A new idea is to be tried in the town of Flint, Michigan, beginning to-day. It has been evolved by the Prohibitionists and is in brief to set up a counter at traction to the saloons on Saturday af- ternoon, when the farmers and traders come into town. For this purpose a church is to be opened and music and hot coffee furnished. The people of the church will be present to welcome visit ors. Smoking will be allowed and an attempt made to give visitors all the opportunities for enjoyment they can find in a saloon, except intoxicating liq- uors. The saloon keepers are said to be considerably alarmed at the.e .eompe- tition.

There are some queer things in Mexf- co. For instance, the Mexican Herald says: The latest and most ingenious ap- plication of the lottery principle is that devised by some of the reverend clergy who have introduced the scheme of selling to the faithful tickets at 10 cents each in 8 lottery that has some marvellous prizes, nothing less than masses for the souls of the dead. In one church the other day 1000 tickets were sold at 10 cents each, netting $70o. The prizes are four principal ones and there were twenty minor ones. The first prize was thirty masses, which the lucky winner could apply to the extraction from purgatorial, tor ment of some relative, or, lacking that, of some friend.

To do less in honor of such dress would certainly be a serious omission. Look at the il- lustration and see if it isn't so, and then know the ways and means. First, know that it was mixed silk and wool material showing two shades, Then that it's stiffened skirt was un- trimmed, and that the blouse waist fastened invisibly at the side over fit ted lining.
