The March number OF The Dslineator
is called the Great Spring Number. and
is especially valuable and interesting be-
cause Of the early forecast it contains Of
spring and summer styles and materials
for ladies, misses and children. The
first Of q series OF articles on current
events OF interest to women, by Mrs.
Frederic Rhinslander Jones, appears in
this number. In the domain OF the
kitchen the number lie frsighted with
good things; Mrs. A. B. Longstreet writes
upon the Chemistry of Foods; Helen
Combes tells about an English High Tea
and the dishes prepared for it, and the
regular article on Seasonable Cookery
deals with the chatting dish and dishes to
b prepared in it.

OF spring and the coming OF Easter give =
refrsshingly poetic and timely interest to
the March Ladies' Home Journal. which
in it's literary, artistic and more practical
features, is exceptionally strong and UNI
usually attractive. The number opens
with 4 fascinating story by the late
Eugene Field-"Ths Were. Werewolf" in
the only manuscript by the lanented
poet and story writer that has not been
published, and that it was written and
re- written eight times by the author be-
fore it exactly met his approval. 1t ia
probably one Of the best Of all Mr.. Fisld',
writings. Howard Pyle has illustrated
the story admirably. General A. w.
Greedy, U. $. A., presents his first paper
on "Tha Personal Side Of Washington,' -
which is illustrated by B. West Cline

THE NEW BOND ISSUE.
Banker Morgan VIII Probably Get the
Biggest Half of 1t.

WAsHGNGToN, Feb. Z. The work of
scheduling and classifying the bids for the
new loan is being pushed rapidly, but un-
til that task is completed no information
of an exact and definite character can be
obtained rs to the amounts bid for ut each
of the several rates, or rs to how low a ratio
will be accepted
The bid of J. p. Morgan and his associ-
ates will undoubtedly be accepted to
large amount, variously estimated at from
S5OOOO,OOO to $50, 100000 In any event, it
can be stated that all legitimate bids at
rate above that submitted by Mr.. Morgan
(SllO.6S7O will be accepted, and that all
bids below that rate will be rejected
1t was expected by the treasury officials
that the secretary would be able to exer-
else some discretion in the acceptance OF
bids, and therefore would be in position
to give the preference to parties who
would agree to obtain their gold from
abroad.
The fact however, that all bids higher
than that made by Mr.. Morgan must be
accepted precludes the possibility of his
making any discrimination whatever, ex-
cept in rare cases, where the bidder shows
that he has foreign gold on the way here,
and asks for Il slight extension Of time in
which to make his deposit.

BILLS OF COSTS.
Irregularities In Hamilton
County.

Chattanooga, Sept.-Considerable
of sensation was created here to-
day by charge delivered by Judge
Moon to the grand jury relative to
bills of criminal costs that have been
paid by this county. For some time
a committee Of the Young Mems
Business League has been at work
making some figures at the court
house in the matter of fees paid to
the Acknowledgement. They found
where fees had been paid to Foster
V. Brown while he was Attorney
General amounting to something ov-
er $1,000, which were claimed to be
illegal. Mr. Brown very promptly
yielded the point and made rest,tu-
ton.
Acknowledgement Donaldson was
found also to have drawn fees of
the same kind 80 the amount of $4,000
but he claims they were legally coll
lected and will test the matter IN the
courts. In their investigation the
committee claims to have found
many bills of costs in the office Of the
Circuit Court CLERK, which they
clam are also illegal. Though the
committee Las made no formal re-
port as to the extent, rumOrs have
been rife about considerable sums
and it was to this matter that the
Judges charge to-day is directed
The matter will undoubtedly result
in an investigation.
Clerk Henderson claims that his
cost bills are all within the statutes
but ne expresses a willingness to re
lax if the Judge so orders. These
investigations have intensified thu
popular clamor here for reform o
the fee system. The committe,
looking into these matters intimat,
that the same irrularities will prob
ably be found In nearly all the larg
cities.-Nashville American.
