what a nonentity she was over here? I
suppose the moral OF II, as the duchess
says in Alice in Wonderland, is, If you
don't succeed in St. Petersburg, 90 to
Timbuctoot
She was long-bodied woman. says the
New York Times. with high shoulders.
She sat high in her orchestra chair, and
the towering, expansive hat that crowned
her red hair shut off the stage from about
fifty people. She was deeply interested in
the play, and she waggled her head from
side 10 side, TIL the people behind her,
trying to dodge the hat, were driven near
A meek little damsel. with a discreet
pancake hat on, at last became restless.
She had looked at the high-shouldered wo-
mans red hair and tremendous hat for
so long that she could not bear II another
instant So she leaned over and whis-
win you be kind enough to remove
The red-headed woman glared at her aw-
fully. and rasped: Il do not care 10 re-
move my hat"
And she didn't remove it.
Now that women have taken TO asking
each other to remove their hats IN thea
tiers, II is though that the habit of wear
ing square yard of millinery on end on
top of the feminine head may soon fall into
odium and disuse. At least, that is the
expressed opinion Of one of the leading
theatrical managers In New York.
Neck r1lches are now substituted for high
collars, and the variety displayed In the
shops Is endless. Some are made Of alter
nate double strips of black and white tulle
several inches broad. and plated very fun
in the center. Bows Of black satin rib
bon are added at the back or sides and fas-
tened in front. Black and colored net,
embroidered with cream lace, is also used.
and very stylish ruches are made OF black
chiffon with a satin edge gathered to a
ribbon band and wide enough to fall fully
ten inches on the shoulders. Black satin
bows or punches Of violets decorate these.
The real keynote TO successful hairdress-
ing as the tasteful woman has long ago
found, is to follow only in the distance, and
with as many ramiications as a Brooklyn
street car line, the prevailing fashion. If
that capricious dame announces that hair
IS worn low this season." II means simply
TO the woman who knows, that the general
effect of her couture is to be slightly low
cred She will still dress her hair, as she
must always, 10 suit her face. A low
straight forehead may be surmounted by
a pompadour arrangement; a high-pointed
brow never. Fine, straight, black hair
ought never to show itself in fries or fine
curls; loose, shining waves is its highten-
ing beauty 1t is a curious fact, too, that
blonde and brown hair may permit itself
a sweet confusion that in black hair IS
simple untidiness. The woman with coarse
waVy hair may congratulate herself, for 1t
always lends itself, above all chevelures,
TO easy arrangement. NoYelists ike TO
describe the fine hair of their herOines, but
such hair is a trial to its owner, and its
owners maid, II she has one, and IL. in adj
dition, # Is straight, both owner and maid
are justified in regarding IL as a genuine
handicap TO all successful coiTing.

WERE ROASTED TO DEATH
HEAD-END COLLISION ON THE
FLORIDA CENTRAL
Expresses Messenger Lines and Mail
Agent Thomas Pinioned, and
Trains Wrecked.

Columbia, S. c., Oct. 14.-Through
a misunderstanding of an order, the
north and south bound trains on the
Florida Central and Peninsular rail
road had head-end collision at i've
minutes past three o'clock this morn
ing, two and half miles below
Swansea, about thirty miles from this
city, The trains came together on an
embankment. The engineers and fire
men jumped and escaped without in
Jury. The engines of both trains were
demolished and the tender OF the
south-bound engine telescoped into
the combination, mail, baggage and
express car. 1t did not leave the track,
but was almost totally wrecked. Bag
gage and Express Messenger w. ID.
Lines and Mail Agent l.. A. Thomas
were pinioned in the wreck which
caught fire from the coal oil lamps.
The crew of both trains, who were un-
injured, tried to cut them out, but the
flames spread so rapidly that, though
the rescuers were stimulated by the
piteous appeals of the two men, they
could do nothing to aid the two un-
fortunates who were roasted to death.
Flagman Ulmer was standing between
the second-class and baggage cars and
he is supposed to have been burned
to death also Two other cars were
consumed, but no passenger was in
iured. The only evidence in the burned
wreck of human beings is a skull and a
few bones. The northbound train was
not injured further than the smash
ing of the express car. Messengers
Farmer and Price jumped and received
slight injuries. The trains were di-
rected to pass at Swansea, but the
crew of the south bound train read
the order Sweden, station several
miles south Of Swansea.

His Representative, Reed Was Entirely
in Harmony With Commiltee--Will
Not Endanger BRYAN Now in
Kansas and Colorado.
Kansas and CoIorado.

Chicago, Oct. 14.-'There seems to
be a wrong impression regarding the
action taken by the Popuhst Executive
committee" " said Senator Marion But
Ter to-day. THE address issued by the
committee does not reflect in any way
upon Mr.. Watson, and it Will undoubt-
edly be approved by him. Committee
man Reed, of Georgia, came directly
here, after spending two days with
Mr.. Watson in discussing the situation,
and the policy indicated by our address
is entirely approved by him. OF course,
the situation as regards fusion in sew
eral of the States is not entirely SAT-
isfactory to the committee. Since
union of the the forces is necessary to
win, there viii be a union ticket. That
ticket should be Bryan and Watson,
but we are not going to divide our for
ces.
''In Kansas and Colorado, whera
there are no Watson electors, the situ-
alton is especially unsatisfactory to the
committee and Mr. Watson. But since
the electors in those States cannot be
divided and give the Populists repre-
sentation, we are not going to turn
them over to Mckinley. Nothing can
be done in those States now that would
not endanger the result, and our adj
dress was the best thing that could
be done to unite the silver forces which
is our duty above all things. IL we
could have our way, of course it would
be different, but Mr.. Watson would
much rather put up with the existing
conditions than have those States go
for Mckinley"
''You think, then, that Mr.. Watson's
Kansas trip viii be abandoned@
"Well, yes; a committee will proba-
blv call on Mr.. Watson to talk over the
situation and communicate to him the
reasons that caused the committee to
arrive at this unanimous conclusion.
I feel sure that when the situation is
thoroughly explained to Mr.. Watson,
that in the interests of harmony he
will arrive at the same conclusions
that we have"
The members of the Populist Ex-
ecutive committee had a conference
with Chairman Jones, of the Demo
cratic National committee today to
arrange. if possible, for the completion
of fusion arrangements in Congress
sional districts where this has not been
brought out 1t was positively stated
that no further attempt would be made
to effect fusion on the Kansas and Colo
RADIO electoral ticket.

allism is good for the American people,

No wonder the Republicans in several

feating the chances of the Republican
party for success. (Applause.)
If you could keep people from talk

how he ever got into this country and
why he did not stay in q country

nents seem to think that all they have
to do is to get the heads of the trusts
and syndicates together and let them
shout in chorus. stop talking" and
the people will keep still. But they
won't, my friends. (Applause.)
The opposition was out in force at
Ishpeming when the Bryan party ar
rived there. There was a large crowd
to listen to the candidate, but it was
not enthusiastic There was big Re-
publican rally on and the Mckinley
club of the city, headed by a brass
band, marched to the Democratic gath
ering. Mr.. Bryan had concluded his
address and Timothy Tarnsley had
been speaking for a few moments
when the band appeared. Mr.. TaIns-
ley, who stood Immediately in front OF
Mr.. bryan, turned to the nominee, ad-
dressing himself more particularly to
him, and said:
ST am informed that that band is
at the head of a so-ealled Mckinley
club.
I'VE are very much obliged to them
and the people who sent them out fol
this kindly interruption, but inside oi
three weeks that band will be playing
if still in the same employment, al
entirely different tune"
Those about the stand applauded
this statement heartily and then Mr.
Bryan was. taken toward his car.
Negaunee, to a great measure, Offset
the lack of warmth displayed at Ish
peming. Mr.. Bryan had time there tt
get on a platform in the public square
to thank the people for their enthus
iastic reception. He was cheered anc
applauded until the train left for Mar
quette, where it arrived shortly before
8 o'clock.

for Bryan and Sewall Mr.. Lucas was
the last speaker. He made a strong,
telling speech and fully demonstrated
the fact that he is In every respect
well able in this joint discussion to

REGISTRAR CASE DECIDED
MONTGOMERY'S ORDER SUSTAIN
ed BY THE SUPREME COURT.
Durham Case in Regard to Election of
Magistrates Also Finally
Determined.

The ease against the Winston regis
trars, Reed and. Curtis, was yesterday
argued on appeal before the Supreme
court. Messrs. Chas. NJ. Busbee and
+. i. Jones opened for the defendants
and Mai. Graham for the plaintiff.
After hearing the argument of counsel
the court handed down the following
decision:
In the matter of Reed and Curtis,
registrars:
Faircloth, c. j., delivered the opinion
as follows: This matter comes before
us by appeal from an order and judg-
ment made by w. A. Montgomery, one
Of the justices of this court.
After argument by counsel we are
of the opinion that said order is in
accordance with the trae intent of the
act of Assembly of 1895, chapter 159,
and the same is affirmed.
In consideration of the Importance
of the matter, we say we think the
registrars under said act, may ask the
eleetOr his age and residence, as well
as the township or county from which
he removed, in the case of a removal
since the last election, and the name
by which he is commonly known, and
that by authority of the Constitution,
article 6, section /, the registrars may
ask the electOr if he has resided in the
State twelve months next preceding
the election, and ninety days in the
county in which he offers to vote, and
that no more questions can be asked
by the registrars uder said act. If the
elect0r answers that he is twenty-one
years old, and has resided in the State
twelve months and in the county
ninety days previous to the election
lat which he proposes to vote, it is
the duty of the registrars, upon his
taking the oath prescribed by section
rs, to record his name as a voter. Upon
the request of any by-stander he can
be sworn as to his residence. Chal-
lenges, if. made at all, must be made
at the time and in the manner specified
in the act. Affirmed.
ELECTION OF JUSTICES.
In Foushee against Christian, the
following is a summary of the opinion
as to election, of justices of the peace:
The court holds that justices of the
peace in each, township shall be elected
by the voters thereof. The names of
the candidates for Justices of the peace
shall be voted on the ticket with county
officers, but only in their respective
townships, as has already been the
case with candidates for constable.
The judgment below is ffirmed.-Opin-
ion by Clark, ].
