Words of Praise.

The Superior, Wis. Sunday Leader
has the following concerning a we'll
known Marietta boy:
'Charles A. Ward, the clean-cut and
vigorous young secretary of the Doug
las county republican committee, was
born in the ancient city of Marietta
Ohio, on July 27. 1870. Received his
preliminary education in the public
schools and graduated from Marietta
college in 1890. He came to West
Superior in November of that year,
and was with Sunderland g. Ostrander
in the raal estate and insurance busi-
ness until May, 1892, when he pur-
chased w. F. Streets interest in the
Inland Ocean, becoming the partner of
A. II. Scott
"He was largely instrumental in the
formation of Wisconsin Republican
Editorial association in 1894 and has a
wide acquaintance throughout the
state and an enviable standing at
home.
MIR. Ward has always been pro-
moter of cleaner politics, an enemy OF
rings and public plumbers and an advo-
cate of honest caucuses. The influence
of himself and his newspaper has never
been lent to an unworthy project or a
measure hostile to the public welfare"

The supreme court of Ohio has rem
dered decision in the case of Thomas
j. Crawford VS.. the Woodland Oil COM
papy IN favor of the plaintiff. This
case was started two or three years
ago in the common pleas court of this
county, which court decided in Mr..
Crawford's favor. The case was then
taken by the oil company to the circuit
court where the decision of the com
mon pleas court was sustained. This
decision of the supreme court finally
settles the matter. c. c. Buchanan
was the attorney for Mr.. Crawford, as.
sisted by L. E. Matz and c. L. Weems
This case will be remembered by those
who are interested in oil properties.
The lease given by Mr.. Crawford called
for the drilling of well in one year,
and in default of drilling to pay rem
tai. but it contained forfeiture clause
providing that upon failure of the COM
pany to drill we'll or pay rental the
lease should be null and void. Suit
was brought to compel the payment of
the rental, and the supreme court de-
cided that the oil company must pay
the rental. Woodsfield Spirit

pretty hat has an exceedingly high
ribbonsj also that cut-work and ap-
plique are very much in fashion and that
braiding promises to be all the rage
before the middle of the season.
BY the way, in no manner may the
good points of fashion be better en-
phasized than by the trimming; and
braiding being such pleasant work
many women, from motives of economy
or other reasons, will be tempted into
doing it themselves, with results that
cannot help but be disastrous unless
they be experts with the needle. 1t
is work that requires much time and
patience and, above all, the "kpack"
of doing, and if one has not these re-
quirements it is better to leave it to
the hands of the professional, or es-
chew its destinations altogether.
AS in SO many cases, just SO in this,
from Paris comes the most superb speci-
mems of braiding; and on some of the
wraps sent over by well-known French
house the work is really marvellous.
For instance, a chic cloth jacket in a
lovely shade of tan, cut with the fronts
sharply pointed and extending below
the waist line further than any yet
seen, was completely covered with white
soutache braid put on in such close
and intricate pattern that the whole
had the effect of white coat. Another
example was cape, very tiny affair
indeed, made of pearl-colored cloth and
braided in silver and white braid, the
work being done in such an exquisite
manner that at q distance it had all
the appearance of silver lace applique.
This work is all done by hand and rep
resents vast amount of time and labor,
and garments ornamented in this fash
ion are SO high in price as to place them
quite beyond the reach of the multi
tude. -
Most of the braided wraps and gowns
made in this country, and some that
bear the English stamp, have the work
done by machine; and don't mind tell
ing you that after having seen some of
the natty little jackets just as the
French send them to US the machine
braided garment is one I am perfect
ly willing some one else should count
as their own.
Another interesting item on the all
important subject of clothes is that

some of the smartest fall garments are
in black, this being particularly true
of evening gowns. Dame Fashion is
supposed to rarely ever consider the
limitations of the purse, but this sea-
son she has shown herself more gra-
cious than usual.
A black gown, simply but well cut, is
always treasured belonging, and many
women who perchance are feeling the
stress of pinching hard times will order
their best dress in this somber hue,
depending for change and variety on
the many bright-colored corselets and
lovely neck dressings and fichus that
can be bought in any of the larger
stores; or, better still, have them made
at home for half the expense.
saw black satin evening gown not
long since which delighted me much.
The little bodice cut square in the neck
had the whole front covered with fine
ly-cut jet, which also outlined the
decolletage. This was finished with a
fiuted basque and the sleeves were only

are given the preference, with mousse
line de sole in the lead. Among the
many new models do not remember
one but what showed o touch OF black
in it's trimmings. This sounds az
though it would be rather striking, but
L assure you to the contrary. 1t gives
point of color very harmonious, and
when used with sparing hand is effect
i've to degree.
Now, word about fall millinery.
from glimpses have had of the new
headgear I am sorry to note that broad
effects are still considered the most de-
sirable, and many hats which seem wide
enough to start with have their width
further accentuated by an arrangement
of trimming which projects over either
side Of the brim in the most amazing
manner. When the trimming is put on
a hat in this free and easy style the
head of the wearer looks twice it's mt
ural size, and I am sure it will take a
long time to grow accustomed to them.
The amount of trimming on such hat
is surprising, not to say disheartening,
and the price-well, that is another
story.
There is evidently strong deter
minatiop on the part of fashion makers
to revive the old-time popularity of the
poke bonnet. An exceedingly pretty
style in this shape is of soft felt, in color
a lovely deep blue, with a high, small
crown around which is twisted pale
blue satin ribbon tied at the left side
in large, full bow through which are
carelessly caught three shell-pink os-
trich plumes. The bonnet flares up in
front in true poke fashion, showing in
a most bewitching manner a full clus-
ter of deep pink roses which lie most
becomingly against the hair. Toques,
SO universally becoming to both old and
young, are again in high favor. The
prettiest are made of chenille and satin
ribbon, braided together with soft vel
vet crowns and trimmed with bright
hued roses and tiny outstanding ostrich
tips.

short puffs of satin softened with lit
Tic black tulle.
For early fall wear fashionable dress
makers recommend. gowns made of
flannel. Not the flannel of other sea-
sons, to be sure, but something entire
ly new, with sheen on its smooth sur
face like the finest satin and warranted
not to ruinple or wear rough. 1t comes
in all colors, but the prettiest and most
effective is soft, dove-colored gray,
which, when judiciously mixed with
white trimmings, makes n gowning at
once distinctive and chic.
The model in the picture shows only
the skirt of flannel, pearl gray in color,
while the bodice is of white mousseline
de sole and Venetian point lace, show
ing an under bodice of shrimp-like
satin. 1t is n gown suitable for any
dressy occasion, which perhaps is giving
it praise enough.
The white duck and pique skirts SO
popular in past seasons have made the
white skirt of woolen goods possible,
and within the week have seen some
handsome models whose charms will
be exploited during the golden days OF
autumn. The material most sought
after for this purpose is canvas cloth,
either figured or plain, or white serge.
Canvas cloth, being somewhat newer
than serge, has an added charm; but
to be seen to the best advantage it re-
quires sillken lining, while, on the
other hand, serge, even of the very finest
quality, takes kindly to the foundation
skirt of cotton, and many prefer it for
this reason. Skirts, when made of cam
vas cloth, are invariably trimmed, while
those of serge, being intended more for
outing wear, are as invariably plain
iand made short enough to escape the
September dews. Other skirts to be
worn with separate waists are of silk
alpaca in black and white shepherds
plaid, trimmed with many rows of mar
row black velvet ribbon. While the
material used in these skirts is like that
we have seen during the summer, the
shape is new and vastly pleasing, and
shows the artist in cut and finish.
Judging from the lovely new blouses
I have seen in the past few days the
popularity of this altogether useful gar
ment is not on the wane by any man.

The splendid victory of the Republi-
cans in carrying Washington county
by S13 on the head of the ticket should
not be lost sight of. On the face of it
the plurality is smaller than in the
past three years, but when it is taken
into consideration that the plurality is
in reality a majority over all-Demo-
Gratis, Populists and Prohibitionists-
the true magnitude of the work is
readily seen. 1t settles the political
complexion of Washington county for
all time to come.

f,dent and oft-times violent people.

u ',Ge Unsuitable growth Of Il form ot
socialism styled protection which has
done more TO corrupt puoie life," etc.,
and If so, what action has been taken
thereon by the President
The answer in the snaDe of letter
by Secretary Olney enclosing copies of
the TWO speeches, which have already
teen published in the American pa
pers, and stating thas except as re-
yealed in the correspondence. no action
has bsen taken on them by the SaJe
Department. This correspondence be-
GINS with letter from Mr. Bayard 10
Secretary Olney, written before the for
mer had received any official commun-
lcation on the subject, but in view of
newspaper agitation of his alleged
breach OF Official etiquette.
Mr.. Bayard in this .etler calls atten-
ton 10 the fact that the Edinburgh ad-
dress was delivered by invitation bsfore
a society purely literary and scientific
N character, that no political canvass
was pending or approaching in Great
Britain at the time; that the address
consisted of his personal opinions upon
governmental Institutions in general,
etc, and that there Were precedents. as
IN the case Of his predecessor. Mr.. Low
ell, for an ambassador of the United
States delivering an address under such
conditions.
On January 3, Secretary Olney cabled
to Mr.. Bayard for details regarding the
Boston speech. and on the following day
Mr. Bayard replied, recOunting his par
tlclpatiOn in the closing exercises of the
scnoo. at Boston. His address upon
that occasion, he said, was imprompu,
and "a kindly, humorous, post pran-
dial tone prevailed"
Mr.. Bayard adds that the sending OF
a copy Of a local paper containing a re-
port Of the address to President Cleve-
land and to grandchiTd in Boston.
Mass, constitute all " the publication"
in the United States which he had
given il. Mr.. Bayard adds that in the
report Of his Boston address there are
errors, but as he spoke without pre-
paration he has nothing by which to
make comparisons or to show in just
what those errors consisted.
