The difficulty in the way Of seeing be-

Our fashion articles have for some time
noted the increasing width of skirts. They
are becoming more and more bell shaped,
and of greater circumference at the bot

"Just Lovely, 1t Was So wicked

On the north SIDE a few blocks from the
car barns, says the Chicago News, there
lives a pretty brown-eyed maiden who
travels to and from her place of business
in the city on the north side cable cars
A few mornings since she left her purse
at home, and on this particular morn
ing she decided that she would walk 10
the barns, instead of waiting for the cleo
trio car, so it happened she landed with
out money and without purse. on the grin
of the North Clark street cable and more
over she did not come to a realizing sense
of her position till the car had gone some
few blocks. What to do she did not know
Should she throw herself on the mercy
of the conductor, or should she borrow 4
cents from some of the men on the grin
1t was out of the question to go home

rang out, Fares, please" with the ne

DE WhistIes at His Work.

The common opinion with regard to
President Cleveland is that he is an aus
tere, taciturn man, with thought only
for the great questions of the day, for
his family, and possibly also for the
ducks. SO far as is known, nobody has
suspected him of vein of humor, or of
being in the least sentimental. Indeed,
a great many politicians have labored to
create the impression that he is just
the sort of man Shakespeare had in mind
when he wrote:
The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor that is not moved with concord Of
sweet sounds.
Is fit for treasons, strategems and spoils.
They have even accused him of plotting
with the gold bugs to devour without
salt or pepper, all of the poor people in
the country.
1t is with some degree of surprise that
it is learned from Washington that while
walking through the halls of the white
house, and even at his work, the Presi-
dent whistles. He was heard at 1t the
other day by writer for the press. and
the tune he was whstling was that old
favorite song, silver Threads Among
the Gold" 1t wasn't a tribute to the
''bimetallists," either. Upon inquiry it
was learned that whistling while at work
is nothing new with the President, and
that the old songs are his favorites.
The fact that he whistles while at
work may cause the political enemies
of the President some uneasiness. For
it indicates that he is in good health, that
his mind is clear and at ease upon all
questions that have his attention. that
the slings and arrows of his enemies have
not wounded him deeply, that he is not
worrying about a third term or a sue
essor TO himself; in short. that he has
'got all of his ducks in a row." as the
saying goes, and It awaiting the course
of events with good humor.

Col. John A. Cockerill; whose death at
Cairo, Egypt was reported in our dis
patches yesterday, was one of the most
widely known of American newspaper men
as well as one of the best equipped
and most versatile. He was an Ohioan by
birth, and began his newspaper career the
year the war ended, after having been a
drummer and a bugler in the army. His
first daily newspaper work was in Day
ton, O., from which place he went to take
position on the editorial staff of the
Cincinnati Enquirer. for which paper he
went to Europe in 1871 to report the Rus
so-Turkish war. Upon his return to this
country in 1878 he assisted in the establish
ment of the Washington Post, and the
next year went to st. Louis where he be-
came the managing editor of the Post
Dispatch. In 1888 Mr.. Pulitzer took him to
New York and put him in charge of the
World, which he worked up from the bot
tom rung of the ladder to a high position.
In 1891 he left the World and took charge
Of the Advertiser, with which he remained
about two years and half. For a year
or more. up to the time of his death. he
had been connected with the Herald, for
which he did excellent work during the
war between China and Japan.
