ANOTHER RELIGIOUS ARMY.

The Salvation army and the Ameri-
can Volunteers are TO have a rival IN
a new organization that is 10 carry
banners and keep step 10 the beat OF
drums. A Mr.. William Phillips Hall,
a business man of New York City, a
descendant of revolutionary heroes,
whose home is in Stanford, Conn, pro
poses to organize a religious army COM
posed Of companies. battaliOns and reg
iments. Its name will be the Army
Of the Cross" name that should nave

full name. however, is The American
League of the Grand Army of the
Cross" Mr.. Hall believes he can Feacn
30 per cent of the people that are not
now reached by any other church Or
gsnization. The first branch of the
church was organized at Stanford. last
week. One of the conditions of mem
bership in the American League OF the
Grand Army of the Cross is that I'M
mediately on joining, the recruit, If not,
already a member, must at once De-
come a member of some regularly or
ganized church. All religious denom-
nations will be welcomed, Protestant
and Catholic, Jew and Gentle. but the
members of the army must join some
regularly established church. Mr..
Halls idea is not to antagoniZe the
churches. but to cooperate with them
and wake the people up, get them en-
thusiastfc over church work, and,
through the use of military methods
and system, create an interest that
could not otherwise be secured.

slightly turned up at side and back A large bow of brown velvet ribbon with standing loops was placed at the back, and the front was garnished with two large rosettes of green silk.
 How much better this is than the gloomily plumed affairs, but if the lat ter were the only offenders we might be content but they are not. Many of the so-called stylish hats suggest a sable Vesuvius in full eruption. 9th CTS present to the imagination vari-col- ored geysers boiling over salad bowls, or street sprinklers loaded with red and yellow water. And yet, to tell the truth, these extremes are seen more often in the milliner's windows than on real people. Real people are wearing big hats, and conspicuous hats, and many a hat that really seems quiet now would have seemed distinctly fast" a year or so ago, yet there is a touch of precision or a studied grotes- querie that keeps even a pronounced hat in the realm of stylishness and away from the borderland of vulgar ity. A black felt hat with white broad cloth-covered crown and a handsomely disposed bunch of heavy black plumes and tips adapts itself to almost any dressy rig. The black velvet hat with soft tam crown of a season ago remod- els charmingly by merely lifting the crown and setting round it a wide, closely-folded band of satin ribbon. The plumes must clear the brim as they spring, and should set well away from the crown also, except at the start. FLORETTE.

 This kind of talk is all right as far as it goes, and if supplemented by action will go some distance. But the Populist States have a hard task be- fore them if they intend to convince sensible people that such theories as have been adopted in those States will work we'll.

was invented because of the destruc- tion of a load of eggs and butter, and the story is interesting if true, When locomotives were first built the country roads were for the most part crossed at grade, and the engine-drlver had no way of giving warning of his approach except by blowing a tin horn The horn, it may be imagined, was far from being a sufficient warning, One day in the year 1883 farmer of Thornton was crossing the railroad track on one of the country roads with great load of eggs and butter. Just as he came out upon the track train approached. The engine-man blew his horn lustily, but the farmer did not hear it. Eighty dozen of eggs and fifty pounds of but ter were smashed into an indistinguish- able, unpleasant mass and mingled with the liindling wood to which the wagon was reduced. The railroad com- pany had to pay the farmer the value of his fifty pounds of butter, nine hun- dred eggs, his horse and his wagon. It was considered a very serious matter, and straightway director of the com pany Ashlen Baxter by name, went to Alton Grange, where George stephen son lived, to sec if he could not invent something that would give a warning more likely 10 be heard. Stephenson vert to work and the next day had a contrivance which, when attached to the engine boiler and the steam turned on, gave out a shrill, discordant sound. The railroad directors, greatly delight ed, ordered similar contrivances at tached to all the locomotives, and from that day to this the voice of the ioco- motive whistle has never been silent

His device consists of two planes propelled by two diameter It is about fourteen feet long and about the same width. Its weight is thirty pounds, the machinery weighing as many ounces. The boiler which holds about four pints, is heated with gasoline and will run the engine about five minutes. To give the aero drome the necessary initial velocity it and is launched from this table, which is placed on the top of house-boat on the Potomac. At the recent trial the artificial bird flew the distance named in a horizontal direction till it's supply of steam was used up, when it fell, as expected, on the water.

Some of the western Populists are showing an encouraging. though late, sensitiveness to the opinion of people who have money to lend. For in- stance Senator Allen of Nebraska told the Senate yesterday that thIere is not the slightest ground to fear that any thing will be done in Nebraska that will in any respect violate legal obliga- tions or place a barrier across the pathway of their prompt and effectual enforcement. The Populist party of Nebraska is, he said, composed of men who understand quite well the inviola- bility of all contracts, as well as the sacredness of public and private property and the rights of the citi- zens. And, he added: The party was not born to destroy, but to build up and make more secure the rights of all, and to give all that full measure of justice which their position as mem bers of society entities them to.

FASHION NOTES.
Millinery Gone Stark Mad.

Hats appear to have gone crazy. The average woman cannot put one of the later ones on without losing her head, and she will have to be stood upside down and shaken hard to bring her head again to light, or else it must be searched for with an X-ray. By all odds the most popular dress hat just now is the towering beplumed black velvet affair that looks more like a hearse in full swing, four horses and all, than it does like hat Relief is sometimes offered to the deluge of gloom by a knot of white taffeta, a dash of white satin or sudden upris-
 ing of a white lace tidy. Women buy such hats, too, but why they should when hats that are at once sensible and big enough for any occasion are to be had. Here Is one that is striking and yet does not cast hints at its de-
 signer's sanity. It was brown velvet,

THE GOOSE WAR TALK.

We are becoming a warlike people There was war talk enough yesterday to put stocks down and wheat up. And a resolution was introduced In the sem ate which excitedly said that the kill ing of Gen. Maceo, a renowned general in the service of the republic of Cuba, if true while under flag of truce and with an assurance of safety from the Spanish Captain General was viola tion of the rules of civilized war, an outrage of base treachery, a murder cowardly and disgraceful, which de- n1ands the eXecration of every govern ment and of all the people of the world, whether civilized or savage; that the government which authorizes, permits or fails to punish the assassins who are connected in any way with the guilt of this crime with the extreme penalty of the law, is an outcast from the family of nations and from the pale of civilization and public law.
 The If true" is an important part of this fiery resolution. There is no cer- tainty yet that any of the stories con- corning the death of General Maceo is true. The latest is that he was poison- ed. Until we know just what has hap pened it is not wise to become unduly excited over reports which may be made for the purpose of exciting us. If the hot-blooded Spaniards can afford to wait until they receive the full and authentic text of the Presidents mes sage before they decide to declare war against us we can afford to wait for the truth concerning Maceos death be- fore deciding to "avenge" it. Those who are spelling for a fight with some- body or other must wait until they can be let loose on reasonable and jus tifiable grounds.

A new gold mining process adopted by the workers of a mine in the Cau- casus and of another in Siberia is rep resented as saving from ninety to ninety-five per cent. of the assay value. In this process the pulp coming from the stamps is run through an immer- sion amalgamator, in which it has to pass through about ten inches of mer- cury; on it's way through this appara- tus it leaves all its free gold, however fine of coarse it may be, and the re- maining pulp runs from the arnalgama- tor through a separator, in which the mercury that may have been carried along is recovered. From the separa- tor the pulp goes to the concentrator and from there to the teaching tanks working by an eIectrolytic chlorina- tion process; a series of teaching tanks forms 6 battery, and while the first tank is filling the last one is emptying, the intermediate ones being in the diff ferent stages of teaching. The liquid Is constantly regenerated by the electric current, and the gold is obtained in the shape of a dark-brown slime.
