Nineteen German student corps
that fight duels have been dissolved
at Vienna by order of the govern

that Jews are infamous and not en-

The Atlanta Constitution says

and shows that the Democrats
have. about 10000 majority. 1t
also states that the Republicans
did not vote in many counties
and in other places the Republi-
can and Populist names were not
printed on the tickets. So the
Democrats had things all their
own way and then came out be-

Short Grass for Sheen.

Sheep delight in the short grass
and peculiar heritage of hill pastures
and bare downs, and the mutton pro-
duced in such pastures, and by the
breeds most suitable to them, is of
superior quality to t,iat of the large,
fat sheep fed or richer soil. The
multitude of tiny shells so often
found on every foot of down turf is
also very cflicacious in fattening and
nourishing the animal.

be tastefully attired in goods that closely resemble those that mamma wears. In the accompanying picture there is shown an excellent model with skirt was of blue cheviot, and the guimps of Persian silk The skirt was gathered to the tiny, bodice, which was alike back and front, and was finished with blue mixed woolen braid. Over the shoulders were straps edged with braid, the right one tapping over in the center where the button appeared. The belt of the ofeviot was also edged with braid and the stock collar was left plain Bands of the braid initiated cuffs on the sleeves.
 The woman who is desirous of being thoroughly stylish in her attire, and who yet is obliged to limit her outgo, need not hesitate because silk petti- coats are being sold at low figures. On the contrary. let her make the best of the chance and go in for one or two of them. Silk petticoats are never go- ing out of fashion. Good taste prompt ly forbade their use on the street or where exposed to too much soil, but for house and dressy wear nothing will ever be prettier. The lace trimmed white lawn skirt is very pretty, but it is not so durable as the silk petticoat and the latter has the desirable rustic. Select a pretty shade and avoid lot of lace and ribbon about the hem, but don't fear that fashion will forbid its wear. The day is gone by when fash ion dictates. We demand novelty of course, but we don't give up what we like of the old just because something new comes along. Silk petticoats will no more go out than will shirt waists, and jacket-and-skirt outing dresses.

In his remarks at Waterbury the oth- CT day concerning Washington's fare we'll address the Hon. Lynde Harrison came out squarely for honest money and denounced the daily fraud involved in the reissue of the legal tenders. The Hartford Courant sees much meaning in MT Harrison's words, and assumes that by them he has marked out the way in which the Democratic party of the State will walk. And the Courant adds: Realizing this, the Republican platform should be, without equivoca- tion, clear, outspoken and fearless in its demand for honest money and in it's denunciation of the damaging de- vices from which the national credit now suffers. Warned as the party has been by this Waterbury utterance, lodging and evasion cannot be let pass as accidental. The issue is thrust right under the eyes and noses of the party managers. We don't believe they want to evade it, and it's plain that any way they can't
 The only amendment we shall offer to this is that whatever the Democratic party in Connecticut does, the Repub- lican party should deal with the finan- cial question honestly and thoroughly It will lose votes and honor if it doesn't and it will deserve to lose them.

------7---------------------- ----------- AN GBJECT LESSON.

The theater-hat reform has made such progress among the lovely, the kind and the reasonable women of New Haven, that there is no pressing need of any further preachment or action concerning 1t. It is now possible to go to the Hyperion and see a part of what goes on upon the stage and not infrequently favorable location and favorable hats will allow the whole to be seen. But if the reform should go backward and if it should become nec- essary to give it another start perhaps a useful hint could be found in the ac- ton of the manager of a Paris theater, who has succeeded in abolishing the big hat nuisance in his house. His plan was ingenious. Just before the time for raising the curtain one Of the actresses of the company, elaborately dressed, with an immense picture hat and sleeves excessively swell ed, sailed down the aisles and seated herself, taking care to at tract as much attention as possible, in a conspicuous place in the orchestra. Immediately behind her was seated one of the actors. He showed great annoy ance and finally courteously requested the actress to remove her hat. She treated his request with manifest con-
 tempt. She replied with an imperti- hence. Their voices, as the colloquy proceeded, were ''unconsciousIy'' raised. 1 Their words became audible all over the ! house. The public grew deeply inter- ested. The actor, though insistent, was l reasonable and carefully courteous. l vulgar and unreasonable woman to per- 1 lection. The audience sympathized with the courteous gentleman, ill-used and insulted by the ''brazen creature. !"
 Cries Of take off your hat' resounded | from every part of the house. The
 manager appeared upon the scene. He | requested the actress to remove her | hat. She refused. He offered her the
 money she had paid, and requested her | to leave the house. She refused vocifer-
 ously and was, finally, forcibly remov- ed in the most ignominious manner.
 This object lesson was always effective. Before the climax of the unpleasant
 scene every last woman in the house
 would have her hat in her lap The little comedy, with notifications and
 changes of cast, was repeated as often
 as it was necessary. It soon ceased to 1 be necessary.
 It is to be hoped that the beautiful,
 the friendly and the considerate women | of New Haven will never need such an 1 object lesson as that given Paris women
 by this cunning theater manager. They
 will do well to continue showing as
 much of their pretty heads as possible 1 in the theater and as little as possible
 of their pretty hats.
