OLD MEN NEED NOT APPLY

"The atrocious crime of being young man. is not, as a general thing, visit ed with capital punishment in any part of this country, and even in conserva- tive New Haven it is often allowed to have mitigating circumstances. But it appears that there are places where the equally atrocious crime of being an old man is not treated with any leniency.
 An advertisement for a pastor ap- peared in a religious paper the other day and it said that no candidate over 40 years old need apply This advertise ment has called attention to the fact that old pastors are not in demand A bishop of the Episcopal church is re- ported as saying that he finds it almost impossible to get a parish for any clergyman who is over 40 years old, and that as clergymen come nearer to 50 or SO. the prejudice against them be- comes boycott. That this prejudice is not well founded will be clear to any body who looks about and sees what men who are over 50 are doing in all branches of activity And that even an old man. may be useful is shown by one who points out that Chancellor Kent wrote his commentaries after CO., Long after 70 Bismarck and Won Moltke were at the very fullness of their pow CT, and led the armies which conquered France. Gladstone's greatest achieve rnents were reached after he had passed 70. At Fl Michael Angelo began one of his greatest works, Lord John Camp bell was appointed chief justice of Eng land, Lord Palmerston was made prime minister and Benjamin Franklin be- came the head of commission to the court of France. At 73, Butcher com manded in the battle of Ligny At 76 Procter wrote his memoirs of Charles Lamb and Humboldt produced one of his best works. At 67 Izaak Walton published his life of George Herbert. At 7S Calico prepared his treatise on the secondary light of the moon, and Lord Brougham edited Newton's "Prin- cipia." At 80 Humboldt brought out a new edition of his works. At S1 Ben janin Franklin made his great speech in the convention that framed the con- stitution of the United States. And so forth and so on.
 It takes a good deal of skill to tell when a man is dead. Some men are as dead at 40 as they are at 70.

HIGH FINANCE

That was cheering and an instrue- tive scene in the sub-treasury in Wall street Monday afternoon. MT. zlmmer- mann, a member of firm that deals in all kinds of money, was there doing business. He had many patrons to serve. He hustled about the rotunda with some of his clients beside him. He turned in the greenbaclls by the bushel. The gold coin was run out to him on the hand trucks from the gold vault. With a list of the allotment of bonds to his patrons in his hand, he checked off the gold and ordered it back into the gold vault, at the same time handing in to the government bond clerk cer- tificate Of deposit announcing that so much gold had been deposited by him to pay for MT. So and Sos bonds.
 This performance attracted the at tention of the Hon. Conrad N. Jordan, who represents the United States as the assistant treasurer thereof and who is the boss of the sub-treasury. He walked out into the rotunda and sharply objected to MT. Zimmermann's very open and direct way or doing business with the United States. MT. Zinmer- man sharply objected to MT. Jordan's way of doing business with him and af- terward had the satisfaction of calling him "a damned ass"
 Of course Mr. Zimmerman should not have called MT. Jordan "a damned ass" It wasn't pretty, it probably wasn't ac- curate, and didn't do any good. But if, without using any harsh adjectives, he had made some remarks about the asinine policy of the United States gov ernment which made it possible for him to do business in the way objected to by MT. Jordan he would have hit the nail on the head. And he might well have heaped few coals of fire on MT. Jordan's already warm head by explaining that MT. Jordan's equilibrium had been so disturbed by what he had seen of the workings of that asinine policy that he was excusable for not being as calm as usual.

By this river voyage the question which had puzzled Livingstone for eleven years was solved. It is a noticeable fact that when I began my descent of the Congo I was the only white man--eXcepting my companion, Frank Pocock--to be found between Zambesi and the Bahr-el-Ghazai, and between Zanzibar and the Lower Congo.

A Few Hints Which May Prove Useful to
 Ladies.

A Few Hints Which May Prove Useful to | Ladies.
 (From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.)
 It is necessary before the real work or washing commences to have the embroi- deries themselves finished according to certain rules of needlework. if the for mer is to be a success. The few follow ing hints will be of assistance to any one who not only launders her own em- broideries, but does the needlework also.
 Many ladies prefer to wash and press their own pieces for table decoration for unless the work is done by skillful laundress they are apt to be ruined in color or stretched out of shape in the ironing.
 First only the best wash silks should be used, and it is a mistake to use very strong colorlng on pure white linen, as 1 even the palest shades show darker than one thinks after being massed in solid on the white background. l Never use knot, as each one will show plainly after the piece is pressed, no matter how we'll it may be disguised while working.
 Also, never cross from one part of a design to another, leaving connecting thread; rather break it off and com mence again. This may seem an un- necessary precaution, as with fine BOO ,silk and rather heavy material 1t would not be liable to show on the right side; but the habit once formed is hard to overcome; and if sheer lawn or any oth- CT transparent material is used the eff feet will be very bad.
 l When the embroidery is complete, put the whole piece right into studs formed of tepid water and the purest white soap and wash carefully, rubbing the soap on the parts of the design where the stamping still remains distinct, and work 1t between the fingers until all trace of the pattern is gone from the linen, treating in the same way any parts of the linen which have become especially soiled. Use care not to have the water very hot.
 Rinse thoroughly of the soap and wiring out gently as much of the water as possible. stretch into shape, fold evenly, and roll up ready for pressing. This should be done at once, before it has time to dry,
 On a perfectly clean cloth over thin flannel or cotton batting, spread the embroidery wrong side up, and with as hot an iron as can be used without fear of scorching, begin the pressing from the center outward, between the iron and the work, until partly dried. Then press out the wrinkles toward the edges, which can be stretched in the finishing. Never press any embroidery on the fright side, as itis ruined in this way.
 When the piece is ironed on the wrong side tiil thoroughly dry. turn it and run the iron over the plain surface Of the linen and over the hemstitched edge, if there be such finish

in 1Si5, in lSiS, in 1872 and 1873, and in 1891, each low stage being followed by period of high water which has kept the average nearly unchanged, For in- stance the mean for the sixteen yeans from 1880 to 1895 is only three inches lower than the mean for the sixteen years from 1860 to 1875. The demand for action to raise the lakes results from deeper vessels and not from lower lake levels, but the demand Is a growing and pressing one and must be met,
 Good While 1t is pleasing to read that the great lakes in New Jersey, Lou isiana and Mississippi have been under going a lowering of their mean level t would not be pleasing to know that the great lakes of the north are in danger of becoming swamps,

GREAT LAKES ALL EIGHT,

Those who have been lying awake nights worrying about the low water in
 the great lakes of the northern part of this country can turn over and go to
 sleep. A committee of the, United States senate says so, and if that isn't enough
 William P. Judson, civil engineer of OsWego, can furnish more. He says that indications for the future can only
 be based upon definite knowledge of the past. Such knowledge gives full assur- ance that the lakes will soon regain their normal levels and that the present low water is merely a natural result of the extreme drought which has, during 1895. affected not only the lake region,
 but the entire United States. The lake levels have, it is true, been lower in the last three months of 1895 than ever be- fore since 1S19, ibut only about one-half foot lower than in several former years. So long ago as 1919, before the lake re- zion had been affected in any way by the works of man. the lake level was within seven inches of the low water of 1895; it again reached the 1s19 tow level

out of fashion. They will be worn in velvet, silk and satin, they will be worn With both high necked and low necked gowns. The fashion is too becoming a one and the dressiness of effect too pret- ty and obtained too economically to let the fashion go by for long time.
 The spring materials are out and it is safe to plan to make over biscuit and linen-colored gowns for to judge by the new materials, these colors are to be re- vived. Further than that, there seems little reason to believe that the coming season will inflict upon us any impera- tive new color. Mode and linen colors rose, turquoise, hunters green and grass green seem to be the holding shades.

FOUR SMART LONDON HoMEN.
How They Look and Dress-Lady War
 wick's "COl'ar of ycnu'.'' UOrresdondepce of Vanitvh

How They Look and Dress-Lady War wick's "Col'ar of yenu'.' [Corresdondence of yanity.) | Now, if were to pick out the four smartest women in London, I should certainly name Lady Algernon Lennox, | Lady Warwick, Lady Eco Sturt and Lady Norreys.
 Lady Algernon Lennox is so smart 1 that no one has yet discovered that she is really not in the very least good look ing, and, when the beauties of London society are mentioned, she is nearly all ways included in their number. As a matter of fact she has just escaped be- | ing a very plain woman, but she has a good figure and the knack of perfect dressing, which her sister, Lady War wick, also has to remarkable degree. | Even without her beauty, Lady War wick would always be noticeable when- ever she is seen. Sometimes she is al- most theatrical in her effects. remem- Der her one night at the opera, all in Mephistophelean scarlet, with not an ornament of any kind on her white | as it seemd, in scarlet net with yiv- i'd aigrette springing up where it was caught together Lady Warwick has one of the prettiest necks that ever was seen; at the base of her throat is that lpretty crease which some French artist once named "the collar of Venus" :" Lady Norreys, although never gorgeous, | is always beautifully neat, and now-a- days neatness certainly means smart | ness.
 Lady Eco Sturt is smart in a more gorgeous fashion She has beautiful eoloring and a general air of magnifi- cence, which fades away into thin air unless she is appropriately clad. Her features are actually ugly, but she has a very good figure, and her clothes are simply superb The last time l saw her at night she was dressed in white and silver, in the dress known as 'the snake dress" because it was in the princess style, with silver sequins overlapping each other at the waist, and then spreading further apart as they went up the bodice and down on to the skirt; around the waist, too, was a silver snake with big ruby eyes. Lady Eco never wears any tight ornaments round her throat, only string of pearls thrown loosely round her neck; and her favorite ornament in her hair is very
 large diamond crescent set jauntily
 aslant. Her opera cloak that night was ruby velvet reaching to her feet and lined with Russian sables, which had cost fS00.
