The COmbBnAtie9 Is as Old as Time and
 Not New Ed.
 The critic who finds much to blame in modern women in the number of jewels they wear on both this and the other side of the Atlantic will find that history had set the fashion long before the fair creatures of today had opened their lovely eyes. According to Pliny, L4ollia Paulina, the wife of tCaligula, wore on her hands, arms, neck, head and waist pearls and diamonds to the value of $1,680,0O0 Faustipa had a ring worth $2O0, 900, Domitia possessed one worth $500, 900, and C@sonia had bracelet worth $400, 900. Seneca cried out that one pearl would no longer do for lady, but she must insist on at least three for each shell like ear. The weight of these, it is hard to believe, could ever be endured by even the vain est of fair maids and matrons
 There were women in ancient Rome whose sole occupation was healing the torn ears of ladies whose ornaments had proved too heavy for the pretty aobes. Poppma's earrings were worth $750,099, and Calpurnia, the wife of the mighty Julius Caesar. had a pair valued at twice that sua. Later on the extravaganza had not seemed to havo died out Marie de- Medici had dress prepared for the baptism of her chil- dren, and when she attempted to wear the marvellous creation she found that 1t was so heavy that she could not stand in 1t. It was trimmed with 92,O0Q pearls and 5000 diamonds
 Men, however, excel!ed in costly ap- parel in the middle ages, and Philip the Good of Burgundy frequently wore jewels valued at $20O,OOO. When he walked along the streets, people climb ed oyer each other to get peep at him. The Duke of Buckingham once wore at the court of St. James 8 costume cost ing $40O,O0O The dress of the nobles of the middle ages was literally covered with gold and precious stones. -Chioa- go News.

Good Man to be Dead.

Philip LIshley, executed at Tucson July 9. for killing his brother. soldier, was man devoid of human mental education = but having. the fullest brute animal sence his very actions for the last few days of his life was one of brute of execution, he walked briskly. or rather run to the scaffold, there with out q quiver in his oice he read his declaration of the unfair treatment given him, going into virulent abuse of some of the officers whom he had come in contact. and praising others almost in the same straim, acting jocular with taint of earnestness that he would re- turn and haunt Judge Bethune, F. w. Wakefield and others, going so far as to say that if it was in his power in the next world he would have them dead by that evening.
 The only act renecting any humane symptoms was when he patted Sheriff LeatherwOod on the back, (while stand ing on the scaffold) saying 'gentlemen be good to this old man, he is a good man and will soon be feeble, so act to him all of you as if you were married to him, and do not let him suffer in his old age"
 No doubt Philip Lashley would have led the fore most in battle and been among the hottest fire in time of war but in peace q dangerous man.
