The Newest Umbrellas.

The newest umbrellas have oonspicu- ously long handles. 1t is all old fashion revived. For years the handles of the best umbrellas, though richly ornament ed, have been short. Now they are be- ing made from 19 to 15 inches in length. This gives tho umbrella makers a good opportunity for introducing decorative work
 The umbrella most in favor with women at present is made of good, strong quality of ohangeable taffeta silk. Blue and green is a fayorite color con- bination These umbrellas are made with a name plate fastened to the tie. The latest idea for the name plate is to have it made of gilded silver and orna- mented with enamel matching the tints of the umbrella in color.
 The ferrule of these new umbrellas, instead of being wood, with a steel cap, is made quite elaborate. Some of them are of silver. Others are made of the same material as that used for the han Ia

A Soldier on Both Sides During the War
 Finds His Lost Family.
 A little two line want ad ill a New Orleans paper has been tho means of re- uniting q prominent southern family separated 32 years, the discovery of a man supposed to have been dead since the war ali the unraveling of an im- portant government mystery. Alonzo 0. Dengon, rho originally enlisted with the Oonfed rate army St Holly Springs, Miss. ill 1861, but who i'll 1864 enlisted with the Sixteenth Ohio, Company K, at Cincinnati, was i'll camp at Washing ton after Lees surrender. He had trou- ble with Lieutenant Cox of the Ohio regiment and was sentenced to be shot Aug. 28, 1865. Ten days before the day of execution he escaped by assist anee of the guard, and, going to New York, assumed the name Thomas A. Jones, under which alias he has since lived, travelling the world over in search of the family left in Memphis After years ill San Francisco and down the Pacific coast, through all the Central Au6IlCaD L6puDtl0Ss Ie Eot lIubA tO 4N6W Orleans in 1880 and began the search for relatives, knowing that he left . mother and three sisters He travelled 75, 900 miles and spent $11, ,000 in the search, winding up ill Memphis in 1887 with $11 ill his pocket
 The other day Jones, by which name he was known through these 32 years, was in Monroe, La, and, seeing paper with an ad. from Mrs. J. B. Fenn a thrill shot through him. Recognizing the name as that of his sister, Jones ar rived at New Orleans, and publicly an- nounced that he would resume his right name, A. c. Denson. He has done busi- ness, carries life insurance policy, las joined the Masons, Odd Fellows. tae Knights of Pythias and was married under the name of Jones.
 The family is holding great reunion on Howard avenue. The mother, Rebeo- ca Denson, aged 76; Mrs J. B. Fenn, Mrs. Young of Atlanta and Mrs. Julius Ennermoser, three sisters, the latter having two daughters who are teachers ill the public schools, are all present at the feast. Denson is 53 years old and says he fears nothing from the confes- sion. n.-Oincinnati Enquirer

A Place For Her Name.

Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe isspoken of as an author whose name should be inscribed on the Boston Public library. The Boston Transcript pertinently re- marks: "A place should be found in tho lists of honor on the Public library for the name of Harriet Beeoher Stowe. She was still living when the lists of the famous dead were then inscribed. But it is now time to find place for her name on the great roll of honor where, by curious whim of mistake, the name of Rabelais was twice cut in stone. A writer in The Contemporary Review sneers at the achievements of American women because the name of one only, Maria Mitchell, was found worthy of place in the lists of honor on the Boston Public library. A writer in The Forum suggests various explana- tions. But the fact remains that the name of Harriet Beecher Stowe should be recorded in as good place as that of Charlotte Bronte or Jane Austen.

Strode retreated into the build ing, when the elder Leslie pulled a revolver and fired three shots, the first one striking Strode in the left shoulder, passing into the body and severing large artery. Death re- suited in a few moments. These are the facts as brought out at the in- queAt. Capt. Leslie is under arrest, and the son will be held as an access sor5. Great excitement prevails, as the parties are prominent Capt. Leslie is the promoter and builder of the $. & A. Railway, and at present first viee-president. He had just completed five miles of grade from Gtllett into the big timber and ar ranged to put down the steel. In fact, the Captain has been very prominent in business circles ill Stutt- gart, Gillett and all along the road, is admired for his perseverance, and this unfortunate trouble is sadly lamented. Mir Strode was q man who had no known enemies, and his death is generally mourned. Leslie and Strode married sisters, and it is said there had been bad blood be tween them for some years.

 Costly Etiuuette.

The latest pamphlet published by the Commission of historical manuscripts in London contains the following interest ing and curious travesty on etiquette |: "The Duke and Duchess of Norfolk, having been summoned to appear before the house of lords in 1692 i'll order to plead their suit for divorce, it was de- bated whether the lord chancellor, sit ting as chairman, should lower his dig nity by lowing to the duchess and speak ing to her only with his cap in his hand. This question was argued for several days in the house of lords until debate exhausted itself and several duels result ed At length it was decided that the lord chancellor should first receive the bows of the duke and duchess and re- turn them with uncovered head and aft CT that he should replace his cap. This rule was followed to the letter and IS still adhered to today when similar con- tingencies arise.
