"a Friend contributes the following
on the death of Mrs. Alarcott:
Margaret Recico was bora near Mon
treal. Canada, and Is, as near as they
can tell, about 81 years old. Hhe was
married at Montreal in 1925 to Raphael
Marcott, from where they moved to
kankakee, Illinois. where they lived
until 1868 when they crossed the plains
and came to FarpIay, Colo. Here they
remained until 1885 when they moved
TO White river where they have resided
since.
Mrs. Marcott raised large family Of
her own and several grand children.
Always patient and cheerful in her
home, she was loved by all.
Besides husband, who Is few years
her senior, she leaves Eve children, all
of whom are in the prime of life. viz:
Mrs. George Welty, of Cripple Greek;
Leon and Doris MarcOtt, who have re-
sided with her for many years past;
Raphael Marcott, jr., OF Montana; and
Teophiald Marcott, Of Delta. Colo. The
community tenders its heartfelt SYM
pathy to the bereaved family in this,
their hour of grief.
We stand and gaze down on her
peaceful face. 1t will smile on US no
more. We see the every-willing hands
folded above her peaceful breast-so
cold and still. No more her Itps will

Lived for those that loved her,

How the Mohammedan Year Corresponds
With Ours,

The Mohammedan year, as lunar
year, is shorter than ours by 10 days, 81
hours and ID ga seconds This renders
an exact transfer of Mohammedan dates
into dates of our own calendar a very
difficult task. One calculation, which ia
easy and almost accurate, is to deduct
3 per cent from the given Mohammedan
year and to add 622 to the sun thus OBJ
tained-e. g. , our year 1869 A. d. CORE.
sponded to 1879 Of the Essira. II from
this we deduct per cent, or about 80,

must be rather pronounced, and IL should
DO short Mt the sides, not falling below the
hips. These coats are lined in front with
the goods Of which they are composed and
are adorned with stitching and fine pearl
buttons only.
When tailor made bodices arc tight fit
ting, they are lined with satinette, like any
other corsage, the seams being carefully
finished and boned. If they are half fitting
or are to be worn over n silk or cotton
waist that allows them to be removed ut
pleasure, so the lining will be likely to be
seen, they are lined throughout with surah,
satin mervcilleux or silk serge. In this case
the seams Of the outside and the seams Of
the lining are sewed'separately and pressed
open with warm iron, and the seams Of
the lining are then sewcd against the seams
of the outside, thus making fair and
smooth interior to the garment
Serge, light chcviots, clairettcs and thin
cloths, besides the palmer canyascs, are
employed for tailor gowns for warm
weather. Alpaca and mohair are also used
and are very light and cool unless they are
too heavily lined.
An illustration Is given Of travelling

The skirt is quite plain. The jacket has

A close row Of small pearl buttons fastcns

Mrs. Hobart, Mrs. Alger Murat Halstead
and large mum ber OF friends and rail-
road officials, went to Lake Placid to-day
to visit the grave of John Brown. They
took special train of three coaches. AT
Codyville the depot was hand somely deco

rear platform and shook hands with all.
at Lyon Mountain the President again
appeared and for five minutes shook the
hands OF the brawny miners and laborers
who had ceased work to greet him. AT
Saranac, the metropolis of the Adrion-
dacks, there was an immense crowd. A
band played Hail to the Chief" and Tor
ten minutes Mckinley and Hobart stood
on the steps Of their car grasping the
eager hands of those who crowded to greet
them.

After dinner the President gave a reception

Singular Conduct of the
Nicaraguan Gov
ernment.
1t Will Probably Result in a
Transfer of the United
States Legation.
ARRANGEMENTS Have Already Been
Made to Send the Captain
to Costa Rica.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. lin
formation has been received by the State
Department and by Captain Merry that
the Government of Nicaragua is now
ready to receive the San franciscan as
Minister. The attitude OF Nicaragua
has been singularly inconsistent. At
first Zelaya said that he would
be welcomed, then that he would not,
but at Iasys when the Nicaraguans
saw that this Government proposed to
ignore Nicaragua and the other republics
com prising the so-called "Greater Repub-
lie of Central America" they realized that
the American legation would be trans
ferred from Managua, Nicaragua, to San
Jose, Costa Rica. This seems to be the
reason why they are now willing to re-
ceive Captain Merry. But arrangements
have already been made to send Captain
Merry as Minister to Costa Rica, with
headquarters at San Jose. The papers
were mailed by the Secretary of State to
the President at Lake Champlain on Mon
day and it is expected they will reach
here to- morrow with the Presidents ap-
prevail This will dou ubtless be considered
an affront by Nicaragua.
The news leaSed out to-day that the So
called "Greater Republic" withdrew its
Minister (Senor Rodriguez) from Wash
ington sixty days ago because the State
Department and Congress in It's dip,o-
matte and consular appropriation bills
failed TO accredit a Minister to the
Greater Republic" but studiously
avoided its recognition by appropriating a
salary for Nicaragua, Salvador and Costa
Rica. the latter not being member of
the so-caled Greater Republ Rod
riguez left on a leave of absence ostensi-
bly,, but he will not return, nor will the
Greater Republic send any one to the
United States in mis- place until this coun-
try recognizes it a nation.
The real reason why the United States
has persisted in refusing to recognize those
three coun tries as one republic is, because
Nicaragua might (and probably would)
in every case disavow her nationality, and
thus seek to abrogate her treaty with the
United States granting certain rights to
this country in building the canal. The
State Department and mem bers of the
Committee on Foreign Relations of the
Senate and House naturally mistrusted
The Greater Republic" scheme. They
believed that English influence inspired
this confederation, so that Nicaragua
from the canal treaty stipuiatons with
this country. For this reason Mr. Olney
(then Secretary of State) in receiving Rod
rigueZ stated courteously but in plain lam
guage that he was not rece we'd as the
Minister from the "Greater Repub blic,
but from the States of Nicaragua, Saliva
dor and Honduras.
Captain Merry hopes to leave here for
San Francisco on Fridey or Saturday.

J0HN r. GEN7RYS FAST MILE.
Reels OFF the Distance in 2:O2 1-Z
ON Track Fully Two Sec
onds Slow.

POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y, Aug. lin
terest was added to the second day OF the
Breeders Association meeting at the Hud-
son River Driving Park to-day bv the fast
exhibition miles paced by John r. Gentry
and Robert ], with running es. The
track was slow and nobody expected to
see the track record o! 2:O5H, made by
Mascot broken. Therefore there was
genuine surprise when John K Gentry
knocked three seconds off it, going the
mile in 2:02H. This was the fastest mile
paced by Gentry this season.
When Bovine turned Gentry around
after the heat and drove up in front of the
grand stand 5000 spectators went wild
with enthusiasm. Matthew Laird, the
owner and driver OF Rubenstein (2:06),
caught Gentry's mile at 2:0215, the same
as announced by the judges. John S.
Clark, who bred Gentry's dam, made it
quarter of second slower. Both said
that, taking into consideration the condi-
ton OF the track, which had been rained
on for two days, IT was the greatest per-
formance ever accom- plished by John Z.
Gentry or any other horse, as the track
was fully two seconds slow.
Bovine, Gentry's driver. stated that on
the backstretch the track was soggy and
wet in half dozen places, while on the
bomestretch there was bad spot He
had to swerve out for these, otherwise. In
his judgment. Gentry's time would have
been 2: :02 or better.
Robert made two attempts to pa ce a
fast mile. The first time he lost shoe
before reaching the half and took his own
time to the wire. On the second trial b e
made the mile in 2:06

UNFO DED UMORS.
Assistant Secretary Day Not Summoned
to WdshiuOion.

to Washington.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 11.-It is
declared that there is not a word of truth
in the report that Assistant Secretary Day
has been summoned back to Washing
ton. TIE officials of the State Depart
ment say they are at loss to account for
the dispatches in the morning pa pers say
ing Judge Day is to abruptly end his va
cation. Only this morning letter from
Judge Day, written Yesterday, was re-
ceived by Assistant Secretary Cridier in
which he says that he will not return to
Washington until some time between the
1sr ard 10th of Septem Der. In the first
place, there is no reason for Judge Day to
cut short his vacation, for there is no.
thing for him to do at the State Depart
ment, and in the second place, Secretary
Sherman and Assistant Secretarie Adee
and Cridler are ali at the State Depart
ment and have charge of all matters there
There is so little work now on hand
that it is expected that even Secretary
Sherman will go away in few days for
some needed rest. The actual work of the
department IS in the hands of Assistant
Secretaries Adee and Crdler, and all that
Secretary Sherman is doing is exercising
a general supervision of matters. 1t is
said that Secretary Sherman is deter
mined not to talk any more for pubiica-
tion, and the stories that the admini,tra-
ton is greatly worried over his recent in
terview are pronounced only gossip got
up bv Democrats to annoy and EN- barrass
tho President and his Secretary of State.
Judge Day went away to stay until Sep
tember and be intends to do so. The
President Is moi doing any actual work at
Lake Champlain. Although several ap-
pointments have been made out that the
State Department has sent to him, he will
take his own time before announcing
them.
