FRENCH HIP BUSTLES.
Coming in This Season With the
Partisan Figure.

a New York correspondent
writes to the Philadelphia Record: (:
1t is so long since big hips were
fashionable that it is almost i'm
possible to believe that they are
really coming in, yet such is the
case. BY midwinter, the modistes
tell us, the French figure will be
the style, and that the woman
who does not wear hip bustles
will have the slightly dowdy look
which marks a lack of style.
The new skirt will be made
round and a little longer upon the
sides and back than in the front.
This allows for the hustle. The
skirt itself may be plain if made
of figured goods. The hustle is
formed of sort of flat pad which
is stuffed with hair to make it
very light. 1t reaches from hip to
hip and in the back is little
thicker than on the sides. 1t
hooks upon the corset or is tied
in front with a ribbon. The skirt
is put on over it and is laid in
place with careful folds by the
art of the modiste.

The
Cruel knife!

The alarming increase in the number
of deaths which occur as the result of a
surgical operation is attracting general
attention, and a strong sentiment
against such methods of treatment is
fast developing among the most intelli-
gent classes. 1t seems that in almost
every case for which the doctors treat
ment is unsuccessful, the learned physi-
clans decide at once that an operation
must be performed, and the keen blade
Of the surgeon is recklessly resorted to.
Doctors are human, and of course are
liable to make mistakes, but their mis-
takes are too fatal to be INDUCED in
promiscuously, and as so many lives are
sacrificed in this manner, 1t is but natural
for the public to believe that half tho
operations are unnecessary, besides be-
ing fearful risk to human life, even II
successful.
1t is positive fact, however, that all
operations are not necessary, and that
majority of them are absolutely under
taken without the slightest chance of
success. The doctors have never been
able to cure blood disease, and sur
gical operation is their only method of
treating deep-seated cases, such as cam
Ger and scrofulous affections. Aside
from the great danger, an operation
never did and never will cure cancer, as
the disease never fails to return. Can
Ger is in the blood, and common sense
teaches anyone that no disease can bo
cut from the blood.

idly grew worse. Mr.. J. n. Murdoch,
the father of the boy, residing at 279
Snodgrass street, Dallas, Texas, writes
when my son, Will, was six years
old, small sore appeared on his lip,
which did not yield to the usual treat

tinued to spread. He was treated by
several good doctors, who said he had
cancer, and advised that an operation
was necessary.
"After much reluctance, we consented,
and they cut down to the jaw bone,
which they scraped. The operation was
a severe one, but thought it was the
only hope for my boy. Before great
while the cancer returned, and began to
grow rapidly. We gave him many rem
edies without relief and finally upon the
advice of friend, decided TO try S.S.S.

NEW BASEBALL REMNANT
NO SECONDHAND RAG FOR THE
CHAMPION HOLSTERS.
500 Voted by the Western League
for an Emblem of VictOry-GOlt on
the Schedule Committee.
sneclal to the indianapolis Journal.


CHICAGO, Oct 21.-The Western League
rnagnates went through the form of award
ing the pennant to Indianapolis at their
annual fall meeting at the Great Northern
Hotel this afternoon. Then they voted 800
to buy the pennant flag, put Mr.. Colt on
the schedule committee along with Messrs.
LOTUS and Killilea, and proceeded to dis
cuss the circuit.
The meeting is not as exciting as some
sessions OF the league have been. Presi-
dent Colt, of the Indianapolis club, says
that little has come up which concerns the
Indianapolis club more than other teams.
Charley Morton. the old manager of the
Minneapolis and Toledo clubs, is here for
the purpose of trying to get the manage
ment of the Indianapolis team. He was in
conference with Mr. Colt a long time to-
day. but Mr.. Colt said it was too early to
decide this subject. While he liked Mr..
Morton personally he could not say whether
there was any chance of his being Sc
lected as w. H. Watkins's successor. Nor
ton, it will be remembered, umpired a few
games in the Western League during the
season just closed. President Colt says
his club will not consider going after play
ers for next seasons team until a manager
is selected.
Grand ltapids is still in the field for a
place III the league. Mr.. Leadley, the owner
Of the 1887 club insists on having the league

interest in it at least to Mr.. Hartman, OF
Des Aloines, while Messrs. Frick and EIiloII,
OF Des MONIES, are at the meeting in the
interest of Des MONIES itself as a member
of the league circuit The matter was not
settled tonight. the board of directors met
in the forenoon and the regular session got
under way about p. m. The following
board of directors for 1898 was chosen:
Columbus, Detroit, Kansas City and Mime
apolis The league voted TO hold the spring
schedule meeting Of the league in Kansas
City. The meeting Will be held the third
Monday in February. One change in the
league constitution was made. 1t is a rule
empowering President Johnson to fine or
suspend any player or manager for disor-
DERBY conduct without the approval of the
board of directors, which has been consid-
cred necessary hitherto
John T. Brush is stopping at the Audi
forum Annex. So far as known his visit to
Chicago has nothing TO do with the base
ball meeting, as he has not appeared at
the hotel where the baseball men are in
session Much comment however, is
caused by his presence in the city tonight.

THOSE RESOLUTIONS.
They Are Worthy the Careful Study
OF Anti-Liquor AgitatOrs.

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal:
That class of good men who are known
as temperance workers" could do them
selves and their cause no better service
than to cut out and preserve, where's they
can be easily referred to, the resolutions
passed by the Retail Liquor Mems Associa-
ton. now in session in this city. Fifty
years ago, and much later, it was a stock
argument against the traffic that no re-
spectacle person could be found to defend
the business by word or pen. The ring of
those resolutions shows that men of decided
ability have taken hand in its defense,
leaving the question Of responsibility to be
determined by everyone's own standard. OF
the resolutions as a whole, it must be con-
ceded that there is a modicum of truth in
almost every one. enough to give PLAUSIBLE
ity to the general conclusion of the whole,
and most emphatically sustaining the posi-
ton of Bishop Newman in his Saratoga
speech. that wisdom required certain con-
cessions the part of some temperance
people, yet the general conclusion is indie
feasible, as the verdict of the American
people will ultimately decree.
Allow me- to call attention to two of the
resolutions which demand immediate and
most searching consideration Of temperance
workers, one of which states a most impor-
tant truth, and the other no less impor-
tant fact Nothing is truer than that
Legislation which is not supported by pub
lie sentiment is sure TO prove impotent and
absolutely harmful. TO public morals This,
it seems to me, should recall temperance
workers from their mad chase after
immediate prohibition and should di-
erect their energies to the real work
of the hour, TO the educating of that
wholesome public opinion which
will not only sustain restrictive laws but

hibitory laws against the saloon as those

spite OF those who have claimed to be the
iProhlbitionists par excellence there has
which will one day eliminate in their abso-
Lutte suppression-as absolute as the sup
preston of the many less crimes against
now prohibited by law, though no law has
ever been able to wholly suppress them.
Thanks to this liquor dealers association
for so emphasizing the defeat of the tenn
perance work. Thanks, also, for the frank
ness with which they state their relation to
politics, most important fact. They are
in no sense political organization. and
take no interest in the contentious of polit-
zeal parties, but they ''scrutinize closely
dates, to the end that our support be given
only to those who will favor our trade"
Some day temperance men Will be as wise
as these serpents and "scrutinize" as close
ly the records of candidates on the liquor
question and emulate them in being indif
ferent to all other political issues.
In one of their propositions they shall
have my most earnest cooperation. as
am sure they win have of all haters of the

by public sentiment. They demand, with
justice, that all discriminating taxes be re-

son why the business should be specially
taxed any more than farming or black

stage until Iney are consumed 1neS6
taxes neither restrain nor regulate the
business. but impose burdens upon con-
sumers that are unjust and unequal, the
manufacturer and middlemen paying not a

only effect being to foster monopolies. The
most impregnable stronghold of the saloon
business to-day is the revenue it flches
from those who use its goods, the saloon
keeper acting as a revenue collector. pass

manufacturer to the government it's share,
less his commission, and through the coun-
ty and city treasurer the local share. If
temperance agitators would confine their
work to reforming drunkards and teaching
abstinence in Sunday schools and the
home, and advocate the absolute divorce
from completely with the saloon through
taxation in all its branches, that public
sentiment" which is necessary to the en-
forcement of prohibitory laws would soon
put anu-saloon laws in the same category

A Few Words from Fitxsimmons ON

Robert Eitzsimmons attended the Seidl
concert yesterday afternoon and was the

of the orchestra recognized the champion
as he walked up the aisle, and they might
have given him an ovation had they dared.
'I enjoyed the concert immensely" said
he last evening after his performance, when
the subject was mentioned to him. 1T was
good music all the way through. And. say,

yersely to the association it would go to
pieces, NJ f. ingalls,. president of the

decision in January Will very likely be
against the railways, but with a moditica-
ton of many Of the harsh points in the
transmissouri decision. If against the rail-
ways, we shall get together and reform our
agreement and adjust il to the decision.
There seems to be an impression with some
parties that If the agreement in the trans
missouri case was affirmed in the rehear-
ing rates would go TO pieces and anarchy
prevail There is not the least danger of
that Every railway official understands
that some agreement is necessary and
when the court decides what can legally
be done we shall all conform to that de-
cision, and so adjust our arrangements as
to be within the law and still protect our
