THE GLOVE FAD RACES.
There Was Never Before Such Extrava-
giant Use Of Hand Coverings.

The extravaganza use Of gloves is prob
ably ut its height just now. There must
be one kind for driving, one for BIZ
cycling, one for shopping, another for
calling and still another for evening
wear.
Driving gloves for spring are made
of lightweight buckskin suede, and gray
is the preferred shade. A glove should
harmonic or contrast with costume,
but never clash. All gloves worn for
driving, bicycling or in games or sports
of any kind should be either tan or gray
and be of two buttoned length.
The newest bicycle glove is made Of
suede finished Isle. with "a kid palm,
which serves the double purpose Of max
ing the gloves strong and protecting the
hand. These have little holes between
the fingers for ventilation, and that is
very happy idea, for, bicycling being
such heating exercise, the hands are
very likely to perspire, which is not
only intensely uncomfortable, but ruin
GUS TO the glove.
The proper glove for shopping is
made of a combination of silk and cas-
tor. The very thought of silk gloves is
enough to send a chill down ones spine,
but in these the silk is not evident.
Castor is material, glace in finish,
which is heavier than suede and not
quite so heavy as buckskin. For calling
and the theater the gloves are all in
light shades-white, grays in shades
varying from pearl to slate and yellows
from pale lemon to tans.
The newest shade, and one destined
to become favorite, is an old one re-
vived-ash of roses or mauve. Old
styles, like bad pennies, are sure to
come back, and this new shade, which
has not been worn in anything for so
many years, wall be welcome prodi-

BUTTONS MADE OF MILK.

Combs and Brushes Will Also Be Manu-
featured of the Same Material.
For long time buttons and other ar
ticles for which bone is generally used
have been made from CONCEALED blood,
purchased by the button makers at the
slaughter houses and treated with some
substance that hardens it to the suffi-
cient consistency.
From blood to milk is long remove,
but the same articles that are made
from blood can be made from milk by a
process recently invented by an Eng
lishman named James Callander and
soon to be introduced into this country.
The milk used is the skimmilk that
is of little use for domestic purposes
and can be obtained very cheaply. 1t is
the milk that remains after the cream
has been skinned off.
The process of turning this liquid in
to buttons, pool balls, combs, backs oI
hairbrushes and similar articles con-
sists, first, of straining the milk through
a cloth, in order to remove every ves-
tige of cream, and then mixing it with
substance the ingredients of which
are secret of the inventor and COM
pressing it.
At the end of three days the SUBJ
stance is as solid as celluloid and is
ready to be cut and shaped in any way
the manufacturer wishes. -Philadelphia

HOARD OF A REClUSE.
A Misery Old Woman Dies and Leaves
silks and Jewels Behind.

A Misery Old Woman Dies and Leaves
silks and Jewels Behind.
Residents of Willett street, New
York, were excited recently over the re-
ported finding of fabulous sums of mon
ey and jewels of rare value among the
effects of the mysterious woman who
for 80 years had lived on the top floor
of tenement ON that thoroughfare. An
ambulance surgeon and the housekeeper
of the house were the only persons pres
ent when she died early in the day. No
relatives or friends appeared to care for
the body, and it was removed to the
morgue.
Not long ago she fell i'll. A week
or so later the housekeeper, Mrs. Kaiser,
.happened to remember that she had not
seen Mrs. Dunn for some time. She
went up stairs and found the woman
deathly sick. She summoned an ambu
lance, and one responded from Gouver-
neur hospital. She died soon after DR..
Pafford arrived.
Detectives visited the apartments and
examined the dead woman's effects. In
stout trunk, covered with dust and
litter, were found number or SILK
dresses made in the style of half GEN.
fury ago.
No one ever remembered Mrs. Dunn
to have been dressed in anything but
the simplest garments. In another box
was found handbook of the Bowery
Savings bank. in which was deposited
to Mrs. Dunn's credit 500.
In well worn jewel case were found
an old fashioned brooch set with ten
diamonds and several other bits of dia-
mond jewelry. A number of other val
liable trinkets were found in the litter
of the rooms.
Few living in the street know any
thing about Mrs. Dunn's early life. 1t
was said that 26 years ago the woman
had separated from her husband and
lived the life of recluse ever since.

CALUMET, Mich, April 80, 1897.

CALUMET, Mich, April 30, 1897.
To the EditOr:-ln a letter OF the 9th
OF April last, published in your worthy
paper, Mr.. Alex Lelnonen has given
description OF the Finnish people IN this
country not corresponding with the
truth. AS TO the "Laestadians," they
may reply for themselves il they have any
reason. But concerning the Finnish
church OF America, it must be stated that
there are to be found about 100 legally
organized Evangelical Lutheran congre-
cations. IL, now, as stated by Mr..
hen" thirty OF those belong to the
Suomi synod lin the TACT that body ID
composed only by some few the Others
must belong 10 the other body organized.
The most OF those use the name OF ma
tionaP church, but most OF their minis
tiers we're ordained in the Finnish Church
OF America. The episcopal duties OF this
church are not inv ested in any seat,
out in most able minister. When the
Suomi synod was in it's glory, Its mem
bership, including women and children,
was about 5000. This is number
making a email part OF the 10000
Firms.
The tendence and spirit OF Suomi synod
ls, as shown by the following extract
omi synod, published at Hancock May L,
1895:
The institutions OF our mother coun-
try are much mere developed than those
oil America. IL anyone be
able, he may first amend tie government
OF the United States. - The
officials OF this country are thoroughly
rotten and the money enchants them all
and their s-ytions are slightly controlled
In this country, there are to
be found slavery, misery and unlawful
ness; but in our Lowell mother country,
there are to be found true freedom,
good order and able officials."
We, citizens OF the United States, do In
qulre why the persons running the Suomi
tynod do not return to their "loved
mother country; why they wish to edu-
cate ourchildren in their principles? The
best service they can do us, is that they
leave us and our beloved adopted coun-
try. ABR. LANTTO.
The NEWS, after having allowed each
faction, for there ere evidently two at
least, to air its We've, must decline any
further communication on the subject.

The acceptance OF the resignation Of
President r. NJ. Hoar and the selection Of
.Joseph Croze to fill the place was noted
in Yesterdays NEWS, but it was not ac-
complished without some friction. When
the meeting had been called to order a
member of the council made a motion to
accept the resignation OF Mr.. Hoar which
had been presented at the first regular
meeting OF the year, but which had not
been acted upon at that time. President
pro tenn Joseph Croze put the motion
and simultaneously Mr.. Hoar broke In
with the statement that he desired to
withdraw the resignation, The vote
was taken viva voce, however, and de-
cIared carried. There was an awkward
pause. Some member finally asked for
an aye and nay vote and the clerk called
the roll and each member resp onded" aye
Then Mr.. Croze was selected to I'LL the va
cant position and the council proceeded
with other work.
Mr.. Hoar contended that the proceed
ings were not regular. He was taken by
surprise and given no opportunity to
withdraw his resignation as he desired.
He thought the minutes OF the previous
meeting should have been first read and
when the reading had progressed to the
point mentioning his resignation he
would have stated that he desired to
undo that act.
One oil the councilmen interviewed by
the NEWS said that the meeting was an
adjourned one and but continuation OF
the regular meeting and therefore it was
unnecessary to read the minutes. In
fact, the minutes were not yet complete,
The resignation was before them and
they acted uponit. When the resignation
was first handed in, the councilman said,
Mr.. Hoar had said he took the action be.
cause he thought the people had lost con-
fdence in him. No action was taken at
that time because the members OF the
council desired to inform themselves OF
the wishes of their constituents. Their
action in accepting it reflected the opin.
ion OF the public as the members found it
by inquiry.
