more completely under the ban OF general
condemnation than the man who yesterday
turned over the reins OF government to

an incoming president a finer opportunity

extended TO Mckinley by adopting bold

Pettlcoat Of Golf Stockings.

Women are ingenious and novel in
the methods they employ to defraud
Uncle Sam of his duties on imported
goods. An argument in favor of a rad
ical reform in the feminine costume
that appears to have been overlooked
is the facilities for smuggling afforded
by the present style. Almost every
thing can be hidden under woman's
voluminous draperies. It would be diff
fcult for man to conceal two dozen
golf stockings on his person, but a
young and slender girl did It the other
day, and was only detected by the mer-
est accident. She was passenger on
steamer that came into New York
last week, and one Of the women in
spectors. Miss Elizabeth Ellis, hap
pened to run against her as she was
waiting on the dock to have her bag
gage examined. Miss Ellis ic!t lump
of something and thought that she had
better investigate. AS result It was
discovered that the young woman was
clad in petticoat made or Solf stock
ings. There were two 1OZen Of them,
worth $3.50 a pair, and It must have
taken a whole spool Of cotton to sew
them into that form.

Mrs. Mckinley Sets the Fashion.

All the femininity Of any consequence
in Washington are wearing their hair
cropped, curled and held at either side
Of the parting by tiny combs. This is
because Mrs. Mckinley, as the first lady
in the land, wears her hair that way,
and, Of course. should be copied. The
curls have come to be known as lad
ministration curls." At the various
summer resorts these danes from the
capital were gazed at in horror at first,
because the fashion is certainly unbe-
coming to almost everyone, but when
the why and wherefore" was learned
maids and matrOns rushed to their
rooms, combed out their Merode curls
and cut them off. Now the Mckinley
curls have made their way from Maine
to the Rio Grande and from Key West
to Klondike, and will doubtless hold
their own until the arrival of some
new social or theatrical star.
Why women should change the fash
ion of wearing their hair is incompre-
hensible, because to every face some
one style is absolutely suited and all
other modes are more or less unbecom-
ing. But let professional beauty or
a French music hall dancer adopt some

At what age Is man most attractive
to woman? It is dificult to say, be-
cause one hardly ever knows how old
man Is. The man himself generally
complicates matters by the way In
which he wears his hair. Obviously,
no man has any right to 60 bald be-
fore he is forty: but If he is bald at
thirty is 1t our fault that We put ten
years on to his age? And then II a boy

few Of us trouble about a mans actual
either as a man or boy, and the ma
jority of women prefer boys. The
grown-up sort of man has none Of the
qualities that attract us in the boy. He
Is oppressed with an ideal, to begin
with-an ideal of what a woman should
be; we have no idea where he got it
from, but We are quite sure, il he ever
found a woman like that she would be
just as dull as he is. However, as his
ideal is the only woman he believes in.
he had better remain true to her; the
rest of us only exist to amuse him
when he wants amusing. He likes us
we'll enough while We are there. He
makes frivolity a business, instead Of
being frivolous because he feels like
it. To be sure, he does it very we'll:
and there Is an artistic finish about HE
conversation which is absent from that
Of the boy. For all that. most of us
prefer the boy who has not grown up.
Boys take us more seriously; and wom-
en- like being taken seriously, though
they may pretend they don't. Boys
have fewer absorbing interests than
the men who are hOpelessly grown up;
and that is another point in their fav-
or, for we like to think that We fill
are frank, too, and they say what they
mean without stopping to think twice
about it; and although 1t is sometimes
expressed SO curiously that We are liza
BILE to miss the point, yet We like 1t
none the less for that. However, AZ
many boys are men at twenty and
many men are still boys at fifty, we
may be considered to have merely beg
ged the question in saying that we pre-
fer boys to men. AS a matter of fact,

Opposed to Mothers Cooking.

Miss Eleanor Innes is a young En-
glishwoman, who declares herself I'M
alterably opposed to that variety of
cooking regarding as sacred in most
families under the title "as mother
cooked" She believes in progress in
the culinary art. She thinks that food
can be prepared nowadays in vastly
more appetizing ways and with infin-
itely less waste than was possible
formerly. She won, at the recent food
and cookery exhibition, the jubilee gold
medal, the highest honor in the gift
OF the association. Previously she had
the honor Of being presented by the
Baroness Burdett Coutts with a gold
medal for excellence in artistic cookery.
Miss 1nnes has an unrivaled collection
Of culinary antiquities, among which
may be mentioned some utensils OF
most curious and intricate workman
ship, presented to her some years ago
by an Irish committee and asserted on
to have been used IN the pal
ace of the famous Brian Boru.

esting to voters in that state to know
also that he has taken advantage OF
the opportunity given him under the
law to issue national bank notes, de-
spite his assertion that the only kind
of paper money which he favors Is
United States notes. The investiga-
ton of the official records of the First
National bank of Jackson, Of which he
is president, shows that it has and
has had for years a very considerable
issue of national bank currency based
upon bonds deposited with the treas
ury, and that in spite of Mr.. Chap
mans insistence that he believes in no
kind of paper money except green
backs, no effort is being made by him
as president of the bank to withdraw

Colored 0Acs-Holders.
Inquiries at the postoffice depart
ment aad department Of justice show
that the recent outrage upon the COL
ored postmaster at Hogansville, Ga, Is
not by any means disposed of. The
assumption of the Democrats that an
event of this character could 60 un-
punished or unnoticed by the present
administration is without foundation.
While the details of the work of these
two departments Of the government in
regard to this case cannot yet be
made public, it is known tnat the en-
tire matter is being thoroughly sifted
and that the perpetrators of the out
rage will certainly be brought to JUS
tice, if all the facilities at the COM
mand of the government for that pur-
pose are sufficient. Nor need the Dem
ocrats of the south or north expect
that incidents of this kind are going
to deter the administration from ap-
pointments of colored men where 9TH
er circumstances seem to render such
action advisable. President Mckinley
and his advisors recognize fully their
duty toward that element of the cit
izenship of the country, and while
there is no intention or desire to force
upon communities oScials who are
distasteful to a majority of the voters
the administration is determined to
stand squarely by that element of the
party and the population and to give
to the colored men, not only Of the
south, but in every state, fair and
just proportion of the public positions

CAMPAIGN IN OHIO.
GEN. WARMERS CANDIDACY
FOR THE SENATE.
u CoAsidered In the Nature Of . Blur
Candidate Chapman's Inconsisten-
oles-Favors Only Gold, Silver and
6roonbScks,
washington Lottery


The reports from Ohio that General
Warner has announced himself as
candidate for the senate creates
good deal of amusement here. Gener-
al Warner has been q well-known fig
ure in Washington ever since his term
in congress long ago, and his appear
ance here has always been a signal
for an outbreak of the silver question.
He has been a pronounced and sue
cessful calamity bowler for years, and
may perhaps be credited with the in
vention of the calamity cry, for he
was among the first, if not the very
first, to make it the burden of his song
in behalf of silver. People have for
years looked upon him as a harmless
and eccentric old man, and the idea
that the Democrats of the great state
OF Ohio would think of sending him to
I'LL the seat occupied by George Pen
-dleton, Allan G. Thurman and other
distinguished representatives of that
party never entered the mind of the
most imaginative student of the polit-
ical field. Nor is it supposed now that
he is seriously in mind by anybody Of
influence or authority in the party.
The impression here is that Warner
has been induced" by Mclean to put
his name in as senatorial candidate
simultaneously with the semi-month-
ly announcement of McLean's with
drawal in the hope of catching few
silver votes and adding another COM
plication to the already befuddled con-
dition of the public mind as to the real
attitude of the Ohio Democrats upon
national issues. 1t is believed that the
announcement that Towne and other
extreme free silver orators have been
driven out of Ohio by Allen O'Myers
and that McLean's having abandoned
the silver feature has SO offended the
silver people that Mclean has deemed
it advisable to try to pull them back
into line by putting Warner to the
front as a senatorial candidate. OF
course nobody supposes that Warner
could command any strength among
the members Of the legislature for
the senate. though his alleged candida
cy might lead a few extreme silverites
to vote for such legislative candidate
as he could personally endorse. The
feeling here is that if Mr. Mclean is
able to scoop in a few silver votes for
members of the legislature by preser-
tation of Warmers name as a senator
ial candidate his entire purpose will

Tasteful Mountaineering Gowns

Women who go into the mountains
for September and October take along
gowns especially prepared for such
trips, and these dresses are worth con-
sideration by those who cannot boast
such excursions. The most tasteful of
them are not unlike what women of
the million wear upon the street, the
difference being a picturesqueness of
finish that is very attractive. Here is
one, simple affair of black wooden
stuff in light weight trimmed as the
picture indicates with black braid. The
fronts of the bloused jacket bodice were
decorated with white satin revers COW
cred with lace, white satin also giving
the plastron and collar, the latter being
smothered in a large lace bow. Some
