Hereditary Desire to Steal.

There are persons who seriously re.
gard kleptomania as disease, and boil.
ster up their theory by plausible rea-
soning. A writer In the Progressive
Review gives the following explanation
of his ideas upon the subject: "Some
near ancestor, possibly n father, who
has pandered to an undisciplined extent
to the collecting instinct, using all the
weapons with which modern CONNER
cialism has assured him, knowing no
scruples, needing no voice Of con-

plentiful enough to warrant anyone GO
Ing In for them. aud women who fear
that the blouse idea h soon to be over
done deem them safer. But In new
ness and stylishness there Is Just a.
much In the blouse's favor as compari-
son of these two group suggests.
Skirts are so much narrower now, so
lacking In folds, that we are not In
clIncd to fuss over the added length. A
tailor skirt should give the effect OF
dragging slightly, the foot pushing
from under 1t In front. Many different
kinds of finish are offered In place Of
braid or velvet for the hem, and most
OF the popular ones are In the form Of
plush-like roll that Is almost a little
brush. Such 'braid" when In place
gives a rich finish to the foot Of the
skirt, and at the same time almost
defies wear. Then II so effectually lifts
the skirt itself from contact with the
ground, that even though the skirt
seems long 1t Is not as liable to injury
from that fact as was the skirt of some
time ago, which, though short, still
touched at the curb and wore out along
the edge In spite Of oft changed braid.
Certainly the long skirt is the more
becoming to the average woman, and
the fall from waist to hem of smooth
faced cloth In long folds, or rather In
a graceful sweep, for there are no folds
now, is always beautiful.
Positively tailor skirts must be lined
with silk. The very brightest colors are
used, flame scarlet and bright orange
being the newest. while gray is equally
new as a quiet shade. Hem ruffies are
appearing again, and many of these
are finished at the edge with spiral
braid.
With so much in tailor styles that Is
elaborate the line between the work of
the tailor and that of the dressmaker Is
not SO plain as it once was, yet 1t really
Is as sharp as ever. 1t Is decreed posi-
lively that any cloth gown. no matter
how heavily braided or strapped, how
deliberately lined, or how complicated
may be the effect of cut, may be called
a tailor gown II only no trace Of any
material but cloth appears, except. Of

first sight as new-are of this order.
Quieter taste and a desire for some
thing that shall be assuredly durable
lead generally toward the tight fit. 1t
is in this cut, too, that the more strik-
ing shades are most commonly en-
ployed, though the subdued shades get
there also. The bodice of the initial IL
lustration was In the stylish copper red
broadcloth, trimmed with black braid
and belted with the goods, and the ac-
companying skirt reddish cloth check
ture the left hand rig was dark gray
ladies' cloth trimmed with mink and
fine black braid; next 1t was n black
camel's hair, lined with fine black
braid and edged with Persian lamb;
the third model was carried out in
green wh!ocord, and was lined with
braid in a pretty modification of mill
tary effect, the braid interlacing on the
sleeves; and the last of the row was
fawn canvas, tucked throughout and
edged with plain wide braid. So many
changes are rung on this one effect that
n blouse need never be commonplace or
"just like all the rest" The front
blouse may or may not start from I'M
der the arms, and there may be lot
of pleats, folds and bagginess all along
the front of the belt, or the looseness
may be in almost shield fiatness. The
contour Of the bust is suggested, though
not followed, and n properly made
blouse by no means conceals mag
nificent figure. while 1t will mercifully
soften the ugliness OF bad one.
Lightweight shirt waists In soft silk
or fronts are worn under many Of the
blouse jacket bodices to tailor gowns,
and II Is difficult to tell whether the
upper garment is an outside jacket or
the bodice itself. The wearer herself
is likely to become mixed, because the
same bodice may be worn either way.
A majority Of tailor bodices fasten at

~ Lse1ing Men.
The initial step toward what may be the
dnal termination Of the vexed Indian
problem In the Indian Territory has just
been taken BY Chief Isparcecher In spe-
cIal message TO the Greek council. The
plan advocated IL supposed to be the re
suit OF the recent conference OF leaders
OF the Cherokee. Greek and Seminole
tribes. and Chief Maycs OF the Cherokee
Nation 10 known to favor the plan. In
his message Chief Isparcecher says: Our
EFFORT TO treat with the United states
Government has proved unsuccessful and
we can now have no hope Of continuing
our government much longer as. we now
do by the terms Of any new treaty. The
time has now come. In my opinion, wben
the citizens OF the five nations should get
together and agree upon the esta adjustment
OF general government by which we may
perpetunte the rights of self-government.
Should we be attached to Oklahoma ms a
territory or State this right of self-govern-
ment will be taken from us by the superior
number of its voting population. None Of
US wants such connection with OKLA
homa, yet there are strong efforts being
made by politicians for single statehood
including the five nations. They are yet
the sovereigns of their soil and politically
free born, with the right to shape for
themselves government that will be for
the protection OF their lives and property"
In conclusion the chief recommends the
holding of n convention of the leading men
Of the five civilized tribes, to the end that
the United States Government may re-
ceive definite proposals looking to the es-
tablishment of a government "of the In
dams and for the Indians of the FIVE civil
lied tribes"

She, unable to exercise her instinct In

color as the first mark to distinguish

that copper red, all shades OF gray,

HONOR TO A HEROINE.
Public Appearance of Senora Cisner
in New York City.

Public Appearance of Sonora Cisneros
in New York City.
The popular reception to Miss Evange-
line CosiO y Cisneros, in Madison Square,
New York, the other night. was an extra
ordinary demonstration. Fully $4,000
persons, probably one-third of them well
dressed women, crowded the upper half Of
Madison Square park and filled Broadway
and Fifth avenue and waited patiently for
the congratulatory speeches to be finished
and the Cuban heroine to appear.
j. Lincoln De Zayas was speaking when
carriage containing Miss Cosio and Carl
Decker, her rescuer, appeared at the
stand. Attired in white satin and envel-
oped in huge fur-caped cloak, the Cuban
girl mounted the narrow steps to the pat
form, bowling and smiling to the people.
Once on the platform, Mr.. Decker led his
charge down the aisle between the must
clans to the front of the platform. Miss
Cosio Cisneros' appearance was the sig
nal for a tremendous demonstration by
the crowd, which stretched out for 100
yards before her. The men yelled and
waved their hats, the women waved their
handkerchiefs and the band played a Gu
ban battle song. With a bouquet in her
right hand and pleased, but difiident ex-
preston on her face. Miss Cisneros bowed
to her audience, and then turned to Mr.
Decker, indicating that she wanted him
to understand that the applause was as
much for him as for her.
For several moments the two stood
forth, while the cheering continued Then
Miss Cisneros was led back to the rear Of
the platform, where she bowed and smiled
to the crowd on that side of the platform.
Then she descended the steps to the car
riage, which wns driven around the square
and back to Delmonico's. and the recep-
ton was continued. Previous to the ap-

speeches interspersed with selections by

and introduced the speakers. United

said it was the duty Of our Government
to grant belligerency to the Cubans.

More Trouble for Spain.

The Porto Ricans of New York are
talking about another uprising in Spain's
minor colony in the West Indies. They
threw out dark hints about an expedition
that Is daily expected to land, and talk
with confidence Of being able to swcer
Capt. Gen. Marin and the 5000 Spanish
regular troops into the sea. The Spanish
volunteers, who number about 1000 or
the island, are not taken into considera-
ton, but are dismissed by the plotters as
men who never fight. Several Porto Ric-
ans have arrived in New York within the
last week with news from the island that
has stirred up the fires Of revolution
among the exiles who are there. They
have declared that Porto Rico will not
accept autonomy and that an uprising
will take place before Spain has an -
portunity to inaugurate the proposed re-
forms.

The Line to BE Agreed Upon.

1t is believed in Washington that in
view of the great prominence Alaska has
achieved owing to the recent gold dis
coveries and the Importance Of definitely
fixing the boundary line between our terri
tory and that Of the Dominion of Canada
that the Senate, when il assemblies in De-
cember, will take early action upon the
treaty pending between Great Britain and
the United States for the survey and
marking Of the 141st meridian. The 141st
meridian marks the eastern boundary Of
Alaska down to within ten marine leagues
Of the southern coast, where the line
trends to the southeast, keeping that dis
lance from the coast. Concerning the
141st meridian there is, of course, no con-
troversy between the United States and
Great Britain, but no basis Of settlement
of the southeastern line has yet been
reached by the two countries. But in the
determination mary intricate questions
are involved; whether the coast line shall
be assumed to follow the sinuousities of
the shore or run from headland to head
land; or, whether the line shall be consid-
cred to run ten marine leagues from the
outer shore of the island, which form a
sort of archipelago along the coast. The
Government officials who have studied
the question are confident that our title
includes the islands and ten marine
leagues OF territory from the coast line
with all its sinuosities.
