AFTER THE BILL.

Well, the Bradley Martins have had

of the ballroom. The common people"
didn't take enough interest in the af-
fair to turn out in any great numbers
to see what could be seen on the out
side. And the thing passed off without
any more general excitement than that
created by the immense amounts of
very diluted 'hogwash" printed in the
metropolitan and other newspapers,
much of which wasn't read by those
who had any real interest in life. Per-
haps next Sunday there will be some
sermons about it and then there will
be comparative quiet until the next
Sign of the times
Hasn't too much been made of the
grand ball? The Bradley Martins could
afford to give it. At least we hope, for
the sake of those who did the work,
that they could. Most Of those who
made themselves more or less ridicu@
lous in costumes to which they were
not accustomed could also afford to buy
these costumes. Some of them are
perhaps realizing now that they

power and security in Society. Who
has been harmed, except those who
thought they ought to have been in
vited and were not and those who went
and made themselves ridiculous? So
far as the moral quality of the per-
formance is concerned we think the
general criticism is that it was more
foolish than wrong. To many it APP
pears altogether ridiculous that lot
of American citizens and citizenesses
should rig themselves up in initiative
and imaginative splendor and try to
appear as much like distinguished for

sible Instead of arousing discomfort
and waking up socialism and anarchy
the ball seems to us to have aroused
good natured contempt and a feeling
that those who took part in it had a
very small return for much trouble and
expense.
AS a ''sign of the times" the ball
didn't amount to much. A better sign
of the times is the way it is looked
upon by the tolerant, good-natured and
sensible people of the country, who are
still in large and effective majority.

FASHION NOTES.
A Highly Recommended Counterfeit.


While the furriers have been delight
ing their customers by the richness and
beauty of their devices, they have at
the same time stimulated the makers
of imitation furs, and several copies of
peltry have appeared this winter that
certainly make fine appearance on
the shop counter. The bodice and skirt
trimming of this pictured dress were
from one of these new materials, an
excellent imitation of mink, and if the
dealer was to be believed, the stuff was
all that could be desired for durability.
The price, of course, was away below
the cost of real mink, so there was
temptation in it. even If the enthusiasts

VERY LIVELY YOUNG GENTLEMEN.
People who live in New Haven know
what young gentlemen of an American
University can occasionally do in the
way of making things lively. But such
young gentlemen have done nothing
lately, or perhaps ever, that would
equal in liveliness- the recent perform
ance of the medical students in the
University at Athens, Greece. The
trouble at the Athens University be-
gan in a rebuke addressed by DR.. Gal
vani, professor of medicine, to some
students who interrupted him while he
was performing a critical operation.
The students chose to consider them
selves insulted although DR.. Galvani,
who is man of conciliatory manners,
and the most eminent surgeon in
Greece, assured them that he had no
intention of doing anything of the sort.
They would not accept the explanation,
but clamored for his resignation, and.

When the great trans-Siberian rail-
road, now being built by the Russian
government, is completed, it is likely
that there will be a great reduction in
the time now required for circling the
globe According to Dr. De Karnet, q
prominent Russian, who has been lee
turing in Vancouver, B. G., direct and
rapid steam communication between
Wladivostock, Siberia and Vancouver
will follow the opening Of the great
railroad. This, he thinks, with the CO.
operation of the Canadian Pacific rail-
road, would place British Columbia
in an ACKNOWLEDGMENT route that

A traveller who arrived at Trieste on
an Austrian Lloyd steamer a few
weeks ago had an experience that he
will not soon forget. He was from
Bombay. and the italian authorities

land at all, but finally permitted him
to do SO. on condition that he submit

his baggage should be carefully sealed
To this he consented, and in his prison

the engine and the baggage car, he
started for the north. At Undine the
formalities of inspection and fumiga-
tion were again carried out. AT Vero-
ma the process was repeated, and then
AIilan's officials tried their hands at the
work before sending him on toward the
Swiss frontier. There they were still
more cautious. for they refused to let
whatever. So back to Milan he was
taken, still in the sealed car. Here
the farce ended, for after fifth exam

The report of the commissioner of
banking in Michigan gives some inter

State banks and three national banks
went into voluntary liquidation, while
four State banks, four national banks
and four private banks failed The
eight State and national banks that
failed had an aggregate capital of

however, that the failure of all Of the
