old soldiers in the parade last Thursday
doff their caps. Standing on the corner
Of Main and Douglas was TWO persons.
One was girl representing the Goddess
Of Liberty and the other was a boy de-
and a hip, hip, hurrah from the old sol

ADVANTAGES oF MODERN METHOD |

Mrs. Sallie Toler says that from reading
the accounts of the new long range guns
now in use one would be inclined to think
that a person could wait till shot was
fired and then notify his friends by tele-
graph that they were in danger and would
better change positions.

PAY TO WEAR THE BREEcHEs.
Women I'm France Are Permitted to
Wear Trousers.

They allow women TO wear male attire
in France. but they are taxed for the
privilege. The French government charges
women $40 to $3.50 per year for wearing
the trousers. This. however. does not
give every woman who is willing to pay
the tax a right to wear such garments.
The government confers the right as a
tribute to great merit, and makes it, in
fact, sort of decoration given to women
as the ribbon of the Legion Of Honor is
given to men. The only women to whom
has been granted the right to wear male
attire are Georges Sand. Rosa Bonheur,
Mime. Dieulafoy. the Persian archaeolo-
gist; Mime. Foucalt. the bearded woman,
and two feminine sculptors. Nine. Four.

the right of wearing male attire by Won

seen in the recent case Of Nine. de Val.
sayre. This lady is well known for her
propensity to fight duels. and her efforts
to get elected to the French assembly.
Last year she petitioned the government
for a right to wear mems clothes. but
the French authorities refused her peti'
ton. She is a pretty woman with a
profusion of blonde hair.

budget of news from the Orient.

large detachments of troops are being
landed in the Hermit's kingdom.
News is also at hand from Tien Tsin
that large number OF Japanese spies
have been captured by the Russians at
Port Arthur and shot. Seven Japanese,
all officers of the imperial Japanese army,
were taken, and on their persons were
found drawings of the principal fortifica-
tions. But day elapsed after their cap
ture before they were marched out before
a firing party of Russians and summarily
shot.
The rebels in Chung Kiang, according
to advices by the Glenogle, are increasing
in power daily. The Tung Liang & How
Chow railroad is completely under their
control. They have compelled well-to-do
people to provide them with money and
provisions and are making weapons day
and night. Merchants in Chung Kiang
have wired to Shanghai and other ports
stopping the shipment OF goods.

There was slight abatement of the wind
this morning, but the snow still fell and
drifted badly, and the temperature
dropped rapidly. 1t looked this morning
as though the blizzard would continue all
day, but at 10 o'clock there was break
ing away in the west, and finally the
storm ceased altogether, and the severest
blizzard since the memorable blizzard Of
March, 1888, came to an end.
The wind blew at the rate OF SO to 8O
miles an hour during the height Of the
storm. Snow fell throughout New York
state. The fall in New York city, the
weather bureau reports, was about 10
inches; Philadelphia, nine inches; Boston,

GREAT LOSS OF SHIPPING.
Blizzard Makes Havoc in Boston
HarbOr and Vicinity.

Boston, Nov. 29.-Tugs returning to
this city at noon yesterday, after tours ol
the harbor, report about 35 vessels of all
sizes ashore or sunk in or near Boston
harbor.
Seven large schooners and two Balti'
more coal barges are completely wrecked
and it is estimated between 25 and 80
lives have been lost. Only one body has
yet been recovered. More than dozen
are reported in the surf at Hull and ef.
forts are being made to recover them.
Daylight yesterday morning revealed
the awful havoc of the storm in Boston
harbor. Not since 1852 have the ele-
ments caused such destruction of prop
erty and loss of life so near the city.
The tugs sent out to explore the har'
Dor found ON every shoal and reef some
ice-covered vessel being dashed to pieces
by the waves. The raging waters thus far
prevent any attempt to recover the bodies
seen floating among the debris and it may
be days before an accurate list Of those

thus far reported follows:
From the schooner Calvin Baker, three
unknown sailors drowned and one frozen
in the rigging.
