Mr.. l.. c. Phillips, of Eden, Randolph

ExSheriff Powell writes that if the

printing Mr.. Allen Daughtry as a Popu-
list, his neighbors will destroy all the
printing presses in the State. He is the
scion of an old line Democrat, who has
represented Sampson in the Legislature
before Populism was born. The same is
true of Mr. J.. S. Matthews. Both these
tried Democrats were defeated by Popu-
lists.

Beaded lace capes are see1, too, mostly
in a mantilla shape, with one or more full
lace ruffies around the lower edge and the
full standing ruff around the neck, high
in the back and narrowing down to the
front. Capes for evening ~curiously enough
! are cut shorter in front and round up to
the throat, being deep in the back, always
with the deep lace ruff1e and ribbon.
The Jackets for early fall are being made
now. The style is for two distinct kinds,
one a three quarter length and the other a
short, tight waist, ending at the top OF the
skirt. All others are variations of these
two. A few of these side lines will have
small positions. OF tho long jackets there
are many which look different, owing to
the trimming. Yet they are cut in the
same way. There is but one dart on each
side in front, and this is carried up to the
shoulder. 1t adds slenderDess to the form.
Some have pockets and some have none.
Some are single and others double breast
ed and some open all the way down in front
over a vest. All basques to jackets are
laid fiat to the fgAre, not sprung, gathered
or plated. Even the s~everest of the tailor
made coats and jackets have very fine high
collars often made quite ornamental.
Among the dainty things in the way Of
summer wraps are capes with a silk foun-
dation completely covered with silk mus
lin ruf1es, with the inevitable ruche and
ribbon bow. Gauze ribbon with a black
ground and two orange stripes quilted is
on to a net foundation. Black silk guipure
lace over pale lilac is the foundation of
another cape.
An elegant gown for seinigrand occa-
sions was a rich porcelain blue Irish pop
lin. The skirt was laid up to the knees in
hollow folds. The waist was short and
round and in surplice style, the fastening
having a couple of folds under the fancy
buttons. Three others were at the top.
At each side, at the neck and on the
shoulders was an of cream
white guipure lace. That over the shout
doris was In form of a sailor collar across
the back. The arrangement of the waist
was especially graceful. The same design
was carried out in tan cashmere.
BY the way, cashmere is taking the
place it should hold in women's affections,
for nothing could be more refined. 1t is
also one of the most economical of goods,
as it can be cleaned and even washed as
often as one wishes

In the days when spectacles were intro
duced the world was not all wise. Glasses
became so fashionable that people did not
wait until necessity compelled them. to
adopt the new custom. Whether their
eyesight was bad or good, those who
would be stylish wore spectacles. l.,
Spain they formed part of the costume OF
every well dressed person. The object OF
the wearer in putting on glasses was to
increase the gravity of his appearance
and to render himself more directly i'm
posing. A young monk who had, through
the a~ssistanceof his family, caused his
order to succeed in an important lawsuit,
felt himself literally rewarded when the
prior, having embraced him warmly. tes-
titled his gratitude by saying: Brother,
put on spectacles." The glasses of spec
tacles were proportional in size, not to
the eyes, but to the rank of the wearer,
those worn by the Spanish mobiles being
as large as ones hand The Marquis OF
Astoria. Viceroy of Naples, after having
had his bust sculptured in marble. par
ticularly enjoined the artist not to forget
his beautiful spectacles.-Youth's Com

Bogus Antiques Made by Convicts.

The Royal British Antiquarian and
Archaeological societies have lodged a pc
tition with Lord Salisbury protesting
against the peculiar form of prison labor
in Egypt since the kbedive's p~enitentiaries
and jails have been under English man
agement. 1t seems that the conviots, of
whom there are l 900 in the Jourah prison
alone, are employed in manufacturing
bogus antiques, for which there is reported
to be a large market, especially in Amer
lea. The petitioners declare that the for
geries are SO clever as to be scarcely distin-
guishable from the real article. As yet
only antiques of relatively small dimen-
sions have been produced, but the prison
authorities express the hope of being able
in course of time to turn out full fiedged
mummies and ~sarcophagi. The scientific
societies in England point out with some
degree of justice that while this form of
prison labor may rave commercial adyan-
tages it practically renders the British
government a party to fraud.
