COTTON DRESSES.
A Good supply of Them should He
Made Up Early in the
season.

Make a good supply of plain cotton
dresses and aprons early in the season,
before it is time to prepare more elab-
crate gowns. Skirts and all summer
underwear should be certainly out of
the way before May. There is nothing
gained and a great deal lost in putting
off this plain sewing until late. II this
work is done early in the spring II will
not be half so hard to do as it is il II
Is left until the warm days of late
spring or early summer. 1t saves time,
when several persons are working to-
gether, to adopt the method of shops
and each one take one part of the work.
The cutter should cut, the hemmer hem,
and the stitcher use the machine. 1t
saves time, even when one person is
working, 10 cut out u number of gar
ments of the same kind at once and do
first all the work Of one kind on them;
then all the work of another, until
the work on ull is done. There is always
time lost in changing work-in get
ting ones hand In again" A woman
who is sewing every day soon finds that
her hands lose their cunning il she
drops her work for any length OF time
and II takes some time before she car
do 1t us well MS before. The moral
therefore, is play when you play, rcst
when the rest timo comes, but work
steadily at any task you have to dc
when you do work, il you would dc
your work with the least labor It Il
the dropping Of work and picking IL III
again that wears on the strength NOR
than steady labor.-N, Y, Tribune.

Carry Them.

WASHINGTON, July B. -Reinforcs-
ments are to be hurried to Gen. Shafter
as rapidly as steamships can carry
them, notwithst nding the fact that
additional troops are not now so badl 7
needed as was indicated by the devel-
opments OF Friday and Saturday. The
dispatches received by the war depart-
ment from Gen. Shafter show a conf.
denee in his present ability to control
the situation. The position he occu-
pns makes 1t impossible either for tho
Spanish forces to evacuate the city or
for Gen. Pando's troops to reinforce
them.
The auxiliary cruiser st. Paul is now
at New York taking on a cargo Of am.
munition for Admiral SIMPSONS fleet
Owing TO the necessity of her early
departure It was not originally in
tended to send the troops by her, but
yesterday afternoon it was decid
ed she should take one regi
ment. In accordance with that de
termination, orders were ISSUED
last evening for the Eighth Ohio in
fantry, Col Charles v. Hurd anC
Lieut. Col Charles Dick, the regimen
known as "The Presidents Own" be
cause it comes from the immediat,
vicinity of President McKinley's hom'
city of Canton, to proceed to New
York and embark ON the st. Paul TO
Santiago. The st. Paul will leav
New York late Wednesday afternoon
and will make flying trip to Cuba.

WASHINGTON, July 5.-From the heat

Gen. Shafter yesterday sent the fol-

FOR RELIGIOUS FREEDOM.
American Foreign Missions Board Wants
IL Guaranteed In All Spanish Colonies
Aid OF the Government Asked.


NEW YORK, July 5.-The board Of
commissioners for foreign missions,
whose operations have been carried on
in the islands of the Pacific for nearly
half century, has issued the follow
ing concerning the alleged attitude on
the question of the status of some Of
these islands which will result from
the war with Spain:
II ought TO be understood that the American
board does not meddle In political matters and
that at the present time 1t takes no part in dis
cussions relating to the territorial acquisitions
by the United States in any part OF the world
When our missionaries in foreign land
are denied the rights which other Ameri-
cans enjoy the intervention OF our govern
ment Is sometimes sought, but on princi-
pie our board avoids seeking the aid Of the
state in the prosecution OF missionary
work In view OF the forcible Intervention Of
Spain In the Caroline islands ten years ago,
putting stop to Christian erorts of our mis-
sionaries, who were there years before the
Spaniards arrived. we deem 1t right to ask
whenever the status Of these islands Is de-
| termined. ample guarantees shall be required
OF whatever power shall hold sovereignty tina
perfect religious liberation shall be enjoyed b!
| the islanders As TO what nation shall holi
| that sovereignty we have nothing to say.
