LATE FASHIONS IN JEWELRY.
Odd TrinIsets Are the Ones Most
Sought for Now.

There is at present quite craze for
charms wrought in gold, precious stones
and enamels, and every wise jeweler is
busy doing his best TO bring out some
thing completely new. A recent achieve
ment is a perfectly delightful Jack in
the box" exquisitely modelled in gold
and made to shut up and open exactly
like the toys that children favor, half
fearful of their witchery, half inthralled.
AT touch of the spring in the little
gold box the lid jumps up, and from the
inside springs a tiny Jack, ablaze with
colored gems.
Dutch dolls have provided many jew
elers with the means of exhibiting their
workmen's skill. About as long as a
thumb nail, these rather hideous little
golliwogs are iointed and enameled in
types of the nursery. One famous firm
is making speciality of cuff links which
may well be called the farmyard series.
On one side is seen a tiny duck. on the
other bunch of vegetables, such as
lettuce, asparagus or tomatoes. colored
to the life. Trinkets like these may well
bring a smile to the faces of staid individ-
uals who regard all jewelry from the
point of view of half century ago, when
every ornament was a really heavy and
elaborate piece of workmanship and bau-
bles of this kind were simply made of
base metal instead of the exquisite gold
and enamel used now. Then fallals of the
sort hailed from Paris. and no self re-
speeding woman thought of wearing
them-false gewgaws as they were con-
temptuOusly and generally termed

London, Sept. PA st. Petersburg
dispatch says the imperial authorities are
arranging for great purchases of Ameri-
can wheat for distribution among the
sufferers in the district affected by the
bad harvests.
Reports from the district of Kazan,
where the distress is particularly acute,
show an alarming state of affairs. The
cattle are being fed on fodder taken from
the matches OF cottages, and permission
has been given the peasants to gather
fagots for fuel and dried leaves for fod-
der, in the woods
Terrible as the situation now is. the
distress not only shows no signs OF abat-
ing, but will probably be more accentu-
ated in the coming winter, when the
famine will have for its prey a popula-
ton already impoverished and exhausted
by previous years of want and scarcity.

MONTANA.

The Montana state association of Bap-
fists will meet in Butte ON the Doth of
this month for a four days session.
The Philipsburg public schools opened
with an enrolment of $40 pupils
The contract for building the state cap
itol has been let to the Montana Building
company of Butte, who agree to do the
work for $2S9,S9l. The company agrees
to make use of such stone as the COM
mission might designate, and made bid
in lump sum for the entire work, includ-
ing the boiler house and tunnel, the
plumbing and the steam heating, and
without deductions for departures from
the specifications.
Elwood Mead, state engineer of Wy
oming, is in Helena inquiring into irri-
CATION in Montana for the United States
government. He will remain in Helena
for few days and then visit other parts
of the state, where he will seek informa-
ton upon methods of irrigation, the
means taken to secure water rights and
all other data that might be valuable in
work to be issued by the department in
the near future. Mr.. Mead is known
throughout the country in circles inter
ested in the subject of irrigation. His
state was the first to take advantage of
the Carey act and under the system en-
ployed there many thousands of acres
have been reclaimed and now make homes
for settlers.
The democratic, populist and silver re-
publican state conventions met in Ana
conda last week. The sensational feature
was the action of Governor Robert p.
Smith. He was a democrat until 1894.
when he turned populist. He was elected
governor in 1896 by the fusion of the
populists and democrats. He was dele
gate to the present populist state con-
vention. Last week the governor babe
good bye to the populists and visited the
democratic convention, where, being ac-
corded the privilege of the floor, he an
nounced desire to re-enter the demo-
cratic party. He was warmly welcomed.

Washington, Sept. 26.-The officials
here are watching with interest the pro-
gress being made by the military commits
sion in Havana in securing the evacuation
OF the island of Cuba. The commission
has been slow in making reports to the
war department, but from the latest it
appears that the body would like to have
more definite instructions as to proceed
ure.
1t seems that the Spanish side has said
that they could not begin the evacuation
of the island until the first of November
and that it could not be completed before
February Is.
In view of the alarming state of the
Cubans, who are suffering from hunger
and their inability to obtain work. the
president decided that he could not assent
to the consumption of so much time.
Therefore he caused the commission to be
instructed to demand that the evacuation
by the Spaniards begin not later than
October 10 and that it be completed by
December 81 next.
What the result of this demand will
be is not yet known, but it is said the
administration is determined to allow no
dilatory tactics on the part of the Span
ish forces in leaving the island, although
disposed to permit reasonable indulgence.

Is Roosevelt Ineligible?

Albany, Sept. 26.-The supporters of
Governor Black have exposed their hand,
which has been responsible for their great
confidence in their ability to defeat Col
onel Roosevelt for the gubernatoral nomi-
nation and which makes the nomination
of the colonel an impossibility.
Colonel Roosevelt, they say, is "ineli-
gible' to run as a candidate for COVER
nor of this state at this time because pub
lie records show that he is a resident of
Washington city.
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, when seen,
said the story of his not being a resident
of New York state was without founda-
ton. Colonel Roosevelt did not seem very
much worried about the matter.

GENIUSES AS MISERS.

Balzac is his novel, Eugene Grandet:"
the hero, old Grandet. is a miser whose
financial genius amounts to the sublime
and which Balzac contrives and sue
ceeds in making almost picturesque.
Among the most distinguished misers
was Daniel Dancer. Upon the death OF
his father, Daniel Dancer came into the
estate, which yielded a good income
One Of his sisters lived with him and
lmbibed the misery teachings Dancer
was remarkable for the style of his gar
ments; his coat was made of pieces OF
every hue and texture, collected from
the streets and ash heaps. His gar
ments were held together by twist of
hay. He and his sister lived happily in
howell, the paneless sashes of which
were darkened with boards, rags and
papers. Soap and towels being expen-
sive, Mr.. Dancer occasionally washed
In. a pond and dried himself with sand.
Three pounds of coarse beef and four
teen dumplings formed their menu for
years, except upon one occasion, when
Providence changed the course of these
viands.

OF bones and other delicate offal found
