4 oRANGN.

Before the war broke out Captain
John d. Hart was mixed UP with a
fllibustering expedition to Cuba, and he
was sentenced to two years imprison-
ment for not obeying the neutrality
laws Of the United States. When the
war broke out and the United States
began to make ready to send an expe-
dillon to Cuba 1t seemed rather incon-
gruous to many that Captain Hart
should have to stay In prison, and an
appeal to the President to pardon him
was made. Yesterday he was pardon
ed. The attorney general doesn't think
he ought to be pardoned because this
country is now doing on large scale
what Hart did on a small scale, but he
does think it has been made manifest
by this time that the neutrality laws
of the United States will be vigorously
and severely enforced by the govern
ment, and that the punishment already
undergone by Captain Hart is adequate
under the circumstances to serve as a
warning and an example, and that no
harm can come to the administration
of justice by his release.
This is a neat way Of putting 1t. The
general opinion will be that Hart has
been adequately punished, and that the
United States expedition to Cuba is the
right thing.

hours of savage and continuous fight
| ing, All faint hearts had gone to the
| rear. 1t is safe to say that there was
! not Prussian on the west ridge OF
Chium that day who did not wish to be
there, Even under these conditions the
| charge came very close to success,
though all Europe was shouting that
cavalry was useless against breech-
loading fire.
The French got their chassepots in
| 1868 and 1859. No German officer be-
lieved that his troops would be of any
good against them. Yet at Vionville
| the first line of the German cavalry
halted under heavy fire on the plateau,
| took intervals by passaging, went OIL
the plateau at walk and wheeled up
to front again as steadily as IL on dress
parade. This, too, was magnificent and
it was war, 1t was done to encourage
the young troops, cost only seventy
men and horses, though the chassepots
We're barking in thousands, and 1T was
worth what it cost. Again at Vionville
Bredow's six squadrons went over two
lines Of "unshaken" infantry as If they
We're paper. In another charge the
troopers went over the French cannon,
losing only fifty men. They came SO
fast that the artillerymen found it i'm
possible to depress their pieces with
sufficient rapidity and accuracy. In
this battle thirty-six squadrons OF
German horse proved that the French
line OF foot lacked the strength Of cob
webs, yet this same French infantry
was so good that two days later it took
an entire division of the German foot
men three hours to go through them, at
a cost of four thousand lives, or 80 per
cent. of the attacking force.
There will never be any finer OF
steadier or more ''unshaken" infantry
than these French. They were privates
and non commissioned officers who, te
quote Won Moltke, Sought to redeem
with their lifeblood the errors fol
which they were in no wise RESPONSE
BILE" The Franco-Prussian war was
thick with similar instances, which are
carefully eschewed in the writings OF
anti-cavalry doctrines.
In the old days troops were safe wher
held in reserve five hundred yards back
Of the fighting line. Now for 1850 yards
behind this line the ground Is torn with
| bullets. Consequently troops are held
three thousand yards back, and ever
at this distance there will be occasional
casualties. To take part in an en-
gagement the reserve force must be
moved entirely through this wide and
| dangerous zone. Infantry cannot do il
| in less than twenty-five minutes, and
another ten minutes will be used in get
| ting them into line. Cavalry can cover
the distance in six minutes. The rapid
| ity with which their range alters makes
| them a difficult target, and the moral
effect of their laundering and swift
advance is great. 1t is estimated that
| the cavalry loss in a charge should not
exceed 'one-third of the infantry loss
American military men of the more ad-
vanced kind expect service of the high
est value in heavy engagements from
the splendidly composed and equipped
volunteer cavalry that has gone to the
| front OF their worth in scouting, re-
connoisance and as media Of cummuni-
cation there can be no question.--Chica.

FASHION NOTES.
New In the Ba ck,

The empire gown is appearing again
for house wear. In some of its forms
it shows little change from the time
it was last in general use, but in
models designed for folk with fat
purses there is one modification. This
Is slight, but nevertheless marks the
new from the old, and as it is within
the powers of the home dressmaSer it
is described and pictured here. The
change is in the vatican pleat, which
formerly, whether held in by the belt
or not, was fiat. Now it is, as SHOWN
here much like the godet pleat, though

its bearing ON the Philippines question.

If there is any doubt in the readers
mind as to the standing of this design,
knowledge of the materials in which
it was found should set them at rest.
1t was Of white silk, front and sides,
pleated and attached to small yoke.
A very rich jacket CT lace embroidered
with gold appeared at either side of the
pleat, as well as In front, and from
this bolero-like jacket fell q wide lace

edging topped the sleeves, which were

spangled white chiffon. All this fin

sive stuffs by making sure that the
pleat is of the new sort.
The best corset is finished with soft
plush at the upper and lower edges
that there may be no corset line be-
trayed through the gown. A piece of
silk plush also draws over the fast
enings in front, and the strings at the
| back close down snugly with snap fast
eners. This makes impossible any i'm
press through the gown of lacings or
the knot by which they are secured,
and also prevents the knobs of fasten-
ings in front from pushing under the
dress. The plush used is a deep mesh
variety of elastic weave. 1t makes no
difference in the size Of the corset, and
the pieces covering front and back are
so carefully shaped that they fiet per-
fectly to the curve of the figure. The
bust of the corset Is either not stiffened
or has the softest crossed bones, and
the top is always drawn snug by a
draw ribbon. F'LORETTE.

Following up the experiments made
by other scientists in this field of in
CURRY, DR.. Baraduc, of Paris, has in
vented an instrument, termed bio
meter, to demonstrate some Of his re-
markable conclusions. Thus, as he
holds, on touching this instrument the
hand indicates the vital forces, the
movement of the hand of the biometer
corresponding to the state of mind of
the person, so that, attracted by one
in a happy mood, the reverse takes
place in the case of a person in grief,
this, even, is claimed-namely, the
photographing of the human vital
force of will a person seated in COM
pletely dark room, in front of a photo
graphic camera, had succeeded In pro-
ducing a clear impression on a photo
graphic plate. Moreover, by placing
such plates on a human corpse, in a
similarly darkened room, an impression
was received from the vital forces
three hours after death. Such phe-
nomena indicate, he believes, that there
exists in a living man a vapor of life,
which is the very quintessence of move
ment, the cause of which is as yet not
determined.

It Is said there has been great de-
cline in criminal activities at New
York since the war broke out. The
police courts report about the quietest
time they ever experienced. Not since
1S71 las the district attorneys Office
been so free from criminal cases. The
heads Of the police department say
that crime has declined to marked
degree since war was declared. Mean
time enlistments have not proceeded to
the point of drawing off to the war any
Of the criminal class. To the intense
interest of all classes in the progress
of the conflict, diverting even the GRIM
inal mind for the moment, is attributed
this abatement in criminal activity.

plenty in the Philippines. In a recent
letter to Ambassador Hay he says: /

Alaska Treadwell mines excepted,

hundred yards of the anchorage of sea-
going vessels. So far the fringe only
OF the (Luzon) auriferous formation has

famous physician.

afflicted with the rheumatism for three
years, and had taken as she had informed
me, more than one hundred dollars worth
of medicine to obtain relief, vet without
any beneficial result. l advised her to try
a bottle of DR.. Ayers Sarsaparilla and told
her that If it failed to do her good, would
refund the money. A short time after
ward, learned that IL had cured her, and
a neighbor OF hers similarly afflicted was
also entirely relieved of his complaint by
its use. This is the universal result of the
administration Of your Sarsaparilla. 1t
is without exception, the best blood puri-
fer with which am acquainted"
There is no other similar medicine can
show a similar record. Others have imi-
tated the remedy. They can't initiate the

friendship of the physician and the favor
of the family, because it cures. 1t fuihlis
all promises made for it. 1t has healed
thousands of people of the most malignant
diseases that can mutilate mankind.

whether his bride was 20 years older
or Younger than her certified age was
matter of absolute indifference to
him. All he had to say was that he re-

the woman his name; that Immediately

that since then he knew nothing more

TO Replace Natural skin.

We have recently read with consid-
cradle interest the reports of process
which has been patented by German
scientist by which tissue is made that
will take the place of the natural skin
and be absorbed as the injury heals
He takes the muscular portion of the
intestines of animals and removes the
inner and outer layers of membrane
The middle portion is then permitted
to remain for a suitable time in a solu
ton of pepsin, when the tibers are
found to be scmidigested. The sub
stance is then treated with gallo acid
and tannin. 1t is stated that large sur.
faces from which the skin has been re-
moved by disease or accident may be
healed in short time by means of this
tissue. 1t is prepared and laid upon
the raw surface, which has previously
been sterilized, and is very lightly ban
daged into its place. The union of the
tissue and the surface takes place in
a little while. and the tissue forms q
coating that answers the purpose OF
the skin to a degree better than any
known substance, and is likely, when
still further perfected, to entirely re-
move the necessity for skin grating

COOPERATIVE LIVING.
Nine kansas Families Form ~ Club
on "a Plan That Furnishes "a
Meal at Small Cost.

Nine of the most staid and respect
able families in Burton, Kan, have
thrown away their stove lids and
packed their dishes on the back kitchen
stoves. Whether they have imbibed
somewhat of the restless something
new spirit of their maternal common
wealth or not, they have shocked the
ordinary ideas of economic propriety,
and have formed cooperative living
association, wherein the food question
is settled upon cooperative basis.
Burton is small village, without
any immediate prospect of growing
larger. Located in the midst of a fair
farming community, it has no oppor-
tunity for importing choice land prod
ucts, nor, indeed, enough means topro-
cure a city variety. The size of the
town does not warrant the location of
a bakery, and all the wheat stuff must
be bought from the neighbOring cities.
As a consequence of the limited popula-
ton, there is a very small supply of
hired help, even smaller than the linn
tied demand. The heavy burdens of
the household fall upon the housewife
alone, and very little social intercourse
can be enjoyed. In such a condition of
affairs, the Cooperative Living associa-
ton was organized for the economic
ard social benefit of its membership.
In order to insure a reliable, orthodox
reputation, the association has enrolled
among its members bankers, mcr-
chants, druggists and a representative
preceptor and dominic.
The practical advantages of the club
may be noted as follows: First the
saving of from IS to 25 hours of
Kitchen worry" per week.
Second, the providing of well-cooked
and welI-served meals, ranging in cost
from ~ to cents per meal.
1t may be well to note that low rents
(eight dollars per month for an eight
room house, and the comparatively low
wages paid to the cook (S25 per month,
with use of house, and with board for
herself and family of three children)
may not be duplicated in larger towns.
A purchasing committee of three
at wholesale rates, meat by the quarter
and side, and all provisions in CORE
sDondingly large quantities. Another
member acts as treasurer, and all bills
are paid promptly every Monday morn
ing for the week ending the Saturday
previous.
The real disadvantages, and those
likely to be met, may be specified-a
careless cook, high rents, unsuitable
building, distance of home from club
house and the monotony of living away
from the home board.
To sum up, for eight cents per meal,
the heat and worry of the kitchen are
avoided; hired help is largely dispensed
with; greater variety is provided with
a smaller outlay of labor and money,
and apart from the economic value of
a months living being reduced to $7.20,
there is a social feature that makes
meal time feast of fellowship, as well
as an alleviator to the pangs of hunger.
