PEACE STYLE PRoBABLE.


 Waves of excitement and apprehen- sion roll over the people at intervals, and occasionally it seems as if war might break out in a few minutes. But the real situation apparently doesn't change much, though what change there is seems to be in the di- rection of peaceful solution of the difficult problems with which this country is now struggling. One of the latest and most reliable reports is that the President is still firm in his belief that there will be no war, and that not only the matter of the Maine, but the Cuban question can be settled honorably and peacefully by diplom- of as way out of the trouble, and it is evident that the governments of this country and Spain and also the governments of some other countries are aiming to have a war averted. There is good reason to think they will succeed.
 There is nothing definite yet about the report of the court of inquiry, which was expected this week by many who thought they knew something about it. It Is now expected" next week. It will come some week When it does come the President and his ad- visers can be trusted to deal with it as wisely and carefully as they have dealt with the other incidents of this troubled time.

------------------------ FASHION NOTES.
Changes in Tailor Styles.

In last springs tailor-mades the blouse may be said to have "bagged the game" and it is to be set aside this spring. That does not mean that you may not with every confidence wear your blouse tailor, but 1t does mean that you would be foolish to have your new tailor rig made according to such a design. If you are buying ready made, then by all means consider the blouse rig. A very pretty modification of the blouse makes shooting jacket

effect, being open in front to show tight fitting waistcoat and linen. The belt binds the waistcoat as well as the shooting blouse, and that is not really tailor, but only severe critics will be disturbed over that.
 While there is a noticeable decrease in trimmings in tailor -mades, there are trimmed sorts left. One of these ap- pears at the left in to-day's picture. It was of beige and brown striped wooden goods, the skirt trimmed with tabs and buttons. The fitted bodice had a vest of white taffeta trimmed at the neck with a passementerie yoke of gray silk cords. The collar was cut into points and Tapped over under the chin, and the fronts were cut with tabs that buttoned across. The belt in front was white silk. The other gown in this picture was of dark steel gray cloth. It's skirt spred from the knees in a Spanish f1ounce and it's jacket bodice had four lengthwise tuck on each side, both in back and front. A girdle-like belt of gray brocade ended at the sides, the same satin lining the basque.
 The long fitted frock coat with tail reaching to the knees Is not to be pop ular, but it is seen and Is becoming to tall women. The skirts are set on in some cases, in others are in one piece with the upper part. The coat is dou- ble-breasted, fits closely and it cut away to show the linen and sometimes 1f l. ,!.sA coat, but this is thought a little infor- maj. The skirt should be plain, rather full, and longer than the critical tailor girl admits. All but the strictest util- itarian tailor skirts have to be held up if they are to remain tidy.

The days are gittin' longer, an the nights air full O stars; The cattle scent the clover while they're loafn' roun' the bars An purity soon the blossoms will be bendin' ter the breeze, An the lily tilted over by the honey-huntin bees They'er formn' O the furrows whar the seed that's out O sight Is dreaming in the darkness O the sweet dews an the light; The hills are growth greener an smllin' ter the blue, An a violet is peepin' from frosty bank at you. Gittin' time for flshin' an wishin' for day By the rainy rllls O April, or the blossom lanes O May; Purity soon the roses II be reelin' In the breeze, While feller's soul is roamin' with the blossoms an the bees!

Henry Jacobs, of Lincoln, Kansas, has erected curious monument over the grave of his son, who was of 9 rowing disposition. He had stone cut in the shape of an old-fashioned travel ling satchel On the plate in the center on each side is the name "J. S. Jacobs" Just above the name is this inscrip- ton: Here Is Where He Stopped Last" Underneath the name is the date of death and his age The stone is white marble, and the base is a big boulder which the father hauled from his farm and rolled on the grave. When questioned as to why he chose such a unique design tue old man said: "Wall, Jim, he were a sort of rovin' feller, and allowed this design would bout suit him. He never stopped very long before in any one place. But the last time I see him he were at the graveyard, and I jes' concluded that he might stay thar a long while. So I had a sign printed on ther stone sayin' whar he was last seen and whar he ought to be now.'

According to Frank H. Morris, fourth auditor of the treasury, while the number of men killed on the Maine was 253, the government has succeeded in getting in communication with only 127 claimants for indemnity. Less than 10 per cent. of the number had fami- lies dependent upon them, and many had no direct heirs whatever. Out of the 37S men on the ship, sixty-three were foreigners.

Some people know what they want. Two contented Englishmen were dis covered in Cumberland Sound by the steamer Diana, sent out by the Cana dian government to report on the nav igability of Hudson Straits, but each was the only white man in his com munity. A man named Mutch lives at a place he calls Kilkerton. He was sent out by an Aberdeen firm tweny- seven years ago, married an Esquimau wife, and settled down with her people The other, Sheridan by name, has lived among the natives for thirty years at a place he calls Blacklead. Neither man wished to return to civilization. One of them inherited large legacy in England lately, but refuses to go back to take it.

That pestiferous insect the San Jose scale has now extended over thirty States This seems to be an increase of ten States in a year. At present the States where the insects are most nu- Inerous are California, Maryland, Illi- nois, Michigan and New Jersey. In California and New Jersey the scale is widespread, and in the latter State ex- termination has been abandoned. The most actual damage, however, seems to have been done in Maryland. Vir- ginia, Ohio and Georgia have been con- siderably affected, but apparently not so seriously as the other States named.

WRAPPED IN THE FLAG.
Dramatic Burial of the Last Survivor of
sold Ironside' Battles.

Mill Creek, Me-, March 2S-John
Cheney, who claimed to have seen longer
service on the old frigate Constitution
than any other member of the crew, died
at his boarding place in South Orrington
last Sunday, and was buried in the Mill
Creek Cemetery, Tuesday afternoon. He
was 90 years of age, and retained his full
physical vigor until within two days of
his DEATH Though he was veteran of
the 1912 and Of the Mexican Wars, and
though he was made nearly deaf by the
explosion of gun on board the Constitu-
ton in a battle with privateer in the
summer of 1912, his pension was only $12
month. For the past fifty years he has
beep subject to fits of religious insanity,
and during these spells he always gave
away the last cent he had to the church.
This kept him poor and compelled him to
work hard in order to live. When he
could find nothing else to do he made
wooden models OF ''Old Ironsides," and
hsving put in spars and rigging, peddled
them from house to house. Nearly every
we'll TODD family in Eastern Maine now
owns specimens of the old mans handl-
work AS he was very artistic wood
carver, these toys are highly priced by
their owners.
Al hour or two before he died he told
an attendant to go to his sea chest and
bring bundle to him. Inside a lot of
oiled paper, perfumed with camphor and
cologne, was an aged but well preserved
| American flag made OF raw Tx.
"When | am buriet put that about my
coffin" he said, and soon after became

ASPHALT STREET PAVING.
Municipal League Seeks to Procure
Competition In In
dustry,

INDIANAPOLIS. IND. Dec. 1.-The Ma
tional Municipal League closed its sixth
session this afternoon. The following res
olution was adopted:
Whereas. Asphalt street paving is very
generally an important part of municipal
expenditure; and.
Whereas. There lave been numerous
complaints and much litigation in different
cities because of combinations tending to
prevent competition and thereby to largely
enhance the cost of such work:
Resolved, That the executive commit
tee be requested to appoint a special COM
mlttee to procure Information and to re-
port at the next annual conference, wha
II anything, can be done by the league
to romot the interests of the municirali-
ties in the matter of competition in as
phalt street paving"
Mayor Jones. of Toledo, o., said:
Il feel constrained to announce myself
as being unalterably opposed to any grant
of municipal franchises for any purpose
whatever. and l take this position as a
matter of principle. / maintain that the
idea of granting franchises to private in
d~ividuals or corporations to minister to a
city in social necessities is as wrong in
scientific theory as it is mischievous and
destructive of what is best in municipal life
in practice"
Mr.. Edward w. Bemis, of the Kansas
Agricultural college, said the tendency was
toward shorter franchises and all should
be revocable at will.
