Without doubt, says the Woman's
Home Companion, we are started on the
road to tight-itting bodices once more,
and the autumn will see street gowns
made in this style, which is necessarily
the proper accompaniment for the
sheath-rfke skirt that now has a hold on
woman's fancy. Of course they will be
trimmed, but the trimmings will be fiat
and more severe than have been seen for
some seasons past. Many of the new
spring street costumes are now parading
this style, which, after all, is more suit
able for street and shopping wear.

lie Writes FcelingIy to the
Widow of One OF His Men.

Greensburg, Dec. 2.-The fol-
lowing is a letter received from
Admiral Dewey by Mrs. Moss, of
Mt.Pleasant,whos husband j esse
Moss, was killed in the battle of
Malate, July 31st.
Olympia, Flasgship, Manila, Oct.
23, 1895.
My Dear Mrs. Moss: wish to
express to you my deepest sym
pathy. 1t must lessen your sor-
row somewhat to know that your
young husband fell fighting
bravely for his conntry,th the noblest
death man can know. From
the Olympia | watched the fight
that fearful night and wondered
how many American homes would
be saddened by the martyrdom
suffered by our brave men, and
my sympathy went out to each
and every one of them.
Your loss has been sadder than
the others.and | am unable to eX-
press the sorrow | feel for YOU.
Tears came to my eyes as | re ad
the sad story of the father who
never saw his child and then the
loss Of all that was left to the
brave mother. 1t is hard some
times for us to believe. but our
heavenly Father. in his infinite
goodness, always does things for
the best, and some day father,
mother and daughter will be
joined, never to be parted.
With my tenderest sympathy
believe,
Your sincere friend,
GEORGE DEWEY.
The daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Moss was named for Admiral
Dewey.

since they were surveyed and who now occupation of the same. This clacs of settlers c2n be reached in but one way. Some one must first apply to the board of supervisors for 8. lease of the land that they occupy upon a blank to be furnished by the board of supe-- visors. The board of supervisors must then notify the occupant that in order hat he may keep possession of such school land he must pay the leasing value and take a lease of such land or the board of supervisors will proceed to appraise the improvements thereon. If he refuses to pay for a lease, the board must then appcint ap- praisers and appraise the improve ments, as provided for in the sixth secion of this act
 ''The parties occupying the land still have the right under this fit enth section, af,er such appraisement, to pay for the appraisement and the rent al price established by the board of supervisors upon said lsnd and still
 remain in the occupancy of the same. If no one offers to lease school land so occupied, there is no method laid down in this law by which the occu- pants can be removed. The parties
 who offer to lease school land oceu-
 pied must not only pay the rental es- i tablished by the board of supervisors, but must pay for Ghe improvements,
 the price fixed by the appraisers ap- l pointed by said board

 under act 69 can hold the same by virtue of this law until the land is
 leased 70 somebody else, appraisemenIt'
 de of the improvements on the land
 and the amount of such appraisement paid. When all this has been ac-
 complished and the occupant still rel i fuses to vacate, it becomes the duty

SCHOOL LAND LEASES.
An Opinion on the Subject by Attor-
 ney-General Frazier.

MT. A. P. Snowman, territorial su- perintendent of public in -truction, has encountered refusals on the part Of some persons occupying school lands, to take out leases as the law d r, cts. He applied to Attorney General Fra zier for an opinion. The attorn y general yesterday transmitted com mun:cation to Mir. lShlawmam con- laining the following clea- expre-s cn of his views:
 'I beg leave to say that s ctI0p 1 of act No. 69 of the Ninateen legis lative assembly provides that actual and bona fide settlers and occupants who have placed improvements on school and university lands shall have the preferred night to lease the lan7.s whereon such settlement has been made, and provides further that where settlers have resided or occupied or cultivated land reserved by this terri tory for school or university purposes prior to the extension of the surveys of the United States oyer said lands, or who hold the same or p1SseSS Oil thereof by purchase from the original settlers or their assigns, said original settlers having resided on said lands or cultivated them prior 10 the sur vey of the United States, they shall be permitted to continue to hold said lands without rent, etc. So that ce-- tain persons can occupy school lands without paying anything, as desig- matted in the above. There may be such parties occupying school lands in the territory who settled on such land before the survey of the United Sta. es government.
 Your inquiry, I apprehend, is with reference to a class of occupants of school lands who settled upon the same

 Washington, Feb. 4.-This was pri- vate bill day in the house, but on account of a systematic filibuster ng the private calendar contai ing the bills reported by the committee on claims was not reached, the whole day being consumed in passing eighteen of twenty -four private pension bills favorably acted upon by the house at the session last Friday night. During the consideration of one of the bills an interesting discussion of tie ap- preaching sale of the Kansas Pacific railroad, set for February r, was pre- cipi lated by MT. FlemingG denocra, of Georgia, who, with his denoc- atic colleagues, desired legislation to re- quire the president to bid the full amount, debt, principal and interest.
 MT. Powers, chairman of the Pacific railroad commission, contended that the real purpose of the oppcs tion was to compel the government, to take the l road and operate it.
