1t Has supplanted the Blazer.

To great extent the Eton jacket
has usurped this season the place for
merly held by the "blazer," and in its
up-to-date shaping, as presented in
the large engraving, is an extremely
smart and becoming garment.
A relief from the rather severe tailor
finish is shown in this jacket of cadet
blue serge (matching the skirt, that
is decorated with rows of narrow black
satin ribbon, the revers and collar
faced with black satin. The stylish
walking hat of cadet-blue has black
satin, straw brim, rows of ribbon en-
circling the crown with black and
blue curling coque feathers at the left
side. The fronts, which are shaped
without darts, are reversed at the top
in pointed lapels, that meet the rolling
collar in notches. The back may be
made with or without centre seam,
as preferred, and wide under-arm
cores, with shoulder seams, complete
the stylish adjustment.

style having again taken the place of
the now passe bow of ribbon. The
two-seamed sleeves, which only have
fulness at the top, are disposed over
fitted Innings, stylish double epaulettes
standing out fashionably at the top.
Triple rows of the frilled ribbon
form evenly spaced bands above the
elbow to correspond to the waist trim
ming, and the wrists are finished to
match the epaulettes and simulated
yoke.
For separate waists of silk or fine
wooden, as we'll as cotton fabrics, this
model will be found excellent, it be-
ing ample in construction and suited
to the applied decorations that abound
in an almost endless variety of designs.
Tucking can be used in place of the
ribbon, as here shown, if the tucks are
made i'll groups in the material before
the pattern is laid on.
To make this waist for woman oil
medium size one and three-quarters
yards of material forty-four inches
wide will be required.

Her rAnti-Rheunatic Potato Outlived Her
Recently woman residing in the
country near Parkersburg, W. Va,
died and was buried During her
lifetime she suffered with rheumatism
and among the various other cures
recommended she carried potato in
her pocket. For fourteen years she
carried the same potato, until it had
grown black and shrivelled with age,
and had become as light as cork.
After the funeral the clothing of the
departed one was hung out to air.
During the hanging out" it rained.
This necessitated a further drying and
airing, but when the dress was taken
down to put away it was discovered
that the potato was still in the poke I
of the dress, and during the airing
process had put forth several green
sprouts. The circumstance was re-
lated by near relative of the lady,
who vouches for it's truthfulness. =.

COMMENT At LONDON
Both Armies Receive Praise For
Their ValOr.
SPIRIT OF BALAKLAVA
SHOWN BY THE ROUGH RIDERS
AT SAN JUAN.
Story of the Battle Sends Thrill of
Pride Throughout the Anglo-Sax-
on World-suggested That Spain
Might Now Sue For Peace On Hon
orable Terms.

London, July 4.-The Daily Graphic,
in its editorial, observes: 1.-The signal
gallantry and devotion displayed by
both Spaniards and Americans sends a
thrill of pride throughout the Anglo
Saxon world The story of the splendid
manner in which the rough riders car

The Daily Graphic says, however,
that 1.-THE blunder lies deeper than any
mere temporary characterization" add
ing that the Americans cast their net
too widely as it might have been bet
ter to have left Santiago and Manila
alone. and to have concentrated their
efforts upon Havana"
The Times this morning, discussing
the fighting at Ell Caney, says: Both
sides have shown courage Of a very
high order, and it is hard to say
whether the splendid dash and bravery
of the American advance in the teeth
of CALLING fire or the stubborn tenac-
ity OF the Spanish defense is the more
admirable.

Second Days Battle Brought Fresh Victories to
Skaters Army.
SKATER BELIEVES SURRENDER
WILL NOT BE MUCH LONGER DELAYED
List of the Killed and WOundedCaptan Morrison Among
the Dead-Lieutenant Colonel LiScum Wounded.

Copyright, 1885, by the Associated Press.)
Siboney, Cuba, Saturday, July 2,
pm, by the Associated Press Dis
patch Boat Dauntless (via Port An
tonic and Kingston, Sunday, July 3,
$50 pm.)-The fighting on the right
of our line this afternoon developed
unexpected and for some hours almost
as severe firing as yesterday (F'ridaO,
when General Lawton was assaulting
Ell Caney.
The Spanish made an attack in force
on our position, pouring in volley after
volley in quick succession and with
remarkable regularity. Our return
fire was certainly effective and con-
tinued strong after the Spanish volleys
had become rarer and less heavy.
Meanwhile the batteries on Crimes
hill kept booming away at the middle
of the enemy's line, materially aiding
the thanking movement. The Smelling
from the Spanish fleet was less active
and apparently gave our left but lit
tie concern.
LAYTON IN THE CITY.
At this hour. a report has Just
reached here that General Lawton,
aided by fresher regiments sent him
early in the afternoon, has turned the
enemy's left and has troops already in
the city, where almost a hand-to-hand
encounter is going on in the streets.
The situation when the Associated
Press correspondent left the front, as
shown in an earlier dispatch, was such
that the capture of the city tonight
Saturday would not be surprising, al
though General Shafter himself, when
the correspondent left him three hours
ago, did not expect it.
General Shafter, however, sent word
this afternoon to General Callxto Car
cia that the surrender of the city
would not be long delayed.
AMERICAN LOSSES.
A conservative estimate by army
men-not officials that our casual
ties during yesterdays fighting were
nearly if not quite thousand, about
IL ner cent of which were deaths.
Today's casualties on the American
side were much lower, because our
troops had been well iDtrenched the
night before.
The following is the latest list of the
casualties in the battle before Santi-
ago, so far as obtainable:
KILLED.

teenth infantry.

pany E, Sixth infantry.

ciate the splendid military qualities of
their adverSarieS.
1T is a pity that enemies who have
shown themselves such worthy foe
men in the field cannot see their way
to save bloodshed by coming immedi-
ately to an arrangement on a peaceful
basis.
1.-The Spaniards have indicated their
honor, and if they were wise they
would now prove their common sense
by Offering terms to their opponents,
terms which, if they were reasonable,
would almost certainly be discussed in
a generous spirit
The editorials in the Daily Graphic
and Times fairly represent the opinions
of the London newspapers. There is
no word of blame, but rather unstinted
admiration for General Skaters brav-
cry; yet America finds Santiago a
tougher task than she anticipated.
Spain, it is suggested, might now sue
for peace on honorable terms, but it is
not thought she is likely to do so.
The Standard says: ION the whole,
while we cannot express too highly our
family pride in the gallant bearing of
the American troops, it appears to us
that the prospect before the United
States is one sufficiently onerouS to
make this a moment when a wise ap-
proach on the part of Spain toward
peace on reasonable terms ought<to be
received with much alacrity by Presi-
dent Mckinley. Why wait till suffer-
ing has hardened the hearts of the
Americans and strengthened the ma
tons resolve?'
The Daily News remarks: 1.-THE pres
ent Fourth of July will be memorable.
Even this seems to be tending to a
fulfillment of the remarkable prophecy
Captain Mahan made in 1890 that when
the United States once began to busy
itself with the affairs of the world, it
would stretch out it's hands to Great
Britain"

Glorious Fourth Of July News Comes From Santiago
dc Cuba.
ALL THE SPANISH SHIPS EXCEPT ONE
WERE RUN UPON THE BEACH AND BURNED
Shafter Demands the Immediate Surrender of the City and
Believes the Enemy Will Capitulate.

! ter the news had been officially an
nouncd, that the victory materially
modified the seriousness of the situa-
ton. The destruction Of the fleet,
which was not confirmed until a few
minutes before the ness was given TO
the public, removed by far the most
serious obstruction toward the capture
of Santiago by the land forces.
During the almost continuous con-
flict of Friday and Saturday reports
show that the Spanish fleet did awful
execution by Smelling the American
troops. 1t is regarded as unlikely that,
with the fleet lying in the bay, General
/ Skaters forces would have been able
TO occupy Santiago.
CLEAR FIELD FOR SKATER.
After the reduction and capture of
the outer defenses of the city by Cen
eral Shafter. it became necessary that
Admiral Cervera's fleet be eliminate
from the equation. Its elimination was
executed by Admiral Sampson, thus
leaving the way open for the continued
advance Of Skaters troops upon the
city
Details of the destruction of Cerve-
ra's fleet have not been received at this
writing by either the war or navy de-
partments. Whether SIMPSONS ships
entered the harbor ana there attacked
and annihilated the Spanish squadron,
or whether Cervera made a desperate
dash past the sunken Merri,pac to the
ocean beyond. in the hope that he
might be able TO save at least a part
of his fleet, has not been officially re-
ported.
Adjutant General Corbfn voiced the
feelings of every one Of the officials
when he said: Il don't care how the
fleet was destroyed It was destroyed.
That is enough for me. It is great
Jews for the Fourth of July
The fleet of Admiral Cervera was one
of the finest Spain possessed. Four of
the vessels, the Almirante Oquendo the
Maria Theresa, the Vizcaya and the
Cristobol Colon, were modern armored
cruisers of the first class. Of the re-
naming vessels of the fleet the F'uror
and Terror were torpedo boat destroy
ers. and the Reina Mercedes was an old
vessel that was sunk a short time ago
by shell from Admiral Sampso.'s
feet The Terror was not with the
feet at Santiago, but is supposed to
be at San Juan, Porto Rico, undergo
ing repairs made necessary by an en-
counter with the ST. Paul a few days
go
In addition to the above mentioned
vessels, there were two torpedo boats
and collier in the Spanish fleet origi-
nally. Whether the collier was at San
tiago or not. is not known.
