H. Johnston and his cabinet met
in the capital last Monday to tram
sact business pertaining to the re-
spective departments of our gov
ernment, but | presume no one on
the outside knows what was done.
1t is hinted there is a likelihood
of an extra session of the legisla-
ture to be held in the near future
to correct some errors pointed out
by Inspector Wright in some of
the acts passed at the last session
of the called legislature.

Mr.. DOCKERY, who was the
ranking Democratic member of the
house committee on appropriation,
in a statement deprecating the ex-
travagant appropriations of the
Fifty-ffth Congress, outside Of the
war appropriations, calls attention
to the fact that the estimated de-
felt of the current fiscal year, will
be $3.50, 900, 900, and that for the
next fiscal year 500, 900, 900,
making it probable that before the
first of January, 1901 the govern
mept will have to choose between
a farther increase in taxation, an
other bond issue and the issue of
Treasury certificates of Indebtedness
to raise money that will have to be
had.

THE following from the Durant
Times will give some idea of the
fertility Of Territory soil, and of
the proportions of the business
done by some of the tillers: Joe
Davis, who lives three miles south
east of here, has marketed at this
place IS bales. He remarked
while in one day this week that he
would market three more bales and
had lost fully Is bales by not being
able to get in the field during bad
weather. Mr.. Davis is a prairie
farmer and his record certainly
speaks well for this portion of the
Territory.

CZAR REED may not WELD the
gayel in the house after that body
gets whack at him next winter.
Republican members of Congress
who remain in Washington are
discussing with considerable free
dom the possibilities of a contest
on the speakership. Until adjourn
ment there was hardly so much as
rumor of opposition to Mr.. Reed g
election. This anti-Reed talk
would be of less Importance if Mr..
Reed himself had not made a
statement respecting the next
speakership shortly before final ad-
jeurnment. He said that he would
not enter into Il contest for re-
election. He defined his position
in such a way as to leave no doubt
of his intentions. If the Republi-
can caucus desired, with practical
unanimity, to renominate him, Mr..
Reed said he would accept re-elec-
ton. This talk may die out and
leave Mr.. Reed without opposition,
or it may easily grow into such ex
preston of opposition that Mr..
Reed will refuse to be candidate.

HINTS ON HOARY AGE.
Telling You How to be Young Though
Old.

In many ways the fashionable wom-
an Is benefactor to her sex. DO
you know why 1t Is that the fashion
able woman looks as young and rosy
at 60 as the questionable woman gen
orally looks at 30? 1t is because she
takes care of herself. The unfashion-
able woman gets her beauty sleep ey-
cry night and never dissipates In the
matter OF balls and little suDpers pre-
pared over the blazer while the rest
OF the world Is asleep. She eats her
three meals day at just the proper
hours. Everything on her table Is
wholesome and intended to keep her
skin rosy and her little body llssome.
She thinks 1t almost immoral to clog
the pores OF the skin with powder and
pomade and she believes in nature alb
solutcly. And just there Is the differ
encc. The fashionable woman-or
the woman OF the world, IL you choose,
for The fashionable woman Is hardly
n broad enough term for the woman
who Is always young at 50-belleves In
art. She knows that nature Is a won
derful restorative, but she has infinite
ly more faith In art and science.
When the wrinkles begin to come the
fashionable woman knows OF pomades
and masseurs. She has found that
the Turkish bath will do more toward
making her eyes lustrous and her skin
clear than all the ten-hour sleep and
whole wheat-bread remedies In the
world She wears corsets-snug ones,
too-but they are corsets that fit the
figure and do not grip 1t in a cast-iron
wise, and she hangs her skirts from the
hips. But she can dance all night and
be as fresh and rosy next day as II
she had never seen the inside Of ball

NOVELTIES AND VAGARlES.

The English fashion of wearing the
hair is the mode of the hour in Paris.
This demands coil low in the nape
of the neck with a few ringlets and a
cluster of flowers. and is becoming
only to women with perfectly shaped
heads and slender necks. In America
fashionable women are wearing the
couture lower than for some time,
The pompadour effect is retained, but
the waves of hair are less pronounced
than formerly, although it is still
puffed prettily about the ears, fore
head and nape. The coil is arranged
to show beneath the crown of the ha,,
The brooch pin is used by many
maids to fasten up the stray locks at
the back OF the head This pin is
usually plain gold affair, not ornate
in design, though an occasional wo-
man is seen whose tresses are he.I by
diamond or ruby studded affair
deliberately carved, The hair, by the
way, is arranged for the street to suit
individual taste, but by night the rule
seems to be steadily in favor of a lofty
coiffure Many smart women carry
all their hair up in Il small, tall knot
forward of the crown. This pushes
light pompadour over the brow. To
the small tall knot Is fastened huge
bow OF black velvet ribbon that is
not wrinkled and through the hair the
knot is passed and crossed by two
long pronged pins; jeweled hat pins
will do This is pretty mode Of
arragning the locks and an easy one
also.
A hint now how to make satin shoes
| last--stripe them across with narrow
ribbon of the same color. This pre-
vents the shoes wearing out at thu
sides, and the ribbon can be renewed
when It begins to wear out at The
sides Ballet girls often resort t
| this plan to make their shoes last
otherwise they would use fresl
pair almost every night. The ribbons
must be narrow, OF course, and mus
match the shoes in every respect
House shoes may have little stras
ornament in front instead of n bow
although a little bow Is more coquet
fish.

the common people-honesty and in
dustry.
The American people didn't long
criticize Lincoln because he was born
poor or because he remained awk-
ward.
1t Is the same with the French peo-
pie and Loubet, and it ia sign full
OF promise for France.
Loubet was born in 1888 on a little
farm at Marsanne, about two miles
from Montelimar. 1t Is the typical
farm of the south of France. 1t has
two buildings forming a right angle
The stables and barns are on the
ground floors, and above them the
living apartments.
The pigs, sheep, cows and hens hud-
die about in the roomy court yard.
The presidents mother, eighty
six years old, still manages the farm.
She has never been to Paris. Her
sons advancement has not altered
her IN any respect. She wears the
garb of the peasant, as her people had
done before her-the homespun gown,
Bingham apron and white cap with
it's tluted edges.
She is plain, simple, clear-headed
old peasant Euther, proud of her son,
but sorry to lie separated from him.
Loubet was educated in the neigh
borho6d, became lawyer and built
up modest Practice at Montelimar-
the little town famous for it's candy.
In 1867 he married Marie Denis, an
ron -monger's daughter. Her father
was tramp Be came from Picardy
and found employment in a nail
smiths shop at Montelimar. When he
died lie left q prosperous business to
his son, who now operates 1t, and a
fortune to his family of 100000 francs.
The presidents wife was brought
up in simple way and we'll trained
in household duties. She is a good
cook, but more partial to the garlic
spiced dishes of the meridional than
to the Paris CONNECTIONS. She is stout
and gray-hared, dresses richly, but
makes no attempt to follow the ia
shlons. She Is courteous and moth
crly.
In 1870 Loubet became mayor of
Montelimar and in 1876 was elected to
the chamber of deputies. Then his
Paris life began. His wife was of
retiring disposition and they made no
display. Later, however, when she
was called to preside over her hus-
bands official household in his re-
spective positions of cabinet minister
md president of the senate she sur
:1.ised every one by her dignity and
tact.
The president has three children,
one of them, a daughter, married to
M. Soubeyran de Saint-Prix, judge
at Marseilles. Nine. Saint-PriX will
assist her mother in her new social
duties at the Elysee.
The president is worth not more
than $4,000 He is short in stature
and has a ROUND, plump figure. He
Is intensely devoted to his family and
derives his chief recreation from
books and music. Among public men
he is regarded as safe but not bril-
liant. His honesty, however, is UNI
questioned and his private life is
above reproach
