Dresses of the more tasteful sorts for
girls of school age reflect recent chang

the misses will seem overdressed. In
case of the two pretty dresses this pic

The most magnificent carriage in the
Mice battle Of flowers was in the form
of Russian sleigh, with the servants in
Russian costume. The whole equipage
was covered with pink and white camel
lias. In front of the sleigh was the
head of large polar bear and over
head hung huge eagle perched on a
snowy branch. Behind walked servants
carrying silver axes. This sight carried
pne's mind back to the old stories of
Eleighs driving, pursued by wolves, over
the snowy plains Of Russia, the ominous
eagle Of destiny lowering overhead.
Another competitor who favored the
weird style of decoration was one whose
carriage displayed a serpent made of
pansies, with jaws wide open and red
fangs flashing in the sunlight. This
ferocious reptile was coiled round tree
and its head stretched forward as if to
strike.

THE CITY OF TYPHOID FEVER.

| Philadelphia is the City of Homes.
| the City of Brotherly Love, etc, etc,
and it is fast acquiring the reputation
| of being the City of Typhoid Fever
Last week there were 443 cases there
and 40 deaths, an increase over the pre-
vious week of 80 cases and II deaths.
we'll are becoming alarmed and they
| have reason for their fear. They know
| that their water supply is contami-
mated and they see nothing done to
protect them. The Ledger thus speaks
of the situation: There is no reason to
expect an abatement of the disease as
long as the present conditions exist.
and for the conditions councils are
wholly to blame On them must fall
the responsibility for the epidemic, be-
cause typhoid is a preventable disease
and the means for prevention have been
plainly pointed out. Some of the mem
bers who seek to excuse their failure
to take action which will purify the
water supply, and so rid the city of the
scourge which now is on it, attempt to
shirk responsibility by declaring that
there are no more deaths now Oh the
average from typhoid than have pre-
vailed for many years, notwithstanding
the great increase Of population. That
is, no doubt, true; but such claim is
begging the real issue, for the records
show large increase in the number of
cases annually, large in proportion to
the growth of the population. That
there is not proportionate increase
in deaths is due to increased skill of
physicians in treating the disease. not
it's lessened area
New York isn't what it might he in a
sanitary way, but though it has nearly
five times as many inhabitants as Phila-
delphia it has not one-f1fth the number
of typhoid cases.

The Peter Schoenhoefer Brewing COM
pany of Chicago, which was reorgan-
lied as an English corporation, is tax
ed by the British Court of Appeals;
and if the House of Lords sustain the
courts decision the company will have
to pay from $4,000 to $4,000 a year.
This decision will, it is thought, result
IN the changing of the organizations

panies, the stock of which is owned
largely in England, and which have
been organized under British laws, to
their former condition, that of American
corporations.

Germany is learning something. Con-
sui Pitcairn sends from Hamburg to
the State department a fresh contribu-
ton to the literature of the San Jose
scale discussion. The Hamburg Cham
Der of Commerce, discussing the ques-
tion in an apparently impartial vein,
argues for the repeal of the vexatious
and annoying features of the fruit in
spection laws, on the ground that they
cause more loss and inconvenience to
German merchants and consumers than
are warranted by the real danger in
yolved The point is made that there
is very small danger Of German or
chards being infected by American
fresh or dried fruit, which is brought
iii for consumption, and is not likely
to come in contact in any way with
the German trees. Similar ground is
taken against the exclusion Of Ameri-
can hog products. The report frankly
states that no case of trichinae poison
ing has ever been traced to American
pork, and that the danger of such poi
soning from sailed or canned meats is
absolutely nil.

II mey inssued upon pressing the in'
yestigatlon too closely, some facts
would be developed that wonld not be
agreeable to them. The charge was
made that Schley had voluntarily LETT
Santiago after reNchlng tho v'clnlty
OF that port and after Il
entered the harbor -
charge that when the 20
had sailed out throupN ~
mouth OF the channel Ad" ,,hea
Commodore) schley had made 90
verso movement with the f;coklyn
and gone In q direction opposite TO
that taken by the Spanish squadron
instead Of boldly attacking the enemy
from the beginning. II was asserted
THAT these facts were among those
which the archives would reveal,
Tho friends OF Admiral Schley de-
clared they had nothing TO fear from
having all the facts known. Explain
ing his start 10 leave Santiago and
his refusal 10 obey department. orders
before SIMPSONS arrival, they said
that II was because he had been una
BILE to coal at sea. When they were
asked how II happened that they had
been able to coal thirty-six hours aft
erwards, they replied that this was
due TO the fact that storm had given
place TO calm.
Senators Lindsay and Pepllgrew
who were not standing for either
Sampson or Schley, made the point
that these developments had merely
emphasized the reasons why the sen
ate should be put into possession ol
all the facts before voting.
~ ann not the champion OF either o'
these officers" said Mr., Pettlgrew
"and II Schley ran away from the
enemy or showed a disposition to dc
so ! want TO know It,"
After the decision TO send for the
records was arrived at, there was q
general understanding that the whole
matter should be postponed long
enough to permit action by botl
houses upon the naval commlttee's
bill, providing that these promotions
Shall not interfere with the promo
Itlon of officers otherwise entitled tC
promotion"
The subsequent efforts OF the SENATE
In open session 10 pass this bill was
the result OF the agreement.
During the debate the fact wa'
brought out that Captain Higglnson
OF the Massachusetts,, had already
been promoted to fiji Mr.. Schley'i
place as commodore, and the criti
cism made that this promotion wa'
irregular, but Senator Hoar defended
the promotion, and he called attention
10 the fact that Schley had beer
placed in precisely similar predlca
ment when he was made commando
to succeed Commodore Quncenbush
who was dismissed and afterwards re
inStated.

HEROIC ATTEMPTS AT RESCUE

Southbridge, June S.-Pierre st. Onge,
II years old, was drowned while bath
ing in the big pond about o'clock this
afternoon. The young man in company
with two others, was enjoying a bath,
when evidently he was seized with
cramps. He had been in the water but
short time when he was seen to
throw up his hands and disappear.
Henry Richards, one of the young
mans companions, saw st. Onge and
made a heroic attempt to reach him be-
fore he went down, but was unsuccess-
full. st. Onge met his death in about
10 feet Of water.
Assistance was soon at hand and af-
ter about 80 minutes spent in searching
for the body, James Brown succeeded
in bringing it to the surface.
Medical Examiner Bradford was sent
for and after an investigation, pro-
nounced the case to be that of acci-
dental drowning.
St Onge was employed in the works
of the Hamilton Woolen company. He
was extremely popular with the young
people about town. He was a son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Louis st. Onge.

DORCHESTER LOST.
Clinton Team Was
Too Much For the
Visiting Club.
A LWRETCHED FIELDING GAME.
Errors Piled Up Until Home
Team Tire Of Scoring
Town Meeting,

Clinton, June 3.-Two hundred and
fifty people went to the High street
grounds this afternoon to see the Dor
chesters so completely outclassed that
they wondered why they came. Ce-
ccni combined in his single person all
the faults pitcher ought not to have.
A large portion of his diffidence about
pitching ball that couldn't be hit,
doubtless arose from the miserable
support with which he was provided.
AS a matter of sympathy for the
visitors-there was no other apparent
reason, Dowd was taken from the box
in the sixth inning and OMalley
pitched for the balance of the game.
During O'Malley's term, the Dorches-
ters hit out eight runs. OMalley was
not pitching as good a game as he
pitched on the occasion of his first ap-
pearance here. Thomas McGown, the
umpire, appeared to mean well, but ne
certainly didn't know how. He didn'
do much damage, because, if he made
a bad decision against one side, he
straightway righted it with a worse
decision against the other.
The air was full of wo-baggers and
three -baggers, not to mention first
base hits, so long as Clinton had the
bat. The Dorchester fielders were as
diaphanous as the air. At least the
ball frequently went right through two
or three of them without being the
least impedad.
Connaughton distinguished himself
by knocking a three-bagger and TWO
twos.
Griffin was on first base for Clinton,
where Austy Ball had hitherto been.
Manager McManus dispensed with
Austy during the week, largely be
cause of the errors committed by BaIl'
which cost the local team the game
it played on Memorial day with South
birmingham.
O'Brien seems to be the coming
player on the team. His work becomes
snappier with each game Thee team
DISPLAYED the standard fault Of recK-
less base running. The score:
