Bishop williams Wit.

Many anecdotes We're told of Bishop
Williams Of Connecticut after his death.
for the good Bishop was as well known
for his love of fun as for his earnest
piety.
AT meeting Of the Bishops a meas
ure was proposed and explained by its
originator, but with such incoherence
that nobody understood it. A second
speaker essayed to make the matter
clear, but only darkened it. When he
had finished Bishop Benjamin Smith of
Kentucky tried to explain the question,
and also the explanations. Feeling that
he had failed, he said:
Bishop Williams smiles. What has
he to say about it?"
Only this said the old Bishop, .that
the mess of Benjamin was found, to be
greater than the mess Of any of his
brethren
The humor of DIR. Williams" saws a
friend, was always present and ready
like flash Of sunlight. 1t had one Pc
cullar1ty, 1t never scorched nor left a
scar behind"
At an assemblage Of noted men a
year or two ago lawyer who conducts
the legal business of a great railway
system tried to guy the parson" by
maMcious quizzing. At last he said:
why don't you get these railway mans
ayers to give you pass over their
roads. Bishop? You can pay for ii
by giving them entrance tickets into
heaven"
on, no" gently replied the Bishop. 81
would not part them so far from their
counsel in the other world
The laugh was general and the law

Summer cloth and foulard, ana
etamine or canvas and soulard, form
very smart gowns. A few or the
latest gowns are ouble-skirted, but the
majority are in one piece when maus
of wool of any description.
Many dressmakers are using hounceS
cut straight from the goods, instead or
the long popular circular shapes cut
bias The reason is that on wash fabrics
the former come from the laundry IN
better condition than the others, and
on very light, airy fabrics they hang
better. even when the fiounces are first
arranged upon the skirt. White India
linen or Victoria lawn dresses have
three flounces on the skirt graduated
in size. They are each made with an
inch and a half hem, with three tucks
above the hem India muslin of pale
forget me-not blue are trimmed with
deep cream colored lace insertion bands
and appliques. Some of the imported
dresses have tucked bodice and hip
yokes alternating with insertion, with
sleeves tucked and banded from wrist
to elbow. Blue nuns yelling gowns
are similarly made.
A very stylish costume from Paris IS
made of shallow gray summer cloth
trimmed with white lace and black vel
vet ribbon. The underskirt has ten
inch circular f1ounce of gray silk yelled
with a white lace ruff1e of the same
widthe The overdress is of gray cloth,
scalloped at the edges, and bound with
black velvet The open bodice has
vest and collar Of white lace over gray
silk, the vest being arranged la
Breton, with three horizontal straps of
velvet. Silk and lace frills finish the
edges of the open waist These are
turned back like revers.
The new lovely rose color called
American beauty is a prominent shade
among rich or dainty summer textiles
and ON French millinery in hats entire
or among the striking accessories.
The toques, turbans, and English
walking hats of this season are greatly
liked, these shapes being patronized by
some of the best dressed women of
the city. A great fancy prevails this
year for making up tulle into sailor,
toque and other fashionable styles.
Two colors are generally used on these
models, like green tulle combined with
white tulle, blue with violet, etc. A
charming hat of pink tuile intermixed
with white is trimmed with black vel
vet, shaded roses, and spray of apple

blossoms. White tulle hats to wear
with airy evening toilets are trimmed
with white wings and quaint rhine
stone buckles.
One of the pretty fabrics Of the sum-
mer, inexpensive enough to cast aside
when it's first freshness is past, or one
has had a seasons careful wear out
Of it, is American-woven pique, or
cotton reps" as some of the merchants
call it. 1t costs only 1919 cents a yard,
and is firmly and evenly woven. The
goods are manufactured in designs too
numerous to- MENTION but they are
all neat, dainty and most attractive,
and no one need wish smarter little
gown for morning wear than white
American pique, dotted in pink or blue,
or barred with gray. black or red, the
gown simply made, and trimmed either
with rows of white braid or only ma
chime stitching. Never have there been
such wonderful opportunities to dress
well ON a very small sum of money.
High-class modistes are making con-
siderable use of fringes of every width
in silk or chenille, or both, in. COM
bination.
Entire white costumes will be in
marked vogue this summer, and as
white parasols and beautiful white
dress materials are now to be pur-
chased at such surprisingly low prices,
it is very easy to make a selection for
white toilets. White silk gloves of the
best quality look cool and dainty dur
ing the hot summer, worn with White
gowns of transparent textile; and the
milliners have quantities of white roses
lilacs, hawthorns. carnations, snowballs,
violets, white wings. feathers. aigrettes,
etc, with which to complete an all
white hat or tulle, chip, fancy braid,
shirred silk or figured net.
On many women the lines of the i'm
proved princesse gown are notably
graceful and becoming, adding hight
and imparting an effect of rounded
slenderness. One of many handsome
gowns in gray sent over this season is
a model in gray crepe de chine. The
back of the gown is perfectly plain, but
beautifully fitted and finished, fiaring
considerably ON the lower half of the
demi-train. In front the bodice portion
opens to the belt over a gilet of shir-
red white chiffon. A deep collar, almost
like a shoulder cape, covers the entire
upper part of the gown, and this collar

slightly fulled just at the belt), and the
closing on the left side of the skirt are

guard his going out and his coming in,
even to examining his bed before he
gets into it. They are nothing more
than fanatics, with so great lust for
thing upon the least provocation, which
is, perhaps, the reason why their au-
gust master employs them 1t is a
common saying in Turkey that any one
who shows the slightest sign of mad
ness can get into the Janissaries. Up
to about seven years ago the Sultan al
ways employed Albanians to guard
him, but one day he imagined that he
had cause to doubt their fidelity, so he
beheaded some, imprisoned others. and
sent the rest about their business.
The Swiss used to be utilized as
guards by nearly every sovereign in
Europe on account of their fidelity, but
now the Pope is the only person who
seeks their aid. He has two bodies of
Swiss soldiery on duty at the Vatican,
one in the daytime and the other at
night
For peculiar methods of being looked

first. She has no body guard in the

ROYALTY UNDER GUARD.
How the Crowned Heads Are Pro-
tected From Possible Injury.

Guarding the person of sovereign is
a matter of some Importance, and near
ly every European ruler has his or her
special body guards, whose sole duty
is to study the safety of their regal en-
ployers. In civilized nations is this
especially the case when anarchists and
plotters of various kinds are the chief
enemies to be feared. Those who rule
over nations bound UP in uncivilization
scarcely need body guards, inasmuch
as even a look may mean death to a
subject when life is regarded as such
a trifie. In Europe. however, things are
different, and every King or Queen is
protected by a certain body Of armed
men.
The Queen is guarded in many ways.
To begin with, she is always Swallowed
by a special body of detectives, who
follow her about incognito and set a
watch upon every suspicious person.
The real body guard of British SOW

they have since existed as the body
When her majesty is travelling in
London she is generally accompanied
by squadron of Royal Horse Guards
or Life Guards, in the absence of the
Beefeaters, who now fulfill their duties
more in name than anything else, ex-
cept as keepers of the tower. In the
diamond jubilee procession guard was
furnished by both British and colonial
troops.

person to look after in the whole world,
owing to the deep rooted plots which
are constantly formed against his life
