Ladies' Model Basque In Two Lengths,
No. 7SI9.
(Hints by May Manton.)
No matter how deliberately a
waist may be trimmed, bloused or
drapcd. it is invariably modelled or
"built' on tight-fitting lining.
The accompanying design illus
trates plain, close-fitting basque,
showing all the graceful seams in
the back and under the arm, with
the bias French dart and curved
front line. The close fitting sleeve
is correctly shaped with slight full
ness at the shoulder.
Professional and home dress
makers who realize the necessity
for good-ftting, wcll-shaped foun-
dation lining will find that this
pattern meets all the requirements.
II is perforated for a short, round
basque, reaching just to the waist
line, and has, in addition to the
usual number of pieces, separate
model for the French back, shaped
without center seam. 1t is cut in
the larger sizes, having an extra
under-arm gore which gives much
grace to a stout figure and is
great help in fitting.
Ladies tailors are making up
some beautiful cloth gowns exactly
like the illustration, fastened with
single or double rows of tailor but
tons. We have seen so much of
these loose-fitting and bloused
baSques that this innovation is sure
to gain favor, especially with ladies

In answer to Cotter's recent letter the
following was written by the officers OF
St. Pau's Church;
Wilmington, Del, September 10, 1899.
DEAR SIR; Your favor has been re-
ceiyed, and we OF st. Pauls Sunday
School have heard with interest the
letter you so kind y enclose, and al
though many changes have come to our
ranks, and many have gone to their re-
ward, yet we wish to assure you that in
the christian sympathy that charac-
terized the ST. Paul's Sunday School of
years gone by, there has been no change
and that we have heart felt sympathy
for you at this time, for we cannot but
realize that it is only through the good
ness OF our Heavenly Father to us, that
We are differently situated from you.
Had our environments been the same as
yours have been, the result in all prob
ability would have been the same, and as
our poor human hearts beat with SYM
patty for You at this time, We cannot
but realize that the Father whose love
Is divine, must be yearning with tender
love and compassion over you. We do
not need to be convinced OF the fact that
&c LIAM who pays the penalty of the law
III prison is the man to honor, in pref
efence to he who may escape, and we
want you to know and feel that st.
pau's Sunday School will take pleasure
in welcoming back the soldier OF thirty
six years AGO to her ranks. With us you
will always find hearty welcome, and
the sadness you are now passing through
will only unite us in stronger bond of
sympathy and love. The intent Of this
letter is to make you feel that there is
yet much left to you, and that in true
christian friendship there is no change.
Cotter's "reminiscences.
The last letter, which completes this
story, was received by the editor Of The
SrN recently and was as follows:

Letter of July, 1864.
Wilmington July

W iih'hbso', '''1 A''I.
DEAR BRo.: AT meeting of the Sab
bath School Association of the St. PauIs
NJ. L. Church, held June 2, 1864, we
were appointed on their behalf to express
the deep interest and sympathy they
feel toward you. and all our late ass0ci-
ates now serving in the armies OF the
Union.
We are speaking their judgment when
we say that you are engaged in a noble
work, the most important in the history
of the Nation SINCE the days of the early
Revolution, the suppression Of most
wicked Rebellion. In the prosecution
| OF this great object we are sensible of the
many sacrifices that you are called upon
to make, the many hardships you en-
dure, the many dangers that surround
YOU and the many temptations that be
set you in soldiers life. And while
we bid you God-speod in your great
work, at the same tune we most heartily
sympathize with you in your labors and
sufierings. We pray most earnestly that
God in His goodness may be pleased to
preserve your lives, and not only your
| lives, but the purity of your hearts and
your Christian integrity, SO that in your
daily walk you may be living witnesses
| for the Gospel of our blessed Master -
true soldiers Of Jesus.
Though absent from us we hold you in
| daily remembrance at our family affairs
and in our closets, and weekly do we
make mention of you before the mercy
seat, in our public and social church
services, and in the Sabbath School that
still claims you, beseeching God, that
His saving grace may ever rest upon
you.
We wish you to know that your devo-
ton to the sold Flag" has kindled a
deeper flame of patriotism in the breasts
Of your Sabbath School associates, that
our hearts are now beating in unison
with yours, for the preservation Of our
glorious Union.
And whilst we pray that you NAV be
steadfast and firm in the hour OF conflict
we also supplicate our Heavenly Father
to hasten the day of final triumph, and
aoon restore you to our visible fellowship
in Jesus.
The Sabbath Schools join in asking
that the grace Of the Lord Jesus Christ
and the love of God and the communion
Of the Holy Ghot may be with you all.
Yours truly,
JOSEPH PYLE,
ISAAC l.. CRoucH,

Greenwood. 5. c.. Aug. 1.-THE sec

enlivened by a speech from Senator
Tillman. The senator pitched into
the whitecappers who have been ter

the last ten days and whipping inof-

this section Of the south. were still
stirring up the negroes, they ought to
be dealt with. If you want to uproot
this evil and kill the snake. go kill
the Tolberts, but don't abuse the poor,
innocent black wretches," said the sem

THE Yankees" said Senator Till

eyes OF the whole world are now on
the race problem in the south. This
sort OF thing, If continued. will arouse
bad feeling. Why, just look at that

seven days" But so carefully was his
work done, with such constant recourse
to every fact concerned, and so infused
with the spirit of genius was it, that
Sainte- Beuve's Monday causeries' be-
came the CHER recurring literary
event in Europe"
Such incessant occupation pursued
under such constant strain could have
but one result: he wore himself out.
For years he longed for some allevia-
ton of his daily toll, but the allevia-
ton never came till his BODY had sue
cumbed to disease. He died in 1862
but he was a worker till the last.
Sainte-Beuve in his younger days
made some effort to be a poet. But
his poetry. though ii has grace and dis
tinction, has not the force. the name
less charm, of great poetry. Matthew
Arnold, than whose opinion none can
be more valuable. had the highest re-
gard for Sainte-Beuve as a critic. And
he had the highest regard for him per
sonally, as a man and as a friend. But
nowhere in literary history is to be
found more amusing situation than
when Matthew Arnold was asked by
Sainte-Beuve himself to estimate his
poetry To say the true thing. to give
the true estimate, and that with tact
and delicacy, was perhaps as difficult
a task as the great English critic-whO
was himself a poet and one whom on
his part Sainte-Beuve had estimated
had to perform.
But Arnold's estimate of Sainte-
Beuve working in the field of criticism
is wholly without restraint and almost
wholly without restriction. He speaks
of Homer as the all-exceeding one in
epic marathon" of Plato as of similar
excellence in the treatment at once
beautiful and profound OF philosophic
questions" of Shakespeare as similarly
great lin the presentation of human
of Voltaire. too. as similar
ly great in "ironical discussion" "A
list of perfect ones he calculates.
each in his own line" And then to
the list lin the line of literary criti-
cism" he adds the name of Sainte-
Beuve.

Eastern capitalists show symptoms
Of genuine Utah fever. The latest out

This with other deals consummated

The fact is, the east is just beginning
, TO learn the truth about Utah's mineral
resources. Nevada, Colorado and
Idaho mines have all had greater
publicity in the east than have the
camps of Utah. The division of in

of a social and religious nature, have
prevented hitherto the united action
