The blanks for writing the names in
the Cuban census are twice as large as
the blanks for the same purpose in this
country. This grows out of the fact that
tbs Spanish names are usually about
vice as long az American and English
names. In Spain it is the geas',sl Gus
tom to give a child the surname vf his
father and of his mother, and this Gus
tom has been followed in Cuba for q
great many years.

The crumpled roseleaf of the seaside
woman's life is straight hair. She will
not believe that she looks we'll with
plain tresses and she is unhappy when
straight wiSpS that once were curls
blow around her face at the first breath
of dampness, says the New York Com
mercial Advertiser. She has expert
mented with curling fluids and patent
hair wavers and she has stayed up late
nights evolving bandeauX that DO not
require MadOnnaesque features to set
off their beauty. But she always gives
way in the end and does one of three
things-packs her trunks and goes to a
high, dry, curl-respecting atmosphere;
throws vanity to the fOgs and makes
no attempts at ringlets; or remains in
doors whenever possible and devOteS
at least three hours a day to evolving
curly couture and repairing damages
to the same. When the last alterna-
tive is accepted the victim is given to
mysterious disappearance. Immediate

or two later with friZzes galore crown
ing her triumphant brow. Between
dances she does not roam around on
the piaZZaS or frequent dim, damp cor
ners where women with naturally cur
ly hair may sentimentalize in peace.
When she goes in bathing her scarlet
cap is tied on with gay kerchief,
and beneath these double wrappings
are pigtails tightly plated, waves done
up in kid curriers' and ripples firmly
skewered on metal pins. The haIr-
dressers and the women with broad
low foreheads, who look we'll with I'M
crimped hair, have little feeling for
these seaside martyrs. The hair dress
ers recommend tOupees, and bring out
for inspection little arrangements of
real hair and tortoise shell that
would make Buffalo Bill smile. The

think that face enameling, false teeth

whitney Confession Doubled.

Indianapolis, Ind, telegram: The state

the alleged confession of KID Whit
ney, an inmate of the state refOrma-
tory, that he. Noah Baney and third
man unnamed. murdered the wife OF
the Rev. William Z. Hinshaw at Belle
vile in January, 1895. The affidavit
made by Whitney is now in the pos
session of j. O. Parker of Evansville,
one of the minister's attorneys, and
it will be brought here for inspection
by the governor. The minister's at
torneys say they do not intend to ask
for a pardon for him at this time. No
request in his behalf will be made, they
say, until it has been clearly demon
strated that he is innocent of the crime
for which he is serving a life sentence.

wealth, when he received $4,000 for his

Gale and at the farm of titled agricul-
turist.
He is more interested in agriculture
than in anything else save his profess

since his first tour here the pianist has
come on his own responsibility, and
will continue to do so in the future.
Paderewski is now at his Poland es-

defalcations of one of his principal
clerks, whose books show a deficit of
several thousand pounds.

The latest rumOr of Ignace Paderew-

as the various reports of his engage
ment to the American women he met
on his visit to this country three years
ago. His relations with the Gorski
family have long been we'll known. His
invalid son lived with the Polish vio-

that followed the death of his mother,
and he has been their intimate friend,
at times making his home with them
when in France.
When Nine Gorski and her husband
were divorced there was no change in
the famous pianist's relations with the
family. and his son has lived with
Nine. Gorski recently, and her life has
been in a large measure devoted to the
care of him. 1t is not believed by any
