Hitchcock, an eminent lawyer, wh6
went to Alabama from Vermont to prac-
tice law and was so successful that at
the time of his death, in 1889, he was
chief justice Of the state. The family
then removed to Tennessee, where young
Ethan lived until 1851. After taking an
academic course in New Haven he went
to st. Louis and engaged in business up
to 1862 when, at the urgent request Of
relatives in China, he left for that ooun-
try to accept employment in the old es.
tablished firm of Olypbant SS Co.
Mr.. Hitchcock has since been actively
engaged in business as president Of sew
eral large manufacturing and railway
corporations at st. Louis.
While minister to Russia Mr. Hitch
cock has labored to introduce in that
country machinery and articles made in
the United States. Before sailing Mr..
Hitchcock visited some Of the largest
manufacturing establishments in the
country and promised to cooperate with
the manufacturers to further their in
terests
Colonel Hitchcock is a great-grandson
of Colono Ethan Allen, who captured
Fort Ticonderoga Gin the name of the
Great Jehovah and the Continental con-
gress." He has for years been society
leader in st. Louis and is wealthy. His
brother, Henry Hitchcock, is a leading

Women sh0uld Know II.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery b, cause the nature OF their dis
ease is not correctly understood, They
have BEEN led TO believe that womb
trouble or female weakness of some sort
is responsible TOR the many ills that
beset womankinn.
Neuralgia nervousness, headache,
puffy or dark circles under the eyes,
rheumatism, dragging pain or doll
ache in the back, weakness or bearing
dogn sensation, profuse or scanty sup
ply OF urine with strong odor, frequent
desire to pass ic with sCalding or burn
ing sensation. sediment in 1t after stand
ing in bottle or common glass for
twenty.fouI hours, are signs OF kidney
and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often attri-
buted bv the patient herself or by beT
physician to female weakness OF womb
lrouble. Hence so many fail to obtain
relief, because they are treating, not the
disease itself, but a reflection RI the
primary cause, which is kidney trouble
In fact, women as well az men are
made miserable with kidney and bladder
trouble and both need the same remedy.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root is the great
discovery OF the eminent kidney and
bladder specialist, and is easy te get al
any drug store for fifty cents or one
| dollar.

faoes we snall see rrobe patternsr in great
variety. These are usually Of wool or wool
and silk, light In weight and harmonious
In coloring. The body of the stuff Is plain,
but there is portion of It figured or bro
caded in q sort of relief pattern. Some OF
this looks like heavy lace laid on and some
has any sort Of design that suited the art
ist who invented IL. There Is one part de-
signed for the skirt and the rest for the
waist and sleeves.
1t goes without saying that these are in
tended solely for home wear. The most Of
these stuffs are light tints with darker
shades of the same as the applique design
for trimming which Is woven In. The
weaving of these Is something between
albatross and cashmere.
Hopsaok In all sorts of oolors will be
fashionable for outdoor spring and sum-
mer dresses. Another new weave Is called
satin mixture. So many bright colors are
woven into this that one cannot dlstin-
guisb any one separately. The surface is
satlny and the effect modest and pleasing.
We must remember that red and blue
make purple, and whom white and black
are added the color becomes plum. Green
is brought into being by the union Of vel.
low and blue. This may be made russell
by red and black, and so on. do not pre-
tend to know all the weayer's art, but
when all the prismatic colors are blended
together with black and white we have
perfection.
There Is very elegant stuff in silk and
wool for tailor costumes. Two oolors cross
in hairlines, forming fine checks. Basket
weave is seen, and beautiful new stuff
of silk and wool with the groundwork In
the whole line Of new oolorinRs. Thrown
over the light body of the goods are black
lines which resemble very open gronadine
over silk. 1t is very wide and am sure
1t will be popular.
There are quite a number Of pekin
striped woods In subdued oolors. These
are exceedingly neat and tasteful and will
be liked by conservative ladies for ordinary
street wear where true refinement Is shown
by modest attire.
All sorts of soft woolens and crisp serges,
as well as mohairs and all the cotton goods,
show polka dots of every size. Where the
goods are light the dots are black and vice
versa. Some wool crepons in pleasing col
ors have polka dots.
Silks are to bo used largely for coats for
spring, and woods more for dresses. Thea
ter waists and other waists are made, 1t
seems to me, Of everything just as 1t hap

John the Baptist, New York, is reputed
to have worked marvellous cures. and
equally marvellous cures are expected
from the exposure of this relic Of St,
Anthony
The relic is a splinter from the thigh
bone of st. Anthony. The fragment Of
bone is scarcely larger than good sized
pea. 1t is set IN jewels arranged in the
form of the emLlem of the Capuchin
order. 1t has blood red stone for a
background and is mounted on silver
stand covered with glass. The genuine
ness of the relic is certified in Latin.
The relic is in charge of the Capuchin
friars who conduct the church and was
sent TO them by the very reverend fa-
ther superior of the basilca in Padua.

these rich, striped silks, with their dainty
trailing flowers or their my garlands
I never see pompadour silk without
thinking of Camden House, Chiselhurst,
England. It was in that old house that
the Empress Eugene took refuge and
lived with her son and suit after the
death of the EN- peror. The house had been
the abode Of royalty many times, and the
queen of England offered it to tho unfor-
tunate empress. 1t stands on the broad
summit OF q rolling plateau and is in
closed, having at the outer entrance lodge
for the gatekeeper. These double gates
are of iron beautifully wrought, and at
the time was there they bore the crest OF
the emperor.

tained the friendship of the empress for
me, and she invited me for visit Of two
days to Camden House. The whole house,
wide and rOomy though low, Is OF stone
outside end dark and richly carved woods
within. 1t Is only when In the parlor,
which is also sort of general living room,
that one feels relieved from the dark col
ors and somber corners.
This room was large and had two i'm
mense windows facing south and chim-
ney with an open fireplace opposite them
where logs were burning on the hearth.
All the walls above the richly carved wains-
coting were covered with paintings-mu'
raj decorations-by some great artist.
Every picture was a sort OF historical rep
resentation of somO occurrence at the
court OF Louis XIV, and every face was

The skirts for next season seem to be OF

ed by periodical raids among all the
Philippine islands. He has grand
vizier and barber who tells him stories.
The Moros are not particularly obedient
to their sultan. Sometimes they kill
him and sometimes they set up another
in his place
Mr.. Dean @. Worcester, the acknowl-
edged American authority ON the Phil
ippines, devotes considerable attention
to the Sulu islands, their rival sultans
aud the blood curdling features of life
there, A few years before the Spanish.
American war the Spaniards deposed
Mahmoud, the rightful sultan of Sulu,
and appointed in his place a chief, I'M
der the title of "his excellenoy, Paduca
Msjasari Malauna Amiril Mauinin Sui
tan Harun Narrasid. "
The Spanish had invited the rightful
sultan to come to Manila and be invest
ed with his crown. Remembering that
predecessor, who received similar
invitation, had been kept in prison for
life by the Spanish, the sultan did not
respond. Thereupon the Spanish put
Harun in his place.
That did not worry the legitimate
sultan. Harun occupied the palace in
the city of Sulu, carefully guarded by
Spanish soldiers. Mahmoud occupied
the rest of the island with 10, 900 we'll
armed followers.
The most interesting character in
Sulu is the old sultana, mother of the
Sultan Mahmoud. Although born q
slave, she married previous sultan.
She hastened his departure from this
world with corrosive sublimate. When
Harun was appointed sultan, she sent
| him an offer of marriage, but he de-
clined it, as she wished to die nat
ural DEATH" Mr.. Worcester remarks
that she has o genius for organization,
but mania for poisoning.
The social arrangement is distinctly
feudal, each nobleman keeping large
number of armed retainers, who are
employed to fight in his behalf if there
be occasion. The mobiles form govern.
ing council, in which the sultan has
two votes. All the land is owned by the
datus, and the common people are Sc
verely oppressed. Those who can afford
the luxury have slaves, who, as rule,
are badly treated. The masters have
power of life and death over their
slaves, and nobleman who happens TO
be displeased with one Of his human
Chattels is az apt as not to strikeroff his
head with single sweep of his creese.
A Sulu nobleman never goes abroad
without being accompanied by band
of armed followers. Indeed the whole
population is always armed. Arms form
part Of the national costume. A gentle
man of the archipelago commonly car
ries lance and oreese, both of which he
knows how to use with great dexterity.
The blowpipe is national weapon. II
is a hollow tube of palm, through which
small darts are propelled by the breath
to considerable distance and with mar
velous accuracy, This instrument ID
employed chiefly for killing birds.
1t is to be feared that not few bright
young American soldiers will die by
the GREECE and poisoned arrow before the
sultan Of Sulu has been thoroughly in
troduced to Uncle Sam.

FASHIONS OF new YORK
Spring Will See a Revival OF
Pompadour Styles.
LOUIS QUINzB STRIPES IN AGAIN.

Not Only the silks, hut the shapes,
Are to he the Same MS Those Worn
when the Empress Eugenie Ruled
the Court OF France.
copyright, 1899, by American Press Asso-
ciatlon.l
When one is standing among the piles
and bales of the new silks for spring, one
cannot refrain from saying, "M. Tonson
come again |" for here are the old pompa-
dours by the ton. And pompadours they
will be when the gowns are made up as
we'll as In the piece, for fashion says our
ladies shall look like those of the time Of
Louis XIV.
The richest Of these new designs show
the broad dark or black stripe of satin or
velvet with plain or moire ground be-
tween, on which is the floral pattern. This
usually shows wreaths of exceedingly small
flowers i'm natural tints and colors, ex-
quisitely blended and chosen.
Some of these patterns have the flowers
in raised or embossed figures Of velvet or
of raised brocade Bowknots representing
lace or ribbon are very dainty, and they
take the place Of flowers on some of the
light stripes. They are inwoven and most
artistioally DONE
Many Of these pUmpndour designs In
the richest qualities have alternate stripes
in black and white, two inches wide. The
Louis XIV figuring is always on the white
stripe. Light pink, blue, cream, mauve
and pale green are also seen as the alter
mating stripes with contrasting colors In
the floral pattern. There are some striped
pieces where the black line Is velvet and
the light one moire without any further
pattern. This is very striking and bold,
and yet It looks well, especially for the
princess gowns, which seem to have been
invented for the express purpose Of show
ing these stripes to advantage.
The pompadour waists, the long coats
with their dainty vests and the sweeping
trains are all clearly suitable to show Off

As expansionists we have already
had some little difficulty with Aguinal-

more. But the Philippine problem is
All easy one compared to that which
awaits us in the Sulu islands. The
would be president Of the Filipino re-
public is as mild and tractable as a pet
lamb when compared to the sultan OF
Sulu.
As this is the first real sultan who
has ever become an American subject
we ought to be very much interested in
his personality. Biographical data about
this new American potentate are some-
what lacking, but few facts have been
made public
The sultan of Sulu is young man.
He knows about as much concerning
civilization as wo do Of the other side

naughty. He probably imagines that he

The inhabitants Of the Sulus are call
ed Moros. The foundation OF the race
is Malay, as in the Philippines, but the
Moros have been strongly influenced by
Arab blood. In the seventeenth century
an Arab named Said Ali conquered the
Sulu islands and foroibly converted the
natives to Islamism. He and his follow
ers took large numbers Of wives, and
thus added an Arabian strain to the
Malay race.
The Moros are governed by eultans
and by hereditary chiefs called datus
The latter are often supreme in their
own domains, but are supposed to give
homage to the sultan of Sulu.

to do. He has great harem, replenish
