BRINGING BACK THE DEAD.
Remains of Soldiers Not Landed Yet at
New York

1t is said at the War Department that
1t is impossible to say exactly when the re-
mains of soldiers brought home from Cuba
and Porto Rico on the Crook, which are to
be inferred in the Arlington cemetery, will
be forwarded. Colonel Moore of the quar-
termaster's department, who has charge of
the arrangements for the reinterment of
these remains, has prepared the following
statement in regard to the number of bodies
brought home on the Crook and their dis
position:
Number of remains brought from Cuba. $50
Number of remains applied. for by
relatives for private interment. ...... 22l
Number of remains uncalled for...... 329
Number Of remains brought from Porto
Number applied or................. 80
Number uncalled OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. sc
Total number of remains go
Total number of remains to be inferred
at Arlington cemetery. ry................... 500
Col Moore estimates that it will take at
least two days to remove the remains from
the ship to the railroad station. He saws
that arrangements have not yet been fully
perfected for the transportation of the re-
mains destined for Arlington, and he is as
yet unable to say exactly how and when
they will be taken there. 1t is probable
however, he said, that they will be taken
to the railroad station nearest to Arlington
and will not be disembarked in this city.
He said further, that the remains would
be brought over on the Pennsylvania rail-
road and probably taken from the cars at
a station within two miles of Arlington
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company has
promised the War Department to send to
the pier tomorrow morning float contain
ing five cars, and as the bodies going TO
Arlington are laid on the pier they will be
carried to the cars.
When all the bodies intended for Airing
ton have been placed on the float, the cars
will he started for Wa WaShinpfOn mill
go to Washington on the train as guard
of honor detail of eight privates under
the command of two non-commissioned
officers from the 18th United States Infan-
try, now stationed at Governors Island.
A military escort will be provided by the
troops at the Washington barracks, and
religious services will be conducted at the
Cemetery by a chaplain from Fort Monroe.
Full military honors will be paid to the
dead heroes, and their .lterment at Arling-
ton will be an impressive ceremony.

To say that hemorrhoiis. the disease commonly

least one in every four persons Is afflicted.
Because il is COMMON and not Immediately fatal
many suffer for years without giving the trouble

Moreover, the rather general impression that n
surgical operation is the only cure. has much To
DO with delaying attention until the disease be-
comes deep seated and chronic.
Sufferers from piles sl,euld know that the Pyramid

CHIIDREN'S FASHIONS.
White Frocks and Cunning Bonnets
for Mny Tots the Conn
ing Summer.

Charming little dresses for girls for
spring and cool summer day wear are
made from the soft silk warp fabrics,
such as Lansdowne, Henrietta, pophn
and yendella and from the fine all
woods, such as cashmeres, ribbons
shirred over their own cords being used
for trimmings.
Girls skirts are gored, but do not
have the ultra-sheath effect of the skirts
in vogue for their elders. The prettiest
bodices for girls are those which, in
reality or appearance, are worn with
under bodices.
A model that is becoming to girls
from four to six falls straight from a
short yoke, the seam being hidden UNI
der deep yoke shaped in four long
tabs. A picturesque hat for such a
frock is large straw with wide brim,
trimmed only with a crown sash and
huge sweeping bow of silk ribbon.
Piques are shown in many styles for
both little boys and girls of all sizes.
They are attractive when new, but
they are difficult to Iaunder, fact
the household where labor is at pre-
MUM. They should always be shrunk
before they are cut.
For wraps there is nothing jauntier
for small children than the reeIer
jacket: these are made in wide range
of materials this spring, from plain
cloth to pique. Some are braided, some
are trimmed with heavy lace, overlaid
on collars, put on jabot style down the
edges from plaits, set on or in plaits in
ins ertion style, etc. Wide-shaped col
Lara are on practically all children's
garments.
There is a marked revival of white
and wash goods for cbildren's wear.
The children in fashionable families
are frocked in white Sunday, Monday
and every day in the week all the year
round. Necessary warmth is secured in
underclothes which reach from neck to
ankles and in outer wraps.
Nothing washes so easily and well as
white, and it soils no more quickly
than any light-hued wash fabric. But
there are, none the less, many pretty
ginghams and percales from which to
make selection.
The little tots too young for straw
hats are wearing delightfully."- pretty
headgear made of shirred, finely twilled
Japanese silk, with plaitings of null,
| which fluff and fall and fly about the
face. LACE is interspersed with the null
on some hats, and bows of ribbon and
rosebuds are n pretty addition. The
elose-fitting bonnets are not confined
to infants this spring. some of them
being made with lacelike straw braid
crowns, and looking quaint as can be
on little women who have reached the
| toddling stage-Gentlewom

Thirty is not too old for college, al
though, of course, the average persons
collegiate time is over at that age. Yet
men have entered college at 40, and
been graduated. 1t all depends upon
how anxious one is to acquire knowl-

means incapable of acquiring knowl-
edge after that.
The school board of Newton, Mass,
recently decided that cooking was not
to be taught in the public schools of
that town, claiming. and very wisely,
that such an art could be best taught in
the pupils homes. MANY people" says
the Newton Graphic, think that the
danger limit has been reached,"-in re
gard to the multiplicity of things
taught in the schools-"and that it is
high time to return to old-fashioned
methods" People have gone to an i'm.
possible extreme, expecting the schools
to turn out skilled carpenters, dress
makers, lecturers, bookkeepers, ETC.

SHORT ENGAGEMENTS.
Custom That Too often Results In
Unhappy Matrimonial
Alliances.

10 announce an engagement IN these
days is to announce a marriage within
six months. Long engagements are out
of date, although quite common some
years ago. Whether this curtailing of
the counting period is desirable depends
of course upon circumstances.
Unless two people learn to know each
other before marriage, how can they
be sure of marital happiness? And if
their love cannot survive a long engage.
ment, is it rational to suppose that it
will survive marriage?
Society, which permits the hasty mar
rage of mere acquaintance, will not
allow the privilege of loving and hoping,
simply because the elimination of their
loves and hopes is in the future. 1t
cannot be because they do not trust
the American girl and man.
The custom which demands short en-
gagements is unhappy in every particu-
lar. How is it possible for two young
people to know each other in six
months, when half that time is spent by
the bride in preparing her rousseau?
lAoS, 'iiNN NSiS DNloI thCy
became engaged, but merely ac-
quainted.
1t is argued that long engagements
seldom result in marriage. If this is
true, il is lucky for the parties that
their engagements are broken. 1t shows
that they could not happily marry.
Marriage is, or ought to be, a serious
institution. Deliberation should prove
of benefit and not of harm. People
learn to be more sure of their feelings:
they gain tact; they learn to pardon
faults that might have been magnified
into crimes if the marriage had been
fastened; and they come to regard mar
| riage itself not as grand honeymoon,
but as continuation of their life
journey sweetened by companionship.

lad did; but no sooner had his feet
touched the ground than he was again
caught up and seated upon the ele-
plants back. Three times Arthur
Searles attempted to escape, but each
time the elephant recapturcd him.
An alarmed messenger summoned
me, and l arrived on the scene in time
to see Romeo foil the boys third at
tempt to escape. A happy thought
struck me. i promised the lad five dol
lars if he would remain and ride Romeo
in the street parade, which would soon
take place. The little fellow smiled
family and said that, as Romeo would
not let him go, he would have to stay
and earn the five dollars. AS a result,
half an hour later Romeo paraded the
streets of the town peacefully and
contentedly, with the boy on his back,
to the great surprise of the citizens.
The line of parade led directly by
Arthur Searles' home, and when his
Mortified mother saw her son perched
upon the back of the notorious ele-
phant, whose record was familiar to
y
frightened to protest; but she fol-
lowed her boy and Romeo throughout
the parade until she saw the elephant,
when he arrived at the exhibition
grounds, raise his trunk and tenderly
set down his youthful rider.
] at once sought the boys father and
so arranged matters with him that
when the circus left town Arthur
Searles went with it as Romeo's keeper.
This was the only master that Romeo
never attempted to harm. But the ele-
plant gradually grew more and more
intractible, until to keep him any
where within bounds, Arthur Searles
had to sleep beside him. Even this was
effective only for a short time, and
Romeo gradually became such a con
slant source of anxiety that it finally
was necessary to Gave him killed.-Dan

silks for Summer,

China or India silks are to be more
fashionable this year than they have
been for very long time. They are GER
tainly much cooler than the taffetas, or,
Tor that matter, than almost any other
material in the market. They are ex-
quisite in coloring, and, besides. have a
great variety of designs entirely differ
ent from those used on the taffetas, ex-
cept the black figured ones that have
much the same designs, lacking. how
ever, the stiffness and body of the taf.
fetas. Many of the figured China silks
are comparatively inexpensive, and al.
most all wear well. They must be made
up either with a silk lining or with a
very good cotton lining. while the taft
feta silks have the advantage of not
needing lining.-Harper's Bazaar.
