Breasts, grebe fronts and made feath-

Spanish boxed-up brim Is usually chos-

Great shadowy folded turbans set well
on one side, with a knot and fall of
heavy fringe on the, up tilted side, are
very becoming. Hats Of Spanish hrim
shape are entirely folded away in the
draping of soft satin, panne velvet or
cloth scarf, the folds knotting into a
great bunch at one side and the fringe
hanging to the ear tip. Hats of corded
taffeta silk are very pretty, and a well

some dainty wide brimmed shipe, is
trimmed very prettily with lace and
chinchilla. Lace scarfs fringed with
silk are used on fur hats together with
flowers, and the effect is really very
pretty The most gorgeous display of
flowers is reserved for draped velvet

GOOD ROADS IN MARYLAND.

Maryland is waking up to the i'm
portance of good roads. Facts gath
cred by the State Geological survey as
preliminary to the work of road i'm
provement in that State show that of
the 14,4S3 miles of public road in the
State only 1850 miles are improved
The road laws are not of a character
to insure good roads, and, as a result
the roads are badly located, badly
graded, badly drained, and badly sur
faced, causing very heavy tax on all
hauling. The average distance each ton
of freight is hauled to or from the
Maryland farms is 81 miles; the aver
age cost is 26 cents mile per ton, or
$1.74 a ton for the whole haul. There
are about 100000 acres of farm land in
Maryland, and there is about one ton of
freight hauled annually per acre to or
from each farm. The total cost, there
100000 a year, The cost of hauling in
New Jersey has been reduced one-half
where the roads are improved. There
fore, by improving Maryland roads one
half of this sum could be saved Max
ing a liberal allowance for the fact
that part of the hauling is done over
toll-roads. and that some of it goes over
unimportant roads that could not be

that at least $S,OOO,O0O a year could be

President Eliot of Harvard was invit-
ed by the rectors Of the Boston parishes
to come to their weekly meeting and
talk to them. He talked with his usual
frankness. He told them that Protest
ant Episcopalism seems to him a sur
vival from the past, prejudiced against
everything new; that he thinks the
ceaseless round of repetitfons involved
In the use of the Prayer book must
make against individual vigor and
growth; that he does not believe any
man has power to pardon another
mans sins; that to his thinking the
Prayer book phrase I'm the times of
mans innocency" is historically I'M
truthful, and the phrase about man be-
ing conceived and born in sin is moth
ing short of blasphemy." Dr. Shinn,
DIR. Shafter, DR.. Lindsay and other rec
tors argued these and other points
with their Unitarian guest, but 1T is
not reported that they convinced him.

GOOD LIVERPOOL ADvICEs.
They Bring an Advance of From 5 to
Points in Cotton.

New York, Sept. 5.-Murphy & Co, say
Of cotton to-day: THE Liverpool cables
were encouraging to-day, with an advance
of about 2-64 on futures, hence we opened
to points above Saturday. With the
early demand satisfied, the market became
quiet and steady with comparatively lit
tie trading and prices did not change more
than points. The receipts continue very
large, but the Southern markets hold
their quotations well, and no pressure is
shown The weekly government report
was more favorable than looked for, but
a monthly report viii be issued on the 10th
inst, which it is thought will make a
more unfavorable report The weather
throughout Texas is dry and unseasonably
hot, but the weather seems TO have lost
its influence upon the market for the
present.

they are receiving from the buyers in
Texas in an increased demand from the
spinners in Manchester aud an advance in
the market. These advices were better
than anticipated, causing a sharp advance
at the opening. This met with selling by
abitrase brokers and local traders, which
brought a slight decline. 1t cannot he
said the local feeling is in favor of the
market on the contrary, the idea seems to
be that the large movement of the crop
