TIME TO Pr.

No war with Turkey vet, but the
news comes from washington that
Turkey must pay that little bill or take
the consequences of refusal. 1t Is GER
tainly high time she did pay. The
claims are five years old They We're
originally 100000, but they have been
scaled down by agreement to 100000.
Three distinct promises of payment Of
this sum have been made, and three
distinct times have been set by the
Turkish government for their settle
ment These promises have not been
fulfilled. The hope of prompt and
friendly settlement was large consid-
Grafton in the scaling down of the
amounts of the losses which our citi-
zens have sustained through the fall
ure of the Sultan's government to pro-
tect their property and rights.
The experience of Europe in getting
little bills paid by Turkey is not very
encouraging to the United States. Tur-
key never pays any bill she can avoid
paying. Three years ago, however, she
did pay little bill presented by Aus
tria An Austrian subject had been
matreated in Messina. Asia Minor,
and the controversy over an indemni-
ty had dragged along a few weeks in
the usual way. Then Austria cut the
thing short by informing the Sultan
that, if her demands were not complied
with by a near day named, she would
lombard the town. Immediately the
money was paid down. and the Aus
trian battleship sailed away Per-
haps we shall ultimately have to send
a collector that will talk business"
The Europeans are much interested
in our efforts to mako Turkey pay. The
st. James Gazette says America has
entered the European arena and appar-
emily has no intention of standing any
humbug from the Turks. Why should |
she? The Eastern question has no ter
rors for a Power with a whole ocean |
between herself and the Balkans. The |
President thinks the Sultan has had |
grace enough. But, If America sets
foot in Asia Minor, perhaps she will
find that neither Russia nor Germany !

less forms. Etons that dip in front to
below the waist line, may not get fur
ther up than the belt line at the sides,
then they often curve up sharply at the
back showing a bit of a deep bodice
belt or the lower part of the under
bodice. Usually there is trace Of this
same belt or bodice in sight at back
and sides. There is fancy for having
such bodice in a material and color
contrasting with that of the jacket. A
jacket of tan sprinkled with tiny white
chenille dots slopes up in the back to
show bodice of white silk barred with
bands of tan. A deep dado of the tan
barred with white shows on the skirt.
Pictured here is bodice that had
neither jacket nor shoulder finish. Such
plainness at the top Of the sleeves is
stylish, but as was indicated above is
no. longer essential and what Is more,
trimming at the shoulders does not In
dictate, as nto long ago it did, a lack in
the wearer's figure. One should be of
good shoulder width, however, to don
entirely plain sleeves. So elaborate and
new was the neck finish of this waist
that a bolero was not needed. The
goods was reseda blue cheviot, which
was corded in the body. Chemisette,
collar and revers were Persian silk
the latter faced with white renaissance
lace. Fanciful ties are customary with
this cut Of bodice, and this one was
white net with renaissance ends. The
tabs of sleeves and front echoed the
finish of the skirt. FLORETTE.

Il HEAVY LOAD.

Hon. J. j. Wilett of Alabama Is still
going up and down trying to put more
life into the boomlet of Judge Augustus
Van Wyck. His efforts are worthy of
a cause more successful than the one
he has chosen seems to be. He draws
a lively and gloomy picture of the state
of things which he, thinks Judge Van
Wyck can improve. Think of it, he ex-
claims, with forty-five States and nine
ty United States senator's, we have only
twenty-five senators, and outside of a
few from far western States, these are
all from the South. Not Democratic
governor in single northern State for
the first time, l believe, in q century;
a solid North against us and four States
missing from the solid South. The
municipal elections throughout Nebras-
States the other day gave us no encour-
agement to hope for better things. The

Willett declares to be the influence of
Mr.. Bryan. Even the politicians who
are shouting for him admit it is i'm
possible for him to win"
Bryan is indeed heavy load. The
Democratic donkey is always carrying
a heavy load of some kind. He is
patient and unreasoning animal.

WOMEN FAMOUS IN MUSIC.

OF the many women famous as inter
prefers of pianoforte music Clara Schu-
mann, Teresa Carreno, Sophia Menter,
Annette Essipoff and Fannie Bloomfield
Zeisler have attained the greatest prom
inence. Teresa Carreno, the South
American pianist, has aroused the
greatest enthusiasm by her marvellous
playing, both in the art centers of the
old world and in this country, her for
mer home. Sophia Menter, the Russian
pianiste, was the pupil Of Tausig, Won
Buelow and Liszt She was known at
the age of fourteen as Tausg's favorite
pupil and often appeared in concerts
with him. Liszt always spoke most en-
Enthusiastically of her talent and once
wrote to Rubinstein 'There is no wo-
man living who can be compared with
her." Annette Essipoff, the wife and
pupil of Leschetizky, is another famous
Russian pianiste. OF her playing it is
quite enough to say that Paderewslzi
has more than once stated that he
learned more from that than from the
teaching of Leschetizky.

was the daughter of the great piano
teacher, Frederick Week, and the wife
Of Robert Schumann, the composer.

piano at the age Of five years, and en-

early age of eleven. At the Gge Of

The latest report Of the Boston board
Of park commissioners contains some
interesting information as TO expert
m1ents made with oil to lay the dust in
the park system. A section of jamaica
way was sprinkled with oil, about six
gallons per linear foot being used. The
surface of the road thus treated be-
came permeated with the oil, and
formed cushion on the surface of the
road very elastic and pleasant to drive
upon. The treatement resulted in the
abatement of dust for a period of two
months on that part Of the road sub
jected 10 il. The only serious objection
found to this treatment for laying dust
on the parkways is the rank odor of the
material. After the lapse Of six or eight
weeks it was still very offensive and the
source Of much complaint. Apart from
the above objection, the experiment
demonstrated the fact that dust can be
more effectually laid by the oil treat
ment than by water sprinkling, and at
less than half the cost.
