of Kuhn, Loeb & Co. died recently as the re-
suit of an operation. The members of the

Opposition to the New Road Law-Let-
ter From Delegate Stewart.-This week
the County Commissioners received letter
from Mr.. Redmond g. Stewart, member of the
House of Delegates, informing them that the
new road law had passed the House. Mr..
Stewart said
1.-THE proposed road law passed the House OF
Delegates last Thursday night, with the I'M
Outstanding that it should not go into effect
until January lst, 1901. If the law passes
think you will find that it has much in it
which will assist you in making yonr admin
istration a success. My object in writing this
note is to ask you, if the law does pass to re,
serve criticism of the same, as far as you feel
justified in doing, until have time, after the
adjournment of the Legislature, to go over the
whole matter carefully with you. Certainly l
have no desire, as have shown, to go against
your wishes"
The members of the Board say they are OPP
posed to the law they had been opposed to it
ali along, and are opposed to it now; that it
made one of the highest paid offices in the
county an appointive Office; that it was COM
bersome and would prove to be extravagant
and expensive, and that, as far as they went,
they had done all that they could do to pre-
vent its enactment, but to no avail.
The bill has since been passed by the Senate
and now awaits the Governors signature

TILE COLD DElIOCEIT

| 1t now seems probable that there will
be gold Democratic ticket in the field
this year. John P. Frenzel secretary
and treasurer of the executive commit
| tee of the gold Democratic party, has
received instructions from that COM
mittee, which met in New York last
week, to issue call for meeting of
the national committee of the party to
be held in indianapolis on July rs. The
talk is that though it was not antici-
pated that an effort would be made to
re-organize the forces that fought for
Palmer and Buckner in the last presi-
Dental battle the men who believe firm
not willing to give up the fight, All
over the country they have risen up and
been made. George Foster Peabody,
chairman of both the national and the
executive committee of the gold Demo-
cratic party, has been overwhelmed
with the expression of Democratic
sound money sentiment, which has
poured into his office in almost every
form. He has received letters, tele-
grams, and has been personally urged
to have something definite done. 1t
was in response to this strong pressure
that Mr.. Peabody called the meeting
last week, which resulted in the instruc-
tions sent to Secretary Frenzel
OF course the action of the Democrat
ic national convention in Kansas City
July may be such that the gold Demo-
Gratis will not feel like going into an in
dependent campaign. Also it may not
be. But if there is a gold Democratic
ticket it will not be likely to get as
many votes as the Palmer Buckner tick

the managers of it don't mean to let
its magnificence decrease. They have
Just done two things which show that
they intend to do their full duty by the
important interests which have been

They found that the principal of one Of
their schools had not been wise enough

| talked to him: The committee is very
carried on the work the past year, but
there is one thing THAT we feel should
be impressed upon you, and the position
you take in the matter will determine
to considerable extent your continued
services here. To be frank with you, it
Is the wish of the members that you
marry We have decided to make it a
rule that all principals of grammar
schools shall hereafter be married, as
we believe better results can be OBJ
tanned.
Acting on this hint the bachelor prin-
cipal has become engaged to fine
young woman, and his school work will
of course improve from now on. The
other thing the Holyoke school mana
gers have done doesn't seem to have
been quite as clearly right as their deli
cate encouragement of marriage is, but
as they wouldn't have done it unless it
was right it must have been right. 1t

intended for all sorts of gala use this
summer, and very likely to be the only
skirt she will possess. A long skirted
white muslin is an extravagant affair,
but many think 1t pity to save on
that one dress. The collar bank neck
Is to be seen on most of the carefully
stylish graduation dresses. The collar
is cut a perfect round showing the neck
from It's rise A good many dresses are
being ordered with yokes of open work
and collar band throats. 1t is aston
ishing how low some of these yokes are
cut. Such dresses are often made with
sleeves unlined to match thea yoke.
While there is tendency to simplicity
of skirt outline till the escape of frills
at the feet, the skirt ruff1ed to the belt
is one of the designs, A bodice ruffied
to the bust line and sleeves ruffled from
the shoulder to the elbow complete the
scheme. For slender. girlish figure the
design Is well chosen.
A frankly girlish costume is of white
linen. It's shirt waist has hemstitched
edges, dainty muslin stock and hem
stitched tie. The skirt Is almost tailor
like in simplicity and Is finished with a
deep hemstitched hem at the foot The
waist is perfect In cut, and the little
belt of white undressed leather is a
wonder of soping cut. Such a dress will
be inexpensive for graduating, and will
