THE NATIONAL EVENING MODEL
"The evening star is shining
On Shehallion's silver brow,

On Shehallion's silver brow"
Thus sang Walter Scott in picturing
one OF his undying landscapes in "The
Lady Of the Lake." and the hand OF
time can never efface that immortal
region from the imagination of millions
who have never seen the native land OF
the Wizard OF the North. Some such
feeling OF having received an indelible
impression Of our national capital and
it's better life remains after examining
a copy Of the Washington Evening Star
OF June 80, chronicling its removal into
a new ten-story building erected ex-
pressly TO house a modern newspaper
plant and its crew and belongings.
The Star is very Washingtony. II
prints great gobs and hayricksful Of
telgraphic and foreign news, but its
"main holt" is the home news Of the
great city .at the feet OF it's marble
palace. Here is it's creed: 1.-THE Star
has held 10 the ideal Of newspaper
that could always be taken into the
home, that could be relied upon for hon
esty and accuracy, that respected private
rights, restricted the news field TO its
legitimate bounds, and that kept adver.
tising matter from its editorial columns
and matter unfit to publish from all its
columns"
A rough calculation shows that this
issue Of the Star contains ITO columns
OF reading matter and So Of advertising
The reader gets a chance to browse on
10 3.4 columns of telegraph news, 43 3-4
columns Of local news and socIal re-
port and comments, and this being a
special number, there are fifty columns
OF what may be termed miscellany.
There are three columns Of editorial
] columns Of sporting news, half
column Of chess, and Glory 10 the Stars
and Stripes not word about the Eng.
lish Royal Family or Golf. There are
London and Paris letters, and local
correspondence from Blue Ridge,
Alexandria Cape May, Newport and
other country places. Even the
country.cross. roads places and and out.
lying territory, which in Oregon would
would be described an being in the COW
counties, have representation in the Star.
Its foreign correspondence gives glimpses
Of Spain, Transvaal, Luzon, China, New
Zealand, England and France. This
inventory OF only one Star out OF the
galaxy OF the year must convince any
one that IL is pretty complete newspa.
per that leaves little OF the unknown or
unsaid for it's readers TO learn else.

COST LY.

England has won several important cordingly. Butler telegraphs further that the country ahead of him is clear
 of the foe and that great quantities of
 supplies, including cattle and ammuri-
 tion, have fallen into his hands. The
 Boers have, however, succeeded in sav- ing nearly all their big guns. Lord Roberts and his men are no doubt on
 their way to meet the main army of the Boers, and news of fierce snd bloody battle is expected soon. The
 Boers have surprised the world by the brave stand they have made against the flower of England's troops, and though England's triumph is inevitable
 in the end, there may be yet some ter rife fighting and perhaps wearisome de- lays Then too, there is the heavy cost
 of the war and of the big increase of the
 navy. The naval estimates were pre- sented by MT. Goschen few days ago.
 They call for $42, ,0O0, 900 for new battle ships and cruisers, the entire naval ex- pense for the year 19O0-'01 being placed at $150,O00,000. The war estimates have also been presented to the House. They provide for an increase of the establish ment to 430,000 men and a total net ex- penditure of $SO7, 100000, against an es- tablishment of ,S53 men and an ex- penditure of 103O0O,OOO, as originally voted for the current financial year, showing an increase of 245,147 in the number of men and of S204,O00,000 in the money expenditure. The foregoing figures for the current year do not in clude the supplementary estimates of October and February for the present Boer war. They are for the future per- manent establishment of the British army. Added to the naval estimates presented by MT. Goschen few, days ago, they mount up to s450,OOO, 900 for fighting purposes alone.

on the part of the government. It will, at first sight, seem incredible that prices Of daily necessaries of life could be as
 high now as they were in the famine
 time when Manila was besieged by the
 Filipino army on land and blockaded
 by the United States squadron afloat, and was thus absolutely cut off from all
 food supplies. Yet so it is. We are having to pay famine prices, siege prices, starvation prices; and the poor people who cannot pay?
 Meat which used to be twenty cents is now ninety cents and one dollar; eggs, which used to be always under two cents, are now over eight cents; fowls, which used to be a peseta or two, are now peso or two, according to size; fish, which used to be abundant and cheap, is now a high priced rarity, because the fishing industry has been more crippled than any other The sit uation is, indeed, most serious; we do not doubt that the government, having had the question brought to it's notice, will promptly recognize its duty to- wards the people, for whose welfare it is responsible, and will take steps to al- leviate the distress, which is already and which threatens the, country witl1 very grave evils if not speedily alleviated.-Ma Times, Jan, uary 6.

STYLE DROPPING.

The additional drop in Sugar stock s price yesterday was one of the notable
 features of the day in Wall street. Su-
 gar stock broke below 100 for the first time in a long, period and there was
 corresponding consternation among the
 bulls on Sugar and exultation on the
 part of the bears. The question of the
 hour in the street is, will the Sugar
 company reduce or pass it's dividends
 next week? One or the other seems to
 be foreshadowed, although there is an
 alleged willy minority who are confident
 that the report that the company's rev.
 enues are badly hit by competition is
 all blind and that the company has
 another surprise in store for Wall
 street. Between the two views arises
 the wild uncertainty among the inter-
 ested outsiders. One view of the
 case entitled to careful consideration
 is that given by that old reliable jour
 nal, the New York Journal of Com-
 merce, which says concerning the Sugar
 situation: Prices have gone to pieces
 There is no fixed price for refined su-
 gar and the retailers are the only in- terest that is now making a profit
 Sugar is sold even at loss, it is stated,
 by wholesalers and refners. There are two of the rival efinefies-Doscher and the Arbuckles--that sell at net price
 The older ones sell at gross figures, from which discounts are allowed ac- cording to the desirability of the order. The jobbing business is thoroughly de- moralized. The wholesalers buy direct of the refiners. The chaos will con- tinue, it is believed, until the rival re- fneries renew the agreement under which they used to dictate to the trade.
 "The matter has complications, as the sugar situation is interwoven with the coffee situation. When the Arbuckles went into sugar the trust, it will be re- called, sought to punish them by go- ing into coffee. But both sides have got punishment. Consumers meanwhile , have profted from cut prices. The fact seems to be that trusts of all kinds sooner or later find that they cannot engross all the business in any one line, especially if it is a paying busi- ness. Sugar is as good a line for a trust to take hold of as can be imagin- ed but because it pays we'll is teason ! why competitors will and must spring up. Various trusts are already coming to grief. The Flour Trust is among the | latest sufferers. Many of the trusts lack efficient management and must | suffer from that cause after a time"

too. Kansas City has the bulge this l time, and no wonder joy reigns there. But thus early there appears to be
 note of alarm sounded which Kansas City, with it's wonted enterprise, is not slow to consider Report has it that a
 cot to sleep on during the convention will cost $6 a night, and that the keep CTS of the boarding houses and private citizens having spare bedrooms are al ready marking up the prices for con- vention week. in some instances as hlgh as $25 day. That this spirit is abroad in Kansas City is well attested by the towns leading paper, the Journal which utters a cry of warning, coupled with earnest appeal. The Journal calls upon the people to desist, to retraln, from charging exorbitant prices to the conventonites. It appeals to all to be conservative and reasonable in their charges for the honor of the city, and not to defame it by holding up the visitors. The Chicago Inter-Ocean also admonishes Kansas City to go slow. It remarks: If she had ever entertained national gathering of Democrats she would know better than to raise prices. She would lower them. A few Demo- cratic chieftains, representing the Tam many and Panel House elements in the greater cities may sojourn at $G-a-day hotels or consume 5O-cent drinks, but the average delegate, being forewarned of Kansas City's designs upon him, will arrive at the mouth of the TaW prepar- ed to camp out on the Armourdale flats and to supply himself with liquid re- treatments from bottle which he will carry in his hip pocket"
 The Chicago News adds Its voice and says: "The s6-a-night cot and all like inconveniences were tacitly agreed to when the committee selected Kansas City, and everybody interested should accept the prospect In cheerful spirit of resignation"
 Truly, unless these appeals and admo- nitione are needed, some of the delegates will have to borrow money for their re- turn trip, unless a "barrel' is provided by Tammany

suggested by this illustration. In this model black chantilly was used on light tan broadcloth The body was black panne velvet finished with white lace, the collar being of white mousselne Considerable variety appears in the bodices of these lace banded gowns, and apparently there are no set rules for them. But the dress goods is generally of some light shade. and the lace band ing should contrast, so almost always is black. The notion seems likely to hold for some time with exclusive dressers, since 1t is so expensive that there is no danger of 1t becoming ruin ously popular.
 The current showings of summer styes contain many noticeable depart ures. Summer silks of fashionabl sorts are costly product, and the finest from the stylish standpoint are bor- dered sorts, which are in great variety. Many French flannel shirt waists have a white vest let in. The waists run the gamut of bright colors, so the vest detracts somewhat from the shirt waist look, yet the garments are selling fast. Some wash waists go still further. They are supplied with white pique vest and revers. a sailor knot of the pique appearing beneath the revers. Like the others, these are pretty, but admirers of the simplicity~of the shirt waist will have to become well accus- toned to them before they will give them complete endorsement It is indi- cated, however, that this will come in time.
