The convention tomorrow will be an
convention ever held in the midst of
the Pacific. 1t is the distinct mark of
our Americanization, and will put us
into touch with the party on the Main
land. By the way, the Democrats have

The last of the army horses for Ma

Soldiers on stills.

Improbable as it may seem, the
French army has lately been making
experiments with view of testing the
value of silt walking. The result ap-
pears TO be, according to The Leisure
Hour, such as to render their adoption
by the French army for special pur-
poses highly probable. They are found
TO be seryiceable not only in placing
telegraph wires in very rough country,
but also as a means of quickly ascer-
tanning where a river can be safely
forded by troops. The silt man, by
the aid of his heightened legs, can
measure the depth of the water with
great ease and precision. He can feel
about the shallow places and thus lead
the way. A few soldiers expert in the
use of stills might have been of service
to our commanders in South Africa,
where the watercourses are strategical
obstacles of great advantage to the en-
my.-Westminster Gazette.

The Latest In Trimmings.

Much of the effect from small tassels
as dress trimmings depends upon their
being heavy enough to vibrate from
their own weight. a tassel of fine silk
has not body enough to do this. Hence
the knowing choose such ornaments
when made from heavy silk cord,
There will be number of new garni-
lures in the way Of embroideries, and
buttons will also be extremely popular.
Skirts are being trimmed with two
rows of buttons down the front. The
two rows extend directly down the
middle of the front, and for this pur-
pose small but very expensive buttons
are employed. They are of gold, beau
tifully set with mock gems of blue and
red and green 10 initiate turquoise, the
emerald and the ruby Some Of these
buttons cost s. each and frequently
s. each.
FoulardS are going to be more pop
ular than even last season Blue has
hitherto been the chief favoilte, but
now all colors are distinctly in vogue.
Blues will however, retain much OF
their former favor and will appear
with white embellishments. Black
and white, with a touch of color, will
also he much worn.
Boigcs and light browns viii have n
great rage for street wear in spring.

1t so happened one night when the old
ghost went to sleep and was snoring

The names OF these three animals were
Pig. Rooster and Bantam Cock. They
did not look as they do now. but the
pig had straight tail and pointed
nose: the rooster had bill like q duck.
and the bantam cock had three legs.
