Of the Fifty sixth congress, a tall,
gaunt mon shambling of gait, with

ful influence for good in connection
with evangelical and temperance
work Her voice is a rich, deep con-
tralto At the age of seventeen she
was brought out as a concert singer
in Portland Me. by Annie Louise
Cary. Her singing then showed great
promise, and her friends urged her
to make the operate stage her aim.
Her family discouraged this, however,
and Miss Long took up concert sing
ing. in which she has been very sue
cessful.

COUNTESS cASTELLANE.
She Perfumes Her Luggage With
Cloth Sixteen Dollars Per Yard.

The Countess de Castellane, who is
said to out-Paris parisians in her ex-
penditures for perfumes, has carried
an idea of perfumery into fan
full extreme. The sixteen four
story trunks which accompanied the
Countess on her recent visit to New
York were lined with perfumed fan
mel, and through the gowns and lin
gerie were scented amulets stamped
with the Castellane crest. Eastern
chemists have preared similar per-
fumed flannel at SD to SIG yard.
An order for thirty yards from a fash
ionable waman is not unusual Clos
cts, cedar chests, hat boxes and every
compartment containing dainty toilet
belongings are lined with it, and
every where the pungent amulets are
scattered lavishly. While violets con-
tinue the distinctive perfume of the
ultra-faShionahle, the Duchess of
Marlborough has created a vogue for
jasmine in London which has been
taken up by certain women in the
East.

HER LIFE VOCATION.
She viii Sing Gospel Songs for Re.

Miss Ruth Cords Long, niece of
Secretary of the Navy John d. Long,
has chosen as her vocation in life
gospel singing. Her work in this line,
in connection with recent revival SER
vices at a Worcester, Mass, church,
confirmed her inclination toward this
calling, which has dated back two
years. She visited Washington last
winter and by invitation sang several
selections before President and Mrs.
Mckinley Personally Miss Long is

Bicentenary Of the Sweet Pea.

The sweet pea is said to have an in.
ternational bicentenary celebration
this year 1t was introduced into Brit.
lsh gardens from its home in Eastern
Europe just 200 years ago. The iiue
blooms and extensive range of color
ings which are now obtained are, how.
ever, of comparatively recent date
having been produced during the last
quarter Of century OF so by the ef
forts Of growers like the Shropshire
firm Of Eckford and the American

USE FOR CORN HUSKS.
They Are Shredded and Then Made
Into Mattresses.

Prodigal sons of to-day would have
a tough time feeding on corn husks,
but Michael Young, a bright fellow,
has made it possible for some farmers
to pay the rent of their land in the
food which the young man in the par.
able shared with the swine. Had he
lived in Bureau County, illinois, he
could have eaten all he desired and
sold the remainder for 81 a ton.
A few years ago Young, who was
in business at Arlington, began buy
ing corn husks from the neighboring
farmers. He erected a single building,
in which he set up some machinery
with which the hu3ks were shredded.
The manufactul ed product found
ready market for mattresses. An
other building was added, and then
the third and fourth, until now there
is a row of them standing back from
the track. Corn husks from all parts
of Bureau and Henry Counties are
brought in by the ton and disposed
of to the manufacturer, who wishes he
had 10 times the quantity within
reach
After the corn is husked the farmer
clips the husk from the stalk with
pair of shears. After the husks are
put through the ms chimes the product
is baled and shipped away by the car
load.

be sunk and work conducted in sys-

longing to the same campany, will also
be started and worked with the same
energy and vigor as the Little Wonder.
They are both good properties, and

to put in place, when active operations
will commence with twenty stamps.
There is no doubt that the Mt. Jeffer-

Dear Sir: have just returned from
the -- school. 1 vaccinated nine
teen of the school children. 1 did this
at the request of the board of trustees
and they informed me that would be
paid out of the school fund. Two chill
dren paid, leaving seventeen unpaid.
The parents probably could all pay,
and they told me that if it was not
paid out of the school fund they would
pay individually, and it rests at that.
My bill is SIT so far and there may
be few more to be vaccinated.
Now, I would like for you to inform
me whether the directors are correct
in their construction of the law in
reference to the cost of the vaccina-
tion. Also, please inform me to whom
1 shall hand my certificates showing
that the children have been vaccin-
ated. If the pay comes out of the

Bankruptcy of George Newman.
Yours respectfully,
GEO. a. GORDON.

After George Newman, formerly a
merchant of Jackson, was adjudicated
a bankrupt by the U. S. District Court
upon the petition of his creditors, the
Trustee in Bankruptcy came to Jack
son with the attorneys for the credi.
tors and had Mr.. Newman and several
witnesses examined before J. W. Cald-
well, the Referee in Bankruptcy of this
county, as to the conduct and business
dealings of Mr.. Newman, for some
months previous to the failure. At
the close of the examination, the Ref
cree made an order that the bankrupt
pay to the Trustee, for the creditors,
$500 in money and turn over $500
worth OF merchandise or its equivalent,
upon the ground that Newman had
not satisfactorily accounted for the
same. Upon Newman's failure to com
ply with the order, a subpoena was
issued out of the Court commanding
Newman to appear and show cause
why he should not be committed for
contempt for disobedience of the order.
Newman appeared and answered that
ne had turned over everything that he
had to his creditors, and had secreted
or concealed nothing. The matter has
been before the Court for several
months and was concluded on last Sat-
urday by Judge DeHaven discharging
the order and purging the respondent
of any contempt.
The creditors made a bitter and
stubborn fight, but were defeated.
Fred L. Stewart appeared for Geo.
Newman, and the creditors were rep
resented by city attorneys.
