Very dainty and pretty effects are
devised by the modistes in finishing the
tops of sleeves of gowns already in
preparation for the summer season. the
shape below the shoulder being. with
out exception, plain, trim, and eN-
ccedingly close. Gowns of net. lace,
chiffon. etc, have narrow tucks, alter
mating with bands of insertion, or they
are shirred round and round the arm
spirally. or trimmed with folds and odd
y placed designs in lace applique. In
every case. however, the sleeve is a
small one, simple in effect, and one
with which most women are now great
~ pleased.

We ask especial attention from Re-
publicans to the article, on his page, re-
printed from the Morning News of
March Is, 1899. In this editorial article
She News commits itself, and all the
Anti-Addicksites, to an alliance with
; the Democrats for the election of a
United States fpn7essi,ygTe eoh ohrEe been
warning the RRsse-Gei. ~, aa-.-
OF the danger of just this kind OF an al
lame to cheat them out of the election
of United States Senators at the next
session of the Legislature of this State.
Here is proof that such an alliance is
not only possible, but that it has been
proposed and advertised in the chief
Anti-Addicks ersan OF the State.
Another alliance OF the same kind is at
i4e bottom OF the Anti.Aldickste re-
iusal to accept the Union Republican
proposition for Republican harmony.

no News nt wn.hington.

Washington, May 30.-Not word has
been received at the state or navy de-
partmentS from any of the officials in
China since the report from Minister
Congcr. Communication by cable is still
open, so it is assumed by the officials
here that there has been no sensible
change in the situation, or, at any rate,
none affecting American interests. In
fact, these interests have so far not been
directly attacked during the present M
rising by the "BoXcrs," and state depart
mcnt officials direct attention to the fact
that up to this time the massacres have
been confined to the native Christians.
Not a single American citizen has been
killed so far as is known. If the situation
were to continue on this basis, it might
be difficult to find ground for such arbi-
trary action as the landing of United
States marines in the Chinese capital.
but Mr.. Conger's reports so clearly indi-
cate the apprehension that the develop
ment of the BOXERS" uprising would in
volve the jeopardy of American life and
property that the state department could
no longer neglect his warning; hence the
dispatch of marines to Picking.
