This IS a very simple little affair. much
beloved and advertised Of dressmakers.
Then there is an arrangement to keep
the shirt waist taut in the back though
the skies fall Not even the most depray-
ed Of garments could root up and make
its owner ridiculous in the eyes OF the
populace when this affair is worn.
Next in order come the devices that are
designed to be worn under ribbon or ties
around the neck. These are OF all sorts
OF material from aluminium to wire, from
canvas to India linen, and are OF varying
degrees of merit The woman with the
short neck and the woman with the long
one may, however. be suited here. 50

When December's SHOWS fall fast,
Marry, and true love will last.

TITLE FOR MRS. RONALDS.
Gazetted an Honorable Lady of Grac,

Gazetted an Honorable Lady of Grace, Order of St. John of Jerusalem. Bridgeport, July S.-Mrs. Ronalds, wife of Peter Lorillard Ronalds, of "Newtown Castle" fame has been ga-
 zetted as an Honorable Lady of Grace,
 of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem.
 Mrs Ronalds has been separated from her husband thirty years and lives in
 England. She was one of those who raised funds for the hospital ship Maine which was bought and equipped for use of the British in the Boer war She was Mary Frances Carter, of Bos- ton, and she married MT. Ronalds in 1859
 The Order of the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem was revived in England in 1880 for the purpose of performing ambulance and similar charitable work. In 1888 it received a royal charter of incorporation, when Queen Victoria be- came it's sovereign head, with King Ed ward, then Prince of Wales, as Grand Prior. According to the latest roll, it's membership consists of fifty-seven Knights of Justice, thirty-nine Ladies of Justice, twenty Chaplains, 139 Knights of Grace, sixty-nine Ladies of Grace and forty-three Esquires.
 Several royal princes are among the Knights of Justice, and Queen Aexan- dra, the Dowager Empress Frederick, other English prncesses and the queens of Sweden and Greece are among the Ladies of Justice.

STREET PAVING COMMISSION.

Organized Yesterday-The Mayor Off, fers a Few Suggestions.
 The street paving commission of the city authorized by the last legislature
 met yesterday noon for organization.
 Max Adler was chosen president and
 Ernest c. Simpson clerk. The latter
 position pays $500 per year, and Joseph
 R. Manning was a candidate for the place as he was the framer of the measure creating the commission. He and his friends expected his election as reward of merit, but he failed to get 1t.
 Mayor Studley appeared before the commissioners and offered a few sug- gestions. The mayor told the commis- sioners that he hoped they would find out exactly what are the powers given them by the charter. He wished par ticularly that they would ascertain to what extent they are permitted to di- rect the laying of pavements now in process of construction. He said that it was his belief that the best interests of the city have not been served in some of the contracts given out in re- lation to the time limit for the comple- tion of the same. He thought that in a street like Chapel street the contrac- tor should be allowed the shortest time possible in which to do the work, that the job might be gotten out of the way and the street opened again to the pub lie. He suggested that in paving such an important street the contract should specify that night work be done, so that there would be no delay whatever. He recommended that the commission CTS consult the corporation counsel to see just what are their duties in the premises.
 The mayors remarks were not made in criticism of the acts of those who have had to do with paving work in the past, but were made to urge all possi- ble despatch in the future where the public needs demands it.

 Ira D. Main Went to Jail Rather Than
 Pay His Fine.
 Norwich, July 9.-Ira D. Main, the North Stonington farmer who went to jail second time rather than pay a fine for violation of the game law on complaint of his cousin, Lafayette Main, game warden, was recently re- leased from the county jail in this city. He was arrested by Game Warden La fayette Main for fishing in a pond with a set line and resisted arrest On be- ing brought before a justice he was fined $5 for violating the game law and $1 and costs for resisting arrest. His whole bill of fines with costs came to $37 15, He declined to pay, as he had before, although amply able to do so, but claimed that as the arrest was made out of spite he preferred to go to jail and work out his fine at $1 per day.

 Yesterday,

| tSn0re Line BlOCkeu fOT lHTee 1OuES Yesterday.
 | Freight train No. 93, of the New York, New Haven and Hartford rail- road, was wrecked near Clinton about 2:15 o'clock yesterday morning and i blocked both tracks of the Shore Line division for nearly three hours Freight 93 was bound west and when little outside the town of Clinton there was sudden crash and six heav lily loaded cars were thrown over on the east bound track The cars con- tained pig iron and bales of cotton, which were distributed along the track for about a quarter of a mile, causing no end of trouble in cleaning it up.
 The cause of the accident has not been ascertained as yet but one of the trains crew said that 1t was probably due to the dropping of draw bar. Others who saw the accident attributed the cause to a bursting air hose
 The cars were all badly damaged. A wrecker from this city cleared the tracks about o'clock and traffic was resumed
 Three tramps were in one of the cars asleep and were thrown out into the meadows, but were not hurt.
 One brakeman was on top of a car but he jumped to the meadows and escaped without any injury except q few scratches. Some of the pieces of the cars are buried in the meadows.

As Reviewed by the House of Prince X,
 Whitely.
 New York July S.-All news having a direct bearing on stock values and which since the close on Wednesday up to the opening this morning was to hand could be construed as of an un- favorable nature. Freight rate cutting, worse bank statement than generally expected with consequent likely high CT rates for money, crop reports to say the least very much mixed. and cer- tainly considered unfavorable as to the corn croy, as evidenced by the advance in corn, lower London markets and an uncomfortable feeling in financial markets on the continent of Europe were factors enough to cause such de- clines as took place in our market dur ing the day, The belief is, as far as the rate cutting is concerned, 1t began with the smaller lines and that when crops begin to fairly move this trouble will be overcome The unfavorable bank statement has not so far driven money to extreme rates, the latter be- ing for call money to s, London and continental late advices are if anything a little more cheerful The opening was not much balow Wednesdays close, but the market soon became heavy and in it's declines reached many stop or ders There was not at any time much apparent support. Fresh commission house business amounted to next to nothing, and the larger interests did not seem disposed 10 add to their lines The London market on sales from this side closed heavy.
