CAPT. LEMLY,S TRIP.
Will Inspect improvements of til
Boston Naval Prison.

Boston Naval Prison.
Capt. Lemly, judge advocate general Of
the navy, has gone to Boston to inspect the
naval prison there. Owing to the growth
and activity of the navy OF late years, there
has been large increase in the number OF
prisoners, and as there has been no enlarge
ment OF the prisons they are much over
crowded. This has necessltafed the confine-
ment Of convicted men in II guard houses
OF local yards, and also the fitting up of the
old ship Southery as a temporary prison
ship, anchored of Norf DIX, va. At present
there are about 50 prisoners at Boston 30 at
Mare Island, 40 on the Southery and 20 at
Cav4te. Except in the matter Of overcrowd-
Ing the Boston prison is regarded as
model. One OF the innovations which has
recommended itself to prison experts is the
abolition Of the old walled cells and the
substitution of steel lattice. partitions. BY
this means the entire interior of the cells
is opened to the eye of one guarzl. 1t is now
intended to spend s25 600 on an enlargement
of the Boston prison, and Capt. Lemiy will
look after the details of the enlargement.
During his absence Solicitor Hanna will
act as judge advocate general.

Bryan State Movement.

Special Dispatch TO The Evening star
COLUMBUS, Ohio July 15.-Democrats
here are annoyed by the publication of
special from Cleveland stating that at
meeting OF a number of Bryan democrats
there yesterday it was decided to issue a
call for a meeting of democrats of their
way of thinking to meet here on July 81

of a party in harmony with the Kansas
City platform and the nomination Of a
state ticket. The names are not given, but
it is said that Hugos Preyors of Cleveland

nection with the movement leads demo-
Gratis here to suspect that General Dick is
the real instigator of the movement the
object being to split off section of the
free silver men from the support of the
regular democratic ticket. Preyor Is am
old-time populist, but was accused several
wears ago of acting as Dicks agent in
pushing populist state convention, and a
check sent by Dick payable to Preyor was
secured at the time of the convention and
published in fac-simile all over the state
as evidence that Preyor was acting
Lick's agent. General Dick never denied IL.

The Low Cut Neck.

has become a feature of the summer
outdoor gowns. 1t suits the long, slen-
der American neck far less well than
the smooth, plump throat of the typical
Frenchwomen. Besides, any yellow
Ing Of the throat through exposure will
be far more obvious. These consid-
erations doubtless account for the cool
welcome afforded a certainly comforta~
bic style. But this year the low Golf
fure makes the wearing Of a high col
lar well nigh impossible. Parisiennes
are dressing their hair in loops and
curls right down in the nape of the
neck. If they wear a collar at all, it is
a mere band of fimsy hemstitched
grass lawn, muslin or fine batiste.
They will be welcomed by the many
who find the high stiff band of linen
a veritable instrument of torture in
hot weather and who object to the sub
%stitution of a lace tie as not sufficiently
protecting the delicate skin Of the
throat from the suns rays.
