Miss Fowler was the original "bloomer
girl Of South Jersey. She adopted the re-

costume consists of q close-6tting Jacket,
short skirts, just reaching the knees. and
then pantaloons Of corduroy or cheviot.

DIVIDED IN OPINION
ABOUT QUAIL Law.
Alton Attorneys Discuss Merits of
Recent Enactment by the
Illinois Legislature.

Alton attorneys are divided in their opin.
ions of the effect Of the game law passed
by the recent General Assembly of Illinois
In so far as 1t relates to quail.
Senator ]. ]. Brenholt is Of the opinion
that quail are still protected. Senator Bren-
holt is one Of the leading members Of the
Alton bar. as well as the State Senator from
the Forty-seventh District and President
Pro Tenn. Of the Senate.
Il Think said Senator Brenholt. ''the
law will cover the case II the issue should

Assembly meant to protect the quail and
that partridge. to all intents and purposes.
meant quail. When I was boy we used
to cali them cartridges. and until few
years ago the words were used synonymous-
ly. For that reason. I think, 1t would be
unwise for hunter to kill quail"
Attorney j. v. e. Marsh took an opposite
view Of the statute as revised.
The Legislature undoubtedly made q Sc
rious blunder in enacting the game law
for the quail. The suggestion that game Is
the property Of the State affords no relief.
II is only State property for the purpose of
regulating its disposition after being killed
or captured"

The American College of Sciences Of PIN.
adelphia, Pa. II novel institution It is
chartered under State laws. with a capital
Of 100000. for the purpose Of teaching Per
sonal Magnetism, Hypnotism. Magnetic
Healing. ETC., by correspondence.
AZ m expense of over 5000 the college
has issued a remarkable work on these
sciences. 10000 copies OF which will be given
away absolutely free. The book is elegant
~ illustrated with the most expensive en-
cravings. and It Is decidedly the finest and
most comprehensive work OF its kind ever
published. II Is the product Of the COM
bined talent OF thirty distinguished hyp-
notic specialists and scientists. 1t thor
oughly explains all the hidden secrets Of
Personal Magnetism. Hypnetism. Magnetic
Healing. etc. II is fun OF surprising expert
snces and makes many startling disclosures
In regard to the use and possibilities Of
this secret power.
The college absolutely guarantees that
any ono can learn these sciences in a few
days at home, and use the power without
the knowledge OF his most Intimate friends.
The reporter asked for the names and
addresses Of some OF the pupils so that he
might communicate with them personally
the reporter selected eighty-four. Tho re-
plies received are more than sufficient to
convince the most skeptical in regard to the
wonderful benefits to be derived from this
mighty power. There were absolutely no
failures. All had learned to make practi-
cal use Of the sciences. The following ex-
tracts are taken 1t random from the letters
for the benef1t OF readers:

Crosse. Wis. writes: "Hypnotism truly re-
veals the secrets Of life and the mysteries
Of nature. My own father could not have
convinced me OF its wonderful power If I
had not actually tested II for myself. I
consider knowledge Of 1t Invaluable to
those who wish to get the most out OF life:
to those who wish to achieve success and
five up to the full measures OF their posi-
hilities"
Mrs Efne NJ Watson. MartinsvilSG Ind,
writes: ''Hypnotism opens the road 20
health. happiness and prosperity. 1t should
be studied by every one. I would not part
with my knowledge OF It for any amount.
The instructions have developed within me
q force of character. an ability to influence

tism taught by the American College OF

The Schley board OF inquiry has
made its reporter rather two re-
ports. The majority report severe
ly condemns Schley; while the minor
ity report by Admiral Dewey alone,
commends him in the main. As a
matter of fact searching inquiry
into the acts of any commander in
important engagements would find
mistakes, simply because that is a
failing of humanity. AS another
matter of fact the American feet rs
worked and commanded won II
grand victory. Schley was part of
it. How many mistakes did Cervera
and his men make? Every engage
ment has it's mistakes on both sides,
as did this. Schley should receiye
his full measure OF credit for the
grand victory, regardless OF mis-
takes OF even important details.

of Hon. Coe 1. Crawford, seems to
affect the temper of our democratic
friends. 1t is purely a family affair
OF the other fellows, and yet they
seem terribly sore and disappointed
over it. Can it be that their only
hope lies in a factional fight among
republicans? Have they no princi-
Piles or questions OF merit to present
to the voters? Has the party OF re-
form degenerated into sore bri-
gade with recourse to personal at
tacks upon republican leaders in
newspaper articles that no one has
the manhood to sign? Such war
fare has been long since discounte-
nanced by all decent people.
