MODES FOR WOMEN.

The new shades of green. camel's hair, faced cloth, and Venetian, for winter costumes, are combined with various handsome furs, and look re- markedly well with nearly every sort. They are extremely smart and attrac- tive, with back fox and black silk em- broideries en applique, or, with black Persian lamb-loolling brighter and richer by contrast. They also combine very elegantly with mink or sealsl<in and are in equally good taste with trimmings of beaver or lynx.

VALUE OF STREET FRANCHISES

An illustration that throws a side light upon street franchises comes from Baltimore. In the early days of the street railways it was provided that a percentage of the gross income should go to the support of public parks. For some time there has been an effort 10 get the park accounts into print and in the Baltimore papers of yesterday sev
 eral columns were given of the figures. It was shown that the income ot the park department last year was $296.- 594.I3 and of this total S2S5. .41O.3S came from the nine per cent tax upon the gross earnings of the street railway companies. In other words. these com panies supported the whole park sys- tenn of the city and at the same time made money while giving their patrons free transfers.-Philadelp Times.

given by the ladies of the Luth-

was funny and netted them a
nice little sum in cash. 1t was
worth quarter to see them in
their toggery. Not the least
amusing feature was that of
big piece Of apparatus by which
the most unpromising material
could be put in, and when the
door was closed, above the whir
of rapidly revolving machinery
could be heard hair raising
screams. In few moments all
would be quiet, the door opened,
and out would step most beauti-

had dog for which she had such
an attachment that she couldn't
be persuaded to be "done over"
without taking her dog along. 1t
worked all right so far as the old
maid was concerned; but when the
blooming damsel emerged 1rom
the cage, she had about a dozen
yards of sausage hanging on her
arm-all that was left of the dog
and she stepped to thefront of the
stage and with fearful eyes sang

newspaper women in the state, we
copy the following in reference to
a pleasant social function in Nc
Connellsburg:
"Mrs. G. E. Dunlap and the ed
itor of The Chronicle had the
pleasure of attending very novel
reception in McConnellsburg on
Wednesday evening of this week.
1t was the thirteenth anniversary
of the marriage of ex-senator and
Mrs. w. Scott Alexander, and the
number 13 figures very largely in
their lives, as will be seen by the
following: They were both born
on March 10, were married on
March ID, and this is their 18th
anniversary. There is a differ
ence of just 13 years in their ages,
Mr.. Alexander being 3 times 13
and Mrs. Alexander 2 times 13 at
the time of their marriage. De-
spite all these thirteens they have
had an unusual share of good luck
and their thirteeth anniversary
with five times thirteen guests
found them enjoying good health,
happiness and prosperity. A
large number of guests present
were delight ully entertained" "
