COLOMBIAN WAR
FEELING CROWS
Liberals Along Frontier
Angered Against the
Castro Family.

WILLEMSTAD, Island of Curacao.
Nov. 10.-Advices received here from Ca
pacho Viejo, dated November 5, say that
the report from President Castro to his
brother. Celestino Castro, at San Cristo-
bal, to the effect that the United States
Government insists upon medlating be-
tween Venezuela and Colombia" caused
the greatest excitement among the troops
on the frontier. General Uribe-Uribe and
General Modesto Castro Immediately set
out for San Cristobal to obtain details.
1t seems that General Uribe-Urib re-
fused to believe the report, declaring that
he had no fears as to the future of the
Liberal cause, because President Castro
had given him a cast-iron pledge not to
forsake him.
Should President Castro prove untrue
TO the Liberal cause" exclaimed General
Uribe-Uribe, 1.-The result would be his
ruin. The war will end in Colombia be-
fore Christmas"

Castro family among the Colombian LIB

The cause of the resignation was disa-

ORANGE CROP SMALLER
THAN THAT OF LAST YEAR
Estimates in Southern California
Show Decrease, but Fine Quality
Is Promised.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 10.-Careful and
conservative estimates of the orange crop
of Southern California for the season 1901
0a indicate that it will be from 10 to 20
per cent less than that of last year. but
with normal climatic conditions, the fruit
will be of excellent quality.
There is the usual variance In these es-
Inmates, however, an optimistic view from
Riverside County being that the crop will
exceed that of last season. In the Red
lands district it is thought the decrease
will be from 10 to 20 per cent. The ter
ritories of Pomona. Ontario. Azusa and
Covina indicate a deficit of nearly one
third, while some of the growers in the
vicinity of Ontario are of the opinion that
their yield will not be more than half OF
what it was last season. In Orange
County it is said there will be decrease
of about % per cent as compared with the
previous crop, while San Diego Ceunty's $
Shipments will equal those Of last year

NIGHT AMONG WHARF CATS.
When Darkness Comes There Is Much
Noise and Many Battles Along
the Water Front.

1t is astonishing how many outcasts
of the feline family inhabit the
wharves bordering on the harbor basin
of Baltimore, says the Sun of that city.
Along every line of docks on the wa
ter front band of cats. both large and
small, have adopted the surroundings
as their homes, and nightly come forth
to wage war upon the venturesome
tom of an adjoining clan who has i'm
prudently ventured into the enemy's
country.
The cats rarely venture from their
lairs during daylight, but at nightfall,
when traffic is suspended, the water
fronts are alive with the fitting forms
and the air is resonant with the voicing
of their seemingly numerous troubles.
Men whose business takes them
along the water front Mt night tell
many stories of feline battles. One of
the most characteristic is of two cats
approaching a rat, each unknown to
the other, and springing upon it at the
same time. The rat escapes and the
cats fight until one falls dead and the
other limps away.
Another story illustrates the adept
ness of cats in water. The overturning
of loose board throws three kittens
and their parents into the dock. The
mother swims to safety with one kit
ten on her back and another in her
mouth. The father follows with the
third kitten in his mouth.

FANCIES OF THE FASHIONABLE
Kew Features of the Seasons Waists
and GOwns-A Cape and Jacket
Combination.

White waists for women are made
sign has the upper part of the front
of the bodice laid in fine tucks, about
dozen on each side. These are car
ried well down over the bust. The
back is plain. The sleeves button
around the arm with three brass
buttons set well apart, and finished
at the wrist with a narrow cuff, bare
~ an inch in width, simply stitched
once on the edge and turned back.
With these waists are worn turn
down collars, with some neat tie.
The buttons of the waist are large
and plain gold, says the New York
Times.
Pockets are to be seen on many of
the first wash shirt waists that are
appearing. There is one little round
pocket on the left side, which in
many cases has a flap of white to
match the turned-down white col
lar stitched to the stock, of the same
material as the waist, while there are
similar cuffs on the sleeves.
This is to be another season of
! thin materials for shirt waists, il
these first waists are to be relied
upon, and it is probable that they
are. These waists come, many of
| them, in materials with Madraslike
stripes, but very thin.
A pretty dinner gown, with prin-
! cess back and jacket front, has the
| lai 81 hoo1y ,.a1inr-a1 n
rather original manner. Two ends
of sash of gray silk are fastened
into the armhole seams in the back.
| These are crossed and carried down
to the waist line and pass around
the waist, to be tied in a soft bow in
front. The ends of the sash, which
is of soft silk, are fringed out.
A new cape is combination of
! jacket and shoulder cape. There is
an underpiece of the material which
fits down to the waist line like a
| jacket. There is a similar fitted
piece in front, with ends which tie
once. The cape proper covers the
shoulders and upper part of the arms,
There are no sleeves.
New naH-lengIn COATS are loose,
curving in little at the back and
straight in front. They are cut a
little low at the neck and fasten at
the side.
The few new things in hats show
big flats, the crown low and round
and the rather wide brim filed in
with soft folds of silk, plain or in
some fancy design, and frequently
covered with chiffon. Pretty heavy
rough straws are to be seen in many
of these hats. Some French models
show the hats of some kind of heavy
corded silk
