Lieut.. Hobson of Santiago fame has
finally recovered his health sufficiently
to leave the Presbyterian hospital in
New York, where he lay i'll of typhoid
fever for nearly two months. He was
attacked by the malady shortly after his
return from the Philippine Islands, in the
autumn, and has had one of the hardest
battles of his life in the interim. Hob
sons exploit in sinking the Merrimac in
the channel Of Santiago harbor was the
most brilliant act of individual daring
in the Spanish war. 1t will take perma-
nent rank with the daring exploits of
Gushing, Somers, Decatur and other
American sea heroes. The fact that the
Merrimac did not block the channel, and
the further fact that HobsOn and his
brave companions all escaped finally
with their lives should detract nothing
from the glory of the deed.

PILLS OF FASHION.

Variations in children's gowns bios
som out from time to time. even though
they are very slight. and small girls
rival their mothers In their ambition
to keep up to date
Soft wool materials make up very
pretttly in this way. In figured French
flannel the collar may be made of the
same and trimmed with rows of narrow
braid or velvet ribbon. Skirts of the
small gowns are usually plain, but the
older girls have some sort Of trimming,
either tucks. stitched bands, ruffles or
velvet folds, stitched on.
The long-waisted mode, in which the
waist line rounds down low in front,
Is conspicuously evident among the
gowns for girls over 10 years of age,
and the small gowns for dainty little
girls Of initiate this fashion as much
as possible by having the long waist
all around. Guimpe dresses, which
never seem to 60 out of style, are suit
able for all ages. from s to the more
mature years Of middle age.
Bolero jackets are very popular in
the kingdom of small costumes, and the
attempt to produce the effect of stole
ends is seen in one little gown, where
narrow lace revers are carried down the
entire length Of the front, as shown In
the illustration. Another pretty effect
Is made by two box plaits in front, one
at either side from the yoke to the
hem, and two in the back, giving a
long effect to the waist, which is de-
fined with a narrow velvet belt ending
in small velvet rosettes at either side
of the front ON the plaits. The skirt
gathers on to the waist between the
plaits, which apparently are a contin-
uation of those in the waist. A sailor
collar of lace covers the shoulders in
the back and opens in front over q
yoke of tucked white silk or batiste.
Thin gowns of point d'esprit for party
wear are variously trimmed with
ruches, ruffles, lace insertion and rows
Of colored satin ribbon. A pretty feat
ure of the small girls costume is the
coat and hat to match.-New York

CAUSES SURPRISE.

Connocticut Man Declares His Assess.
msnt II Much Too Low.
Robert NJ Bruce. one Of the mill
lionaires Of CT eenwich, Conn, former
cotton broker and a friend of E. G.
Benedict, has caused surprise by ap-
pearing before the board Of assessors
Of the town and asking them to have
his assessment raised so per cent, says
tho New York Sun. He said that he
had never paid any attention to the
making ont of his list Of taxable prop
erty. leaving it with the assessors. He
had looked the matter up recently and
that he should into the town treasury
and he asked for the raise. The asses
sors promised to comply with his
wishes ard it Is understood that they
will raise the taxes of all other mil
lionaires there to some extent. Mr..
Bruce's example is the subject Of much
comment. For many years past Green
wich has raised $4,000 by taxation,
and has spent $4,000 more than It
raised. The debt has rolled up to
nearly, 100000. The town appointed
an investigating committee and the
members reported that more money
must b ra;~ed by taxation. Fixing up
the taxes last fall. was put over until
next spring. The assessors figured up
he amount ct taxable property and an
Increase Of the tax rate seemed prob
lble. Persons who have looked up the
matter say that there appears to be
one law for the poor man and another
sor the rich man. The law says that
Zach property owner must put in .
true list Of the real value of all prop
erty, real and personal, but the general
rule among persons OF moderate means
has been to pay on 60 per, cent Of ahs
value. The -millionaires in some in,
stances, have not paid on 10 per cent OF
he property

ON A sNowBoUND TRAIN.
Actor ThaIberg's story of One of
His American Adventures.

Chicago Chronicle.
Mr.. Thalberg, the noted Danish actor
who is now in London, tells capital
story of blizzard in the United States,
when he was travelling through the wide
stretching. dreary plains of Nebraska.
He was awakened one night in the sleep
ing ear by cold flakes of snow drifting
through the double windows and the
train was at a standstill. A terrific bliz-
zard was blowing from the north. and
in the morning the passengers realized
the fact that they were snowbound. One
desolate frame house could be seen in
the distance. There was no dining car
on the train. Everybody felt very hungry
At midday an idea occurred to one of
the famished actors. There were a num-
Der Of beautiful prize chickens in the
front car of the train. The famished actor
pressed three of his comrades and a
quiet but determined little American
into the service; fully armed. they dis
appeared together. and If the rightfuI
owner of the prize chickens could have
seen what happened next IL would have
made him very sad-or savagei
When the unfortunate chickens were
killed and plucked another difficulty arose
How were they to be cooked? The four
actors and the small American again
volunteered their services. with arms
linked together, every man grasping a
bird in each hand, they left the train
and fought their way through the deep
drifts of snow toward the one desolate
dwelling. Here they borrowed a great
zinc pan; the actors cast in the prey and
the little American stirred up the fire
in the stove and became chief chef. When
the zinc pan. with It's kissing chicken
stew. was carried back to the train the
five Adventures were greeted with cheers
by their fellow passengers. A hungry
commercial traveler-the stoutest man
in the car--sezed the pan and attempted
to get his share. even before the ladies
had been served. Then the little Ameri-
can coolly drew a revolver out OF his
hip pocket and held Il over the chicken
stew sir after u.s." was all he said,
and the commercial traveller had to be
content at last with couple of wish
bones.
