Crochet and Laces.

Once again coarse cotton crochet has
come into favor, and a delightful addi-
ton it makes to the borders Of sheets,
toilet covers, tablecloths and the like.
And crochet insertions and edgings do
charming service as trimmings for
summer blouses, cotton gowns and chill
dren's washing frocks.
Nowadays. when lace collecting may
be counted as a fashionable luxury, a
Golfer for storing the fragile treasures
is an essential and, with a delicately
embroidered cover, makes a charming
ornament for the boudoir.

The Princess Muslin Gown.

A good way Of making a muslin
gown is unIined and worn over prin-
cess dress of white glace silk, fastening
down the back. Such princess dress
may, of course, do duty under several
muslin gowns, and the simplest way OF
making these is with a yoke OF lace,
a slightly gathered bodice, a belt or
glace and a skirt with tucks on the
straight founce.

Germany apparently has not that
success with her African colonies that
was expected by the friends of col.
onlal policy. West Africa is barren
lountry which can only be prosperous
by irrigation. East Africa, though
flch' is suffering uAler mismanage-

British Zanzibar. In both east and
west the natives are revolving without
The Germans being able to suppress
the disturbances or to establish per-
manently their authority. Crueltics
such as never were permitted against
the Indians in the early days of Ameri-
can history are the order of the day.
OF late the conditions. especially in
West Africa, seem to have taken a
very serious turn. Attempts were made
to enlist British subjects from the
neighboring colonies for the German
colonial guard, but the Britons do not
seem to be willing to do Germany's
Woodwork. AS result considerable
number of troops will be sent from
the fatherland to the revolving colon
les.

Bright's Disease is more dreaded
by physicians than any of the serious
disorders with which they have to
deal because of its insidious and ma
lignant character. If prompt action
were taken when headaches, urinary
disorders, digestive troubles first ap-
pear, much suffering and sorrow
would be averred. Prickly Ash Bit
tiers will quickly stop the spread of
the disease, quiet the inflammation,
heal the ; kidneys and bladder,
strengthen and regulate the liver, and
drive poisons and impurities out of
the system.

Blodgett ct al. Seek Redress Through
the Courts.
The long impending fight of the
syndicate landowners versus Greene
county to contest the payment of their
taxes at the assessment as it stands
raised by the board of supervisors, was
initiated on the Gath Of January,
when they filed bill in chanceryss al-
legi lg many very questionable things
and praying that the tax collector be
lujuncted fsem collecting any taxes
above amount same would be figured
on the assessment tLey had given in,
until court conld decide on the legal
ity OF further payment. Bond was
given and approved and writ of in
junction served on the tax collector
On Decem Der 14th John Vogel, their
agent, had rendered the tax collector
the amount of their taxes figured on
that basis, but 1t wac refused, where
upon said landowners petitioned the
board to accept same as payment in
full for their taxes for 1900. This in
its turn was refused, and then the
wheels for contesting began to turn.
The tender was again made the tax
collector when the bill was filed and
was this time by him received.
Thus the matter now stands. or
course the county will make vigor-
GUS defense 1t rests with the court
to decide whether the county be sus-
tanned or that the complainants be al
lowed relief prayed for. II they are
successful in this suit Greene county
may at once prepare for multiplicity
of suits, for all those VINO have paid
| their taxes at the assess m ,nt as raised
will at once shove in claims for re-
covery of amounts wrongfully paid ;
for this reason the defense sac uld be
all the more strenuously made. All
the nonresident and resident land
holders ex .ept D. A. Bloigett, Cha.
T. Hills, g. NJ Luce and l.. N. Dant-
zler Lumber Company compliments
have paid and that without protest.
This is one point against the CON
