Mrs. Langtry has set the style it h
likely that there will soon be . raid on
American millinery counters for these
particular hats.
There is something de1iciously
charming about hat of this style.
It is so distinctly feminine and its
waving brim can give an air. OF CO.
quetry to even the most uncoquettish
face. Correctly, it should be worn
with a dimity or organdie gown OF
many ruffles, with silk mitts-which
are quite the vogue-and vita a para
sol that is fluff of chiffon ana foam
of founces or great big slapdash
boquet of real lace.
Probably no style Of hat is 50 becom-
ing to all ages and all types OF women
as the leghorn. It is pretty on tho
petite girl with her fluffy pigtails tied
with ribbons. It is picturesque and
lovely on the large girl-the Mrs.
Langtry type, for instance.
Even on elderly danes it is not en-
tirely out of place, and everyone
knows how cunningly lovely the leg
horn hat is on babies, its waving, lilt-
ing brim shading kissable curls and
sweet laughing eyes.
All hail the leghorn!
Mrs. Langtry has not tucked It back
in feminine hearts, because. it has
never been out of them, but she has re-
minded womankind Of its perfections,
and for that womankind will be more
than grateful.

SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

Nineteen British children in every
100 are always from school.
Cardinal Martineli is the ninety
ninth archprior of the order of tho
"Barefooted Augustinians," line OF
which runs back to 1865.
The new library at Athens is now
completed. 1t was begun IA years ago
by Prof. Ziller, of Dresden. It has
room for 100000 volumes.
Rev. William Howe, D. D., of Cam
bridge, Mass, now IS years old, is
believed to be the oldest Baptist
clergyman in the country.
The St. Mary's Avenue Christian
church of Parkersburg, w. Va, which
is to be dedicated in the near future,
is to have an upper story with %
windows in it, so arranged that when
open the sides of the structure prac-
tically disappear entirely, leaving
only enough in the walls to support
the roof, with the sides open to every
breeze that blows. The church will
be used partly rs religious club.
Ex-Vassar girls enjoy recalling
when Miss Sousa, the daughter of the
so-called march king, was with them
at college year ago. She played
the piano exactly as her father leads
his band, all his poses and manner
isms being as faithfully reproduced
as if she were "taking him off, in
stead of unconsciously exemplifying
the laws of heredity. 1t was the
great delight of the other girls, when
they had visitors, to get Miss Sousa,
unintroduced, to play the piano, and
then have the visitors exclaim, as
they invariably did: "Why, she re-
minds me of Sousa.''
The first brick Presbyterian church
west of the Missouri river was erect
ed in Nebraska City, Neb., in 1856. It
has been used as house of worship
ever since, but is now in course OF
demolition to make room for new
and modern structure. William Bu-
chanan, who was one of the two
original elders of the church, is still
an active member. In July, 1856, the
steamer Genoa ran into snag two
miles above Nebraska City and sank.
The boat caused sand bar to form
in the river and the course of the
stream was changed. The bell from
the wrecked steamer was placed in
the belfry of the new church and
continued to call the pious to wor-
ship and sinners to repentance till
the church was abandoned.

played out and with box of chew
ing gum she had been peddlng. I
took her to the Harrison street an
mex, and when we got there the
child's father and mother suddenly
appeared and claimed their baby. OF
course they had been hiding in some
adjacent doorway while their little
one worked on the sympathies of
passers-by. I kept the child all night,
and the parents, protesting in vain,
waited for her. But they never again
sent her out to peddle among saloons
or on the streets.
"If truant is reported at the
school headquarters as having gone
to work under the legal age I make
round of stores and find the child.
The affidavit of the parents stating
that the child is IA years old or
older must be forthcoming or send
the little one home in hurry.
''I can generally get the truth out
of the children, and storekeepers are
usually anxious to aid me. / have
known cases where the earnings Of
a child IL or 13 years old were abso-
lutely necessary to the support of q
widowed or invalid mother. l don't
push the law too hard in such cases.
and so long as the affidavit is there
I don't bother them"
Mrs. Owens is nearly 35 years old,
but she looks younger and is en-
thusiastic over her peculiar situa-
ton. She has four children, three
boys and a girl, the eldest of whom
is 1s and the youngest IL. She is
giving them all a good education, and
her housekeeping is done by hired
maid. City officials agree in stating
that, aside from her police work,
she has accomplished great good in
the cause of charity. Every factory
employer, manager and owner of a
store in the business district of Chi
cago knows Mrs. Owens, and she has
made most of them her friends.

WOMAN POLICE SERGEANT.
This Rank, and IL Earning
Her Salary, Too.

Sergeant Mary E. Owens, OF the
Chicago police department., is the only
woman in the world holding such rank
and title, and if she is not good OH
Ger six mayors of that city have failed
to find it out. She is on the regular
police pay roll, wears sergeant's badge
No. 81 and reports daily to Chief Col
leran, of the detectives. Nobody, from
the chief of police down, gives her or
ders. In the language of the street,
"she knows her business" and it is an
open secret that she knows it so well
that she can wear her badge and draw
her salary as long as she likes.
She began her official career in 1889,
says the Chicago Record-Herald, soon
after the death of her husband. The
support of a family of three young
children devolved upon her suddenly,
while she was yet ignorant of any pro-
fession, trade or method of money
making. Her husbands friends
brought enough pressure to bear to
have her chosen one of the five wom-
en- health officers appointed by Mayor
Cregier. She did the rest herself.
When the women were dropped by the
health department Mrs. Owens had
made herself so conspicuously useful
to the police that the elder Carter Har-
rison told Chief McClaughry to ap-
point her patrolwoman, with special
assignment in the sweatshops, depart
ment stores and shopping districts,
where most of the violations of the
child labor and compulsory education
laws were being violated.

Owens, laughing, land it is mean to
say that I am the shoplifting sleuth.' :

Ants a. Mushroom Growers.

The growing of mushrooms" for
food by species of ants is interest
ingly deserted in the American Natur-
alist by Prof. w. M. Wheeler. The
ants first cut leaves into small pieces
and carry them into their under
ground chambers, where they are re-
duced to pulp and deposited in a
heap. In this heap the mycelium of a
species of fungus finds lodging, and
the subterranean conditions favoring
such . result minute swellings are
produced on the vegetable mass.
These are the mushrooms" which
constitute almost the sole food of the
colony of ants that cultivates them.

How the soudanese Telephone.

People often wonder how the atives
in Africa contrive to transmit news
with apparently miraculous rapidity
across miles of bush and desert. The
explanation is simple one. They use
the telephone. The Soudanese tele-
phone is nothing like the one in use in
European countries. 1t is of two kinds
"a hollowed-out elephant tusk OF i'm
mense size, or tam-tam. The tusk can
be made to transmit seven distinct
notes, by means of slice of tree bark
which is placed on the outside of the
tusk at varying distances from the
mouthpiece. By means of this instru.
ment sounds can be heard at dis
tance of several miles, and messages
are frequently transmitted as much as
200 miles in single day by these primi.
tive tslephones.--L4oldon Mail.

THE RUSSIAN COURT IN 1870.
Intrigue, Iniquity and Corruption
Were the Predominant
Features Of 1t.

Baron MalmeSDury, tne EngnSn
ambassador, describes GATHERINGS
private life as growing worse and
worse every day, and the interior of
the court as zone continued scene
of intrigue, debauchery, iniquity and
corruption" says Gentleman's Maga-
zine. When he had been q few
months in Russia he came to the con-
clusion that report had magniied
the eminent qualities and diminished
the foibles of one of the greatest
ladies of Europe"
It was exceedingly difficult to ac-
complish any political business, part
ly because all the Russian ministers
and officials of Importance were very
hostile to England, and partly on ac-
count of their inherent dislike to oc-
cupy themselves with anything but
their own pleasures. The ambassa-
dor writes:
"Although in my public capacity I
have a tolerable degree of patience.
yet it requires more than ever fell
to the share of mortal minister to
converse with people who, in the
midst of business and distress, are
supine and insensible, and who will
neither hear a reasonable question
nor give reasonable answer. You
will not credit me when I tell you
that Count Panin (the prime minis
ter) does not devote more than half
an hour in the "a to business; and
that Mr.. Cakes, having been robbed
of a considerable sum of money,
found the lieutenant de police, the
first magistrate of the empire and
whose power is immense, at seven
o'clock in the morning, playing at Ia
grande patience, with dirty pack
of cards, by himself"
Count Panin employed a good many
hours in unlawful business. He hated
the English ambassador for having
won the goodwill of the empress,
and stopped to the meanest tricks to
thwart and injure him. One of his
devices was to compose letters which
he produced as having been trans
lated from the dispatches of foreign
representatives at the Russian court,
and intercepted at the post Office as
dangerous matter. Harris suffered
greatly from this trick, but it was
impossible to bring the matter home
to the prime minister, and expose his
deceit, as when a request was made
to produce the original dispatches
the answer invariably given was that
the documents, after being copied,
had been forwarded to their destina-
ton. Another disagreeable feature
in the political situation was the uni
versal system of bribery.

rne Oldest Known Timber.

Probably the oldest timber in the
vorld. which has been subjected to the
use Of man, is that found in the an
cient temple of Egypt, in connection
with stone work, which is known to ne
At least 1000 years old. This, the only
wood used in the construction OF the
temple, is in the form OF ties, holding
the end of one stone to another

THE HIDING WHIP-POOR-WILL.
oueer Habits Of the Mournful Noe.
turnal Warbler and His
Relatives.

One of our commonest birds is the
whip-poor-will, yet, though constant
ly heard, he is rarely seen. This is
because he goes abroad only in the
hours of darkness. He does not seek
security there by hiding, but squats
boldly upon log. His plumage is
mottled gray and brown, like old
bark, yet this would not suffice to
conceal him if he sat crosswise, as
birds generally do, SO he sits
lengthwise, and at once falls into the
appearance of a stub of a broken
branch, says Nature. He DISCUSSES
himself as "bump on log" But
some of his relatives in other parts
of the world do even better. Down in
the Antilles there is a goat sucker,
as all of this family are called,
though none really rob the goats of
their milk-which is abroad during
the day, fitting from stump to stump,
for it chooses only to alight upon
dead stumps. The instant it thinks it
self observed it straightens up, stiff
ems every muscle, and becomes to the
eye merely spike or splinter of its
perch. A large Australian relative, the
'4more-pork," does this trick so
well and quickly that you may al
most touch the bird with your cane
in pointing it out to friend, yet the
chances are that he will be unable to
see tin fact, more than one per-
son has placed his hand upon the
'more-pork," perched upon some
fence, without suspecting that it was
anything more than knot. Both
these birds maintain their rigid dis
guises as long as any reason for
alarm remains, and few lose their
lives from hawks.
