ENGLISH IDEA OF AMERICANS.

An English journal answering a sub
scriber's query as to what to wear on q
trip to New York writes;
III ----- wants TO hold her own in
America in the matter Of clothes, she
must take with her only the best modes
made by thoroughly good houses. They

ments on the other side Of the Atlantic.
She will not want full evening dresses
unless she has many introductlons, but
by the end Of May society Is leaving
New York American people do not
wear full evening dress for dinner, eX-
cept on state occasions. They have the
sort Of toilet people adopt on the Riv-
iera, dressy high gowns. Americans are
very CAREFUL Of all the details OF dress
and know exactly where the best
clothes are made and what they should
be.

vINITA WATER.
Artesian Wells There are Taking the
Place Famous--There are Seven.

Postofiice Inspector w. P. Houk
returned last night from visit to
Vinita in his official capacity and
is enthusiastic in speaking of the
artesian wells there. of which
there are seven. He said today:
"Those wells are doing much for
Vinita. Out in the middle of the
square there is big well from
which stream Of water runs away
down the street all the time. 1t
is about four inches deep and the
well from which il comes is as
large as bucket. 1t is a great
thing for that town. for there have
been times in Vinita, and not so
very long ago, that water famines
prevailed until the people were
nearly wild for place to get sup.
plies. They have now seven OF
those wells there, and all OF them
are nearly as big as the one in the
square. The water from them is
as clear as crystal, but il has lit
tie sulphur taste. Outside OF that
il l. hne. Even during those hot
test days up there since the wells
were sunk a person could drink as
much Of that water as they could
hold and there would be no bad
effects. They have riggel up
three bathing pools there now;
one Of them is forty by one hum
dred feet in size and from two and
one bali to six or seven feet deep.
The water comes from depth of
about eight hundred feet.-Fort

WAYFARER'S NOTEBOOK
Blizzard Deals for a DOG

IL was while visiting Smyrna recent
~ that the Wayfarer heard a remark
able deaf made for a rabbit hound by
john Blizzard, the genial proprietor OF
the Smyrna House. Mr.. Blizzard has
a corner on coon dogs and rabbit
hounds, and OWNS about thirty-fve
valuable dogs.
II was one Thursday evening that a
colcred man shambled into the bar
room of the Delaware House and ask
good dog.
Turn him loose and tell me about
him, said Mr.. Blizzard.
"WeM, boss, he's de bes rabbit houn'
dat | hab eber seed. an | raised him
from a pup" said the Old darkey, as
the dog shifted around for something
to eat.
How much do you want for the
dog?" asked Mr. Blizzard.
Five dollars, boss, and | won't take
no less, replied the colOred man.
ITS no use for us to talk" said the
proprietor, for we are too far apart. "
Tho old colOred man HAD dropped to
$3.50 when the dog came from behind
the bar, licking his chops over the first
cracker that he had ever tasted.
The clerk also came from behind the
bar. and. calling the proprietor aside
told him in a voice loud enough for the
colored man to hear, that the dog had
eaten a lot of arsenic, which had been
placed behind the bar for rats, and "a
would be better to get the dog out.
The colored man said, Boss, will he
die?"
"fIe will, indeed, and you must get
him out of here said Mr. Blizzard.
Boss, ies' gimme a half a pint of
gin an keep de dog" said the cOlOred
man.
Wen Old man. as the dog got poi
soned in here. / will have to give you
ihe gin" was the reply.
Thanks, boss, said the owner OF
tho dog. putting the gin in his pocket
and walking out.
The dog was afterward found to be
a poor hunter, and Mr.. Blizzard gave
him away.
