Styles In Summer Wear,

The dominant note of the new fash
ions in respect to light summer
dresses is that the waists are very
simple and the skirts elaborate beyond
words.
Nearly all the new summer waists
are shaped slightly at the left side,
and the skirts are covered with tucks,
insertions, plaitings, ruffies, stitched
bands, and many fiounces.
AS for the new skirts, they are
trimmed with strapped bands, natur-
ally. Is there any place where strap
might with any sort of sense of pro-
priety be made to go that it is not put
these days? The bands are put on the
skirt at regular intervals and extend
from the waist to the knee. Here at
the end of every pointed strap fall
plaits, so that the effect is that of
deep shaped ruffle plated at intervals.
This is a charming model for any sort
of summer dress.
Separate lace waists were never
more popular than they are this sea-
son. The newest seem to be entirely
of guipure, with the whole pattern
overlaid with cretonne flowers out
lined with tiny gold thread.
Bolero jackets are quite as popular
as at any time in their long and tri-
umphant existence, If not more so. A
iaunty model in lovely foulard is
fitted tightly in the back like the waist
OF. a dress In the center, slipped into
band, is large steel buckle, put on
over two tabs, each four inches long.
Louis XVI fichus are as much in
evidence as ever, and it goes without
saying that lace fichus, baby bows,
tiny knots of velvet, and so on, belong
to summer things. The latter are no
| ticed particularly on inons.-Miss de

AN HISTORIC PLACE.
Noted Old Calhoun Home in South
Carolina.

Gath" in The Pittsburg Dispatch:
American public men who exist in ira
dition, felt the list incomplete till /
had come nearer to John G. Calhoun.
So l took the night train at WASH
ington City on the Southern railway
and awoke at Charlotte, N. c., and
then continued on till noon, getting off
at Central Station, five miles from Cal
houn's home at the northwestern end
of South Carolina. Central is Just
half way between Charlotte and At
lanta. At Central hired buggy and
driver and road to Calhoun's house,
called formerly Fort Hill. 1t is now
Clemson college.
There | dismounted at the place
where Calhoun lived from 1924, when
first elected vice president, before
John Quincy Adams was elected presi-
dent. little later, as Adams was chos-
en- by the states in congress, the Sec
ond of the presidents to be elected
without a popular choice. Calhoun
had the electoral majority that year,
and was reelected for the first term
that Jackson would retire at the end
of one term and leave him caliph, or
successor.
From 1924 to his death in 1850 Fort
Hill was Calhoun's legal residence and
mart of the time his real residence. Il
is about the only place in South Caro-
lima where any residence of Calhoun
can now be identified, his former
homes at Abbeville, Bath, ETC., being
now gone or uncertain. Fort Hill is
like Marshallfield for Webster, ASH
land for Clay, Lindenwald for Van
Buren, or the Hermitage for Jackson

vate life.
The road to Calhoun's wound over
the railroad track and the clay and

and two or three wooden churches or

much older than Henry Fielding, 10
whom 1t Is commonly credited. From

All human history attests
That happiness for mantle hungry

Since Eve ate apples, much depends
on dinner.
But Carl Kruger without a stom.

With the possible exception of Alas

either the old or the new owner as In

quently accompanied by elaborate
drawings, he feels he has but to follow
to success a track made clear by his
predecessors. A few months, and the
illusion is dispelled; he has learned TO
distrust all information derived from
Spanish sources.
To illustrate the Spaniard's lack of
accuracy may be cited the case of the
Manila e. Dagupan railroad, some 12O
miles long, the only railroad on the

the line surveyed by it's own engi-

interested, rigid contract was en-.
tered into, and the work was begun.
1t was discovered In many cases that
the engineers reporting the survey
had never been upon the ground-that
the road as laid out was impracticable.
Marshes and quicksands were found
where the drawings indicated solid
ground, and dense jungles existed on
the route where the foot of man had
never trod. Even rivers were there OF
whose existence the engineers were
ignorant. The English company was
Obliged to expend largely in excess of
the estimated amount, and had to face
many grave engineering problems the
Spanish engineers had not dreamed of
while surveying the route from their
comfortable Office in Manila.

To the Fallen.

How sleep the brave who sink to rest
BY all their country's wishes hlest!
When Spring, with dewy fingers cold,
Returns to deck their hallowed mould
She there shall dress a sweeter sod
Than Fancy's feet have ever trod.
By fairy hands their knell is rung,
BY forms unseen their dirge is sung;
There Honor comes, a pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps theil
clay;
And Freedom shall awhile repair
To dwell a weeping hermit there!

the founding of the city of Washing

ment architects. Mrs. Harrison, dur

If the report that has been formu-
lated by the committee appointed by
the last general convention of the
Episcopal church to revise the canons
pertaining to marriage is adopted,
there will be no more marriages of
divorced persons in the Episcopal
church. Further than that, there are
ether restrictions contained in the
canons which the committee reports,
that will forbid many marriages now
recognized and permitted.
A copy of the report of the commit
tee has been forwarded to the priests
and laymen of the Milwaukee diocese
who will go to San Francisco to at
tend the coming session of the gen.
eral convention, or who are entitled
to go, that they may familiarize them
selves with the report and make OBJ
Jections if any they have to make.
The report is signed by all of the
members of the committee save one.
who proposes a minority report to
the extent of making the canons per-
NIT the marriage of innocent parties
IN divorces where adultery is the
charge.
Under the proposed canon it will be
impossible for any member of the
church to marry the widow of his
brother or to marry the mother of his
deceased wife. Neither will one be
permitted to marry his daughter-in
law, nor his former wife's laughter
nor his uncle's widow.
The canons recommend that priests
must be personally acquainted with
the witnesses except in cases where
it is impossible to secure witnesses,
who are known to the priest Then
comes the canon which will shut out
absolutely divorced couples.
Section 4, of canon IA provides:
mo minister shall solemnize a mar
less, nor until by inquiry he shall
have satisfied himself that neither
person has been or is the husband OF
wife of any other person then living
unless the former marriage was an
nUlled by a decree of some civil court
Of competent jurisdiction for cause
existing before such marriage"
1t is believed that the Wisconsin
delegation will support this canon
L. H. Morehouse, who will probably
be at the head of the lay deputies OF
the Milwaukee diocese, favors the new
canon so far as this section is con
cerned. He is not in sympathy with
the present canon which permits the
marriage of the innocent party to a
divorce proceeding.
The following is proposed to be
added to section OF canon Is: THAT
this shall not apply to anyone pro
ducing a certified copy of decree OF
divorce on the ground of adultery, in
which he or she is found to be the
innocent party by court of compe
tent jurisdiction"
Under the new canon, while there
will be no recognition of divorces
marriages may be set aside because
of grounds which existed prior to the
marriage of the parties and which
we're not discovered until afterwards
In such a case a person will not have
been considered as married.

Bert felt flush suffuse her cheek in
his presence, and his voice recalled
her to the present.
Miss Parker, is it not?" said the
young man, for young he was, despite
the fact that he had followed the
fortunes of the confederacy through
four years of varying war.
81 am Miss Bert Parker, only child
of the late Capt. John Parker, of
company A, -th Ohio am the per-
son to whom letter signed 'Orville
Lane was addressed"
"And am the writer" interrupted
the young man.
Bert stood silent in his presence:
she felt that she was to have revealed
to her the fate Of her father, and by
the enemy" who had come up from
southland for that purpose.
This is one of the proudest yet
saddest moments of my life," con.
tinued the young soldier. "Your
fathers last resting place need be a
mystery no longer. came down
here last evening hoping to locate it,
but the shadows of the pines pre-.
vented. 1t is all plain now. The
cross cut in the pine underneath
which we buried Capt. Parker after
the gallent defense of the ford
is visible yet. and If you will
come with me. Miss Parker"
Bert started forward with light
cry which she could not suppress.
At last She thought of the sacred.
ness of the day; she looked down al
the wreath in her hands, and then
glanced up at her companion.
you were his enemy, then" she
said, suddenly disengaging one hand
which she thrust forward.
I'VE are friends now" was the
quick answer 1T is reunion beneath
the battle pines. 1t is here!"
They had halted beneath one Of
the pine kings of the wood, and the
young confederate was pointing to =
certain spot where a wood anemone
lifted her head to the cones.
Bert knelt down and placed her
wreath where there seemed to be the
semblance of mound, and in another
moment, across the mingled emerald
and bloom, lay sword.
Though he cannot wear the blade
he did not disgrace, it shall lie upon
his BOSOM" said the confederate.
There is no north, no south; there is
one country, thank heaven."
Bert Parker heard these words as in
dream, and when she looked I'D !.
man with folded arms stood beside
her, looking down at the welded
sword and chaplet.
Slowly and almost speeches.. two
persons went up the weIl-known path
leading from the ford to the house
among the pines. The mother saw
placed in her lap her hero's sword:
she looked at the handsome couple
standing over her, and her heart
thrilled with the prophecy of new love.
The day waned; the sword hung be.

A STORY OF SUCCESS.
How Young Mar Became Secretary
to the Pre- sident

10 the IRE SiOent.
Grover Cleveland, in a forcible and
/ interesting article in The Saturday
Evening Post, tells the following story
as showing the opportunity of a
young man under civil service reform
honestly administered:
"One of many illustrative incidents
may be profitably related in connec-
ton with this statement A number
of years ago, under a democratic adj
ministration, young man who had
successfully passed the required ex-
animation, and whose name stood on
strict. accordance with existing rules,
appointed to government position,
involving the discharge of quite con-
fidential duties. under tie immediate
| supervision and control of an official
who, though a strong partisan and
naturally disinclined to civil service
reform, was especially conscientious
and faithful in the performance of the
work of his bureau. His new appointee
was found to be so competent and al
| together SO satisfactory, that when he
was after a time transferred to the
clerical force at the executive man
sion, the regret and dissatisfaction OF
his superior officer were honestly and
frankly expressed. In both positions
the party affiliations of this employed
were unknown; but his ability and
loyalty to duty were beyond question
He has remained at the executive man
sion since his transfer, and now holds
the position of secretary to the presi
dent-an Office scarcely less honorable
and in some respects fully as i'm
portant, as a place in the cabinet"

pure classic, modified into the style
known as the southern colonial. could
scarcely be improved upon for dig
nifty. simplicity and grace, fitting TO a
public building that is also, in part, a
private residence So the old portico,
with its Corinlnian pillars, is left in
colonnades that curve away to left
and right connecting the wings to
the main structure. 1t must inevitably
suggest the approach to st. Peters eX-
cept for its color, pure white. which
will recall Greece in the days when
its cities were marble.
