DANGERS OF ANARCHY
Discussed by Archbishop Ireland and
DR.. Geo. e. Vincent.

Archbishop Ireland and Professor
George E. Vincent OF the University of
Chicago, spoke on anarchy before the
Merchants club of Chicago last Saturday
evening. They conceded that the dan
ger was present in America, but differed
radically as to the solution. Archbishop
Ireland held the opinion that religion Of
fered The only safe solution. While he
did not fear anarchy it was we'll to be
forewarned. The great danger to the
country was the Indifference to religion
and as the people departed the more from
the church so the social structure was be-
coming the more imperiled.
Professor Vincent was satisfied that ed
ucation of an advanced type would over
throw anarchy. The education, however,
must be slfeh as to teach men to think for
protection as we'll as for the evolution Of
new ideas.

loose plaits and abundance of sleeve
garniture, have quite superseded the
long popular bolero and EtOn. Silk and

little sacks which invariably show an
enormous amount Of fine needlework

a great deal.
The gowns for demi-toilet are espe-
cially attractive this spring. They in
variably show short elbow sleeves. fin

fiounces have pointed ends reaching,
in many instances, below the waist
line. Nothing could be more graceful.
The most noticeable change in the cut
CT the new demi-toilets occurs i'm the
sleeves, which are of endless variety.
The skirts. backs and bodices are not
along very new lines. In fact, they are
much like last years styles, except i'm
the matter of garniture.

FASHION

NEW YORK, May 10.-Western wo-
spicuous at the Waldorf lately. They
are here to do their spring shopping,
and are less showily clad than usual.
Mrs. John w. Gates is partial to black,
and looks very svelte and charming in
a crepe de chine made up with black
Irish crochet, showing white beneath.
She is a remarkably well preserved
woman. and IL is almost impossible to
believe that she is the mother of
married son.
The Peck women, who are here to
speed the bride on her way to Paris,
are wearing white almost exclusively
Ia the evenings. The dear medium
length heavy lace coats, and the fat
topped wide-brimmed hats with the
graceful cache peigne of lace are so ex-
tremely chic as to have entirely caught
our fancy. Some Of these hats have a
lace scarf, six inches or more in width,
reaching to the shoulder in the back
Others Of the same species are turned
up sharply at the back instead Of
dropping over the hair. and are
trimmed with big bows or flowers.
Many have lace draped about the front
and side brims with artistic effect. but

Of which 1 spoke during the winter. are

Chester, Oct. 2.-Therc was
G, eat excitement in the neighbor-
hood of the Southern depot early
this morning occasioned by the
finding of nicely dressed, appar-
emily six weeks old white baby
boy. 1t was found lying on the
warehouse platform last night 8
O'Clock by Ellen Price, an old
darkey living near the depot. She
was passing along by the ware
house and heard its faint and lon
ely cries in the dark.
She was overcome with excite
ment at the time, but summoned
up courage enough to care for it,
and take it into her cabin for
nights lodging. Early this morn
ing she reported the matter to
police headquarters, and all day
people of both races have gone to
the Price house to look at it. 1t
was comfortably wrapped up and
supplied with three changes of
clothes and the following note was
left beside it.
tThis child l leave in the hands
OF some dear one, trusting that it
will be cared for, as | am not able
to care for myself. l leave it here
in the sight of the Heavenly One,
Christ Jesus"
Unless the city authorities can
find some home for it here it will
be sent to the county poor house.
The police are working on the
case and are trying to find whence
the child came. The supposltion
is that it was brought here on one
of the northbound trains of the
Southern railroad.

Instead of improving the cot
ton crop shows further deteriora
ton, and the government report
issued on Friday shows positively
the poorest condition ut or about
this Date that was ever reported.
The condition of September 25
this year Is shown to have been
only 5S.3, as against Ga on Au-
gust 26, 81 4, on September 25 a
year ago, 81 on Ocro' er l and a
ten year average of $50. This
is even worse than the condition
reported on October 1, 1896
69.7 per cent. which, it may be
recalled, resulted In crop of on
ly S,757,0O0 bales. The area
planted in that year, however,
was fully 100000 acres less
than that Of the present year.
The lowest condition reported in
any state is that of AZ in Texas,
but that of Alabama Is only SO,
Georgia reports 60, the Carolinas,
Arkansas and Florida only 6s
each, Mississippi G3 and Louisia-
ma Ga. The highest condition of
all in fact, that reported by Ten
nessee, 76 per cent, would seem
to indicate only three fourths of a
crop, while among those report
ing only half crop are two of
the largest producing states. This
astonishlngly low condition nat
urally presupposes a heavy reduc-
tion in yield from the expecta,
tlons held earlier in the season.
1t Is, however, not to be forgot,
ten that the cotton market itself,
whether because 1t has expected
worse or because it disbelieves
the report, showed little effect en-
prices, the gain on the day being
7WS points and the advance on
the week being only soc points.
1t is to be recalled also that, while
the condition in half of the states
is lower than a year ago, the con-
dltlon then was not really as bad
as reported, because the COM
merclal crop actually turned
o"t 1000, 900 bales. larger than
the estimate made by the Depart
ment of Agriculture. If the same
percentage of underestimation oc,
ours this year crop of 10, 500,
900 bales Is not impossible, and
1t may, perhaps, run still heavier.
