SPRING MILLINERY sHOWlAG
What Fancy's Fertile Brain has
Evolved for Fashion.


This is the season Of the year
when woman's fancy seriously turns
to thoughts Of dress, Of an Easter
gown, dainty lingerie, dainty gloves
and hosiery, swell shoes and sur
Imounting all, that most attractive
part of the toilet, modish hat.
At two O'Clock this afternoon the
doors of Mrs. Dalton's millinery es
Establishment were thrown open TO
1.-THE public to show her pretty display
OF spring millinery. Pretty hats in
the latest materials Of rice, chrysan-
thernums and Arabian braids and
Arabian straw cloth of the Hghtest
texture greet the eye. The styles
this season are entirely new and the
many novelties shown are triumph
of the rnilIiner's art. There is case
after case Of beautiful creations of
laces, flowers and fabrics of the finer
kind. In lace millinery there is a
lovely variety, from heavy Irish
point to the most fairyfike dainti-
ness. 10 form the beautiful creations
over wire frames. Fancy and unique
braids, linen tissues, embroidered
with threadlike stripes of wool fiber,
fioss, pearl and jet beads. The rib
bons are of soft satin taffeta, Faille
Francaise and moire antique. Some
very pretty crowns are made entire
ly of applique. Flower ornamental
tions are very much in evidence this
season, roses being quite the thing
They are in every variety, tint and
tone In natures coloring.
White Chantilly lace is. novel in
trimming, Cabochins in Jet, pearls,
steel or gold have taken a popular
place In ornarnentations. Caprie-
iousness shapes the hrim, either In
graceful undulations, turned up high
in front, left or back; others wide ut
aide and looped over to shade the
face.
The children have not been for
gotten and this line is complete, so
many dainty little lady will look
more bewitehing when she wears a

A SOLDIERS EXPERIENCES
On the island of Luzon is found


On the island of Luzon ia found
quite q number of different tribes.
The Tagalogs, Macobebe and Egg
oretoes being the most important.
The Tagalog tribe is the most
treacherous and are the principal
| leaders of the rebellion. Aguinaldo
Is of that tribe. This tribe we find
in and around Manila and are the
most enlightened. They dress a
great deal like we do and have habits
something Ike ours.
They are employed as clerks, op-
orators, mechanics and in fact all
kinds of work.
They seem to be natural meehan-
les. They can take bolo Ia large
knife and build a house or anything
they wish to- The bolo is used as
weapon or any kind of tool and
comes very handy to the Tagalog.
The first thing Tagalog baby learns
| to do is to smoke a cigarette and
then to handle bolo. BY the time
fhe is ten years old he is an expert
at both.
The Macobebes are on friendly
terms with us and are helping to
subdue the insurgents. They are
/ excellent fighters and know no fear,
they inhabit the country north OF
Manila. Their habits are far differ
ent from that of the Tagalogs; they
dress very scantily and live in very
poorly built houses.
They are very intelligent and quick
| to learn.
| Egoretoes are more like savages
than any thing else / can compare
| them to. They inhabit the noun
tains and rough country, and hunt
for livelihood. Their dress Is only
q breech cloth. They live ip sheds

pal Homes of Worship.

Messrs Il. II. Ellwood and Sons, the

quite a record for building Episcopal
churches.
The firm is known by all to be the de-
slgners of the ST. Andrews Church, which

through the mulificence Of Miss Grace
Arents. But not only so, they are now
engaged in designing three other church-
es, all for Episcopal denominations, One
of these is a Virginia church. 1t Is at
Nokesville, near Manassas. This house
of worship, is to be inexpensive, but very
pretty in appearance.
Another Of the churches is TO be IN
West Virginia, at New Martinsville. 1t Is
to be much more pretentious than the
Virginia church 1t will cost q. consioera~
bic sum OF money and will be unique and
ornate in design.
But the finest of the three new places
OF worship will be at Grcenville ONO.
This church will be built of stone. The
cost of this edifce will run UP into the
thousands. It will be one Of the NEST
conspicuously handsome. churches in
GTeenviile.
Messrs Ellwood and Sons are the ar
chitects also for the handsome residences
Mr. Arents is building in the West End.
These houses are approaching compile
ton but delay has been occasioncd by
the scarcity Of labor and material.

4 CHICAGO, ILL, Jan. IA notice was
posted at the opening OF the Board OF
Trade to-day calling for the closing OF
all the open deals with George 81. Phil
lips, the former Corn Ilinf.
heavy call for extra margin is salu
to have been the cause of the posting OF
the notice. The call was made yesterday
afternoon and Phillips and his staff work
ed all night over the firm S books.
The trouble is said to be due to l-l
cent break in rye yesterday. Philips Is
credited with holding q line OF 1,l0O,Vo
bushels Of this cereal, mostly In May
options.
The break yesterday was caused by q
sale OF only $1,000 bushels. Phillips is
said TO have on his books also from four
to five million bushels of May wheat, and
about three million bushels of May corn.
BOUGHT By. ARMOUR.
Phillips opened negotiations with eleva-
tor men before the opening Of the Board
in an endeavor to dispose of his rye out
side the pit. The negotiations fell through
and May rye. which closed yesterday at
66 ga cents, opened with sales from 81 to
SO cents.
The whole Phillips line was dumped
into the market. Brokers acting for Ar
mour and Company however, bought
nearly all of it and the market IN con-
sequence rallied sharply to s. cents.
The effect CT the notice posted by Sec
rotary Stone was instantaneous, the
whole list opening off sharply. Wheat
opened l TO / IL lower; cornsl-2 to cent
down, and oats nearly a Cent depressed.
Fl. Hurtlburst, Phillips Office manager.
declared that it was the sl,ddenness OF
the call for the extra ten per cent mar
lips. He stated that Phillips had traded
but little on his own account, the grain
for the most part belonging to customers.

Jacob Ringer, attorney for Mr.. Phil
lips gave out a statement saying that
his client had been practically wiped off
the financial slate. .'He is broke. " said
Mr.. Ringer. MEN whom he worsted in
former deals went after him and they
got him.
Mr. Phillips gave out statement in
part as follows:
