ing taken up by many beauty seekers.
1t is a sensible and becoming style
and the best possible way to acquire a
pretty neck and throat Any number
of society girls are making practice
of having all their house gowns con-
structed without collars, and as q con-
sequence the improvement in the color
of the skin is much fastened
Absolute cleanliness is one of the
requisites of a pretty neck. A thor
ough soaking in warm water and
pure soap should be given at least once
day; then a rinsing in clear warm
water and finally in cold water to
close the pores, Tincture of benzoin
added to the water will have whiten-
ing effect on the skin. A few drops
only are necessary.
Often the neck is disfgured by dark
lines produced by high and stiff neck
wear. In such a case cucumber milk
will be found very beneficial. 1t should
be well rubbed into the pores after
they have been cleansed by the warm
water and soap and before the cold wa
ter is used.
Probably the tissues are relaxed, and
general fiabbiness is the result. To
remedy this procure a good massage
cream, and after the fingers have been
Amounted rotate the muscles of the
neck firmly in a slanting direction
from under the chin toward the shout
ders and from the middle of the throat
backward and upward toward the ears.
Breathing exercises will do much to-
ward rounding out and strengthening
the throat muscles.

Died from His Injuries.

After suffering intense agony for a
period of nine days, Henry Goode, con-
ductor of freight train on the Rich
mond Fredericksburg and Potomac
Railroad, injured in a rear-end collision
at Accotink, fourteen miles south OF this
city, ten days ago, died at the Alex
andria Hospital late yesterday evening
from the effects of the injuries he re-
ceived in the accident. Mr. Goode was
thirty-two years Of age, and is survived
by widow and several children. The
remains were forwarded to Ashland, his
home, this morning. Mr.. GoOde was
brought here on the morning the acct
dent occurred and taken to the Alexan-
dria Hospital. An examination OF the
his injuries proved that they were of "a
very grave nature, and little hope was
entertained for his recovery from the
time he entered the hospital, although
every effort was employed to keep the
injured man alive 1t was found that
his lower right side was paralyzed, and
from time to time sinking spells occurred
until the end came.

River Notes.

The hull of the old steamer Mattano,
which has been lying in the dock foot Of
Duke street for several years, is to be
broken up for the wood and iron that are in
her. Since 1878 the old Mattano was a
familiar figure on the river. She be-
came antiquated and was replaced by
more modern boats and was finally sold.
Her engine and machinery were re-
moved, and it was proposed to make
barge of her hull. This plan has been
abandoned and she will be broken up.
The pungy Shining Light, owned by
Aldermen Ballenger, which has been
employed in running oysters throughout
the entire winter, is now laid up at the
Prince street wharf, and will fit out for
the watermelon trade next month.
The now pile driver built by Dean &
Son for the Pennsylvania Railroad has
been completed, and will in day or
two be turned over to the company. 1t
will be at once put in service in the con-
struction of the new Long bridge.

Fatal Accident.

A sad accident occurred about nine
o'clock this morning by which one lie
was lost and another is now in great
danger. Mr.. Thos. &. Cross, accompa--
MED by his son, Summerheld, walked
from this city early in the day out to the
w. & 0. junction to watch the trains
carving the District of Columbia Ma
tional Guards go past on their way to
Leesburg. They climbed the embank-
ment of the w. & o. road just west OF
the overhead bridge, which is a short
distance east of the junction, and were in
the act of crossing the track, when
southbound Pennsylvania train passed
on the main line beneath them, sending
up dense cloud of smoke, which filled
the cut completely Blinded by this, and
deafened by the rattle of the train pass
ing beneath them, they failed to note the
approach of the yard engine and car
which conveys passengers from this city
to the junction, and in moment the
boy. who was in the centre Of the track,
was under the wheels ground to pieces,
and the father, severely injured, was
dashed down the embankment. Mr..
Cross and the remains of his son were at
once brought to this city, and Mr.. Cross
was placed on a stretcher and carried to
the Alexandra Hospital where his in
iuries were found to be ofa serious nature,
he being badly cut about the head and
having broken leg He was attended
by DIR. O'Brien. He is forty-twO years
of age, native of Point Of Rocks, Md,
and has lived in this city for some time
past, his home being on First street
near the old canal basin. He was once
employed by w. A. Smoot & Co. An
inquest on the remains Of the seventeen
year-old boy, Summerfeld, was held this
morning near the scene of the accident
by Justice of the Peace Isaac {. Burrill,
who acted as coroner, and the trainmen
were exonerated from all blame.

King Street Improvement.

There is an unavoidable delay in the
repaving of King street, and it is feared
the summer will have passed before any
material progress is made in the work.
The cause of the delay is attributed to
the failure to procure the material neces-
sary for the new paving. The contrac-
tors are engaged in laying some Of the
curling and as soon as the material can
be obtained the work of repaving will be
commenced. AS has heretofore been
stated, the electric railway company is
anxious to place double track from
Columbus street to the western boundary
of the city, and some property owners
have signifed their willingness to allow
the extra track to be laid.

ANOTHER BOXER REBELLION.


Far away in Ninghsia, a walled city
of Mongolia, General Tung Flu Hsiang,
ex-Boxer and leader of many thousands
of Chinese Zimmerman; Prince Tuan,
ex-Boxer and leader of the hordes who
planned to massacre all the foreigners in
Pekin during the time of horror OF the
Boxer outbreak, and Ian Kung, another
notorious Boxer leader, are arming their
thousands Of followers, including the
army of General Tung Flu Hslang,
which was ordered to disband by the
government, but which refused. A re-
bellion is being planned, which has for
its object the invasion of Pekin, and the
placing of TuDg Flu Hsiang on the
Chinese throne. This is the startlir
news received by many Cinnamon in
letters from China.
A massacre took place at Wei-Hsing
in which 1000 innocents were killed.
The townspeople seeing soldiers and
fearing an attack closed the city gates.
This excited the suspicion of the troops
the people fed to the south gate and met
another section of imperial troops and
death. The Pekin correspondent of the
Shanghai Mercury reports that 1900
of these unarmed innocent, helpless
women and children were slain, an in
Justice which brought hundreds of vii
layers to the rebel ranks. There Is
much alarm among the Chinese mer
chants at Pekin, according to their letters
for the belief is growing that troubloui
times are soon to come again for Chin'
and in this connection the future acts o
Tung Flu Hsiang are said to be NOR
dreaded than any of the existing
disturbances. There are, however, dis
quieting elements to be considered.

POISONING THE SYSTEM.

II is through the bowels that the body is
cleansed of impurities. Constipation keeps
these poisons in the system, causing headache,
dulness and melancholia at first, then unsightly
eruptions and finally serious illness unless
a remedy Is applied. DeWitt's Little Early
Risers prevent this trouble by stimulating the
liver and promote easy, healthy action of the
bowels. These little pills do not act violently
but by strengthening the bowels enables them
TO perform their own work. Never grippe or

While there is but little opposition to
