members OF the legislature, will leave
for the new state plantation in Sun

sion of the legislature this subject

desire to visit the institution and in
form themselves as to the exact
status of affairs
1t is rumored that bill will be
introduced at the next session of the
legislature which will provide for
depriving the present board of control
of the management of the penitenti-
ary, and confer this management up
on a special commission to be COM
posed of three men, one of whom is
to be warden. The reason for max
ing this change is that it would make
the responsibility less general, and
bring it home more clio iely than the
present arrangement.

Fashionable Life In Italy.

The fashionable season in Italy, says
Luigi Villari in italian Life In Town
and Country" is from Christmas to
the carnival. At Naples, Messina and
some other places there is also q sum-
mer season. Commenting ON the pc
culiarities of life among the upper
classes, Mr.. Villari says:
italians, even In the grandest estab-
nshments, do not wear evening dress
for dinner unless there is q party. A
black coat Is enough for ordinary pur-
poses. y few men who wish to be par
ticularly fashionable wear a smoking
coat with a black tie, which garment
Is sufficient for all save very large din
ner parties and balls. On the other
hand, there are occasions when a man
dons his dress clothes by day. 1t is de
rigueur at court functions, even in
mornings, and at weddings. Ladies
wear hats at the theaters except on
gala nights. They display more jew
ehy by day than English ladies' The
italian aristocracy have magnificent
jewels. and even in quite small towns,
where there is no great wealth, the old
families can make fine display. The
tall hat is only necessary at marriages.
funerals and at court. Young men of
fashion wear it also when paying calls
during the season. Among the bour-
geoisie evening clothes are hardly ever
worn at ALL"

Two Clever Statesmen.

One crisis in Lord Palmerston's life
illustrates the absolute good humor
which may prevail even when political
enmity is at its worst. Lord Derby had
made an attack upon him in the upper
house with such energy and eloquence
that the odds against him seemed over
whelming. But he defended himself
and his policy from the dusk of one
day to the dawn of another with such
tact, deXterity and force of appeal to
the national sense of honor that he was
acquitted of all blame by majority of
fourscore
Next day in passing through the Cor
ridor leading from On anteroom to the
upper house one swing door opened to
his hand and az the same moment the
other to that of Lord Derby. They
were opponents, but they were also
manly and sweet natured men. They
