RIBBONS AS TRIMMINGS.

Ribbons have never been used
~ better effect in trimmings than
this summer, perhaps because the
ribbons themselves have never
been prettier OF more adaptable.
They are used in tiny rufiies and
in shirred bands TO trim many OF
the midsummer evening gowns,
and they make decorative band

little shoulder wraps which every

LONG LIFE ENDED.
Gen. Cassius N. Clay, the Lion
OF White Hall Dead.
A FAMOUS OLD KENTUCKlAN,

After an eventful career, Major
General Cassius Marcellus Clay,
diplomat, statesman, orator, war
rior, editor duelist, lawyer, abol-
Zionist, legislator, recluse, fanatic
and lunatic died Thursday night
at his historic home, Whitehall,
of cystitics and other complica-
tons incident to old age.
He served in the state legisla-
ture from Madison county as a
youth, was a prisoner in the Mex
lean war, leader OF Southern abol-
itionlsts, ambassador to Russia,
general in the armies of the Unit
ed States and the most prominent
figure in several of the bloodiest
encounters in Kentucky history.
In politics he was alternately a
Democrat and Republican.
His children were all at his bed
side. Some of them had not been
in their fathers house or seen him
in years, because of his peculiar
hallucination that they are in
vendetta sworn to kill him.
Clay was one of the most pic
turesque figures in American pol
itics in the sixties. His home at
Whitehall has been guarded by
arms. A loaded can non sits in
his hallway, and his room is YER
liable arsenal, gathered for the
purpose of repelling an attack of
an imaginary vendetta.
Gen. Clay, who was SO, was only
recently declared insane, through
the efforts of his three children,
and committee was appointed to
take charge of his estate. He had
several times summoned doctors,
only to refuse to see them when
they came. He allowed trained
nurse to take charge of his room
room several weeks ago, but sent
her away when be got the idea that
she was responsible for the remov-
al of his weapons.
Gen. Clay was one of the most
picturesque reminders Of past
generation. Though his parents
were slave holders he was convert
ed by speech of William Lloyd
Garrison anG became an Abolition.
ist In 1916 he began to issue an
antislaSery paper at Lexington,
and when the office was mobbed he
issued it from Cincinnati. He was
an officer of volunteers in the Mex
lean war and minister to Russia
from 1861 to 1869.
For some time he had by dis
play of arms, Kept all strangers
froL4 his place, and lived alone
with his servants.
He attracted notice several years
ago by marrying Dora Richardson,
l6-year-old girl, who afterward
left him to wed a sawmill hand,
who was recently killed by train
in Illinois. Even after she left he
retained kindly feelings toward
the child wife, and lavished pre-
sents on her.
He figured in several duels, kill
ed two white men with his knife
in fights over the slave question
just before the war, aud shot a ne
gro to death some years ago. He

Radcliffe Case.

William Radcliffe, the Englishman
whose property was destroyed at
Grand Mesa lakes in this state, should
be reimbursed by the county. if it is
response p,e, but in no event should
his claim for damages be paid by the
national government. The national
government is not responsible. and the
people of Colorado do not want it. by
paying this claim to declare that their
state is dishonest and irresponsible
member of the union.
Whether Radcliffes claim is valid
or not is matter concerning which
we are not prepared to express an
opinion; but it is clear in any event
that the responsibility does not rest
upon New York. Massachusetts and
the other members of the union apart
from Colorado. If congress makes an
appropriation for its payment, it will
be the same as taking money contribut
ed by the people of the other states
along with those of Colorado.
The treaty with Great Britain does
not provide that the United States
must pay every claim that may be
presented by a British subject, re-
gardless of whether it is just or un-
Just. If the claim is not we'll found
ed. then it should not be paid by any
one. If. however, it is just. the
county of Delta or the men who des-
troyed the property should pay it.
Gov. Peabody has looked into the
matter and says that the state is not
responsible. Whether this conclusion
is correct or not we do not know; but
if the facts show that Colorado is un-
der no obligations to reimburse Mr..
Radcliffe, unquestionably the same
facts show that the national govern
msnt is under no obligation to pay
him. The courts of this state are
open. Let him come here and show
what ground he has upon which to
demand compensation.
Its payment by the national govern
ment would be equivalent to a declar-
alton that in the opinion of congress
the people of Colorado are hopelessly
tAdtf
it may be, the national government
will have to shoulder their obligation.
AS we'll might the national govern
ment assume responsibility for any
other state obligation. If it should
pay damages in a case like this, why
should it not pay bonds and other Sc
curities which state may repudiate?
The principle involved should be re-
garded, and at least congress should
make diligent inquiry into the facts
before adopting a course which would
reflect upon the honor of the people
of Colorado. If they are refusing to
pay just obligation. then let that
fact be established by evidence. 1t
should not be taken for granted with
out proper inquiry. .-Depver Republi-

NEEDS OF ALASKA.

Washington, Dec. 14.-Governor
Brady, of Alaska, in his annual report
to the secretary of the interior, urges
provision for Alaska's representation

that Alaska's main need is for pioneers
and home builders. He urges abolish
ment of the fee system for United

shals and extension of the homestead
laws. He says congress can do no bet
ter thing for Alaska now than to en-
courage the construction of roads.
Governor Brady says those who have
travelled throughout the territory this
year are certain that Alaska today has
a smaller white population than it had
in 1900, and that 1t is migratory. In
view of these facts, the governor. depre.

SILVER AND SHAKE.
Extreme Cold Weether in the Miss
issippi Valley.


Chicago, Dec. 14.-Sunday morning
was the coolest day in Chicago for this
season of the year since 1876. Early in
the morning the temperature began to
fall, until at a. m. it had reached 10
degrees below zero. The only time that
this mark has been reached in the his
tory of the weather bureau was Deem
Der 8, 1876, when IA degrees below was
registered. During the day it began to
moderate and at night the mercury
was lowering around the zero mark
with indications for warmer weather,
with snow storms.
On account of the cold and the heavy
condition of the streets, owing to the
heavy fall of snow, the three story de-
partment store of Bodizneki & Co., in
West Twenty second street, was de-
stroyed by fire. A special call for en-
gines was sent in, but before they could
reach the scene of the fire through the
drifts of snow, the building had burned
causing loss OF $50, 900. So far but
one death, that of William Duffy, a
switchman, who was found frozen to
death in the Chicago 4 Northwestern
yards, has been reported.

The Morning Hurry.

AS far as is possible we should avoid
the hurry and furry that usually pre-
cedes the slam of the front door, as the
children get off to school. 1t Is diff
cult to manage, there is no doubt. The
mother dislikes. more than anything
else, perhaps, waking her child out Of
Il sound sleep, and this often has to be
done If he Is to have his breakfast and
dress properly before school. Usually
she leaves him till the very last minute,
If he is sleeping, and then hastily
eaten breakfast and hurry and hustle
to get off is the result. This can only
be obviated satisfactorily by instituting
earlier hours for going to bed. that the
child may wake early as natural
thing.
In many homes, even without the
late sleeping, there is hurry in the
morning. The children are allowed to
get into lazy habits and procrastinate
to an eXasperating and injurious de-
gree. Then, as the moment approach
when the leaving for school can be nc
longer delayed, there Is undue anxiety
on the part Of the mother and scene
of excitement that is good for neither
mother nor children.
