PRIVATE D4LZELLS JUBILEE.
stamping for the Fiftieth Consecutive
Year for tho Republicans.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.--1n 1854 TIE; e
lived down on the farm in the hills Of Noble
county, Ohio, fair haired, blue eyed boz
of seventeen summers, whose fathe: was
first Wing, then an Abolitionist The boy
had imbibed hatred of sla very and seces-
sion from that source and had wide and
varied reading of literature bearing on thoss
themes.
The opposition to the pro-slavery party
had met at Columbus in February and
nominated ticket which was elected that
year, with not one Democrat successful on
either State or Congressional ticket There
was solid delegation Of Republicans in
Congress for the only time that such thing
ever happened in Ohio.
The boy and his father belonged to that
opposition and shared in the labors ending
80 gloriously at the October election, 1854;
the boy stamping the school districts for
the new party, as yet without name-the
Republican party. He has kept up that
record for fifty consecutive years, and is
now on the stump for Roosevelt and Fair
banks.
That boy was James NJ. Dalzell, better
known as Private Dalzell. He is to close
his fiftieth year Of service to the party he
helped to organize at GAINESVILLE the night
before the election, and the same night
an hour before at Cambridge. On Sat,r-
day, Nov. S, he will address a meeting at
Parkersburg, W. Va, early In the evening,
and later on the same night one at Marietta,

color. And it's part Of her charm that
she has discovered how to be pretty and
practical at the same moment. She makes
comfort in dress seem benign expression
instead of hateful freaklsh novelty.
In recent English paper, that makes
specially of advertising sporting clothes,
there was shown an amazing assortment
Of rumrod girls, with skin tight, hlouses,
pointed shoes. stiff collars, full skirts Just
escapng, and, last insult to the sports
woman rifles held muzzle upri ght SO that
in case Of accident the uncomfortable
young British girls head would be instantly
blown of.
But there are real sportswomen over
there of course, whose skirts are at the shoe
tops and are made OF corduroy or heauher
and with boots or low shoes and leggings,
gloves forgotten and hat on stone wall or
hedge.
This is more the style of the New York
girl when she is equipped for real camping
party with moose as the objective OF
triumph. She doesn't set out to be trim
She goes to shoot and her clothes are one
detail of success.
Her suit is rough brown tweed mixture,
with lines of rich red squaring OIL he brown
shades, She harmonizes nicely with autumn
frost colors and slips from one landscape
into another without discord.
First. her skirt is full six inches from
the ground. 1t is good design htting
without fulnesS about the waist and mar
ing at the hem wide enough to make climb
vaults as lightly as any man in the party;
The skirt has four inch hem stitched
many times. -,
With this skirt she wears brown silk,
short Knockers over woollen union SUIT
and leggings of corduroy to the knee, with
the stoutest low shoes, loose over the joint
and snug at the instep, never high boots

Women shoppers Seldom Tip.
From tho CHICAGO Tribune.

From tho CHICAGO tribune.
The shopping woman, especially the ele-
gantly dressed woman OF leisure. according
to the matron of one of the popular Chicago
waiting rooms. is the poorest Upper In the
world. Tho matron, to whom she turns
for stationery. pens. books. needles. pins
and thread or whom she asks to watch her
things while she goes here and there upon an
errand or the maid whom she asks to assist
with some refractory part other dress seldom
receives even dime from her for this ind of
service. II she Ia ILL., however. it Is different
story. She Ia then inclined to pay generously
for the most trifing service.
"Sho seems TO be so frightened II she Is
the least bit i'll downtown" said one of the
matrons, that she Is ready TO estimate even
the most trihing service and II she has but
little money with her at the time II is not
uncommon for her Ia send n check to the
maid afterward. II IL wasn't for the things
we are able 70 do for those who are i'll the tips
In a place Of this kind would be few and far be-
tween. Most of the women say How per-
fectly lovely when we got out hairpins or
hat pins or any little thing they happen to
want. and they eSclaim In admiration at the
generosity on the part Of the management
which supplies tho things, hut II we brush
them or holp them 20 sew or pin things to-
scther they take It as one and the same thing
with the pins and needles and lay IL all to the
loneliness OF the store.

Have tan shoes, made waterproof
and wear them few weeks before start
ing&i with YOUR tweed ssberman,s blouse
this sweater for cold dawns and twilights,
the wash silk waist because it's easily
cleaned. hygienic and comfortable. And
you turn in the neck OF the waist, or you
wear loose riding stock.
No corset, but riding girdle, for trim
waist line, and pretty soft veldt hat that
tips to your convenience and that looks
like outdoors.
Next to tweed, and before it for very
rough cross country walking. the New York
girl ranks wool corduroy for a shooting
suit She prefers the old style tan tone,
a blouse much better than the conventional
Norfolk shooting coat, and it lis vorn with
the same fittings.
AS to smartness of effect in such an outfit
it will depend upon the becomingness OF
color, the gracefulness of outline and the
proper management of skirt length and
gaiter At. II the skirt Is eight inches from
the ground it will look too short-if it is
but four inches, it will be extremely awk-
ward, making the feet look large. Six
practical.
Always have the skirt cut an inch shorter
at the back. That much will make the diff
ference between jauntiness and dowdi-
pess.
Have CATERS exactly the same tone as
skirt, and as perfect in fit as a glove. Gait
ers should be made to order and have at
least one fitting, to secure smoothness
without tightness. If they're loose you II
be miserable, and if they're tight your
escort or guide will be.
Loose dogskin gloves are necessary
for cold mornings, but the New York girl
discards them when the chase is really
cn.
rntil the New York girl brought down
her first moose she thought she hunted
to kill; since then she knows that, with the
return OF October and red and yellow woods
and aromatic odors and frosty sweet winds,
she Is simply homesick for the woods and
the moose is her deooy.

uncle on her last birthday.
The breeCh, oh tragic thought! was of
silver inset with a monogram of turquoise,
her birthday stone; and the trigger, that
sensitive nerve Of rifle was also adorned
with costly blue stones and there were
few diamonds thrown in. while the stock
was inlaid like an intricate parquette floor.
And the absurd object cost some $500.
Fortunately, the relative doesn't shoot,

feeling, and she has no outdoor standards
for it. It's pretty plaything to train her
eye and nerve and make records with:
And it doesn't have 10 go with tweeds and
sunshine and simple living.
But she has ideals about her rifles and
shotguns. Her rife is most important to
her, because it stands for big adventures
and rare triumphs, but she also takes her
shotgun seriously. Her best gun for small
work is l2-gauge that weighs about five
and a half pounds. She has carried it
shooting marsh birds down Long Island.
for wild duck hunting in northwestern
Montana, partridge shooting up in the
Adirondacks, and 1t is the key to her COIN
mssariat on nearly all her big game hunts.
Her ammunition, small flask of liquor
and some delicious cakes Of chocolate are
packed in her knapsack, with, of course,
handke rchiefs, hairpins, a drop or two OF
lavender water and shades Of Diana of the
Ephesians! a box of complexion powder.
But her dress is the most sensible to be
ina gined and no feminine outfit could be
sensible without looking smart and becom-
ing and charming of its kind. Jackets
with stiff uncompromising outlines, skirts Of
an awkward length, hats without flexible
brims are the English girls notion of a
sporting costume And with this tight
fitting, over-snug oolSets and stiff neck
bands. and possibly linen cuffs.
As for the New York girl, she would not
wear the most intentionally wise outdoor
dress ever designed if it made her look I'M
calmly or was unbecoming in outline or
