There is always a lace edge around the top, and in some there is a fancy design mode of lace, with the material set on at the top in front. Where the corset covers are to be worn with even- ing gowns there is a ribbon, which may 1 be tied around the arm at the side oi the decollete frock or on top Of the shoulder with others.

 There is always a lace edge around the top, and in some there is a fancy piece of the fine laces, and all in white with the exception of the ribbons. A charm ing model, of the handmade gowns has medallions of lace, set in around the low round cut neck and in the big, loose, flowing sleeves. while the gown is edged with an applique lace. The rib- bon is set on the front in a big rosette with long ends, and more of it finishes the sleeves.
 Pretty petticoats are to be found in pale pink and blue on china silk. They are fitted and have no bulk over the hips, while the full ruffles give suf1- cient sweep around the lower edge One of these has the ruffles of a1terna- ting marrow bands of fine embroidery and wide bands of point de Paris lace with an edge of deep lace ruffied on. Another has wide insertions and edg' ing of Italian valenciennes.
 French null petticoats in white witt Spanish ruffies are other pretty and useful shirts. One of these has nor. row insertions of German ''vap' lace fl the fisheye pattern in the fiounce which is edged with a narrow double ruf1e.

4 CHANGE uF TUNE

There has been quite a craze in Great Britain for the municipal ownership of public utilities, but Consul Boyle of Liverpool sees an unmistakable cessa- tion of the tendency toward the "nuni- cipalization" of industries, which seems to have fairly captivated the English people few years ago, and which threatened to become almost epidemic, embracing not only public utilities, but a large variety of what had generally been considered to belong to the cate gory of individual enterprises exclu- sively. Very little is heard just now of new movements in this direction; and indeed there are influences at work, we'll organized though quiet, which have for their object the wiping out or, at any rate, the curtailment of municipal socialism, This move ment is taking advantage of the fact of the growing opposition to increased municipal taxes, the claim being made that the "nunicipalization" of indus trial enterprises not only kills individ- ual effort, but adds to the municipal rates,
 This is not surprising. Perhaps by and by even the initiative and refer endum win be found to have flaws.

Boston is now connected with New Haven in a new way. It was connect- ed with New Haven before, but now the good people of Boston can come to New Haven by trolley if they want to. Doubtless many of them will want to. They will be able to see much on the way, and they will see more when they get here. Some of them saw more here last Saturday, and they can always see a plenty here. New Haven is always worth seeing, but never more so than when it is engaged in such a discus sion as that which in the course of time resulted in the pulling down of the old State House, or that which may, in the course of eternity, result in leaving the cut problem just where 1t started. They can discuss some in Boston, but not quite as long and thoroughly as we can, and Bostonians may well come here now by the new route and learn of us. They needn't hurry either. The discussion will not lose freshness before they get here.
 We congratulate Boston on yester- days opening. There can't be toe many ways to come to New Haven, and we can say as proudly as the old Rom ans used to say about the roads lead ing to Rome, All roads lead to, New Haven.

TOO MUCH PULQUE " MEXICO.

TOO MUCH PULQUE TS MRXICO. The talk is that they drink more than they ought to in the City of Mexico, and that crime and poverty are prev alent there on that account. The pop ulation this year is estimated at 375,- 900; there are 90S drinking places, or one for every AIS persons, The charac- ter of the population and the nature of the popular beverage are held mainly responsible for the unfavorable show ing. Spaniards are an uncommonly temperate race. But the great mass of the population of Mexico is composed of Indians, degraded by hiving in un- sanitary urban conditions. Pulque, the fermented sap of the maguey, a spe- cies of agave americana, is the great drink os the central tableland. It is estimated that pulque to the value of about $6,900,000 silver a year is con- sumed by the 225,OoO inhabitants of the 
 lower classes. Pure, and taken moder- atefy, pulque is said to be beneficial; it is sedative in effect and is regarded as good for anaemic and nervous condi-
 tion. But as commonly inbibed it is curse to the community. Half of the
 lower classes consume, on an average, it is said, three pints day, costing about eight cents. Probably about | twenty-five per cent. use about eight pints & day. An American resident says
 that he has seen men drink half gall
 lon measure of pulque within half an
 hour. Another American in Mexico,
 Mr. Edward c. Butler, speaks of it's
 evil effects on children; even little ones
 are often allowed to drink 1t freely, and
 MT. Butler says that Mexican mother has been known to drink twelve schoon-
 CTS of pulque a day. ...t

In 1859 some distance southeast of Lake Nyassa, in Central Africa, Liv- ingston discovered Lake Shirwa, body of water about thirty miles long and f1f- teen miles wide, which has now entirely disappeared with the exception of few ponds in it's bed. Lake Nyami, discov- cred by Livingston at the same time has also disappeared. The cause of the change appears to be a gradual drying up of bodies of water in Central Africa As marking the results of a single hali century the changes named with nc doubt other equally important, but not recorded) show 8 rapidity of mutation in those inland waters not equalled else where in the contemporary geograph- CTS survey.

 only to Irlutsk. Beyond that the road is used entirely for military purposes. The circle track around Lake Baikal, from Irkutsk to Missovaia, the con- struction of which was commenced in 1899 was finished last month. The build- ing of this road was one of the most difficult known in European railway construction. On the western part of the road 3S tunnels had to be cut.

The State-appointed Board of Police of Boston was, in the opinion of the Boston Post, one of the things that worked toward the defeat of Bates for governor of Massachusetts. "The peo- pie of Boston have always resented in- reference with their local government, and in taking the control of their police out of their hands the limit has been reached. There were doubtless other influences operative in producing the tremendous vote repudiating Governor Bates in Boston, but this Is the most conspicuous" .

tiyes. were also present and delivered

AGAINST ANY CHANGE.
Committee on Rules Votes in Favor
of Two-thirds Majority.

St Louis, July 7.-When the COM
mittee on rules met, the Illinois mem
Der, F. P. Morris, proposed that a sim
pie majority only be required to noml-
nate candidates and not a two-thlrds
majority. as has been the practice
since 1882. G. E. Milton of Tennessee
opposed the idea, and Colonel Thomas
f. Grady of New York, who had been
chosen chairman, said: "The two
thirds rule vas first adopted to
prevent the control of the party by a
section of the country. 1t was not
then dreamed that the West would de-
velop as a counterweight to the East.
After the sectional danger was passed
the rule was continued SO that dele
gates from Republican portions OF the
country should not be able to nomi-
nate the candidates"
l.. Irving of Delaware opposed the
change and on a show of hands, the
chairman counted four for the change
and twenty-four against. The rules OF
the last convention were adopted with

PARKER STILL GAINS
OPPOSITION TO THE NEW YORK
JuRIsT SEEMS TO BE GROW
ING WEAKER.

st. Louis, July 1.-THE steady
growth of the Parker strength has
continued unchecked throughout he
day and at night. In the face OF the
developments in the convention SEES
sion the nebulous opposition grew
more uncertain and now no one can be
found to stand for any definite state
ment that the New Yorker will meet
with opposition of a serious character
when the convention is polled for hrst
place on the ticket. Delegations that
have wavered in the balance have sue
cumbed to the Parker tide with lew
exceptions, and these are not expected
to withstand the almost assured re-
suits of the vote as it proceeds. but
will change to the Parker column be-
fore the roll call is finished.
It was reported late at night that a
final anti-Parker conference had been
called for an unknown place OF meet
ing, but the New Workers. managers.
confident that they have h whole SIT
uation thoroughly in hand, were not

possible results.
There was no political scheming on
the floor of the convention hall
| Wednesday, as the anti-Parkerites
were so much in the minority.
For second place on the ticket it can
hardly be said hat speculation cen
tiers on any one man. A half dozen
names are on the tongues OF the
crowds that gather in he lobbles ano

sentiment is that this matter shOulo
be left to ripen until after the head O
