plains that he merely came north to
procure little rest. One of the most
interesting incidents of his arrival at
the hotel frequented by visitors from
the West Indies was his meeting with
a young brother-in-laW of President
Morales-Emilio Villalon, chancellor of
the Dominican consulate in New York.
For an instant the veteran of many
revolutions gazed upon the bOyish
chancellor and then shaking his hand
congratulated him on holding such
responsible position.
Gen. Jiminez, in conversation with
reporters, declared he did not come
here to buy muitionS of war. but
merely to rest.

the efforts of Gen. Jiminez's army. and
characterized it as a gang of bandits.

Where EVERYTHING Is in Pairs.

There are two or three Kinds OF draw
ng-rcoms that literally set the teeth on
edge. and cause the souls of artistic pro
pie TO shudder within them. One is the
room where everything is in pairs;
there are pairs of vases, pairs of photo
graph frames, pairs of pictures. pairs of
footstools. pairs of everything. 1t is i'm
possible to prevent the thought flashing
across the mind that if pairing origin

THE 1904 SHIRTWAIST SUITS
Novelties in Airy Materials That Will
Be in Vogue During the
Summer.

The shirt waist suit of organdie. null
and other novelty summer goods, in
Guiding the linen batistes and the deli
cate muslins, are made with deep
shirred founce. This flounce is not
gathered nor tucked but is shirred with
a fine stirring and is very full indeed
To make this shirring very effective, a
deep hem is sometimes made in the top
and a shirr string is run through An
other shirring is placed three inches be-
low the top one, and still another. In
this manner deep heading is formed,
while the flounce is very full below it,
says the Brooklyn Eagle.
The palmer suits, the linens, the can
vases and the other substantial goods
are made with many-gored skirt, plain
and finished with a deep hem. The
skirt is well shaped, and there is the
inevitable flare around the foot, with
out which no skirt is complete.
Other skirts are trimmed with bias
bands of the material. and still others
are trimmed with stitched and strap
pings of goods, while others are trimmed
with latticed bands. There are hand
some linen skirts that are decorated
with stitched panels, with yokes out
lined with strappings and with a deep
f1ounce-like piece, with stitched band
at the top.
Quite a large percentage of the linen
suits show inlets of heavy lace. with
delicate wash embroidery outlining the
lace. The number of linen gowns trimmed
with lace is constantly on the increase,
and the trim and neat linen gown which
was so necessary feature of the ward
robe threatens to disappear utterly.
The linen coat has come in with the
summer wardrobe. This coat is cut
straight. and is trimmed with lace. 1t is
made with wide sleeves and there is
some fullness across the back. coat
of linen is washable. and should be
trimmed with linen lace. But. aside
from the material. there is nothing or
binary about the coat, for it is cut on
the smartest of summer models.
And there are automobile shirt waist
suits. These consist of a linen skirt,
beautifully shaped and OF. walking
length. The skirt is trimmed with
skirt there is an automobile coat of the
same material. usually of linen. with
strappings and with wide sleeves The
sleeves and collar are more deliberately
trimmed than is customary with auto
mobile coats. for they are bordered with
wide lace and are trimmed with neat,
compact trimmings. such as hard French
knots, buttons, wheel stitch embroidery
and braid.
And still another variety of shirt waist
suit is the Russian blouse suit. which is
a two-piece suit, and like many of the
others, requires a shirt waist, in addi-
ton. The Russian blouse shirt waist
suit is made with an instep skirt. with
a Russian blouse waist which is but
toned down the front, and can be taken
off; and with a shirt waist.
And in the list of summer suits. one
must not forget the Elton shirt waist
suit, which consists of skirt and an
Elton jacket The Elton is built of linen
or canvas or heavy cotton stuff, and is
slipped on over the shirt waist. which
is of any pretty material and color. usu-

FRANK E. HOWE, Editor and Publisher

In London the other day, a judge
denounced shyster lawyer from the
bench, and disbarred him from further
practice. "You are an accomplice of
thieves" the judge said "You in
vent testimony, and hire corrupt
people to testify falsely for your eli
ents. The object Of your practice be-
fore this court is to aid criminals.
No one ever heard of your defending
an honest man. You will never again
be permitted in this court. so long as
/ am Judge" The increasing number
of young lawyers is menace to the
country. Not a third of them can
ever honestly get living in the legit-
innate practice of their profession and
they become prey on the community,
fomenters of discord and past
masters of chicanery and corruption.
Some OF our greatest aud best men are
lawyers and the study of the law in
the right way is the unfolding OF the
great system of truth and justice
But in the hands of shysters a law
student is merely pupil in laziness
and dishonesty. 1t is due the public
that some ofthe rea lawyers who have
the good name of their profession at
heart, should break the old clannish
rule of standing by each other regard
less Of right and wrong and devise
method of removing the stain.

MONARCHS AS PATIENTS.
SerVian Doctor Depicts Traits Of
Royal PRtrOnS-WnIiRn Likes to
Display His Little Learning.

A distinguished Servian doctor who
has had much experience with royal
patients gives some Of his impressions
of crowned heads when suffering.
Emperor William, he says, Is docile
but has mania for discussing with his
doctors and likes to parade all the med
ical knowledge he has gained through
well-known medical books.
King Edward VII. is the gentlest pa
tlent imaginable He obeys without maxi
ing the slightest observation.
The queen of Holland is a very unruly
sick person. She does not like to have a
physician touch her, even to feel her
pulse
The car and the sultan are very diff
ficult patients. The former is highly
impressionable and has an instructive
fear of the most inoffensive remedy.
The latter mistrusts his doctor and Is
always afraid of being poisoned. He
wants every medicine prescribed ana
lyzed by his special chemist before iii
administered.

GERMANS DEFEATED.
HererOs Tribes Murder Settlers and
Threaten WindhOek.

Threaten WindhOek.
BERLIN, Jan. 26. - An official dis
patch from Windhoek, German South
west Africa, says the Germans have
lost heavily in unsuccessful attempts
to relieve Okahandja, that five settlers
ana their entire families have been
murdered and that the Hereros are
threatening Windhoek.
A German patrol which engaged the
natives near Hope Farm lost a reserve
officer, Won Boysen; one noncommis-
stoned officer and six men killed. The
garrison of Windhoek numbers go
men, part of the force being horsemen,
with two machine guns.
Light has been thrown by the Frank
fort Zeitung on some of the contribu-.
tory causes of the Hereros rising by
statements made by traveller who has
just returned from Windhoek and Okla
handja. The merchants and the trad
ers allied with them are charged with
purposely involving the natives in debt.
According TO this traveller, the traders
are largely discharged soldiers, whom
the merchants equip with wagons and
from sixteen to twenty oxen and goods
valued at thousands of marks
The traders sell ut first entirely on
credit not requiring any cash until
they make later trips. The improvident
natives buy largely and repeatedly on
these easy terms and the merchants
favor the system by renewing the cred
its Of the traders sometimes 10 10000
marks (S3.750D. The traders finally be-
gin collecting portions of the debts. tax
ing cattle in payment and at the same
time selling more goods on credit. The
natives are often indebted to several
traders at once.
The Frankfort Zeitung's informant
adds that he found the merchants took
an average of 20 per cent profit on the
transactions of the traders. and the lat
ter added 100 per cent and usually
made 20 per cent more on the cattle
which they took in payment.
The traders further rouse the anger
of the natives by Selling their cattle ar
bitrarily, without waiting for legal pro.
cedure. 1t is true that the authorities
forbid this. but the natives usually do
not complain, merely nursing their
grievances, and if they do complain the
police have difficulty in discovering the
offending traders
