ABOUT SEPARATE WAISTS.
Should Match the Skirt in Color, But the Material May Be of
 WidefVariety.

Separate waists have taken . new lease of life in spite of the fact that it is still the fashion to have waist and skirt of the same material.
 The truth is that SO long as street costumes are made with skirt and coat to match separate waists will be ne- cessity. There are quite number of new designs in these waists-some very simple, others elaborate.
 All of the latter are made with fitted Things, and are of silk, crepe de chino, lace or chiffon.
 Colored waists are no longer thought smart; they must either be made of a color to correspond with the skirt or white.
 The fashion of two or three winters ago in the shirt-waist order, worn with embroidered turnover linen collar and cuffs and fastened with pretty studs. is always good style to wear. with the plain tailor gowns. Then, for a more elaborate style, the bayadere-tucked chiffon or the lace waist with collar and pointed yoke and cuffs of applique work is most satisfactory and by no means impossibly intricate for an amateur.
 Long cloth wraps are fashionable this winter, both for afternoon and evening wear. and there are few more sensible purchases for a woman of limited means than smart cloth wrap.
 Black as well as light, cloths are fashionable this season, the smooth satin-inished cloth. and while . heavy ecru embroidery or lace adds to the elaborate appearance of the garment, quite as smart an effect is obtained by the more simple style that has long lines at braid from the shoulder to the hem at. the back of the coat. as we'll as in front.-St. Louis Republic

of Kentucky, who says:
'I may be little late to your Pos

the second verse of poem number II
(Here everybody get their Farmer

Though it seems that Seems" was
sighted, yet Poor "gleams" in the
following line has even worse treat

was like the general who could neith-

Now let's substitute "and" for "the"

Tuesday, February Z, 1905.

While the police would not allow the
boy to be interviewed, 1t was alleged
that he had confessed completely in
various fires which have occurred
here during the past few days. 1t
would appear that he started the
fires with the intention of robbing the
cash drawers during the excitement.
He was caught In one place while
trying to open safe and made his
escape. 1t was recalled by people
who were interested that Bowman
was always in sight when the fire
was discovered. He has a bad repu-
tation and is reported as saying, when
asked why he started the fires, that
II was bad company" The hay and
grain fires within four days have
numbered eight and the aggregate
loss was about $4,000. Bowman will
be given a preliminary examination
tomorrow.
Sumter News: We have had an
interesting talk lately with gentle
man who has recently had some bus
mess in Columbia, and who has spent
much time around the state house.
From him we learned more about GER
tain matters than Is told In the daily
letters and the daily reports Of the leg
islative proceedings. We are told that
wnen senator blettSe early III lhS oco-
sion offered his resolution looking to-
ward the dispensary investigation,
that the rumor was fioated around
that he and H. II. Evans had quarrel
ed. II Is to be remembered that Blease
and Evans are from the same county.
However. a few days ago. when the
Brice bill was up for consideration,
Blease made the fight against 1t. That
Thursday. when the Raysor- Manning
bill was up, that Blease again led the
fight against II, and that part Of the
time Evans was standing just behind
Blease's chair. which Is on the rear
row. Furthermore. We are informed
that early In the session Evans was
seen around the state house, but very
little: but now. since this bill has
passed, he Is there all the time. He
hopes to kill 1t In the house and now
i'm the Hobbies he Is always talking In

them at the hotels. Our informant
added. I cannot swear that he Is this
year sending liquor to members as
presents, but / know he has done 1t IN
the past, and do know that this year
he Is drinking with members within
