ALWAYS REsoURCEFUL.

The American woman is full OF re-
source. | saw one the other day last
week, when the temperature was some
thing terrific, wearing dark blue
frock, that, on a second glance, showed
itself to consist of skirt of dark blue
fine cloth and tucked blouse bodice
Of dark blue moussellne de sole; she
couldn't have thought of anything
quieter or cooler. This blouse bodice,
which one imagines she had got made
to match the skirt or her tailor cos
tune, was very prettily maneuvered
with dark blue embrolderiess and 1t
had such a nice quiet look and was so
very suitable, as she had a stout
figure, not one made for light garb.
Many tricks of dress can be leaNned
by observing the ways of Americans,
young and thin, or middle.aged and
given to mbonpoint,--London Graphic

A new danger from automobiles
vas developed in New York city the

on the crank shaft Of the auto, which
was still running, and was wound up
so that her scalp was torn from her
head.

Texas Is neck and neck with Illinois
in the race for the largest railroad
mileage, states the Louisville (KyO
Courier Journal. Illinois has been in
the lead for some time but IL looks as
il she would not long hold the su.
premacy. In the last authentic report
Illinois is credited with 1868, Texas
1l,4S9, Pennsylvania lO,S20, Iowa $500,
and New York S,lSg miles. BY the
rate OF increase Texas, which was
only fourteen miles less than Illinois,
will go to the head Of the list AS in
dicatIng her possibilities for future de.
velopment 1t may be noted that If she
had as many miles of road as Illinois
in the ratio of area she would have a
mileage of Asses, but If no more in
proportion to population the number
would be 4,210 less.

HANDSOME NEW
VESSEL IS NOW
IN PORT
The NakOmiS, Owned ByPenSaCOIa
Parties, is Here to Receive
Cargo.

The handsome schooner Nakomis.
owned by Pensacola parties, is N
port, and is preparing to commence
loading a cargo of lumber for Cuban
ports. The vessel, which was pur.
chased over a year since is owned by
John Christie, and Arthur and Thomas
Johnson.
The Nakomis reached port during
he latter portion of last week, and
came over to the city to commence
taking on her cargo. She is a vessel
capable Of carrying about 100000
superficial feet Of lumber, and has
a net tonnage Of 245.
She was purchased in New York.
and this is her first visit to the home
port, as she has been engaged in other
trade since becoming the property Of
local men.
The owners decided, when the
schooner reached here to make a
change in masters, and upon her ar.
rival Captain Boddam was placed in
command. He Is an old and expert
enced mariner and will carry the
schooner out on her next voyage.
