Big Crowd At oxford Fair.

The thirty-sixth annual Fair of
the Oxford Agricultural Society,
held on Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday of last week, was a great
success, the fine weather bringing
out a big crowd. Especially was
this the case on Friday, when it is
estimated fully 10000 people were
on the grounds. The Baltimore
Central railroad was compelled to
run special train from Oxford to
Octoraro Junction in the evening
for the accommodation of the re
turning excursionists, the crowd
being too great for the regular
south bound train.
Pickpockets piled their thieving
trade and no doubt reaped rich
harvest. A number Of our citizens
were made the victims of this light
fingered fraternity, J. G. Hindman
being relieved of pocket book
which fortunately only contained
a few cents; w. j. McDougal miss
ed his pocket book on reaching
home and is something over 81
short in his cash account as a re
suit. W. o. Brumfield, of Colora
was also robbed of his pocket book
which contained $22. Dou btless
others suffered from the same
source who did not report theil
losses. Samuel Jamison, of this
town, discovered a strange ha . d il
one of his pockets but being occu
pied with assisting his wife on tht
train with one hand and carrying a
child on the other arm, was handi
capped in resenting the familiarity
before the would.be thief disap.
peared in the crowd.
In addition to those mentioned
above the Press reports Jas. Hind
man, of Elkdale, Pa, as having
been robbed of $50, Norris B.
Slack, of West Chester, $40 and
the conductor of a Baltimore Gen.
trail train $12.

day afternoon, together with a lot
of hay, grain and farm implements.
Mr.. Corriden was away at the time,

railroad men. The barn was situ-
ated close to the p, B. & W. rail

that it was set on fire by sparks
from passing engine. A colt

time perished in the flames. The
loss is partially covered by in
surance.

Well Supplied.

The young housekeeper has to pro-
tect herself, and sometimes she can do
i. only by an assumption of knowledge.
One bride, whose story is told in the
New York Press, knew so little about
housekeeping that she shuddered be-
fore the butcher and baker and the
rest of the tradesmen for fear they
would discover her ignorance. She al
ways ordered the articles with which
she had some acquaintance, and ended
her business interviews as quickly as
possible.
One day, when she was feeling
rather proud Of herself in having
learned so much from a short expert
ence, the ashman came through the
street, uttering his customary cry,
.Ash-eesI Ash-ees!" AS he neared her
window she grew more and more per-
picked.

asked herself. At last he appeared al
the back door, and there she confront

Diplomacy.
CTo be c~ontinued.)

In q Cleveland hotel the other day
a manufacturer told this anecdote OF
the late Senator Hanna:
Senator Hanna, like all good man
aging heads, was continually walking
through his mill, examining this,
watching that-picking up, in a word,
all sorts of good ideas for the better
ment of his business.
"One morning, in the machine shop,
the Senator overheard a little red
headed boy say:
~ wish / had Hanna's money, anu
he was in the poorhouse.'
Rather amused, the Senator return
ed to his Office, and ordered the boy II
be brought in TO him.
1.-THE little fellow came, and stood,
a tiny, embarrassed figure, before the
shrewd and kindly millionaire.

Senator said. We'll, suppose your wish

Decline of ChixaIrx.

In the old days men dared not talk
roughly to women, or make remarks
about them in public places. A dozen
kinsmen or friends would be ready to
avenge the light remark or stop the
lying mouth, but to-day men say in
casual conversation things that would
have been fatal a hundred years ago.

way, either by rudeness or familiar
ity, will not feel any chastisement he
may receive cutie like he would q good

with so many other good things.

Fashion Notes.

The plain gored skirt is becoming
more popular.
Wash aannels are out in hundreds
of new designs.
Ribbons trim everything from hat to
the slipper toe.
Fashion declares we must array our
selves in stripes.
Even real lace is now embroidered
with colored silk thread.
Many of the embroidered trimmings
are coarse but effective.
The mixing of many colors is still a
strong feature at the milliner's.
A very silky make of alpaca is used
for tailor-made gowns and others.
The short kimonos look much like
Japanese coats, and fasten with little
silk frogs.
Some of the handsomest chiffon
gowns are trimmed with stitched
straps of cloth.
Velvet ribbons are much used, par
ticularly to run through the wide
quillings of the tulle skirts.
Silk net dresses in blue, brown, gray
or plum are trimmed with strappings
and picked-out ruches of taffeta.

RuIes for Sewing.

The rule for frilling is one and a
quarter the length of the edge to be
trimmed.
In facing a sleeve turn it, and place
the facing inside the sleeve before
sewing it on.
Gathers should always be set on the
right side, but eve with a needle;
use a large pin.
When sewing on a button place the
knot on the right side Of the cloth d.
rectly under the button.
In sewing a seam put the stitches
closely together, but lightly, into the
cloth, being careful not to pull the
thread tight. as this causes the seam
to draw.
Always use, when sewing. a double
thread for gathering and as fine q
thread and needle as the garment will
allow. When threading your needle
make the knot on the end broken from
the spool.
