OUTING HAT.

ings Over the shoulders the collar
runs into a point to give a becoming
width to the shoulders. Two tab fronts
are made by lace motifs, and the whole
collar is outlined with a deep chiffon
ruffie with ruched edge. A high col
lar may be added if desired, but the
collar described is finished at the neck
by velvet ribbon tied in bowknots
every few inches Two of these knots
down the front serve as fastenings.

RernIntinr Commerce.

While discussing the proposed regu-
lation Of railroads by the general gov
ernment it is we'll for the people to
have in mind two or three important
facts bearing upon the case. Congress
has power under the constitution to
regulate commerce among the several
states, Indian tribes and foreign coun-
tries" There were no railroads in ex-
istence when that article was framed,
and commerce was carried on by wag-
on transportation on land and vessels
of various kinds upon water. What
ever Interpretation is put upon the pro
vision with respect to railroads may be
applied to all forms of service engaged
in interstate commerce.
The railroads have grown up under
charters granted by the states, and
probably no charter Of Importance il
existence is exempt from alteration
amendment or repeal by the power
granting the same.

Spain maintained a conflict of half
a century with the aborigines of Vene-
Euela before she succeeded in establish

try for good in 1906, when Nliranda's
rebellion opened a new career for the
Venezuelans. For generation the
country adhered to the group Of re-
publics formed by the genius of Boil
var and in 1880 cut loose under a new
constitution. the first Of eight that have
been proclaimed since the separation.
Venezuela's most prosperous period
was under the reign of Guzman Blan-
co.. who ruled virtually as dictator
from 1870 to 1889. Blanco improved
the harbors Pnd the system of interior
transportation and gave concessions to
foreigners which have become the sub
ject of dispute. Five rulers have sue

cratic, elective, representative salterna-
tive and responsible"

people read WIN uv1uIry, Uur are not
satisfied until they have asked some
one who is supposed to know whether
the marvels depicted are possible. II
answered in the negative they are not
convinced, but turn again to the books
for solace. And some Of the marvellous
creations Of Jules Verne's fertile i'm
agination have materialized in fact, so
the doubters have come TO grief.
In their contents the books Of Jules
Verne make good the promise Of the ir-
resistible titles. He carried his char
acters around the world In eighty days
to the center Of the earth, to the
moon and 10000 leagues under the
sea. Verne's people lack personals
ty, they have no life and blood, but
they go through the most astounding
adventures, and these are so skillfully
worked up as to put reason to sleep.
