MILLINERY FOR SPRING.
Large. Picturesque Hats More Popular than
Very Small Shapes.

one OF the most notable facts brought out by the
eXmbiuon OF new millinery, which has been in
progress FOR the last couple OF days at Lord &

has been a reaction against the extremely small
hat Small hats there are. little flower tooues

tailored gowns, but there is a decided tendency
toward hats Of the large, picturesque style the

BERTHS VIOLATE LAW,
Shipmasters of TITO Companies
Fined $1,000 Each.

Two steamship companies which operate between
New-York and Mediterranean ports have put into
use combination berths for the steeraSe passen-
gers. in violation OF the laws of this country and
the masters OF two vessels will have to pay the
United States government 5000 each.
The steamships in question have recently at much
cost, equipped the sleeping quarters for steerage
passengers with combination berths. The frame
work Of these berths is of steel. The upper berth
is stationary but the lower one when not in use
be lifted up against the under side Of the top
berth. The space 80 gained has been utilized for
a table BY this arrangement the steerage passen-
gers have been fed table in the space taken UP
for sleeping.
The fact that such scheme resulted in much
economy in space has caused several other COM
panies TO contemplate adopting it.
1t is maintained that there are obvious objections
to this scheme the score of cleanliness
1t is said that the steamship companies will fight
the decision.

A room AND A RoBBER.

Ny Uncle Joseph Fuller was a we'll
to-do farmer. among the richest in the
Ohio county in which he lived. He was
not only a good farmer but a good
business man in all but one thing. Dur
Ing the first year of his married life,
and just as he was getting a fair start,
bank broke, and he was q loser to
the tune of $500. From that day to
his death he would not put another dol
lar into the hands Of d banker. When
he sold live stock, wheat wool, butter
or cheese, the money was retained in
the house until otherwise invested. This
fad of his came to be known to hun
dreds of people, but only on one occa-
sion did any one ever seek to take adj
vantage of il.
During the summer vacation I lived
with Uncle Joe on the farm. IIospi-
/ tality ruled in the big farmhouse. No
tramp ever asked for food and lodgings
/ that he didn't get 1t, and the stranger
who came along and stayed over night
was not allowed to pay a bill. There
/ might be 81, 900 in the house at the time
/ the stranger was stopping over night,
but It was never suspected that he
might be after the money. When the
would-be robber at last arrived he came
4 in broad daylight, and was man
whom nobody would have suspected in
the least.
The farmer whose land adjoined on
J the right had a son who was born an
! idiot. The child grew up without be-
! ing sent to an asylum or without being
4 held morally responsible at home for
any of his actions. There was nothing
vicious about him. On the contrary,
he was very mild hammered, and would
lose his temper only after long and
persistent provocation- As usual thing
he was content to stand around and
grin at folks, sometimes answering a
question and sometimes maintaining
silence.
From the time he was five years old
he had been a visitor at Uncle Joe's.
He sometimes remained there over
night. The lad and I always got along
together very well, and after I had
known him for three or four years
discovered that curiosity was his lead
ing trait.
He wasn't curious as other boys are,
but after arriving at the age of ten he
took to running around the country at
night. He committed no damage what
ever, but would be discovered looking
into windows. perched up in fruit
trees and sometimes hidden away
down cellar. He did not know the
value of money, but whenever he saw
any enc have silver or bills he showed
every anxiety to possess himself Of the
cash.
on q certain night when I was at
