FASHIONS LATEST
Talks for the Fashionable
Woman,

The size of the newest bag, except
where a large receptacle is special
ly required, is less exaggerated, and
leather strap handles have quite
taken the place Of chains. Many
have the sides carried up in detach-
ed flaps, hiding the frame and clasp.
Wedgewood buttons are the latest
fancy of fashionable women. The
delicately sculptured, classical, white
porcelain figures on the rich blue
ground are sometimes set In narrow
rims of copper, about which in turn
is a wider rim Of chiseled mother-of-
pearl. Four such buttons would
glorify gown.
Favorite colors for wells are pur-
pie, brick red, mole and cygnet and a
soft gray that is very becoming with
the millinery to match. Ringed net
is the fabric ;nost in demand. In
the trimming of the veils' lower edge
and sides the latest novelty is thick
silk fringe about an inch and a half
in depth, not knotted, but left hang
ing in mass Of very fine fronds.
Something new in the way of jew
eled ornaments is made so that it
may be used in several different
ways. Set with tiny diamonds it is
outlined with a narrow band that it
fashioned into bowknots at the cor
ners. Within this is a dainty de-
sign Of diamond-set leaves, while di-
H., a ic n Y0nndant
formed Of a pear-shaped topaz. 1t is
quite large enough to serve as belt
buckle. Threaded with black velvet
or tulle, makes a handsome dog col
lar for wear with low gown, or 1t
may be used as an ornament for the
front of an evening gown.
Dainty lingerie bonets, trimmed
with flutings of fine linen and ba-
tiste and edged with narrow Valen-
ciennes lace, will be worn by small
children this spring and during the
coming summer.
Soft silks and silk materials to be
had this season are excellent for
simple style of evening dress, and
there should be always at hand one
good silk or satin evening frock to
be ready for emergencies. The flow
cred and striped silks are attractive
! and even the plain satins made up
quite simply are being worn a great
deal. Satin, if gracefully draped and
| il of a becoming shade, requires lit
| tie fancy trimming. Gold or silver
embroidery on a white or yellow satin
is now preferred to any lace, and
only small amount of the embroid-
cry is required to trim a gown most
effectively.

A Specific for Grip.
From the New York Times.

The Times advises its readers not to let
the disease run it's course" but when they
feel the oncoming symptoms Of influenza
to consult their physicians. A writer In
the Medical Record of February % has
announced that both prophylactic remedy
and practically specific for almost every
STEP stage and variety Of la grippe. when
free from serious early complications" are
now a part of the medical armament. The
specific Is gelsemium, the tincture of the
fresh root. The fresh plant tincture only
is endowed with medicinal virtue, the ordi-
nary fluid preparations of the dry root
being quite valueless in cases of influenza.
The plant is highly poisonous, and the dis
ease requires careful dosage. which must
be reduced as the patient improves. OF
course any attempt at self-administration
of this drug would be criminal folly. The
important fact to the lay mind is that a
specific exists, and that 1t may be success
fully administered by a competent ply
sician.
Immunity to patients who have previous
ly suffered from repeated attacks of inf1u-
enza is given by a like cautious treatment
with arsenic as a prophylactic. Sometimes
the dosage OF this powerful agent must be
suspended at intervals, for not few pa
than to the disease; but 1t rarely fails, and
it conquers the miasm in more than "a per
cent of cases.
Epidemic influenza, says the writer in
the Medical Record, invaded the United
States 'in a pestilential wave from the
overfowcd banks Of the filthy Neva and
other open sewers In Russia That must
have been a long time ago. In the days
of President Jackson and his opponent,
Tyler, the infectious catarrh was known
as "Jackson's itch" and the Tyler grippe"
by their respective partisans. The Rus
SLAMS call 1t Chinese catarrh, the Germans
name it the Russian pest, the Italians refer
its origin to Germany, and in France 1t Is
known as the Italian fever and the Spanish
catarrh. The name influenza" comes from
italy. Doubtless we shall be afflicted with
the epidemic so long as immigrants con-
tinue to pour In from European countries,
or until our public sanitation shall be per-
fected. Meanwhile 1t is comforting to know
of the announcement In a reputable medi-
cal journal that a specific has been found.

insurance commissioner from 1892 until
1895. and during Mr.. Clevelands second ad-

Rasin has probably made places for many
hundreds of persons in Maryland, who ac-
cordingly feel under obligations of friend
ship toward him. He has many devoted
friends and followers who practically owe
everything they have to him.
Mr.. Rasin has often declared that he

cratic mayors Baltimore has had and the
democratic judges of the supreme bench.
many of whom were nominated and elected
through his influence.

Miss Ida Belargeon of Cavalier was
brought over this week and sent to the
hospital at jamestown for insanity. The
case is sad one. Miss Belargeon has
become possessed with an idea that she
was kidnapped when she was about 3
years old and has been kept from her
father whose name is John Phillips and
who is a millionaire. She learned of
the particulars of the kidnapping from
overhearing conversations in the Belar-
geon family and from an uncle of her
supposed father who were also connect
ed with the kidnapping. She has the
details all perfect and the board say
that she told a wonderfully interesting
story, equal to any dime novel, and when
she spoke of her supposed father, she
would weep with emotion. Her mother
was formerly a county charge at Cava-
lier and now resides at Otterbourne,
Man. Miss Belargeon was doing dress
making at Cavalier, and is a bright
looking young woman about 25 years.

A Visit to Bismarck

1t was our good fortune to spend sew
eral days with the solons at the capitol
last week and a visit among the Law
makers and friends is treat to one that
has been alternating the last few
months, shoveling coal and trying to
keep tab on the general run of country
weekly. From reading the reports. of
what has been going on at Bismarck
the last two months, in some of the
dailies, one would think there was hair
pulling and general discord between the
factions all the time. But this is not
so. 1t is claimed by those in position to
know, this has been one of the most
harmonious sessions held since state
hood, and but few questions involving
party principles have ruptured things.
When resubmission came up on

to decern who was Democrat and who
