. The first showing Of early spring
street hats was made yesterday in
Eugene Edges millinery depart
ment and was pronounced success
in every particular. The ladies
fairly thronged the department and
Mr.. Edge informed the Eagle that
his sales were much larger than
they have ever been on such &C.
casion. Misses Contois and Mid.
dleton. who are in charge of the
department, made a most favorable
impression on all callers, and were
in turn much pleased with the
taste and appreciation manifested
by the ladies of Bryan and vicinity.
They will make another and more
elaborate showing of street hats
previous to the opening. French
pokes are much worn this season
and the most popular colors are
champagnes and Dutch blues, while
all blacks are also in favor. The
majority of the hats shown are
original in design.
The improvements being made
in Mr.. Edges store add to the shelf
room, light and ventilation and
when all are completed it will be
very attractive and serviceable.

SUES INDIAN
FOR DIVORCE

Skenadore her Indian husband charg-
ing desertion. The question at issue is
whether the unwrltten Indian law that
squaw shall support the. brave is APP
plicable or the white mans law.
The earliest tradition OF Indian life
provides that the squaw must support
the husband. who must be brave ana
Ernt. but never do the mental labor
of the fields or household Now the
true Indian woman inheritS this idea.
and it is bred in her throughout her
life, but with q white woman it is

would show infdelity OIL the part OF
Mrs. Skenadore to be the reason of the
desertion of the husband. AS aban-
donment among the Indians is an al
most ulheard of thing the grounds
upon which he may be justified will
be precedent for future cases. Mrs.
SkenaGore appeared in court with her

PArch, nent,

Parchment is the skin of sheep or
other animals prepared in sheets to
render them fit for being written upon
The heavier parchment, used for
drumheads, is made from skins of
asses, older calves, wolves and goats.
All these are similarly prepared. The
skin, being freed from the hair, is
placed in a lime pit to cleanse it from
fat. The pelt is then stretched upon
frame. care being taken that the
surface is free frem wrinkles. The
flesh is then pared off with a circular
knife. 1t is then moistened and whit
ing spread over it. The workman then
with large pumice stone rubs the
skin. He next goes over 1t with an
iron instrument and rubs it carefully
with pumice stone. without chalk. The
skin is gradually dried, tightening be-

Peculiarities OF NAPOLEON.

Napoleon's father was topper, a man
utterly lacking in moral sensibility,
and his sisters were immodest and hys-
terical. According to DR.. Cabanas,
Pauline was particularly SO. Napoleon
himself was exceedingly sensitive to
atmospheric changes, was headachey
and had auditory illusions. He had
twitchings of the arms, the shoulders
and the lips. He was at times tho
most irritable of men, often being I'M
approachable His mania for destruc
ton was such that he whitfield pieces
Of furniture. broke articles presented
to him, pinched babies while pretend
ing to caress them and took keen de-
light in shooting Josephine's rarest
birds. The slightest opposition threw
him into a paroxysm of rage. But in
a campaign all weaknesses vanished.
His pulse ranged ordinarily between
thirty and thirty-fiv beats minute
and never went above fifty-five. The
usual pulse rate is about seventy-twO
minute.

The Eyes of the Eawie.

That the eagle has most wonderful
power of vision is shown from the fact
that it fiies in almost straight line for
any object which it desires to secure.
Baby eagles also possess this farsight-
edness. Long before human eyes can
discern them their gaze is fixed on dis
lance, and their cries Of welcome to
their parents are shrill and continuous.
The structure of their eyes makes them
peculiarly strong. The brightest glare
of sunlight does not affect them. Ea-
giles do not fly as high in the air as
some other birtls, but their flight is
very long and steady. A popularity
about eagles is that they are constant
to their mates, not changing every sea-
son, as most birds do. Sometimes the
same pair of eagles will return to the
same nest year after year. They seem
to become acquainted with the locality,
and If they are not disturbed are regu-
lar tenants

finds the American abroad both civil
and genial: II climbed to the top Of
Notre Dame in Paris and found there
a party from across the Atlantic enjoy

young man in the group offered me a
refreshing drink. At the top of the
lacework in marble which is the Spire
of Milan cathedral three English speak
ing men met accidentally-an Ameri-
can, an English clergyman and myself.
He who hailed from the land of the
stars and stripes offered me his field
glass; the other did not even return
our good morning salutation. In a
beer garden at Lucerne | followed the
custom Of the continent and asked per-
mission before sitting at table of
those already seated there. The only

ply was an Englishman, and the only
one to make excuses for him was a
young man who preixed his words
