Nine Hundredths of an Inch Fell Last
Night.

The temperatures today are above
what would have been ordered as far
comfort is concerned, though the indi-

Last night there was so much humid

which amounted to .09 of an inch,

have been.
There is a refreshing breeze blowing

wb,cb First Kiur or Church ?

Is .the King" or 'the Church" entitled to first place on the toast program at a club feast? This delicate uestion of loyalty has disrupted the Presbury Odd Fellows, and bids fair to come in for countrywide discussion. For sixteen years past the Vicar of Presbury had presided at the annual dinner of the lodge and proposed the toasts of ''The Church" and The King in the order named. Until this year nobody had ever risen to question hte proprtety of giv- ing God precedence over King. Imagine his feelings, then, wher a day or two before the dinner this week the vicar was waited upon by a delegation of prominent citizens and requested to give the foAst to The King" first place. He characterized the suggestion as an insult to the church. and declared that his visitors were advocating revolution.
 q am absolutely loyal to the King" declared the reverend gentleman. but will not leave out the church. The law of the land has always been composed of two es- tates-the church and the King-and the suggested change is most significant. can not possibly submit to it.

Peru. and Brazil It was in honor of this Lord-Admiral Coch- rane that large number of the members of the family assembled at cowes the other day, when an ornamental shieldA was pre- sented to the first class cruiser Cochrane.
 The shield is a handsome piece of plate and bears in relief a picture of the famous attack on the French fleet in the Basque Road by Lord Cochrane, and the capture of the Spanish frigate Fl Gano. Of $50 men and thirty-six guns by the sloop Speedy, of forty-six guns, Lieutenant General the Earl of Dundonald as head of this ancient Scottish family made the presentation He is best known In connection with the siege and relief of Ladysmith. his troopers being the first to enter the town upon the retreat of the besieging Boers.

 Now let the long-coats take warning from the plaited skirts. Make yours different or die. Remember that these long-coats are going to be copied be- cause they will be a pronounced style Conspicuous fashions always attract the women with no distinction of her own. So word to the wise is sufh- cient Have your long-coat different --or don't have any at all. There are always many notifications that a wo- man of taste can make that will stamp her wrap with her own individuality.

 America can never expect to lead in fashions as long as they don't carry personal conviction into their clothes the men as well as the women. The men pet on and take off their straw hats according to the calendar. Abroad a man wears a straw hat way into au- tumn if the weather is mild Such matter is really personal and not to be determined by the majority who lack the courage of originality
