FIRST TO CROSS PACIFIC.
Slde-Wheel Steamer Aroused Much
Interest In Japan.

II saw the first steamship flying the
American flag that ever crossed the
Pacific ocean enter the harbor of
H%ongkong," said Frederick R. Ster-
ling, a merchant of Hongkong.
That vessel was the Colorado, and
1t landed in Hongkong in 1859. 1t was
the first day of January, and there was
q big crowd Of people of all nationali-
ties to see her. Being a side-wheeler
of the ~old-fashioned type, she was a
curiosity. At the request of Isaac ].
Allen, the American consul general,
the ship gave an excursion around the
Island on which the city is situated. 1
was among the 1900 on board. It
was a gala day. Whistles blew, people
shouted, and numerous small sailing
boats and tugs escorted us.
"As I remember now, the vessel be-
longed to the Pacific Mail Line and
sailed from San Francisco. She made
the trip of 5000 miles in 80 days, and
when she arrived was in perfect trim
and good order. Everybody realized
that 1t means the beginning of the
great development of the Pacific"

scriptures everywhere speak of the
prime mover in evil as the devil, the
satan. He Is the great murderer. He
murdered our first parents by deceiv-
ing them, and thus induced them to be
| disobedient to their Creator
1t was recently stated in several
newspapers that in a divorce trial,
which resulted in the legal separa
ton of Pastor Russell and his wife,
about a year ago, he had said, his
love was like that of a jellyfish, in
that it went out to any spirit which
responded"
This statement distressed Russell
considerably, inasmuch as the truth
was that the remark in question was
attributed to Russell by a witness dur
ing the trial, and was emphatically
denied on the stand by him.
1t has been said of Russell that
money pours into his Office Golfers
like water" and that his sect is i'm
mensely wealthy. This is not the
case.
I'VE have sufficient" he says "and
we never take up collections, but we
have no enormous wealth. We care
only for enough to enable us to spread
our gospel to humanity wherever it is
needed"

COFFURES OF MANY KINDS

plumpness and the long oval, all Of
which are notifications of the perfect
oval face. Equally numerous are the
different varieties of the round face.
There is the so-called perfect type Of
round face-that is, neither too thin
nor too fat-the plump round face,
the broad fat face and the very round
short face. Then there is the sharp
pointed face to he considered, the n
with a %receding chin, and the type
possessing a very large or aquiline
nose, so that it can be plainly seen
that, while certain directions may be
followed with satisfactory results, it
is simply impossible to set down any
hard and fast rules, because so few
women nave features that come up
to the standard of perfection.
For instance, a perfect type of round
face may have the hair dressed high
or low, but if the face is short and
round the high couture must be adopt
ed. The fat round face, too, should
look well with high arrangement, but
the sides must be puffSd a little, or
the result will be that the fat cheeks
appear really fatter.

PASTOR WHO REACHES FOLLOW.
ERs THROUGH NEWSPAPERS.
Some Facts Concerning the Life Work
of Rev. Charles r. Russell
Who Has Been Mlsrep-
resented.

Allegheny, Pa.-One of the busiest
men in the United States is Charles
I. Russell, Of Allegheny.
Some people call him Rev. Charles
7. Russell, but he himself disclaims
all titles, believing that as Jesus and
the apostles disclaimed them SO
should he.
Russell is the leader of a religious
movement which has its followers all
over the world. He is not the orig
lnator of a sect, but simply claims
membership in the original church
institution of the scriptures, therein
described simply as 'the church,
whose names are written in heaven"
1t has nc houses of worship of
Its own, and Pastor Russell's plan
for reaching his umerou and widely
scattered followers with his discourses
is a unique one.
He travels a great deal, preaching
lin opera houses in the large cities
Of the country, and through arrange
ments with various newspapers gladly
printing the discourses because of the
increased circulation which accrues to
them through the subscriptions of
RusselPs many followers.
Thus he breaches each Sunday to a
congregation of hundreds of thou
sands.
Russell has been considerably dis.
turbed of late over false and mislead.
ing accounts Of his teachings and his
plans which have appeared in many
newspapers.
Among other things, it was recent.
ly announced that he was endeavoring
to get control of Dowie's Zion City
and turn it into a home for his fol
lowers.
Nothing could be more untrue
he declares Il have no desire for
Zion City, and there have been no ne
gotiations whatever in the matter"
1t has also been published that
Russell is "the no-hell preacher"-be
cause he teaches there is no place OIL
future fiery torment.
Pastor Russell declares that he does
not believe in hell as a place of eter
nal torment, but holds that the "sheol'
of the Old Testament and the "hades'
of the New Testament is the state O
death-that mankind, because of orig
inal sin, is under a death sentence
which affects all mentally, morally
and physically, and eliminates in the
tomb.
He holds that redemption was from
the tomb, that Christ died for humani
tvs sins, and that as a result of this
redemption all mankind is ultimately
to be released from this state Of deatf

the increased weight the ship has to

displacement enlarged by 10000 tons.

Ponaee variousIY Treated.

Hand embroidery in s~elf-color is
considered very modish on pongee.
Many very chic little French frocks
among the imported models are in
pongee Of natural tone, dull blue or
brown, embroidered in self-tone and
lightened by some contrasting touch
Of color and by lace or embroidered
batiste on the bodice. A pretty bole1,,
and skirt model in natural hued pom
gee carried out this idea successfully,
the only trimming Of the skirt being
embroidery in self-tone. The loose
little bolero, with Its loose, pic.
turesque sleeve cut in one with the
coat, also had a touch Of self-tone EN-.
broIdery, but It had, too. a CLEAN Of
vivid red in the embroidery Of the
small collar and OF the arr1hole trim
mings, and scarf ends Of black Sill

The Seasons Sashes.

Several novel kinds of sashes have
appeared this spring upon gowns de-
signed for younger women. One Of
these ribbon garnitures, made from
opalescent MORE, with a narrow black
edge, had two fine black silk tassels
dangling from the forlied points of the
"swallowtail' effect into which the
ends were divided. Another sash,
made for a charming biscuit colored
costume, vas likewise of MORE rib.

fringe harmonizing with the floral

Oriental Garments Are Costly, But Ex-
tremeIy Pretty.

There is an extraordinary demand
at present for oriental garments, espe-
cially the national costume Of China
and Japan.
The Chinese coats which were the
popular opera wraps Of last season
have been replaced this winter by real
mandarin coats, imported direct from
China, which vary in price from SIS
to $500" said a city dealer.
"a few years ago Chinese coats and
Japanese kimonos were used as dress
ing jackets and gowns. Now they
take the place Of the theater or ball
wrap and the tea gown. The most
elaborate wraps are heavily orna-
mented In gold and silver. We re

That Will Suit Round, Oval or
Long Faces.


There is nc question but. that a sue.
2essful appearance depends more on
lie couture than any other detail of
the toilet, for the handsomest gown
and the smartest hat will fail to i'm
press a beholder if the hair shows neg
Iect, lack of style or is unbecomingly
arranged, while often the plainest
trock or simplest chapeau will pass
%unobserved if the hair is prettily
dressed in becoming fashion.
The very greatest care should be ex-
Grcised in choosing ones couture, or
n changing from one mode to another.
Indeed, the safest plan is to try not
one but many styles Of hairdressing
until some model entirely satisfactory
is found and then this one should be
worn regardless of changing fashions.
Certain styles suit certain faces, one
arrangement being the more becoming
to an oval face and another to the
round face; but then all are not of the
true types. There is the short oval,
the narrow oval, oval inclining to

The New Lingerie Hat.

The new lingerie hat is shaped af-
ter the popular bowl or mushroom
model, A most delectable small af-
fair, but unhappily not as universally
becoming as the wide one of last
year, that was nice on both young
and almost-young women-although
we did see it occasionally mis-worn
by some who were in neither of these
classes. The round bowl of these
new models has a ribbon tied about
it, perhaps drawn through the holes
of embroidery, and fastened at the
back with some ends to lie against
the hair. Just in front will be placed
a huge rose of a pale yellow, and
there you have a lingerie hat that is
the newest of the new.

The girl looks at him In bewilder-
ment, but he continues:

She begins to tremble, thinking his
mind is wandering. He goes on:
And the sound Of the explosion
would not be heard there for 1000, 900
years after the ball had struck. Isn't

A Fish story.

"Trout protection! NONSENSE" said
a gunner of local eminence. Trout
are amply able to protect themselves.
Look at their de~predations among
ducks, for example, and you will agree
with me that it's the. birds that need
protection. It's a common thing for a
trout to jump from the water, seize a
duck by the neck, drag the unfortunate
fowl into the depths sufficiently to
leave its feet sticking in the air, where
1t can get no purchase upon the uni
verse, and thus drown 1t. Then the
trout picks the feathers from the bird,
eats it at its leisure and swims away
out of the Jurisdiction of the courts.
Are there any fishermen? None? Toe
bad. This would be a match for n
of their fish stories"
