Paris Pattern No. 1895, All Seams
Allowed. - The dressing sack that
hangs with straight lines of fullness
has much to commend it, and quite
the most attractive model shown this
season has three box-plaits, as illus
trated, in the front and back. A fiat
collar with rounded points and
trimmed with ruffle of embroidery
on the edge is used for finishing the
neck and the same embroidery appears
on the three-quarter sleeves below the
band. There is no visible closing, the
middle front box-plait concealing the
buttons and buttonholes. The pattern
is in four sizes sc, 40 and Al

dressing-sack requires five yards of
material 20 inches wide, 25s yards

The Great Men Of Erin.

Who can forget the great seats of
learning which adorned Ireland before
the period of her strife? These drew
men from far and wide to drink from
the fountains of her knowledge, to nit
in the light of her leaders of thought,
and to receive from her lessons of sci
ence, as men came from all parts of
Egypt to receive the full ear of corn
from Joseph. Are not the names of
Sheridan, Oliver Goldsmith and Tom
Moore an ornament to the worlds lit
erature? And who can read the
speeches of Curran, Grattan and She'll
and fail to recognize true eloquence,
or those of Edmund Burke and Daniel
O'Conneil and not realize what Ire
land might have been under favorable
conditions.

It might not be considered as being
strictly a part Of the work of revising
the Dingley tariff but would be taken
zip separately. Secretary Wright asked
to be heard further on the subject as
soon as he could gather more informa-
ton. He said he favored a limited free
entry on sugar and tobacco from the
Philippines.
Secretary Wright said that the pro-
duction of sugar in the Philippines
would not increase to any extent. Rep
rcSo ntatiVe Fordney of Michigan, who
has q large number of sugar beet farm
ers among his constituents. told the
secretary that the same argument was
put forth with regard to the Cuban
sugar several years ago and yet the
production in Cuba had increased very
largely, and the American beet sugar
industry had not increased very much.
"The beet sugar people say that the
American Sugar Refining Co. has no
interest in their factories" said the
secretary, referring to the so-called
trust" yet three years ago they said
a trustee, understood to represent the
American Sugar Refining Co, owned
Il per cent of the stock of all the beet
sugar factories That may be the rea-
son why the beet sugar industry in tins

form Association in this city and 1t is
said throughout the world. are inclined
to the belief that the sudden deaths
of the rulers of the empire spell Moth
ing but reaction. These reformers
boldly assert that the Emperor's TAX
ing off was the result of foul play.
They apparently are not concerned as
to the manner of the Empress Do
wager's death but declare that if the
Emperor had survived the Dowager,
he would have given a new impulse
TO the reforms which he advocated in
1898, while temporarily advised by
Kang Yu Wei, now the head of the
Chinese reform movement throughout
the world. Kang Yu Wei barely es-
capped with his life when the Empress
Dowager became aware Of the pro-
gressive influence he was exerting
over the Emperor and when she or
dered the beheading of all the new
| idea councillors.
The followers in this city of the re-
form movement headed by Kang Yn
Wei are in something of a fement
and declare that the dominance of
Yuan Shat ki viceroy of Pechi-Li and
president OF the board of foreign re-
| lations, who is generally reported now
| to be in control of affairs, means a
reaction.

| branch in this city, which includes in
| it's membership a daughter of the
great reformer Kang Yu Wei himself,
gave out tonight a copy and transa-
| tion OF a code dispatch received today

announced, is as follows:

peror Please cable to Pekin to attack

street headquarters of the association
| that identical dispatches had been
| sent to branches of the reform asso-
| citation in all sections of the world and
that demands would be made upon
| Prince Chun, the new regent, to de-
pose Yuan Shat Kai from power, and
| to DO away with him." 1t was de-
| clared that Prince Chun's failure to
