AN ESKIMO WHO COULDN'T STAY
CIVILIZED.

An Eskimo lad who was brought to
New York in 1896 by Commander
Peary has grown tired of his adopted
land, has denounced civilization, and is
now working his way back up through
Canada to the land of his fathers. The
boys name is Meme, and he comes
from the region of the Humboldt glacier
on the northwest coast of Greenland,
his people being the most northerly
race, living within two hundred and
eighty miles of the Pole Meme is
the last survivor of a small party of
Eskimos which accompanied Peary back
to New York All the others died of
tuberculosis. His father S body was
embalmed and put on exhibition with
other relies of the expedition, and the
skeleton is now on view in the Museum
of Natural History in New York. Meme
was adopted by the superintendent of
the museum and it was while attend
ing Manhattan College that he decided
to 60 back to the Gland of the mid
night SUM- The New York World quotes
his letter of farewell to his friend Mr..
Beecroft. He says:

Bill Barlow of Wyoming told of one

his former editorial associate, Bill Nye.
There had been railroad accident

It is impossible for me to convey to you my idea and feelings in regard to the cure of Diy husband, which cer- tainly Is deserving of a grateful re- tered our home smiling and happy, that fully realized the great good that your wonderful treatment had done for us. Delighted and thankful: I felt that the greatest blessing had been bestowed on our home. How Ionged in my heart for the same com fort to be the reward of many suffer- ing wives.
 My husband loked so well. his eyes so bright and clear, with an expression of peace and happiness, rejoicing that he was relieved from the curse of drink.
 We cannot speak too highly of your wonderful treatment. When anyone requests my opinion in regard to treatment of this nature. l leave them fully convinced that there is nothing to compare with the James Method of treatment. With greatful heart. I

Decrees of Pads
 And Fashions
Some of The New Waists Open in
 Fruit.

The new silks are superb.
 Many of the new waists open in front.
 Hats should be, above all. slender looking
 Flowers have largely taken the place of feathers.
 There is quite a vogue for Turkish Flace at present.
 The new Pierrots are decidedly flimsy in appearance.
 The coming summer will be great one for embroidery.
 New boots are being made of both serge and cravanette.
 The bronze shoe and bronze slipper are with us once more. Of the double width modish satins there is an endless display. Gloves and shoes are being matched to the gowns more than ever. All sorts of odd and quaint trim mings seem to be coming into play. The Directoire tunic of real lace is new and exceedingly pretty. The Directoire satins are to be had in all the lovely new colors.
 CIoaks for day and evening wear will be more elaborate than ever. Art ticking, braided in fancy de- signs, Is much used for bureau covers. The calash idea of 17S0 is reproduced in the operahood of this season.
 French and Japanese cotton crepes are as popular on hats as for waists. Plain colored satin ribbons, made into rosettes, are fad of the moment.
 Yeida braid scarfs will be used as drapery on many Sof the new spring hats.
 All the blues are to be popular, up to the faintest Marie Antolnette tint.
 Some crude colors appear, notably a nd erariSh
 Austrian crochet lace Is much used, especially for doillies and tray cloths. AS handsome as possible is the new coteIe, which is simply French for rib l bed.
 The buttons of mirror glass are l lovely and are quite refined IT not too large.
 strings serving no practical purpose will be a feature of the new millinery
 Shirred Things of soft satin often finish the brims of some of the smart est hats.
 Scarfs of black tulIe draped arounj the shoulders are very smart for even- ing wear.
 Staight and somewhat narrow skirts will be very fashionable as the sum mer advances.
 Every one of the pink gowns 1T various shadings must have relieving touch of black.
 One of the fancies for the new season will be all-over soutache fol yokes and sleeves.
 Embroidered linen turnovers ant Dutch collars of linen or lace are here in charming variety.
 Little princess tunics are being worn mostly with side opening, and button ing nearly to the hem.
 The old-fashioned toe slipper witt big square gold or silver or bronz, buckle Is most molish.

 The sheerest, of lingerie waists are decorated with soutache braid. along the edge of laces and tucks, pleats and medallions.-
 One of the new fashions is the over- blouse. made of net and braided all over with soutache. It Is worn with any sort of gown.
 A trimming that will be popular in the spring gowns is a lattice work. made of the material of the gown. of velvet and braid.
 smart touch upon the spring milli- nery is the upstanding aigrette which Is placed right in the middle of the front.
 The crazed for embroideries on every description of gown still continues, the embroideries being chiefly of the gilt tering kind.
 One of the most becoming head orna- ments seen lately was a filet of black VelVet eInproldofSu WiIu stifer ana green thistles. Gowns of coarse cotton net em- | broidered in a heavy crude darning stitch are to be worn in not only white but colors.
 | The old polonais, that recalls the garment of the last century if it does not copy 1t outright, Is seen on some | of the costumes
 Most of the coats are straight around the lower edge, only a few showing the points which were almost universal in the past season.

 The crepe de chimes are as good as ever. ranging from the simplest to the richest, mostly ,satiny weaves.
 With the coming of summer fluffy ruffles will take the place Of the severely classical vogue in touettes.
 Linen Dutch collars with two rows and an edge of real cluny insertion and an edge of lace are very stylish'
 The Princess dress of last year Is remodelled this season with. long sleeves and a very short waist effect.

 The newest madras curtains no longer show the deep border at the bottom of the curtains, but use as a frieze.
 It is a foregone conclusion that we shall have tunic effects and more tunic effects during the coming season.
 For ornaments on the fronts or sides of the Directoire robes the immense clasps and buckles are very elegant.
 Dainty shirtwaists are being shown made of printed white shirting and trimmed with borders of the same ef- feet.
 A curious novelty among the new trimmings Is washable tinsel. Ii comes in various combinations of edg- ings. insertions and all over em- broideries.

Maddox of Montgomery. many years ago. and later died, leaving four children. grand children of Lieutenant Williamson. Three of these still live gomery. Mrs. Maddox younger sister died soon after reaching young womanhood. leaving many friends in Montgomery and will be remembered by them as Willie Williamson.

 Such was the brief message which came from a stranger to the father of Lieutenant Williamson late in October 1864, at his home in Lowndesboro, Lowndes county
 From this communication. 1t was conjectured by the family that the Lieutenant had made his escape from Johnson's Island where he had been a prisoner since the fall of Port Hud- son, Miss, In July, 1863.
 Nothing more was heard from Lieu tenant Williamson till about the 1st of December. when a notice. something like the' following. was read at the fireside of the family one morning late in November, from The Montgomery Advertiser:
