MAYOR CAYNOR
 RESTED WELL
Not Considered Necessary to Rc- move it At This Time.

New York, Aug l3.-Mayor Vim. I. Gaynor aWoke today from the most refreshing and long continued nights sleep he has had since he was shot in the neck by James J. Gallagher last Tuesday, with every indication that he is making steady progress to- ward recovery. This word was brought from the mayors bedside by his secretary, Robert Adamson, who reported the patient cheerful and talkative and displaying an increased appetite.
 One of the hospital physicians add ed the following information: "The bullet is lodged in the tissues and is easily accessible. It could be extract ed in five minutes if it were neces- ary, but an operation is regarded as at the present and would anly add new channel of possible infection. The wound has been dress- ed only with chloride of mercury. No antiseptics have been introduced into the wound"
 The following official bulletin was issued shortly before 9 o'clock:
 "The mayors condition is gratify- Ing He slept eight hours last night (Signed) "WM J. ARLITZ, M. D."

ROAD DISTRICT
 IS GROWING Sulphur Springs and Cam den road Property Owners
 Start Movement. OTHERS TO JOIN THEM Men Who Recently Bought 23,O0O Acres of Land Here, Want Road
 To Extend Further.
OTHERS TO JOIN THEM

O1lo" eIe receipt Ol leLJer from Attorney Ben J. Altheimer of Chicago, a former resident of this city who recently, with his brother in-law, M. Rosenfield, owner of the Sunnybrook distilleries, purchasel twenty-three thousand acres of tim Der and farm lands in this and ad- joining counties, movement has been launched that may have a ten- dency to extend the proposed gravel road in Improvement District Mo- 8, seven miles. The District was re- gently formed by property owners along the Sulphur Springs and Cam den roads, ard was originally intend ed to be about thirteen miles long. Practically all of the property own CTS in that section of this county have signed the petition, asking Judge James Gould of the county court, to create the District and it is assured.
 In letter to Judge Gould yester- day, MT. Altheimer states that MT. Rosenfield would sign a petition to extend the proposed road to the Jei- ferson county line. As they own greater part of the lands lying along this road, in this and adjoining coun- ties. the extension could be easily made. The Chicagoans manifest a desire to sign the petition, without even inquiring into the probable cost of the District or the taxation that would result, and their enterprise is to be commended. Property owners along the road to Locust Cottage and Double Wells favor the extension of the boundry lines of the proposed Improvement District No. 3 and they will in all probability join Sulphur Springs and Camden road residents in their movement. The letter to Judge Gould from MT. Altheimer fol- lows,
 Judge James Gould,
 Pine Bluff, Ark.
 My Dear Judge:-I see from the papers that you are at Pine Bluff and in politics again. Success to you-I also see that you are trying to do something that will be of more bene- fit to you and the county than politi- cal spirations-boosting the forma- tion of a. district to macadamize the road to Sulphur Springs and beyond. Nothing will benefit the county more than such action, and I do hope that while you are getting up the district, | it will be so extended as to include the road to Locust Cottage, via Double Wells. I was recently in that part of the ccounty and was surprised at the nice little farms and white set tiers there. l am sure that MT. Ros- enfield would be heartily in favor cf such a plan, and as the Kendall lands are almost one half of the lands to be affected, his signature at the proper time will be a great help in the formation of the district. There is plenty of gravel along the line and the cost should be reasonable-yeiy smalll indeed compared to the bene- fits.
 am looking forward to great do- ings this fall and hope our hopes vii; be realized. With kindest regards,
 Your friend,
 BEN J. ALTHEIMER.

PrccrasTination la expressing sympa- thy to . eeneaved family is the height of bad form. Therefore the instant a death is known the bereavement should be acknowledged. To send flowers is always desirable and may be done even in the case of formal acQuaint ance. but it Is aH expense that is not necessary. If flowers are sent they may accompany the note of sympathy. but no reference must be made to them in the note. If the box is sent with out a letter visiting card aeeompa- nies it. When the recipient is formal acquaintance note may be omitted Sincere sympathy being written on the card
 When the person bereaved is known only slightly and flowers are omitted a visiting cani may be either mailed or left at the door. In either case Sym nathy" CT something similar should be written on the card. When it is left in person the individual for whom il is intended is not asked for. il being un- derstood that these in deep mourning are not able to receive any but the im- mediate family.
 To intimate friends flowers may be sent as soon as news of death in the family is known. and more may go on the day of the funeral unless the fam fly expresses wish that they shall be omitted for the casket When the lat ter is the case 1t is the height of bad form to send flowers. A note alone Is sufficient

When to Shake Hands.

When to shake hands is a subject which depends on circumstances but a few general rules may be given.
 When a man is introduced to a wo- man she does not shake hands with him unless he is distinguished or q great deal older than herself If he IS the husband or brother of the woman making the introduction 1t is natural to receive him cordially by shaking hands. but it is not usual to do so fl he is a mere acquaintance
 A hostess should shake hands with all the guests who come to her house. both on their arrival and departure. Women do not shake hands when in- troduced to each other, but merely bow. When. however. a young girl is presented by d friend to married woman the latter generally shakes hands with her. but the girl should not make the first advance.
 Men shake hands when introduced to each other as an expression of good will.
 When leaving an entertainment . man shakes bands with the hostess. and he may do so with any friends wh, are near. but he should not. of course go about shaking hands gen orally.

Marking Bridal Silver.

There Is fancy inst now in certain families 10 have wedding silver mark cd with the initials of the bridegroom rather than the bride. This Is sn Eng fish custom which has never found favor over here. and the innovation arouses much discussion.
 AS the silver is given to the bride often by her own family the American form of marking is more appropriate and is much more used.
 \ rather new marking that is re vivai from colonial days is a compro- mise Plain block letters are used. \ single one at the top is the initial of the bridegroom's family name, while directly under it is the initial of the first name of the bridegroom to the left and that of the bride to the right.
 Where there is crest In the family of the bride 1t Is often used in marking the silver above the monogram or ini- tials. Though sometimes done. 1t Is not good taste to mark the wedding silver with the crest of the bride groom's family, especially when the silver is given by the brides people and friends.
 It is equally bad taste when girl has been given old family silver that has come down through generations in her fianee's family to mark 1t with her own initials. Should there be no chfl. dren such heirlooms naturally should go back to the mans family. though the bride may have life interest In them

Developing Good Taste.

The woman who has only limited sum to spend on her clothes may think that visiting shops to look at lovely things sic must not even think of buy ing Is q foolish waste of time, but it can really be made an exceedingly profitable occupation. Good taste in dress eau be developed in the same way as correct judgment In other mat ters of art namely. by studying the best models.
 If the Impecunious one will make up her mind to use he creations of those who hold fhe first place in the dress making world as a means of education and to reIinquish ali thought of posses sion they will become a source of end less pleasure to her.
