ing in strength and free SO far from
any trace of blood poisoning, Mayor
Gaynor is one step nearer recovery
from the bullet wound inflicted on
Tuesday by James j. Gallagher.
He rested well Saturday night, spent
q satisfactory morning, took nourish-
ment at intervals with satisfaction,
had his wound dressed early and was
pronounced looking fine" by the ply
sicians and was resting easily last
night.
During the day his average tempera-
ture was 80 degrees, so near normal
and so devoid of fluctuations that his
surgeons are positive that no blood
poisoning has developed.
At the Hudson county Jail in Jersey
City, Gallagher attended morning
mass, then spent an uneventful day in
his cell.
Prayers for Recovery.
Prayers for the wounded MAYORS re.
covery were offered throughout the
city Sunday. Protestant, Catholic and
Unitarian congregations bowed their
heads while clergymen prayed that he
might be spared. Rev. William Will.
kinson, preaching on the grounds of
the uncompleted Episcopal cathedral
OF st. John the Divine in the upper
part of the city said in part:
"A free people should make deadly
assaults upon it's officers a capital
crime. Christian men and citizens of
all classes should rise in resentment
against lawlessness and against the
carrying of concealed weapons. With
three presidents dead by violence and
Mayor Gaynor alive by miracle, the
Church of God should teach and
preach obedience to law"

GROWING COUNTRIES.

! The census department OF Canada
estimates the present population Of
the Dominion to be 7,350.ooO. The dis
tribution by sections is: Maritime
provinces. 1,O37.112; Quebec. 2.Oss.-
461: Ontario. 2,61s.O OPS: Western prov
inces. 1871, 164; unorganized terri
tories. $1,000. 1t is not surprising that
Canada, with her many resources and
her healthful climate and varied OPP
portunities for industrial >wealth-seek-
ers, should grow all the time, says the
Mexican Herald. A sturdy race which
increases by the excess Of births over
deaths is continually being reinforced
by immigration, and that of the best
kind. The consuming power of the
population OF Canada is very large,
and accounts for the heavy importa-
tons of foreign goods and the excel
lent support given to home industries.
Argentina, with about a million less
population than Canada, is rapidly in
creasing in wealth. 1t is interesting
TO see that the influx OF immigrants
into this country from Spain con-
tinues, Just as it does in the case of
Cuba and Argentina. The ancient
Iberian motherland still breeds a
sturdy race which send its sons to
former colonies.

VARIETY IN VANITY BOXES
Some in ParasoI Handles, Others in
the Heads of Hat Pins, and
All Are Pretty.

Ingenuity lavishes itself upon the
vanity box which woman has come to
regard a necessity. Every season
sees it in new and more cleverly de-
vised forms.
The newest development are the
parasol top and the hatpin vanity
box. At the top of the metal handle
of the parasol a circular lid opens
and discloses powder puff and box,
and a mirror set into the cover.
The immense hatpins in vogue sug-
gested the possibility of accommo-
dating powder box and mirror. Many
of the big ball heads or the highly
arched disk heads carry these little
toilet necessaries.
Locket powder boxes come in all
sizes from little ones an inch and a
half long to those measuring three
inches. They are worn like an ordi-
nary Iocket on chain about the neck,
or bangle from bracelets or from this

It used to be king Cotton" Then
corn came into active rivalry for SUI
premacy. And now it looks as though
rubber might be the great staple of
commerce. There has been an enor-
nous increase in the production of
rubber and in importations into the
United States. This is due to the rap
idly augmenting demand, with rubber
as an essential for automobile, bicycle
and carriage tires and for other pur-
poses. Word comes from Sumatra,
which has been the source Of supply
for tobacco OF a certain grade, that
the planters are giving up the weed"

rubber farms. 1t is not believed,
however, that tobacco growing in Con-

can states will be supplanted by rub

The Rose Mun.

The well-dressed women of Paris
and Vienna have come to the conclu-
sion that it is no longer necessary to
wear gloves in the summer months.
They have discovered that gloves,
whether kid, silk, suede, twill or
Danish leather are not only uncomfort-
able in the hot season, but are preju-
dicial to health. So in June, July, Au-
gust and September the hands must
be left quite gloveless, not even mitts
being fashionable.
The no gloves idea has been vel
coined by votaries of tennis, golf, Gro
ouet and rowing. To cover the hands
while at these sports has been a great
mistake, they argue.
While gloves are discarded 1t is not
intended that the hands of the woman
in a ballroom or a theater shall be
exposed. They are to be placed IL 8

one, too, by the way-ripening for the
reapers' work. The evenness of the
crop, covering field after field, attract

the well-rounded sides of the cattle

Vegetables cooked in a steamer are

Round ErilI al Neck.

The fat, round plated frin has
usurped the place of the round. fat
lace collar 1t is not becoming. as q
rule, but that makes no difference to
the votaries of fashion. This frill is
made of very sheer material laid In
fat plants which spring out about an
inch from the edge. This edge is
nearly always finished with lace.
The collar is intended to be worn
with a slightly low neck or white
blouse in the same way that the
Peter Pan and Dutch collars have
been applied
The small frill goes straight around
the neckband and fastens with large
cabochon, from which hang uneven
tabs of black velvet or satin ribbon
Few girls can wear this even round
line at the neck: for the human face
requires a dip at the front of the
neck no matter how it is obtained.
Therefore If girl wants to be fash
ionable and wear one of these frilled
collars and look well in 1t she should
dip it down to show her neck
