Hats from Paris

Hats just out of their Paris WrappiDgs
are among the most charmingly refined
yet smart beadwear that is shown here.

brown tulle over yellow in a high up
standing putting, is bordered BY a wide
band of shaded velvet paneies, in soft red
and brown tones, and, little at the left
of the centre back. has a bow Of the
shaded velvet ribbon which is one of the
novelties of this season.
Another similar shape with crown Of
yellow satin straw, is banded with shaded
blue Marguerites, and has bow of tulle
at the back. A draped high toque with
the crown of black Milan straw, has a
lattice. OF medium blue straw, over the
black forming the band. A single full
plume of black ostrich is the sole trim
ming. A wide brimmed leghorn is dyed
gold color, and trimmed with lilacs in
shades that Nature never attempts; tans,
browns, old reds, and deepest royal
purple, arranged across the hat, and
caught with bow Of shaded velvet at the
upturned side.

The honey-comb mesh veil still con-

becoming to be lightly abandoned, but
one sees either no veil at all or what, for
want of better name, are termed Spider
wells. from the intricacy of their meshes
and the fact that the figures are placed at
the centres of closest weaving, as spider
stays more often as the centre of his web.
These are no doubt smart but very mask
like, too much so for pretty young face,
though the girls are affecting them.

A STRICKEN FAMILY
Is That Of John j. Sweeney Of the
City of St. Paul,

Is That Of John j. Sweeney of the
City Of st. Paul.
At st. Paul, Mimi, on April goth, at
5 p. M, died Mrs. Elizabeth Moran
Sweeney, the beloved wife of John J.
Sweeney. Elizabeth Moran was born
in Rosemount As years ago, and at "a
years of age married John j. Swee-
ney of Holy Cross, Iowa. During her
married life she had lived in West
Superior Mimi, and in Holy Cross
and Dyersvlle, Iowa, removing two
peculiarly sad one and was heavy
blow to her devoted husband and little
children, and her beloved brothers and
sisters.
On Sunday, April is, she was struck
with scarlet fever, contracted while
ministering to her family of little ones,
six of whom We're victims of the dread
disease. No fears were felt by the
family for her ultimate recovery and
at her door, the call was sudden and
none could realize that She was gone
Her grief stricken husband is left with
his helpless family of seven-the babe
of less than two years-to face the
troubles of life and overcome it's many
discouragements without the assist
ance Of its helpmate of years.
May God assist him on his weary
road, and may the Merciful Father
who orders all things right have mercy
on her helpless family and be a COM
fort to them.
At the time of Mrs. Sweeney's death
six of the children were confined in
the hospital and did not know of the
loss that was theirs. Besides the hus-
band and children, Mrs. Sweeney is
survived by four brothers and six sis
ters, viz: NJ. j. Moran and Henry P.
Moran, st. Paul; Thos. P. Moran,
Hastings; John Moran, Lakevillc; Mrs.
p. Mccarthy, Morris; Mrs. Catherine
Gibbons, Farmington; Mrs. Charles
Burns, Mendoza and Mrs William
Kelly, Mrs. NJ. j. Corcoran and Mrs.
John Farrell, Rosemount. The fune-
raj was held privately on Friday
morning, April %. and the interment
| was at Rosemount, MINI. Services at
the grave were conducted by Rev. Ter

PIutarch and the Comet.

If old Plutarch writes accurately,
there is reason for believing that the
earth once before suffered the expert
ence due this sprnS-that of passing
through the tail OF Haley's comet.
The results then were attributed to
the wrath of the gods because of the
assassination of Julius Caesar. If sim
liar phenomena are now recorded, a
bad crop year may be expected, also
much la grippe and pneumonia. 1t
will be chilly and damp and dark.
followed the appearance of a brilliant
comet Immediately after the assassina-
ton of Julius Caesar In that famous
volume "Plutarchs Lives the histo-
rian, concluding the life of Caesar,
says:
THE most singular preternatural
appearances were the great comet,
which shone, very. bright for seven
nights after Caesars death and then
sun. whose orb continued pale and dull
for the whole of that year, never show
ing its ordinary radiance at it's rising,
and giving but a weak and feeble heat.
The air consequently was damp and
gross for want of stronger rays to
open and rarity it. The fruit for that
reason never properly ripened and be-
gan to wther and fall off for want Of
heat before they We're fully formed"
Caesar died in March of A B. c., or
approximately 1854 years ago. The
comet makes it's round in seventy five
years and the division comes in 2oO5.
There is no other comet reported by
the astronomers which would cause
such an illumination and which would
be due at the time named.
The Romans We're moved strongly by
superstitions and Plutarch shows him
self the victim of many of them. Yet,
Plutarch wrote only $50 years after
the death of Caesar. 1t seems that the
| fact of the comets appearance and the
! extraordinary crop conditions of the
year would hardly have been manu-
| featured in that interval. Possibly
there was no connection between the
effect on fruit and the appearance of
| the comet, yet the coincidence is in
! teresting.

THE DEAD SEA.
Leaving the Jordan. we make our
way down the valley to the Dead sea.
The road goes through the thorn
bushes and winds about through dry.
thirsty hills. The land is salty and
alkaline and all nature is dead. How
hot the sun is, and how garing! Our
eyes smart, and horrid flies crawl with
legs of glue over our faces. We try
to brush them off. but they alight
again and bite as they crawl.
Now we are on the shore of the sea.
1t is covered with pebbles and drift
wood 1t looks more like lake than
a sea, and it Is just about the size Of
Lake Geneva. in Switzerland 1t is
only so miles long and 10 miles in
width, and we can see from one end
of It to the other.
The sea is bounded by stony noun
tnins. on the east are the desert hills
of Moab, where Ruth was born and
Moses Is buried, aisl on the west lies
those of Judea. where the children Of
Israel came after Moses had pointed
out the Promised Land to them There
are openings at the north and south,
and away at the southwest are works
where the Turkish government Is
evaporating the water to make salt for
sale.
The Dead sea has no outlet. A mist
