Rutland Dec: l9.--Patrick Nooraa,
who left this city Thursday afternoon
with John Burns, of Chelsea, Mass, the
man found frozen to death in Mendon
Friday, says that soon after they passed
the Geno place Burns said that he could
not 60 any farther and turned back to
find shelter, the cold wind and flying
snow, making the weather almost I'M
beaTable II is supposed that he was
overcome while Flooding along through
the snow. NGoaan arrived at the Yer
mont Marble company Pieo camp about
s o'clock with his feet and nose frozen.
He reached Woodstock Thursday and
was lodged in jail on request Of Statc ;
Attorney b. J.. Stafford of this city but
was released Saturday after being thor
oughly questioned, the authorities being
convinced that there was no cause to
hold him.
States Attorney Stafford and Deputy
Sheriff Pascal Ricci drove late Fri lay
10 the spot where Burns body was
found They discovered that he had
stepped from the road into deep snow
and was probably too benumbed by the
cold to rise The impression in the
snow showed that his body was in
half reclingiug position when found.
The chief of police at Chelsea has
been notified of Burns death SO that
il there are any relatives of the man

LIBERALS READY
TO SHEAR LORDS
Unionists, for Kings Sake, May Accept
the Veto Bill--coalition Mar
gin. 122,


London, Dec. l9.-With the exception
Of few personal changes the new house
Of commons vii be the same as the old.
The old predominant parties, the liberals
and unionists, will have four and one
less, respectively, than they did in the
late parliament,
The standing of the parties last night
gave the liberals 1868 laborites 40, ma
tionalists " and independent national
lists 10, making a total Of 1893 for the
government coalition, against 27l for the
unionist opposition, margin Of 100.
With the elections over, there is no
longer talk of Parnellite home rule. The
liberal policy is now confined to self
government for Ireland, subject to the
control Of the imperial parliament.
On the other side, the responsible un-
ionist organs admit that the govern
ment has received mandate for par
Lament bin which would abolish the
veto power OF the house Of lords.
The general opinion is that the un-
ionist leaders in the end will accept the
bill sooner than drag the king into the
party arena, as then the government
would be compelled to ask the king for
guarantees in the nature of the appoint
ment of 500 peers TO outyote the I'M
ionists in the upper house.

Homemade Opera Bag.

Why not give the girl friend a home
made opera bag for Christmas? She IS
sure to be delighted-it can be used for
small bits of handwork also-and you
will enjoy the making. The opera bag
can be made with or without the oval
stiff bottom. The first is more difficult
to construct and cannot be so well adapt
ed to fancy work purposes.
Among the newest bags are those cut
rather small, pointed at the bottom, with
the top above the cord finished in seal
lops. The two sides are cut alike ana
the seams sewed on inside or, if finished
on outside, is covered with narrow gal
loon.
Sometimes the tops are cut in points
like the bottom. Another shape is Oh
the order of the old.fashioned reticule,
like very much bulged pear, The top
is finished to draw into casing
The worker in fooled leather can make
a stylish and seryiceable bag by cutting
an oval bottom seven inches long and
three and a half wide. To this is sewed
two straight pieces nine and half inches
long and seven inches high. The ends Of
the pieces are sewed in seam and the
bag lined with a plain color silk velvet
to match one of the tones in the leather
decoration. The bag is sewed in the
bottom without fullness.
The top is drawn into a wide box plait
on each side by means of four eyelets
an inch apart and half-inch below the
top. A narrow stripe of wood two
inches and quarter long with holes to
correspond to the two central eyelets.
is placed on each half of the bag This
is held to the leather by the cord run
through two Sits in the leather between
the central eyelets, and corresponding
holes in the wood The LAYERS are then
run in opposite directions and draw up
firmly and easily.
The handworl bags are made up in
white OF delicate toned satins or moires
"a bit of brocade left from some of the
new bridal froeks is just the thing. The
lining may be of contrasting color or
in gold or silver tissue
