Gowns and the Courts.
C-hattanooga Times.

chattanooga 11m6S.
Quarrels between d~ressmakers and
patrons concerning the fit of a gown
are frequent, we suppose but it is
only in New York that the custom Of
having the dress tried On in court for
decision by a judge, who in this res
pect usually is no judge, prevails,
Every few months we read of such
a~djudications in the great city, and
there is a justifiable suspicion that
the New York judges welcome this
sartorial break into their routine. OF
course, they would not say in such
cases or require the interesting DEM
o%nstratin if it were of a character
that no sedate, learned and married
jurist should look upon, and we have
not yet noted a "clear-the-court" or
der, but a case is secluded which to
our provincial mind presents many
dangers to proper judicial procedure
and theatens a peril to the judiciary
which is far worse than the recall.
Mrs. Leslie Carter the actress, has
been sued for payment for $4,000
worth of artistic draperies, including
a $500 f1esh-pink "nightie," and the
astonishing statement is made in a
metropolitan paper that she has been
ordered to try on the garments in
court. Can it be possible that the
tribunal c9 justice is to be desecrat-
ed by such an exhibition?
What of the judge who is to sit in
Judgement upon a fiesh-pink nigh
tie 2" Truly, he will have a parlous
hour when he goes home that evening
ing. Indeed, this job that he is go
ing to undertake is no mans work.
Such cases should &c before a fem
mime judge, or the defendant should
be compelled to accept the verdict of
a jury made up of peeresses. Justice
is blind, but a judge can see. and il
the judge be a mere man. he should
be saved from the spectacle of the
fery-headed actress clad in the af-
fair mentioned. A costume court.
even a woman judge and feminine
officers, is one of the needs of the day
in New York.

Women, Women, Women!

New York Sun.
Miss Edith Campbelle, a candidate
for the board of education in Cincin-
natl, is circulating a card on which
is printed:
"Nine-tenths of cur teachers are wo-
men.
"one-half of our parents are wo-
men.
"one-half of cur children will be
women"
Miss Campbelle is too cautious in
her third statement. In some COM
munfties the female children outnum-
Der. the males, and the tendency is
that way in the most populous and
civilized States. AS to one-half Of
cur parents being women, ought not
the "better half" to be considered
in any calculation? If so Miss Cam
pbelle's claims to election would be
still further embraced.

CHINA Plant for CharIotte.

In the presence of a number of dis
tinguished citizens and prominent bus
mess men of the city. Mr.. Arthur S.
Watts of the bureau of mines of the
United States government. spoke in
formally in the business Office of the
Greater Charlotte Club last night. For
some time there has been discussion
among business men of the Queen City,
relative to the establishment of a
manufacturing plant in Charlotte for
the turning out of a high grade of
chinaware, and the. visit of Mr.. Watts
was aprospos OF this question. The
securing of the services of Mr.. Watts
is directly attributable to the efforts of
Mr.. Oscar Thies, who mel the govern
ment expert in the western part of the
State during the present summer,
while he vas examining the kaolin de-
posits of North Carolina. Last nights
meeting was without form. Mr.. Watts
giving the assembled members the
benefit of his extensive knowledge of
the china manufacturing business, and
answering such questions as were
asked him.

Watts, that no where in the United

quality of kaolin as may be secured
in the western section of North Caro-
lima. Texas ranks next in it's super
fine production of this product min
eral, but 1 feel safe in saying that the
North Carolina kaolin is unsurpassed.
In Dresden Germany, and Copen-
hagen, Denmark. the kaolin used in
the finest production of the finest
quality of china is not of better quail
ity than may be found in this State.
81 should advise that if a manu-
featuring plant be established in Char
lotte. it should confne it's products
entirely to the highest and more ex-
pensive grades of chinaware. There
is not a manufacturer of high-priced
china in the United States today, who
is not making money from his plant,
| Another reason that this plan should
be pursued is that there are extreme
ly few manufacturers of the strictly
high-grade articles of chinaware in
this country. The price of a piece
of china is largely determined by it's
name.-Charlotte Observer.

Dr.. Wiley cOmmends Cotton Oil

For over quarter of a century Dr..
Wiley, the famous government expert
has conducted an active campaign for
pure food in the interest of public health.
His advocacy in a recent speech of the
use of Cotton Oil as a food is, there
fore, especially significant; it simply m
phasizes the wholesomeness of Cotto-
lene-t6e vegetable oil shortening
which is composed so essentially of Cot--
ton Oil, the use of which he SO strongly
recommends. Cottolene is endorsed
by physicians generally, because of its
purity and wholesomeness. 1t has been
the leader in Cotton Oil products tor
over twenty-five years.

Chased by a Waterspout.

An American steamer had the rare
experience, while off the coast of
Guatemala. of being pursued by a
waterspout, which suddenly appeared
near the ship. In the midst of the
CONSERVATION the captain ordered his
course reversed and soon the steam
er was driving along. with the water
spout in pursuit.
It's crest was hidden in a dark mass
of cloud, its base seeming to operate
like an immense revolving colander,
while the entire external periphery
formed a cushion of foam, over
which sea-birdes screamed, occasion

come within reach.
The spout formed a sort of spiral
cylinder, streaked with Opaque paral-
lei lines throught its whole length.
These lines were evidently ascend
ing columns of water, for afterward
when the upper and lower sections
became detached the accumulated
volume of water overhead Immediate
~ began its descent within the body
of the spout, as though it had been
the valve of a immense syringe.
The water thus released must have
been equal to several tons, as it was
solid and almost black, and returned
to the sea with a lead road, all the
other parts of the aerial structure
gradually disappearing.
Perhaps the most singular feature
of all was the ~serpentine form U.s.

 The city authorities are preparing to restore the ancient game of mine pins'' on the green lawn opposite the Stand ard Oil and Custom House buildings. In the days of Peter Stuyvesant, when New York was officially New Amster- settlers as a bowling ground. It was just outside the ancient fort built by the followers of Peter Minuit, the first Dutch governor and when the English raised their flag over the city, they named the green Bowling Green," by which it has since been known. For a time some of the early aristocrats of the city obtained lease from the mu- nicipality for the use of the sward for nominal sum per year.
 The first piece of land sold in the city, of which there is any record, is directly opposite, as is also the site of the house occupied by Benedict Ar mold, the traitor, after his escape into the British lines following the arrest of Major Andre and the discovery of the American Generals plot to surrender his forces to the troops of George III at West Point.

made public Tuesday. 1t does not con.

The plan was submitted to the ma

meeting called Tor the purpose.
Far from recommending the institu-

expressly disclaims belief in it as
calculated to meet the needs of the

What Mr.. Aldrich does propose is
the establishment of the reserve asso-

1T is proposed to charter the Re-

will be the principal fiscal agent of
