In regard to his trip Mr. Lowdon said: "I have been traveling about for five weeks, and in that time I have visited the majority of counties. A great many committees seem in the dark as to what to do; how aver, ladies now seem to be taking up the idea with great enthusiasm. "I must congratulate Allegheny county en the efficient work their committee bos done. If they get" everything in they will have a very remarkable showing. Their crystal temple, together with the represen tation of the handiwork of Allegheny county's working women, some of which is extremely unique, will attract great atten tion in the Women's building. I am here to assist the ladies in any capacity I may be needed. The work has been to well ar ranged, however, tbat there does not seem to be a great deal that I can do. I am go ing with some of the members to interview manufacturers in order to determine what the business men will do in regard to Allegheny county's crystal room. We expect to be able to report our success at to morrow's meeting of the committee. What are the women doing in other counties? So much tbat It would be hard to enumerate everything.

W. Henderson, Principal of the School of Design. Biographies of Famous Women. "The counties have each been asked to furnish for the women's building a picture aud brief biography ot their most distin guished woman. Can-eron county has an nounced Victoria C Woodhull as its candi date for that honor; Nellie Bly (Miss Eliza Cochrane), from Armstrong county; Re becca Hatding Davis, from Washington county and Grace Greenwood (Mrs. Lippen cott,) from Beaver county.

It is "now known that Mrs. Huntrerford is Irish, with more than an ordinary proportion of wit and imagination. Her "Wild Irish Girls," it has been remarked, are capital company. The books by Mrs. Hungerford owe their popularity to their freshness, brightness, lightness and other pleasureable characteristics, all of which are combined in the highest degree in LADY VERNER'S PLIGHT. The new story is a light, airy romance; the style is sprightly, unaffected and energetic; the plot contains just that amount of complexity to make its gradual development delightful; and the characters particularly the women are drawn with that mixture ol realism and idealism which the great majority of readers prefer to the cold, hard matter-of-fact methods adopted by some writers of eminence.
