In the life of the Rt.-Rev. Mandell
Crelgbton, bishop of London, Is a story
of a- frolic at Oxford on Guy Fawkes
day, 1865. A bonfire was kindled
which endangered some of the oldest
buildings. The old warden, Dr. Mar
ham, was asked by the tutors to
speak seriously to the men about their
unrujy conduct. Thus urged, he ad
dressed the assembled college and
rebuked them for behaving In such an
ungentlemanly manner, concluding
with these words: "And all I can say,
gentlemen, Is that if you want to be
have like barbarian savages, why
ahem abem you should come and
ask leave first"

A Salt For the Links.
A brown and white check In a loosely
woven tweed has been successfully
converted Into a stunning Rolling cos-
tume by a famous tailor. The skirt is
plain and graceful In Its ankle length
lines, nnd a russet brown cloth makes
the chic banded coat, which Is dellc
lously negligee, blouslng just a trifle
all round over a brown leather belt,
The fronts are turned back and faced
with the plaid, which material also
fashions the smart little walslcout that
buttons over a shirt of white linen.
The neck Is arranged with the now de

Strings For Bonnets anil Hutu.
Strings of thin satin are by no means
exceptional, and make an effective
finish to picture hats. Black liberty
strings are attached under the brim of
a black velvet bat, and knotted togctb
cr once, so that the knot rests on the
wearer's right shoulder. This bat has
the brim somewhat raised on the right
side, while curving down in the brim.
The trimming consists of loops of the
ribbon, each pleated Into the shape of a
dahlia petal, arranged in two halves,
embracing two-thirds of the crown,
joined by a handsome cut steel buckle
of shield shape, and a plume of ostrich
tips placed rather far back. .Millinery

Not For the Dampy Woi
The trimming of tbe new skirt covers
the entire area of tbe skirt, reserving a
slight bit of unclaimed surface at tho
top. When the material Is adaptable a
pretty conceit Is represented by a Bkirt
trimmed with three frills to wit, a
broad one at the bottom, a narrower
one half way up, and tbe third and last
hardly a quarter of a yard from the
waist line. Lots of sartorial solecisms
will be spared us If the fat, dumpy
woman will relinquish all claims to this
particular effect, leaving these frills to
her tall, slight sister, and adopt the
equally smart directoire skirt, which,
With its clinging, long Hues, will acceu

Willi Ming Sleeves.
A striking feature of a white cloth
evening pelisse Is the sling sleeve. This
peculiar sleeve is very full und shirrtd
up onto a shallow yoke. It is edged
along the open part (the sling) with
sable. From the front this opening is
quite like some very old-fashioned gur-
meits. From the back the sleeves loolt
like huge sagging puffs. In addition
to being edged around the neck and
down the fronts with the fur it is
adorned with two puffs of the cloth
The lowest one Is four Inches above
the edge. One goes around in a line
with the bust. The sleeve, to return to
the very novel feature, does not fall
far below the elbow, which gives op
portunlty to show the dress sleeve.

Dav of Hast,

she Is glad when Monday comes and

' rialil Sblrt Waist Dresses.
The smartest shirt waist dresses fot
this season nre plaid, the real Scotch
designs, or color schemes In the browur
and greens, or dull two-tone plaids.
In the most expensive goods it is not
at all difficult to find the actual tartan
deslgn.the Stewart, the MacDonald,th
Bruce, the Wallace and so on through
all the best known clans. And if you
are Scotch-descent It Is the very swag
ger thing to have a shirt waist suit in
the plaid of your own clan.
The materials nre a heavy Scotch
wool mixture, silk mol-air, wash flan
nel, light Scotch flannel, taffeta, silk
and wool voile and straight cotton
stuffs. If you want to be most fash
ionable you will have a wash flannel
suit In some tartan color, n design that j
has been fought under, sung to. and I
that has been an Inspiration to the
uagpipes on ninny a uumencio. -The
wool or silk shirt waist sntU al.'
have a pleated skirt, wide box pleats ot
narrow knife pleats, or cut circular ot
accordion pleated. And the hjouses arc
pleated to match, full over the chesf
for perfect comfort, loose in the arm
hole, moderately full sleeves, with the
comfortable elbow spring. They are
very tailor made, all tbe pleats stitched
and double stitched and flatly pressed,
and the silk suits sometimes trimmed
with bands, collar and cuffs of suede
leather.
An excellent plan for washing thesf
linings to prevent fading or the hag
gard look of well rubbed fabric is to
wash in bot suds of castile soap and
borax powder. It saves boiling, the
use of a board, and miy possibility ot
shrinking. Have a tub half full of
water that has boiled, add four table
spoonfuls of borax and half a cake of
shaved soap. When this la prepared it
is a good plan before putting In your
linings to first rinse out any laces or
ribbons or veils that you want to clean
quickly without injury.
Your linings will come clean in a
few minutes light hand rubbing, and
should be rinsed In clear warm and
then in clear cold water. ,
This is also a good method for doing
up the plaid suits of wash flannel,
which should never have permanent
linings If there is any intention of sub
mitting them to laundry worries. You
simply can't wash two different sorts
of materials out In different ways so
that they will agree afterwards, and It
Is simpler to plan them separate from
the start. It also makes Ironing easier.
Tbe effort to Iron a loose blouse with a
fitted lining on the wrong side might
easily, if women were not so patient,
imireril household peace for a week.

Assemblyman T. L. Kennedy an
nounces that he will bring a bill before
the next Legislature (or the condemna
tion and purchase of all toll bridges in
Pennsylvania by the Stale and the coun
ty in which they are located, the Slate
and cOunly to divide the expense. Some
counties have already done away with
toll bridges, and so has I'ittsburg with
in its corporate limits, but toll bridges
slill exist between Pimburg and Alle
gheny. The proposed law. it is be
lieved, would help the Greater Pitts
' burg project. Bridge companies pay a
State lax, but no county tax, and for
this reason t lie State co.ikl afford to
pay its share out of llic faxes it has re
ceived for many years, says Mr. Ken
nedy. The greater number of toll
bridges in the Slate are in Western
Pennsylvania, this being due 10 the fact
that when lliey were built the counties
were poor and preferred to give rights
to private capital. Many Assemblymen
have pledged themselves to support the
lull.
T. D. Xirholls, secretary of the Board
if Conciliation, received Carroll D.
Wright's decision in the matter of the
grievance of the employees of the Kxe
tcr Colliery, of the Lehigh Valley Coal
Company. The men complained that
the company, since April I, irjoj, has
paid the sliding scale increase provided
for by the Anthracite Strike Commis
sion on the net earnings, instead of the
tjross earnings. Mr. Wright decides
that the increase must be paid on the
gross earnings, but says the men are
entitled to back pay only since the time
'lie appeal was filed, August 17 last.
This matter of paying on the gross or
net earnings was one of the questions
hat almost brought on another strike
tarly last summer. The Lehigh Valley
itid the Temple Iron Companies are .the
nnly ones hereabouts who pay on the
net earnings. AI! the rest pay on the
gross earnings. Mr. Wright made a
similar decision sonic time ago in the
:ase of the Reading Coal & Iron Com
pany. In compliance with a request, County
Commissioner M. L. (ireidcr, of Mt.

Samuel Simmons, a demonstrator in
h Philadelphia department store, was
taken from the late Philadelphia ex
press on the Reading Railway nearly
dead from exposure to a temperature of
" degrees above zero while riding to
Pottstown from Reading on the plat
form of the baggage car. Simmons had
been visiting his father in Lebanon, and
by tbe time be reached Reading on his
way to Philadelphia he had no' mor
money. He tried to get a free ride on
Ihe platform of the baggage car, but
the result was nearly fatal to him. Out

was taken to the Potlsvillc Hospital.
A reception was held in the ball of
the Bayard Taylor Memorial Library,
Kcnnett Square, to celebrate the free
ing of tbe library from debt. William
W. Polk, of Phocnixville, who wa
president of the association until hi;
removal from town two years ago, made
an address. Prof. William Wickcrshani
master of Westtown Friends' School
and one of the trustees, also spoke. Prof
Walter E. Denglcr, principal of the pub
lic school, spoke on the help the li
brary had been to the pupils of the
school. D. Ducr Phillips, treasure!
since the organization of (lie library,
read his report, showing that the prop
erty is now free from debt. The build
ing, which was erected in honor ol
Bayard Taylor, the poet, who lived in
Kennett Square, was dedicated on Sep-
. tcmb"r 12, l8A The cost was near
ly $38oo, and at the time of the dedica
tion there was a debt of $5600. Tbe
library contains about 4000 volumes.
Besides the main library rooms there
is a hall on the second floor for enter
tainments. Dr. Joseph Kalhfits, secretary of the
State Board of Game Commissioners,
has' prepared his annual report, which
will be acted upon at the meeting of the
board in Ilarrisburg this week. The
report recommends that a law be passed
placing a tax of $t on every burner iu
the State for the purpose of purchasing
quail for propagating purposes. Dr.
Kalbfus would like to set apart certain
territory of the Slate forestry reserva
tion where protection can be given
to birds and animals and where nobody
would be permitted to hunt, lie finds
that the law prohibiting the sale of
game killed in this State is evaded by
men who formerly hunted for the mar
ket and who now hire their services as
hunters at a stated salary, their em
ployer receiving all of the game that it
slaughtered.
