THE FASHIONS.
Covert coatings are much used for
small coats and jackets.
Changeable and Iridescent effects in
ailka, satins, wools and velvets appear
hi new and stylish combinations.
Pretty skirts of pompadour silk are
made for evening wear with white
peuu de cygue or white glace silk
blouse waists made of tucked India
mull.
The duchess closing Is the charac
teristic feature of a stylish new shirt
waist that may be made either with or
without its additional straps and belt
and short postilion tabs.
The plainer wool goods will be used
extensively for costumes for general
wear. Skirts and coats made of these
cloths are as a rule made with fagot
ed slot scams and finished with hand
some buttons.
Small pale pink rose clusters are
worn as u coiffure decoration In the
evening, arranged in a trailing wreath
around the full coil of hair, which is
dressed high on the head and fastened
with a black velvet bow.—New York
I'ost.
ORCHARD AND GARDEN.
Dwarf pear trees are valuable be
cause they hear early.
Potting of hyacinths and tulips for
winter blooming may be done at any
time now.
Good, straight stems arc desirable In
tlio young apple, pear or other trees,
but plenty of clean, bright roots is of
greater Importance.
Select stocky trees with rather low
heads. If they have plenty of side
shoots, all the better, as these indlcato
plenty of good roots.
The family orchard, unlike the com
mercial orchard, requires a good many
varieties in order to furnish a good sup
ply all through the season.
Mosses and lichens adhering to the
bark of trees are parasitic. They take
nourishment from the trees, and work
an injury by affording a hiding place
for vermin and by shutting out the
light.
CYNICISMS.
A girl learns sooner than a boy that
1t is necessary to conceal many things
from company.
Ever think how many times a man
escapes punishment and how few
times he is grateful for it?
We have always wondered that no
physician has ever attempted to cure
rheumatism by cutting out tbe bones.
A real smooth person is one who
doesn't know any difference in his
treatment of those he hates and those
he likes.
In the servant girl problem some
women seem to have tried every means
of getting Slong except that of teach
Ing their daughters to do housework.—

MRS. MARY LEE STARK.
Pre*ldnt of the Mont Novel Women's
The Sixty club of Laramie, Wyo., is
the most curious social organization In
existence.
It Is a woman's club, and to be eligi
ble for membership in this queer asso
ciation the woman seeking admission
must bear the distinction of huving
seen threescore birthdays.
No woman under sixty will be con
sidered, no matter by whom her name
may he presented.
In this day of woman's clubs the Six
ty club, which Is the newest In pur
pose, Is deserving of marked attention.
The club consists of twelve women,
all of whom are over sixty years of
age. They have been learning that
years count for nothing In this the wo
man's century.
One fact about this newest body of
clubwomen is that their circle has nev
er been broken Into. Withdrawal and
decease do not deface their records.
Two years ago Mrs. Catharine Ilorlne
Godat, who has the distinction of be
ing the oldest member of the club, nnd
Ml<B. MART LEE HTAIiK.
Mrs. Mary Lee Stark, the president,
invited ten women to spend the after
noon with them.
Mrs. Godut and Mrs. Stark were each
celebrating their respective birthdays.
The occasion proved exceedingly en
joyable.
No one there was under sixty years
of age. Mrs. Godat is eighty years old,
while Mrs. Stark is In her sixty-ninth
year.
The occasion suggested club life as
it was everywhere being talked about
by women, und then and there these
twelve women constituted themselves
members of one body, to he hereafter
known as the Sixty club.
It has ever since been tbe custom of
the members to come together at reg
ular Intervals in one anotber's house
and devote the time to intercourse of a
purely social nature.
The do.ven of the club, Mrs. Cath
arine Uorlne Godat, was born at Rich
wood. Washington county, Mo., July
20, 1822, and she left St. Louis for
Laramie on the day of the Chicago
fire.
The baby of the flock Is Mrs. Kate
Parsons Foote, who was born In St.
Louis in 1840. Mrs. Foote moved to
Laramie In 1801. She Is said to pos
sess the energetic temperament which
is characteristic of every member of
the Boecber family, to which she Is
closely related.
The president of the club. Mary Lee
Stark, was born at Guilford, Conn.
Mrs. Stark moved to Cheyenne, Wyo.,
In 1800. Her brother, General E. N.
Lee, was at that time the first secre
tary of the territory uiul acting gov
ernor during the illness of the chief
executive. Mrs. Stark has been n resi
dent of Laramie since 1800 und is
prominent in missionary and church
work. She is likewise the author of
several books, and Is a newspaper wo
man as well. She was the first woman
voter of the state of Wyoming, which
some years ago gave the right of fran
chise to women.
The Afternoon Ten Tnble.
Do not make the mistake of having
tliis little bit of Hospitality too elab
orate. Tlie essentials are tbe teakettle
and teapot, small bowl of block sugar
and a few tliin lialf slices of lemon,
two or three small cups, snueers and
spoons. Keep some extra fine ten In a
pretty ten caddy on tbe lower shelf of
tho table.
The little brass or nickel copper tea
kettle with alcohol lamp should always
bo placed on a small tray to avoid ac
cident to the polished tnble or its cover.
It is doubtful if there be any economy
In using the cheap wood alcohol In the
lamp, as it burns faster than the higher
grade spirit Cream is never used
with tbe afternoon cup of ten. For
something solid with the ten there is
nothing better than bread nnd batter
folds, but this necessitates some prep
aration. nnd the tnble under considera
tion is for the benefit of tbe casual vis
itor. A cracker Jar containing crisp
little wafers of one or two kinds is
convenient.
If something special is prepared oc
casionally, a dainty much liked with
the thin wafers or bread and butter is
a plate of dates stuffed with Neufcha
tel cheese. Remove the stones aud fill
the vacancy with the cheese. v
But remember always to avoid tbe
appearance of making a grnit effort
to furnish the freshly brewed cup of
tea to a caller.—Philadelphia Times.
of Aclremtra.
No class of womeu preserve their
youthful appearance as well us ac
!resses. Why? Because youth and
good looks are part of their stock in
trade and a knowledge of their meth
ods of preservation is absolutely neces
sary. Then they are wise enough to
use that knowledge to its fullest capac
ity, because their success depends upon
it. In preparing for every performance
the skin of face, neck and arms is
treated to the best of toilet cream,
which Is rubbed In until the pores are
protected from the substances which
come after it—powder and rouge and
colored cosmetic pencils.
That lasts to the close of the show,
when the skin is thoroughly cleaned
with toilet creams. Water would have
no good effect upon It. Dirt cannot
touch a skin cared for in that fashion,
and in addition to cleanliness there are
the feeding of the tissues by the cream
and the stimulation from rubbing. Va
cation time finds these habits so well
fixed that they are not dropped, and
then the world of careless women won
ders why the women who work hard
and keep late and irregular hours keep
their freshness.—Boston Traveler.
FOURTEEN KILLED.
Bomb* nnil Rocket* nt Election Flre
worka Display Explode.
New York, Nov. s.—Fourteen persons
were killed and more than fifty injured
on the night of election day when
many hundred pounds of high explo
sives composing the magazine of fire
works for the pyrotechnic display in
Madison square went off with a terrific
crash.
Thousands of people were mossed
about the spot on Madison avenue, be
tween Twenty-fourth and Twenty
fifth streets, where the explosion took
place.
The list of dead and injured, so far
as reported, is as follows: Matthew
Conley, twelve years old, 29 East
Twenty-fourth street; Joseph Arbor,
twenty-one years old, 541 Fifth street;
William G. Feeney, fourteen years
old, 330 Fourth avenue; Jumes Fen
ner, OS Clinton street; Fruuk Merrill,
fourteen years old, address unknown;
George Ritz. 443 Second avenue; Den
nis Shea, policeman. Fourth precinct,
head blown off, und seven unidentified
bodies, including three boys, one col
ored.
The explosion was heard a mile
away. Windows were shattered hi the
Fifth Avenue hotel, Hoffman House
and in the Bartholdi hotel as well as in
residences on Mudison avenue facing
the park and stores in Broudway and
Twenty-third street.
The fireworks which exploded were
of the most dangerous sorts, consisting
of high power bombs, rockets and
"flower pqts." There, were several tons
of these, which had been placed In the
middle of the street directly In front
of the four story brown stone house of
David Bishop at 11 Madison avenue.
The premature explosion of one of
the bombs caused the disaster. The
bomb dropped among the store of fire
works, and the explosion took place
before any attempt could be made to
avert it.
Inspector Brooks, who was placed in
charge of the police immediately after
news of the explosion was sent to po
lice headquarters, arrested the employ
ees of the Pain Fireworks company in
eharge of the pyrotechnics.
FORCING A FASHION.
now Ilatn Were Introduced to tlic
South Afrlcuu Savae*.
Andries De Villlors, a Boer, was the
person who first introduced hats among
the South African natives, says the
Hatters' Gazette, and profit, not phi
lanthropy, was his motive. One morn
ing muily years ago he chanced iu Port
Elizabeth to come across a consign
ment of damaged hats offered for a
mere song. He bought the whole lot,
packed them away in his wagon and
started for Kafflrland.
When he reached Tembuland, he un
loaded his stock, opened his kegs of liq
uor, without which no trade was made
in those days, and began business. But
he found his venture likely to prove an
unprofitable one. The natives did not
want hats. They wanted blankets and
beads and looking glasses and above
all liquor, but they looked askance at
hats. Then a bright idea came to Ail
dries. lie wanted to introduce those
hats. lie did Introduce tliem. Ills sim
ple expedient was to refuse to sell any
thing to a Kaffir unless he bought a
hat too. The Kaffirs wanted Ids goods,
so they bought the hats.
When a Kaffir buys anything, he
feels hound to make use of It. The na
tives therefore donned their head gear
and returned to their kraals. Now ap
peared the brilliancy of the trader's
Idea. Fashion rules the world. It Is as
strong in Africa as In America, and
when those who had stayed at home
saw the travelers return in all the glo
ry of tills strange covering they felt
behindhand and old fashioned. Their
desire to possess the latest thing in
hats became intense. They paid Ail
dries a visit, and ids stock no longer
hung heavy upon his hands. The hats
were soon sold.
This happened some time ago, and
now every trading store keeps a supply
of hats constantly on hand. They are
said to be manufactured expressly for
the natives, and no one who glances at
the show will doubt it.

Indianapolis, lnd., Nov. 5. Returns
indicate that the Republicans have
made gains in the strong Republican
countioß and will carry the state by
from 25,000 to 30,000 majority. In
sonic of the pronounced Democratic
counties thp Democrats have made
gains, but signs point to the election of
nine Republican und four Democratic
representatives for congress, leaving
the delegation as at present constituted.
The Republicans have also elected a
majority of the state senators and rep

Why Diseases Become Chronic.
Nerve Force Regarded by
Scientists as More Import
ant Than the Blood.
A $4.00 TREATMENT FREE.
The blood was formerly regarded as
the life-giving principle and to its con
dition was attributed all that there was
of health or illness. Now, physiologists
know that nerve force and vitality are
the same, and that the constitution,
good or bad, depends upon nerve force.
Nerve force controls all motion, sen
sation, digestion and nutrition. An
abundance of this subtle energy means
health and vigor; a lack of it causes
general debility, nervous prostration,
premature decline, disease and death.
Nerve force is chiefly generated in the
brain, and therefore In the treatment
of all lingering diseases the condition
of the brain centers should bo carefully
considered and treated. One great
cause of diseases becoming chronic is
that physicians overlook the fact that
deficiency of nerve force is the chief
cause of most diseases. Nervous pros
tration Is duo to lack of nrve force.
Dr. Miles' Neuropathic Treatments
strengthen and invigorate the nerve
centers. They are the result of twenty
five years' careful study, extensive re
search and remarkable success. They
build up the system by increasing nerve
force, and have won for Dr. Miles the
thanks of thousands of sufferers.
Mrs. A. Kronck of Huntington, rnd., was
cured after thirty physicians Isiled; Mrs. Flora
Grnetor of Bristolville, O, after twenty-two;
Jus. K. Wuito, the noted actor, ufter a score
had pronounced him incurable; Mrs. Frank
Smith of Chicago, after live leading physic
ians had given her up; Mrs. Julius Keistcr of
Chicago, after ten; Mrs. It. Parker after six
teen failed.
The treatments are not generally ad
vertised, but every chronic sufferer is
invited to write for Dr. Miles free book
and Examination Chart. $4 00 worth
of treatment especially prepared for
each case will be sent free as a trial.

KANSAS.
IlepulilfcnnM Fleet Stnte Ticket mid
All CoiitcrcNHiiien.
Topoka, Kail., Nov. s.—Kansas has
gone Republican by at least 40,000 ma
jority. The entire state ticket and all
the congressmen are elected by the Re
publicans. The Republicans will have
100 members of the legislature.
The Democrats did not expect to
elect their state ticket, hut were sur
prised that W. N. Craddock, their can
didate for governor, did not run better
than he did. W. J. Bailey, the Repub
lican candidate for governor, runs
ahead of his ticket. A great tight was
made on T. T. Kelly, Republican can
didate for treasurer, but lie gained
enough from the Democrats to more
than offset any disaffection in the Re
publican ranks.
The Democrats had devoted more of
their attention to the legislature. There
was a factional fight among tjio Re
publicans for United States senator
which made it seem that the Demo
crats had a good chance to carry the
legislature. In a few counties they
made gains, but the Republican ma
jority in that body will be about the
same as last year. It was the most
complete Republican victory since the
days before Populism.
VlrKlnin'n ConuroNNinen Democratic.
Richmond. Va., Nov. s.—Returns are
coming in slowly, but the state certain
ly will show a full Democratic congres
sional delegation. The latest returns
from the Ninth district, where there
was the only serious contest in the
state, assures the election of Rhea
(Demi. There was very little interest
In the election, u complete victory for
the Democrats being a foregone con
clusion.
Hepnljllcan Senator From I'tnli.
Salt Lake City, Nov. s.—lndications
at midnight ore that William M. Mc-
Carty (Rep.) is elected associate jus
tice of the supreme court over Richard
W. Young (Drill.) by 2,500 plurality
and that the Republicans will have a
considerable majority in the legisla
ture, thus insuring the election of a
Republican United States senator to
succeed Senator Rawlins. Not onc
tentli of the state has been heard from.
In nearly every instance, however, Re
pubycan gains are shown, although
the total vote shows a falling off of 15
per cent.
Texas DemoerniN Tnke Everything.
Dallas, Tex., Nov. s.—The vote In
Texas for state and congressional of
fices was lighter than in 1900. The
Democrats swept the state, electing
Samuel W. T. Lanliam governor by a
heavy majority. Latest returns show
that the Democrats elected congress
men from all sixteen districts. The
only hard fight was in the Fifteenth
district, where John S. Scott (Rep.) was
defeated by John M. Garner (I)em.i.
The constitutional amendment requir
ing voters to pay a poll tax carried by
a good majority.
WlMconHln Elect* l.n Follette.
Milwaukee, Wis., Nov. 5.-Wisconsin
has gone Republican by 35,000 plurali
ty, and Governor Robert M. La Follette
and the complete Ntate ticket are elect
ed. The Republicans will also control
the next legislature, which will elect a
United States senator to succeed Sena
tor Spooner. In addition the election of
eight congressmen is certain, with prob
ably two more, if not tfio entire delega
tion. The candidates in the Fourth,
Fifth and Sixlh districts are having a
close run so far as the returns received
show.
Frnxler Governor of Tennessee.
Nashville, Teim., Nov. s.—Forty-two
counties heard from give James B.
Frazier, Democratic candidate for gov
ernor. a majority of. 57,830 votes. An
extremely light vote was cast, the re
sull being a sweeping victory for the
entire Democratic ticket. The legisla
ture will be largely Democratic in both
branches. The city of Nashville went ]
Democratic by a majority of 2,230.
