Who Sot the Fashions?
As respects the lauuebingof fash tour
for ladies, it is not improbable that
well-known names, whether they lie
aristocratic, operatic or dramatic,
render very signal service in enabling
successive types of the good ship,
“Fashionable Frivolty,” to walk the
waters like so many things of life; but
before it is constructed it must be dc
visod, and, if not absolutely invented,
it must be skillfully adapted from
some bygone inode, just as at the pres
ent our custumieres are reviving the
leg-of-mutton sleeves, tho long man
tles, the feather boas, the high muffs,
and the voluminous hats of 1830. Yet
another factor is required in the intro
duction of anew or resuscitated fash
ion. There must be individuality,
aud that of the strongest kind, in the
dress maker or tbo bonnet-builder, be
these artists male or female. The
purveyor of toilets must be a person
age ; there must be a great Worth or a
Felix, who for a while is Pontifex
Maximus of the mode, aud before
whom the entire “smart” world bows
down and accepts implicit/ bis im

NO AUDIENOK FOR COXEY.

A Washington dispatch says: By a
vote on the Peffer resolution, the sen
ate Monday showed that it had no
sympathy with the Coxey movement.
The resolution was put upon its pas

All the democrats except one voted in
the negative. The resolution was to
appoint a committee to receive the
representatives of the army ami hear
them. The aeuators are perfectly

Ex-Governor Thomas J. Jarvis has
been appointed United States Senator
from North Carolina to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Senator Vanoe.

The appointment gives general sat
isfaction, and Senator Jarvis is receiv
ing hundreds of congrstulations. It
is said he will, when the legislature
meets, become a candidate for Senator
Ransom's seat, and thus let a western
man become a candidate to fill out the
remainder of Senator Vance's term of
two years.

NATIONAL CAPITAL
WHAT 18 GOING ON AT UNCLE
SAM’S HEADQUARTERS.
Comment Concerning Transactions In
the Various Departments.
Roger Q. Mills is to succeed the late
Senator Vance on the committee on
finance.
During the past two years five United
States senators from the southern states
have died at their post of duty. They
were Senators Barbour, of Virginia;
Kenna, of West Virginia ; Gibson, of
Louisiana; Colquitt, of Georgia, and
Vance, of North Carolina. All of
them, except Senator Gibson, died in
Washington.
The executive session of the senate
Friday afternoon was devoted to rou
tine business, the only matter of inter
est being tho adverse report on the
nomination of Charles H. J. Taylor to
lie recorder of deeds for the Distriot of
Columbia. The committee on the nom
ination voted eight to two for confirm
ation, and, in accordance with that
vote, Mr. Proctor made the report.
The House committee on elections,
Friday, decided the contested election
case of Thrasher agaiust’Enloe, from
the Eighth Tennessee district, iu favor
of Enloe, the siting member. Six
democrats voted for Enloe, Waugh of
Indiana and Thomas of Michigan, re
publicans, withheld tlieir votes. Waugh
is of the opinion that neither Thrasher
nor Enloe is entitled to a seat in the
Honse, aud favors another election.
Tho republicans do not agree to the
majority report, aud will submit a mi
nority vote expressing their views.
The announcement of the appoint
ment of ex-Goveruor Jarvis to fill out
Vance’s uuexpired term as senator from
North Carolina meets with general
commendation at Washington. The
members of the North Carolina dele
gation speak highly of Jarvis’ ability.
The general impression among North
Carolina politicians is that, notwith
standing the fact that Jarvis comes
from the same part of the state as Ran
som, in the western portion, his ap
pointment will srrengthen Ransom in
his race. The appointment will, how
ever, doubtless give offense to tho west
ern section, Vance's old territory.
Can Sit in the Galleries.
Representative Harmer, of Philadel
phia, called on Sergeaut-at-Arms Bright
Friday,prior to the arrival of the Phil
adelphia wage earners, to confer with
him as to tlieir reception at the capi
toi. Ho said they came disclaiming
any connection whatever with the
Coxoy movement, bnt as working
men able to pay their own expenses,
and desired to nttcr a protest against
the passage of the Wilson bill.
Colonel Bright said thoy would be
treated just as any other American
citizens visiting the capitol. He point
ed out the law bearing upon invasion
of the capitol grounds, which prohib
its organizations of any kind inarch
ing through them as such, and said,un
less overruled by higher authority, he
would see that the law was enforced in
this respect, as in all other cases com
ing under his jurisdiction. He said,
however, if thoy came in a peaceable,
orderly manner there would be no in
terference with their privileges, and
they would be entitled to scats in the
senate galleries as long as they were
uot occupied.
THOUSANDS ARE OUT
REPORTS CONCERNING THE EX
TENSIVE STRIKE OF MINERS.
Mure Than I‘A”,OOO Men Have Thrown
Down Tlielr I'trk and Shovel.
A special from Colnmbus, Ohio, says:
President John Mcßride, of the United
Mine Workers, received reports from
a number of hia lieutenants in the dif
ferent coal fields Monday, the most
importnut of which is the following
from Murphysboro, III.:
“Murphysboro, the supposed key
to the situation in southern Illinois, is
solid; also the Dmptesne district.
Everything is favorable, and 2,600
are out."
It is signed by Organizers Fahy and
Penna. The leaders had little hope of
inducing the southern Illinois miners
to join the strike, and this is an unex
pected addition to the strikers’ forces.
Mcßride revises his figures as to the
number of miuers out at present as
follows: Alabama, 8,000; Tennessee
and Kentuckv, 5,000; West Virginia,
2,000; Indiana, 5,000; Ohio, 26,000;
Illinois, 27,600; Pennsylvania, 50,000;
Indian Territory, 2,ooo;Michigan,3oo;
lowa, 1,300.
The following is the substance of
the news given out at the headquarters
Monday:
The Maryland miners will bold a
state convention to determine whether
they will join the strike as a whole or
not, on Thursday of this week. South
ern lowa is not all out but the miners
of the state will meet at Albia May'2d,
to decide what action the state organi
zation will take. The Indian Territory
is out solid. Many miners are out in
the New River aud Kauaw ha River dis
tricts, but the miuers will hold a con
vention at Charleston, W. Vo., to agree
on united action. Tim miners of the
Wheeling and Moundville districts
have been offered the wages demanded
by the scale, but they have been or
dered not to go to work until there is
a general settlement of the strike. The

strike on May Ist, There is danger
that the miners in West Virginia who
have been offered the scale wages will
accept, and thus weaken the strike at
a dangerous place.

general remark that Jarvis has thrown
down the gauntlet to Senator Ransom
and has made a bold stroke.

HINTS TO HOUSEWIVES.
Use old matting under carpet
A pail of cold water will purify the
air of tho room.
For grease spots, equal parts of ether
and chloroform are good.
Keep a dish of water on tho back of
the stove to purify the air.
A large, soft sponge, either dry cr
slightly dampened, makes a good dus
ter.
Mix powdered pipe clay with water
to removo oil stains from wall-paper.
Put a strip of wood back of the
door where the knob hits the paper iu
opening.
Before laying a carpet wash the floor
with turpentine to prevent buffalo
moths.
A teaspoonful of ammonia to one
teacupful of water is good for clean
ing jewelry.
“Eat slowly and yon will never
overeat,” is the advice of a hale and
hearty old man of seventy-five.
Never enter a sick room in a state of
perspiration, as the moment you be
come cool your pores absorb.
Do not approach contagious diseases
with an empty stomach nor sit between
the sick aud tho fire, because the heat
attracts the vapor.
If the shelves and floors of closets

borax aud alum, roaches and other ver
min ore kept at bay.
Bacteria is likely to be blamed
for the ills that flesh is heir to. Pro
fessor Schenck now maintains that
whut we call a “cold" is really due to
these invisible pests. When one en
ters J (told room, after being heated,
says the Chicago Herald , the bacteria
flock to the warm body, and enter by
the open pores of the skin. Whatever
may be said of tliiß hypothesis he
seems to prove by experiment, that
bacteria in the neighborhood of a warm
body move toward it.

Mrs. P. L. Inman, of Manton, Wexford
Cos., Mich., whose portrait heads this article,
writes as follows: “I began taking Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription about a rear
ago. For years I have suffered with falling
and ulceration of the womb, but to-day, I
am enjoying perfect health.
I took four bottles of the * Prescription 1

Miss Mary J. Tanner, North Lawrence,
Bt. Lawrence Cos.. N. Y.. writes: “I was
sick for four years. For two years I could
do no work. I hod five different physicians,
who pronounced my case a poor or impov
erished condition of the blood, and uterine
trouble. I suffered a great deal with pain in
both sides, and much tenderness on pressing
over the womb. I bloated at times in my
bowels and limbs; wno troubled with leu
corrhea. I could not sleep, and was troub
led with palpitation of the heart. Suffered
a great deal of pain in my he£.J, temples,
forehead and eyes. I had a troublesome
cough, raised a great deal and at times ex
perienced a good deal of pain in my cheat
and lungs. My voice at times was very weak.
I suffered excruciating monthly, periodical
pains. Bince taking seven bottles of Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription some time ago,
I have enjoyed better health than I have for
more than four years previously; in fact,
for several months past I have boen able to
work at sewing. I have gained in weight
thirty-nino pounds since taking your medi
cines ; the soreness and pain have disap
peared.” Yours truly,

Mrs. Alex. Robertson, of Half Rock, Mer

suffered with womb dueass and most of the
time I was in constant pain which rendered
life a great burden. I cannot express whet
I suffered. I bad eight doctors and all the
medicine I had from them failed—the one
after the other.
I was nervous, cold hands and feet, palpita
tion, headache, backache, constipation, leu
corrhea and no appetite, with bearing-down
pains. 1 got so weak 1 could not walk
around. I had to keep my bed, thinking I
would never get any better.
One day ray husband got one of your little
books ana read it to me. He said there was
nothing doing me any good. I said I would
try Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. I did
try it. After the first few weeks my appe
tite was better ; I was able to sit up in bed.
I wrote to the World's Dispensary Medical
Association, at Buffalo, N. Y., and described
my case; they sent me a book on woman's
diseases. I read carefully and followed the
directions as near as I could and took the
medicine for two years. With the bleesing
of God and your medicines, 1 am entirely
cured. That was three years ago.”
Yours truly,
