Bloomers have become so numerous in the cities that they no longer pro¬ voke comment. In the town of Howard, Kan., is a girl only eleven years old, who is a successful teacher of music. Some young woman are wearing their watches set like a large button on the lapel of their jackets. Miss Lizzie Buckwalter, of West Lebanon, Ohio, is defendant in slan¬ der suits aggregating $114,000. Queen Victoria has signed the bill making full woman suffrage in South Australia an accomplished fact. Among tho inventors of trolley fenders is a Brooklyn young woman named Miss Margiierita Maidhof. Queen Victoria onco said of the women of Ireland that every third Irish woman she saw was beautiful. The Gospel, according to the new woman, seoms likely to bo ono of tho latest products of tho nineteenth cen¬ tury.

Worth $24,000 for a costume, which contained nearly $23, 000 worth of lace. Tho Princess of Bulgaria goes to market afoot at Sofia, walking about from stall to stall unattended and lay iug in her family supplies. Two illustrious English women who celebrate this year the seventy-fifth anniversary of their birth are Flor¬ ence Nightingale and Jean Ingelow. Twenty bicycle girls, attired in bloomers, turned out tho other day with pioks and shovels at East Lynn, Conn., and mended the worst places in tho roads. The old Ameer of Afghanistan has been pulled through a serious illness by the medical aid of Miss L. Hamil¬ ton, a young woman doctor^ from Ayer, Scotland. Tho first woman to bo graduated from St. Andrew’s University, Scot¬ land, is said to bo Miss Blaokadder, the daughter of a Dundee architect. Sho is nineteen years old. Tho wife of Ho Yen Suing, tho Chi¬ nese Consul-General to Washington, is a attractive little woman, who, with her maid, attracts great attention when she appears in public. English women are showing an in¬ clination to bedeck themselves with jewels in daytime, which they admit is bad taste, and to which little failing they have long accused Americans of giving way. Mary Moore Davis, who became well known in the literary world through her charming story, “Under the Man Fig,” is the wife of Major Davis, political editor of tho New Or¬ leans Picayune. Mrs. Frederic T. Greenhalge, tho wife of the Massachusetts Governor, is at tho head of a committee which is busy getting together an exhibit of historical portraits and relics to send to the Atlanta Exposition, Though the Empress of Austria can procure anything edible that a most fastidious palate can desire she relies mainly for sustenance on milk. Her taste for that seems exacting enough, for she will not take any kind but that furnished by a cow from Corfu. The extent to which women carry dress-suit cases nowadays was illus¬ trated the other day by a group of three youug women who stood at the curbstone in Broadway, New York City, waiting for an opportunity to cross. Each carried a dress-suit case. Small checked taffeta, plain or with changeable grounds, are being made up into pretty summer gowns. The checks are never over half an inch in size, and usually much smaller, though somesvhat larger than tho fa¬ miliar pinhead patterns of other sea¬ sons. Hosiery is changing in fashion. Whilo black remaius the standard, there is a decided call for fancy styles of all sorts. Some extremely hand¬ some samples in fancies are shown, and the indications are that costumes will be matched in all shades from black to white. Miss Plulbrook, of Jersey City, N. J., will probably be tho first woman in New Jersey to enjoy the privileges of the recent act of Governor Werts, by which women arc made eligible for admission to tho bar of the State. Miss Philbrook has made a plucky tight for her rights. One has to guard against the ten¬ dency to overturn which is so very manifest just now. The fashion is rep¬ rehensible on the score of extrava¬ gance, and is likewise objectionable as tending to vulgar ostentation, with¬ out the compensating advantage of improving the appearance of those who wear garments and millinery that are excessively decorated, Counterfeit Dimes. Counterfeit silver 10 cent pieces that contain as much, if not more silver than genuine coin, have been discov¬ ered in the United States subtreasury. They have been received from banks and are so curefully made that it re¬ quires the trained eye of an expert to detect their bogus character. The coins have the appearanco of being well worn, a result of careful work on the part of the counterfeiter and a valuable aid to their circulation. Sev¬ eral of the coins have been sent to the secret service officials, who pronounce them most dangerous counterfeits and express tho belief that they were made in Europe and sent to this country for circulation. — Philadelphia llecord..

Chicago , has , been interested . . . , recently ,, by some experiments with a new chem ical compound designed to take the place of ice. I he chemical c< sti 20 cents a pound. t is p aced in the ice box of a refrigerator, a s nail amount of water is added to cause it to dis solve; the refrigerator is then closed and cold results immediately. he inventor says that the compound con tains 11 ingredients, and the formula is a secret. I he mixture is light pink in color, and is in the form o crys tals like coarse salt. It is said to be perfectly harmless, and has an alka me taste. Mhen moistened it instant ly becomes intensely cold. Ihe effect lasts wenty-four hours, or until the crystals are entirely dissolved. Then it is placed on a fire and “boiled down” until the water evaporates and the crystals are left in their original form. It is then ready for use again by simply adding fresh water. It is asserted that the chemicals lose none of th#ir properties by the process and that the crystals can be used for years. During the Chicago tests ice was frozen to the thickness of window glass in a few minutes, and to the thickness of two or three inches in less than six hours. The experiments were successful in every way, and ice dealers ought to be particularly interested in them. There is little doubt that before many years a refrigerating appartus will be devised by which houses may be cooled in summer as easily as they are now warmed in winter. The new refrigera¬ ting compound may be an important factor in the solution of this problem. ODDS AND ENDS. Almost five-eighths of the steamers in the world are under the British flag. The first steam engine of this con¬ tingent was brought from England in 1753. Excavations in Egypt have brought to light evidence that the game of chess was known and played there 3300 B. 0. That game is still going on. At Salta, in Argentina, a list of boys and girls who have failed to attend school regularly is published in the newspapers. They don’t do things in a half-heart¬ ed way in China. Their national hymn is so long that people take half a day to listen to it. The Chinese believed when telegra¬ phy was introduced into their country that foreigners cut off the tongues of children and suspended them on the insulators to transmit the message from pole to pole. The two most widely separated post offies in the United States are those of Key West, Fla., and Ounalaska, Alas¬ ka, 6,271 miles apart.
