COMMERCIAL BANK, tHrfiil Him* 011 iiuly Itrntlcrit —A handkerchief of Indian crepe has a border of small pointed indenta tions and holes, between which are small bouquets in embroidery. Helio trope colored silk is used for the dow ers and the holes.. —Silk waists are worn with woolen skirts by girJs above eight years. They are trimmed with a frill or plait ed ruble around the neck and down the front, like a jabot. Cambric and Mad ras waists have shirt sleeves, high or rolled collar and a tiny yoke. —Tea gowns in erepon trimmed with jet, having lace yokes and sleeves, make elegant, lounging dresses, and wonderful mixtures of coloring were to be Seen,such as keep orange shot with red. A tea gown of this brilliant hue was trimmed with 'hot lisse to correspond. —A neglige jacket of salmon colored surah is given additional width in the right front length so as to close in bias. The jacket is so arranged as to form wavy folds in front. To the rather wide neck opening is attached a piece of the same material in bias folds and lace. The sleeves ai•»» also trimmed with the bias material and lace. Where the bias front closes is a ribbon mesh. —The young women nearly all af fect velvet empire sleeves, in such colors as red, yellow, vivid green or turquoise blue. To accord with this either a narrow fulling of velvet or Hat bands are carried across the front to the centre of the back, where a dia mond brooch appears to fasten them. —The Frencli skirt made in one piece with the lining is a pretty skirt for growing girls, as it is light in weight and will not blow up. A skirt too short is as unsuitable as one too long and the “happy medium” is easily found by trying skirts on a child until a length becoming to her size as well as her age is found. —Plain surah, hot-pressed with a crepe-like grain, is very useful for chemisettes, being somewhat more durable than crepe, anti moreover, not transparent. Soft Indian silk, mer- veilleux, China crepe, as well as the more pliable makes of satin, are in re quest for composing the fashionable Empire belts, so much worn with all dressy gowns. ALL ONE WAV. RlchM nro naught. A jewel crown May \>o undone, and gold will melt. Hut an ended puin la loup, long felt. Kisses nro sweet, but prayers are best: Only 1 he lips lo a kiss me given, Whilo tho soul goes with its prayer to Leuven. Dreams are shadows, yet sometimes come Like blessed curtains that drop upon The scorching of a noonday sun. Hopes betray us, but faith is suro, Nor asks for uu answer. Sho smiles and waits, A patient c hild at tho heavenly gate. Love over all! A Jewel crown, A pain that stays, and a prayer, a kiss, Dreams, hope, faith, patience are met In this. —Mary A. tie Voro in Ladies’ Homo Journal. HIS FEARFUL VENGEANCE.

To the Editor of the HkIiai.d. It is characteristic, both of the Third Party and Kephblioan lenders, to claim everything and concede nothing. A no less headlight than Col. Peek, Third Party candidate for the Govern orship, professses to believe that his majority will not be less than 25,000. lie only professes to believe such bosh for the sake of the bluff there is in it; but the Colonel has too much common sense, too much caution, to back up his predictions with his little pocket-book. Brother peek is leading the for- Iorhest of forlorn hopes, and he has long ago seen, if he is not blind ns n bat with prejudice, that his opponent, W. J. Northen, in the approaching Oc tober election, will receive the largest majority ever polled in the State. It is hard to tell what is really the matter with Peek. He Ims certainly of late been re-reading Munchausen; Gulliver, Rider Haggard, or some of Jules Verne’s bomb-shell trips to the moon. The Colonel will have to be a little more careful on what he bases his pre dictions or he may, much against his will, gain a reputation for being the greatest humorist of the campaign, without having said or done anything funny at all. However, laying badinage aside, it would be well for brighter Democratic prospects if every State in the Union could at this hour boast of an organi zation as compact and thorough as that of Georgia. It is our organization that will make tier the typical Democratic Gibralter of the South, against which the waves of Republican bate and fury will dash and thunder in vain. A few more rising and setting suns and the electric chords will glow and throb while Bashing the glad tidings through all the land that Georgia has gently laid the Third Party to rest in an eternal sleep within the tomb of the Capulets, while the poets will write, as a requiescat in pace, the mournful refrain— “As the mist on the mountain, The foam on the river. As the bubble on the fountain, They are gone and forever." A Jim D. Shiloh’s Catarrh Remedy, a mar velous care for catarrh, diphtheria canker mouth, and headache.

(8) The Awful I’nlc to iyiJeh Ot:§ Muii Con- Hl&iuid Uls tinted llival. “On a train, down in Indiana re cently-,” said a drummer ns he lit a fresh cigar and Etuided several around, "I was on a crowded passen ger coach and next to me sat a wild oyed looking man with what I thought was a gun in his pocket. He twisted around nervously for a few minutes after I had sat down beBide him and at last ho turned to mo: “ ’You seo that woman up tliarin tho foi’rud eontl of tho car,’ he said, ‘that un with tho green dress on and a slim feller srttin alongside of her?’ “She sat about ten seats abend of us and vi:s in reality a conspicuous object, so I could not deny seeing her. I nodded and ho went on: " ‘Well, she's my wife.’ “ ’Wliy aren't you up there with her?’ “ ‘She’s ’lopin,’ ho said briefly. “ ‘You mean she is running away with ilio man beside her.’ “ ‘That’s tho size of it, mister.’ “ ’Well, now that you have caught tho guilty couple I s’-pposo you will punish them severely?’ “Ho pulled hi; revolver out and I became exceedingly nervous. " ‘That looks like it might ho enough, don’t it?’ he asked with an ugly glitter in his eyo. “I didn’t know whether to call the conductor or what to do. ‘“You will do nothing desperate on tho car in the presence of the pas sengers?’ I said soothingly. "Ho looked at his revolver and tried tho hammer once or twice. , “ ‘You think this might settle it, don’t you?’ he repeated. "As itwfls about two feet long," with a hole in it like a tunnel, I could not doubt its efficacy, and said so. “ ‘I’m goin to have vengeance,’ he said in a hoarse whisper, ‘on that cuss, and lie’ll never forget it.’ “ ‘With that?’ I asked, nodding toward the gun. . “ ‘No,’ ho said, putting it away, much to my relief, ‘but with some thin a heap sight worse;’and I ex pected to see him draw a knife with a saw edge and hooks on the point. “ ‘What are you going to do?’ I in quired with a faint hope that the conductor would come along in time to prevent a panic and bloodshed. “ ‘Let him have her,’ he said with such a powerful sense of satisfied justice in his tone that I almost laughed right in his face. “He got off at tho next station, without having been seen by the runaways, and when I had got a look at tho woman and heard her voice, I was almost sorry I had not let the merciful revolver do its work.’’—De troit Free Press. A Boy with a Heart. First Little Gimp—Sacksey Swipes, he’s th’ right sort of a boy. Ho’a got a heart in ’hn. Second Little Chap—Wot did ho do? “Ye know his brudder got killed by a explosion last Fourt’.” “Yop. Too much powder in del- load pipe.” “Well, that little brudder had four packs o’ firecrackers wot lie didn't have time to shoot oil, an Sacksey never touched ’em.” “Didn’t?” “Yury one. He saved ’em till this Fourt'. Sacksey wasn’t around this Fourt'. D'ye know whore he was?” “Nope.” “He was off to der cemetery shootin off them firecrackers over his little brud- der’s grave.”—Good News. A Borden Kleoted Sumner. The name Borden, which has come so sadly into notice in connection with the lute Fall River murder, is one that has long been prominent in Fall River. It once furnished a Massachusetts member of congress in N. B. Borden, and a rep resentative in the state legislature from that town bearing it was the member who gave the vote that first elected Charles Sumner to the United States senate after the many weeks of that cel ebrated controversy. He was the only Whig who voted for Mr. Sumner, and his defection from the Whig party in sured Mr. Snmner’s success.—Boston Herald. 8hllah>. €«■■■!»« Cure.

The words of Shitkespeure, "One touch of nature makes- lab whole world kin,” were never moro forcibly illus trated than in tile caso of the paralyzed newsboy who-sits in awheel chair on tho corner of Fifth avontio and Twenty- third street. Ho first made Ids appear ance there about two years ago, and ids wan, pinched face plainly indicated that lie had long boon an invalid,. The newsboys all sympathize with 1dm. They help him fold and arrange his papers. On warm days they take turns fanning him, carry ilia little fold ing table and ussist him in various ways. Ono day during the Into hot spoil a ragged urchin with a bundle of papers under his arm, barefooted and dirt be rimed cad carrying a tin pail in his hand, Walked np to the cashier's window in a store not far from where the cripple sits. Rapping on the window lie at tracted tho attention of tho cashier, and 09 he stood on his tiptoes ho handed in his pall, while a smile as bewitching ns any socioty hollo is capable of encircled his dirty face, displaying a set of teeth pearly white and as beautiful as naturo could form them. His largo, lustrous, Bpnrkliug black eyes caught thoso of the cashier, and he said, “Say, mister, der lame bloke what soils papers in do wagon on der corner wants a drink of ice water," As tho man who handles the cash passed out tho pail of water the juvenile remarked, “Tanks, mister; yon know der kid’s awful lame and can’t walk." Tho New York newsboy is a rough, slangy, harmu scarmn, devil-may-care and ofton mischievous individual, but generally his heart is In the right place. —New York Herald. ED. L. WIGHT & 2U WASHINGTON 5T„ ALBAKV, GENERAL I AGENTS. No Straw Hats to Ho Hud. A gentlemun dosiring to buy a straw hat for his sou Btepped into a largo hat store down town the other day and as certained, much to his surprise, that Btraw hats were actually scarce in the market. Ho asked for a fl/£ lint, and was informed that tho firm’s supply of that particular size of hats was com pletely exhausted. Ho sought another lmt store and received similar informa tion, and a few hours later a visit to a large lip town store met with the same result. The gentleman’s curiosity was arouBedkind ho asked Beveral questions. He learned that the demand for straw hats VI been unprecedentedly large this setitpu, and that the supply of cer tain griujes and sizes is almost exliuuBted. The siztilof 0Jj is always in active de mand, ;aid the supply has fallen short this y>(A . . “The stocks' of slfalv hats ore dwind ling rapidly in every quarter,” explained a well known hat dealer, “and we cannot replenish this year, for the reason that tho factories Imre rnude np all of their straw and shut down. Next season they will probably increase their output, and the craze for straw lints may give way to something else. That is the way things run iu trade generally.” The scarcity of straw hats has caused a sharp advunce in the prices of certain grades of atrawB.—New York Times. The First Electrical Mill Tramroad. Tho Thorason-IIouston company has completed and put into operation tho first electric mill tramroad in Chicago, at the works of the Northwestern Terra Cotta company. The line is 1,700 feet long, including the loop. The overhead conductor consists of two No. 3 B. & 8. gnugo copper wives. As tho* power is supplied from an incandescent lighting plant it was doomed advisable not to uso one wire and rail for return current, so a double trolley system was installed. The line has six curves of less than forty feet radius. A loaded train can start from the works and unload in tho storage yard and continuo to tho clay sheds for a ro- tnm load for tho works. The track is three feet gauge, has 80-pound, T rail on pine ties, spaced two feet botween centers. Tlio greatest grade ts 4 per cent. The motor car is equipped with two 8-liofsepower railroad motors, hung on the axles. Tho motor bus hauled ten tons on a level track.—Now York Tele gram. Tho Ju[, Swallowed the Snake. A wonderful story reaches us from Japan of a snake sivallowor who has outdono all forerunners in the art. One called Baito Tora-no-suko was ono day breaking up some land, when he came upon u snake three feet long! Seizing it in his hands ho called out to his com panions that if they would give him four dollars ho would swallow the snake, Although dollars are scarce in Japan it is stated that the money was at once subscribed, the onlookers not believing that the bet would be won. But, true to his word, Salto put the head of the creature into his mouth and swallowed the whole three feet of snake without difficulty. The punishment of his temerity was swift and'fell. While his companions were gazing at him, speechless with horror and astonishment, he was seen to change color and fall to the ground In great pain, and he died In a few minutes.—St. James Budget. A Review In Fifteen Languages. Russian leviews are not often met with outside, of Russia, but they are bulky to a degree elsewhere unknown, and one of them would make four or five of our monthly magazines. Yet the newest of them leaves all the rest far behind. It is The Pantobiblion, pub lished at St. Petersburgin no fewer than fifteen different languages, and its aim is to provide professional and scientific men of all countries with a clew to the periodical literature, technical and’sci entific, of the world. This is a colossal undertaking, even for unprovlncfal St. Petersburg.—Free Russia.
