For yeftrrt tho caV toonlfts ot tho east i6N-(r Jf have utilised urn rytV y ' features as typical ' J .of tho wild flnil woolly politician! ot tthe west. Ho has been caricatured more than any man on this continent, with tho possible ex ception of BlftlnG, Sherman and Cleve land. Unlike most politicians ho takes It all In good part. He honestly lleves that all the pople will yet como to his way of thlnklnc and that In the not distant futuro we will nave govern ment ownership of everything worth owning, to say nothing of bUshelH of money that will be laBuefl In payrnsnt thercor, Like most of the populist lead ers, Senator Peffer got his first otart In Ilfo aa a printer's devil. Printers UevilH have a habit of rondlng tho proofs which pass through their hands, and young Peffer was no exception to the rule. In thlB way ho accumulated con siderable knowledge. When ho suc ceeded to tho proof-reader'a desk he was able to read a market report back wards. And It is said that ho used to read that way. A facetious writer has remarked that that Is how he got It Into his hend that tho world was pro gressing backward. Anyway, by the time he succeeded to the editorial chair ho was firmly convinced that things were upside down generally, and ho succeeded in making other people agree with him. He entered political life and In a icmarkably short time found him self oleoted to a seat In the United States senate. Today he Is looked upon as tho logical candidate for president by a large portion of his party. Aside from his political vlows, Sena tor Peffer would attract general admlr tor Peffer would attract general admi ration. He Is a strict temperatlon ad ovll by inches. He Is a devout christian and believes that finally the reign of the christian spirit will .dissolve the trou bles of our times. His home Is a happy one. While in New York the other day Mr. Peffer took occasion to tell a reporter some things about his patty. He said: "It is a mistake to suppose that tho populist party is decreasing In strength. We are gaining. We shall call a con vention next year and put a ticket Into the field. Our platform will be reform In 'finance, direct taxation, better ro turns to labor for Up toll and govcrn- DISHOP IRELAND. lllogmphlritl Sketch of n Mticlt Talked About Catholic 1'rcUte. Archbishop Ireland of St. Paul, as an orator, has gained a nnttonal reputa tlon. Ho was born In Burnchurch county, Kilkenny, Ireland, Sept. 11, 1S38. His parents emigrated to the United ntntes when ho was a boy, and settled In St. Paul, Ulnn. Ho went to Paris In September, 1853, entered the Petit Semlnalre of Mexlmeux, and fin ished the course In four years, half tho Usual Urne. After studying theology In the Grand Semlnalre ftt Hyers, he re turned to St, Paul In 1801, and was or dained In December of that year. Ho soryed na chaplain of tho Fifth Minne sota regiment during a part of tho civil wnr, and was afterward appolntod rec tor of the cathedral at St. Paul. In 1389 ho organized the first total absti nence society In tho state. In 1870 he went to Homo as tho ncct edited repre sentative of Bishop Orare at tho Vati can. After his consecration as coadju tor bishop of St. Paul in 1875, ho under took tho work or colonization In the Northwest. Ho made largo purchases of land tit Minnesota, which woro tnk tfn up by nine hundred Homan Catholic colonist, Ho then bought twelve thou MA NOT ALL KILLED BY SHOT. Splinter Were More Destructive Than Mltktle In the Eastern Wnr. The recent wnr between Japan and China has . taught the officers of tho Amorlcan nary at least ono now thing in tho construction of vessels. There will bo Gcarceljr nny woodwork in tho Oregon, that Is rapidly ncarlng comple tion at tho Union Iron works. This Is duo to tho fact that thoro were moro peoplo killed and injured in tho naval battles in the orient by flying wooden splinters than b7 tho bullets or explod ing shells. Most of tho cruisers and battlo ships that took part in tho war woro constructed with Bteel hulls, and nil of thetn were moro or less protected with heavy arrnor plates. Tho interior fittings and furnishings of tho quarters and tho deck coverings, however, wero of wood. When a shot pierced tho hull of n vessel and toro through tho wood In tho interior of tho ship splinters wero sout flying In all directions. In most capes tin shot paescd through tho ve3sol without injuring any of the crew, hut tho shower ot wooden splinters filled tha sicl: bay nnd kopt tho sailmakor sowing up thq rtoad In canvas sacks for burial. On tho battleship Oregon prac tically no wood will bo used. All tho bulkheads and partitions dividing tho roomB in tho olflccrs quartore aro to bo of Iron. No wood will bo used on tho decks, but Instead linoleum will be cemented to tho Iron deck to prevent slipping. All tho doors will bo of Iron, and nil those leading to tho decks will bo mndo watertight. WOMAN AND HOME. UP TO DATE READiNQ DAMES AND DAMSELS.

Father McKcever, of the Church of St. John tho Baptist, is organizing a novel totnpernnco socloty. It is non coctarlnn and its members will ho per mitted tho use of light beer and wines In moderation. Should tho plans of tho organization become popular tho liquor buslnefs of this country will bo entire ly revolutionized. While a total ab stainer hlmsolf, Father McKcever be lieves In temperance in all things. Tho work of his society will bo educational. It is to go into homes and toach tho scionco of living. What food is bo3t suited to individuals according to the work they do, and how to proparo it, tho-omountsj-noeoasary.for-fijO'piusaar-, vatlon of health and strength will ho taught them. For tnoso who Uesiro alcoholic stimulants tho use of beer and light wines will bo advocated.

Father Mc Keover 13 arranging for a mass meet ing at which his ideas will bo ex plained. Ho is, pastor of ono of tho largest Roman Cathollo churches In this city. Ho also proposes to reform peoplo who cat too much. What Mnlto n Mnn Ho Thin? What makes a man of 30 or 40 take a sailboat when ho can't Ball it, put in his frionds or family for ballast, and go right out to capsizing and tragedy? You can't answer that any moro than you can explain how such a fool has made out to survive to his present age. Why didn't he reach his deserved fate long before? No one can say. Enough that it does onertako him and ho gets from ten lines to a column in tho paper, ac cording to how big a fool he was. At tho Bhoro we sco sailboats run away out into tho sound, until they can hardly bo seen, nnd when tho clouds come up and it begins to thundor the venture somo amateur who is awny out there is the last to start for Bhelter. Ho doesn't know enough to know his danger. So it goes oach summer, and each summer has its long string of drowning trage dies for a part of its history. But, ns wo said before, no ono summer docs it up completely, so as to give civilization a fresh chance. A lot of people are drowned for their folly this year who lived through last year, which was Just aa good a year for drowning, and a lot will Hv7 through this year and go out nnd drown in 1S9G as readily a3 if they wero led. Ex. ASHION Is not of ten kind to tho pov erty stricken ones In her domain, but this season Bhc has made n decided move In our favor by smiling upon the old-fashioned al paca goWns. For this material means much to us. It has that soft, shimmer ing effect sought after these days nnd Is very serviceable, also, since It does not crush or wear rough. In fact, It is an ideal material for ono who must look well to tho wherewith she will be clothed. If you wish a charming gown get one of white alpaca, with perfectly plain skirt and tight-fitting waist. Have It made with a plain stock collar. Have made also a Jacket as shown In Ulustratlon.ot blue serge. The Jacket is shorter than those worn last year and Is godeted below the waist line. It has peculiar square revers tho upper ones of white alpaca which are slashed and edged with braid. The hat worn with this costume Is of rough blue straw. Into the trimmings Is Intro duced that combination of blue and green which Is so fashionable. If, how ever, you wish to wear the gown on a dressy Indoor occasion you may cross the bodice with a Marie Antoinette fichu cf some delicately colored chiffon or you may wear a broad sailor collar and with It a front of soft, lacey material, and so on. Given such a good founda- water. The accompanying Illustration presents another model for the employ ment of mohair; the godets of lis skirt being esecially adapted to this fabric because of their unusual depth. The blouscd waist has Jacket pieces of em broidered batiste let In at the stdc seams, and straps of the same extend across the shoulders In back and front as far as tho waist line, where they meet an embroidered belt. There arc a great many acceptable models for this material, and Its present popularity Is so great that tho danger of going wrong ts lessened. Helpful In Mnkc-Otcr. There Is shown below a handsome In door dress of pink crepon figured wltb pale and dark blue. Hero the godet skirt has unusual trimming, four wldo bands of ribbon ending In four-looped bows upon Its sides and front. This ribbon matches the dark blue of the dress goods' figure, and making the SENATOR PDFFER ment ownership of railroads' and other great pnbllo corporate Interests. "As to the silver question, I don't be lieve It will be tho dominant Issue next year. The agitation Is already ceasing; that Is, tho camp-meeting part of tho .discussion is over, and people aro get ting down to tho thinking. The silver question Is ono of continual Interest; hut, like cvory other public question, interest-In It flows and ebbs. Interest Is now on the ebb. I hardly think there will be a silver ticket in the field. If there Is U will be separate from the populist, unless It unites with us.

The .MtuiUIon has been this. For several years thti manufacturers vastly over produced. It wnB ncoeftsary for them to get rid ot this surplus product, so, gradually, they docroasod their output, until tho country was down to bedrook and tho manufacturer! had disposed of their old stocks.

In tho Danish budget a curious tax entitled tho "rank tax" Is calculated to produce 3,201. Social rank Is highly prized in Denmark, and everyone of any consideration has his clearly denned po sition in the social hierarchy. A valuable Greek inscription has re cently been added to the Louvre. It comas from tho neighborhood of DJerach. In Syria, and contains portions of an anolent law concerning tho main tenance ot vineyards and their pro tection against thieves. Mohair' the Stuff. Mohair reigns, but there are many kinds and the sort that glares with a stove-blacking brilliancy and folds In a crackly way Is the mohair you must not get. The right kind has a heavy weave and a sof, silk-like luster; It takes the present organ-pipe folds as gracefully as silk docs, and It outwears a silk three times, and always looks well. No mat ter how many other dresses one has, one of this stuff In black will not be amiss. Make the skirt full, Just clear ing the ground, and absolutely plain. Let the bodice Ht perfectly, a single box-plait being applied front nnd back, that in the back fitting closely to the form, tho front ono loosened a little. Have a wide belt that fastens at the side with a big cut Jet button, a corre sponding button being on tho other side, and a collar of the same design apparently fastening at each side under a big cut Jet button, ana let a pair oi Bllk-llned tabs or straps, finished with a point and a Jet button, hang loosely from either side front of tho belt.

Such a dross will serve In any place. Added dressiness can come by setting four buttons down tho front box-plait. Wear a large, black rough straw hat trimmed with a pair of knots o,f white mull and two upright oock's feathers, white gloves, with black stitching, and oarry a white silk parasol. A really faultless rig for ordinary street wear will result. Mohair, by the way, Is surprisingly cool, and sheds dust as a duck's back sheds front pair of bands shorter than tho side ones Is essential to the effect, un important as It may seem at first thought. The blouse overhangs the belt in front, and at the top there Is a tiny plastron of blue satin with draped collar to match. A huge butterfly bow of the dress goods Is placed In front and Is tied with dark blue. The later color, too, appears in sleeves and belt. Double skirts arc occasionally seen, and though often so ungraceful as to be un desirable, the ono whose description fol lows Is an exception because it adapts itself so well to the remodeling of a gown to whose front breadth some dis figuring accident has befallen. Only its front Is double, on apron piece a little shorter than the skirt being set on over the front breadth. Its Joining with tho skirt proper Is made ns nearly invisible as possible to well over the hips. Then the apron piece is allowed to swing tree of tho skirt. Its edge Is bound with a bright braid from the place where tho attachment to the skirt stops, a lino of the same braid Is carried dpwn the side Beam of the skirt, and the edge of the apron part is attached to this side seam by three or four drooping straps of braid. The apron piece may be ot material contrasting with the rest of the skirt, and tho Injured part of tho original skirt Is thus concealed. An adaption of the design meets the diffi culty of a skirt with tho back badly frayed at the foot by the droop a skirt will have there even when tho front may be all right. A Bhort length of skirt material contrasting with the skirt will combine and make a new ef fect according to this model. Make a full back and attach It to the front of the old skirt. The scant residue of the Beeond material will make the short apron front, which will fall over tho good front of tho first skirt. Droroea of D.utio Fashion. Panama hau, with a plain velvet, band are very much worn. For home wear or more drewy oc casions the gowns are all extremely light this son. Ribbons are used still in the greatest profusion, and are measured by the mile instead of the yard. Tho ruffled skirts havo. caught the popular tate Just now, and several of the new models show .them. An English straw hat Is trimmed with klltel ribbon of black and white, fas tened on with a rhlnestone buckle. A very odd Bkirt, otrcular in Bhape, Is laid in Inch tucks, encircling the figure from waist to hem. It is more strange than graceful. The pinks .purples and mauves, so much used of late, are a little out now, and light blue and llmt-blossom green have taken their place. Pretty combs and pins add greatly to the beauty of tho hair, and never before was there sueh a wealth of these ranments displayed. OOT INVALIDS JOHN CARLE & SONS, New Yok. DR.
