New Year's reception nt thn Whlto house ,

handsome people , absurdly young looUing to

The .KK ) young women of the Maryland

and over 1K ( ) of thorn have also given up
wearing garters. All the girls now wear the
Deliarto waist ? . Tin chntiKO wn * not nccom-
plishod without many mental struggle * and a
vast aiiiount of indecision. The girls were
not the subjects of " 'instantaneous conver

thin edge of the wedge was Intoned In the
physical culture class b.v the director. Miss
Helen M. Cole , who would not henr of any

Health waists and elastic stocking supports
fastened to the waist nnd border of thu stock-

That was last winter , when MM Colu llrst

the physical culture department. So the
girls unjoved nu hour or moro of bodily com-
lort oddi dnv. But when class tlmo wno
over thov all 'heroically went back to their
corsets. ' This Went on for a time until one or
two girls declared their intention of bidding
n final farewell to the bony structures.
Some viewed the reform with horror , but
gradually all of the girls fell in line with the
ndvnnco guard for the onward march to per

Polyglot window curtains area recent de
vice In house decoration which achieves the
most charming color utTonts if they are well
chosen , says tlio Now York Sun.
For instance , in the studio of an artist
over on West Twenty-third street there are
three low , wide windows with lattice frames
filled With cathedral glass In palo nmbor tint.
At each window hung two silken curtains ,
none of wh'ch ' nro allkoin color.
In ono corner a vivid yellow ou ono sldo of
tbo window , nnd the tor.dorest of springtime
green on the other , produce such a delicious
sunshiny Impression that ono glances invol
untarily at the old Dutch clocic 'clojo bv to
see if it doesn't point to high noon. Then
ono's eye wanders to the IJolft and old blue
wnro bunging near on the walls and standing
on UIQ window shelf , and the conviction that
no other window can excel that ono I ? only
disturbed when you como to the next. Then-
the hangings nro old rose and a dull , musty ,
metallic clue , in Juxtaposition with an old
"settle" of DOllshed mahogany , showing in
relief Against Us rich , dark coloring a pllo of
Pcrslriii cushions.
The third window makes in the dimest
corner a brightness llko tuo dawn in June.
The soft primro.-io shades of the morning sky
nud the morning and tbo pink Hush of the
clouds that."lleo away nt morning'1 nro re
produced In the thin , 'soft folds which are , as
in the case of tuoother curtains , sewn to tiny
rings and suspended on n slender brazen rod.
Sli-i'pliiK liut rrn Illnrlc Slii-i-ts.
The fad of wearing blaek silk undercloth
ing is sald'to bu dying out among New York
society women , and they are returning to
loss striking shades. This may bo duo to
the fact the fad of sleeping between black
sheets' is now being introduced nnd fincy
demands n ch'ingoof color for underclothing.
A real society woman could hardly bo ex
pected to invent anything new nnd the idea
of blank shoots comes from abroad. An item
was printed In the London Truth some time
ngo that n certain countess of something or
other- had .gone to sleeping between black
silk sheets. A Now York woman wrote at
once to n friend in London nnd had the re
port confirmed. Thereupon in Now York
that woman bestowed her own fair form be
tween tno'blackoat sheets that Gotham could
supply , and so the fad took root. The matter
wns the subject of canvass nt the charity
ball the ether nlirhl , nud the fact , was de
veloped that in ultrn-ioolish circles It Is now
considered quite the proper thing. When
these dollcatu ilainos learn that bl.ick dye
contains more nelson than any ottior , black
shoots and black underclothing may cease to
bo the rngu. Ll ht blue or light pink would
bo recommended by dyers In preference to
any other shade , If thny were consulted.
Trimming \Vliliciut llutH ,
Women have a great many ways of "pos
sessing" the Impossible , but ono of the
things that Is denied to most of them Is to
make n homo trimmed hat that will look llko
the work of a milliner. Tboy understand just
how It ought to look , but when they como to
work out their understanding through their
lingers , the lingers show their lack of educa
tion and fail to elvo tnoso deft and airy
touches that lend tbo proper air of distinc
tion to hcadgoar.
A shrewd milliner In Now York has put
forward the llrst bit of real helpfulness to
women who must do their own hot trimming
but are , nevertheless , not desirous of having
tlio fact proclaimed to thu world. In bis
show cases bo hun knots of ribbous and vel
vets of all hues made up with tlio very new
est twirl and twist , securely stitched and
ready to bu fattened on the bat or bonnet.
Some of them are dosicnod for the only doco-
raliou , and t > omo need feathers or other orna
ments to complete them.
Two ItmimrkuliliiVniiuii. . .
Two notable figures in tbo history of
northern Michigan dlod recently. Ono was
nu Indian woman of uncertain but great .170.
Her name was Margaret and she was n do-
ocndant of the Ottawa chiefs. She was
educated at u convent in St. Louis , Mo. , and
nnd was known to thousands of tourists as
"Aunt Margaret. " The ether was Sophia
Gravorcant , aged 10. . There Is no doubt
about borage. She was an educated French
woman , a family representative of the first
French tuttlcrs who followed Mttrquutto iuto
\vildonuiss , She was uorn nt Macinao
Island and was grown to womanhood at thu
tlmo the Island was cupturod by the British ,
during thu war of 181" . bho retained her
mental faculties to the last , and could con
verse most entertainingly of her early ox-
l > orioncos. Her husband and only son were
Killed lu the war.
Mri. Columlui * .
A chivalrous man is trying to awaken a
little Interest In Mrs. Columbus in this anni
versary of tuo discovery that made tier con
sort famous , says the Now York Sun. Ho
tolls us that bho was a Miss Palustrollo ,
which Is infinitely moro distinguished than
plain Mrs. Columbus. Her father wns a
naviirator , anil a a girl she made many haz
ardous voyngca in company with him. Sbo
possessed a tine education nnd was a brainy ,
ambitious woman , It may be possible that
she suggested the western excursion to her
lord and master and spurred him on to bis
discovery , like plenty of ether good wives to
whom the husbands owe their fame.

The Omaha council of the National Union
held Its regular semi-monthly mooting Mon
day evening , and dosplto the extreme cold
weather tharo was mi unusually largo nt-
leiidnncn of muiuoors. After the routine
business hnd boon transacted ibo bnlnnco of
the evening was devoted to soclid onjoymont.
Mr , Conner thu newly olertod president , an
nounced that It was his desire , during his
term of ollioa , to havn the social features de
veloped and not so tmuh : of the ordinary roll-
tlno of business as had previously character
ized , the meeting * . Ho expressed n dcsiro to
havotho nienibi > r.i.Jecoino better acquainted
with each other and moro of the time de
voted to 'social enjoyment , and stated tb.it
such a ROUND would hare u tendonoy to de
velop moro intercut on tlio pu'C of the mem
bers and ou an , ljlducomont for tlioin to be
more particular ill' their attendance at the
meetings. Uoia'pod ( that this particular
meeting would marie the beginning ot .such a
course , it being ttl6 lint moating nt which ho
had presided , " Ho called for volunteers
among those present to do what , they could
toward inaugurating such a program. The
result of his appeal must have been a very
pleasant surprise to him , as it surely was to
most of the o Uor members Drosont' The
council was favored with recitations , songs
ana speeches { from various members , nnd
oaeh and ovqry'ono ' present seemed to enter
Into the spirit o { the occasion wltn a zest and
earnestness wjliicpiwas very pleasing. Among
the many good things offered it would bo
hard to say that ijtay ono excelled the others ,
but It really seems ns'lf ' the roditation given
by Friend Snycbcc nnd the boaijtlful song so
well rendered * by _ Fi-S'snd LuU-d should bo
especially uiojUJ/jnjOd / as being without diubt ;
the finest ov.or.'Iw rd"at , uuy of yjo moeihifrs.
It was thir unanimous expression of the mem
bers present that if this was but tbo begin
ning nnd id the future 'tho'touncil wouM bo
still nloro favored in this direction , no nioni-
bor couhl possibly1 afford to miss a meeting ,
and each onu plougoa himself to not only
attend but to try and have something to
offer toward the entertainment of the coun
cil nt future meetings. President Conner
expressed himself as highly pleased twith his
first mooting and hopes before his term of
ofllco expires to inaho the National Union the
largest , and finest of the fraternal insurance
organizations in Omaha. The regular meet
ings are held on Iho first and third Mondays
of each montn at Elk's hall lodge room.

A Hebrew lawyer in Chicago , says Iho
Atlanta Journal , was engaged to d'ofi'inl
u man for murder , and after looking into
the naso concluded that the outlook was
very gloomy for the prisoner ; in fact ,
his conviction bcemed certain ,
\Vlien the jury was gotten together it
was found that tliero wore eleven Irish
men and ono Polish Jew in tlio boS.
The lawyer , fooling qnilo' di'spcrato ,
Bonirlit out the 1'ollsti Jew and < ; aid :
"I'll give you $ . " ) ( ) ( l if you'll gut that
jury to bring in a verdict of manIaugi- |
lei understand , manslaughter. "
The juror promised to do his bo.st , anil
sure enough , after being out some time ,
the jury returned a verdict of man-
slaughter.
The lawyer was overjoyed and allnosl
embraced the I'olisli Jew w.ion hoasliod
for his mouoy.
Iiiit the juror looked sorrowfully at
tlio $5(10 ( in his hand and said :
"I dinks you ought to make it 91,01111. '
"A thousand ? Thu devil ! and why" " '
"Vol , yor so , 1 had an awful time goi
ting der jury round. Dpso 'luven Irish
folloivs wux all fur acquittal , "

ders were expressed somnlinioH during
Iho civil war : "In a corlain hattlu a
confederate commander stood upun a
hill top gloomily watching the union
battery which was making havoc of his
troops. At the foot of the hill , on the
ether side , was his last body of reserves ,
by his side stood his aido-de-uainp in
shirt sleeves. 'Tom , ' said the general
quietly , never turning his head , but IIH
lips quivering , 'I wantthom guns want
'em bad. ' The aide nodded , turned his
hoi'ho and dashed down hill to tlio ro-
horvos. 'Uoyn , ' ho shouted , jorkiiig Ills
thumb ever his shoulder lo\vanl tlio hill
top , "there's a poor old gent up them ,
and ho says ho wants them guiiB * wants
'em b.id. .Shall wo got 'em for himv'
Tlio 'poor old gent' got the guns anil this
victory. "
