His idea is that a wite should do and think as her husband wants her to, and under this arrangement marriage is not a tailure. A FEEBLE attempt w as made to en- torce the Sunday liiiuor law in New York last Sunday, 'the police found ooO saloons doing business, but oulv managed to make eighty-two arrests. There is connivan. e or melHeiency somewhere. A SEVERE wind storm accompanied by hail and rain visited Covington, Ind. Sunday alternoon. Hailstones as large as walnuts covered the ground to the depth ot about lour and one-half inches. Many windows were destroyed and considerable damage was done to crop.s.

Another prominent public man has ceased from his labors, and departed this life to join the silent majority. .Mr. Randall died peacefully at five o’clock on Sunday morning, at his resi dence on Capitol Hill in Washington. Around the bedside were gathered the family, his brother Robert E Randall, Dr. Mallen and Postmaster-General Wanamaker. who had all kept a con stant watch over the dying man during the night. A lew minutes before Lis death he had opened his eyes and look ing tenderly at his wite said in a low tone “Mother,” a vvord instinct with all the fondest recollections ot their long and happy married ll*e, and by which he always called his wite when none but the lamily were near. It was the only one he uttered tor liours preced ing his death. This word he mured so low that the only one who recognized what he said was his daugli- ter, who was kneeling ju s t behiiid-hini. Mr. Kanduirs illness dates back about five years. When Dr. 'rtiomas F. Malian, who attended him throagh- out his later illness, was called in to treat him lor the gout, .fuly i», is.ss, Mr. Randall was suddenly seized with a violent dianhwa and hemorrhags during the night, due to hastily eatlur a dish of ice cream and berries during the day. Thhs hemorrhage severe as to completely prostrate him and his lite was- in imminent danger. For some tim e previou.s to this he had been troubled with what he supposed were hemorrhoids. 'Ihe diarrhu-.il at tack caused the disease to assume active form, and it was found that he was suffering trom an extensive and malignant abscess. This caused oils hemorrhages which greatly de pleted his system and left him weak and emaciated He put himselt fier- manently under the physician’s care and Dr. Malian-attended him constantly while he yvas in W'ashington.

Princess Beatrice is at Aix-les-Bains taking a course of twenty-one btiths with tho view of reducing her surplus. She weighs about 210 pounds. Mrs. Shaw, the whistler, whose en gagement to an English earl is re ported, will be remembered bj' many. Mrs. Shaw was born in Elmira, N. Y , and when quite young came to RockJ ford, 111 ., to visit a consin who had a considerable reputation as a whistler. He taught her to whistle a second to his air and finally prevailed upon htr to develop her evident talent in that direction by a long course of st‘ dy. She was divorced from Mr Shaw, whom she married in Detroit, and r aged to keep possession ot her two little daughters, who take alter their mother in being expert whistlers.— Chicago Tribune Mrs. Ftiran Stevens is perhaps a fair example of what a woman can attain who has had but small advantages in her early youth, but is suddenly smiled upon by fortune. She only needed the opportunity to develop and bloom and become a leader among the upper ten thousand. 'Those may smile who will, but Mrs. Stevens had the courage to work when the world opened befc her, and she made herself familiar with several languages. She speaks fluently French, German and Italian, and thi 9 adaptibility alone gives her entree to foreign society. She educated her sis ter, and this lady. Miss Fannie Reed, has made herself very popular in Par isian society. Mrs. Stevens has longer the fascinations that are tached to youth, and she lacks some ol the refmeraeut that coiiies from being of gentle birth, but that she has true womanly qualities and that she has lent a helping hand to many a friend in need no one will disbelieve. 'The laiest lashionable fad is to have dress, petticoat and stockings to match. The petticoat is made ol silk, with two pinked out flounees, and is two inches shorter than the dress Thig is a temp tation to vain women to wear their dresses longer than ever, necessitating their holding the skirt up ofteiier to dis play the qu-alily ot the petticoat ,—Ex In most large cities the square-cut or V-shaped bodice is the rule lor dinner toilets, although many women follow European traditions and don decoUette gown Plaids will continue to be greatly lavored.

Raised work in embroidery and lace both will be the trimming of the cora ing season. There is to be a great run ot French sateens which were never quite so pretty as they are now. They copy foulards in design and are ot such soft, exquisite finish that it is difficult to tell the difference. •'he very fashionable color is helio trope in all shades, with a reddish cast: then there are hoitensia (reddish pur ple), beige, bronze and orange, all likeiy to be much worn. Mousquetairo gloves come in all the new and beautiful shades, and the ones ivith the greatest number ol buttons sell quickest. Among the handsomest of the fans >w exhibited lo r sale a re those of natural colored ostrich feathers. It is a peculiarity of the bonnets this season that the smallest are said to be the most expensive. In men’s high and Derby hats the tendency is to flat brims.
