Y. PERSONALITIES, Congressman Loud of California was a New England boy and began his ca- reer by running away to sea. Lord Salisbury is one of the bes: Cerman scholars in England. Teutonic literature has been his hobby for years. and ho is especially interested in the various German dialects. Mr, Gully, K. C., the speaker of the house of commons, went to Cambridge when he was only seventeen years of ago. He was the youngest undergradu- ate of his time in the university. Captain Richmond Pearson Hobson, the Merrimac hero, will be the best man fit the wedding this fall of Captain Thomas Francis Lyons of the marine corps to Miss Evans at Lockport, NX. Y. Baron Ampthill, the governor of Ma- dras, is but thirty-one years of age and entered public life as private secretary to Joseph Chamberlain, He is also not- ed for his good looks and his athletic prowess, * Queen Wilhelmina is an excellent lin- gulst, for besides hor knowledge of Ma-] lay she speaks French, Gorman and} English as fluently as hor native Dutch, and she knows something of Italian; Professor Salomon Jadassohn, the | well known composer and teacher of the theory of music, has Just celebrated | his seventieth birthday. Ee has been; an instructor at the Leipsic Consorvya- tory of Music since 1871. ' Major General Pole-Carew having declined the post, Major General Hild- yard is now spoken of as commander in chicf of the army in Australia. Like | Sir Evelyn Wood,.

White promises to continue popular throughout the fall and winter. Birds and breasts of every kind will be seen on the fall and winter hats. , How are reversible skirts in, silk. black for one side and a black and white plaid for the other? The eco- nomical woman has two silk skirts in one. ' Many flannel blouses are made with a band of embroidery across the bust, there being a tucked yoke above and tucks to gather the fullness into the waist. Very charming is a black and white boa, soft and light, made of black dotted white veiling with loops and ends of the new 'black velvet faced with white. Stylish stocks are made with bandan- pa edged plain silks. There is the stock of the material with ends sloping: down from the back and tying in frort in a four-in-hand. A brown velveteen coat is made plain and straight with a deep frill of lace on the edge of the sailor collar and another narrower frill on the edge of the turnback cuffs. White alpaca of fine quality is ex- cellent for petticoats of the much frill- ed variety. 'The material launders well and makes an acceptable change from silk and muslin -New York 'Times. A Friend's Bequests. Under the will of Thomas Eilkinton, late of Philadelphia, a well known member of the Society of Friends, more than $100,000 is bequeathed to charity, some of the bequests not becoming op- erative until after the death of his wid- ow. Five hospitals in Philadelphia re- celve $5,000, the remainder of the pub- He bequest being divided between Quak- er schools and charitable organizations. New Italinn Submarine Boat. A new Italian submarine vessel, the Delfino, has proved very satisfactory. It is provided with an instrument which permits a submarine vessel nav- igating below the surface to have a view of the whole horizon while it is under water. It is called a cleptoscope and was invented by two Italian en-; gineers. Is it a burn? Use Dr. Thomas' Eclectrie Oil A cut?
