^*r**mm Jr Mmt - TARGET OP A MURDERER. Narrow Escape from Death ot Senator Baker of Kansas. “One would scarcely think, to look at Senator Baker, that he had ever been the target of a would-l>e murderer, a murderer. In fact,” said a Kansas gen tleman to a group of Washington friends the other day. “A dozen years ago an unprincipled young fellow named Thurston was tried In Leavensworth on a charge of murder. Baker, then a member of tbe Leavensworth bar, defended Thurston, and, after an exciting trial, secured his acquittal. “Two years afterward Thurston quarrel with a man named Anthony, editor of a Leavensworth newspaper, because of the publication by tbe latter of an article which cast some reflec tions upon him. “They met on the main street and thurston, without any warn! ng, whipped out a gun and begau firing. Anthony escaped injury, but one of the bullets went clean through Senator Baker, who was about a rod and a half away talk ing with a friend. “Baker had been listening to a funny story. The i>oint was reached simul taneously with Thurston's firing. In a burst of laughter Baker drew his body backward. “The bullet struck the fleshy part of his left arm and passed on through the left lung. For several weeks he hover ed between life uud death. To-day lie Is apparently as well preserved as any man In the United States Senate. ♦ “As to Thurston, he was convicted of shooting with Intent to kill, and was given a long term in the Slate prison. I think he is there now.” Lons Wars. It is argued by many philosophir-l writers of the day that there never again be a long war. The facilities of modern communication, the improve ments in arms, and, above all, the mighty interests of modern commerce, forbid, in the opinion ot these writers, the possibility of such a deplorable event. Let us devoutly hope that the conclusion is just. Human passions, however, when thoroughly aroused, cannot readily be governed by the rule of pilicy. It will not do, however, to trust too much to modern civilization as a pre ventive of protracted and vindictive war. The taste cf blood tnat converts the tamed tiger into a sanguinary monster has pretty much the same effect upon the civilized and Christian man. The latter, it is true, makes his onslaughts under certain rules and regulations, and gives quarter to his prostrate and bleeding foe. But let Ihe war last long enough, and even the chivalry and mercy that should mitigate its horrors will at last be fo: * gotten. The true way to prevent war Is to make a strong war. Every over whelming blow is a mercy stroke. Ir* a short-time combat, when one party has no^hope for victory he cries enough ft'Vfl’H fflftfl 'IT^mdlviJua!, so it is with aggregates of men. The policy, the true Christian policy, in w r ar is to smite irresistibly and then tender the olive branch with brotherly band.—-He* York Ledger. * /;v% W ^•T>irr' Mrs. McKinley’* Namesake* * William Connor, the seventy-year- old father of a Maryland baby, w anted to name the little one after the wife of the President, but he did not know Mrs. McKinley’s name. So he wrote to the President for the desired in formation. Here is the answer he got: “Mrs. McKinley has instructed me to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of recent date, and convey to you her appreciation of the compliment paid her in the selection of a name for your daughter. She trusts that the fnture may have in store for tbe little girl much happiness and prosperity. Mrs. McKinley’s fall name is Ida Saxton McKinley.” OilU Handle* on the Men- Parasol*. The parasols of this year are all fantasias on the stripe motif. In some the stripes are wide and each succes sive stripe is of a deeper shade of the same color. These, in radiant hues of the new hyacinth bine, poplar green, poppy red and rich orange, with brilliant bows of satin ribbon on the handles, are a truly pleasing fore taste of the spring. Some in black and white, lined and varied by other colors are also very pretty. One has a wide black stripe with narrow yellow and blue ones on either side and a big bine satin bow on the handle; and another, of white silk, has inch-wide yellow stripes on either side, a wider black one and a big yellow satin bow on the handle. Blacl^ and white ones, with full, fluffy linings of chiffon, in pink, heliotrope and lemon yellow'" chiffon with bows to match the linings on the handle, are also very charming, and one of pink and white checked silk lined with Ipink chiffon and having a frill of yellow lace inside the edge is really exquisite. In handles, perhaps the newest are round gold balls set with turquoises. White or green horn rabbits, with stiff outstanding gold cars, also form convenient handles, for you have the ears to hold on to. A brown eagle with outspread wings skillfully carved in wood is another device. Square knobs of rosebud patterned Dresden china have an Arcadian grace all their own; whilst a classic head carved in tortoise-shell seems quite too beauti ful to conceal in the hollow of one’s hand.—St. James Gazette. Tbe Fassio§ of tbe Mosquito? “The mosquito must go. Science is on his trail, and has found a method calucuiated to exterminate him and his tribe for aye and aye. At the next session of the State Legislature a well known St. Louis physician says he will introduce a bill providing for the ap pointment of a mosquito commission er. It shall be the duty of that official to use such methods as he may deem proper for the extermination of the pest as far as the State of Missouri is concerned. Of late it has been develop ed that whole tribes of mosquitoes can be annihilated in short order at small cost. Mosquito ridden humanity will lhail the descovery with delight, and rejoice in the advance of science to such a point that it can do away with the pests of creation. The agent which will destroy the insect in short order is nothing but permanganate of pot ash. It is claimed that one part of this substance in 1.5O0 solution dis tributed in mosquito marshes will ren der the development of the larvae im possible; that a handful of perman ganate will oxidize a ten-acre swamp, kill its embryo insects and keep it free from organic matter for 30 days, at a cost of only 25 cents. With care it is calculated that the whole State may be kept free from insect pests, such as mosquitoes, which develop from the larvae despositud in swamps and ponds. An efficacious method would be to scatter a few of the crys tals far apart. Scientists state that a single pinch of permanganate has killed the germs In a thousand gallon tank.”St. Louis Republican.

The gored skirt, is not by any means out of fashion; indeed, many of the dressmakers prefhr it to any other, and it is used on <11 the plain tailor ^fowna .. jfcuwMis-this season- -with five or se^en gorep, and generally in what is called a drop skirt, this mean ing that it is separate from the lining excepting at the band, where it is put in with it. The way in which it is made is very simple when once under stood. The lining is finished precisely as any dress skirt would be—with a facing and, as a rule, a baud of hair cloth, and finished with a ruffle or a piece of velveteen binding. If it is to be worn over a stiff, carefully made silk petticoat, the hair cloth is omit ted, and the ruffle is a very deep one, and accordion-pleated. The skirt of the material of which the gown is made, is somewhat wider than the lining; at the foot it is finished with a hem or a facing which is blind-stitched, and generally has ruches, braid, or flounces sewed on it. It is only fastened to the lining at the band. Of course it is best to have silk lining; but where it is not possible then a good quality of percaline or cambric can be used, and a silk facing of some depth put on flic outspjg °i the skirt; this will make it possible to wear evenwltlTa silk gown. When the material and the lining are made together they are sewn together in all the seams, and the skirt is then bound and faced. Some mate rials which stretch and pall are belter when made up in this way, particu larly when the circular skirt is used as a pattern. The gored skirts will he used in wash materials, particularly in denim, homespun and linens. When they are used for cambric they will be made narrower, and for ruffled and flounced skirts they will also' require to be cut narrower.—Harper's Bazar. Gossip. Miss Jessie E.

One of these columns had ielded enough to lower the floor which supported about a foot. Others had [ielded less. The one which showed e most distortion look as if it had en hit sideways by some heavy ob- ict when softened by heat, perhaps ling debris. “The Engineering ews” says: "The incident is most interesting for e manner in which it brings out the liability of steel as a structural ma- rial. Despite its sevtVe distortion, is column still remains in position, d from all appearances was still in ndition to carry a pretty heavy load, the same place a cast iron column iifld probably have failed intirely by ■e;iking in two. This fact of tough- was still further evidenced by a e examination of the distorted es and flanges, which, so far as Id be observed, did not show .1 sin- cra< k, though in some places they ■e bent double. Another noticeable turc was that none of the rivets had ■an twisted or sheared off by the dis- rtion, though this was sufficient to ause the edges of riveted plates to read apart between the rivets far ough for the finger to tie inserted, hile directly at the rivets the two lates were still in contact. ’—New ork Tribune.
