Tucks’ are particularly effective on these waists; a dainty blouse recently seen of fine cream batiste, tucked, and worn over a slip of pale pink silk formed a very lovely model for wear with a white pique or woolen skirt. The sleeves were the regulation shirt waist medel. A stock of pink silk with an accordeon pleated bow under the chin gave a pretty finish. Silk waists are much worn at this season. Taffeta is too warm, but many charming styles are of China silk fashioned in the same way as the cotton ones with the exception that the box pleat in the front is more elabor- ately trimmed. Flowers in Abundance. For those who are tired of violets, even of the best Parisian manufacture, are provided pretty wreaths and bunch- es of purple-blue_iris, hyacinths, rag- ged-sailor blooms, periwinkies, white and lilac stocks, pri-mulas,fiand Scottish blue-bells.- Primulasof French make look very'pretty in artificial form,- and the foliage is decorative.‘ Sprays "of shaded nasturtium blossoms in velvet l are very 'often'seen on French hats and ' bonnets,’ the flowers as a rule veiled with-brown, green, or black tulle. A harmony in green and white for a summer hat is charming—only very delicate foliage being employed, such as maiden-hair fern, shamrock, clover leaves, creeping-Charlie in-shaded vel- vet’ and tulle for "the green portions, and lilac sprays, silk choux, rosebuds, mountain daisies, ostrich plumes, deg- blossoms, and hawthorn for the white garnitures.

New York City. l noooro A TAX. The Annual Meeting of the Over River School District. ,Diiicers Elected and Other Business Transacted. The annual meeting of the Over River School district was held last evening. There were about fifty residents of the district present, and the meeting lasted for less than an hour, the most important feature in the call, the lay- ing of a tax, receiving no attention other than its reading by the clerk. The reports as read showed that the district was in debt to a consider- able amount, and suggested the laying of a tax to liquidate at least a portion of the same. The chair appointed Messrs. Lynes and Hanford as tellers in the election of a successor to committeeman Tris- tram, for three years, his time- having expired. Two ballots were taken resulting as follows: ' First Ballot: Charles F. Tristram, 26 Henry Chasmer, 21 Samuel Lynes, 5 Scattering, 1 N 0 choice having been made another ballot was taken resulting in the selection of Mr. Tristram by the fol- lowing vote: Charles F. Tristram, 32 Henry Chasmar, 26 Alfred E. Amtin was elected to suc- ceed himself as clerk. The'next business in order was the election of a treasurer. Mr. Henry Price would have received a unanimous re-eleCtion to the offiCe, which he has satisfactorily and creditably filled for about seventeen years, but he positive- ly declined. ‘ Messrs. Henry Chasmer, Victor Selleck, C. E. Curtis, D. W. Fitch and Samuel Weed also declined a nomina- tion. A ballot was then taken resulting as follows: W. E. Montgomery, 18 F. S. Ambler, 15 Henry Chasmer, 10 Scattering, 3 The second ballot resulted in the election of M. Montgomery the vote being: W. E. Montgomery, 29 F. S. Ambler, 19 George Raymond, 7 The vote for collector was : J abez Wheater. 29 C. E. Curtis 21 James Sutherland, 3 Messrs. Samuel Lynes and Frank 1. Jones were elected auditors. A motion to adjourn was lost, and later carried, and the most important item in the call, :the laying of a tax, was lost sight. of. ' This, however, will probably receive attention at a special meeting to be held later. ————<o.o>———— The Steamboat. The GAZETTE is in receipt of a. notice from Mr. George H.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con- dition of the mucous lining of the ,Justachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. ‘ and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition. hearing will be de- stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is noth- ing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. “70 will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by ca- tarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.

How to Fill It Out— Bonds Already at arms mlum. New York, June 16.—At 10 a. m. yes- a. few ladies 'had formed in front of the sub-treasury on Wall street. At that «hour the doors were thrown open and the applicants for blanks applied at the first window on the right hand side of the corridor. There were two piles of blanks, one of applications for sums of $500 or less, and the other for sums of more than 3500. Of the latter sort, which were most in demand by corporations, only one was given out yesterday to each applicant. or the former several were allowed to the in- dividual applicant upon \his nepresenta- tion that they were meant to be used by friend: or relatives. The whole de- sign of the distribution was evidently to give the humble individual subscrib- er the preference, and to let the corpo- rations wait. Form of Application.

Madrid, June 16.—A dispatch receiv- eduhere from Captain General Augus'ti, dated Manila, June I3, says: “The situation continues critical. The enemy surround the town. I have had our lines drawn closer around the city and strengthened at, intervals by tren- ches. Communication is still cut. I expect General Monet with reinforce- ments, but I ‘have no new-s from him. . “The white population of the sub— urbs, fearing they will be massacred by the rebels, and preferring the risk of bombardment, have entered the for- tified part of the town and will assist in its defence. I do not know when the bombardment will begin.” _-.~——. The Situation at Havana. Key West, June 16.—Private advices from Havana state that matters are as satisfactory there as can be expected under existing circumstances. Little, if any business is transacted, every avail- able man being at work on fortifica- tions. Produce is being brought into the cit:r from one hundred miles west of Havana. Exchange for Hobson.

The Enemy’s g Forces ' Routed in Norwalk. are As flee the enemy’s ships before the armored squadrons of Uncle Sam, so are retreating useless remedies for catarrh before the steadv success of California Catarrh Cure'. The best arguments are facts, and facts accom- plished cannot be doubted. Facts ac- complished have convinced Norwalk people. Other remedies may be pleas- ant. but as a well-known physician lately said: “To waste time on useless remedies is dangerous, for in the treat- ment of all diseases time is everything.” And that California Catarrh Cure works surely and swiftly; that its suc- cess is not approached by any other remedy ever compounded, is proved by such cases as this: Mrs. John Lycett, 21 High street. Norwalk, says: “My daughter Violet has been troubled since childhood with catarrh, unt11 her whole head seemed more or less diseased. She had begun to_be a little deaf, and suffered much With severe headaches, so that we had to keep.her out of school a good deal. I sent her to Plaisted’s drug store, South Norwalk, after a bottle of Cali- fornia Catarrh Cure and she com- menced using it. Its beneficial effects have been simply wonderful. It has helped her from the first in every way. I have not heard her complain of a headache for a long time, and by the time she has finished her first bottle I feel confident that she will be cured.” To avoid Hay Fever, begin using California Catarrh Cure now, and keep it up till the season of the attack has passed. It absolutely prevents cases of hay fever and its kindred dis eases. influenza, “grip” and stuffed and smarting nasal passages. For the latter nothing affords such grateful relief as California Catarrh Cure. All dealers. 50 cents; three times as much, one dollar. A Conclu‘sfie Argument. One was a slight, beautiful woman of middle age, faultlessly dressed and speaking in a voice whose every in- tonation betrayed culture, relates the New York Tribune. The other was a brusque, jolly looking young creature in a chic business suit, and the two were arguing warmly. . “Yes, I attend the life class, and I believe it is all right! must, if I want to become an artist,’."said the younger woman. , , But you, a Christian,” remonstrated the older woman, severely. “Yes, and you," cried the artist, “who reproach me’, have a, painting of the , Christ ln‘your drawing room that you could nothave if the human form was not studied by artists and sculptors.” The conversation ended abruptly. Small Tommy was very fond of sandy, and asked: “Momma, can God make anything he wants to?” “Of course hecan,” m the reply. “Well," exclaimed the littlevfeliow, “I'd just like to see him make a stick of candy with only one end to “BL-Memphis Scimital. “Mac, I hear ye have fallen in love wi bonny Katie Stayens?" “Weel, Sandy, I was near—veerra ne'ar—daein’ it; but the lassie had nae siller, so I said to mysel’, ‘Mtw, be a mon.’AndeasamonamdnooIpasa herby wi’ silent contempt.”—-Inndon Tit-Bill.
