4- THE NEW AtfE, POBTLAND, OREGON. tf TRUE DAUGHTER OF CALIFORNIA. ThU One Wonted Recruits for the "United Luna Brigade." "Western gllrs nre chnrmlng," said a young man who accompanied the Presidential party on the late President McKlnlcy's Western trip, "but some times their hospitality declares Itself In disquieting ways. Out In Los Angeles I met the prettiest girl I've seen In years. We wero walking In that dream like park of the town. Westlnke, when she suddenly stopped and looked at me. Then, In that brisk way Western girls have, she said: " 'Isn't there something the matter with you?" "I didn't know whether It was my hat or my tic.. " 'I don't know,' I Bald. 'Is there?' " 'Haven't you a cough?' she asked. " 'No,' I answered, getting worried. "'Didn't you over have bronchitis, or short breath, or a stitch In your side, or pleurisy, or pneumonia, or anything like that?' she went on. "I had to 'i'cbs up that I hadn't. " 'I'm sorry,' she said, plaintively. '1 hoped you had.' "I Just gnsped and she continued: " 'For If you had, you know, you could stay out here and Join the B. L. B.' " 'What on earth Is that?' I asked. " 'Why. the "Bunted Lung Brigade." Lots of tho loveliest men belong to It. I'm bo sorry you enn'f, but land sho brightened visibly) perhaps you will be consumptive after awhile.' "That's a Western girl's way of be ing agreeable." said the young man, ac cording to the New York Times, "but It struck me as a bit ghoulish." Ho Meant the Bird. A man once received as a present from a sea captain a line specimen of tho bird known as tho "laughing Jack ass." As ho was carrying It homo ho met a brawny Irish navvy, who stopped him: "Phwnt kind of burrd Is that, sorr?" asked the man. "That's a laughing Jackass," explain ed tho owner, genially. The Irishman, thinking ho was being mado fun of, was equal to the occasion, and respouded, with a twinkle of tlio eye: "It's not yersclf It's the burrd 1 mane, sorrl" London Sparo Moments.

AND Very Pretty Garments for Warm Weather Wear Are- Described and Illustrated -Most of Them Fasten In Hack Changes In Sleeves. New York correspondence: ii H flounced or milled waist Is the most novel one of the many new fan cies In fancy wash and shirt waists. Either of these sorts In dainty and attractive, and usually Is becom ing to a slim llg ure. Both are mado In all sheer, transparent mate rials, the sleeves matching. There usually Is a yoke of lace or very transparent material outlined with an applique design of silk or lace. Bright colored and black velvet ribbon edges ninny of the flounced waists, aud consti tutes an nttrnctlve feature. Dltnlty, nainsook anil organdy waists with closely tucked surfaces are interspersed acre and there, with medallions of Irish point or cltiny laces, outlined with narrow Va lenciennes Insertion. They' button In hack and adapt themselves beautifully to the figure. There seems to be no llxed style, almost any sort Iwlng permitted so long ns It Is becoming. Waists made like snilor blouses nre fashionable and are of the finest mate rials. They usually have handsome shields and sailor collars of lace, em broidery or oppllqued material. Others $ NEWLY STYLISH AnOVE THE BELT. are laid In -side pleats all iiround, fasten a little to one side with tubs and have stitched or French knotted shields and sailor collars. The latter arc of the heav ier wash materials. Lace collars of all kinds aro worn with many waists, which gives the added finish and trimming. In sertions, hemstitching, fagottlng, appli cations ure all used on fancy bodices. Tucking, gathering and smocking nre put as much on waists as on fuuey costumes. Linens, lawns, dimities, organdies, all sheer transparent materials aud the heavier shirt wulst materials are avail able. Sleeves are striking. While many el bow sleeves are shown, loin; sleeves aro equally as fashionable. Uudersleevcs aro rather liked for the more expensive waists, and the plain jilshop sleeve with narrow cuff is a general favorite. The puff Is a trillq larger than last season; in fact, sleeves are a little' larger all around. Many bodices fasten toward the side or at the back. Hemstitching figures a great deal In many of them, sometimes each tiny tuck is caught with this trimming. Flowered dimities aud organdies arc usd for separate waists, as well as soft, fancy flowered silks. Materials beautifully em broidered In dots, llcur de Us or figures are used also. White mnterlals die abundant, batiste, being the color to he counted as second. Five pretty bodices are sketched here, and each was Interesting, yet hnrdly more so than dozens of waists any wom an can find In the shops, surely not more SILK AND LINEN SAMPLES. so if said woman has but little money, The first was white handkerchief linen, . Irish crochet, tucks, black hemstitching and silk cord fastening. The next was wblte mull, with shields of tucked mull and white point de Paris insertion and cream lace collar and cuffs. The third model was green moire finished with White hemstitching and bands of Persian embroidered wblte chiffon. Deeply pleat- ed wedgewood blue cheviot was the fab ric of the fourth waist, with finish of heavy white linen stitched in black. Last conies a pale pink organdie over white, with lace collar and cuffs and emerald green velvet belt. Hosts of such fan cies arc to he found In the stores, and some surprisingly complex garments are put under the classification "Fancy shirt waists." Black and white shepherd checked ellk Is being revived and Is shown in shirt waist suits, fancy costumes, separate waists and as trimming on handsome cloth or silk coats. The skirts usually are mnde with Spanish llouuce, or with circular flounces starting) from each side of the front breadth. They are often piped with white velvet or silk, or are finhhed with fancy silk braid. When used as trimming It Is put on in flat bands stitched down on cither side. At the left In to-day's concluding picture Is a skirt made of this material, with finish of bias folds. With It were a white organdy bodice and a coat of white eta mine over white silk, with folds of the check. It wouldn't take but a few exam ples of the grade of this one as to In genuity and tnstcfulness to 'show that this check fabric Is fully restored to styl ishness. Itcally there Is evidence a-plenty In Its behalf. Linen dresses arc made almost as elab orately as are cloth gowns, and In conse quence become suitable for almost any demand. There Is grent vnrlcty In the goods, as well as In methods of making, the weaves ranging from the coarsest to the finest, with stylish favor for plain, striped, checked and embroidered sorts. Strapping or stitching, and heiny laces or embroideries arc the usual trimmings. Many nre made with skirt and jacket, a light waist worn beneath. These are very jailnty. Mercerised linens are especially handsome and are made aud trimmed ex pensively. Many linen gowns .arc mnde with Spanish flounce lavishly trimmed with Insertion of lace or embroidery cut out to show the underskirt. Linen can vas usually Is made In this manner. Silk braid in black, white aud colors Is used for some suits and gives a very pretty finish. Blouse and eton coats are elab- orately trimmed with embroidery, bcijd or buttons. Whole gowns of besutlfully embroidered linen are for dressy occa sions. Two selections from this large linns ul Kutwin iimiu tuu ii-iucr tuiu iik"i of the last picture. One was ox-blood linen, strapped with the goods and fin ished with medallions of batiste colored Insertion. The other was delicate blue mercerized linen, tucked white muslin aud white linen bands edged with pale blue silk cording. While eluborate enough for most women, this last gown Is out done In complexity by many dreBscs from the same materials. Fashion Notes. Simplicity, not plainness, Is the fashion. Clover leaf patterns appear In a num ber of slYUs. Cold-embroidered stockings arc too fetching for words. Coarse muslins, In large and vivid de signs, should be avoided. Linen summer frocks will be beautified by flax embroideries this year. The stout woman should avoid muslins, at least those of a startling nature. A dainty black aud white boa has pink silk rose petals scattered among its frills. There Is a tendency to trim tho hips, yet at the same time to keep plain lines. and here tbe individual woman can please herself. A charming gown of blue velveteen, showered over with tiny white dots, at' tracts attention on tbe street when the wearer goes out. Mercerized chambray, which is cheap, Is excellent in ecru. All tbe linens ure fine, for they come in plain colors and are warranted to w-ah. A COLORED BENEFACTOR. Tlio largest gift which Tuekogco In stitute lias ever received from a colored man wos received recently from Robert F. Baptist, of Gnlway, 'N. II.l who sent A chock for f 1,000 to Principal Booker T. Washington to found n permanent scholarship at tho school. Baptist was formerly it slave in Virginia. BUSINESS ENTERPRISE NEEDED. Wo should improvo nlong tho lino of Negro enterprise 1 he Negro linn done well in roligion, industry and morality. Ho has demonstrated to tho world that ho Is n good soldier In tho field in tho Civil and Spanish-American wars. When the president of tho United States issued n call for volunteers, ho cheered until he was hoarse, so eager was ho to go and fight for tho nation's Hug. In tho times of danger tho Negro showed that ho was, n man. In tho various professions ho proved that ho is equal to the tasks, imposed. As a tiller of the (-oil ho has no equal. But on tho other hand, can ho show what ho lias dono as n race in business en terprise? Some ono may say, ho litis dono well. That may bo true, "aa far as it goes. But when you enter tho cities, towns and villages, do you find ae ninny enterprises controlled by tho Negro ns vou do by tho other races. You do not. Tho Nergo must hustle nlong theso linos if ho wants to competo with othor races in this respect. It is true, tho othor races liuvo had tho ndvnntngo of being free nil their days, but you hivvo boon free, too, lor 30 years, im provo your opportunities! B. F. EVANS. Minter, Alabama.

A NEGRO PRIEST. On tho Slat of Juno, in tho cathodrol of Baltimoro Ruv. J. Harry Dorsey, n member of tlio colored rnco will be ofovotod to tho holy priosthood of thu Roman Catholic church. Tho event might pass unheralded wore it not for tho fact that ho enjoys tho distinction of being tho second colored priest or dained in tho United States. Tho Rev. Mr. Dorsoy was born in Bnltlmoro, nnd received his early edu cation in tho public schools of that city. Compelled by ill health to abandon his studies, ho spout tho two following years in regaining his lost strength. At the close of this, period, Vory Rev. J. R. Slnttery became interested in young Dorsoy end sent him to St. Paul, Minn., "to study for tho priesthood under tno Most Rev. Archbishop Ire land. Ills noble qualities botli as n student nnd a youth of piety, soon won for Dorsoy tho esteem of nil with whom ho camo in contact nnd n lasting place in tlio friendship of Ills grace, the arch bishop. At tho expiration of ono year, how over, ho wr.s called home by Rev. Father Slnttery nnd entered nt Epiph any Apostolic college, an instituto established by Ruv. Father Slattery to rear priests for tho Negro mission. Graduating from thero in Juno, '03, thu young lovito matriculated at St. Joseph's seminary tlio following Sep tember. Ill health again arrested his pi ogress and ho was forced to lay aside his books in the endeavor to recuperate A lapso of four years ensued ero ho was able to rcBiimu his course. In thu In terim, ho taught school with much success in Richmond, Vn., and his native city. In September, '07, ho returned to his. unfinished studies in philosophy aud theology nt tho tomlnnry. It should bo noted that tho students of St. Joseph's seminary attend tho lec tures nt St. Mary's Sultiiciau seminary, nno of thu ablest ami most renowned seats of theological training in Amer ica.

It certainly makes all tlio difference in tho world whoso ox is gored. Wil liam Francis, of Marlon, hid., went to U homo Sunday and found two white men talking to his sister. Francis ob jected to tbulr presence and ordered them to leave. Thoy ro'used to do so., uml Francis procured a revolver, which caused them to retreat. Francis fired two shots at them, which did not take effect. Richard Criswoll, a neighbor, camo running to the K-ono nnd was shot through tho hand by Francis, Mrs. Sarah I runcls, mother of thu young man who was doing tho shoot ing, utteinpted to take thu weapon from her son and was shot in thu luft thigh, Framis made his escape ami was pursued until lato at night by tho po lice, but ho eluded them. Ho returned homo during tho night, when he was met by tho three men who had been at his home, at tho head of a mob. Ho was si-ircd, bound ami a rope placed around his neck and dragged to a near by tree and thu cud of tho rope thrown over u limb. Thu mother, who was suffering and bleeding from thu wound caused by her Kin, camo to tho rescue of her bravo boy, and by pruers and threats stood tho mob nt bay aud re leased her ton. Ho was taken to jail and when ur raigued next morning on the churgo of attempted murder pleaded guilty and was sent to tho penitentiary to prevent further trouble. "1 hi- is what happened to uu Afro American who attempted to protect his sister. Supjioso tho colors of tho par ticipants in this affair were changed, there would huvo been three Afro American men lynched and tho son and mother would huvo boon lauded to tlio skioH for their bruvery. It's a poor rulo that won't work both ways in a cato like this.
