CEDARVILtR ' i' : CLOSE TO DEATH., OHIO. a n d WOMEN IN WHITE. niKhlOD Decree* That BnoWjr Kalmeut Sli&ll Be Worn—Shoe*, Glove* and PM*- In former seasons white has been lit* tic seen upon the streets. Women wishing to wear it have done so only lor carriage use or for short expedi­ tions in the quieter streets. I t has been almost seen not a t a ll oh shopping tours or of a morning on the fashion­ able walks. But this season the best modistes say that white will he wum as never before. All the spring light gray has been seen, and. the sliade haif grown lighter as the season. has 'ad-; vanced until now some of the gray costumes appear almost white. This gradual leading up to white will, make it less startling to.the public gaze when it makes its appearance in the fnll glowing of its spotlessnesa, which the modistes declare it is bound to do later on. At many of the fashionable spring openings white ladies’ cloth dresses .were seen, made for the !street* com­ bined with a little purple, sagegreon; ecru or black... This s^mafrhat.brolte the startling effect th a t an atf white cloth dress is bound to present Very natty atid, very stylish dresses are shown' entirely of white*. ta ilo r ^ |der goods."

With jthis gown would be wbfn white gloVeSj'wMte’Can­ vas shoes, trimmed with white leather, a white parasol, white card case or portemonnate, and a white h a t The white hat is a question of choice. To many white above the face is so tunbe- obiriiiSg thtit they prefer th a t th e bat it­ self shall be blade, with possibly white pompons or white trimmings. This is fairly a fashion of choice. Pretty shoes are the rage this year. Every woman of fashion, even though she makes no pretension to be outre fashionable, has as many different Bhqcs as she has gowns. And with some dresses that are made of a combination of various kinds o f goods she has three or four pairs of shoes to make as pleas­ ing and as changeable In appearance as possible. Suede ia seen in aa-great a. variety of colors as ever, and is also worn combined with satin and cloth to match the costume with which the shoes arc to bo worn. Another way of sectoring a variety in shoes is- by wearing different color gaiter-tops with them. These gaiter- tops are worn .over low shoes which come this season .with heavier soles titan formerly. Women ,who could not 'wear low shoes upon the pavements when they were provided with paper . soles are now enabled to have these comfortable articles and to be able to secure by them the variety which they seek. Gaiter-tops comp in every possi­ ble shade, and if the color desired is -not in stock $2 will secure a pair ex­ actly the shade that one wishes. Parasols are more for ornament than for use. The tops of many are pagoda’ shape and the edge deeply trimmed with a flounco of lace. Tim foundation of the parasol is often of the filmioBt lace, (minted upon one of the panels; and in no way lined to afford protec­ tion from the sun’s raya With these parasols there is worn a broad*, brimmed ha t which is itself often so filmy in toxture th a t it is scarcely more than a lace network support­ ed upon a wire frame. With these somewhat diaphanous head coverings the woman of fashion ventures forth nacler the rays of the sunshine with no other protection for her head than the coiffure, which is this season very elaborate, heavy, and complicated, Gloves are in sympathy with the rest of the toilet of a combination of two ox* throe colors of kid or even fine silk. Gloves displayed upon a form ontaida of a Broadway window were of black kid with silk tops and white gauze between . the fingers. Heavy white stitching |*focd the silk band with the kid Uppers.

Catering to this demand the most elegant dealers have provided a pair of silk garters , clasped with appropriate buckles to be sold with each pair of stockings. The general material of the garter is elastic, then comes a ribbon bow, and' then there Is a clasp, sometimes all metal, and again studded with jewels.

A. southern correspondent sends a story of war-time .' In some parts of the south, and especially in North Carolina, the horrors c f war were greatly aggra­ vated by the strife between Irregular organizations of union and confederate sympathizers, known respectively as "Buffaloes” and "Guerillas.'1 Both or­ ganizations were composed of lawless men, and no ultimate good appears to have been accomplished by them, either for the north or for the sonth. After Gen,-Burnside's capture of Bon-, noke Island and Elizabeth City, things, began to grow vsfy uncom fo rt*^ for the buffaloes, who had made thertselvcs obnoxidu# to tjrtle neighbors by many -deeds of mischief. Qne of their ac­ knowledged leaders put his family into a buggy, and set out for Elisabeth City. On the way he was met . hy.a band of guerillas, who called upon him to sur­ render. He knew that he could hope. fop. no mercy if he gave himself up, and think­ ing that they might not fire upon his’ .Wife and .children, he urged his horse forward, at. the same tlmehotd&g'his infant chil# in front of ’himllfSj as >a. ..shield." But,the ordei^tn fire ffafiffiven, and"hefellbadk d«ad,a volley ofimllftta having reached him through' the body of his child. The hcWrible deed roused intense, iz;- dignation, ofeourse, andvengeance wajs threatened. Unhappily suspicion fas­ tened upon the wrong man, and he was marked for destruction. .'News reached hum upon Jb& farm" that the.Buffalpes were in pursuit of his head, and h e ’ar­ ranged with bis wife a code of signals, for his protection. ’ . 4 Again and again, by day and, by night,., his house was searched, but without success. Many times lie watched the searching parties as they withdrew, disappointed, frpn>’the premises. One day he had a peculiarly narrow escape.- A band of armed men were seen ap­ proaching- Evidently they were after him again. He hastened from the house into the field, thinking himself unseen; but his. pursuers had caught sight of him, and a t once started in pursuit.. There was no time to reach the woods, and in his extremity he crawled into a log which lay near the entrance to the field. \ 1 Hardly was he inside when his ene­ mies swarmed into the field. “Where is he?” "Where is he?” he heard one and another ask. "We saw him run. this way, and he hasn’t had time to cross the field. He is hiding here some­ where, and we have him at last. Some kept watch,and the rest search­ ed the field. After a while all hands came together about the log, and some of them sat down upon i t One would, shoot Aim ut sight; another wanted to hang him, to a tree and riddle him with bullets. No' one. Suggested a trial, or the possibility of his innocence. The prisoner was almost afraid to breathe*. Another search was made; and hid agony’of suspense continued. In h is ,distress he prayed earnestly for protection. No one thought to look inte.thc log, and late In the afternoon the adund Of the hell notified him that tho coast was clear, and he might re -' turn to the bouse. Many years have passed.

Tk* Thrilling Bight Which Che*red the Drooping Soldiers’ Heart*. One who hah fought on many a bat­ tle-field writes the following thrilling description of tho work of a battery of six guns: Did you ever see a battery take posi­ tion? I t hasn’t the thrill of a cavalry charge, nor the grimneaa of a line of bayonets moving slowly and deter­ minedly on, hu t there is a peculiar ex­ citement about it th a t makes old vet­ erans rise in their saddles and cheer. We have been fighting a t the edge of the woods. Every cartridge box has bean emptied once or more, and one- fourth of the brigade has melted away i s dead and wounded and missing. Not a cheer is heard in the whole brigade. We know th a t we are being driven foot by foot; andAhat when we break once more the line will go to pieces, and the enemy will pour through the gap. Here comes help! Down the crowded highway gallops * battery, withdrawn from some other position to save oura The field fence is scattered while you could count thir­ ty, and the guns rush for the hill behind us, 8ix horses to a piece—three riders to each gun. Over dry ditches where H farmer could not drive a Whgon,through clumps of huBlies, over logs afoot thick, every horse on the gallop, every rider lashing his team and yelling—the Sight behind us makes ns forget the foe in front, The guns jump two feet high as the heavy wheels strike rock or log, hu t not a horse slackens his pace,' nor a Can­ noneer loses his sea t Six guns, six cais­ sons, sixty liorsos, eighty men race to r the brow of the hill asif lie who reached It first would be knighted, A moment ago the battery was a con­ fused mob. We look again and the #ix guns are in position, the detached horses hurrying away, the ammunition ch«|ts open, and along our line runs the com­ mand: “Give them one more volley and fall Back to support the gunk," We have scarcely obeyed when boom! boom! opens tne battery, and jets of fire jump down and scorch the green trees 'under Which we fought and despaired- The shattered old brigade has a chance to breathe for the first time in three hours as we formed a line and He down. What grim, cool fellows those cannoneers are. Every man is a per­ fect machine. BnUets splash dust in their faces, but they do not winca. Bul­ lets sing over and around, they do not dodge. There goes one to the earth, shot through the bead as he sponged his gun. That machinery loses just one beat, misses just one cog in the wheel, and then works away again as before. 0 Every gun is w ing a short-fuse shell. The ground shakes and trembles, the roar shuts out a ll sounds from a Hoe throe miles long.ymd the shelly: go shrieking into the swamp to cut teeea short off, to mow groat gaps i n ’dffifc bushes, to hunt out and shatter *|*ff mangle men until their corpse can not ’be recognized as human. You would th ink a tornado was hbwHng through theforest,' followed by billows ofdire;,: and yet men live through it—aye, press forward to capture the battery* We can hear their shouts as they form for* the rush.' Now the shells are changed for grape anfi canister, and gunx are fired so4pst :thai»ll reporta bJend into .bun mighty rout. -, The shriek of a ‘shell if, the wick­ edestsound in ynur, but nothing, makes tbe flesh crawl like the demonical sing­ ing, purring whistling grape-sliot, and ih e ’Seppent-Hke hiss of canister. Men's! legs and heads are torn from bodiefl and bddies Cut in two. ■ Around .shotebr< shell takes two men out of the rank as it crashes through. Grape and canister mow m awath dud pile the dead on top of each other. u Through the smoke we see a swarm p i men, rI t is not. a battle-line,..but* ipob of men desperate chough to bathe their bayonets in the flaiue of the guns. The guns lefcp from the ground, almost, as they "Are depressed on the foe, slid shrieks and screams.and shouts blend Into one awful and steady cry. Twenty- men out of the battery are down, and the firing is interrupted. The foe ac­ cept it as a sign of wavering and come rushing.on. They are not ten feet away when the gutis give them a last shot. That discharge picks' living men off their feet and throws them into the swamp, a blackened bloody mass. Hp, now, as the enemy are amongthe gnus! There is a silence of ten sec­ onds, and then the flash of more than 8,000 muskets and a rush forward with bayonets. For what? Neither on the right nor left nor in front of us is a liv­ ing foe! There are corpses around us which liave been struck by three, four and even . six bullets, and nowhere on this acre of ground is a wounded man. The wheels of the gun can hot move until the blockade of dead ia removed. Men can not pass from caisson to gun without climbing ■over windrows •of dead.

Burial parties saw murder where his­ torians saw glory.—National Tribune, FIRST CONFEDERATE GUN. AValuable (tillo Owned by a Chattanooga (Tenn.) Woman. The first gun made for the Confeder­ ate government is owned by Mrs. H. L M illerofthisdty. The gun wasmade by Mrs Miller's father, W. S. McElwaine, at Holly Springs,Miss.,in the summer of 1801. I t was carried through a port of tho war by a young man of Holly Springs, a friend of Mr. McElwaine, I t hod a rifled barrel originally. About the middle of the war the barrel was injured by a baU, and tbe gun was re­ turned to Mr. McElwaine, who ent it off a t the injured point and bored it for a shotgun. As seen by a Globe-Demo­ crat reporter lately, it was in compara­ tively good condition. Mr. McElwaine was a native of Pitts­ field, Maas., where he learned the trade of a machinist. Afterward he worked In a gun factory in New York, and then moved to Sa&dusky, O., where he en­ gaged in the foundry and machine busi­ ness. In 1859 he moved to Mississippi, In a crude way he began the foundry business, with two partners. When the war broke out the company had a well- equipped establishment, and Jefferson Davis, being conversant with the prop­ erty, induced its owners to convert it into an armory. Small arms were bad­ ly needed and Mr. McElwaine having neither the machines nor patterns, went to Work to produce them, lie planned and made the necessary machinery lor making stocks, barrels and borings, working out the patterns, and with his own hand made the first gun which his daughter now preserves. When the battle of Shiloh was fought In 1802 thd plant, was turning out twen­ ty-five stands of arms a day and em­ ployed five hundred hands. The armo­ ry Was afterwafds sold to the Confeder­ ate govemtnetit for oUe hundred and fifty thousand dollars ih addition to the sixty thousand dollars paid for arms up to that thnfe. The plant was removed to Mason; Ga. After the evacuation of Corinth' and vicinity by the Confeder­ ates, a raid Was made and the building of Holly Spring* alst fire to and destroy­ ed. After adbventfttl career the maker .pi the first gun of ,lhe Confederacy died ib Chattanooga in 1873. -.

The SuppositionThat Worn m Arm A•hoot- ad of Bator ingopwritaut UtterlyGroiw*- le**. A correspondent o f the Now York World, writing in opposition to a cos­ tume for business women, said In effept that it never would be made popular.

But' they do not always make use of " their opportunities with the promptness thai would betoken their eagerness fio re­ nounce.,their individual right, to life, liberty, and the pursuit of ’happiness.

Qn the contrary, all that they desired was given ungrudgingly,- gener­ ously, and gladly, TU#daughter and sister were made to feel that all that was .bestowed wail not a ’gift, bu t theirs of right. Still there remained the quenchless desire to be up and doing for themselves. The busy brain, the skilled hahd, the ’restless energy de­ manded some natural and healthful em­ ployment, for which, the few simple duties about the house.dld not suffice. There is in Chicago a brilliant, beau­ tiful and accomplished-young woman. While jihe was yet a child her father died and left her, with her mother, a charge to her two brothers. She fin­ ished her education add then, being healthy and vigorous, she began to con- aider the situation. “ I made up mymind,” she,said, “that being as strong and quite hs capable as my brothers, that there was no- reason why they should take care of me. I wanted the privUege of taking care of myself.” Without consulting them, she took a course a t a business college, and be­ fore they had the slightest inkling of what she was doing she graduated and established herself in business. To-day she Is an expert court reporter and a regularly qualified notary public. She has her own pleasant office in one o f the best business blocks in the city, She has her corps of clerks, and has more business than she Can attend to. She has a charming little home on ohe of the boulevards, where she lives with her mother. She dresses well, lives well, and, without practicing any spec­ ial economy, will save this, her first year in business on her own account, over 41,000. There ate few men udder similar circumstances who could have done better. If there is anything"in her manner tha t shows regret tha t she did hot remain in her brother’s charge, ith a s not been apparent to her friends. One other example may 1>& seen—in this instance a widow. Slib now holds a responsible official position in one of the western states. Her husband w*S a gallant soldier and died shortly after the" close of the war, leaving her with a lfcrgc farm on her hands, Not ’oftly did he leave the farm but he left ,a mort­ gage of 820,000 on the farm. Her friends sahl to her: "YOU Will have to marry or sell the farm.'’ She replied; "I will do neither," ami she kept her word. She raised the mortgage, improved the Csfale, and is a recognized power in 'the agricnltoral council* of the state, , She did more, than this: Having no children ofherowiB, the adopted three, and hi bridging them up with aB the care and fidelity of * .modelmother.

Women are human beings, and the very happiest and most con­ tented women in this country to-day are those who have this opportunity.
