We had began to think that we wrenmr to see her in any oth«r costume than black silk, when lol last Saturday,on the occasion of her silver wedding, she appeared ia rich white silk with dra­ peries of white brocade, and 'rimmed with tasseled fringe. The Wfttet was low and heart shaped but filled in with tulle, and the elbow sleeve was edged with a deep frill of rich lace. Her hair (always dresssed low in smooth natural waves) wad ornamented with a beauti­ ful silver comb and a knot of white flowers, whilo her feet were incased in white slippers and her hands in long white kids. Somuchfer the dress of the wonderful lady who •'never wears anything more showy than black silk." To be sure this was an exceptional occasion, but what did she wear at the recent reception in New York? Pearl colored corded silk combined with brown velvet and garnished with blue velvet, trimmed with rows of'bright shells and point lace. Nothing, could be richer. And what did she wear at last Tuesday's New Year« receprion? Chocolate colored silk and satin, ornamented with knots of blue silk and lace ruchings. On that day her handsome purple black hall' wks dressed as usual and relieved only by a shell comb and bunch of nat­ ural flowers. The Silver Wedding en­ tertainment wr» a very enjoyable one. Mrs. Hayes motherland two-brothers were present as well as quite a number of other friends who attended the we«K^ ding of plain Rutherford Hayes and Lucy Webb, 25 years ago. The only bridesmaid, at that time, was a tlnv child, a little daught«.>r of Mr. Hayes' sister. She was at the White House on Saturday, now a beautiful young mat­ ron, Mrs. Mitchell. The clergyman who performed the marriage cereinony was also among the guests. Sunday the 30th was the actual ani- versarv of the wedding, and was cele­ brated as the christeuingday of Young Hayes. Scott Hayes suid a six weeks old daughter of Mrs. Herven a lady friend of Mrs. Hayes who was present at the wedding of the latter ar.d who is now a guest at.tlie White House) whom they ehristen«! "T.uey Hayes." Mrs. Hayes wore her wedding dress precisely as she wore it 25 years ago, save for the letting out of the seams in the waist. It is a flowered satin with ten or twelve straight breadths in the skirt which was no semblance of it train. The New Year's reception at the White House must have been very tiresome indeed to the ladies receiving especially Mrs. Hayes who could have- no moments respite fruin the hand­ shaking. Four or five hours she stood there until her arm ached to the shoul­ der and her white gloves was white no longer but literally blackened and worn Jlvith coming in cotaet w ith thousands of other hands, among which were soft and hard, gloved and bare, clean and soiled, dainty and rough. And still she smiled and had a pleasant word for tlie last but when it was over slit sank down where she stood, utterly worn out and exhausted, Among the other recei^ng costumes of the same day may be mentioned the following: One of the Misses Schurz was in black silk gnrni«hed with white velvet . the other in heavy pink silk. Mrs. Mary Clenimer Ames wore a com­ bination toilet of drab and blue silk, trimmed with flowers. Mrs Secretary MeCrary wore a blue silk embroidered ii a lighter shade of blue. Mrs. Rogers (wife of the Presidents Private Secre­ tary) wore a bronze silk under a brown Princess polanaise. Madame Mantilla, who always dresses with elaborate richness, appeared in a black velvet, embroidered in natural colored flowers with gloss silk, trimmed with blue silk plaiting8 and point lac«. Her orna­ ments were solitaire diamonds and emeralds. About SO^metnbers of the Young Men's Christians Association called en masse on "Mother Mulligan" an em­ inently pious lady over 85 years old, who is always present at the daily meetings of the Association. Prayers were ottered and praises sang, during the interview--a right pleasant New Year's episode. OLIVE. THKBOYTVUST OCT OF SCHOOL Did you ever pause and contemplate that particular and peculiar phrase of human nature developed by the anxious school boy when released from the study and discipline-- wlien "school is out," and h« is on his wav home • Ordi­ nary humanity, when released from the toils of the day is prone to seek rest and relaxation. The boy scorns all such efleminate ideas. H« is eomposed of but three parts--legs, arms, and yeJl. and the yell is the biggest part of him. His legs and arms have been kept in irksome.compulsory quietudo all day, and must now be exercised. His voice has been seething and swelling in hiiu for hours, and now must have vent.-- As soon as he is clear of the school house steps he stops and deliberately yells a yell that is ear-splitting, but1 which has no more object, meaning or direction than the midnight vocifera­ tion of a mule; and yet it appears at a full run, with his arms flying about like the scintillations of a pin-wheel. He is no respector of persons, and is utterly indifferent as to whether he runs down a smaller boy, spins an aged citizen three times around, or mashes a girl's hat over her eyes in his headlong ca­ reer. "Mercy on us! If that boy were only m!ne. I'd--but just then her only boy fli«>8 past, falls over a dry-goods box, bounces up,"kicks at another boy. ami is chased across the street and areund the corner before she can get the "You Robert!" with which she In­ tends to annihilate him, out of her j^tonished throat. There is but one -thing that has the slightest effect on the boy when he is on the way hq.iie from school. He can see the old man farther than Prof. Hall can see a hay­ stack with a telescope, and the moment that parent dawns upon his vision he becomes as proper as a model Letter- writer, and the neatly modulated voice with which he wheedles the author of his being out of flyo cents on the spot is a lesson for future aiubi tions savings bank and passenger rail way presidents. The amount of rac­ ing, jumping, pulling and hauling and howling that a schoolboy can concen­ trate into a transit of two squares is postively astonishing, and the preternatural coolness and the quie­ tude with which he takes his red face and panting breath iuto the kitchen and asks if supper ain't most ready is a human conundrum that calls for un qualified Admiration.

The Peoria Call having covered the caae exactly, we quote for the benefit of this region: "Settling up" time has come around again. During the next two weeks everybody who owes an account must expect to bo asked to pay It. The merchants Who have accounts In the city will be expected to pay up now, either by paying the cash or giving notes at short time for the balance due, aud any failure to do one or tlie other would bring to them speedy dis­ aster. Many of them are looking for­ ward with extreme enxiety. If they can cellect what is due them they can pay what they owe. If not, trouble will result. Some of there are carry­ ing thousands of dollars en their books, which money if paid in now would lighten up their load and make it easy enough for them to enter on the Hew year in good shape and with bright prospects for the future. A failure to collect will cause them serious annoy-' ance, distress and,.possibly In some ea­ ses, ruin. If you who read this have been gran­ ted accommodations by business men and owe thetn for goods purchased or work done, show your appreciation of the favor now by paying up promptly. Pay every hill that is presented if it is possible to do so, and don't put It off till "next week'* or "next month.,' with the money in your pocket. These are tight times. The best way iu the world to loosen them Is for each Indi­ vidual to pay his own bUls. The mis­ chief of a neglect to do so is, that to withhold money in one case withholds It in another, and so through a Jong line. When one street-car is stopped by an obstruction on the track, all the other cars behind it are stopped too. It is precisely so with ah unpaid debt, and don't neglect a bill because 11 Is small. The sum may look Insignificant to ybu, but remember the man you owe it too m<iy have hundreds just like It. aud in the aggregate they may eith­ er make or break him. The payment of yours will at any rate help him just sn much, and you should give him the money cheerfully and promptly. And just] here is a point deserving of spe cial attention; the matter of paying cheerfully and promptly. Theie are men who invariably get mad when a bill Is presented to them. They will let fn account run for months without thinkiug it necessary to even n>ake any explanations as to why they do so, and then when they are some d iv asked to pay It. go into a violent passion and very likely make this an excuse for de­ ferring the payment another month or two. Such scoundrels ought to be •spotted" by business men and prompt­ ly kicked out of any store in which they seek credit. Stub men are by no means rare. Every business man can mention at least a dozen of them. The fact Is, people who buy on credit ought not to wait to be dunned. They ought to pay up at the earliest moment they can. without putting the mer­ chant to the trouble of going after ids money: but if they can't do this they ought to at least have decency enough to treat the collector politely when lie comcs with the hill."

P. D. SMITIJ. Near the Depot. 9©~A California paper describes "the latest thing out" as a new horse­ shoe made out of three thicknesses of rawhide, compressed together with heavy pressure. It is said to last long­ er, weighs only one-fourth as much as the common shoes, never splits the hoof, and has n© bad influence on the foot. It is so elastic that the horse's step Is never uncertain. This will re­ mind the farmers who drove cattle and horses across the plains in early days of the fact, now almost forgotten, that it is no new invention, for the cattle and horses, too, were often shod with shoes made out of buffalo hide, .cut from the neck, where the skin is almost an inch thick. f@»King Kalakua said to a corres pondent of the San Francisco Chron­ icle: "The labor question of this king­ dom is of serious Import. Owing to the decrease of the native population, empoloyers have been compelled to resort to such labor markets as were open to them. If It were possible to pi ©cure Polynesian laborers, they would be welcomed by the Hawaiian people, because they are of the same race and blood as ourselves My government has been ceaselessly ac­ tive in trying to procure a congenial emigration to the kingdom, and if the success has uot been equal to the wishes, the efforts were laudable and noble* I wish my raoe to live and per­ petuate themselves. I wish to see the old native legend about the children playing along the highways practically realized. I wish to see realized the old legend about the old men and the old women rejoicing over the pride of the youn|; manhood aud the young womanhood of the nation. If fate means to bolt out of existence the Hawaiian race, I shall war against fate to the last hour. No, we must net perish." fSf Victor Emmanuel, King of Italy, died on Wednesday afternoon of ma­ larial fever. He was bo*n iu 1820, and was the heir appareht of the little kingdom of Sardinia. On the abdicat­ ion of his father he became king, and his one great object was to have Italy united, aud this he accomplished after several years' war with Austria. Iu 1870 he made Rome his capital where he has since resided. He was a great, favorite with his subjects, brave and daring on the field of battle, and withal good ruler. His son Prince Hum­ bert, now about thirty-three years old. succeeds to the throne. The death of the king scarcely produoes a ripple in European politics. THK WOKKl.NGMKN'8 ADURim Tlie President and Secretary of tiff Workingmen's party ef California,inan address to the werkingmenef the Unit* ed States, say: "Labor demands such reforms as will make an intelligent* happy and patriotic people the safe* guard of the Republic. Do not believe those who call us savages, rioters. In* cendiarles and outlaws: we seek our ends calmly, rationally, at the ballot* box." Such lauguHge is worthy ©f commendation, rs indicating a correct understanding of the law-abiding char­ acter of the American people and ft determination to proceed according!• Constitutional methods for the remedy of the evils that now afflict laboring1* men. Pursuing a course of patient but earnest and persevering effort for the permanent cure of existing, wrongs, the sympathies of the great masses who make and unmake laws will surely be awakened into activity, and with a strong and wholesome public opinion snce created in favor or the movement t'ie victory wili not long be delayed,*-- The rapacity of capital can be checked in this way without a shock to the body politic. It is the honorable, the dignified way of porceediug; and what is more entitled to be called dignified than honest industry ? It Is true that an honest laboring man is the noblest work of God. He is the creator of all values--the foundation of all govern­ ments. Let. our. friends of .the WoA* Ingmen's Part? bear this ever in mind, and remember, also, that patience ai> complishes wonders. To be an industri­ ous, law-abiding American cltlaen should be an honor--a badge of real nobility. And It will be, if those who have the opportunity of c&aductlug the deliberation of the laboring classes do not betray theu iuto indfetfgfi&.aad unlawful acts. HORSE BLANKETS! You can buy a five tb Blanket for #1.50 per pair at Fitzsimmous & Evasion's Near the Depet. The Washington Republican of last Tuesday has a leading article on the silver question In which occur these sentences: 4,We now state, up- what we regard as high authority that the Executive will sign the silver bill whatever It shall bo submitted to him. He believes it to be a measure demanded by the business Interests of the country and a majority of the United States, and hence will cheer­ fully give it his official sanction." If this is true, we may cnflodenily expect that the silver bill will become a law in two or three weeks. Even in case of a veto, we believe it will become a law inside of thiity days. fySul," eried a girl, looking out of the upper wlndew of a small gro­ cery and addressing another girl who was trying to enter at the front door, "we've * ali been to camp meet In' and got converted; so when you want milk on Sunday you'll.have to come round to the back door."
