New York Fashions for May.

There is a distinct change in the mate
rials used for dresses since the early part
of spring. Then heavy fabrics in large
blocks, and wide stripes of black, dark
crimson, and blue, formed the prevailing
STYLES. They have given place TO the
light AOunced robes and elegant spring
goods which were then only displayed in
the windows. Even these betray the
same peculiarly of wide stripe, in con
Iaslng or graduating coIoTs, as they
show to such advantage over the hooPed
skirts.
FIounces are worn in Pompadour pat
terms, and very full black is still a tavorIte
promenade dress, with double skirt OF
three full Aounces. Sometimes the floun.
ces are embroidered with coIors, but the
most recherche are trimmed with rows Oi
guipure lace or black velvet. Nothing
can make prettler walking dress than
this style with the Byzantine manIllIa and
handsome spring straw hat, with ban
ches of flowers, fruit and dropping foliage.
