dental mash in. The only decided now
city is hat called the dish-brim.
Wide tuned-down collars, in the By
ron style, worn low in the throat, is
the fashion for negIige and travelling
wear The English standing collar,
with turned down points in front, are
worn on the street, or for evening and
full dress. The cuff, with clipped corn
ers, are worn with these collars. These
cuffs are embroidered to match the
embroidery on the bosom for full dress.
Sometimes a delicate spray embroidery
is used on the collar also.
The latest style of gentleman's shoe
is the Oxford Tie,' and there's a serious
objection to them. That is, they will
come united at the most inoppOrtune
moment and IN the hottest weather,
when the temper is not improved by
the necessity of STOPPING down to tie
your shoe at the risk of giving yourself
a modified appolectic fit. Small slen-
der walking sticks are the mode.
Kid gloves of quiet, neutral tints are
the only gloves to be worn by gentle
men on the promenade or for full dress.
The pronounce cOlOrs may be tolerated
for driving or riding. For church and
on dressy occasions, visiting and after
noon receptions, the suit worn by gen.
tlemen should consist of dark cloth
cOat-a New Market frock coat-larger
than last summer, low rolling collar and
three frog-buttons-white duck vest and
easy fitting lavender or drab pantaloons
of dOe-skin cashmere.
Grenadine, fOulard and crepe de chine
scarfs of black, smoke color, pearl gray,
lavender, mauve, and also of the more
decided colOrs, are much in vogue for
summer wear. The gTenadine scarfs
are either knOtted in sailor tie, or
worn through scarf ring. The latter
style is preferable for stOuter gentlemen.
The scarfs of silk, fOuIard and crepe de
chine are either made up with a sailor
knot, or worn narrow and tied in a small
fiat Arabian bow. The ends of these
ties are now squared, instead of being
pointed. So imperious is dame fashion
in just such little thing.
The New York papers are filled with
descriptions of the presents, the flowers,
and the dresses at the Tweed -Maginness
wedding:
The presents were a chief center of
attraction to the guests. They filled an
entire room when crowded close. There
were forty silver sets, any one of which
would have attracted crowd if placed
in jewelers. window, and one single
one contained two hundred and forty
separate pieces. Mr.. James Fisk, Jr.,
sent a frosted silver cOntrivance repre-
senting an iceberg, evidently intended
to hold ice-cream or some equally frigid
substance. The association was beauti-
fully sustained by the presence Of Arc
tic bears repOsing on the icicle handles
of the bowl and climbing up the spoons.
Singularly enough Mr.. Fisk displayed
the same taste as Superintendent KelsO,
and their offerings were exact dupli-
Gates. Among the names on the silver
were Shandley, Norton, Witthans,
CarnOchan, Maginness, and many others.
There were forty pieces Of jewelry, of
which fifteen were diamond sets. A
single one of the latter is known to have
cost S45, 900. 1t contained diamonds as
big as filberts. A cross of eleven dia-
mOnds, pea size, bore the name of Mr..
and Mrs. H. w. Genet, as donors. A
pin of sixty diamonds, representing
sickle and sheaves of wheat, was the
gift of J. H. Ingersol. Peter B. Swee-
ney's card appeared on diamond brace
lets of fabulous magnificence. Corne-
illus COrsOn gave a ring with a tiny
watch as a seal. BrOnzes, thread-lace,
Cashmere shawIs, rare pictures, every
thing that could be conceived Of which |
is rich and costly, filed the room with
spIendOr.
The trOUSseGW of the bride was su-
perb, the materials being of the finest
quality, and obtained from a leading
dry goods house. They are

models Of elegance; and the most refin-
ed taste and carte blanche was given

that the outfit should be "the richest
ever produced, and fit for a Princess"
The wedding dress was composed of
white grOs grain, with trail three and
l half yards in length, and was trimmed
With real point lace, costing nearly
1000. The front of the skirt was cut

consisted of lace, Ornamented with or
Inge flowers. The price of the material s
