BY HOMER GLITTER.

Shout out the news! Go tell the tale
That IN flashing DER the wire!
No more wen hear the poor mans wall,
For the robbers reign expires.
For eight long years beneath their sway
We've lived, the stateslnan's scorn;
But glorious now will be our way,
For Tilden's star is born.
Old men who YESTERDAY were bent
And to.ering to the grave
To-day raise up, az il 'twere sent,
That star their life to save.
The stron, Of limb, the country's pride,
Who were grooming meath their load,
See how to-day they smoothly glide
Free from expressions goad.
The South, ah! what a day for her
Is this, that sets her free!
Few in her borders will dcmur
To our national jubilee,
In our cycle of a hundred years
There were rage and storm and gore;
Forgot to-day we all our tears
We're one, thank God, once more.

President briefly replied, assuring him
of his satisfaction in receiving this evi-
dence Of good feeling on tie part of
His Majesty, that his kind expressions
for the United States Were fully appre-
ciated, and that the letter should be
properly acknowledged. A translation
of the letter is as follows:

EARLY yesterday morning a car on
the Cass avenue route encountered Il
milk wagon driven by woman about
forty years old, and the driver shouted
and motioned for her to turn out. She
refused to leave the track, and car and
wagon came to Il halt.
"Why don't you get off the track !:
shouted the car driver as he put on the
brake.

He left his car to lead her horse
off the track, but she had long whip
and she kept him off He got behind
her wagon to lift it off, but the whip
cracked about his ears again.
"Will you get off the track? he
demanded.
"When you apologize I will.
He was in fix. His car was full,
and the milk-woman was stout ana
full of grit, and he determined to
come down. He said he begged her

Late Fashion Notes.

The coolest possible dress for deep
mourning is either barege or black
worsted mot silk grenadine, trimmed
with Grape.
1t is better taste to wear perfectly
plain black silk for the first month aft
er leaving off Grape, when lace will be
appropriate.
Solid colors, unbleached and white
stockings for ladies.
Very broad leather or velvet belts,
with silver-plated and nickel buckles,
continue to find favor.
Fringes are brought out in hand
some patterns, and are more popular
than ever.
Cream shades find favor in wash
dresses, as in everything else.
The newest dust cloaks are of silk
and alpaca in the form of listers.
They are showerproof. Some have
jelly-bag hoods. Others are of the
round form, or have capes forming
sleeves.
According to Paris papers, the Ok
ford laced shoes in French kid are
worn indoors and out.
Hats, as rule, are altogether larger.
Shoes with the so-called Wurtem-
burg heels, cut in one piece with the
sole, and wider and higher under the
foot, are much worn just now in Paris.
The watch-protecting pocket is an
other novelty, designed to protect the
watch from pickpockets. 1t is made
of kid, lined with wash-leather, and
bound with metal like a portemomaie
The bright, gay parasols and sun
shades seen in Paris are no longer con-
fined to red ones, but pink, green and
yellow figure conspicuously.
A much-admired ball dress is of
white faille, bordered with a very
thick ruChe of white tulle on which
are studded tufts of cherries.
The mixture Of gray and red is fash
ionable.
Black dresses are often worn with
tunics of either netted silk or chenille.
Checked Madras and checked fou-
lard are worn for neglige.
Among fancy ornaments recently in
troduced for travelling are brooch, ear
rings, sleeve buttons and chatelaine,
of carved wood painted and vanished,
and matching the dress with which
they are worn in color.
The prediction that laces woven with
metal and all glittering trimmings
would disappear has not proven cor
rect.
\ new fancy for evening is hooded
mantilla of cream lace
The great extravaganza just now in
ladies' toilets are their embroidered
dresses.
Gloves continue to be selected to
match the color of the dress or its ac-
cessories.
Gold embroidery on linen cuffs and
collars is the newest style in lingerie.
Smyrnan lace of pure linen for trim
ming children's clothing.
Guipure lace is much used for
sacques and mantles this season. ".
