ST. LOUIS, Feb. 14.--The case for the

probably finish tonight, and there is a
strong probability that the case will be

this morning are confident of verdict
OF acquittal. Mcdonald, interviewed in
all, says Babcock never had any knowl-

A Wonderful Production.

A CURIOUS and wonderful work of
art has recently been added to the dis
play of interesting subjects in the
Woman'S Pavilion. 1t is located at the
north end of the building, in the Fine
Art Department, and is called "The
Dreaming Iolanthe." 1t is cast of a
female head, face, neck and shoulders,
the eyes being closed as if in slumber,
and the long, wavy hair hanging in
rich and elaborate treSseS over the
finely-formed shoulders. Every fea-
ture Of the face, every wave of the
hair, every portion of the neck and
shoulders are about as fine representa-
tions of those belonging to a living,
sleeping, dreaming, beautiful young
lady as could well be imagined, rival
ing the finest italian statuettes in Me-
mortal Hall. And what do you sup
pose this exquisite Dreaming To-
lanthe'' is made of? The only materi-
al used is butteri Yes, she is made of
good, nice, sweet, yellow butter, and
nothing else, The artist is Caroline
Brooks, of Helena, Ark, who sends
this wonderful production of her gen
JUS to the Exposition as a sample Of
what woman can do in this line of art
when she has the necessary time, OPP
portunity and butter. The statuette
is enclosed in handsome frame, the
inner portion of which is made of
zinc, and is hollow. Within the hol
low space is some sort of a refrigerat-
ing compound, by which the material
composing the dreaming beauty is
kept cool, otherwise during the recent
hot spell she would have dissolved and
run away-to oil. The only imple-
ments used by Miss (or Mrs. Brooks
in molding this wonderful head and
face were a common butter ''paddle,
a broom straw, a couple of cedar sticks
and a camefS hair pencil. If any O.
four Northern dairy women can do but
work, let them try it. Meanwhile Miss
or Mrs. Brooks may rest assured that
her first step toward fame and fortune
has been taken. She will henceforth
be able to earn her bread and butter,
and considerable more, as a sculptur-
ess. Winnie Ream and Harriet Hos
mer should look to their laurels.-

White muslin sacques are the popu-
lar garments this summer for wearing
with colored skirts, in preference to
the plated waists that have been so
long used. The latter garments are
not entirely discarded, but are not con-
sldered as dressy as the sacques, which
are worn on the street as well as in the
house.
Dressing sacques made by hand are
now imported and sold as low as
$3.50. Tucks and needle-work are the
preferred trimming. Some new toilet
sacqueS have seam down the middle
OF the back, sloping them to the figure
slightly; but these are not liked as
well as the straight, old-fashioned
shape with only under-arm seams.
White suits, though seldom seen on
the street this season, are as popular
as ever at the watering-places and for
house dresses. Victoria lawns and
nansooks are most used; pique has lost
favor, except for morning wrappers.
The simplest suits are made with
sacques shaped by darts, long, round
over-skirts and demi-trains They are
trimmed with tucked ruffies or en-
broidered tiounces, headed by clusters
of tucks. At the best houses those
made in the neateSt manner cost from
$40 to $25.
The muslinS used in the French fur
nlshing houses are now imported and
sold here. There are heavy French
percales, hard-inished, with even
round threads, used for winter under
clothing and for skirts, at from twenty
five to forty-fve cents a yard: soft-fin-
lshed French cambrics of lighter quail
1ty, for summer lingerie, cost from
fifty cents to $1.25 a yard. English
percaleS, of soft, smooth, even threads,
ready for the needle, cost the same as
the French goods. English nansook
and cambria for gowns and skirts is a
yard wide, and costs from twentv-Six
cents to $1.0O.-H0rper's Baz0r.

Summer Fashions.

VICTORIA lawn is used for plain
sacuues, fine French nansOok for nicer
ones; linen sacques are made to order,
and are liked by many for their cool
ness, but as they rumple and show
soils readily, the furnishing-houses do
not keep a supply of them.
Petticoats are made fuller than for
merly. They have straight breadths
behind, with an exceedingly narrow
side gore and front breadth. The belt
is cut in a point in front, while the
straight back has drawing-strings that
enable the wearer to change the size.
Among domestic muslins the best
brands are now sold for twelve and a
half cents up to fourteen cents a yard,
and very good light muslins may be
had for ten cents. French machine
made embroideries are used for trim
ming these, and are now found in neat
patterns, and as substantial as needle
work.
