Centennial Travelling Suits.

WHAT shall we wear to the Centennial?
is the query of numerous correspondents.
The suit for the journey to and from Phil
adelphia is more especially the object of
inquiry, as the dress worn in the Centen-
NAL buildings will naturally be just what
the wearer would use at home on semi
dress occasions-costumes of wool and
silk, or all silk, or, as the summer ad-
vances, of batiste or grenadine. AT pres
ent ladies do not undertake a journey Of
any length without travelling cloak, and
this cloak is so large and so completely
protects and conceals everything beneath
it, that the travelling dress has come to be
an item of secondary interest. These
cloaks are made at present of light cloth,
serge, or water proof, while for the sum-
mer they will be fashioned of linen and
of a heavy Louisine CIVILIZED silk of En-
glish manufacture, as light aud superior
of its kind as is the English waterproof

Merits and Prospects Of the Centen'
NAL Exposition.

EVERY day, however, shows that the
energy and determination of the Centen-
nial Board of Finance and few of the
Centennial Board of Commissioners in
opening the Exhibition at all hazards on
time has had an admirable effect True,
it is not in finished condition, but then
the public have encountered no disap-
pointments, unless it be pleasureable
ones. They were fully informed of the
progress and condition of the work, and
found it far in advance of what they an
ticipated. On the other hand, everything
connected with the inaugural ceremonies
went off with the precision of clockwork,
and gave an impetus and eclat to the en-
terprise which will successfully tide it
over the intervening time, when it can
stand on its own merits and ask no favors
further than the inspection and criticism
of all intelligent men. As much cannot
be said of any preceding Worlds Fair,
and have seen few of them, and that
fact is readily acknowledged by all our
foreign visitors. Especially is it true OF
the latest European Exhibition, that at
Vienna, with which our own, following
so soon in its footsteps, gains greatly by
comparison in point of completeness and
promptness. My words are fully borne
out by the remarks of a well-informed
American whom met going through the
main building. He had been present al
the Paris and Vienna exhibitions, and his
comparison of this with others is worth
recording. "It is" said he" lin all
points superior, the variety and

The shapes are loose listers, or else cape
which have been described in former
numbers Of the Basar They cost from
$1s to S24. They are abundantiy supplied
with pockets, are trimmed with substan
tial braids, have strong ivory buttons, and
may be looped in various ways to shorten
| them into very nice looking over dresses
when necessary. Vague, indistinct plaidS
of dark brown, gray, and maroon are the
colors most used. The garments with
sleeves are preferred for travelling cloaks,
as 1t is necessary to use the arms often in
travelling, and circulars without armholes
contine the arms in clumsy way The
round hat and long scarf veil are bought
with reference 10 the color Of the cloak,
AS for the dress beneath the cloak, it is
so well protected that ladies' who do not
wish to carry much luggage venture to
| wear one of their best suits, such as
black silk costume, or any other fabric
| that will endure crushing and look fresh
afterwarl for general wear. Adore all
others, the thin, light, wool armures and
de beges, either plain or striped, trimmed
with many rows of wool braid, are COM
mended for service at any time during the
six months of the Exposition. These
should be made up in light and simpIe
manner, such as a BOiteuse polonaise and
walking skirt, for Philadelphia is warm
city, and light mot weighty> clothing will
be desirable. The skirts of such dresses
should be short, or else arranged so that
they can easily be shortened TO clear the
ground when walking. Batiste and ging-
ham suits will DC made in the same COM
pact fashion to wear at midsummer.
Rough satin faced straw bonncts will be
worn tor travelling by elderly ladies,
while yonng ladies will coniine them
selves to the comfortable round hats with
projecting tCQue brimS, or else English
walking hats, turned up on one side only,
OR upon both. The veil trimming adopted
last year win be revived, with changes.
The veil will be wound around the crown,
and two ends will hang behind, TO be
again brought to the front around the
neck, and knotted there. The gloves for
travelling arc of Uudressed kid, long
wrIsted, and of darker brown or gray
shades than those chosen for more dresSy
wear. The lingerie is plain linen collar
and cuffs, or else ornamented with simple
hem m-stitching, or perhaps bias border of
colOrcd percaIc. Leather belts are re
ViypI and their fuuil;ur attachments of
chatelanes for fan, vinaigrette, and para
sol viii come into use again with the sen
sible toilettes OF the Centennial summer,
when adaptabihty and service are consult
ed rather than show. Striped India
shawls are the tavoritc travelling shawls at
present They are good enough for all
occasions, and are sold more reasonably
just now than they have been at any pre-
vious season-UuVerS Bdzdr.

-One of the citizens of Danbury, Conn

One Of the citizens of Danbury, Conn,
who had just returned from the West, was
telling in Merrill's grocery Of narrow
escape he had from terrible death. He
was crossing long railroad bridge on
foot, when he was surprised to see loco,
motive coming around curve. and tear
ing toward him at terrific speed. The
bridge was too narrow to allow of escape
at either side, ana he did not dare to Jump
into the yawning abyss below. In flash
he took in the situation and formed his
plan of action. He started on swift run
toward the oncoming locomotive, and
when within few feet of it he cOncen-
trated all his nerve and muscle into one
effort, and leaped straight up in the air.
The fearful monster shot under him, and
he came down on the bridge, saved from
death, but seriously shaken up by the de-
scent. There was moment of deep ST.
lence upon the close of this narration.
Then one ofthe company sighed, and shut
up his knife, and Unexpectedly said
What's the use of presence Of mind
when a man can lie like that?'

A Lion at Large.

A LARGE African lion, known rs
q Parker" belonging to llowCS X Cush-
ing's Circus and Mcnageric, AT FlMbUsh
and Fifth avenues, in Brooklyn, broke
some of the bars Of his cage yesterday
afternoon, and dashed through The tent
which contained the wild animals into the
omen an2"e ,vviii"h e"rrn'IndEl, the CirCus
| tent, and which was separated from inc
street by a high board fence. Great ex-
Gitcmcnt was at once created among the
performers and employees, who rushed Tor
| the street in their stage costumes. during
! all the excitement the audience III the
! main tent was unaware of what was gong
on in the smaller inClOsure and outside.
| After the performers had fed Mr.. BOwles,
| the man who had been left by Prof. Los
son in charge of the cages, seized pole
and dashed through the opening into the
| tent. As he passed one OF the boxes
| blOCkading the passage, one OF the female
performers rushed toward him, pursued
| by the lion. Her clothing had been torn
| from her back by the animal, which had
caught the sweeping trail OF her dress,
tearing it to shreds. BOw]eS, as the
woman sprang toward him, seized and
threw her over one of the large dressing
cases, at the same time throwing himself
to one side, thus escaping from the in
furiated lion After looking around for a
minute in the open space the animal
dashed back again toward the menagerie,
cncountering one Of the performing dogs,
Patty, in his passage. The lion seized
the dog in his Jaws, and in an instant
crushed it into a shapeless mass. This
appeared to mollify his anger, and he
crouched upon the ground munchlnS the
carcass and growing with satisfaction.
Meanwhile, the performers and tentmen
who could be recalled from flight, col
Iectcd about the tent, armed with sticks,
poles and clubs. At this time Professor
Lesson arrived, and armed with weapon
used for Furnishing the animal, began the
assault on the lion. He ordered his aids
TO form semi-circle around the beast,
and, approaching it, snapped his whip,
shouted, and pointed toward the cage.
The animal growled and glared upon his
master, who, keeping his eye upon 1t,
struck the beast severe blow across the
face. 1t howled and retreated toward the
cage. Following it rapidly up with we'll
directed blows, one of which lamed one
of the animals legs, the lion was forced
into cage, which was then securely fas-
toned The lion WAS captured in Africa
when he was apparently about four
years old. In the London Amphitheater
he killed his keeper, Thomas Jarvis, Il
noted lion n-tamer.-N. Y. Tribune.

vastnesS of display in the machinery
| department is far superior in all its
| details, and the Exhibition in the ssaain
| building also -excels. As for the attend
ance, it is not in any respect inferior. At
the early stages of an exhibition, when its
incompleteness is taken into considera-
tion an affair, Of this kind never takes
complete hold of the people throughout
the country and the world until it has been
month in running order. Those who
come at first are the advance guard who
advertise it throughout the length and
breadth of the land. I was at the Vienna,
three weeks after it opened, and it had not
made as much advance in popular favor
then at this has in five days. At the
Paris Exhibition at night the attendance
was kept up by grand concerts on the
grounds, at which the most eminent mu-
sicIans took part. The admission was one
franc, or five francs per week, with the
photograph of the subscriber upon the
ticket, Tor which one franc was charged at
the first purchase, and probably the man
agement of this affair may find in time
that season tickets are preferable when it
comes to be understood that it will REQUIRE
a month of days at least for any human
being to get over the grounds with any
degree of satisfaction. But take it all in
all, no mistake can be greater than not to
suppose, from all appearances, that this
exhibition will be as popular and success
ful as any yet heidi
A significant fact, and one which in all
future expositions, both in this country
and elsewhere, should be noted and guard
ed against is the tardiness of American
merchants and manufacturers in sending
in to the proper authorities their appliCa-
tions for space, and when that is granted
them, their exhibits to be placed in posi-
ton, always in the hurly-burIy, ever in
the rear, and making big shout and big
blow about their enterprise. They put in
an appearance with their goods when the
show is fairly under way, caring nothing
whether they disarrange that which is al
ready in place or mar the general effects
Of the surroundings by the presence of the
huge, unsightly cases that contain their
especial wares. An instance of what | !
have called attention to is the official state |
ment made to-day by the Centennial au- |,
that no less than 800 applica- |
tons for space, over three-tOurths of which |
are from Americans, are now awaiting !
