seem in transition state of some of
the ideas of the jacket which is
now almost thing of the past,
and also of the long sacques and
wraps of the winter season. The
greater number are comparatively
short at the back, with shadow
fronts; that is, fronts coming
down long in the mantilla style
then we have the genuine mantil
la shapes, circular garments, and
DJlmans in infinite variety. All
may be either en- suite with the
costume, or If independent gar.
ments. are in Cashmere, Sicilienne,
or silk. Long circulars of plaid
camefs hair cloth of light quality
are IN favor as undress wraps, and
are certainly very convenient du-

and change.

All these styles and materials
as well as almost every other, con.
nected with Modes, are found

This periodical which, as its name
indicates, is issued four times a
year, once for each season is a
large and beautiful illustrated
magazine of 81 pages, giving nu
merous illustrations and accurate
descriptions of goods and garm-

ton to ladies living out of New
York. How these four numbers
comprising over two hundred pa

can be furnished to subscribers at
twenty fVe-cents a year is a mys-
terry; but that is the price. Il
would advise any of your lady
readers who desire further infor-
nation on these points to take it
and see for themselves. The pub
Messrs. Enrich & Co.. !
have the hest facilities for making
such a magazine interesting and |
reliable, being the propretors of
the great dry goods establishment
bearing their name on Eighth Av.
enue, one Of the finest of its char.
acter in the world. On the IOh
they had a brilliant Centennial o.
pening that was as attractive with

ry lady visitor was presented with
q beautiful souvenir of the occa-
sion. For men not far advanced
in life to have taken an acknowl-
edged position among our Dry
Goods Kings is remarkable, but is
no less a fixed fact.

AnInnocent Man Hanged,
kansas City Times.

hohoao NAtJ AASS'
A few days ago the Times
published a brief telegraphic
dispatches from Dodge City,
Kan, announcing that a band
of vigilantcs had hanged two
men near Fort Dodge for steal
ing horses in Sumner county,
Kansas. Subsequent inquiries,
made by the grief-stricken faith
er of one Of the men hanged
a young man named Callahan,
son of preacher in Topeka
proved beyond a doubt that
Callahan was guiltless of any
connection with the crime. He
was engaged in gathering buff
falo bones on the plains, and
had been hauling some from his
"dug out" to the railroad when
one of the horse thieves came
to his place. He gave him shell
ter. While he was there the
vigilantes from Sumner county
came up and arrested both par
ties, and Notwithstanding Gala
hams protestations and his en-
deavor to show that he lived
there and had not been to Sum-
ner county, took him with the
guilty man and hanged him then
and there. The Rev. Mr.. Gala
han says that his murdered son
was in no way implicated in
this crime.

Men that are Born Lazy

n @NASA SASS S~1 ~ A~SA a ~~SSSJ
At all times and at all sea
sons of the year, the streets OF
) every city and town are infes
. ted with men looking for worl
J but unable to obtain it. Witt
a few the old story of looking
! for work, and not getting it
being homeless and starving il
unfortunately true, but with {
large majority is only humbug
True they have no work, but
that is generally theirown fault
They aye. not lazy, but have q
Discrimination to work, always
finding some trivial excuse for
not earning their own living
when the means are offered
them. This was foreibly illus
trated in Allegheny City, Penn,
recently, where about fifty
tramps had sought shelter from
the cold by appealing to the
sympathies of the captain of
police, who provided them with
at least warm quarters for a
night. A gentleman of the
neighborhood wanted a num-
| ber of men to cut ice for him,
and applied to the captain to
know if he could send him a
lot of able-bodied men who wan
ted work.
the captain as he opened the
door leading to the tramp de-
partment. gHk

cut ice, and 1 will pay good
wages. If 1 can get some of
those poor fellows who have no
place to 90, / would sooner take
them. It would be a benefit to
them, and / know they would
like to have the job"
"We have about fifty ofthem

stout, hearty fellows, any of
whom were able to do a good
davis work. Captain Wilson
announced to them that there
was a good chance for all of
them to work at good wages
the next day.
"Now, boys" said the ice
man, 81 heard there were SO
many men out Of work and
starving that l thought the best
thing | could do would be to
give my work to such fellows as
are really needy. Now how
many will be on hand to-mor-
row? Just step here and give
me your names. Good wages,
cash down every night"
Imagine his surprise when
not a man stirred.
'If you fellows don't like
this Job you need not come back
here any more,' said the cap
tain in his usual impressive
way. o,,
t:How much viii you give9"
Iazily inquired a big, hearty
man.
GA dollar and a-half a day
cash every night if you need
it,
"What sort of wages is that
for a man to freeze himself to
death for?" remarked another
fellow, tugging vehemently at a
short-stemmed clay pipe.
Another gave the ice man
regular setting down for grind
ing the poor. Another never
did work for less than two doll
lars a day, and he didn't pro
pose to allow any man to take
advantage of him. Thus 1t
went, and after a deal of talk
ing, eight out of the fifty went
to work, the remaining forty
two positively refusing to be
ground down by the heartless
capitalist. Some of them acted
as though they were insulted,
while others had bad colds,
pains in the back, subject to
rheumatism, threatened with
typhoid fever OF just getting
over a severe attack Of neural

COSTUMES

The ideas of that class Of indl-
viduals who devise spring cos
tunes seem affected by a strange
perversity. Thus in order to be
stylish one must wear garments
that seem TO he twisted out of
their proper place. One side must
be different from the other; if one
side is long, the other must be
short if one hangs straight, the
other must be rounded off; and,
to sum up the whole matter, eve
rything must be crooked, twisted
and pulled out of place. One cir
cumstance saves US from absolute
confusion, land that is the necessity
for the wearing of wash fabrics du-
ring the summer season. They
must be "done up" therefore they
must be comparatively simple, yet
even here we find many crooked
ideas, and where an over-skirt
may be OF equal proportion, the
trimming is often placed in such a
way as to produce an effect of dis.
proportion. POlonaises are worn,
yet basques and over skirts are in
the ascendancy, and even in wash
materials have obtained the pref
erence. / have said that

BONNETS.


The rank assigned to a younE
lady in the scale of Fashion is a
present in proportion to the dis
tance between the end of her nose
and her new Spring bonnet; the
honors accorded her increasing
rapidly as she nears the last round

solutely impossible way, is regar.
ded with the same sort of admira-
tion by her feminine compeers as
the acrobat who performs super
human feats of agility. Other
acrobats of inferior degree are
ready to treak their necks in imi-
tation; and SO other young la
dies buy hand glasses and will
go and stand before their looking
glasses, where with saint. like pa
tience they spend hours in imita
ting the wonderful performances
they have seen. What the hu-
man mind, when strongly bent in
one direction, may accomplish, is
wonderful, indeed, and thus it
comes to pass, as the result of
such determined competition, that
hats do hang on in a very Won
derful sort of way, and were l a
spiritualist, ] would have no
doubt that uDearthly hands held
them in their place, since OF earth
ly power l beheld none, unless it
be a chat pin," which, provided
expressly for the needs of the
hour, is made long enough to be
run through and through, and fas-
TENT to the coil. Yeteven such an
ingenious coutrivance appears to
me insufficient to account for what
| see, and therefore | resign my
self, if not to admiration, yet to
wondering amazement. Why
such very pretty hats should be
removed so far out of sight, is a
mystery likewise, for charming
they really are.
IVORY TINTED CHIPS
are trimmed with softly woven
silks in faint, yellow shades, and
finished with delicate flowers,
which in graceful sprays or rich
moutures almost cover the outside
characterization of all kinds is law
ishly employed, but both fabrics
and flowers are so refined that the
effect produced is of similar charac-
ter. Very light tints prevail, and
although pale yellow shades come
first, yet we see beautiful bonnetS
in pure white, or trimmed with
faint blue. pink or lilac. Very
dark brown is constantly used as
an effective contrast, and the bril-
liant Cardinal red is as fashionable
as it has ever been. Contrasts be-
tween very dark and very light
hues is indeed an idea of the time.
and as dark colors are placed as
points of effect on hats in which
very light colors prevail, SO on
the other hand, we observed dark
straws lightened with pale silks
and delicately tinted flowers, and
white or creamy blossoms are u
nited with sombre foliage.

ANDREW JACKsoN's DUEL WITH DICK
( lNSON.-lhe duel ostenslbly originated in
a horse race, which by the way, was never
run; but the alimus II ii, 50 far as Jack

Dickinson had spoken i'll of Mrs. Jackson.
/ Dickinson was a dead shot; could hit a
half-dollar at ten spaces. kill bird on the
! wing, aud perform other miraculous featS
with pistol. He was as brave and cool
"a he was skilful, aud never entertained a

/ arrangement was that when the word was

ed. jackson, knowing DickinsOns supe-
/ rior quickness with his weapon, resolved
| not to attempt to get the first fire, but to
take the chances for second.
| The Instant the sign was shouted, Dick
in>on fired. The dust flew from the loose

wore, hu he stood there like pillar OF az

out among the silent woods where the dea

! Jackson was able to mount his horse and
| ride home the next day-barely able, iol
| the bullet which seemed to miss him ha.
really passed throLgh the fleshy part 0
| his breast and cut the breast bone. Hi:
shoes were full OF blood when he walked
from the fatal field; but be conce aled the

had bit him at all. In answer to the question
how he could. after receiving such shock

the occasion of frequent hemorrhages il
