plate marriage we make the state
mcnt hat decided change has taken
place i'll the manufacture Of wedding
night gowns. They are no longer
made out Of hlcachcd homcspun rs
they were i'll the carly days Of the re-
public-iong before Tie female form
was bolstcrcd about and disliwurcd
with bustlcs and false calves and pal,
ritators, when The dear creatures were
estimated at their ,ruc value and no.
according tn the amount fix Ms
they wore. The new nigh, gown,
however, is IN Improvement Oh any
thing in that line that our grandmas
were accustomed to. Wcquote:
"Thc material is The shccrcst linen
lawn, cut i'll the princcsSc form and
bordcrcd with Il s,raigh!way iiouncc.
edged on both sides with German lace.
The sleeves are coat-shapcd, and on
The upper sides are made open by
diagonal insertions Of lace and
wrought muslin. Upon the body,
from the shoulder to the st-lnc, is
& similar arrangement Of insertions
and lace, Stimulating lapcIs. About
the neck is standing collarcttc,
formed of Il full ruflie Of lace, broad

A uIrlr GAME sroepeo.

The timberiand depreciation question In
I.0uisana has taken decidedly new SNAPS.
In Calcasien parish. Of that state, there are
at ptcsen, Gu, and ready for saving 06.000
logs. valued nj sboIt 81 81 each. or q total
value Of tlal 500. Tic logs when cut and
thrown upon dry land are considered per
ishahl-. being liable tn speedy decay. and
the parties who have been engaged In the
alleged deprcda,ions find ,hcmseivc. much
embarrassed by being compelled 10 close
their extensive SAW mills and discharge
their numerous hands. The question 81 to
the title of the land upon which the logs
were cut b.ing in dispute, the parties who
cut the logs recently applied To Judge Bill.
ings TO be allowed 10 give bond u the total
value Of the logs, 80 as to be permitted to
keep their mills In operation aud save their
logs from decay.
Judge Billings, after considering the mat
ter, decided that either the parties who cut
the logs or the United States could bond the
same on or before Monday, the ID instant,
and in default of either party bonding the
logs ordered that the same be sold at pub
lie auction and the money turned into court
pendent lie. The log cutters, conceiving the
thrifty idea that the United States would
not bond the logs and that the same would
VIC solu ~ puuiiC huCtlou, "ucn lney COuIu
purchase them q. low figures, failed to stand
by the proposition In give bonds. The at
tcntion Of the secretary of the interior was
recently called TO this phase of the question,
and he has been considering the expediency
OF the United States bidding 10 the logs in
the event of there being no competition at
the auction sale The decision reached is
hat the government, as means of self.
defense, will watch the sale, and if necessa.
ry bid in the logs rather than that they
shall be sold at a sacrifice.
