to be not only ornamental but useful to the
wearer. Trim with tassel fringe. The most
stylish basque is square back and front, tapped
on the chest, forming one revere held by but
ton.
Long overskirts draped low and finished
simply by thick piping are really very pretty.
Side pleatings are used this season, also rose
leaf or scalloped pleatings are quite fashionable.
Fringes, tassels, and lace are used for trim
mings.
Furs are used as borderings to all kinds of
out door garments. Cloaks are made very long

A Man Cant be Scared out of His
Property.

ST. ALBANs, VT, Dec, 20. Chancellor
Royce has this afternoon filed in the clerks
office a decretal order in the celebrated
Hoyt Dewey scandal case In the summer
of 1879 Mrs. Clara N. Dewey, widow,
claimed that Hon Romeo Hoyt, q married
man, was guilty Of improper advances and
behavior towards her, and summoned to
her aid, by telegraph, her brother Henry
r. Brigham, q Boston lawyer. who imme-
diately came on, and in day or two
thereafter Mr.. Hoyt transferred to Mrs.
Dewey and Mr.. Brigham bank stock and
real estate of the aggregate value of about
$4,000. Immediately after Brigham's re-
turn home the particulars of the affair
came out, and Hoyt brought II suit in
chancery against Mrs. Dewey and Brig
ham TO recover the property, claiming
that it was exorted from him as black
mail A large number of eminent lawyers
have been engaged for months taking tes-
timony in the case before master in
chancery. The evidence fills about 800
printed pages, and many portions of it
eclipse the Beecher case entirely The
order of the Chancellor filed to-day directs
the return of the property to the plaintiff,
and finds that defendants eXtorted it from
him by threats. The case will undoubted-
ly 60 to the Supreme Court, which sits
here next month, but the legal profession
here regard it as highly improbable that
that court will go back of the Chancelor's
finding Of facts, and reverse his decision
which is IN accord with the great weight
OF popular opinion.
