STOPPING NOTES.

Young ladies wear caps Ike those Of
the Roman peasant women-l:ttle obloDg
pieces of Swiss or organdy, decorated
with lace and ribbons, and long gold
headed pins are used to pin them on.
Black grenadine dresses have faint tints
of yellow and old gold introduced in their
trimmings, sometimes in the shape of
pipings, sometimes in ribbons set under
the ruffies of French lace
japanese pins with fan, and a mouse
watching fly, Or silver bow, arrows.
and culver, are among the newest pat
terms in sterling silver for long scarf pins,
and chatelains have the top of the nook
enameled with some pretty design or q
painting in enamel set under glass.
Pretty aprons are to be worn this sea-
son by little girls up to the age Of Is.
Some Of these are in dotted Swiss, with
Valenciennes or forchon insertions, and
lace set in the bibs and bretelles. Some
of the null and nainsook aprons have
edges Of colored lace, and bows OF ribbon
combining the two shades Of the lace. A
great many specimens are found in all
the leading dry goods. houses.
The 'AIadrilina" scarf is OF Spanish
lace, to be worn as mantiIIa, or over the
head. The "Mercedes" scarf is of crepe
de chine embroidered in the gay Spanish
colors used this year, and border of
gaily tinted fyfringe finishes the edges;
this is also used on the head. -f
Black is to be worn a great deal this
year; it is taking quite as prominent q
part as white in the seasons fashions.
With this, silver iewelry is very effective;
silver band bracelets are now worn quite
wide, with little polished knobs or balls
set closely on the edges. Large medallion
pendants and lockets, also OF sterling sill
Yer, are found at the principal jewelers.;
and handsome pins and ear rings; some
OF these in the shape OF round platters,
with beehives on them in frosted work,
others with japanese patterns.
Great favor is shown this year for all
the Scotch zephyr goods, or soft finish
ell ginghanls, which resemble foulards.
There is an endless variety of designs,
from the plain goods in all the shades OF
gray, beige, and in all plaid designs up
to the gayly tipped Stuart tartan. The
English cheviots are also much employed
for ladies' and children's seaside dresses,
being thoroughly well adapted for all the
changes of the weather, and much worn
by English ladies for this reason.-Nctc

phone, modelled en- the principle of the
telephone, by which one old reliable hen

sits on all the nests about the establish

eggs, scratch and cackle. AS soon as the
new nest contains the full complement of
eggs it is connected with the central of

is settled. The only trouble with the
machine is that it sits 50 hard it matches

THURSDAY, JUNE 81, 1875.

THE London correspondent of a New
York paper has been to some trouble IN
collecting statistics OF the growing crops,
and has arrived at the conclusion that,
however much may have been promised
early in the season, long and obstinate
spell Of cold and wet weather has chang
ed the aspect. and it is quite certain the
harvest in England will be poor one.
As it comes in time when trade is stag
nant, it cannot but prove great misfor-
tune, and at the same time temporary
good thing for America is figured ont Of
it. The harvest here promises to be alb
undant, and there is a likelihood that il
will be wanted in Europe. Russia, the
great American rival in grain culture, has
had something else to occupy its atten-
ton, and viii not be able to supply any
body. With poor crop in England, all
Europe will naturally be forced to look
to the United States for supply of
bread. The ill-wind over there, accord
ing TO this correspondent, will blow with
quite different effect on the shores on
this side of the Atlantic. 1t is possible
that there is good deal of truth in the
statements. Unquesdonably the wheat
crop of Great Britain will be light, and
it is by no means probable Russia viii
produce anything near the usual guam
tity. A good foreign market would have
tendency to enliven business materially,
and is almost a vital necessity. Without
it, the surplus crop would be about use
less, and until the surplusage is disposed
of there is not much prospect of revival
of trade. 1t is not pretty to rejoice over
the hard luck Of our cousins across the
ocean, but if the facts prove as stated we
can afford to be somewhat lubilant as far
as our own fortune is concerned. -Er.

a PHILADELPHIA has just improved
the steamboat propeller. There are four
wheels, two on each side of the boat, run
on endless steel cables from one wheel
to the other like belt over two pulleys,
both ends Of each paddle being securely
fastened into triangular-sbaped piece
Of iron which works like cog, dropping
into notches in the iron wheel at proper
intervals as it revolves. Thus there are
continually several paddles in the water
all working at once, instead of only one,
as IN the ordinary wheel. Further,
these paddles are working in compare
lively still water, while with the common
wheel the water is churned into foam,
and, after a certain point is reached in
the swiftness of the revolutions, speed is
lost instead of gained. III.

The Indians in Burnett county, to the
number of several thousand got together
last week and had grand pow WOW at
which new dance was INDUCED in, the
meeting being attended by large dele
cation of redskins from Minnesota. The
settlers in the vicinity, not being posted
on the subject, mistook it for a grand
war dance and allowed themselves to be
frightened out of their wits at what they
considered the preparations for a whole
sale massacre, and got up a ''scare" in
comparison with which the experience Of
our citizens some years ago was nothing.
Startling kilograms were sent to the Gov
ernor to the effect that settlers We're flee
ing for their lives, leaving their homes
and effects at the mercy of the savages,
and piteOus appeals for help came pour
ing in from the county officials in such
profusion that our staid Governor was
induced to telegraph 20 General Sheridan
for troops to quell the disturbance.
Gen. Ed. T. Bryant was dispatched to
the scene of confusion; and it did not
take him long to see how foolish the
"scare" was and send assuring dispatch
es to the state authorities. There was
no occasion for alarm whatever, and at
this writing peace reigns supreme not
only in the breast of the wild child Of

nished columns of matter for the dailies
and whitened the cheeks CT the brave

for the walls of redskin wigwam.
