Fashion Notes.

Long scarfs or lnAntillas in the Louis
XIV. style are made vi black or white
tulle embroidered, and are draped in
the Spanish fashion about the head.
Some of the winter bOnnets are made
in the capote shape and are entirely Of
"duvet' or the soft breast feathers of
birds glued on, like the bands which
come for dresses and cloaks.
There is a pretty fashion of having
hand.screens made of gilt wood with
fine wire tops painted 80 that the paint
ing shows on either side; there are
others of these screens with ostrich tops.
Among designs for Berlin and other
fancy work there is mantel lambre-
quin designed on soft gray material
representing medieval flower garden
in wEich figures are set among cOnven-
tlonal- looking flowers and domestic
animals and fowls; it has fringe and
Dor Ter to indicate the way it should be
finished.
Young ladies wear fanchon caps or
bonnets with large Alsatian bows at
receptions. being very much like those
worn this summer at dressy watering
places These are mere apologies for
bonncts but are exceedingly becoming.
For wedding receptions white dresses
of gauze or other thin materials are
worn with "casaquins" of white satin,
having the edges of the basque cut in
points; with these, dressy little hats
made entirely of small roses are worn,
sometimes set on one side of the head.
The prettiest sets of furs are made
for children in Siberian squirrel, imi-
tation seal and in chinchilla and err
mine. For ladies there is fashion of
wearing fur collars little pointed on
the shoulders with tabs crossing in
front; Siberian otter, Shetland sealskin
and Alaska sable are used for these.
Bands of fur are worn broad; pointed
beaver and sealskin are used for these;
and velvet is trimmed with chinchilla
or silver fox. The pretty little caps
of fur for misses and little girls have
"nest" of bright-colored birds set on
the front of the crown; these nests con-
sists Of three or four birds grouped to-
gether.
Fans come in many new patterns and
are especially attractive for the holi-
days. 1t is pretty fashion to have the
ian and box decorated alike. Some Of
the newest are composed entirely Of
feathers. The Trian0n, in black curled
ostrich, is studded with minute red rose
buds nesting among the feathers, and
the top is edged with peacock eyes.
Ebony fans have natural ostrich tops or
the pheasant feather which at present
IS . favorite for all styles Of decora-

Romantic Elopement.

A VERY romantic elopement from
Kentucky came to light here to-day.
The Rev. J. Oliver is the man and
Emma Abbott is the lady in the case.
The Rev. Oliver is a preacher thirty
years old, located near Bedford, Ky.,
and Miss Abbott is a teacher and the
daughter of a rich farmer at the same
place She is eighteen years old. He
loved and was beloved, proposed and
was obstinately accepted by the lady,
but not by her parents. Elopement
was determined upon. On yesterday
afternoon he was to call at her school
and take her on horseback to the near.
est railroad station, eighteen miles.
She packed her clothing and hid the
bundle in a thicket where he was to 90
and get it. He procured two swift sad
die horses. Yesterday afternoon, when
he approached the thicket, he saw the
BRIDES big brother walking away,
bearing the clothing on his arm. He
went at once with the horses to the
school-house. She dismissed school
till Monday, and presently both were
moving toward the railway station.
eighteen miles away. Not long after
starting they heard a horseman behind
them. 1t was her father in pursuit, &C.
companicd by his sons. For half an
hour there was race, flight and pur-
suit, the pursucrs gaining. The fugi-
tives, thanks 10 darkness and by-road,
eluded their pursuers, and, crossing
fields and swimming streams. made 3
station a little further on just in time.
Arriving in Louisville last night, the
first man the young lady spied was her
uncle, Judge Abbott. She managed to
avoid being observed by him, and the
pair, surprising they were watched,
went by private conveyance to New AL
bany, and thence took train to this
city. Here the Rev. Oliver applied for
a marriage license, and learned that
he must swear that he and she were
residents of Ohio, which he would not
