FASHIONS,
LATEST THING IN kIl;Boys


In the fashion news from Europe great stress
is laid upon the fact that dress goods and rib.
bons are to COPY furniture effects Caricatur-
lists have pointed out the n1iserics to be endured
by fashionably- y-dresscd women, when On enter
ing room they find their costumes and the
furniture decorations, the porttercs, aud the
hangings, clashing and discordaut in their
effects, blue with purple, or gold with ochrc.
But, for aIi this, the appropriation OF ''furni-
ture effects" is highly priced by all lovers Of
color. Sonbre groundworks covered with
figures in relief, in rich tones of red, yellow,
sapphire; olive, and bronze appear In all the
new spring goods; these momie-cloth effects
hare crcpt into the looms Of st. Eticnne to re-
appear in the ribbons which just now are more
used as trimmings than anything else ~
There are to be found among the very latest
importations in ribbons several distinct styles.
One OF these, the "granite," gives granite
effect in all its backgrounds, thus throwing out
tue designs more et1cctually; another, the Jap
ancse cashmere, initiates the palnu-lcaf patterns
OF India on a groundwork OF fine arabesque.
The most satisfactory, perhaps, OF all is the
'.cmail,' which seems to copy with peculiar
and vivid fcrvor tile japanese patterns, rs seen
III the c!oisonne and other Japanese ware.
Some OF tue pattern-1lakers for the St. Etienue
jacquard looms have evidently carried homie
from the Paris Exhibition some new thoughts,
aud have wrought them with wonderful auupt-
iyeness into ali the ribbons. We have the
queer little Japanese fan patterns, the intricate
and mystic Zgzags, mixed With familiar yet
strange seeming flower designs; anu all thrse
appear and ryappear in all kinds Of blending col
ors and patterns, the sapphire and turquoise
blues, the sage greens aud olives, the bronzes
and glowing yellows and deep reds, yet all toned
down into those effects which are seen in monte
cloths and other new goods.
For evening wear the admixture OF gold
threads in the woof gives q glstening effect,
and ribbons OF an inch wide, or narrower, are
used bv Parislan dressmakers very effectively
for long-looped bows put on, in ladders up the
sides Of the pulled dresses, or intcrnixcd with
laces which are put on in jnbots. These ribbons
will also figure i'll the spring millinery impprta-
tions, as there are no new gauzes or scarf TRIM
mings. and ribbons will therefore be entirely de-
penQed upon.
Every day new patterns are added to those
already imported, aud among the wider ribbons
used for dress or bonnet trimmu. thero are
new Dompadour styles with rich Backgrounds Of
rrenat, on which are designs in blues aud olives,
or broche ribbons with mauy peculiar effects Of
color. Piaid ribbons in basket weave arc much
employed, and enproidereu ribbons with flow
ers embroidered in The centre, have borders with
plaid colors in them. and are quantity olu-fash-
ioned, bnt, like everything else old-fashioned,
they are in favor.

The Death Penalty.


Capital punishment was abolished +
Switzerland four years ago, and since It's
abolition there has been such an increase
u the country in crimes of violence, es
peelailT q murder, that petitions, signed
by 10000 persons, for restoration Of the
death penalty, have been presented to the
Federal Council The Council have been
seriously considering the question for six
months, and have decided that the sta.
tlstles OF four years do not give data suf-
hclent for a definite and satisfactory
conclusion. They have looked up the
facts and figures Of crime in other lands.
where murder is punishable and pun.
lshed with death, and find that violence
has increased there not less than in
Switzerland. In England there were %
executions in 1877, against 4 in 1871; in
Belgium, 81 in 1877, against 81 in I77I:
and IN France 81 in both years. IL Den
mark, Holland, Italy, Germany and Aus
tHa murder has terribly augmented in the
same time, and is due, in the opinion Of
the Council to growth Of misery, licen-
tiousness and intemperance. The last
five or ten years have been especially
marked By poverty, wretcbednesy and
suffering throughout civilization, and
where these are in usual p portion crime
Is likewise. Much Of what we understand
to be sin is the direct Or indirect result Of
unhappness in some form.-Ne,o York

McDowall Cox, who lives about four
n les from Lafayette, in Wabash Town
ship, about two weeks ago lost a dog
which he highly priced. The last that
was seen Of the animal was one day
about that length If time ago, when he
scared up some unknown creature and
darted out Of sight after it.
4 day or Two ago Mr.. Cox accidental
ly discovered his dead body ia The woods
and about thirty feet distant the dead
body of large wolf The ground
around the wolf was covered with hair
torn from his woolly coat
Evidently the dog, after a long strug-
gle, had killed the wolf and then, walk
ing off distance Of thirty feet Or 50
laid down to die.
The wolf stood about twenty two inches
in height when on his feet, and was more
than twice as large as the dog.
