SUMNER silks have not been entirely
superseded by fonlard and pongees.
They come in the same pin-head and
flower stripes formerly used, but the
checks are of heliotrope or white claret,
or cream color, while the stripes are the
merest threads of gold or blue, or laven-
der on violet, or cream on myrtle green.
There are also polka-dotted lavender
and heliotrope silks of this light quality
that makes pretty dresses when trimmed
with creamy Languedoc lace.

Another Ocean Steamship Missing.

Last year quite a number of ocean steam
ships, mostly freight carriers, sailed from yaIi-
Gus ports and were not heard of after. This
year but comparatively few occurrences of this
nature have been reported. In the cases .of
many of the vessels lost last year their founder
ing has been generally attributed to the shifting
of the cargoes of grain which they carried.
One of the vessels supposed to be lost this year
is the Mercator, steamship which sailed from
Antwerp March for New York. The vessel
carried no passengers, being designed simply as
a freight vessel. The cargo was valued at
51200 600. The AIercator is at least two months
overdue and all hopes of its ever returning have
been given up by the owners and consiguees.
The manner in which the vessel was lost will
probably never be known and the Mercator viii
be included in that long list of vessels that have
sailed from port and never been heard of after

The Clowns Baby.

?
One night during the performance of
pantOmime at bennington, in which
William emmett took the part OF clown,
a curious hitch occurred. At the mo-
ment when that ever-mischIevOus indi-
vidual had to run on to the stage with a
baby, supposed to have been stolen from
some perambulator, which said baby is
then thrown violently at the policeman
as he rushes in, staff in hand, the dunn
my, or, as it is termed, property baby,
was nowhere to be found. ItsO happened
that a woman was standing near the wing
door with her baby in her arms at the
moment when William Ginnet came for
his dummy. Seeing thati was not forth
coming, he at once snatched the baby
from the wOman's arms, and rushed with
it to the wing. The woman. thinking, no
doubt, that her child would be subjected
to the same rigorous treatment that the
dummy had to undergo, was for rushing
pell-mell after the clown her struggles
to do so when we restrained her being at
once laughable and touching. Iassured
her that the baby was as safe in the
clowns arms as her own and IN the end
that proved to be 50. emmett tossed the
baby up and down, and made pretense to
throw it at the policeman, but handled it
as tcndorly as a woman could have done
Cheers and roars of laughter arose from
the audience when they discovered that
the clown had a real baby in his arms !;
and a recall had to be complied with be
fore the child was finally handed over to
its anxious mother. Many of us regret
ted that We had not allowed the woman
to rush in after her baby, as it certainly
deprived the audience of a passage-at-
arms rarely to be witnessed on any stage.
