SUMMER FASHIONS.

With laudable enterprise, Erichs'
Fashion quarterly for the present
Summer presents it's readers with a
beautiful chromo-lithog-aph, illustra-
tive of the Fashions of the season.
Unlike most fashion plates, which are
merely creations of the artists brain,
the present is a faithful reproduction
of actual, existent costumes, of which
not only the full descriptions, but the
prices as we'll, accompany the plate.
For the benefit of our lady readers we
append brief summary of these cos
tunes, extracted from an advance
sheet furnished by the publishers.
No. represents walking costume
in brown, of summer camel's hair
cloth and polka dot satin. The front
is of satin arranged in soft folds, with
side draperies of cameIs hair edged
with silk and tape fringe. The back
of the skirt is of camePs hair, divided
from the side draperies by broad bias
bands of satin, and ornamented with
satin bows. The basque is made in
French coat style, with broad hip
pieces Of the polka dot material, and
tastefully trimmed cuffs and collar.
Price, $47.00.
No. is a second walking dress, ap-
prOpriately named the "Sunrise," and
made of gend' arme blue French bum
ting and silk brocade. BY an ingenious
arrangement of the two materials, the
front is ornamented with the repre-
sentation of sun with rays; the side
draperies being of bunting meeting at
a point below the basque, and drawn
to either side of the central design of
the front. The basque is of bunting,
cut long and round, and appropriately
trimmed with the brocade. Price,
$4,000.
The third figure in the illustration
represents combination dress of silk
in two contrasting shades Of drab.
The underskirt in front is made Of
alternate strips of the two materials
laid in kilt plaitings, the back being
of a single shade, plain and full. The
overskirt is trimmed across the bottom
with reoers of contrasting silk, with a
full bow Of silk in two shades: the
back being of a darker shade of silk,

4 TRAMP ABROAD.

We find this inscription on the title
page of a new book by the forcible
and humorous pen Of Mark Twain.
This author is too we'll known to need
any introduction to the people as one
Of the most forcible and the most hui
mOrous writer's ON the roll of Ameri-
can literati. In this little work the
author has added to his quaint origin
aIity a history of his observations and
experiences, as we'll as the incidents
attending an extended tour on the
continent of Europe. The book con-
tains not only an engraving Of the au-
thor, the only one eXtant, but is aptly
and pointedly illustrated throughout
bv the author himself and by the best
American and European artists; and
the subject matter written in the au
thor's ingenious and peculiar style
is not only interesting and instructive
but intensely amusing and entertain
ing. Mr.. David Warren, of Kenosha
is the agent of the publishers for this
city and county, and will soon give
every family the opportunity tc
possess themselves of this val liable
and popular work.

THE TRANSFORM TION PROBLEM

This question is exciting great interest
and is one of vast Importance to the farmer
The question is: ''Shall the railroads be
controlled so that both the interests of the
stockholders and the public shall be con.
served ?" Railroad magnates have managed
the railroads so as to amass most enormous
fortunes. and their ill-gotten millions have
been filched from honest labor by oppres-
sive and unjust tariffs. Now is the time for
US to exercise the right of petition and de-
mand that our representatives in congress
enact just laws to control the interstate
transportation lines At the Farmers Meet.
ing on June II will be found petitions. and
every one present will have an opportunity
of signing one

Wonderful Spiders.
CAaf,, Canntu. Col. 7Tme..

GAUGE t"""fy, tof.' Tunes.
A short distance from Buena Vista Is a
cave inhabited by spiders. which are dii-
ferent from other spiders by reason OF
their enormous size. and quite useful to
the needy people Of that ucisity. The
cave was discovered last December by q
party OF sight-seekers. and the spiders
aud their work witnessed. Gu entering
the cave one is struck by the singular
looking webs that meet the eye. They
are worked like the webs OF other
spiders. but every hbsr is ten times as
large a. the ones woven by ordinary
spiders.
On passing OH further into the cave.
the spiders are encountered. They are
about the size Of small birds, and make
. strange sound while weaving their
web. The webs are 70 tough and the
fbrss so large. that ii is almost IN i'm
possibility to break down a web. Some
four weeks ago, while looking at the
cave. q miner got to examining the webs.
The strands were about the size Of q No.
l2 thread. and no thought that they
could DO used for thread. Having a
needle in his possession he broke Of
one OF the strands aud found that II just
fit. Sewing on . loose button to test
the efficacy. he found 1t as strong n silk
thread. and that IL answered his every
purpose. Since then the people have
locked in and carried away hosts Of the
webs. but the spiders do not appear to
object in the least. There is some talk
among capitalist Of starting . thread fac.
tory there and using the webs for thread.

the prospect Of q genial season are
thankfully hailed by all whose interests

gress has been made with the sowing Of
barley. beans and peas. as the land has
been in fine condition for the reception
OF these crops. The recent surmisss as
to the probable injury to the autumn
sown wheat plant, caused by the severity
Of the winter months, have in most
cases proved unioundsd. and tho future

development, appears 20 offer no reason.

ultimate product. After the mild rain
at the beginning Of the month and the
subsequent sunshine. the pastures have
wonderfully improved. and are now
looking green and full Of life. Scotch
advicss are equally favorable. blowing
being well advanced and barley and ost
sowing having commenced. while the
grass has been growing rapidly and
