FASHIONABLE FANCIES,

SHIRRING will be used to excess this
winter.
New French dresses are very narrow
as to the skirt, and boufant as to the
back.
SOME of the stylish fall bonnets have
the crowns entirely covered with varie-
gated foliage.
A NEW lace for trimming bonnets is
colored guipure in which q great deal OF
fine chenille thread is introduced.
A NOVELTY this year is black satin
merveilleux with gay chine flowers show
ing tulips and bouquets of lilacs, roses
and lilies.
A GREAT many shades of brown are
shown In the new stuffs, some with gold
en- tints, and others as dull and dark as
dead-leaf shades can be.
The Louis velveteen, if Of a good
quality, wears excellently, and keeps in
color SO well that for length of time it
can hardly be distinguished from silk
velvet.
FLExIBLE cloth, as the elastic cloth is
now called, is being much used for Nor
folk Jackets, which are made without
plaits, and for close-ftting out door
jackets.
THERE are some trimmings in many
colors, but cashmere beads Will probably
only be used with dresses in many colors
and In tints and shades that harmonic
with the dress.
For evening dress the haring Marie
Antoinette collar is worn, or wider roll
ing collar composed of shirring, and in
elaborate toilets these collars are wired
to keep them in place.
A NOVELTY in trimming fabrics is in
uncut velvet, in lace patterns, upon dark
satin. This is used to trim fine wooden
walking dresses. Plush will doubtless
take the place of fur as trimming.
THERE is a special fancy just now for
silver jewelry in balls and flower de-
signs. The English aesthetics use silver
embroidery and girdles of silver about
the hips with these artistic dresses.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES have become
quite features in lady's toilet. Dainty
colored borders, with either embroidered
or gotfered edges, are now just peeping
out OF the jacket bodices, while for even
ing the tiniest square of cambria is sur
rounded with filing lace, and is some
times fastened at the side of the skirt
just below the waist.
HATS of felt will probably supersede
those of long plush. They are in dark
and light cloth colors, trimmed with
ostrich plumes and bands of repped
plush in the shade of the hat. The new
pokes have high narrow crowns in the
style of the pointed crown seen on
Mother Gooses hat in the pictures of
nursery rhymes. Often the plush trim
mings of hats and bonnets are wound in
and out through Sits that are cut in the
felt.
AMONG passementeries for wraps there
are large palm leaves and other designs
which are mingled in large silk cord,
with tinsel Of copper and gold. Very
light wraps are being made in Paris, of
a cloth shade darker than cream and
lighter than any tint we have of cafe OIL
fait. This color is seen frequently In
the new passementeries, and will be used
for these light wraps, their pale color
only being relieved by the glitter of tin
sells and heavy silken cords.

THE SUNSETS GATE.

In they came, racing and tumbhng,
With faces and voices forlorn,
With hair all tossed and disheyeled,
And garments all streaming and torn.
For OH. said the weary children,
we have rambled afar tonight.
Along the path by the river,
Where the meadow-sweet flowers are white.
'tAnd we've climbed the hill of the fairies.
Where, they say, if you only wait,
You will see, on q summers evening.
The opening of sunsets gate;
"And the wondrous magic castles,
With tl1rrets of Jewels and gold,
And knights in their glitter1ng arnor,
Like the stories OF days OF old.
Eswhen, oh, such radiance, mother,
Came flooding all through the air
Everything round grew golden
Gold above, beyond, everywhere;
"And far away in the distance
AS / shaded my eyes with my Land,
Not castles we children speak of,
But the gates of the Better Land.
' But the way was hot and dusty,
And the hill was 80 hard to climb,
With tangle of briars and brushwood,
We took such weary time.
Then when we had reached the summit,
All was dreary and chill and gray;
No vestige of gold or crimson
The castles had faded away"
Then voice came from little Amy,
With happy secret confessed:
- am not strong, like the others,
So could not climb with the rest.
81 sat down beside the river
To wait, on messy stone.
could not help grieving a little,
AS [ found myself all alone;
's For 1 saw bright bands of angels,
With their wings all radiant white,
And think heard their singing;
They will come III my dreams tonight"
The mother smiled as she listened.
While she comforted and caressed,
And saw each tired wanderer
Gathered safe in the household nest.
She sat in the fading twilight,
As the murmur of day grew still,
And thought how life finds an emblem
In the children's climbing the hill.
All, the dreary ways we traverse
Through the storm and TEMPEST and heat
All, the briars that clog our footsteps.
And the stones which bruise our feet
AS we pant and tell the struggle
For the long-cherished hopes of years
AS vain, alas as the castles
The children bemoaned in their tears
We find but the chill of failure,
Disappointment, and sorrows blight,
While the evenings creeping shadows
Tell of deaths approaching night.
But, thank God, there comes so often,
To the patient hearts who wait,
The CLEAN of Gods blessed angels
Through the opening of Heavens Gate.
Good Words.

MIR. OSCAR WILDE is grand nephew
on his mothers side of the Rev. Charles
Maturin, that other strange Irishman
who was famous as much for his eccen-
trlcity as for his talent. He will be re-
membered as the friend Of Sir Walter
Scott and of Lord Byron, as familiar
figure In the literary circles of their day.

suggestion that q day be designated
for national Thanksgiving, is timely
and appropriate. and very properly
comes from the governor of the Pres
idenfs State. The nations birthday
anniversary, which was to have been
celebrated with so much spirit, was
the gloomiest that the country has
ever seen. It was time OF
deep and painful anxiety and sincere
mourning on the part OF all. Our
mournful Fourth could nov be turned
into a day of rejoicing over the pros
pective recovery OF the President,
whose attempted assassination came
so near revolutionizing the govern
ment. Patriotism and thankfulness
to the Almighty should ever 60 hand
in hand in this republic, the pro.
tector of which God has seemingly
been from the fret. Without doubt
Governor Fosters suggestion will be
early acted upon, and such spec.
taole OF rejoicing be witnessed as the
world has never seen before.

The RETURN of the old-time Salt
Lake weather-cool nights succeed
ing warm days-is right heartily vel
coined by residents and visitors. 10
years past the hot afternoons were
soneEhat tempered by the knowl,
edge that the going down OF the sun
would be succeeded by cool bracing
atmosphere, and tina. a refreshing
nights sleep under pair of Noolsn
blankets might be counted upon With
\ large degree of certainty. This sea-
son started out, however, as If this dc.
Gghttul and hesltbful fsature OF our
climate were to be chsoged. The
days were not only excessively hot
and the sultriness continued through
sat the night, much as in lower lsti-
1pdes and in the middle states, where
the heat of tie night Was even more
oppressive and exhausting to the
human system than that of the day.
More Of these sultry nights have been
experienced in Salt Lake the present
sunmer than during ali the
pat seasons for a score of years.
Within the fortnight, however, the
cool evenings and cold nights have
returned. Two pairs of heavy blan-
Kets are not an extravaganza in bed
rooms not super.heated during the
day, aud one pair is an absolute
necessity. Whatever other eastern
Innovations may come, no one will
desire al interference in the climate

most healthful cities on the continent,
and one of the most delightful places

A Captive Lobster.
TScieuce for Beginners.

From the 23d of December last to the 2d of May I kept small lobster (measuring five and sne-half inches from the front of the
 head to the extremity of the tail) alive; and
 during the whole of that period it took no
 solid food constantly tempted it with fish,
 both fresh and stale, and even with fish offal,
 which is found by fishermen to be most at
 tractive bait for Holsters with meat both
 raw and cooked with oyster, mussel and shimp; but all were alike refused. Any food placed within reach of the lobster was speedi- ly taken in it's claws and deposited on the highest ledge of stones 1t could find, as though to indicate unnlistakably its refusal The growing seaweeds kept in the vessel were not eaten. During the whole of the period above mentioned the lobster was kept in the same water, in large glazed earthen crock. From time to time took out my pet, poured of the water, washed the crock and the stones, rectifed the density of the water, and restored the lobster to it's home, and fear that it's death may have been occasioned by this needful operation being delayed too long. In no other way can I account for it's demise. Certainly it did not die of starvation, for finding it dead I had it boiled in order to ascertain its condition, and, on opening it, l found every part of the shell entirely filled with solid, ssheaIthy looking flesh. The lobster was lively enough in it's captivity and, when ever I approached it's prison, would come to the edge and spread out its claws in droll fashion. At night it was particularly active, and frequently amused itself by rearranging to its own liking the stones which had built up into cave-like recess for its accommoda- tion.

The German Navy.

The German navy Is known to be in many
 respects a copy of the British. The system
 of educating boys for sailors "befors the
 mast' was directly taken over by the former
 from the latter, and training vessels of Ger many at one, time had a place on our own na- w list From an excellent translation of an
 account of the German training system pub lished by Lieut.. H. Garbett, Royal Navy, in
 one of the professional magazines this month,
 we learn that though imitators, the naval
 officers of Germany have in this particular
 been by no means servile copyists. Boys are
 trained in the imperial navy in order that they may become, not able or ordinary se- men merely, but petty officers. warrant off cers, office writers, and artifcers. The ordi- nary ''fore-mast" ranks are recruited, as are those of the army, by compulsory enrolment and the entry of some few volunteers. The difficulty of Germany has been to get and to keep men who are good enough to be made petty officers and command others The training period lasts about three years and it is worthy of remark that boys on entry go ahoat in the training brigs at once and begin their career at sea, whereas ours are more than year in port before getting into blue
 water General education is well attended
 to, and the possession by Germany of wide
 spread school system allows of an early in-
 troduction to actual sea life, much of the
 scholastic instruction being given in winter, when the cruising season is over. Our train ing system was established 20 years ago. Now that the Education act of 1870 has been some time in working order, it may be asked if we might not beneficially teach 8 little more real seamanship to our young seamen. Gs
