tennis suiting the trimming consists Of
full rufle, bordered with lace, and caught
up IN series OF shellshaped plaitings,

ornamented with rolling collar, which is
heavily embroidered at the edges. The
sleeves fit the arms closely, and are finished
with bread cuffs OF striped goods, the wrists
are trimmed with plaItings of lace; the
belt is of satin of the same shade
of blne, and is tied in front in large
loose knot. Another costume has skirt of

as to give q certain fullness to the dress /;

line of the figure the sleeves are composed
almost entirely OF lace, the wrists being
ornamented with full ruchings of the
Valenciennes, which can either be thrown
back over the sleeves or allowed to droop
over the hand and wrist.
Dotted muslins are as fashionable as
ever. The simpler these are made the
better, as they are easily soiled and require
frequent washings to keep them in pre-
sentable condition. Some of these are in.

cordingly. The adoption of very light
dresses for the street has been gradual

DISCHARGED from the "Pen."

Alfred Hertz, says the Jefferson City
Tribune, was discharged from the PeniteIi-
tiary under the three-fonrths rule yestcr-
day. He is a young man Of superior
talents, an expert penman and bcokkeeper,
and has history that should be a warn
ing to all young men. \ few years ago
he was the trusted bookkeeper Of one Of
leading Kansas City firms, but commenced
dabbling in stocks Fortune favored him
for a while and he had a neat bank ac-
count, but finally the crash came, as it
usually does, and he saw his winnings
swept away. In the vain effort TO retrieve
his fortunes, he used some of his en-
ployers funds, intending TO replace them
with his earnings, but the earnings
never came. He left the county to
conceal his shame, but was followed
to New York and captured, brought
back, tried, convicted and sentenced to the
peniteniiary. He was leader Of the choir
ut the peniientiary last winter, when it
received so much praise from visitors. He
left on the noon train yesterday for Kansas
City, where friend has given him a posi-
tion at S75 month, and We hope he will
retrieve his reputation.

The Missouri Pacif1c's Boom.

Never has freight business been so heavy
on the Pacific road as at present. The
business has developed into enormous pro-
portions since the formation Of the Gould
system of the southwest. 1t is claimed
there is no single track in the country
that such demands are made upon as the
portion OF the Missouri Pacific between
Sedalia and st. Louis. Freights are so
close together all the time that it is almost
impossible to keep the passenger trains
moving on schedule time. As soon as the
cutoff by way of Creve Ceur Lake to
Labadie is completed there will he afford
ed a measure of relief. Some idea OF the
magnitude of this increase Of traffic may
be gathered when it is stated that the
freight moved between the two points-St.
Louis and Sedalia-will probably be four
times as great this year as during any
former twelve months of the roads his
tory.
