what every woman signs for Just now is
jersey or tailor-made jacket. When
the Jersey was introduced q year or two
ago, many thought they made the lines
OF the cirque too conspicuous. Show me
the woman who thinks SO now. You
scarcely see we'll dressed woman on
the street who hasn't on Jersey of some
klnd, or jacket that ia eqnally close
nttlng. Without doubt woman who
mas good shoulders and shapely waist
displays her charms to good advantage
In this style of dress. But fat women,
and the very slim must also be fashiona
Die, and so you are given good oppor-
tunity to study the female figure in its
multiple variations. A very slim wom-
an dressed in this fashion looks ridicu-
lous. OF course her waist is to unsub-
stantial, her shoulder blades are visible
in the outline, and if she had
crooked back-as many tall, slim
women have-it is made glaringly APP
parent. Still they insist as much in
wearing eel-skin garments as their more
fortunate sisters. AS for fat women they
are too straight wasted. Some of the
Jerseys worn are made so that they have
to be put on over the head. There is a
slit several inches long that extends
down the back, which is closed by lacing.
Those most in vogue are also one piece,
but button all the way up, either before
or behind. The tailor-made jacket is
worn more than the Jersey. So great is
the demand for jackets "made just like a
gentleman's coat" as I overheard a
young lady remark in a shop recently,
that all Of the large shops and dress
making establishments have been forced
to employ tailors to do the cutting and
fitting. Well, if men must have their
trousers so tight that they can't sit
down, why may not the ladies wear
jackets SO tight that they can't get their
breath?

Wrestling Camels.

The wrestling matches between camels
is an amusement in which Turks take
great delight, although they sometimes
get due animal NAMED in the soort.
Many gentlemen keep them for no other
purpose, and one person in Smyrna kept
twenty at one time for the amusement of
his wife, who had a fondness for the
sport. The camels are trained to wrest.
ling when quite young; they exhibit
great dexterity in throwing their antaSo-
mist, and seem to take much pleasure iu
the fray. We had young one on board
only 8 month old, and. having been
born under the flag, he was
christened "Uncle SAM" One of the
Turks amused himself on the voyage
making "pehlevan" of him, and when
he was six weeks old he was more than q
match for his teacher, using his legs,
neck and mouth with much dsxterity,
and exhibiting such wonderful strength
in SO young thing that he became a vec ~
rough playmate. and frequently hurt the
men on deck by throwing himself on
them and knocking them down. This
feature seems to be natural to the camel,
for when two strange ones meet together
where there are any females they wrestle
for supremacy, and the one conquered
ever after acknowledges his inferiority
by not so much as daring to look at a
female. Unlike the amusement of bull
batting, this wrestling is harmless
psstime, though the animals sometimes
get their legs broken, or are stiff for
some time after with their bruises.
Well trained animals seldom injure each
other, being taught to throw their antag-
onist by getting his neck under the fore
leg (the right and then throwing the
whole weight of their body on him and
bringing him to the ground.

How Elephants Multi ply.

The elephants are, of all known AMI
mails, the slowest to increase in number.
At the earliest, the female elephant does
not become parent until the age Of 80
years, and only six young are capable of
being produced during the parental
period. which appears to cease at 80 years
OF age, the average duration of elephant
life being presumed to BE- about 100
years. But it is most interesting, as
well AS important, in view of any specu-
lat,on on the increase of species and on
the question of competition among
the races of animal life, to reflect
that, given favorable conditions
OF existence, such as suf-
ficiepcy of food, a freedom from disease
and from the attack OF enemies, the e.e-
plant race, slow as it is, would come in
II few thousand years to stock the entire
world with its huge representatives. On
the uata offered by the foregoing details
OF the age at which these animals pro-
duce young and of their parental period,
it is easy to calculate that in from 740 to
$50 years, 10, 0OO, 900 elephants would re-
main to represent natural population.
Ii such q contingency awaits even .
slowly increasing race such as the ele-
phants unquestionably are, the powerful
nature Of the adverse conditions which
have ousted their kith and kin from .
place among living quadrupeds can
readily be conceived Popular Sci
ence Monthly.

STONED 10 Dsath.

1t will be remembered that old Win,
nemucca, the aged chief of the Piutes,
died ON the 21st of last month; that pre-
vious to his death be accused his young
squaw OF having bewitched him and
made him sick. and that he ordered her
to be stoned to death. The young squaw
was ordered to 60 to spring aud wash
herself, that she might appear before the
Great Spirit in the happy hunting
grounds in . condition of becoming
cleanliness. She feigned obeyance. and
knowing her fate attempted suicide by
hanging, but the attempt was frustrated
by watchful Piute, who cut her down
and brought her back to miserable
realization Of her impending fate. Since
that time, until . few days ago, it has
not been positively known what became
of her, though she disappeared. The
facts concerning her disappearance have
now come to light, and are related by .
half-bresd called Grizzly John, who 10
fully acquainted with the circumstances
OF her death. He was An eyewitness Of
the horrible scene, which he described
TO Gazette reporter in passabls En-
