The Cannibals' Good Points.

Since everybody, including Judas and
Nero, have their apologists, the Feejee
cannibals are now declared not to be so
black as they are painted. In the filst
place, they had, i'll the way of flesh,
nothing but each other to eat. Except
flying foxes and rats, there were no four
footed animals on the islands. The pres
ent names of their domestic animals be-
tray European origin, collie, for dog :;
pussi, for cat ose, for horse seepa, for
mutton; goti, for goat and Jullansa
koU, for beef. The wooden spoons for
human broth, and cannibal forks, eight
cen inches long, with four or five prongs.
are still in existence A berry, resem-
bling tomato in shape and color, was
the special and proper vegetable to be
eaten with long pig" One of the
chieftains lately said he would like to
see woman who would not eat her full
share, and declared that human flesh
was ever SO much better than pork
"Long pig" was sometimes made into
buildings. When friendly neighbor-
ing tribe visited another, the chief of
the latter would make raid among his
enemies, and bring back women enough
to make a feast for his visitors. Fifty
and eighty people were served at some
of these feasts. Formerly, when one
sneezed, they said, "May you club
somebody" Now they say, "Bless
you," or "May you live long /" Chief.
tains were distinguished by the number
of persons they had eaten. Before he
was converted to Christianity, one Of
these had devoured forty-three of his
fellows.

JEWELED CARRIERS.
ArtisticaIly Woven and Trimmed with
Expensive Lace-M0nOgram Clasps.
New York Sun.

Expensive LAce-MOnOSTam GiAspss
New York Sun.
The fashion for wearing jeweled
carriers has spread so rapidly that
jewelers. all keep the article in stock.
They are very expensive. A member
of conspicuous firm explains: 'sThe
rage is recent, but none the less
strong and it promises to spread in
definitely as the range is an unlimit-
ed as the purse. ALI the prominent
society women and many who are
not in society wear them. You see,
women constitutionally delight in
pretty things and their adornment is
of more interest and enjoyment to
them than anything else. If you
will come down stairs I'll show you
the stock.
There was showcase full of them,
each pair mounted in velvet box.
The pattern was the same in all as
far as the band was concerned. The
band was q full inch wide, made OF
fine elastic and covered with beauti-
fully woven silk of every conceivable
shade, pale blues and warm reds pre-
dominating. They are designed to
match the tint of the dress worn
with them. In one case two heart
shaped clasps of colored gold, inlaid
with cross-bars of torquoises and
pearls, joined the ends of scarlet
band with little frills of silk along
the edges. The price was 500. A
pair with two oval clasps of hammer
ed gold, perhaps an inch in length,
could be bought for $48, while the
cheapest pair with plain gold clasps,
was SAG.
'1ts.a curious fact" said the jewel.
er, 'that the cheap ones won't sell.
When a customer wants an elegant
garter he-I mean she--is willing to
pay for it. J"
A pair that cost $225 had two
shields with three big pearls in each
and little diamonds at the edge. AM
other pair was expensive through its
delicate lace, which was arranged in
a fluffy bow knot, with two little
gold disks clasping in the center.
At another establishment the jew
eler said: "The majority of them are
made to order. Your visit is oppor
tune, as have just finished the most
expensive pair that ever left my fac,
tory. The price is $1,000" In this
the face and pearlscolored silk band
was joined by an elaborite clasp. On
one side was the lady's monogram in
pearls; on the other the coat of arms,
with frosted storks heads, crest OF
delicately carved gold, and motto
set in chip diamonds. 1t was pres

who is to be married soon.
''Hss the demand for such carriers
increased? 2"

than last year, and grows constant

Adelina Patti.

Adelina Patti was born at Madrid.
April 8, 1843. Her full name is Adelina
Maria Clorinda Patti Nicolini. She was
educated at New York, and on Nov. "a,
1859, she made her debut as singer in
Donizetti's Lucia di LaDamernloor.
She made her first appearance at Lon
don, May IA, 1861, in La .Sonnana-
bula, and Nov. Is, 1852, appeared at
Paris in the same role. Patti afterward
sang at Paris, London, St Petersburg,
and in some of the leading cities Of
Europe with great success. She was
married at London, July %, 1868, to the
Marquis de Caux, but the union was an
unhappy one, and the parties separated.
The Marquis, although titled indi-
vidual, was not all that was to be ex-
pected, and was long virtually supported
by his wife. Not long since Patti was
married to Nicolini, who is singing with
her.

An American lady who has spent
some time in Hungary, writes enthu-
siastically about the beauty of the
people. The men are simply gor-
geous creatures-the handsomest in
the world. The first of them she
saw, the captain of Danube steamer,
was "a very god in physique" and
she soon found that he was only a
fair specimen of the race. These
grand fellows dress with taste and
magnifcence. In describing one of
them who visited her, she says: HE
came in robes as splendid as the robes
in an eastern tale. He wore the
costliest of velvets, the richest of
satins, and the rarest of furs. He
wore girdle of precious stones, and
his superb mantle was fastened across
his breast by large rosettes compos-
ed of Jewels. am willing to con-

The Dresses ut An EarPs Wedding.
From the London Truth.

iHo LCuuOu 1EulH.
At the wedding Of Lady Georgiana
Hamilton, daughter of the Duke and
Duchess of Abercorn, with the Earl
of Winterton, which took place
last Thursday at st. Georges, Han
over Square, the birdie wore the usu-
al white satin, with orange blossoms
and Brussels lace The bridesmaids,
six in number, two of whom were
sisters of the bridegroom and four
nieces of the bride, had dresses of
ruby nuns yelling, combined with
pluse of the same coler Ruby brides
maids are decided novelty, and
form an effective contrast to the ALL
pervading wilderness of the bride.
There seems to be reaction Just
now against pink, blue Or cream,
colored bridesmaids. In several re-
cent instances violet has been the
color taken into favor. The Princess
of Wales wore most becoming dress
of violet velvet. The brides mother
wore costume made of bronze COLI
ored satin and MORE, trimmed with
many-colored beads. Lady Claud
John Hamilton wore myrtle green
satin and small white straw bonnet
Lady Balfour, of Burieigh, and Lady
Middleton wore dark blue velvet, and
Lady Alexandria Murray the same
material in light blue. There was q
great preponderance of dark tints in
the dresses and bonnets, Offering q
very marked contrast to a fashionable
wedding fifteen or twenty years ago
when every possible variety of brill
liant color would have been repre-
sented. The comparison is certainl.
in favor of taste of to-day.

the browning glory of the female persona skin
