NEW YORK FASHIONABLE GOSSIP.
From the New York Mail aud Express

From the New YORK Mali aud Express.
No little one of either sex is complete
in outfit just now without Tam O'Shan-
ter cap,
Hand-painted lace, expensive enough
to be sold by the ounce, appeals to the
Itch among US.
In dinner cards there is great and end
less variety, and, like the giraffe, they
come very high.
Never before have the wraps been hand
somer or more stylish than those for the
coming winter.
Ugly spiders, as large as lite and twice
as natural, are the last thing in the way of
lace-pins.
1t is announced that the better class of
French maids no longer wear caps. This
is very important.
A 'Iangtry" bonnet is the latest. 1t is
so called because the Jersey Lily probably
never had one on her head.
The brides whose presents included
sealskin sacques are very anxious for cold
weather, so they can wear them.
Pug dogs as pets have had their pets
among the ultra fashionables, and now the
King Charles" is in favor.
Decorative art in menus has gone to the
tAteHl VI udV1ug Tiny DIus III real pluu1dge
fastened on their cards.
One has only to go to the theatre to find
out that Gainsborough hats are still in
fashion. They are to a man as red flannel
to bull.
One of the brides last week who goes to
housekeeping in December, received among
her presents an order for twenty tons of
coat.
At day weddings or receptions the dress
suit is now rarely seen, and has given way
to the frock or cutaway coat and light
trousers.
White mice ornament some of the new
bonnets, and later we may expect to see
kittens and a real mouse trap surmeuntiug
the feminine head.
At the fashionable entertainments one
hears as much French as English spoken,
especially by our American cousins just
from Europe.
Gay and gaudy patterns predominant in
gentlemens' neckwear. Styles called ORR
entail can be seen with the naked eye a
distance of two blocks.
A Murray Hill maiden boasts of having
received cards for no less that six we'd
dings, all of which took place the same
day. II never rains but it pours.

1t is now conceded that the democrats
will have control of the next house of rep
resentatives, consequently Col Marsh,
should he be elected, viii have no influence
TO obtain the usual appropriations for the
Rock Island arsenal" Therefore, as a
matter of business, if for nothing else, it
would be policy for the republicans of
Rock Island county to vote for Col. Neece
and the balance of the democratic ticket
If elected, Col. Neece viii be in position
to advance his constituents interests, as
there is now no question as to to the polit-
zeal complexion of the next house.

THE NATIONAL CONVENTION ATMILwAUKEE.
MILWAUKEE, Octi 1S.-The first national
convention of the Nantional Liquor Dealers
and Manufactures Protective Association
of the United States met here this fore
noon, Leopold Ballenburg of Peoria pre-
siding.
Congressman Duester delivered an ad-
dress of welcome, in which he said: RE
Gently desperate crusade has been inau-
gurated against the very existence Of your
fiourishing and prosperous establishments,
in which are invested hundreds of millions
of capital, upon which thousands of work
ing men and their families are dependent
"a new outbreak of fanaticism, such as
we have had occasion to witness at differ
ent periods before. 1t is the offspring of
blind passion, and. blind as it has been
born, it will run its race"
After his address a motion was carried
to exclude outsiders. The secret session
resulted in the election of f. r. Fake, of
Milwaukee, Chairman. The Chair ap-
pointed various committees. All the states
in the Union were represented, except
three The committee on organization
recommended the name of the organiza-
ton to be changed to Personal Liberty
League of the United States" to be com
posed of the various state protective as
sociations and of the National Brewers
and Distillers associations; the manage
ment to be in the hands of an executive
committee of one frem each state, one
from the distillers and one from the brew
ers' association. The committees on reso-
buttons reported resolutions with a long
preamble denouncing the prohibition party
for waging an aggressive warfare against
the cause of personal freedom, and destroy
ing legitimate business Among the reso-
lutions were the following:
Resotoed, That there now exists more
urgent necessity for the formation of
national organization capable of meeting
the enemy whenever and wherever he at
tacks our rights and business interests,
and of Strengthening our common cause
in order to save our property from con-
flscation; that our cause is the cause of
great principles and personal liberty; of
protection for men against unwarranted,
despotic usurpation of power belonging to
free citizens.
ResOLUed, That we congratulate and
thank the state of Ohio for its last victory
by which for the first time of late it has
arrested the fanatical prohibition move
ment, and that we commend its example
to the rest of the states.
A report was adopted by which an exec
utive committee was chosen, among which
were Leopold Ballenberg for Illinois, Chris
Schrutet for Kansas and Charles Kaufman
for Nebraska.
