Fashion Notes.

Ribbons and lace, bows and ends.
gimps and fringes still reign paramount
for trimmings, and make the simplest
toilet attractive.
Beads of all kinds and sequins are al
most as profusely used as ever; pearl
or mOther-Of-pearl sequins hanging in
lattice-work of silk cords or pendant
from strands of chenille fringes are
among the most effective ornaments on
white or pale hued evening dresses.
Transparent muslins are shown with
strawberries, raspberries, laurel and ar
butus blossoms, carnations, sweet.briar
roses and moss-buds in groups scattered
on colored ground. Usually this back
ground is of pale tint, very delicate
tea rose or primrose yellow being ia
vorite color; but these bright-hued
fruits and flowers look very well against
backgrounds of dark olive or brown.
Many of the rich, dark-hued spring
wOolens in monochrome are sold with
borderings. French cashmeres espec-
tally are very handsome, with deep
bands of the same embroidered in silk,
in Grecian, Swiss, floral, or Renais-
sance designs, either raised or open
work. These, and other fabrics of the
same kind, have sometimes pattern bor-
dering of silk interviewer with the ma
terial, giving the effect of lace or en-
broidery. The demi-season dresses of
wool this spring are decidedly quiet in
style, tailor-made customs being SO
much in the ascendant.
Embroidery on silk gauze continues
to be used as an elegant trimming to
plain and brocaded silk grenadines or
gauzes. A charming dress of this kind
is composed of narrow ruffles of silk
embroidered gauze of pale pink hue,
the corsage reaching far below the hips,
being of pale pink ottoman silk, trimmed
about the square neck and upon the
edges of the elbow sleeves with the en-
broidered gauze. A wide gauze scarf,
richly embroidered, is draped so as to
conceal the joining of the silk corsage
to the gauze skirts. A black gauze
toilet, embroidered very deliberately in
silk, and further garniture of jet
beads, with black ottoman silk jersey
bodice, also embroidered to match, Is
made up in a similar manner.
Some of the new patterns in straw
lace bonnets are almost as intricate and
delicate as Guipure lace designs. These
bonnets are light, airy, and very at
tractive. Their garnitures are cor
respondingly light and ethereal. Soft
tinted silk mulls and gauzes are used,
as well as wreaths of fine flowers
mingled with delicate vines. A pretty
little French bonnet in the "Olivia"
shape of cream-colored straw lace, ex-
exhibited this week, is lined with pink
ish mauve faille, and trimmed outside
with a wreath of heliotrope blossoms
and cluster of crushed roses set at
the left side. The last row of lace ut
the edge of the brim is studded with
tiny mock pearl and heliotrope beads,
and the scarf strings, of cream-colored
lace, are dotted with the same bead
work, giving rioh effect to the appear
ance of the bonnet.-N. Y. Post.

Last summer when the Inidel
Convention was in session at Wat
kins Glen, N. Y, they reported that
the churches were dying all through
the land and their shout was 'down

Cabe, the Secretary of the Church
Extension Society, saw their state
ments while travelling and stepping
into a telegraph Office sent to the
Convention this message, "All hail
the power of Jesus name, the Meth

the Chaplain, "Let US hear less of
Jesus and more of his works" Now

to show those men more OF Jesus

Miss Jennie Sheldon. "The Infant Glass

as to bring forth a hearty applause from

PENSION CROOKS PUN
LSHED.

Late Friday afternoon scene was
quietly enacted in the United States
Court that should not escape publicity.
About a month ago Alva M. Hutch
ings and Susan G. Hutchings, his
wife, of Pittsburg, Shiawassee county,
were arrested and charged with being
guilty of filing false pension claims.
The proof was clear that Mrs. Hutch
ings had filed three false pension
claims and forged marriage record,
and that her husband, to aid and abet
the fraud, had committed perjury and
connived at the forgery Of a marriage
record. These were serious crimes
under the United States law, and the
maxium punishment for one of the
defendents could have been 40 years
and for the other 20 years. Hutch
ings and wife therefore saw that their
only hope was in enlisting the aid OF
Government officials, pleading guilty
and getting off with light sentence.
Mrs. Hutchings is Sc years of age, a
Sunday school teacher and alleged
moral leader in the town at Pittsburg,
while heI husband is well-to-do'
farmer. The God -and-morality rack
ct was therefore worked for all it was
worth in their behalf and yesterday
they pleaded guilty and as a result
escaped with fines of $I5o and SIoo
respectively. After Judge Brown had
passed sentence on the twain, Squire
Pitts, one of the pillars of Pttsburg,
invoked benediction upon the
Court and all concerned for the
lenient treatment of his guilty neigh
bors. 1t was before this same
'Sqnire Pitts that Mrs. Hutchings
perjured herself in her attempt to
defraud the Government. Some
comment is indulged on the leniency
shown this couple, who are both in
telligent' and fully understood the
serious nature of their Crime, yet de-
liberately altered marriage certifi-
cate and perjured themselves for the
purpose of drawing pension. Even

DEWITT-HALL.

Will you allow a correspondent
space for short but truthful descrip-
tion of delightful social event which
took place on the first day of March
at the residence of Geo. S. Hall, of
Owosso township, viz. the marriage
of their daughter, Lila to Theodore
+. Dewitt, of Middlebury.
The day was q splendid one, in
fact the first really fine day of the
season. The crowd which assem-
bled in the parlors of the BRIDES
parents at about II o'clock, was COM
posed of relatives, friends and ac-
quaintances Of the bride and groom
and though not an exceedingly large
crowd, was certainly good natured
one as shown by the patience with
which they waited for the proper
time for the ceremony to begin.
After a short but very impressive
marriage ceremony by the Rev. Chas.
Simpson, of Vernon, (who by the
way is former resident of this neigh
borhood and the Captain under whom
the groom and his father served in
the army, and few touching and
earnest words from the groom S father,
followed by the usual congratulations,
the guests were seated at the tables
which were indeed fairly groaning
with delicacies .-and here let me add
your humble correspondent was able
to play his part if nowhere else. But
why enlarge upon the pleasures OF
this festive occasion, suffice it to say
that the happy couple boarded the
2 o'clock train for a somewhat ex-
tended tour in the eastern part Of the
state.

received, together with the names of
the givers:
