1t is one of the unexplainable things
of moral ethics how people decide so

FASHION NOTES.
Serge is again worn.

Serge is again worn.
Plaids are all the rage.
Skirts grow fuller all around.
The blouse bodice is in high favor.
Glossy wool fabrics are worn again.
Jerseys are more popular than ever.
The hair is worn higher in the back.
Lavender and lilac shades are revived.
Muslin and lace balayeuses are revived.
Madras plaids are worn over plain
wooden goods.
Ancient Genoesc printed cottons are
used for decorative purposes.
Riding habits are made longer, and
new color is very dark crimson.
Gray is one Of the popular colors of
this season in both woolens and silks.
Ecru lace dresses draped over rose pink
silk is favorite combination for evening
wear.
A fashionable evening dress is that
made of ecru lace and worn over a surah
of the same shade.
Bridemaids wear short trains on short
Kate Greenaway dresses in pale colors,
with bonncts to match, if the wedding is
at church.
The colors preferred for girls dressy
suits and outer garments are pigeon gray,
sapphire blue, and red in the garnet and
ruby shades.
New English walking costumes are
made with narrow skirts and great guam
titles of tucked draping, but the waists
are quite plain.
Clasps and buckles of metal, jet and
smoked pearl adorn the sashcs and dra-
peries of little children's, misses and
ladies' dressy suits.
One bird no longer suffices for trim
ming a bonnet, but several are found in
group if large, and dozen may form
the cluster if small.
Among prevailing models are the prin-
ccssc dress, with long basque added at
the back, and the polonaise, with pulled
Or gathered drapcry.
There is such variety of shapes in
nantes that every lady will have an OPP
portunity of suiting her individual taste
in the matter of wraps.
Partisan dressmakcrs insert a small
pillow hustle, stuffed with horsehair,
under the plaits of the skirt in the back,
attached to the waistband.
Plain velveteen and velvcteen brocade
is shown in many rich shades and will be
largely used for whole suits and for COM
bining with wooden or silk fabrics.
The skirts of dresses have very narrow
bands, or are attached to a cord instead
of belt, to permit the dress body to fit
close and smoothly over the waist line.
Mousquetaire gloves are worn in all
lengths from eight to twelve buttons for
street costume, and yard long or more
with very short-sleeved evening dresses
The present tendency is to elevate the
back hair. The front bang is now
graded, making three separate cuttings
necessary to get them into the required
style.
Carved wood ornaments for bonnets
are the novelties Of the season, and are
mainly of light woods of pale ecru tints,
representing tusks, griffins, dragons,
prehistoric animals, tridents and har-
poems.
A very broad triple box-plait, with
wide ribbon passing through buckles
down the center and drawn diagonally
to the side seams where it terminates in
butterfly bows, is one of the latest modes
for trimming the front of dress skirt.

GUS articles were eight hundred large pies

compound prepared expressly to give the
partakers thereof the most violent dyspep-
sia. On each pie two persimmons were
placed. There were ten varieties of pastry.
Some time before the wedding day, the
groom had sent to the bride several dress
patterns. Some were of elegant brocade,
others of the soft Grape silk, Others of deli
cate gsuze. There were numerous pieces
of rich and costly jewelry for the hair, the
neck, the ears, the arms, and the ankles.
The goods sent by the groom were to
be made up at the expense of the brides
parents. This expense is often very great,
as they must be elaborate with embroidery
of silk and gold thread and costly Jewels.

"dressed on trial" All day long the poor
little bride must be ready to receive guests,
to be talked about and inspected, but she
must not speak word. The elegance of
her treussesu is almost beyond description
with the many, many dresses of silk and
satin and fur, the exquisitely wrought
bridal collar, the dainty bridal shoes, the
embroidered bed hangings and lovely bed
clothes of silk and satin. Then there were
her pewter furnishings. such ss would an

Wizards Stocks and Work At Portland
PORTLAND. October 19th.-It is now as
serted among those claiming to know, that
the suspension of work on the Northern Pa
cifc Railroad bridge over the Willamette is
not even remotely connected with the de-
preston of Willard stocks, and at the farthest
the stoppage will prove only temporary.
Work on the immense hotel here and several
large buildings by the Oregon Terminal Com

pushed to the earliest possible completion,

AdYtces from Gualmas.

GUAYMAs, October 19sh.-Dr. Brown, who
is at present attending the sick here. has re-
ports of four deaths, two being of fever, in
the last "a hours, and some new cases; but
in all instances they have been new comers.
From District Attorney Barnett it is
learned that there is now none sick of the
fever north of Hermosillo. The nights there
are very cold.
General Carbo and Governor Luis Torres
are still at Msgdalena.
1t is rumored that Colonel Fernandez, the
Prefect, has rendered his resignation. He
has iLaugurated many improvements and en-
forced order, and among the lsw-sbiding class
his actions have given general satisfaction.
Many refugees are returning, which is a
premature and bad move, as no public an
nouncement has yet been made by the Board
of Health in regard to the town being free of
fever. Hermosillo is still affected, but deaths
are more rare.
No later news has been received of the Al.
