FASHION NOTES
Embroidery on silk gauze continues to be
used as an elegant trimming to plain and bro
caded silk grenadines or gauzes.
Tufts, aigrettes of ostrich feathers, and tiny
birds are favorite trimmings upon elegant
evening dresses of silk or satin.
The demi-season dresses of wool this spring
are decidedly quiet in style, tailormade CO.'S
tunes being so much in the ascendant.
Ribbons and lace, bows and ends gimps and
fringes still reign paramount for trimmings,
and make the simplest toilet attractive.
Transparent muslins are shown with straw
berries, raspberries, laurel, and arbutus bios
SONS, carnations, sweet-brier roses, and moss
buds in groups scattered on a colored ground.
Many OF the rich, dark -hued spring woollens
in monochrome are sold with borderings.
French cashmeres especially are very hand
some, with deep bands Of the same embroidered
in silk in Grecian, Swiss, floral, or Renaissance
designs.
Beads of all kinds, and sequins, are almost as
profuseiy used as over; 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 orna-
ments on white or pale-hued evening dresses
Some Of the new patterns in straw lace bon
nets are almost as intricate and delicate as Gui-
pure lace designs These bonnets are light,
airy, and very attractive. Their garnitures
are correspondingly light and ethereal. Soft
tinted silk mulls and gauzes are used as well
as wreathes of fine flowers mingled with deli
cate vines.

An IMPORTANT ORGANIZATION.

There has been organized in this city q
society for which there has long been an
urgent need and which will accomplish
much good among the class of citizens of
which It is composed, viz, the business men
1t is known SO the Merchants
Protective Association and its object is
mutual protection agai st class Of custo :.
mers who are habitualy uupunctuaI in
meeting their obligations.
The first meeting was held on the 18th
of December aud was attended by about
twenty Of the principal business men in
the city. A temporary organization was
then effected by electng Mr.. Z. B. Petit,
temporary president. The second meeting
was held on the eth, at which Mr. Petit
was elected permanent President, Mr..
j. A. Golds'ine, Vice-P President;
and Mr.. Egbert Smith, tenn
porary Secretary. The third meeting
WAS held on the nth instant, and at this
Mr.. George Christman was elected Score.
tsry and Mr. Egbert Smith Treasurer.
The organization is now in hourshing
condition; is receiving accessons to us
membership at every meeting, and
holds regular monthly meetings, at
which each member makes reports of any
new accession to the list of dead beats,
and at which other matters in which the
merchants AS such are interested are dis
cussed. Another of its objects, and a
very worthy one, indeed, is to extinguish
any Jealousy existing among business men
and to promote among them friendly feel
ing and harmonious action for the mutual
good The organization ought to grow
until every merchant in the city, large and
small is a member of it, and then the
chief worry of the merchant, the non.
paying customer, will become known to
all and be guarded against, ond the credit
system will be restricted 10 such as are
known to be responsible aud puno,nal

The TuttIe Family.

Getting Ready for the Grand Reunion.
 A meeting to make arrangements for a grand reunion of the Futile family at High Rock, Aug 15, was held at the law office of Dxight W. & G. J. Futile in this city yes- terday forenoon. William Futile signed the colony constitution in June of the year that he arrived in America. It is estimated by George F. Futile, whose genealogical work
 on the family will be published about Sep
 tember 1st, that the dead and living de-
 scendants of the original Futile number
 about 5O, 900. There are said to be between 4, ,O0O and 5 0O0 living descendants scattered
 over the country, considerable portion of them residing in this State. Two or three thousand are expected to be present at the coming reunion in August. Two previous reunions have been held in 1872 and 1873. the latter took place at Waverly Grove.
 A commmittee of arrangements on the coming reunion was appointed as follows | Samuel G. Davidson of Bethany, chairman; John F. Futile, Dwight W. Futile, Grove J Futile, H. M. Beecher, P. B. Futile, New Haven; Dr. Futile, Naugatuck; Edmund l Futile, Meriden; A. A. Marks, Riverside.
 MT. Davidson said they were furnished the
 use of the grove and many conveniences witt | which the place was provided free of cost 1 It was understood that the visitors should bring their own refreshments. This wouli 1 not be practicable in the case of parties com l ing from long distance, but there woull | probably be an abundance for all. It wa
 hoped to have addresses by good speaker | and other interesting exercises, All commu
 nications in regard to the gathering shoult
 be addressed to Dwight ". Futile.

The SIOcum Case.

Sam Benton. the New Haven MuIattOs,
 Denial.
 Sam Benton, the New Haven negro who is in jail at White Plains, charged with brutally outraging Miss Slocum at Salem last Tues day, expresses no alarm regarding his posi- ton. He is ight-colored, bright, intelli- gent mulatto weighing about 18O pounds and is 3S years of age. He was well dressed in a suit of dark clothes He declares he was never in Salem in his life and that for sev- eral months he has been working in OoIe's livery stable in Danbury. "On the Monday before the day of the assault did some work for Mrs. Griffith in that town. At 6:30 o'clock Monday evening went to Waterbury and stopped at the house of Mrs. De Shields, a colored woman, who keeps 8 boarding house. worked for her all Tuesday and Wednesday. On Tuesday morning at the hour I was said to be in Salem was in telegraph office in Waterbury, where I sent two dispatches one to George Young, colored man at Dan- bury, and the other to New Haven to Mrs. Mary Norton, asking where my wife was. I telegraphed to Mir. Young to send me some money he owed me. Thursday went back to Bridgeport. was brought here yester- day"
 Benton answers very nearly to the deScrip- tion given by Miss Slocum of her assailant. His trunk was searched and among the arti- cles found in it were 8 revolver and three letters from his wife in New Haven, dated June 5, 15 and 21. George Slocum, brother of Miss Slocum, thinks Benton is not the man wanted
