None Of them have seen service since
the war. Averill and Pleasanton both
resigned soon after peace was declared,
and Rosser's term of service expired when
he was captured near Richmond shortly
after the surrender Of Lee and Johnston.
The meeting between the three was
rather an interesting one. 1t is not often
that three such dashing cavalry command
ers of war that closed nearly twenty
years ago, come together now in social in
tercourse. ALI held the rank of no ajor
general and all fought many important
engagements. and all were brave and skill
full soldiers. and all, believe, were seri-
ously wounded. Rosser carries about with
him nine scars-one sabre cut over the
right eye, one bayonet-gash on che fore
head, shot in the foot, one in the knee.

graduated at West Point.


Pleasanton is the oldest Of the three
There is no mistaking the education and
training he has had. They are shown in
every look aud motion. Though not large
nor tall, he is so erect and precise that he
would be taken anywhere for soldier
and commander. The General tells me he
has lost some of his faith in bis blue glass
theory, but believes it will yet be adopted
by the scientific world. He is seventy
seven years old and has always been sort
of bookworm, though he held some sort
of command in the Pennsylvania militia
at one time during the war.
Averill looks almost as old as Pleasan-
ton. having suffered good deal from his
wounds. He is a heavy. chunky-looking
man with a soldierly moustache, and is
very unpretentious. He and Rosser are
great friends.
Rosser has really romantic history,
and is romantic. looking man; over six
feet tall, and probably weighs over 275
pounds. His money has been made il
railroading in the Northwest.
Fortune takes strange turns. and here
is one of them. What welcome thing

would have been to Rosser in 1865. To-
day they are knocking at the door of Con-

pay Of $4,000 year, while Rosser is
prospective millionaire.

Shoes and Stockings.

Low shoes, with black or very dark
blue, brown, or red stockings. will be
worn out-of-doors more than they have
been at any previous time. These shoes
have rounded (not pointed) toes. thick
er soles than are used for house shoes,
and the preference with ladies who fol-
low English fashions is for low heels,
though French heels are still worn in
moderation. Patent-leather remains in
favor for such shoes, but will be more
often used merely for the vamp, while
the uppcrs are kid, instead of having
the whole of patent-leather. These are
made to lace through six sets of eyelets
quite far up on the instep, or else they
are cut lower and finished out with a
broad tongue. Black kid Innings are
used by many dealers, AS light Innings
are soon soileu by colorcd stockings.
Slippers for the house are cut very low
in front, and have their box toes more
sharply pointed than shoes. What is
called the slipper tie, and also the sailor
tie, is q pretty slipper that laps slightly
from the sides, and is tied through n
or two sets OF eyelets; this is liked for
house slippers in the daytime.
More dressy slippers. to be worn with
black silk stockings on full-dress occa-
sions, are of kid, with a jetted medal
lion cut on each, or with spaces cut out
in diamond shapes and beaded; these
are also made of bronze kid, of white
kid with pearl for brides, or of the silk
or satin Of the dress material. For use
in bedrooms are slippers of red moroc-
co, or of alligator skin either black or
colored, or else of ecru kid. Walking
boots are of French kid, or else they
have patent-leather vamps. Tips of
patent-leather just across the toes are
no longer used, as the vampis enlarged
to look like a slipper in which rests the
upper boot of kid, or of colored pru-
nclla to match the dress in color, or Of
checked cloth, or, if for very handsome
boots, the uppers are of satin Francois
embroidered with Jets that are finely
cut. Buttoned boots are most used,
though there is 8 renewed effort to IN
troduce lace shoes for walking. En-
tremely high French heels
are not put on walking
boots, the toes are q compromise
between the pointed and square shapes
occasionally seen, the soles are light
but substantial, and in every way there
is a return to sensible shoes of ample
size and easy fit, which give, not only
comfort, but symmetry to the foot. The
ecru canvas shoes remain in favor for
country use.
Black stockings are still commended
with dresses Of all colors and all occa-
sions. Those OF silk orof brilliant isle
thread with a slight clocking on the
sides are chosen in preference to mors
deliberately decorated stockings. Very
dark navy blue, brown and red stock
inos are The colors most in favor: tho
latter arc not SO fashionable as former
ly, but in nice qualities Of English
thread they wash 50 well that ladies
are loath to give them up. Black stock
ings are still worn by children in pref
erence to those of any color.-Harper',
Ba:ar.
