"CRUSHED; on, WHOSE ARE THEY"
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1884-02-09
A Live Moose.

Early last week two Indians. or half breeds,
came to the city bringing with them a tame
moose They captured it when it was but four
months old somewhere in the wide forests that
lay north and east of lake Chegantic and stretch
away to Moosehead lake on the east and to the
region traversed by the Intercoonial railroad
on the north. tits now sixteen months old and
full fifteen hands in height at the shoulders 1t
looks to be as large as an ordinary mich COW, and
would weigh probably 800 to 900 pounds. The
moose sheds its horns in the fall and has no ant
lers at this season of the year. 1t is very finely
formed animal. The shoulders stand up so high
that they give it much the appearance of the
zebra and sacred bull so often'seen in the shows,
and which Mr. Fort, of Knightstown. Ind, so
successfully introduced upon his farm near that
city, Hyatt Frost, the proprietor for many
years of the Van Amburg show, did the same
a farm owned by him near the little village of
Harrisburg, in Fayette county, Ind But to re-
turn to the moose; the height of his shoulders,
or properly the fatty cushion on top of the
shoulders, the large ears and the broad face,
extended upper lip and wide, fattened nostrils,
give the animal peculiarly of expression that
distinguishes it very strongly from any other
member of the deer family The Indians who
own this specimen were dressed in the full In
dian costume, but all was wrought out of warm
and good material, wooden goods and deer skim
thus preserving savage dress with the comforts
of civilization They took in many a dime at
Sherbrooke, and then left for Montreal, where
they are soon to reap rich harvest from the
thousands of visitors who throng that city dur
ing the carnival The moose subsists on
the buds and tender twigs of the
trees and bushes. An arm-load of
green brush furnishes him a good
repast. When the great SHOWS fall the moose
begin to run in circles, passing by and through
little thickets of the peculiar kinds of bushes
which they like best, thus keeping their food
within reach, no matter how deep the snow falls
The Indians and half breeds force them out of
their paths when the snow is crusted over. The
poor moose break through the crust and are I'M
able to get away, and fall easy victims to the
murderous attacks of their hungry pursuers.

THE FASHIONS.

Feather fans still maintain their hold on pub
lie favor.
Heavy arm,re brocades are used for outside
jackets.
The first importations of spring millinery are
of colored straws in small bonnets slightly larger
than the capotes worn during the winter, and in
round hats of most varied shapes.
Velvets or velveteens are the choice for dressy
suits for boys from two to nine years of age.
Dark blue, brown, green and black are the colors
principally used The velvet jacket with the
kilt is eutaway, and shows the vest beneath.
Quadrille lace with large square meshes of
eeru thread is one of the novelties, and is en-
riched by having the meshes near its edges filed
i'll with silver or with gold threads. Tinsel
threads of red and blush gold are also used for
making blocks or chesks in these square meshes
of ecru lace.
The latest style of plaided fabrics are worn
this season by ladies' who never ventured to
adopt them before, for the reason that the new
patterns. unlike most plaids, are very tasteful,
and blend with plain materials, with good effect,
having solid grounds simply crossed with hair
lines of white. gray, blue, or ruby.
Ladies who have liking for hats worn over
the forehead, will be glad to learn that the old
favorite the English walking hat, is likely to be
revived this spring. The brm is about the same
as of old rolling high and close on each side,
but the crowns to most OF the new shapes are in
the slopng Langry style, or else are high and
square.
A pretty evening dress for young girl is
made of pale pink nuns yelling. The skirt is
adorned with narrow pink foulard flowers
wrought in a delicate floral embroidery in Pom
padour patterns. Two of these narrow hounces
go all the way around the skirt, and those on the
front breadths reach nearly to the belt. The
full Vatican tunic, enhanced by similar en-
broidery, is caught up at each side with vari-
colored satin ribbons exactly matching the
shades in the embroidery Pink foulard bre-
telles, worked to match, descend to the turn of
the bodice, which is deeply pointed and laces up
the back

Thin. Wirx Men the Bravest.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
History no doubt gives color to the idea that
fat men are not, as a rule, brave. Falstatf was
a fat man, he was conspicuous coward Major
Monsoon was likewise eorpulent; his gallantry
lay in the direction of chickens. There have
been brave fat men, of course; witness Pickwick
as courageous gentleman as ever faced a
widow The heroes of the world have, however,
undoubtedly been wiry men, not necessarily
scarecrows but men without an unusual or un-
wieldy proportion of adipose tissue Had the
living skeleton, now being sued by his recently
made bride, been fat man, he would undoubt-
eddy have wilted, and permitted himself per-
haps to be carried off in clothes basket. Being
a skeleton, he is a man of valor, and no bride of
a day shall trifie with his emaciated affec-
tions. Anatomically speaking, the skeleton man
is all grit He proposes to fight it out to the Bit
ter end if he las to pawn his bones to pay coun-
sci fees.l

Information comes from celebrated modiste
that lace dresses of every description will be
more than ever the vogue the coming summer.
For those who fancy the style will be Mother
Hubbard dresses, all of black lace over surah
either of black, or in gay-colored foundations.
These dresses, in white or black lace, it is said,
are not to be made of piece lace but of that
about eight or ten inches deep, laid row upon
row, Killed or slightly gathered, is preferred.
Besides the Hubbard dresses will be those with
lace ruffled skirts and pointed bodices of silk
yelled with net of pattern matching the design
of the lace rules; and Oriental net and lace will
lead in popularity. Round waists will also be in
high favor here, and belts and long ends of satin
ribbon will add their always graceful and pretty
finish to these. Foundation silks and satins of
light quality, plainly figured, and in every con
ceivable shade of color, can now be bought for
from 80 to So cents yard, thus making the
ideal lace dress, once such a rare luxury an
easy possibility to young ladies who aspire to
this exquisite toilet

but it is difficult to make our people think so.
In England it is estimated, we may be safe in
saying. above all others. 1t is sold there in the
markets by tons, and there is no reason why it
should not here, as we have the same facilities
of producing it with the English. Some say
that the heavy moist British atmosphere makes
it more tender than ours But why should it
not be the case with the lettuce, celery, etc?
There is nothing easier to raise. Stick some
pieces of the plant along the low places of
upon our farms, and it will grow rapidly, and,
unless it is exttrpated by wholesale gathering it
will go ON producing for generations, and will
always supply early crops for the market, and
will sell fast enough.

Real cleanliness becometh holy people, but
hiding that which is not clean by coloring our

1t is a lovely sight to behold innocent children;

Thus oppression in the extreme appears terri

remains to be oppression and when the smallest
degree of it is cherished it grows stronger and
more extensive. To labor for perfect redemp-

business of the whole family of Christ Jesus in
this world.

Infants Outfits.
BROOKLYN Eagle.

There is very little change in the style of
making infants outfits. Formerly a mother
dressed her babe in pure white, and that of the
finest and sheerest quality until it was at least
four or five years of age. Now a child of two
years has dresses of a warmer texture, such as
cashmere, merino, etc, and into these touch of
color is often introduced which makes the little
one look more comfortable while older ones
wear fiannes, cashmeres and merino in all
colors. Infants dresses are made of nainsook
and linen lawn, with tucks, and trimmed with
lace and embroidery, and have sleeves. The
robe style of making infants dresses is not so
popular as formerly. They are now more often
trimmed above the hem at the lower edge with
embroidery. insertion tucks, puffs, or lace. The
skirts, which are gathered to the yokes, are long
and very full The newest cloaks for infants
are of the white surah, in Mother Hubbard style,
with yokes of the finest embroidery and cuffs
to match The long, loose cloaks are usually
made of white or light-colored cashmere and are
trimmed with embroidery. There are other
handsome cloaks made of ottoman and brocaded
silk For summer they are usually of pique,
either plain or embroidered, Some of these are
shaped like long, double cape, but the newest
and those most liked are of the Mother Hubbard
style, with the straight breadths shirred into the
yoke, and the long sleeves shirred at the wrist
The prettiest caps for babies are those of the
closely fitting cottage shape, which are made of
embroidery that is done in an open pattern,
representing wheels or stars that resemble the
designs in open braid laces. Bows of satin rib
bon are added at the top and at the back The
pretty French caps are as popular as ever and
are worn by both girls and boys. There are
misunderstanding crocheted jackets of white
pale blue or pink zephyr in pretty designs, with
border in shell pattern. Dainty little hoods of
worsted with silk netting over them are also pro-
vided for their comfort, and little soft socks of
zephyr or silk are in colors tomatch Microscopes

Your questions of morals and points of law
Are not for such chaps as he;
He'll laughingly tell you ''Je ne sails pas"
Or answer them all with ''Oui."
But story of wood and lake, and stream,
He eonneth it line by line,
And he knoweth the haunts of trout and Dream,
And the otter's faintest sign.
He chatters away in his Norman tongue,
SO fast you can never guess
What words are hid in the gutturals fun
From his lips in a wild excess.
Then hurrah! for the bold Canadian laG
With his rosy and cheerful face!
He is why and tough and warmly clad
And belongs to a hardy race.
And true to old mother church is he;
Each holiday fast and feast
He keeps devoutly, and hopes to be,
Some day, a black-robed priest.
A black-robed priest, with raiment fine
And ponderous girth of waist;
With choicest of meats and best of wine
To please his sanity taste.
Yet blaex-robed friar will scarcely be
This rollickng boyish clown,
But habitan of the old degree,
Or a carter in the town.
