A White Rain5o.c.
TVirrinia Enterprise. I

In the midst of shower of mingled hail
and rain, about Q Il O'Clock yesterday morn
ing, there was visible for minute or two
segment of rainbow that lacked the usual
prismatic colors. It was belt Of pure white
cireiing across the misty curtain of falling
pellets Of snow and raindrops. In France
some months ago the papers had much to
say about white rainbow seen In that country
Il was spoken Of as q thing unprecedented.
Twice within the past twelve months the
phenomenon has been visible from this city.
In neither case, however, was the bow
complete semicircle. The white rainbow Is
By no means an uncommon thing In noun
famous regions, or, rather, in such regions
the opportunities for seeing the phenomenon
are much better than in valley regions, the
observers occupying elevations from which
they may see storms and mists in deep val
Ieys and gorges fsr below them, and also
NAV see the effect of even q meridian sun up
on such passing showers and rolling vapors,
whereas in level region the effect would be
below the horizon and invisible TO the in
habitants.

he seemed to understand the commands of
his owner as well as a person, and obeyed
them. He often rode with his master on
horseback, and would mount before or be-
hind, as hidden, and seemed to understand
how to manage sheep as well as man. On
one occasion he was attempting to cross some
lambs over ditch, and, not being able to
make them take the water, seized them by
the neck and led them across one at a time.
This valuable canine was shot about a month
ago by some reckless herder, the ball taking
effect in his back. The poor animal suffered
intensely for two weeks, and then died. Sam
regrets his death as much as If he had been q

WINNIPEG, July 9. To-day, the first of
the racing meetings held by the Manitoba
Turf Club, was well attended. The weather
was ell that could be desired, although the
track was slow and heavy from recent rains.
This might well be called Minnesota day.

sofa horses, Fred D. running the three min
ute. and Mike Wilkes the 2:3O race, each in
three straight heats, and without being head

horse Niger won second place in the $40
race.
The mile and half running race was won
by Fleur de Lis, she beating Forester, Geo.
Rankin and Macedonicus, who hopelessly
broke down after racing mile very credita-

There was considerable excitement at the
finish among the ManitObisns, who, by the
way, are NOT noted for their love OF Ameri-

the head of the stretch, on being approached
by the mare, responded gameIy on catching

Chicago Races.
CHICAGO, July 11.-At the sixth day OF the
Chicago Driving park the weather was warm
and cloudy, the track fast and the atten-
dance 10000. The chief attraction of the
day was special race, an attempt OF ). L.
Case's famous black gelding Jay Eye See, to
beat the best trotting record of Maud S.,
2:10A. The conditions being SO favorable
it was generally supposed he would succeed,
and before the second heat the betting was
2 to he would beat GIL. He was first
wound up, going on easy pace
three quarters Of mile and
coming home from the three-quarter pole in
3l&. In his trial he was accompanied by
running horse driven to sulky to encourage
him. The first heat, it was announced,
would only be good strong mile with no at
tempt to beat the record. The time was as
follows: Quarter 361s seconds, half 1:1211,
three-quarters LAT, mile 2:194. For the
second heat he was scored at high rate OF
speed three times before Bithers nodded for
the word. The little black fellow went away
from the wire at q wonderful speed, reached
the quarter post in 81 u seconds, a 2:05 gait;
the half in oSI, 2:061l gait; the three.
quarters in 1864, rating Of 300 After
passing the seven furlong post the flyer
slackened his speed very perceptibly and
finished the mile in 2:114, making the last
one-fourth at the rate Of 2:18. The terrific
speed to the half-m1le post was too much for
him SO early in the season, not having had
enough work to harden him for bruising
heat. Bithers attempted to take him back
at the start, but there were Gathering hoofs
of running behind him and he stubbornly
refused to check his speed, his driver fearing
to make him break by summarily taking hold
OF him. TWAS freely predicted by horsemen
in the light Of his first half mile that when
the season had advanced enough to harden
him so as to rate out full mile he would
beat 2:0S. In the third heat no attempt was
made to beat the record the time of the
quarter being 3211Ss, half IA, three-fourths

COMBINATIONS.

In soft ascendency come forth null robed
figures and figures arrayed in dotted and
sprigged Swiss, to say nothing of finer toilets
entirely of lace. Then there is the simple
prettiness of striped nuns yelling. united
with surah and lace. Meyer nuns veilings
are in Oriental colorings with all over pat
terms or brilliant unitings of great palm
leaves on colored grounds, where such dar-
ing combinations as yellow leaves on a
red surface does not alarm. These figured
patterns are made up as overdresses with an
offset of plain yelling on surah skirt. Love
ly too are challies-more closely woven than
yelling, but very thin and with mixture of
silk: deicately toned surfaces between with
small flowers and usually relieved by silk.
Canvas fabrics play part, and with their
striking colored embroideries, are piquant
in the extreme for brunettes, but hardly del
icate enough for the average blonde. Lace
and grenadine are favorite combinations:
young ladies wearing the less pretentious
qualities while their elders indulge in styles
which are really gorgeous in patterns wrought
III velvet or embossed satin. Lovely costumes
are made of India and China silks, while
Stearn's American brocades and surahs are
well represented, and it is evident that these
excellent silks have taken firm hold not only
among the wealthy who count their costumes
by the dozen, but with large class OF pur-
chasers to whom silk dress Is silk dress,
and who therefore think well before buying.
Aside from their known lasting qualities,
they are extremely handsome and varied in
coloring; the brocades taking on each hue
which fashion dictates; the striped surahs
running the gauntlet of every stylish shade,
from pale gray TO gay contrastings and made
into combination costumes they form many
of the most attractive dresses at summer re-
sorts. Velvet dresses are beautifully soft
ened by lace and contrasts between velvet
bodices and white muslin or lace skirts is ri
vailed by their white or surah waists with
thicker skirts.
