Bernhardt's Costly Clothes.
From the London News.J

ltrom tne LonQOn N6Ws.1
 A lawsuit affords some curious information as to the prices paid ,or demanded, for the costumes of actresses upon the Parisian stage. Mile Sarah Bernhardt is the defendant in the case, and, ; as we gathar, objects to paying some six or seven hundred pounds for the dresses worn by her in''La Dame aux Game lias." So far as the insular mind can decide, the gowns appear to have been out of all pro- portion with the goodness of the play. La Dame aux Camelias" is harply a drama on which M. Alexander Dumas would now plume himself, but Mile. Bernhardt appears to have no limit as to the fine feathers in which she desires to be clad. M Dumas play shows us an unspeskable woman and an abiect young creature, but 1t would seem that magnificent haberdashery is needed to drape this drama of to-day or rather of the day be- fore yesterday All this is not little curious to the English eye That it should cost B large sum of money to dress the personagss of Shakespearianr play in which the men wear 'tsteel-pen' or s'clawhammer' coats it should be necessary for the ladies to wear gowns which have cost eighty or a hundred pounds apeiee is by no means so clear. Mile. Mars always permitted the theatrical tailor to dress her in whatever costume he wished, provided that it became her. Mile. Bernhardt appears to have come to the con- slusion that some neat arrangement lin black" or symphony in blue" is not calcu- lated to display that particular form of beauty anvied by ladies less inclined to forgive costly mouera se-as Gia~- superb rendering of the part Costly robes have ~1--opa been a feature of the French theater, and there seems some little risk that they will be adopted here unless reaction sets in against the fashion of profuse decoration.

The TrIcycIe in JournaIism

lcfOm Q AonQou LetCer.I
 Walking down the Strand this afternoon heard the tinkle of warning, and imme- diately there passed by at rapid speed 8 machine which at first took for new style of knife-grinder's barrow. It is, however, one of the new newspaper tricycles which the proprietors of the Evening Standard are using to rapidly distribute their papers among the newsboys. I am told the experiment answers well. The machine will easily carry 400 to 500 papers ,snd on the well paved wood and asphalt streets of London can get about more quickly than the horse and light cart generally used here. It may interest American wheelmen to know that the tricycle. was after the pattern of what Is known in England as the ''Humbert" with two equal sized driving wheels, while the rider sits bi- cycle fashion on the backbone behind the axle. The sides are partially covered in with canvas stretched on framing, upon which is painted the newspapers advertisement or can be used for the contents bill. In front of the rider is light platform whereon the papers are carried. London ne Tsboys seldom go to newspaper offices for their papers, but are almost invariably supplied from the light news carts which take certain rounds and stop at fixed points, street corners, ,or railway stations to supply their customers. There is no doubt that within certain radius the work of distribution can be quite rapidly performed with tricyc cles and at cheaper rate.

The Star Route HearinG-Attempt to Corner Lawyer COOk-H1s Belief i'm Gufteau AccOmplfces.
 WASHINGTON, March 11-In the Star route investigation this morning Brewster
 Cameron, of the department of justice, cross-
 examined W. A. Cook. one of the Star route
 counsel, and endeavored to show that
 recent publications in the New York Sun came from his office. There was absolute silence in the room. A moment, and-the eyes of the cross-examiner lighted up as if he was certain of his position. Billy" Cook then, with the art of the noted criminal lawyer which he is, said: ''We will let the Attorney General speak upon that subject. and drew from his pocket receipt in full for all the papers in the Attorney Generals own hand. Mr. Cook adhered to his theory that Guiteau had fellow conspira- tors. He said that several days before the assassination Guiteau went into gunsho on Ninth street with three men, and inquired for pistol; that he (Cook) furnishe the District attorney with an affidavit to this effect, but that it never was used in the trial.
 The witness thought that the prose- cntion selected the weakest case. "Had you been those twelve men on the jury what would have been your verdict ?'' My yer dict would have been that the men indicted were not proven guilty" He gave no advice in the prosecution after Brewster became General because he did not think it would have availed anything.
 ''Did you return to the government off, cers the papers belonging tn them and which were in your possession ?' 'I did and here is the Attorney Generals receipt for them" Witness produced the Attorney Generals receipt.
 Witness stated further that no papers be- longing to the prosecution ever reached the defendants through him.
 'sDid you see the article recently published in the New York Sun on Star route matters?'' s'I did,
 'sWere those papers ever in your posses sion?" ''They never were" (These are the papers rehecting upon Congressman Ellis of Louisians.)
 The remainder of the testimony of Mir. Cook related to details of Star route matters we'll known to the country. Adjourned.
