Spring Dresses.

The serges, Cheviots, and bison
cloths sold in sheer qualities for about
81 a yard in double widths are the
popular fabrics for dresses for general
wear; for the street they are chosen in
quiet dark brown, dim blue, and beige
shades, while for the house the prefer
ence is given to white, cream or fawn-
coIored serges, and tailors are also max
ing them in rose pink and pale blue
shades. White braid interviewer with
gilt or silver, and white wool lace, are
the trimmings for such dresses. In most
shops there are pattern dresses, III
boxes, made of serge or yelling that has
several yards of bordered stripes for
trimming, or else it is accompanied by
wool lace to be put on plainly or in
fiounces, or to represent full skirt by
being single deep founce. The mo-
hairs and aIpacas that English tailors
and fashionable mod;stes import in
fawn, beige, pearl gray, and ecru shades
have appeared in the large dry goods
stores, where they are also shown in
white grounds with black, red, brown,
or blue diamond-shaped figures, or with
stripes. The colored mohairs are meant
for travelling and walking dresses to take
the place of cloth tailor suits, but last
spring, when they were especially novel,
fashionable young women wore them to
afternoon receptions, and used them for
visiting dresses.
The changeable surahs combined
with velvet-fgured surah are the fash
ionable silks for spring and summer.
The basque and lower skirt are figured,
and the dranerieS ara Of the ohop0ooblo
surah without figures. There are also
many of the taffeta silks that are change
able, and instead of velvet figures these
have tiny specks or larger dots brocaded
all over them. Again, there are narrow
stripes or bars of velvet in Roman colors
on gros grains of light quality that are
to be used as lower skirts made quite
plain without pleats. Harper's Bazaar.

Rates of Postage.

The Post-ofice Department at Wash
ington has received inquiries from all
quarters as to the new legislation in the
Post-otfice Appropriation bill. It was
not possible on account of the work
done in conference to ascertain what the
changes as to postage were until the bill
had been officially printed. A certified
copy of the bill furnished by the State
Department has just been received
from the Government printer. The
following are the important changes
which will take effect Oh July 1st:
First-The weight of all single-rate
letters is increased from one-half of
ounce each or fraction thereof to one
ounce each or fraction thereof. The
increase or weight is allowed for drop
letters, whether mailed at stations where
there is free delivery or where carrier
service is not established.
Second-All newspapers sent from the
office of publication, including sample
copies, or when sent from a news
agency to actual subscribers thereto, or
to other news agents, shall be entitled
to transmission at the rate of one cent
per pound or fraction thereof, the post
age to be prepaid. This is a reduction
of one-half from existing rates.
Third-Any article in a newspaper
or other publication may be marked for
observation except by written or printed
words, without increase of postage.

A Western Pioneer.

A Massachusetts farmer, who went
west at an early day, tells humorous
story of his efforts to get himself pair
of trousers and coat. He first shot a
deer, and then undertook to tan its hide.
and finally succeeded, and himself made
the trousers. For the coat he was more
fortunate, for an Indian came along
with an extra deer skin, and they soon
made a trade and the coat changed
owners. Thus they liyed-gradually but
steadily lettering their condition as set
tiers, increased in numbers, and after a
while a county organization was formed,
and all the paraphernalia of the courts,
officers, etc, was maintained. For two
of these years Mr.. Little, the farmer,
was chosen to the Office of Sheriff, and
this included the collection of the State
and county taxes, amounting to about
$40, coo, all paid in coin. There was
lot a bank or any other place of deposit,
not even a safe, in the whole county,
and he was compelled to keep the por-
ton due the State until the close of the
year. How, then, could he safely care
for so large an amount of money? In his
own graphic language, there were always
in the West men that he could ''he to.
He would take bag of gold or silver,
of $1,000 or more, and go to one Of these
men and ask him to take care of it for
him, not daring to take receipt lest it
should be stolen, and his friends thereby
get into trouble; and in no case was
there ever failure to deliver the money
when it was called for. One time be
asked friend to take charge of bag of
gold. The friend was somewhat ner-
7ous about taking such a trust, and
said his wife could hide things better
than he could. He turned to his wife,
and she took it and said she would keep
it as safely as possible. After some
months he called for it, and she led the
way to the attic of her log cabin, and
taking down the family ragbag, said:
Il put your money in this bag" and
putting in her hand took out the money
safe. The farmers workmen had slept
every night in the room, with no idea

The Lewis Fish ChOwder.

The famous recipe for making a fish
chowder used by the late Charles A.
Lewis, of New Jersey, was as follows:
Peel two quarts of raw potatoes and
slice them rather thin peel and slice
two quarts of onions; skin and clean
four large porgies, remove the heads and
cut each fish in slices about three inches
thick; soak four sea biscuits for five
minutes in cold water; cut one pound of
fat salt pork in thin slices have ready
for seasoning black and red pepper,
powdered cloves and very small bunch
of thyme; the thyme is to be taken out
OF the chowder before it is served. First
fry one-third of the pork with one-third
Of the onions; then take up the fried
pork and onions, and put them aside to
use presently; wash the kettle in which
the pork and onions were fried, wipe it
dry and put in the bottom layer of
raw salt pork cut in thin slices on the
pork lay some of the fish, and season it
with red and black pepper, salt and
little ground cloves on the fish place
layer OF potatoes All inch thick, next q
similar layer of the raw onions sliced,
then the fried pork and onions and half
the sea biscuit, and season this layer
highly with salt, pepper and powdered
cloves. Repeat the layers of fish. pota-
toes, onions and sea-biscuit until all are
used, seasoning them as directed above:
pour cold water into the kettle until it
entirely covers these ingredients, cover
the Kettle closely and boil its contents
slowly until the potatoes are thoroughly
cooked. When the potatoes are done
add quart OF claret to the chowder let.
1t Just reach the boiling point, remove
the bunch OF thyme, and then serve the
chowder in tureen.

Mr.. GWin was not Bothered,

Ex-senator Gwin, of California, q
gray-headed Democrat and gentleman
Of the old school, came into New
York hotel about IL o'clock the other
night, having just arrived from Wash
ington. A reporter heard him say, as
the clerk offered him pen with which
to register: "No, L won't register: if /
do, I'll have a dozen newspaper fellows
running after me in the morning." The
reporter, who is something of wag,
sent the ex-Senator's name where it
would be announced among the hotel
arrivals the next morning in all the
papers, then took pains to keep all
newspaper men from going to see the
Californian. If Mr.. Gwin sees this. he
will know for the first time why he was
not considered of enough importance to
have "a dozen newspaper fellows" run
ming after him.

The New Orleans Firemen.

The Volunteer Fire Department in
New Orleans, says a newspaper CORE
spondent, is the most potent factor in
the government of the city. In scope
and influence it is as great as the old
volunteer department in New York, and
the members of the organization are
governed with a rod of iron. They
forfeit $40 apiece if they miss funeral,
and their parades are managed with a
degree of hberality that is astonishing.
In one parade few years ago the fire.
men spent 81, 800 for a band of music
which consisted of only forty pieces, and
was not a particularly brilliant band at
that, but the company decided to have
it, and the matter of expense did not
stand in the way-it never does to the
New Orleans firemen. This band was
Orleans several days and returned home
again at the entire expense of the fire.
men. The parade two years ago cost
sc, 900. The funerals of the dead mem
bers are highly impressive. A foreman
of one of the companies told me re-
Gently that they could raise any amount
necessary for parades, dinners, balls,
etc., from the fremen, but as soon as
they started In to raise money for a
charitable object there was a kick at
every point. He said that the spectacle
of widow riding after her dead hus-
bands body at funeral that cost 81 900
or more, while she hadn't enough to buy
the next days breakfast was not an I'M
usual ono If the firemen miss a fire
they are fined by the city government,
which has slight control over them,
because it supplies their engine-houses
and machines. The housekeeper, driver
and engineer are salaried at every sta
ton, and the members drop in at all
hours of the day and night, just to be
on hand in case of an alarm. The
alarms are given from bell-towers. The
firemen wear red shirts and big hats,
with the number of their company on a
shield in front, and when they return
from fire they lock arms and march
along singing musically. After hard
days or nights work at a fire, they be-
gin their song, and return home, fol.
lowed by a small army of white and
colored sight-seers. Several hundred
people go marching back toward the en-

The Texas Wild Hog.

found out good many things about
the peccary before left Texas, says a
visitor to the Lone Star State. There
was time when nothing would kill q
peccary but the poisoned arrows of the
Central American Indians, but that was
before the DAYS of Winchester rifles. A
bullet from Win hester is just search
ing enough to find a peccary's vitals,
but the range don't want to be too long.
When a man goes out hunting peccaries
he doesn't trip lightly through the for
est, and, stealing upon the unsuspect-
ing game, bring it down with his unerr-
ing rifle. No, not when he hunts pee
carries. If he did, nineteen seconds
after he fired his first shot he would be
apportioned out among the drove in
two ounce lots, buttons, boots and bag
gage counted in. The daring peccary
hunter shins up tall tree, near where
the charming creature will more than
likely soon come to feed on acorns or
mast. The peccary has but one virtue
he can't climb tree. Perched safely
on limb, the brave huntsman waits for
the peccary's coming, and when the
drove comes trotting and grunting
along beneath him, he sends "a bullet
through a peccary's heart. The wounded
peccary lies down at once. He knows
Just what's the matter. He turns his
glittering bead of an eye up to the
hunter, and dies without uttering q
sound. One peccary killed out of a
drove, the hunter must have ammuui-
ton enough to kill all the rest, or pro-
visions enough to last him year, for
the survivors at once take positions
around the foot of the tree, and there
they sit on their launches, now and
then gnawing furiously at the trunk of
the tree waiting for the hunter to come
down. If hate, in the fullest sense of
the word, can be expressed by looks and
actions, then the peccary can look and
act it toward human beings. The
hunter shoots one after another of the
waiting drove, and each one, as it is
wounded, lies down without murmur
and dies, never removing its eyes from
its slayer. The living pay no attention
to the dead or dying, but sit there on
their launches hoping for revenge I'M
til the last one dies.

Are the Jews q Distinct Race ?

Are the Jews distinct race ? was the
question asserted, denied, and learnedly
argued on Tuesday night, February "a,
by various eminent Jews, including the
Chief Rabbi Delegate, before a crowded
tute. All the peculiarities of the Jews
that are apparently racial were infinitely
discussed, with the result of leaving
two very distinct impressions. One was
that mixed marriages between Jews and
non-Jews are SO infertile that the
average number of their progeny does
not equal the number of the parents;
consequently half castles tend to die out.
The other was that the question of the
distinctness of the race was in other re-
spects an exceedingly difficult one to
decide. IeLeg1 'ph.
