FINE CLOTHES FOR BABIES.


How n Plutocratio Grandmother Paid
$4,000 for an Infants Layctte.
Says the London Queen: A triae un.
der thousand pounds was the sum
paid for the layette presented by its
grandmother TO the infant Of the Prin-
cess Murat. This seems an almost fabu-
lous amount to expend on so tiny an
atom Of humanity, but glance at, or
rather an examination of, the number
less little garments that compose such
layetto enables one to understand
how costly an order becomes when the
finest lace and insertion enter into the
fabrication of every article OF under
clothing, when petticoats and ilannels
are covered with massive embroidery,
and robes are of Honiton, Valenciennes
or Venetian point. In layettes
now nightcaps are de Tfgueur, for 1t
seems to be generally recognized that
during sleep an infants ears should be
kept warm and its head protected from
cold up to the time when nature pro-
vides it covering. Frillings and
gatherings are, however, abandoned in
favor of that simple horseshoe shaped
cap that has fashion % perpetlite
among the children of the French, but
which is copied in much more delicate
materials for English babies.
Many of the robes owe their beauty
to the fineness of the needlework, the
liliputian tucks and infnitcsimal gather
ings, while others are rich in lace and
embroidery. The patterns worked
upon flannel shawls are made more
effective by the introduction of white
chenille into the flowers and leaves, to
mark the veinings of the latter and the
centres Of the former. Cloaks of ivory
colored frisc velvet are superseding
those of embroidered cashmere, and
with them are worn soft hoods Of satin
or plush, edged with swansdown, made
to draw closely round the face, and
give the warm, cosy appearance one
associates with baby.

Two Young Men Fight for the Affections
Of u birmingham Widow.
BIRMINGHAM, ALA, Oct. 28.-A highly
sensational shooting affair occurred on
the street here tonight, the parties being
two well-known young men, W. p. Orr.
a livery stable keeper, and P. Given. a
clerk in a clothing store. For some time
they have been paying attentions to the
same lady-a widow named Rose-and
bad blood wal the result. Tonight Orr
was ON his way with Mrs. Rose to the
Sam Jones meeting, when Given met him
on a rather lonely street corner and greet
ing him with the words: "You id
scoundrell I'm looking for you" There
upon both pulled pistols simultaneously
and began their bloody work. Given
fired three times, wounding his man
twice. He received three wounds from
five shots fired by Orr who, after both
pistols were exhausted, chased him
across the street, both fighting with the
butts of their weapons. Running into
the house of a neighbor, Orr got another
pistol and was coming out the door
again, when he fell. Given walked to a
drug store four squares distant. His
most dangerous wound is in the region
Of the bladder. Orr's is in the left breast.
1t is thought more than likely that both
men will die.
