DELIGHTFUL FABRICS.
Pretty Cotton Goods and Handsome Chine

Pretty Cotton Goods and Handsome Chine
and Glace Silks.
In new cotton toilets, combinations of
two fabrics are very prettily arranged,
and the fashion affords many ways for
ramodeling a last summers dress, or of
making use of new materials whose
patterns separately are "short length. "
For instance, the plated skirt of pink
satteen or chambray may be finished at
the foot with broad facing of pink and
white gngham, with waist and sleeve
trimmings to match;ora pale blue organ
die may have an underskirt of blue and
pink or blue and cream striped French
lawn. Dainty imported dresses for
summer wear at the seaside show pretty
tinted chambrays, organdies and other
fancy goods, with s., rts of striped ma
terials, which are laid in broad plats,
the stripes formed of the two fabrics,
torn in strips and run together. The
Jacket and full skirt in the back are
made of the plain goods, with Figaro
vest collar and sash drapery of the
stripe. Stripes for more expensive
evening toilets are made of wide lace
insertion and bands of grenadine, silk
canvas or etamine sewed together.
The prettiest fabrics displayed atpres-
ent are the chine and glace silks. They
are both picturesque and artistic, many
of them in the style of the gay Pompa-
dour satteens, only softer and more
dainty in coloring. Large flowers of
delicate tintS are strewed rather far
apart on silk of exquisite texture, the
edges of the flowers shading off into
the silk. The silks themselves are made
in all tints imaginable, faint, delicate
colors being in the majority. such as
dove, pale water green, tea rose, sal
mon beige, creamy pinks with. dash
of yellow in them, blue in various
shades, ecru in tones and semi-tones:
in fact, the silks are dyed to suit all
tastes and compilations, as there are
/ also chine silks with wallhower back
/ grounds, deep garnets, marine blues,
brocaded with dark red figures, etc.
What delightful fabrics for teas, garden
| parties and the likel In a dovc-gray
chine silk brocaded with pink flowers, a

black velvet ribbon and blush roses,

A large, we'll dressed man was observed
standing motionless in Union Park last
night with his hands folded across his
breast and his eyes fixed on the full moon
in silent ecstasy. People passing through
the park stopped to look at the statue, but
the stranger paid no attention to any
thing sublunary. Finally Officer Miller, a
park policeman, touched the man on the
shoulder and asked him the reason for his
strange conduct. No reply except an in
nrticulate humble was received. The man
remained perfectly motionless and his
muscles were rigid. The officer finally gave
up the attempt to rouse him and called the
Lake street patrol wagon to take the man
to the County Hospital. The man was
placed in the wagon and taken to the hos
pital, when within short time he showed
that he was an imitation OF John L. Sulli-
van in other ways than in the classic
statuaTy art. AS soon as lie was taken
into one of the wards, the mysterious star
gazer's muscles were Immediately re-
Taxed, and he began to strike out from the
shoulder and to throw himself around in
the most violent commissions. 1t was
deemed best to place the patient in a
straight jacket, but it was found necessary
to place him under the influence of chloro-
form before he could be got under control.
Before the fumes of the anesthetic had
gained possession of his senses six stall
wart men could not hold him.
Show is your patient, doctor?" was
asked of DR.. rockingham. who attended
him.
"He's getting along first rate" was the
reply. "He hasn't had a recurrence of the
commissions in five minutes" In response
to inquiries as to what was the matter
with the patient, DR.. rockingham said
that he was evidently moon struck. As
this diagnosis caused general smile the
doctor was questioned further. He said
"SeriouslY speaking, there is no such
thing as being moon struck in this eli.
mate. Cases often occur in India, where
men sometimes sleep exposed to the ray!
of the moon in a damp, marshy place. Il
is difficult to diagnose this case without
more complete examination, but this il
probably case of spinal meningitis. II
person of his age-he is over fifty year!
Of age-it is likely to result fatally"
The identity of the patient is as much g
mystery as his history and the cause o.
his being found in such condition.

A NApoLeoNlo CONSPIRACY.
Discovery OF a Treaty Between Napoleon
and the Duke of Brunswick

Discovery oil a Treaty Between Napoleon
and the Duke of Brunswl
A Swiss correspondents in looking
over the papers of the eccentric Duke of
Brunswick, deposited at the library of
Geneva, has found the draft of secret
mutual assistance treaty between him
and the late Emperor Napoleon. 1t is
dated Ham, June 20, 1874, and is not
only signed Louis Napoleon Bonaparte,
but written by him on a white silk pocket
handkerchief in marking ink. The
French is full of Germanisms. The
treaty is in five articles, and the con-
tracing parties are bound by an oath
and their honorto observe it. In return
Tor the money which the German Prince
was to furnish the French one with to
escape from Ham and restore the en-
pire, the latter was to aid the other to
enter again into the possession of his
duchy and all his fiefs, and, if possible,
to make all Germany one nation, giving
1t constitution suited to its traditions,
manners and the needs of a progressive
age. ANapoleonic conspiracy was car
tied on by the assistance of the Duke of
Brunswick's purse. On the 22d of July,
1870, Napoleon III. was for the last
time reminded of the promises sworn to
and written on the silk pocket handker-
chief He answered this reminder in a
short note thus worded: Il nave re.
