PRETTY SUITS.
How Two Exceedingly Handsome Winter
Costumes Are Made and Trimmed

How Two Exceedingly Handsome Winter
Costumes Are Made and Trimmed.
There are many very elegant COS
TUNES with rich fur trimming. One
that is notable for its exquisite fit and
finish is of light gray camel's-hair
of fine quality and in heavy weight,
made with a kilt-plaited skirt, the
plaits in front running to the belt
as there is no apron, and straight
back draperies. The basque is very
short on the sides and pointed in front,
and long Topped bow and ends is set
just over the left hip well back among
the draperies. A satin-lined New
market of the same material is to be
worn with this dress, and is trimmed
entirely around the bottom and down
the fronts just back of the closing but
tons with band four inches wide of
fine chinchilla fur. A gray felt hat
trimmed with chinchilla fur band
around the brim, gray velvet, and a
cluster OF gray plumes and an aigrette
finishes this charming costume A
muff of chinchilla belongs to the outfit.
Another attractive costume is made
of French gray camels' hair and navy
blue plush, the front of the gray in
three double box-plaits pressed very
close, and the remainder of the skirt of
the blue plush, without any foot plait-
'ngs or other finish than braid. A very
,ull back drapery of the camels' hair
falls over the skirt nearly to the bottom.
The postillion basque is of the camels'-
hair with avest of plush, and has plush
revers, very broad at the top turning
back almost to the shoulders. Instead
of the usual cuff, a very long V-shaped
piece of plush is set into the upper side
of the sleeve and Tapped in narrow
band that extends entirely around the
wrist. A short mantle of plush with
gray feather trimming, aud a blue
plush bonnet with q sea gull and loops
OF blue and gray velvet completes this
costume.
Combination suits of the various pop
ular fabrics are used, but fewer are
seen than formerly. Some of the most
stylish dresses are made entirely of
6oucte goods, more especially the Astra-
khan bourette with tiny curled rings
of shiny wool. This material, while
not particularly durable, is so pretty
and soft, and Grapes so well, that it has
become extremely popular. There is
undoubtedly tendency toward palmer
dress goods, and some of the best
authorities predict that next years i'm
sortations will be remarkable for the
absence of fancy effects DemoreSts

is a fund OF wholesome sport, especially in
the latter, and source OF enjoyment be-
yond the ken OF the person to whom the
idea OF amusement is realized in an evening
at theater or q bout at penny-ante under
the lea OF some glowing baseburner.
Ice yachting iswhat may be termed q safe
sport. With proper precautions it is safe
enough, but the faint flavor of danger, the
overcoming suggestions of disastrous
possibilities, adds to its attractiveness and
lends a charm With removes the drawback
OF tameness. Accidents were common
enough in the early days of yachting, ow-
ing to imperfections of construction and in
experience to satisfy the most sanguinary,
but decent regard for safety of life, limb
and property has changed this and the
sport is as sale as the nature OF it will per-
init. Experienced yachtsmen need not hest
tate to take their families along under rea-
sonable conditions Of wind and ice. The
chief drawback to the many would-be
yachtsmen is the lack of stretch OF ice
which can be relied on each month. Abso-
lutte smoothness OF ice, such as skaters need,
is not necessary, though desirable. The
presence of distractions, while preventing
great speed, frequently makes the sport all
the more interesting by bringing into play
all the nautical skill q yachtsman may
have. Going over rough ice and cracks re-
quires the exercise OF GOODNESS, promptness
and skill. The yacht must be brought up
so as to spill thew and relieve the strain
and then headed so that the runners will
not get caught in the cracks, something
which usually causes the rigging to all go
by the board ii not securely stayed, but
more frequently results in wrenching off the
skate.
In sensations and effect ice yachting is
the nearest app!Es2as s. 1t to- flying that has
been invented. Ballooning has been
hkened to flying, but it is only by those on
the ground that the likeness is appreciated,
Tor IN balloon sense of motion is lost. It
is the acme OF egotism. To the balloonist
his gas ball is stationary, while the earth
drops away from him. In ice boating the
sense OF motion is ever present, sometimes
painfully so; as when one IS bearing down
on an ice hummoc or the black stretch of
open water at the rate of thirty-five miles
an hour, with apparently thirty seconds
between one and disaster or drowning.
The inexperienced passenger clinging to
the weather shrouds with q grip which
would start the tar from the frozen rope
can not help devoting a second or two to
wondering what the imperturbable gentle
man In the stern sheets is going to do
about it. The speed of an ice yacht, under
favorable circumstances, is something 60

UNPRETENTIOUS.
The Ease With Which President Lincoln
Adapted Himself to circumstances.

The Ease With Which President Lincoln
Adapted Himself to Circumstances.
President Lincoln would have been
very fond of Mark Tapley, that hero Of
Dickens who was always jolly under
difficulties. There was nothing pre-,
tentious about the President, and he
easily adapted himself to circumstances
Just before the close of the war he
ran away from the politicians and
office-seekers of Washington, went
down to City Point in the steamer River
Queen, and invited himself to stay with
Admiral Porter on board the flagship
Malvern. She was a small vessel. with
poor accommodations, but the Presi.
dent was content to occupy a small
stateroom, six feet long by four and
half wide, and would not accept the
Admiral's larger room. When he re.
tired for the first night on board, he
put his shoes and socks outside of his
stateroom door. The socks had holes
in them, but they were washed and
darned by the ships tailor, and placed,
with his cleaned shoes, at his door
"A miracle happened to me last
night, said the President at the break,
fast table. ''When l went to bed had
two large holes in my socks, and this
morning there are no holes in them.
That never happened to me before; il
must be a miracle"
''How did you sleep, Mr.. President!
asked the Admiral.
81 slept WELL" he answered, "but
you can't put a long blade into short
scabbard. l was too long for tina,
berth. T."
The President was six feet four inches
in height, and the berth was only six
feet long.
That day, while the President was
away from the ship, the carpenters en-.
larged the stateroom, heightened the
berth and made over the mattress to fiji
it. Nothing was said about the change
to the President. The next morning he
came out smiling.
"a greater miracle than ever hap,
pened last night said he. 81 shrani

so lively"
81 think, adds Admiral Porter, who
tells the story, that If | had given hin
two fence-rails to sleep on, he woulC
mot have found fault. That was Abra
ham Lincoln in all things relating t.
his own comfort. He would never per
init people to put themselves out TO,
him under any circumstances. -

When the wind blows thirty or forty
miles an hour it is a gale. A sixty-mle
zephyr is hurricane. When it gets above
1hat IL IS a cyclone or typhoon and vet
ice yachts will average mile minute in q
twenty-mile wind for comparatively long
distances; and when it is considered that
on the Hudson where these tests have been
made, the ice presented distractions in
volving frequent maneuverngs, and that
the speed at least hall the time was under
twenty-five miles, it will be seen that dur
ing part of the time, to make up the av-
erage, cyclone rate of speed must have

iCE-YACHTING.

A Sport Which Leads the World for
Speed and Puzzles Scientists-Sixty Miles
an Hour in a Twenty-Mile Breeze-The
Dangers and Pleasures of the Pastime.
There are two things in the physics OF
sport which scientists do not understand,
and not understanding, deny their exist
ence. One is the possibility of ''curving"
ball, and the other is the fact that an ice.
yacht win continuously sail faster than the
wind which propels it. Classroom philoso-
pliers have furnished demonstrations galore
that a ball could not be curved and that it
was utter scientific nonsense than an ice
boat win race with and beat the wind, and
yet there stands the brutal and inconsider-
ate fact that both are done, and what is
worse, done by men who don't know the
difference between alogarithm and a pump
handle. To scientific mind these rock
ribbed, pyramidal facts are something
bazarre, inexphcable, Flanniganesque. But
there is more amusement in ballplaying
and ice-yachting than the mere fun OF DEFY
ing scientific claws" and truths. There

A yacht weighing eight hundred pounds
has been towed on smooth ice, without
wind, by two thicknesses of common white
wrapping Irvine. In the greatest velocity
the heat is at once absorbed by the ice, and
no more friction is caused in running one
hundred than in running ten miles per hour.
She makes no leeway, and thus loses no
sail-push She meets the most resistance
in air friction, or in the force OF the wind
against her in beating to windward Her
great speed changes the effective direction
OF the wind Ii the wind came twenty miles
per hour from the south and she sailed
twenty miles per hour to the east the ap.
parent source of the wind power would be
from the southeast. She can not sail with
the wind without running ahead of it dur
ing the lulls losing the force OF the wind be-
hind and being kept back by what is prac-
tlcaliy an adverse wind. She can not 90
any faster than the wind on this course,
which is her worst one. A beam wind is
better for ingoing at right angles with the
wind, as she loses none OF its force by her
own speed. She cuts across it, but does not
run away from it. There is some air fric.
ton here, however. She will make the best
speed on the course where there is the least
air friction, and receives the strongest push
in forward direction. This course is the
