Shades for Autumn.

The autumn wraps are shown in jetted
canvas material and coarse wooden goods,
striped with colored cables, chains, or
lines. Beaded Examines are also seen. The
colors for mantles of all kinds are dahlia,
bronze, myrtle, pigeon gray, and reseda
Short nantes of velvet and plush are like
wise In fashion. Some of these affairs
show delicate gathered plastrons, extending
all the way down the front to the waist.
The trimmings for all kinds of nantes are
beaded galloon, and beaded and chenille
fringes.

blue wooden material; wide plastron of
white surah, plated runs from the neck to
the waist, where it draws into a point At
the sides of this plastron are placed wide
revers, running back over the shoulders.
and meeting behind in a point. A high
military collar is worn.
The Fedora front has reappeared, and
very many stylish dresses are made in this
way. The loose vests worn with these
costumes are sometimes magnifcently en-
broidered in beaded designs
For tailor made dresses, the position
basque is by far the most popular form.
Some of these gowns are made with polo
naises. Peasant bodices, laced above a skirt
plastron, which is bordered with wide vel
vet revers, are seen on some of the latest
dresses. Plated panels, beginning at the
waist and running all the way down the
side, but IN the same material as the skirt
are also seen. They are bordered with rows
of small buttons of the same color.
Some very beautiful parasols are seen in
the streets now. They are trimmed with
lace over a satin foundation. Others are
IN the most brilliant shades that the eye
can conceive. In many cases the parasols
are carried to match the ladies bonnets.
In place of the simple folds of cloth or
velvet, which have been popular so long, as
edg1ng for the neck and wrists, tulle frills
and ruches are to be revived. Tulle frills
viii be seen In plain white and in colors.
Some of them are white with black edg-
ing, or r1ce rersd. In this case they are
termed jackdaw frills. White folds of
silk null, which are very delicate and soft,
are edged with pretty little silver beads.
There are no prominent novelties of STYLE
IN dressmak1ng for the coming season.
Almost any variety of corsage may be worn,
posulions leading in favor. Polonaises
have been revived to some extent. Vests
and piastrons are still extensively used in
trimming all kinds of basques. Skirts are
allowed the same wide range. In many
models the over drapery is slightly longer
and fuller than before, but they are not al
lowed to mass near the waist. as that would
interfere with the slimness of the figure.
The back Is always draped bouffant over
the hips.
Ribbons will be largely used on a great

and clusters, and also sewed on fat. in the
same way as braid is used Wide black
velvet ribbon, with picot edges, will be en-
ployed to make vests. or rather imitation
vests, which are formed by wide loops of
ribbon arranged one above the other, and
the edge of each falling over the other.

How Ireland's Policemen Look

From Letter in the Cleveland Leader.l
The Irish police are, as a rule, very
tall men, and there is regulation as
to their size. They wear olive-green
uniforms and helmets, and carry short
swords, rifles and clubs. and Ireland
has more than twice as many
of them in proportion to her
population as England, and near
ly three times as many as Scotland.
1t costs every year over $7,5OO,O0O
to keep the peace in Ireland, to only
ST., 100000 in Scotland, and about
SIT, 100000 in England. The great
majority of the Irish police are Catho-
lies, and this was the cause of the
continued riot at Belfast. The Irish
police costs England over $1,000
900 year, and it is aquestion wheth-
er on the whole Ireland does not cost
her more than she is worth. She re-
ceives in customs and taxes from
Ireland only from $4,000, 900 to
$40, 100000 q year, and spends near
ly $2O,OOO,OOO a year upon her, out
side of the army and naval expenses.
The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland gets
100000 year salary, and the Lord
Lieutenant's household has over $37,-
600 a. wear

And he bathed her face from the con-

The vehicle, bearing a party of tourists,

"Oh!n

A PrecoCious Little Boy.

From the Cincinnati Times -Star.l
The last official visit of the Rev. f.
Hypes, presiding elder, OF the West
Cincinnati district, to his charge at
Harrison took place last Sunday. At
the Sunday school the infant class, all
expectation and futter in the illustrl-
GUS presence, toed the mark to be
eathecised by the er.
Said he: Children what do you go
to Sunday school for ~

vociferous earnestness from the little
urchins.

"Ouite right, my children, "smilingly
ouoth the elder. "But what else do
Won do?" This was q poser. The
bows had evidently struck q snag, and
the suspense was becoming painfully
embarrassing to the boys, and prolific
OF kno yledgeous smiles on the part OF
the elder, when little hand appeared
nervously futtering from the back row
to attract attention. "Aha, there is

and the results have been satisfactory
although ten or twelve inch main
would have been most advisable.
For determining the proper grade
and depth at different places, nothing
Will equal the use of a good level by q
competent engineer; and in case of
difficulty, or when large quantity of
drainage is to be done, the employ.
ment OF such a man is the best econ
omy. But there is conclusive proof
on thousands OF farms that this is not
essential to good work. Where the
TALL IS reasonable in quantity and uni
formlty, flowing water in the ditch
may be used for determining the grade
with reasonable assurance of good re-
suits. Simple DEVICES by which the
ordinary carpenters level, or q TRAN
gular frame with base of eight or six
teen feet and plumbob hanging with
line OF hall it's length, can be made use
OF by careful men with little risk of
serious mistakes. Some of these SIM
pie devices had better be tried than to
attempt to use the engineers level by
one unfamiliar with it and it's work
ings. 1t must be kept in mind that
the most accurate work of the enei-
neer, even with stakes set every ten
feet, each carefully marked, will not,
OF itself, secure uniform grading by
careless workmen. In cases where the
fall is fairly uniform, good results
come from tightly stretching q line at
any convenient distance from the sur
face-say four feet-and determining
the depth by measuring down from
this. The stakes supporting the line
may be 100 feet apart.
There Is often danger, when the lines
OF tile pass near trees or hedges, of
trouble from the roots entering and
filling the tile. Willow trees are par
ticularly troublesome in this respect.
Ii 1T be necessary to have the tile near
either tree or hedge, the danger can be
avoided by using large tiles as collars
Wherever, from any cause, dram
fails to work satisfactorily, prompt
investigation and repair is the wise
course. The breakage or filling of q
single tile, If neglected, may cause the
filling OF long line. Formerly the use
OF silt basins or little cisterns, for the
collection of sediment was strongly
advlsed-more so than now seems
wise. Where several tiles are brought
together, where there is marked de-
crease of fall, or where change of di-
rectlon to nearly right angles is I'M
avoldable, such basins will be bene-
fetal, provided they are kept cleaned
out; otherwise they may be much
worse than useless.-Prairie Farmer.

Roaring Tides.

The best examples of the eager or
bore, the phenomenon in which the
tides moves all at once, are said to be
furnished by the mouths of the Rivers
Amazon, Hoogly and Tsientang. In
the case OF the last mentioned river,
In China, the wave plunges in like an
advancing cataract, four or FIVE miles
IN breadth and thirty feet high, and
thus passes up the stream to dis
tance of eighty miles at the rate OF
twenty FIVE miles an hour. The change
from ebb to food tide is almost in
Simultaneous. In the Amazon the
whole tide passes up the stream in five
or six waves following each other in
rapid succession, and each twelve to
fifteen feet high.

Barberries by the wall
Glow crimson in the silver haze
That ushers in the fail
Old ocean dreams in slumbers deep
OF wintry storms to come;
In far-oh mountain caverns sleep
The winds, the brooks are dumb
The partridge, in lone country lanes,
Whirs low a speckled wing;
Silence through all the woodland reigns;
The birds forget to sing.
From yellow corn fields slowly pass
The crows with Changing cry;

For summers life 30 brief.
And f1uttering on that sigh 8 faint breath,
