Styles displayed suggest unlimt-
ed license in the line of fabrics as in
the methods Of their fashiOnino: one
might as we'll try to count the lights
in the Casino or the sands on the
Jersey coast, as to attempt to pin to
any set form or expression, that an
omaly OF all nations and peoples
yclept the novelty of the hour; and
yet Aesthetics are satisfied and eco
nomists appeased; the prices at
Lord & Taylor's and other furnish
ing centres, are the greatest problem
of all. 1t is marvellous how they
manage it yet patrons in the city

The Baltimore and Ohio people,
are pushing their work to swift com
pletion. The last span of the Sus,
quehanna bridge is in place, and the
superstructure being erected above
the piers Over the Schuylkill; and it
is fair to pres une, that by the 18th
Of August the connection will be
consumated and through trains run,
ming to swift time between Philadel-
phia and New York. Spacious stock
yards are being laid out and other

scheme whose merits lie in its con-
structive completeness.

by whom these crude elements are
so forcibly fashioned. Not one

pretermitt' Il, yet never were common
place situations slgnalized by such
sentiments; and the word play is
wonderful. Then there climax of
quaint humor coined from chrys-
alistic conditions tuned to the pulse
stirring music as causes one to feel
as if there were no world to conquer
outside of the present triumph; and
yet, the versatile impersonator is
sure to strike the keynote to new
surprise in the play in process, to be
presented September 9Th, to which
the devotee of Harrigans dramas,
are looking forward with delight.
They are the inspiration of the hour
and indicate TO dot the tone and
temper of the times. -. 81
