An Elegant Black Toilet Recently Inn
ported-stylish Millinery.
Among the elegant black toilets dis
played by an importer noted for the
beauty and magnifcence of his display
of Partisan gowns, is a robe of black
Turkish satin draped with India gauze
embroidered in jet in the most delicate
and intricate patterns. The asrange-
ment of the gauze and satin plaitings on
the front and sides are a study in French
art, delft, original and beyond descrip-
tion. The full groups of satin and lace
at the back are held by costly jet orna-
ments in novel devices. The bodice has
q low lining of black satin and is sleeve
less. A frill of lace is arranged to fall
over the arms, and above this are
magnificent ornaments in the form of
epaulets. The gauze bodice opens in q
deep V all the way down the front, with
a ietted lace vest set in which reaches
from the top of the low satin lining to
the extreme point Of the bodice proper
The millinery stores are respondent
with bonnets and round hats, trimmed
and untrimmed, designed for fall and
winter wear. Among these are charm
ING princesse bonnets, made wholly
of superbly colored velvets in dark
ruby. olive, golden-brown, moss-green,
garnet and deep blue, richly embroider-
ed in tiny detached sprays of fine flow
ers in Their natural colors. These have
very often dainty little Finger cosies'
to match, or sometimes a regular mutt
in drum shape, but very d m nutive in
size. One pretty bonnet in the ''fish-
wife shape is made of black Lyons
velvet embroidered with gold beads
and trimmed with sprays of golden-rod
and loops of black velvet lined with
gold satin. The bonnet is faced with
gold satin yelled with black Spanish
lace. A lovely opera bonnet in gypsy
shape is made OF cream-whte velvet,
and trimmed with wreath of the most
beautifully shaded velvet autumn leaves
in scarlet. green and gold. The bon
vet is faced with scarlet velvet, and the
narrow strings are Of cream-whlte vel
vet. A pink velvet bonnet of the same
shape is wreathed with dark red velvet
nastnrtiums and foliage of darker red
velvet sumac leaves tipped with gold. =

AL ABOUT LACROSSE.
An Indian Game which Has Become
Popular in All Parts of the World.

An Indian Game which Has Become
Popular in All Parts of the World.
'Nhcre is no doubt that this game is of
IHshan origin. 1t was first seen by
Europeans when the French explored
the territory along the St. Lawrence
river and the great lakes, in the seven
teenth century. Among the Algonquin
Indians the game was not merely re-
creation, but Il training school for young
warriors, AMI they played it on the
grassy meadows in the summer time,
and on the ice in winter. They used a
ball of stuffed skin, and a bat like q
hickory stick with a net of reindeer hide
attached to the curved part of it. The
best-known indian name of the game
was baggataway. It's present name
was given TO it by the French settlers OF
Canada, because of the S milarity of the
stick used in the game, in shape, to a
Bishops crosier. Lacrosse was adopted
as game by the white residents OF
Canada some forty years ago, but it did
gain much popularity till about 1860,
when the Montreal Club was organized.
The game was first played in England
IN 1867, when a gentleman of Montreal
, took eighteen Indian players, of the
Caughnawaga tribe, thithcr, who played
it before large assemblies The result
was the organization of a number of
Lacrosse clubs in England and Scotland,
and the game isnow very popular there:
1t was first introduced into the United
States about three years later and the
first club in this country was the Mo.
hawk Lacrosse Club of Troy, N. Y. In
1879 the National Lacrosse Association
was organized here. 1t would be i'm
possible, in our brief space, to give any
synopsis of the rules of the game; these
must be learned from a book on the
subject, but we will outline briefly how
the game is played. There are twenty
four contestants, twelve on each side,
with the captains (not necessarily
nlayers) two umpires and a referee.
The twenty-four players are each pro-
yded with a crosse. The two captains
arc not allowed to carry a crosse, their
official work on the field being simply
TO coach the players. At each end
of the field of play stands goal, con-
sisting Of two posts, feet high and
six feet apart. These goals must be at
tcsssG 30 ydiuS tpftt u, otiiSA "ioo ei11i
is no restrictive rule on the length and
with of the field. The Indians used a
much larger field than any used in the
game as adopted by white ball-plavers.
The ball. which is of rubber, should
weigh not over four ounces nor meas
ure more than eight inches in circum-
ference. The theory of the game is
merely that each side strives to send
the ball through the goal of the other
side, and the side that does this the
most times within specified period
wins the match. The players on each
side stand at certain fixed points. The
ball must not be handled in any way;
it must bc picked up, carried or thrown
only by means of the crosse. This inn
plement, as now used, is bant stick
covered with netting.-Chscago Inter-

Lost and Found.

There was considerable excitement
in town last Saturday evening when it
was learned that J. G. edwards, who
late in the afternoon had gone up to
the spring after his cows, had not re-
turned. The members of his family
became alarmed and searching parties
started out in search of the missing
man. As the night wore on and no
trace of him could be found, the excite
ment increased, and a score of men and
boys, on horseback. and on foot, with
lanterns scattered over the surround
ing hills, kept up the search till worn
out and near daybreak, but to no avail.
Sunday morning the search was renew
ed, the Monitor miners quitting work
and joining in the search. All this time
the anxiety of the family and friends of
the missing man can he imagined bet
ter than described. About IL o'clock
shots were heard up in the mountains,
which was the signal that the lost was
found, but it was yet uncertain wheth-
er dead or alive. This suspense was
soon broken by messenger who came
in and announced that Mr.. Edwards
was all right. The old gentleman had
lost his way, got over the summit, tied
up his jenny, built a fire and laid down
till daylight. There was rejoicing in
the Edwards mansion land all over
town, when about noon the old man
rode up, as did the Good Master on his
famous entry into Jerusalem.
