A Sand Storm in New Mexico.

The air was still as death, and there
was not o puff of wind nor rag of
cloud in the whole horizon. l OBJ
served, however, that the sky had I'M
dergone q curious change There was
no diminution of the blazing sunlight,
but the deep blue had been superseded
by strange white glare that was
nearly binding, and the heat had in
creased rather than diminished. We
saddled hastily, and were soon thread
ing our way through the broiling lab
yrnth of broiling sand hills and out
onto the broad mesa again. We had
not gone more than mile or two in
the direction of Espanola when Joe,
who had been glancing about in all d.
rections, suddenly remarked, Here
she comes" and, jumping off his burro,
commenced tying him up behind an adj
jacent heap of large powders. We
stared in the direction he pointed, but
could discover nothing save the white
sky, the hills, and the sandy plains.
AS we looked, however, we gradually
became aware that far down the valley
two or three hills had entirely disap-
peared, and, stranger still, that more
of them were being eaten up under our
very eyes!
A little brownish-black cloud, no
bigger than ones hand, was the mon
ster that was thus devour.ng the land
scape. We hastily secured the animals
in the shelter OF the rocks. and came
back to look. The cloud had already
spread quite across the plain and val
ley, and was approaching with fright
full rapidity. 1t was not more than five
miles away. 1t swept along toward us.
with constantly accelerating speed,
bellying, portentous black wall of dust,
that sent long waving fingers up to the
zenith. Mile after mile of mesa and
hill after hill disappeared in its vast
nav, until thore was only one vast rise
left. This was swallowed up, and then,
almost before we could seek shelter,
the storm was upon us with shrek
and blast like the breath from can
non.
In an instant everything was OBJ,
scured 1 peered through my half
closed lids, and could not see sage
bush which had noticed the moment
before only few feet distant. The air
was full of the dull roar of the battling
winds. We could hardly hear the sound
of our voices when we shouted. Every
thing had been wiped away from the
face of the earth, and blur of gray
dust was all that remained. 1 could
barely distinguish those nearest me
through this strange mist. The worst
of it lasted for about half an hour, 1
should think, but the air was still full
of dust when we arrived home about
two hours later. Such is New Mexi-
can sand storm. We found all our
household goods covered with mat of
from half an inch to an inch of an i'm
palbable powder, which had sifted in
through every crack and Granny. Moth
ing had escaped.

new models. The sleeves vary in
shape. Some mantles have the
comfortable sling sleeve, others have
shorter and smaller sleeve, or the long
pointed sleeve that is moro elegant
than either. The loose wraps are use
full when the wearer is bound for an
evening occasion of dress, because they
can hide the indoor toilet without COM
pressing or mussing it. The girl of
the first illustration was drawn as she
appeared on starting for party, and
here she is again after arrival-her
dress being model that will lead no
gentle reader astray. 1t is both modest
and decolcte, and is suitable to many
different materials, from silk to cal
leo.
A freakish fancy in furs this season
is 10 have it match the wearer's hair
in texture. Some foolish and artificial
devotees of fashion, if they can't match
their hair i'll fur, bleach or dye their
heads to the desired hue.
There is in New York just now (it is
hard to say how long it will be there
an establishment for tho restoration OF
the natural color to hair that time has
bleachcd. As it is extensively adver-
tised by circulars, many OF its custom
ers are from a distance. A woman was
seen lately in coat of hair that, like
Joseph's, was of many colors. All
shades of brown, several reds, includ-
ing rose pink and pleasant purple,
adorned her Lead. isn't it frightful ?"
asked she; "my hair was nice, but get
ting gray. yielded to the seductive
assurance of this concern, and here /
am. l had to have my hair first
bleached n dingy, yellow;sh white.
Then it was to be colored any
shade / wanted, and that shade
would be permanent" Then
the poor woman went on to say
that her hair was dyed, after
the bleaching process, chestnut
brown; that some sort of brilliantine
lent to It, for day, life-like appear
ance: but before she had got home it
waS like an old wisp of dirty hay, no
color at all, and the consistency of iute.
In despair she tried all sorts of things,
but the condition of her hair affairs
grew worse, and her last move was the
purchase OF wig and the shaving OF
her head. After her poor, denuded
scalp had been moved of its unpleas
ant crop, microscopial investi
cation by the barber induced him to
say that tho hair bulbs were probably
destroyed and, in his opinion, her hair
would consist for the remainder of her
life of ono lock that he left on top, on
which to skower the wig, ard enable a
bonnet pin to resist any little windy
invitation TO desert, taking hat and
hair with it.

A Corner in Rats.

Down on the Cape, in a time now
we'll gone by, Benjamin C was 6
prominent man. wealthy and foremost
in good many enterprises. Old Mr..
c. was thrifty, like most of the
Cape people, with high regard for the
almighty dollar. He had q lively,
freckle-faced, athletic grandson, as
agile as squirrel, who was named for
him Benjamin G. D., since man
of q good deal of prominence on his ac-
count, and who lived with him. The old
gentleman's barn, as good many other
old places have done, became terribly
invested with rats. The old gentleman
was so greatly annoyed that he offered
the boy so cents apiece for all the rats
he would catch and show to him alive
on the PREMISES precaution to pre-
vent sharp practice on the part of the
youth. After two or three days little
benjamin came to old Pen, amin and
asked him to step out into the barn. He
did so. and was conducted to big, dis
used molasses barrel that stood in the
middle of the barn floor, and asked to
look into it. And there ON the bottom
was wriggling mass of rats three or
four deep, struggling vainly to get out
of the barrel.
"My gorry2" exclaimed the old
gentleman. "Where'd you get all these
rats?"
Caught 'em here in the barn, gram
sir"
How many be they?"
eighty. That's just $40, gran'sir."
"Forty dollars! Why, 1 amt goin
to pay you all that money"
"Aint your Didn't you agree to,
gran'sir?"
swell, yes, but hadn't no idea when
I did that you'd catch such tarnation
lot."
The boy looked up. There was a
rope dangling down from the beam
above that was used in climbing no to
the hayloft. Benny pulled himself up
hand over hand ON this rope until he
hung suspended over the barrel.
"Ain't you goin' to give me that $40
you agreed to, gran sir?" sail the boy.
Never" said the old man, looking
over again into the barrel with its
squirming mass of rats.
"Well, then, hero goes!" said the
boy.
With lively kick he upset the bar
rel in the direction of his grandfather.
The multitude of rats poured around
the old mans feet. He leaped up and
down in terror, and sprang through the
mass to ladder that stood near. Then
he ran up the ladder with an agility
that he had not elualed for fifty years.
And the rats resumed possession of the

A Column or Two of Chat About
the Fair Daughters Of
Eve,
Together with q Few Notes on the
Latest Styles in Feminine
Attire.

The fur-trimmed belle is present
thing of outdoor beauty. Fur enters
into the costumes OF January not
merely as trimming, but in many small
accessories, such as the vest, the cir
die, plastron, cuffs, and also appears in
combination with cloths and velvets in
the way any contrasting fabric would
be used. Many fragile woman car
ries load of fur which wearies while
it warns her. But the wrap shown in
the picture, with only its edges of fur
to add TO that of the cap and muff, is
not overweighted, while it is warm in
both loo1s and feeling. Sealskin,
Persian lamb, long black monkeyskin,
and the brown furs that resemble sable,
as well as the genuine Russian sable
itself, are the fayorites for trimming
wraps. The glossy Russian lamb
skin, that looks like MORE, or watered
fur, is also revived, and, with a pretty,
soft muff to match, is a stylish finish
to any costume of green, red, or blue
cloth trimmed with black, whether it
is black braid or watered silk, or
else lengthwise bands of the blac'i
fur itself. Bands of all kinds of
fur are employed for bordering the
edges of walking costumes made more
OF less in redingote style, and also for
panels and tabs on the fronts and
sleeves of long nantes. Cloth redin-
gotes made with bell-shaped sleeves
and full skirts, open in front, are bor-
dered and edged with bands of fur in
some cases, but separate ornaments
made in style to harmonic with the
costume are more stylish and fashion
able. A novel trimming for mantles is
a kind of fur fringe, with macaroons
and pendants, all made of fur. AS
trakhan is fashionable f T. costumes and
jackets made of light-colored cloth, es-
pecially for such as are in soft, tender
shades, or in blue or green. Chinchilla
and beaver are reserved for handsome
mantles and for dresses which have
wide bands of fur around the edges
and up the sides of the skirt, and fur
ornaments on the corsage. Very ele-
giant visites and mantelets are made of
fur: these are in the same style rs

and have the long fronts and short
backs that characterize all the
