STRUGGLES FOR DRESS.
Every Society Woman wants "a New Gown
for Ihch hennrnte Occnsinn.

for Zach Separate Occasion.
81 may safely say that there is great
strife among society ladies in the mat
ter OF dresses. You sec the people in
our best society, whose patronage we
have, are exclusive. They live among
themselves. They are seen and OBJ
served by one another wherever they
90, whether TO the opera, driving,
dining out or 10 balls, The idea pre-
walls among them that IL would never
do for lady 10 be seen twice in the
same dress. For this reason IL be-
comes necessary for every lady in this
circle 10 have now dress for each
separate occasion Then, you see,
she must have her opcra-drcss, her
carriagc-drcs-, her dining-drcss, her
fun dress. etc, all for each occasion. -
What is the average number Of
dresses for "a season with these ladics?'
"Wcll. let me soc. IN the winter,
what with operas, balls, dinners and
all, suppose new dress nearly every
day is the rule AZ least five new
dresses week is the average IN tho
winter season ! suppose that every
married lady has at least fifty new
dresses
"Thon they would average two hun.
drcd ycar?'
"No; not 80 high as that. You sec
tho winter season is more cxacting.
and there is greater variety Of lie.
should think that the number would
average one hundred dresses a year"
"And how do the prices Of those
ranger
"Wcll, from $3.50 upward for mar
ricd ladies' For young ladies the price
runs from $3.50 upward. For married
ladies more trimming, more elaborate
styles are g,quirs1.'
"IIas this craze Tor 20 many drcsscs
been long in fa-hionY
well IL extends back some five
years"
"Is there any special reason for this
extreme tendency nOwr
There - the go'..ral increase IN The
lavish expenditure of money which
more and more characicrizes our sOci-
cty people! Then there is the special
cause % be foInI in increased variety
in color IN dresses n used % be that
few dresses sulIiccd because there
were only few cOlors and the dresses
were more simple. 4 blue, pink and
black dress would make an outfit en-
braciug the cOlors in vogue. Now tho
number Of shades and combinations is
almost unlimited. 20 that there Is OPP
portunity for "a great and varied dis
play. This naturally leads 10 rivalry
ia the choice ~ colOrs. combinations
and arrangements Of dress. The re.
suit Is that every woman wants a new
dress for each separate occasion, and
she racks her brain in consultations
over styles and combinations. ~ L.

THE PRAIRIE SHRIMP.
4 south rn Writer Tells Western Farm
ers How to ItiliIc Grisshoppcrs.


ers How 10 ItiIiIc GraSshoppcrs.
The grasshoppcr plague in Mime
sofa has assumed 50 serious charac-
ter that the farmers around ST. Paul
have decided topay s. bu-hcl for the
insects, in order 10 stimulate the efforts
for their destruction. In Venezuela,
recently, u prize Of $1,000 was offered
10 any body who would invent "a means
Of proGtlbly converting locusts into
grca5s or any other useful article. We
can not claim originality for the idea,
but why not adopt The Indian system?
The aboriginal farmers Of the plains,
we have been told heretofore. do not
regard the grasshoppcr as an unqual-
flied evil. When their wheat crops
grow undisturbcl by these insects the
Indians cat the wheat after IL has been
prepared in the usua. way. Whom the
grasshOppers come and eat the wheat,
however, the Indians cat the grass
hoppers. IN this way they are always
sure Of "a good crop Of one kind or the
other, and are happy in any event.
There is authority for the -ta'omcu,
that fried gras.hoppers are not uupal-
atable. the testimony of white mon
who have dincd on them being that
they have a erich, nutty taste" not Iu-
like peanuts, or sCmcthingof that sort,
and that the most squcamish person

CHICAGO, April 1.-THE wheat market was
an active but very uncertain one to-day. The
general buying fever which ragged yesterday on
the strength Of the Washington croy report was
somewhat cooled Of this morning. Prices for
the session were as often below as above the last
prices last night Closing prices we're nearly
the lowest of the session. and showed May, Tie;
june, 784c; July, 79ac. Transactions 10 corn
were large in the aggregate. aud the market
well supported from the start to the close
Tho main feature Of the deal was the small re-
ceipts. During the session several operators
were credited with covering for May, and
another firm was buying July. Ons firm was
buyer most OF the time, and took one lot OF
hundred Thousand bushels from another dealer az
almost the outside price. The hrmness was ap-
parent on the curb. and opening prizes were q
&c higher than the close. Early, May sold mar
rowiy at 53k a 532c, and when the bulge came the
price was taken TO 54c. Later 1t sold back 20

prevailed. Near futures advanced &c, TO-
lowed by quietness. the market closing &c bet.

prices narrow. Pork fuctuated 223c, and closed
Sc above inside figures. and 123c below last
nights close. One operator Who repre-
sents the syndicate, sold ever 10000
barrels yesterday, but his sales to-day were con-
siderably below that figure. Whenever the
crowd wanted any pork they were readily ac-
eommodated. but the volume of trading vas not
large. The impression prevails that the syndi-
