No MORE MOTHER HUBBARDs,- Mother
Hubbard bathing robes are no longer fash
ionable. Miss Templeton, of Altoona, is au-
thority for the statement. She prepared q
gorgeous Mother Hubbard of scarlet flannel
with white trimmings, and then started for
Atlantic City on the seeshore express. She
arrived at the beach on Tuesday, and yes
terday was chosen for its display. The
mountain maid and the Mother Hubbard
appeared simultaneously on the beach. The
regular crowd of mashers were on hand, and
they voted that they liked the short-ahirt
style of dress better, but as this was Miss
,Templeton's first appearance of course she
should have her own way. A young railroad
manager escorted the lady to the water.
There was a female shrek, just a little
shrek, because the water WAS cool. The
maid from the mountain weded cut until the
water reached her waist. The water got un-
der the big dress, and sooE the belle Of al.
toona looked like q moderate sized balloon.
She began to float, and the air getting un-
der the dress lifted her off her feet Three
or four brave young men went to the bellies
rescue and escorted her ashore. She ssys
Mother Hubbards were not made for bath
ing dresses, but the boys think they are first

UPSET BY A SHARK.-Friday two men,
named Sbanihan and Mcleod, left Tampa
in rowboat for Big Island fishing grounds,
down the Hillsborough Bay. While on
their way back to the city they were sud-
denly tumbed into the water by shark
darting underneath the boat and upsetting
it, says the Savannah NeaUs. Both Mcleod
and Shanihan are good swimmers, aud to
this accomplishment they owe their lives,
for it was some time after being so uncere-
moniously thrown into the water that they
were able to get upon the keel of the boat
which was then floating, bottom upward,
seversl yards away. In the meantime the
shark, evidently frightened at what it had
DONE was not to be seen. fortunately, too,
for the parties in the water. who aver that
it looked eight feet long. Finally the men
got upon the bottom of the boat and with
one oar and their hands propelled the boat
to the garrison beach, which they reached
at IL O'Clock, having spent nearly three
hours on the keel of the boat.

Black Underwear for Ladies'.


Black threatens TO become a more popular
color than ever in certain classes of Parisian
society. There hss already been much discus
sion about black corsets" and it win be re-
membered perhaps by readers of French novels
that NJ. Paul Bourget, in his recent volume
entitled AIensonges," clothes his heroine,
Nine Moraines, in a corset R0ir which is re-
garded by her more Puritanical female friends
as a badge of unpazdonable levity. Should the
present rage for black become more prevalent.
not only stays but other mysterious articles of
feminine attire promise to become as sable az
Hamiet's ''inky cloak " itself. A pretty and
popular actress whose name is famous in opera
bouffe has already, indeed, given q remarkable
impetus TO the growing taste for the lugubrious
color chosen for funerals. She appeared on the
stage a few nights ago arrayed in black from
head to foot. Consultations of the ballet have,
Of course frequently appeared in " black
tights" but the actress in question has out
heroded Herod and astounded her admirers by
revealing to their powerful lorgettes the over
Whelming fact that not only were here "tights"
aud continuations sable, but that nor under
garments, instead of being Of the conventional
oreamy-cOlored order, were of the most lustrous
jet in tint and were fringed with arabesque
lacowork of same color, Black may, therefore,
be the only wear in the future.

Telephone Girls deprived of Gum.
Detroit Journal.

There were weeping and wailing and gnssh-
ing Of teeth in the telephone stations the other
day over new order. The hellO-girls have
bowed in submission to the order that there
shall be no reading, no sewing, no crocheting,
no drawn work while they are on duty. But
when the order was issued forbidding them to
chew gum they felt that the time had come to
strike till the last armed foe should expire.
Conferences were held and cabals formed, but
in the end quiet was restored and the gum was
throWn out of the window. The reason for the
order was simple. When a subscriber calls for,
say. 1873 3r, the girl with the gum would re-
peat:
Fortythreeseyentyeigh rings"
Then the subscriber would say it again, and
again would come back the Greek word for
pot-pie. Anger would be kindled, the wires
would become superheated, and 1000 would
get the complaint that the girls were impu-
dent; and yet it was all due to the gum.
