There is but littlo room FOR depression

There is a sack coat which different
leaders have at times attempted to intro
duce in place Of the dress suit. IL is
known in England as the "Cowe1 coat"
and in this country as tie Tuxedo" It
is not the intention to have this coat take
the place of the dress coat at all times.
1t Is to have something to relieve the
dress coat of duty except on state occa-
sions. 1t may be con venient to weasr in
summer, when the days are long and
one desires garment that can be worn
before dinner without an overcoat, but
there Is no great likelihood Of this sack
at present taking the place Of dress

below whose skirts the tails Of dress
coats Of "dudes" have so long protruded.
1t is thus described by The Clothier and

A CURIOUS PREDIcAMENT.
Two Young Democrats Steal senator
vHnoe's Wilmington Speech.

A Philadelphia special to the New
York Tribune says: One of the most
amusing incidents in the present cam
paign occurred at Democratic mass
meeting recently held at Marcus Hook,
Pa. The county committee furnished
the speakers for the meeting selecting
two young lawyers, socially prominent
but of little merit Their names are
Brown and Thompson and they were
given week to prepare their addresses.
BY curious coincidence both attorneys
procured copy of speech delivered at
Wilmington Del, a week before by
Senator Vance Of North Carolina, and
began the study of its rounded periods,
and Democratic rhetoric.
They labored assiduously, and appeared
at the appointed place, primed with Dor
rowed arguments and bristling with good
/ points. Lawyer Brown was the first
/ speaker, and his opening sentence was
drowned amid applause. As he proceeded
the enthusiasm of his auditors grew
with each sentence. His peroration wa:
followed breathlessly, and when he fin
ished the meeting was standing on tho
chairs and benches, yelling itself hoRrse

Be not the first by whom the new are tried,

such as whose standing is dependent

the cutaway and the sack. The sack is
best ADAPTED for business. The cutaway
may be worn day or evening, the double
breasted frock is most suitable for walk

for evening wear, except at parties, or
4 among certain fashionable men OF large
I cities, who wear dress suits invariably
after 6 o'clock. The plates herewith are
taken from The New York ClOthier and
Furnisher, which periodical thus more
infinitely describes these garments:
"The proper business coat for fall and

should be made a note Of. The cutaway
