PRINCESSE COSTUMES.
Cloth, Matolasse and Velvet the Materials
Most In Favor.

Most in Favor.
Long closely-ftted coats. with prin-
cesse breadths closed to the foot Of the
skirt instead of tapping tail breadths,
form part of autumn and winter cos
tunes. They are made Of cloth, mate
lasse or velvet, and are worn over a
skirt of contrasting material, such as
silk, moire or velvet The styles of
the Directory are given to these great
coats by vests, cravats and jabOted
frills on the waist, but the large revers
have been so generally used that lovers
of novelty have abandoned them, pre-
fcrring straight or indented sides to
their bodice fronts, or else tongue-like
straps that are set about irregularly on
the bodice. For instance, long coat
of green velvet is Of princesse breadths
entire, the fronts tapping to the left at
the waist line, falling open below to
show the front breadth OF skirt of
green bengaline, which is cut out in
three deep scollops at the foot, and
edged with wide passementerie that
ends in lnotted fringe. Taper
ing bands of passcmenterie with
out fringe are up the sides of the coat
front, and there is Il soft gathered
plastron of the bengaline above the
waist line Another coat OF blue and
brown brocade, as heavy as matelasse
silk, has blue velvet set down the entire
fronts and Tapped to the left, where it
is fastened just below the waist by
three large crocheted buttons; the
skirt under this coat is merely q silk
foundation skirt with a wide-plaited
founce of blue velvet at foot The
large full wrinkled sleeves are of blue
velvet, and a band Of brown fur trims
the neck and the wrists. A brown
cloth, with embroidered black border
in straight rows with points above, is
made up with long princesse coat back
breadths, while the sides and front are
cut off at the waist line to disclose a
straight skirt Of the brown cloth with
the black border across the foot. The
front of the waist opens over vest of
black bengaliue tucked lengthwise in
very fine tucks that stand out like
cords; black embroidered bands edge
the fronts of the waists next this vest;
the sleeves are full, with deep close
cuffs of the black embroidery. The
foundation skirt OF this and OF similar
dresses is of alpaca, with two very
short steels placed low in the back Il
support the heavy cloth coat, but moi
to extend it. -Harper's Bazaar.

There is well-known dog in BARGE
Iona. He loves music and goes regu-
larly to the opera of his own accord,
sits upstairs, applauds with the rest
of the auditors at the end if the sing
ing is good, by joyous banks, but is
very angry at interruption in the mid
die of a piece. If there is no opera
any evening he goes off soberly to the
opera comique, but is never content
with second best when he can have
the best. This is Il good story, though
true, but here is another as true, yet
still better: An Austrian banker late
ly went to Vienna on business. He ar
rived in the evening, travelling with a
large dog. The two put up at hotel,
and next morning the gentleman went
out, bidding care to be taken that his
dog did not stray from the house. The
chambermaid went to make up the
bankers room. Bruno was very pleased
to see her. wagged his huge tail, licked
her hand, and made friends thorough
ly, until, her business being done, she
was about to leave. Not So Bruno
calmly stretched himself full length
before the door. He explained, as
perfectly as possible, that che knew
his duty" No one should leave his
masters room in his absence. When
the girl tried to pull the door open
sufficiently for her to slip out ne
growled, showed his teeth, and finally
tried them on her legs. The woman's
screams brought another maid, and
yet another, and then in succession
all the walters. Bruno was glad to let
them all in, but he allowed no one out.
The room became pretty we'll crowded
and every bell in the house meantime
rang, while the walls echoed cries Of
waiter! waiter" Finally, the lady
who kept the hotel appeared and
pushed her way irately into the room,
asking angrily as she walked in what
sort of u picnic they were all holding
here. Bruno let her in, too, but not
out again-oh, no! When the lady's
husband appeared she called to him
loudly for Heavens sake to keep out
side, to send messengers securing the
city for the banker, and meantime to
endeavor to pacify the angry custo-
mers downstairs,

MONKEY AND BULLDOG.

How Venerable Similar Punished an

Some species Of the monkey family
are held sacred by the Hindoos, with
the result that the naturally mischiev-
GUS animals become extremely famil-
lar; so familiar, indeed, as to be real
ly nuisance, at least in the eyes Of
European residents The author of
'Thirty-eight Years in India" gives
an amusing account of an experience
OF his dog with one Of these sacred
Observation-Disclosures.
The monkey took up his position day
after day on the lower branch OF a
large mango-tree, and there he re-
manned, Indifferent to all threats and
intimidation; and this led to a deli
cious result.

my unparalleled bulldog When the
nuisance Of these sacred monkeys be-
gan to be annoying, Toby interested
himself in making occasional raids
upon the intruders, but with little ef-
feet, and he seemed quite distressed by
his failures.
One day | was standing with the dog
by my side, when we observed our de-
faint old friend take his seat us usual
on the branch. AS he allowed his tail

seemed to understand. crouched, and
very gradually approached the tree
The monkey remained immovable
and apparently unconcerned, and the
tail continued to hang temptingly
down.
Suddenly Toby made rush for the
tail. Every thing bespoke q triumph
long delayed.
Alas! alas! The venerable monkey
never moved, but as Toby's oper
mouth turned upward to seize at leas
the tail, he quietly, but at the prope
moment lifted itup with his left hant
as II gentleman would raise his. coat
tail to enjoy the fire, and, stoopinl
slightly forward, gave Toby a pleas
ant box on the ear with his right hand
looking at him, as he passed, with calr
and satiricnl indi ffaranoa
More amusing still was the fact tina
after this rehearsal the experiment
was repeated more than once. l ca
still wildly recall the calm, philo
sophical Indifference of the monkey

stoned and yet bafiled Toby, the re
peated rush, the quiet elevation of tn

REM EMsER The BOYS.

the Clouds of Life.
After the hard work is done the
boys should be given few holidays to
engage in such recreations as will suit
their tastes. Farmers should so ar
range their work that after each busy
spell they can afford to take such holi-
days. Fathers should make it a point
to engage these recreations with their
boys, to be companions with them in
their sports, and to be their con-
fidants. Teach them the manliness of
acknowledging wrongdoing. Very
few people do wrong willfully, and If
the parent will divest himself of all
desire to revenge his wounded feel
ings when dealing with the wrongs
his boy has done, and have for the
end in view the leading Of that boy to
govern himself, the success of his un-
dertaking is assured. On the con-
trary If the boy is punished
for every wrong he does, you
teach him to lie and to dis
respect authority. Many well-mean-
ing parents spoil their boys by this
kind of treatment, for they do not
realize that satisfying their own ugly
dispositions and venting their spite on
the child is really what they are doing.
"They know not what they do" The
parent should strive to place himself
in the position Of the boy, and feel with
him and for him The man who is

ON AN ELEPHANT.
How 1t Feels to Ride the Monster FOR tho

How 1t Feels to Ride the Monster for the
First Time.
Having had the good fortune to be
invited by the maharajah, Biz Sham
sir, Prime Minister and guardian to
the young King of Nepal, we leave
Calcutta early in December to join his
shooting party. After II couple of com
fortress nights in the train we reach Il
small terminus, from which Il tive-mile
ride on an elephant lands us in what is
known as the Nepal -terai The ele-
phant on which we ride is a small one,
and is supposed to shake the rider as
little as possible, but to us novices the
shaking is far from being a gentle one.
At word from his 'InahOut' "a Wild
looking creature who sits between the
elephants ears and pricks him with an
iron staff-he goes down on his knees
and one climbs on his back as best he
can, holding on by his tail with both
hands and trying to get footing on his
slippery quarters. At last one manages
to scramble up and one finds ones self
on square cushion almost as slip
perry as an elephants back. The first
time, when the great beast rises on
his fore legs, then on his hind ones, it
is all one can do TO hold on by the
ropes which are fastened to the sides
of the pad; but practice makes per-
| feet and in short time one learns to
adapt ones self to the curious motion.
A good small elephant will shuttle
along easily at the rate of five miles
an hour, climbing steep ravines and
other distractions. SO that the rider
often finds himself hanging on in an
almost perpendicular position. No
animal is so sure-footed as an ele-
phant. He will climb steep banks and
slide down into river-beds with as
much ease as an Irish pony, but he
particularly objects TO bog, and let
no one attempC to ride him over one;
for If he finds himself sinking in his
first impulse is to drag the rider of
and put him under his feet, by way OF
having something to stand nn-a pro
ceeding one would hardly approve Of

BOLD ALLEGATIONS.
SIR Henry James, Charges Against
the ParAcllttes.

the Parhcllttes.
LONDON, November 20.-Continuing
his speech before the Parnell Commission
today, Sir Henry James referred to the
flight of Patrick Egan as a proof of
criminal conduct. He declared thai
there was other proof of his association
with the Phoenix Park murders. He
referred to Byrnes' alleged completely in
the Parnellite party. Abiding to the sup
preston Of the leagues books, he eaid he
did not wish to direct auspision against
Lewis nor make allegations against him.
Still he could not help thinking that that
astute gentleman had been imposed upon
regarding the missing books. If the
commission could have got the books
they would have been found to contain
records showing that Byrnes and other
members of the Parnellite party were
connected in a financial way with the
Invincibles. The defense on this aspect
Of the case is open to the graveet sus-
picion.
Sir Henry briefly touched upon the
forged letters. He declared that every
one connected with the Times was inter-
ested in proving the genuineness of the
letters. Justice Hammer recalled the
suggestions of Sir Charles Russell, that
Mr.. Buckle, editor of the Times, neither
approved nor authorized the publication
of the letters. Sir Henry replied: "Mr.
Buckle does not now and never has de-
sired to stand aloof from his colleagues.
Whatever might he alleged against the
Times its bona fdes in the publication
of the letters could not be questioned.

John Fitzgerald NOt i'm Favor OF
Raising Funds for Mrs. Parnell.
LINCOLN, Neb., November 20.-In an
swer to the question whether the Irish
National League of America was going
to take any public steps to relieve the
alleged straitened circumstances OF Mrs.
Parnell, President John Fitzgerald re.
piled in the negative. He said: 81
think any public movement in that direc-
ton would be indelicste and indecent !;
an insult to the Parnell family and a
slur upon the character of her distin-
guished son. The reported sad condi-
tion OF Mrs. Parnell could not possibly
result from the neglect of her
family. Parnell himself expressed
painful surprise when the intelligence
was conveyed to him, as he had made
ample arrangements to supply her
financial welfare. Some of those who
are urging public subscription for Mrs.
Parnell are men who in their craving for
notoriety have no conception of honor or
decency. But hope the innate delicacy
of the Irish character will prevent the
Irishmen OF America from playing into
the hands of these pretended patriots
Mrs. Parnell's family can and will care
for her wants without uncalled for public
interference"

The Nicaragua Canal.

CHICAGO, November 90. P. Treat,
one OF the largest stockholders in the
Nicaragua canal, now here, SAYS: "I
have just received news from Nicaragua.
The preparatory work on the canal is
being pushed as rapidly as possible. The
first trouble with which we met is the
difficulty in landing ships at Grey
town. We are working with every
energy, and are now building
break water and dock. The con-
tract for the construction of the
canal from the Caribbean sea to Lock
No. l is to be Let in q few days. The
talk of trouble between Nicaragua and
Costa RIGA as likely to endanger the con.
struction OF the canal is all wrong. There
is no trouble between those countries
and the relations between the canal com.
pany and Nicaragua are most cordial"
