She anticipates a hard winter, if we
may Judge by her preference for fur,
and all her ideas run in the groove of
Vandykes. Skirts are simple, and
braided and embroidered half the way
up, and sleeves are comfortably long,
whatever the shape of them may be.
A new form of bodice fastens behind,
and this gives them very girlish
effect Cloaks are very long indeed,
literally from neck to heel, and the
figures so well clad give no indication
of where their waist Is TO be found,
whether under the arm-pits or down
the hips. The new cloaks are TO con-
ceal all that, so the short and thick-set
will have cause to rejoice-out of
doors, but nothing for large checks,
severely cut skirts, with long, unbroken
pleats, sleeves set high on the shoulders,
and of the gigot shape, all favor the
tall, slight elancee figure, in whose be-
half the best efforts of the fashion
creators seem always to be made.
With little skill and management,
the long outdoor cloaks of last year
can be easily converted into dressy
tea gowns for the very severe weather.
The clever home dressmaker can easily
add to these garments, if required,
long, accordion-pleated under-sleeves
of some bright-colored crepe or Pongee
silk, and then add to the cloak deep
flounce or ruching to match the under
sleeves, and the tea-gown is complete.
We have gone back many years for
our fashions this year, and it is only
by turning to the fashion-plates of two
or three years ago that we realize how
entire has been the change. Nova
days, we may turn our last years
cloaks into tea-gowns. for they are
still permitted to express the outline of

her equally stylish baby girl. The
sketch was made from life. The child
had on a white nainsook dress, pink
and white striped stockings and pink
shoes. The house dress of the mother
was made of a fabric composed of mixed
silk and cotton, and therefore lending

pink-legged child reminded me of what
Madame Cornelba, the operate dan

young children do in their artlessness,
we would accomplish more than all our

Am / melting the mothers who are
reading this article TO be frivolous with
the adornment of their children? Then
let me lecture wholesomely for few
inches of space. The wealthy woman
of to-day is a creature of unrest. We
take no time for the consideration of
the domestic affairs and pursuits
which filled our grandmothers' lives.
They had only their husbands, homes
and children to occupy their thoughts
and labors, and so narrowed were their
intellects that they actually gave their
whole minds to these cares. We have
come to the conclusion that, while we
are frittering away our time over house
keeping duties or nursery details, We
are either missing our chances of adj
vancement, social or otherwise, or los
ing ground in the race for distinction,
in which every woman of the century
has entered herself. How can we pos
sibly find time to play the part of wife
and mother as our worthy grand
mothers understood it? And the chill
dren. Well, we dress them prettily,
and have them in to afternoon tea on
our "at home" days. We run in and
kiss them In their cribs before we go
out for the evening. We have them
/ well supplied with toys, and some
times take them for drive. Beyond
this there is no need for us to go, for
have we not capable nurses who are
well paid to attend to their health and
comfort, and governesses TO look to
their manners?
Two sisters, aged 10 and 20, were
out on the promenade few days ago,
and before giving bit of character
istic dialogue it is decidedly worth
while to explain their exhibit of new
fashions To begin with, they wore
Connemara cloaks, such as have come
into great vogue everywhere, and are
likely to be conspicuous throughout
the winter. Such garments may be
made of n great variety of materials,
but the most suitable are plain wooden

fabrics. and indeed many rich women
have them made with exterior plain
hess, and then for luxurious costliness
line them extravagantly with satin or
fur. The older girls gown was made
of brown cloth with velvet girdle,
and her hat was velvet, with ostrich
tips ana gold passementerie. The
child wore a dress of old rose cash
mere, and the same color was in her
cloak and hat, the shade being matched
exactly in all three articles. But her
stockings were contrastingly black,
and singularly conspicuous, too. by
contrast with the bright hue of the
rest of the toilet. But high colors are
permissible to juvenile bellies.
The hats and outer garments to be
worn by little girls this winter are par
ticularly picturesque and novel. The
Tam O'Shanter cap, with a stiff
feather, worn by one of the children in
the engraving is rivalled in becoming
prettiness by the others felt hat with
its black feathers. The Scotch plaid
ulster, with its front of faille fran
caise, represents general revival of
Highland plaids In the current fash
ions. The coat worn by the companion
girl, with its rows of velvet-covered
buttons and its small side pieces, also
of velvet, is good model for that kind
of winter garment.
Fashion does not offer anything very
novel to her adult votaries at present.

Food for the BOYS.

Growing boys, who are, it is need
less to say, always hungry, should not
be allowed to cram themselves with all
sorts of sweets and rich things, but
neither is a meager fare at all advisa-
BILE. The following is the dietary of
one of our better boarding schools /:
Breakfast-Oatmeal, with an abun-
dance of pure milk, bread and butter,
little meat or eggs, but not both.
Lunch-Fruit, rolls, buns, Albert bis
cults, milk, PANIED oysters in season,
or sardines. Dinner-This meal should
be served after study hours. and should
consist of at least four courses. A
light soup, two kinds of meat, potatoes
and another vegetable, salad with
crackers and cheese, and a plain nour-
ishing pudding. If the dinner is
served earlier than five o'clock, we
would suggest wafer with tumbler-
full of milk at eight. As all boys re-
quire fat, and universally dislike fat
meat, leaving it on tleir plates un-
touched, it is well to give them light
suet buildings or similar dishes, with
fats nicely blended throughout.

AN OPEN RUPTURE
Possibility of Serious Complications
Between France and England,

france and England, .
OTTAWA, Ont, S~pecial-Judging from the
reports which are reaching here from Paris,
there appears to be strong reason for be-
lieving that the appeals for protection the
French Canadians have made to France are
likely to be productive of results unlocked
for in political circles in Canada. The
French government. it is understood, has
determined on looking into the question
fully as to how far the terms upon which
Canada was coded to Great Britain by France
have been carried out, and whether there
has been any infringement upon the con-
cessions made to the French-speaking pop
ulation of Canada at the time the tr eaty
was signed. In view of the possible in
PREVENTION of France, which could but
result in serious International compli-
cationsSbetween that republic and Great
Britain. Lord Salisbury has requested to
be furnished with full information, setti ne
forth the questions in dispute between the
Dominion government and the French
Canadian people, the equity Of such de.
mands as may have been set up and what
measures have been taken to adopt them.
The political atmosphere in Canada is any
thlng but reassuring just now and an open
rupture between the two nationalities Ia
not beyond the range of possibility.

CASUALTIES.

An accident occurred to q Chicago North
western freight train in a Chicago suburb.
The monetary loss will be considerable, but
no one was injured.
Two freight trains were badly smashed by
a collision on the Santa Fe railroad twenty
miles east of Newton, Kan. Silas Dean, a
brakeman. died q few hours after of his in
juries. The engineers and 6remen were badly
bruised.
Three magazines containing ten tons OF
nitro glycerine exploded near North Claren-
don, Pa, setting fire to $4,000 barrels of
oil, destroying three oil derricks. No cause
for the explosion is assigned. The loss will
probably reach $4,000.
An open switch caused quite q serious acct
dent on the Winona 4 Southwestern at Wi
mona The train conveying the laborers to
work was turned into a side track against
several loads of steel. The engine was de-
molished and four men were quite severely
injured. They were John Lovinsky, Alex
Jirkey. Jack Lovinsky aud Fred Siebold. All
were more or less cut up and bruised.
Edward Dalton, foreman of the improve
ment gang of the Lake Shore railroad, at
Toledo, Ohio, was engaged in repairing the
skylight in the roof of the old union depot,
and in some manner fell upon an electric
wire on the roof close by. His clothing was
dampened by the DRILLING rain which had
been falling all day, ond was Immediately
Frustrated by the heavy current. He lay

sumed the chewing of gum as has been his
wont during the course of the trial. The
elated air of John Kunze was absent, and
for the first time since his arrest the little
German seemed to fully appreciate
the gravity of his situation, as
he awaited the verdict Of the jury.
ARRIVAL OF THE JURY.
AS the audience was contemplating the
prisoners and commenting upon their
demeanor, the noise of many footsteps was
again suddenly heard without, and a mo-
ment later the twelve men, in whose iudg-
ment reposed the lives ofthe defendants, en-
tered the room, headed by Foreman Clarke.
Every prisoner simultaneously turned
his eyes upon the jurors as if to read In
their impassive features the secret of their
verdict, but there was no outward sign to
give them either hope or fear. 1.-THE clerk

Dom Pedro and the republican authorities
in Brazil have had some correspondence by
cable on the subject OF the settlement upon
the ex-emperor of a large sum of money as O
relying pension or solace. Dom Pedro has
uniformly maintained since his exile that he
would not accept the gratuity that it was at
first reported had been voted him. He has
even spoken Oft with some irritation, He
has adhered to his purpose in the final an

Dom Pedro declines to accept any sum be-
yond that authorized by the laws of Brazil.

The Silcott Investigating Committee
Makes a Report to Congress.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram,
The report of the Silcott select committee
gives a detailed statement of the assets and
liabilities of the office on Dec. S. The
shortage is stated at $40, 7OS.9 8 {. It states
that the committee has not yet made sufi-
cient investigation of the matter of dis
counts and notes. Many notes, the COM
mittee believe, were forged to cover defalca-
ton already existing. 1t also says that the
committee cannot too severely condemn
the manner in which the sergeant-at-a arms
conducted the affairs of his Office. Mr..
Payson offered a resolution continuing the
committee and giving it enlarged powers,
on which a long debate sprung up, after
which a resolution was adopted extending
the powers of the select committee so that
it may report to the house its conclusions
as to the effect of any deficiency of cash in
the Office of the sergeant-at-arms. During
the discussion Mr.. Picker was probably
most interested of all members not actually
taking part in the debate. He was first on
one side of the house then on the other,
and conversing with the various leaders
who were trying to arrange the money mat
ters of the house. Mr.. Picker is interested
in the deposit he had made with. .Silcott.
Representative Carter is of the opinion that
there is a way out of the difficulty. He
tried to introduce a resolution to-day, but
Speaker Reed thought it was time the
house should adjourn and saw only Maj.
Mckinley, who made Unnecessary motion.
Monday Mr.. Carter will introduce his reso-
luton instructing the new sergeant-at-arms
to take charge of all the property formerly
in Leedom's care and make all settlements
with his predecessor.
