Some Pretty Ball Dresses.
LFrom the London Standard

One of the prettiest frocks was also one of the simplest, being composed of pale blue sllk, covered with overskirt of coffee colored lace, with touches of the blue com- ing to the surface here and there. A very good gown was in gobelin blue silk, with pointed fronts slightly loose, and showing pink silk Things and tight pink bodice un- derneath Two dancers had long sleeves that almost touched the floor. These square shaped, medisval things certainly grace tul when on slight figure, but in the dance they twlrl and become aggressive. pret- ty American bride, ill white satin and dia- monds, looked so happy and girlishly mer- ry that 1t was pleasure to watch her
 A very pretty dress was white silk striped at wide intervals with pale fawn velvet and trimmed with shrimp pink and pale green. A rather similar gown was in plain white silk, with a ruche, in the two colors above named, round the edge of the skirt in front. Twists of the green and pink round the arms and bodice gave quite an Oriental effect to the dress, and a pocket on the right side of the skirt had a wide flap of the green and narrow one of the pink fall ing over it.
 A girl in brightest turquoise blue had toned down the vivid color very artistically by means of white vest, white sash fold- ed below the bodice and touches of white elsewhere. A remarkable dress, by no means unbecoming, consisted ot scarlet tulle, with black moire sash and black aigrette in the hair. I never liked black in the hair be- fore, but 1t certainly was successful in this instance

SLY "WHITE CAPs,,
RurR aNoforioua Roaa Home and

Burn a Notorious Road House and by
 a Deeply Laid Plot ENectuaIly Com
 ceal the Identity of the Incendiaries.
 FALL. RIVER, Mass. Feb. 28.-A road house which has been known for years as the "Sue Driving place,' situated on the Stafford road a short distance from this city, was burned "white caps" The house, which has been a notorious resort for a low class of people, was vacated few months ago but had just been reftted and furnished by Fall River man, who was soon to take possession. The only occupant was man named Slade Sim mons, who looked out for the place and who slept in building detached from the main house. About midnight he was aroused by a knock on the door, and strange voice informed him that the house was on fire and that he had better attend to 1t. No one came to his assistance and the building was soon in ruins. Investigation to-day showed that the fire was unquestiona- bly, of incendiary origin. It was stated that the white-caps held a meeting and decided that in the interest of morality it WAS their duty to destroy the building in the speediest manner possible. 4 committee was delegated to do the work and as each one was 8 little tlmlu apou6 committing aFsou U mover plan was devised. Each man swore that if it fell to his lot to be one of the committee he would not breathe word of it to living soul and would not betray the names of his companions. The committee was to consist of three. Slips of paper of the number of those present were placed in hat and all were blanks except three. Upon these three it was written that the holder was to be at place named at certain hour last night, where he would meet two others of the band with whom he was to proceed to the Driving house and complete the work of destruc- ton.
 This plan was carried out and it is be- lieved that the identity of the incendiaries will be effectually concealed.

l A Travelling salesman Kills His Wife and Then Commits Suicide-The Couple Had Been Married Hut One Xear-The Motive of she Deed is a Mystery.
 BosToN, Feb 2S.-Edward Colburn, a trav-
 cling salesman twenty-three years old, shot
 and killed his wife, Lizzie, tonight at their
 home, No. 253 Highland street, Roxbury, and
 then made an attempt, which will probably
 prove successful, to take his own life It
 was at first thought the murdered woman
 had committed suicide although no weapon
 was found on the premises with which the deed could have been committed. While her death was being investigated by the police word was received that a man had attempt cd suicide by shooting at the Madison Park Hotel, in Madison Park, and it was soon as- certained that the would be suicide was none other than Colburn. The latter shot himself twice in the face, and the physicians assert that he can live but few hours at the most. Persons who reside in the Colburn house state that Co1burn was with his wife this evening just before she was found, but that they heard no quarrel, and, in fact, that DO trouble was known to exist between them
 It is said that Mrs. Colburn started to 90 ont upon the street to-day in a calico wrap per and was prevented by her husband, but whether this incident has any bearing upon the crime is not known. The couple have been married about year, and Mrs. Colburn was well advanced ia pregnancy.
 A later dispatch says Colburn died at the hospital about midnight. AZ yet noth- ing is known as to the motive for the deed. Mrs. Colburn's parents, who also live on street, are Catholics, while Colburn was Protestant. Before her marriage Mrs. Colburn was a waiter-girl in 8 Fremont street restaurant and she is given a good reputation by all who knew her. It appears that Colburn went to the Madison Park Hotel after leaving his home, made his way to the roof and there attempted to take his own fife. A revolver was found by his side with three chambers empty. In his pocket was found l q piece of newspaper upon which was writ l ten in one place the words "this is the out- l come of villains life. May it be warning l to others" l
 In another place was written:
 "Oh, good people do not lay any blame on l my godly mother"

Roasting Meat.

Seeing directions for roasting meat in
a recent number of your valuable paper,
| felt constrained to give my modus oper-
andi, since | think it better than the one
given. rub over the meat the requisite
amount of salt and put it into a shallow
kettle-the kind which most housewives
now use for frying cakes-covcring with
an inverted pie-tin, and put at once into
a very hot oven; the heat will then pre-
serve the juices inside the meat After
baking fast for ten or fifteen minutes,
lower the temperature Of the oven some
what. When partially cooked take from
the oven and turn over the meat, cover
ing close as before. In this process the
meat bastes ITSELF since steam is gen
Grated, and there is never any danger of
burning, or of it's being overdone. This
| suppose is upon the principle ofthe pat
ent bakers. Do not put drop of water
on the meat when ready for the oven.
When baked, however, and removed from
the kettle, water and -four can then be
added which will supply the desired gravy.
Try this way, and you will never again
bake meat in an open pan.-Christian at
Work.
