FASHION NOTES.

English walking jackets are much
longer than ever before.
Straight undraped skirts will largely
prevail for summer dresses.
Military styles of decoration will oon-
inue popular for youthful stree. Jack
cts.
Triple capes will continue favorites I'M
Ill late in the season-usually matching
:he dress.
Bracelets in pairs are rcappcaring, but
the pair are worn on the same arm and
are shall in design.
Recently imported French tea gowns
show exquisite New combinations rather
than decided changes of style.
Black serges with checked borders,
black on black, are likely to be favored
the coming season by ladies in mourning.
Pearls are once again extremely popu-
lar, and pofusjon of them is allowable,
while with diamonds such is not the
case.
White cloth gowns, made In dressy
styles and braided with gold and silver,
are now in favor for ball dresses here and
abroad.
A new and yet an economical fad is to
wear jaunty cutaway coat in the house
with any kind of skirt that will harmo-
nize in colors.
The prominent features in millinery
this season are open straws for small
oonncts, delicate colors, fine flowers,
with moderate use of tinsel.
Fashion has gone back to the dressing
able of century ago, and the result Is
low couture, tue hair being arranged
low on the FOREHEAD and concealing the
ears.
A garment now the rage abroad is the
''polonaise Parisienne" 1t is long.
tight fitting redingote, made OF checked
cloth and trimmed with bands of ribbon
velvet.
Bustles, gum, accordion skirts, chate.
laine silver, starched petticoats, buttons,
jewelry and colors are few of the things
that have been retired from the public
street.
Upon some of the sheer wooden fabrics
known as "clairette" are seen some
beautiful silk borderings which are
easily mistaken for the finest hand EN-.
broidery.
Watches are not carried. Some leader
Of fashion read n paper not long ago in
m uptown drawing-room on the slavery
Of time, and presto! chatelaine and cor
sage stem-windcrs vanished.
The butterfly bodice is quite the latest
,onceit, and consists of single large
butterfly in front, made of passcnenterie
and beads. A small butterfly decorates
each shoulder and larger ones embellish
the skirt.
Mess coats and Eaton jackets of navy
blue or scarlet cloth with petticoats of
irish poplin edged with fox, while de-
signed for hunting and coaching parties,
will be seen along the local drives about
Easter time.
Large low-crowned wide brimmed
hats with long, broad plumcs and larger
bonnets with ostrich tips will be worn
for street wear, but tiny toaues, more
ornate than ever, for the theatre, recep I.
lions and visits OF high ceremony.
Gloves very deliberately trimmed come
from Paris for evening wear. Long
light Suede gloves have a quilting of
Did lace round, and nre embroidered
lear the elbow in silk and gold thread,
with either monogram or armorial bear

YOUTH NEGLECTED.
A Sad Case Related to Police Judge
Buckley.

A Sad Case Related to Police Judge
Buckley.
Johnny Huber, the lad who stole box
of baking powder from McMorrey's grocery
store, on Third street, last week, pleaded
guilty to petty larceny in the Police Court
yesterday.
In the course of the examination sad
state of affairs regarding the boys life was
brought to light His father and mother
have not lived together for same time. it
appeared, having been divorced. The boy
lived with the mother until she married
again, and was during that time said to be
model lad. The new father, or rather
stepfather, did not take 3 fancy to the little
fellow, however, and would not permit him
to live with his mother. The boy was
forced to leave home. He then went to his
own father, who was employed on ranch,
and was put to work in the field. He re-
ceived little or no education, and having
no one to look after him, naturally drifted
into bad ways. Eventually he left the
ranch and came to Sacramento. where he
got into his present trouble.
Judge Buckley, upon learning these facts,
evinced a disposition not to punish the boy,
provided his parents would do something
in his behalf
The boys mother, who was in Court,
stated that, while she could not take the
little fellow home with her, for fear of the
stepfather, she would see that he was cared
for.
Upon this the Judge postponed the pass
ing of Judgment upon the lad indefinitely,
after lecturiDg him for some time and ad-
vising him to reform.

STORE BURGLARIzED.
House-Breakers Who are Accompanied
by Youthful Jack Sheppard.

House-Breakers Who are Accompanied
by Youthful Jack Sheppard.
Early yesterday morning the police were
notified that burglary had been commit
ted in the hardware store of L. P. Gilman,
on the south side of street, between Fifth
and Sixth. A RECORD UNION reporter, with
the officials examined the premises about
9A.M.
The burglary had been committed some
time during the night of Saturday or Sun
day. When Mr.. Gilman opened his store
yesterday morning, he saw the contents of
several showcases scattered over the floor
and Immediately began an investigation.
The back door of the store was unlocked
and partially opened.
He took an inventory of the stock in the
show cases and found that thirty cases of
pocket cutlery were missing as was also
two pistols and lot of cartridges from the
show window. The store had been thor
ougbly ransacked for valuables, and many
other articles besides those enumerated are
missing.
There was over one hundred packages of
cutlery ia the showcases, but the thieves
showed rare discriminating Judgment,
taking only full packages and the knives of
the very best quality, the wholesale price
of some of which was $50 per dozen. The
burglars evidently expect TO have to carve
their way through the world, as they made
clean sweep of all the sheath knives and
took enough cartridges to furnish ammuni-
| ton for regiment.
Everything seems to indicate that the
burglary was committed by youths. If
they were ullgrown burglars then they
had with them a small bow They had dug
| out the brick at the bottom of the iron door
to the basement and succeeded in unlock
| ing the door.
Once in the basement they tried to lift
| the trap door at the head of the stairway
| leading into the store, but in this they were
unsuccessful. They found loose board in
| the floor at the rear end of the store, which
was forced from its position with crow
bar. This made an opening in the floor
| about ten inches wide, through which they
! had pushed a small boy. The boy once
inside the store found no difficulty in
| throwing the iron bar which locked the
| iron door at the rear end of the store,
through which the gang was admitted.
The police found several articles left by
the burglars which will form an excellent
| clue to their detection. From the foot
prints in the back yard there seems not to
| have been less than three and possibly FIVE
engaged in the burglary.
A description of the stolen property has
| been obtained and officials throughout the
State notified, aud there is not the least
doubt but that the juvenile would-be bad
men will he eaptured

the order upon which Mrs. Smith obtained
the groceries.
Mr.. Raffetto then took the witness-stand,
related how Mrs. Smith came into his
place last month and presented the order
for the goods. The order read as follows ::
December 16 =.
Please let the bearer have what she wants,
and charge the same to me. R. S. CAREY.
Mr.. Raffetto stated thst on the following
day he presented the order and his bill for
$40 20 to Mr.. Carey, and the latter repudi-
ated it, declaring it TO be a forgery.
When the order was offered in evidence
the defense objected to it, on the ground
that ii had not been shown to be an order
within the meaning of the law. 1t was
claimed that as there existed no business
relationship between Messrs. Carey and
Raffetto, nor any arrangement by which
either should honor the orders of the other,
as the law requires, this document could
not be termed an order, and therefore, ad-
hitting that it was not genuine, it was not
forged order.
The Court overruled the defense how
ever, and said it was very plain that the
paper was an order.
Some other unimportant testimony was
taken, after which Court adjourned in or
der that Chief Lees deposition might be
obtained. The case will be resumed to-

billo Parlor has also sent in contribution

under the auspices of the Native Sons and
Native Daughters of this city, netted the
fund upwards of $500. The committees
appointed to make collections in this city
are soon to go out and make thorough
canvass. Sacramento people should take a
lively interest in this matter, as the fort,
when restored, will be great attraction to
strangers.
