Stylish Travelling Cloaks.

Most of the new travelling cloaks are
stylish, handsome garments. Others,
from their extreme delicacy of tint and
fabric, look as if designed merely for
novel show. Among the really useful
models exhibited lately were those of
reseda, dove-gray and marquise-brown
mohair velyet-trimmed, with deep v
yokes of the same. Another model,
made of very fine fawn-colored Bengal
inc, had princesse back and fronts in
straight circular form; and still another,
with Newmarket back and Connemara
'front.' was made of pale chestnut-colored
alpaca. A sort of trellis pattern in
shades of brown silk formed delicate
woven stripe down the fronts, on the
collar and sleeves and edges OF the
monks hood. This wrap, while stylish,
would certainly prove effective against
dust and cinders, and the color would
not show very quickly any clinging
marks of the same, as thorough shak-
ing after long journey would quickly
remove every particle which had adj
hered to tn. Y. Evening Post

TO CUT DOWN APPROPRIATIONS,
Mr.. Sayers Says That Will BE the Demo-
cratic Duty In the Next COnuress


Representative Sayers, who is the democratic
expert on the appropriations committee, where
he holds about the same position that Mr.
Randall used to hold, is concerned about
the enormous obligations which have been in
CURED under this congress and believes that
the democrats will have heavy burden to
bear in the Fifty-second Congress, coming as
legacy from this.
The democrats will. he SAYS. have to practice
the most rigid economy, cutting down expendi-
lures where ever they can. In the present con-
dition Of the government funds he finds
fulfllment Of his predictions made
early last session. He saws that the democrats
have great responsibility to carry with their
victory, and that they will have to exer-
else great wisdom in their manage
ment Of affairs in the next House.
He thinks the Farmers Alliance will be merged
in the democratic party because the farmers
can get more relief through that party.
There must be no partisan legis-
lation and no attempt at partisan
management in the House. The duty OF the
democrats will be, he saws, to cut down
appropriations as low as possible;
to pass bill for the free coinage
Of silver promptly and pass tariff bill which
will give the relief the people demand. Put
these things right at the republican Senate
he says, and then see what they will do.
If convention were held now, he thinks, Mr..
Cleveland would be nominated for the presi-
dency by the democrats. He can't Judge of
what max happen in two years. The south 10
