matter of detail the new fashions are
wholly unlike those of year ago.
Radical changes are not made sudden
ly. Character is everything in clothes.
The lengths for this spring are differ
ent from those of last year. and there
is divergence also in the lines OF cut
ting. One of the most pronounced
effects is the straight, double breasted
sack coat, which promises to be a ia
vorite with swell dressers The ma
terial for the coat is, as n rule, cheviot,
in plain color, such as black blue,
electric gray, and other quiet shades.
The lapels are wide and Ioll low, and
may be faced with silk or not, as the
wearer elects. The coat is worn closed
by three buttons.
A double-breasted vest of the same
material as the coat may be selected,
or single-breasted vest. or one of fancy
material single or double breasted. ac-
cording TO taste. The trousers are of
medium width, and may have mill
tary stripe of Xix down the seam if de-
sired. There is wide play COR the ex-
ercise of individual taste in that re-
gard. Another elegant design is the
straight-front sack suit In striped
cheviot. There is no rule as TO the ex-
act pattern or color of the fabric, blue
however, being in the lead. The fronts
of the coat are slightly rounded at the
bottom, and the lapels are of medium
fullness. A double row of stitching
runs along the edges of the coat, and
the bottoms of the sleeves are stitched
to match. The pockets are all of the
patch order. The trousers, owing 10
the lightness of the material, are full
Next IN order as a fashionable fad, es-
pecially for young men, is the oue-but-
ton cutaway sack suit. a stylish ma
terial Is q plaid cheviot. either quiet or
loud In pattern, according to the whim
of the man who wears it. The coat
opens low, with low vest, aud the
trousers are of generous dimensions,
but not baggy. The days of baggy
trousers, by the way, are past,
if not forever, at least for some
time to come. The fronts of the
coat are we'll cut away, and are
rounded at the bottom. The breast
pocket is finished with welt.
but the side pockets have flaps, which
are always TO be worn on the outside
The vest to go with this suit should
have a notched collar and should open
from fourteen 10 fifteen inches. 1t
should also have five buttons. For
men of a sporting turn and for roliti-
clans, the suit most appropriate, and
one which the fashion designers have
brought into a high state of perfection
this spring, Is the singlebreasted frock,
or Prince Albert 1t is fashioned on
graceful lines, and for man of impos-
ing physique is one of the most becom-
ing imaginable. The coat is essentially
patterned after the double-breasted
Prince Albert, but is somewhat shorter.
The material of the suit should be OF
fancy worsted, mainly in light colors,
gray or cream being preferable. The
collar of the coat is full and rolls low.
in order to allow ample sway to the
vest, which has a low opening Unlike
the double breasted Prince Albert coat,
this one has an outside pocket, which

THREE NEW SUITS.

stitched, narrow. The vest Is supposed
TO be notched and TO close with five but
tons.
What manner of oyercoat should n
man wear this season? The creators
of fashion haven't been SO fastidious In
this respect as in others, and, in a gen
eral way, it NAV be said that the spring
overcoat of last wear is appropriate
now. The fyfront oversack or Ches-
teriield is the common favoIite. Soft
worsteds are ne correct material, and
the length for the average man Is from
thirty-six to thirty inches. There
is one important change, however.
AS matter OF course the three-but
ton cutaway will still be the popular
garment, and will lead all others this
season, rs for several in the past.
For half-dress and for general style.
well-mado appearance. they can not be
surpassed. The favorite shade will be
blue gray, with either fiat braided
edge or narrow stitching. The coat may
be worn with vest of the same ma
terial, or as fancy as the wearer de-
sires and the trousers should be just
trifle narrower than last year, with the
suspicion of a spring at the bottom.
This makes about as swell an outfit as
Is in the market.
A very stylish conceit for men of
middle age, especially for those of tall
and slender build, is the two-button
cutaway morning suit. AS the name
implies, the coat closes with two but
tons, set wide apart, and the whole
effect is most graceful. Cheviots, in
any chaste pattern, is the proper ma
teiial for the coat. The vest may be
of fancy goods, and the trousers in
checks, plaids, or stripes, as preferred.
For trousers, this season, the patterns
run almost entirely to plaids and
stripes, the latter being the most ia
vored When the entire suit is cut
from the same piece, soft plaids are in
good grace, but by all odds the most
popular effect is diagonal of rather
broad vale For vests there is an end
less variety of fancy designs in light
materials. such as silk pique, linen,
mohair, and so on.

TO impossible to get any of the drug
through the lines. The demand be-
came so great that orders were sent
out TO the different commands TO Sc

men of nerve, ingenuity, and patriot
ism to the Southern cause who could
be depended upon under the most crit

purchase large quantities of the drug,

Among the men selected for this
hazardous duty was young student
of medicine, who has since that time
become prominent as one of the best
physicians of the country.
Dr. jane Guthrie was born in Poca-
hontas County Virginia, now West
Virginia, and when the war broke ont

assistant surgeon to General Kirby

provided by the Confederate Govern
ment to purchase the drug. Days were
spent about the hospitals Ivy the young
student and acquaintance made with
the officials. until after the lapse of a
few weeks he became to all intents and
appearance regular assistant of the
surgeons.
No suspicion of the character of his
business was ever created, and it was
not long before young Guthrie was
able to go about the city purchasing
medicines and drugs ostensibly for use
at the hospitals where so many Union
soldiers lay wounded and sick. Day

to justify trip into the Southern
lines. Meanwhile he had made the
acquaintance OF a tinsmith of un-
doubted Southern sympathy TO whom
he impaired his secret. One night
this tinsmith and the young doctor col
lected all the quinine he had purchased
and sealed 1t up in long hollow tubes
of tin, which were soldered perfectly

inches In diameter and three or four
feet long, were covered with the bark

tered vein of ore of unusual

is brittle, fine grained. has dark
lustre and very dark color. 1t
was thought to be worthless and
several tons of it were thrown

was sent to J. A. Mckenzie at
Darwin for assay. Mr.. McKensie
replied that he found the ore con-
tanned 772.3O ounces of silver per
