Feminine Dress Novelties That Seem

Feminine Dress Novelties That Seem to
he in Great Demand.
A great number of handsome gray
dresses appear upon the promenade.
Some are richly embroidered with steel
and silver, with the trimming repeated
on the bonnet and sunshade. Others
are relieved with white. Gray looks its
coolest when combined with white.
For special full-dress occasion is
made a black and white costume OF
rather unique style. The skirt is en-
tirely of white silk, trimmed with
white silk embroideries. 1t has last
century coat of black velvet, lined with
white brocade. The coat fastens below
the chest with a double clasp of jet, but
opens broadly below il, showing jabot
and continental frill of fine old Elem
ish lace Accompanying this costume
is a very odd-lOoking three-cornered
hat, which, though handsomely made,
looks appropriate only for a fancy-dress
party.
Tuscan-yellow straw passementerie
bands trim some of the silk and etamine
toilets from Partisan workrooms.
Some of the light India cashmere
toilets are combined with striped silks
that are figured with tiny polka-dots
in white or cOlors. These dresses are
made with graceful princesse backs
and iacket-fronts of the cashmere, with
sleeves, fronts and blouse vests of the
striped silk Reseda and cream -colored
striped silks in these patterns are pref
ty, with polka-dots of English rose.
The handsome cotton dresses that are
worn for walks and drives in the park
will be popularity worn all day in the
country, and even at fashionable water
ing-places. They are, in many cases, as
rich and dainty in effect, and made up
with as much care and at as much ex-
pense, as a summer silk. and thus take
far higher rank than formerly on dress
parade Ecru batiste is very popular
material this year, the fabric being
barred. striped, lowered or bordered.
The bodices are made in ways both sim
pie and elaborate, but all the skirts
hang full over silk pesticoats of :he
same shade. the batiste dresses having
no foundation skirts. \. Evening

Extinction of a Queer Sect.

The Independent tells of the extinc-
ton of small sect known as Sande-
mauians. Their founder was a Scotch
man, ROBBERS Sandman, who came TO
the United States in 1894, and founded
a few weak congregations in Connecti-
cut and Massachusetts,. Among their
peculiarities was large circular table
which occupied nearly half the space of
their church, about which they sat TO
study the Bible; they observed the COM
munion and held a love feast between
services every Sabbath; washed each
others feet; required two elders at
least for every church; gave the kiss of
charity on receiving members; abstained
from blood and things strangled, and
held all their goods at the service of
each other. They seem TO have been
content with mere witness bearing. 1"
and have dwindled away until only four
members are left.
